[thatonecatcat]

she looks pretty!

now draw her naked-

[musubiki]

hi!! just wanted to say that i've been a silent supporter and follower of your works since your conflictingshipping/pkmn days and all i can say is that i adore looking at all of the art and reading all of the lore you've made w/ TCWG, all of your characters are so charming and fun to look at and learn about 😭🤍

THANK YOU FOR STICKING WITH ME ALL THIS TIME OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!! im glad youre still having a good time even though its all oc content now!!!!

(also for all my conflicting-era followers, @kash-phia (kashmimo on twitter) is currently in a conflicting era and her art is hella cute so go check her out if you miss leaf and green @_@)

[secrosss]

fondly remembering hilda as a cute and comfy show is funny bc sometimes you'd see a really pretty screenshot from the show that looks relatively normal and then realize which episode it's from and then remember. The Horrors

[cheemken]

Naliligaw at malayo ang tanaw

Pinipigilan na ang pusong pinipilit ay ikaw

Kung di rin tayo sa huli (if we're not together in the end)

Aawatin ang sarili na makita kang muli (I'll stop myself from seeing you again)

Kung di rin tayo sa huli (if we're not together in the end)

Aawatin ba ang puso kong ibigin ka? (Will I stop my heart from loving you?)

Naliligaw at malayo ang tanaw (my view is lost and distant)

Pinipigilan na ang pusong pinipilit ay ikaw (preventing my heart to keep yearning for you)

Take the translation with a grain of salt I really did try to translate that as best as I possibly could, and I don't trust Google translate enough for it, but like yeah, that's the closest I can get to it

Any other Filipinos out there, feel free to correct me bc yeah, Tagalog isn't my strong suit sorry chdndb hahah

Does the "corporate wants you to point out the difference in these two pictures" meme for verdant wind feleonie and the seadall and yunaka cg

[sm-baby]

I drew my TADC OCs in your Carnival AU

Hope you like the designs

heheh I love it here... my favorite part of seeing OCs for Carnival au is the fun game mechanics yall give them,, as well as the nicknames the characters would give me as well as their titles!1 hehe I wanna see how the characters would react with them

I imagine her fight is kinda similar to Cuphead's Hilda Berg fight with the big moon and stars, AND ALSOOO Grim Matchstick and the clouds! (awwe cainee!! MY BOY NOOO)

SPOT THE DIFFERENCE OKAYYYY I HADN'T THOUGHT OF THAT THATS PRETTY GOOD poor guy got his screen broken X'D ( pomni awwe 🥹 i love how you drew her cute little face)

Is she and Gangle friends 👀 marionette is a good themes for a TADC character tbh.. wait what are they gonna do if they string the player... NOOO WHAT HAPPENS- AM I GONNA DIE- (smiling gangle,,, you draw her so cute awwee,,)

two heADED DOLL!! RED LIGHT GREENLIGHT!! OUGH THATS SO GOOD AND TERRIFYING.. the sever punishment makes me think like she would give the player a disability.. like putting a ball and chain on your ankles

i see traditional attire 👀 perhaps a Japanese kimono or a Korean hakbong? they are giving such asian energy, as traditional asian art includes those themes! anyway :3 rhythm game.. what a cutie

i for some reason i like this little guy's design... its so simple and i love it. he looks like an arts and crafts project kids would make for a Halloween decoration and I LIKE that theme! I imagine he can get very horrific if he found you tho ',:3c ALSO RAGATHA AWWE i see they are also quite the manner fellow! Ragatha and friends!

GOOD JOB!! thats a lot of work! oh my!

[slashingdisneypasta]

I cannot imagine a reader dealing with a house of villains (plus I miss House of Mouse) the utter chaos

Yes, chaos XDD

Things Y/N Has Said in the House of Villains

*Through grit teeth as you continue to just smile and waive* "... hahaha she's cackling... did something funny happen or should we run?"

"Hehehe- put Gaston at Frollo's table."

"-and rule number 6; Do not take your time in the shower. Gaston will yank the door off the hinges, he takes his hair and skin care routine very seriously- "

"Goob please... I beg of you please... please get changed."

P2. *Half an hour after the last announcement* "SMARTASS WEASEL PLEASE COME TAKE HIM."

P3. *An hour later* "WE'RE JUST RELEASING HIM GODDAMNIT."

"Why are there scorch marks on the ceiling again!?"

"Goddamnit Hades we need to work on your anger issues, this is getting out of hand, those were the 37th drapes this week. I liked them, they were purple."

"Jafar's taunting Hades?... Yzma do we have marshmallows still?- Great, you know the drill, stick 'em on the Horned King's head and be sure to set him directly in Hades way."

"So who wants hot cider? I need a headcount. Oh- Hans? ... Well if only there was someone out there who loved you enough to get you some huh? Anyway- "

*Sigh* "... Ursula, you need to stop sexually harassing Hans."

"Don't you dare bring that cauldron in here Your Darkness- that is not a kitchen cauldron, I know what you put in there- "

"Huh... so I just made hot chocolate in Ursula's potion cauldron... slightly concerned for my wellbeing, but this is delicious. Salty."

"OKAY WE NEED TO START LABELLING THE COULDRONS AROUND HERE."

"Why does it smell vaguely of old ham in he- Oh, Horned King. Hi."

"Someone smack him for me."

"Why is Jafar laughing so loudly at FOUR IN THE MORNING!?- "

"Who would you throw off a cliff if you had to?... Frollo?... same."

"... damn he has a good song, though." (Frollo does)

"... yeah, uh, I do the laundry around here... learnt some things, for sure... have you ever put prosthetic skin in the washer on accident?? Its not goo- WHAT! NO JUDGE DOOM! I'M NOT SAYING ANYTHING!!"

"... someone get Tremaine, Lucifer is hunting Ratigan again."

"Silver, just between us... you're my favourite around here."

*Getting a hug from Silver when someone else approaches* "bACK OFF- THIS HUG IS MINE."

"Get your goddamn feet off the table Rourke this is not a barn."

"Oh the hunters are all going on a weekend trip??... How nice, lovely, I hope they have a great time... any chance we can send Frollo with them? Maybe theirs a horrible accident... What? No, I'm just kidding ha ha- "

"NO. NO TRANSFORMATIONS INSIDE. YOU PEOPLE HAVE BROKEN TOO MANY VASES."

"... someone get Maleficent, Diablo is hunting Ratigan again."

"... hey Percy. How bout we put a shrimp on the barbie- OKAY I'M SORRY DONT SHOOT."

"Medusa's name is with an E, Mim's is without- its not that hard!"

"Medusa we've talked about this... Brutus and Nero need to stay outside. Hook will suffer cardiac arrest if he lays eyes on them."

"Oh the oldest here?? Hades, then Mother Go- " *Sees Gothel sharpening her knife nearby* "I don't know really."

"... Why are there so many bugs in he-... ohhhh, someone get me the sewing kit, Oogie has had an accident."

"I told you not to gamble with Oogie... sorry, nu uh, I cant get your belongings back... read the sign sir." *Gestures to a 'no refunds/Oogie keeps whatever he wins off of suckers' sign*

"Sir Hisssss come get the Prince, he's having another tantrummm."

"Psycho, put Ratigan and the razor down this instant."

"Nooooooo no no no wait, do not follow her (The Queen of Hearts) orders, do not behead anyone. I just had the carpet cleaned."

"Okay! So what's the entertainment for tonight? Lets see... Oh Scar! He's gonna... he's doing Hamlet?... odd choice... "

"Wh- ... why is Shan Yu smirking? Its very concerning. I'm concerned. Wh- "

"... Okay Shere Khan. Lets level with each other, here. You hate men, I know, but- I cant have you eating anyone here. So I propose a deal. You don't eat anyone... but I can probably slip you a couple of wait staff under the table. you know, the ones hades has already accidentally charcoaled. just between us."

"Stupid you sweet, summer child... "

"Yes, okay, everyone is to be keeping their guns in the umbrella stand. ... but that does not apply to Sykes. Why?? Because I don't wanna sleep with the fishes, okay? Okay- "

"Oh, King Candy, welcome!- Oh, or Turbo??... which would you prefer?"

"No- no- no, strictly no racing indoors- "

"Alright, put up the Out of Order sign on that bathroom- its Wheezy's now. He's been in there half an hour and just breathing in its direction could give you lung cancer."

"... what- NO, YZMA IS NOT ALLOWED IN THE KITCHEN WITH STRANGE VIALS IN HER HAND, GET HER OUT OF THERE- "

[mirensiart]

also i was thinking about the dragom being some kind of... Raven!Hilda? kind of like that one bird boss in wind waker

like. just hilda being a giant bird and thats the "monster" that the "knight in shining armor" has to defeat

ohmygod if hilda is the dragon and ravio is donkey, does that mean they end up having SIX KIDS LMAO

we can have hilda be a shapeshifter so it’s not that weird, but the hildavio babies having feathers and stuff would be so cute hehe

does that mean zelink has triplets though lol

[beezonia]

Some thoughts ooon… N for a change! 💚

HI NINA!!!

N is one of those characters I adore but don’t talk about a lot (did you know in evolutions he’s voiced by chris hackney who’s dimitri’s English va!)

——

I mean at first you see an innocent kid who grew up surrounded by pokemon, he’s able to understand these pokemon and be at one with them because of this

Then in comes Ghetsis and Plasma, who end up using N’s innocence to mould him into the ideal king for Ghetsis’s beliefs

And just like that he’s used for someone else’s plans, used as a pawn because of someone else’s fucked up ideals and it kills me that N had his innocence, the bond with him and the team he grew up with ripped away

Because Ghetsis decided to use him for his own gain (much like someone else we know)

Now N gets fed this idea that Pokemon and humans need to be split because Ghetsis gives him a team of pokemon that have been hurt by their previous trainers

N only saw the bad side because that’s what Ghetsis wanted him to see and we know Ghetsis was using him as a pawn in his game

AND THIS HURTS BECAUSE THAT POOR BOY FROM A YOUNG AGE WAS USED TO FIT SOMEONE ELSES IDEALS AND IT KILLS ME

——

BUT! He meets Hilda/Hilbert and because of them and their Pokemon N begins to have doubts

(that’s because of their mons thoughts and how much they enjoy being with the protag)

So even if he continues to be on Plasma’s side, the seed of doubt has been planted anyway!

Then you battle him time and time again, he befriends Zekrom/Reshirham and ends up battling the protag and looses

He then tells you about his doubts after Ghetsis has been defeated, he knew when he met the protags pokèmon that something wasn’t right

And then he leaves you with his dragon (a popular headcannon I think, is that Hilda or Hilbert end up going after him)

I LOVE THEIR BOND BTW HOW N GOT TO SEE THE GOOD SIDE OF POKÉMON AND HUMANS LIVING TOGETHER BECAUSE OF HILDA/HILBERT

I really need to write more for them

——

In BW2

He says this

THATS WHAT HE LEARNT FROM THEM!

This is growth, he’s slowly learning that not everyone has the same ideas and that he shouldn’t force them to follow his

HE GROWS, HE LEARNS AND IT MAKES ME SMILE SO MUCH TO SEE HIM ACTUALLY HAPPY WITH HIS TEAM AND ZEKROM/RESHIRHAM

SO MUCH SO HE GIVES THEM UP!!

——

Nina I love him so much and these thoughts are so jumbled but please take them

[littledigits]

If you could have had the Mara return for one more episode, what would you have wanted to be done with them? Seeing them in S3 blew my mind since they didn't even appear in S2 😅.

We wanted to do at least one cameo because a lot of the fans really liked the Marra ! I mean heck, at the time we did season 1 we didnt even think we'd get a season 2. ( and honestly i was surprised we got a 3d season haha )

Theres a lot of things we could explore, i mean..every story isint about the surface level events, its about what the core through line is or exploring different themes and tones to episodes. The first episode with the Marra was about fear, the tone of it was Andys ' nightmare on elm street for kids ' I think if we were to see another Marra episode I think it would be fun to see like..the orgins of the Marra. Thats something I've seen come up in questions about them, ( the original concept was luke saying ' what if night hag, but with teenagers' ). I do think it was touched on a lil in the end of the first season, but the focus wasnt *that* story , it was the black hound and frida/hilda. I think having a story through the lens of becoming a marra, and digging into peer pressure more. Again , the themes are there in the end a lil bit of the first season ,but that wasnt the focus as much as the environment and factors of the episode as well as hildas POV on it. I'd love a story from a point of view WITHIN that group and dealing with the pressure of it - fleshing it out would be really rewarding I think. past that, I'm kind of fine with them just being what they are. A lot of these characters and ideas are jumping off points for stories we can tell so im not so much interested in adding more lore or details, but more how we can use those to strengthen a theme. :)

[hey-its-danny]

Heyyy we sent you an ask a while back and uhh thanks for letting me use your art as a faceclaim that was really cool of you 👍

If you don't want an unsolicited Alfendi rant thats fine deadass we're just hyperfixated on our own source (+ have no outlet) and uhh yeah we have kind of a unique perspective on the whole Alfendi thing since we literally have it as a sub-system in our own system (hi) but you know. We don't uh headcanon it in the same way for lack of a better term? To put a lot of medical nonsense out the way, for a system to be programmed in adulthood (like Alfendi was by Justin (i think that's what his name was idfk anymore)) they need to be predisposed to programming as a child. Basically this comes from a specific type of basically abuse in a way where the person would be in a semi-conscious state where the programming would take place (think how Al was in a coma as justin programmed him basically). Obviously Layton would NOT be out there doing that lets be honest but uhhh @/mystery-room did a fanart of Alfendi as a kid in the context of NWOS and lowk that was genius? Cause likeee if he was in America he could have been idk orphaned ir something and I've always thought his programming would be from a fucked up science experiment or something. Basically cause uh Hilda is an international policewoman or whatever her job was i then thought oh well what if she found Alfendi's old like experiment file and therefore thats how he finds out that system is muchhhhh bigger.

The thing abt programmed systems is that the host (Potty) would be made so he was unaware of the rest, but programming an extra host in would make the original host aware at least of that other alter. The thing abt Placid is that he's triggered to front to cover up the murder which is super typical of programmed systems because yk for example an alter would be programmed to uhh cover up abuse or something. Yeah it's insane, anyways LBMR is accurate and inaccurate at the same time, shits wildin

Anyways feel free to add on or whateverrr you could nuke this ask into next century if you don't wanna I get it. We're always down for discussion, but yeah you're cool, thanks again

hey, super cool of you to send me this btw. im down for alfendi discussion whenever!! i fuck heavily with your reading of his character (ofc keeping in mind that this is also a part of ur system), and yeah! ive seen their posts and im so crazy about nwos era alfendi (thats why i hc him as adopted as a teen, some point after nwos)!!!!

if youre down to hear my thoughts on it, i wish we had gotten a sequel game to establish his brother and also why he was such a nutjob before being brainwashed (joking ofc, but he was like. more intense. yknow. ofc you know we both played the game), as well as a dynamic between layton and al. It is kind of sticky when we start discussing the idea of childhood abuse beyond an abstract trauma from being an orphan, but i dont doubt that would be a suitable backdrop for either further abuse or even just a narrative foundation for explaining away the more intricate details of developing systems (as lbmr is prone to do lol).

Also, i think the idea of at least a hilda focused segment in a hypothetical sequel being used to explore potty's system would be kickass. im so here for that

anyways sorry for my rambling, i appreciate the ask and like. if you ever wanna talk lbmr feel free to dm me xoxo

[emluckyowl]

As promised Thoughts. S3 was pretty amazing tbh. I loved getting introduced to tofoten, which began foreshadowing that this season would focus a lot more on Johanna than previously. Watching Astrid and Johanna reconnect slowly only for it to be broken apart by Astrid's lie. AAAGH. Also the inside of the fairy mound (or the "borderlands" as they later call it) is definitely a level up on spookiness for hilda. It really made their situation feel that much more compelling and dangerous, and I felt real relief when they got dug out. (It's also what makes the failure of the kids and anders to dig hilda out that much more scary(I mean when the mound crumbles??(wait thats too many asides))) The inbetween episodes (3 and 4) were not bad persay, but you can really feel the fact that the season got cut by 6 episodes. It doesn't feel like much time passes between them and more like just a random cutaway. If we got 2 or 3 more episodes I think that would have made these non plot episodes much better. We could have also gotten more louise! The fact that she's introduced in one episode, and apparently added to the friend group is really sad. :( It makes sense, she couldn't have really been involved in the final plot after only being in one episode. But man would it have been so nice to see more of her.

[claitea]

can you tell us more about alto 👉👈

here's the basic rundown on them!

some more things about them though:

i use the day i finish designing an oc as their birthday, so alto's is september 13. they're 23 at the time of bw2

full team is fearow, unfezant, swanna, rufflet and vullaby. they're like 4th-5th gym level kind of strength in battle

somewhat inspired by the time that as a kid i went to this beach, known for having a one-winged pelican around. i never got to see it but i always remembered it. alto's initial partner pokemon was going to be a pelipper, but i did want to give the underappreciated fearow (which i actually really like! a lot more than pelipper haha) a little spotlight. i still kept the one-winged pelipper concept - it's now the logo of the skyline sanctuary visible on alto's second outfit. it lives with the rest of alto's family at the sanctuary as one of the helper pokemon

taught themself how to sing and dance as a kid so they could play with the birds in the sanctuary, but ending up really liking it and they do it as a hobby. you could NOT convince alto to sing or dance in front of other people though. gun to their head they will not

sucks at throwing poke balls but thats what the capture styler's for

afraid of thunderstorms, not in the afraid of loud noises way but because their family are all extremely wary of them. they're dangerous times for bird pokemon so they have to be on guard during them, so even when they're not at the sanctuary, storms put them on edge

alto doesn't battle often, but people who have battled them think they're annoying to fight lmao. when facing wild pokemon as a ranger, their main tactics are dodging and disrupting to get openings to use their styler, and they incorporate those same tactics in their battles

also despite part of why i made alto being that they were going to be paired with n i dont think i explained their whole story here???

between the remains of team plasma that either joined neo team plasma or are making up for their actions in the driftveil safehouse, there's a small number that still fully believe pokemon should be separated from humans for their sake. they operate independently, still convincing some to release pokemon or outright stealing them just like the original plasma. this is one of the reasons some rangers were dispatched to unova to help recover these pokemon

alto gets assigned to capture and calm an ursaring who took its release very badly and is now rampaging through the forest. while searching for it, he runs across n who was busy playing with pansage so deep in the forest he didn't get the evacuation memo. n asks what someone else is doing so far into the woods, alto explains their mission, n volunteers to help, alto thinks thats insane you cant do that and leaves. "i don't need help. i got this"

they don't got this

they end up taking a direct slash, and it would have been worse had n not worried about someone going that far into the forest alone with a dangerous pokemon and went in the same direction. n jumps in, calms the ursaring himself, and drags alto out to get medical help

alto usually takes a while to warm up to new people but on account of n literally saving their life he gets to skip most of the aloof alto phase. they end up great friends, alto admiring n a lot

alto, however, has a very strong sense of justice and never forgives criminals. in particular they hate team plasma because of what they've had to witness firsthand. n is ex-plasma, the ex-King no less. n soon learns about alto's views and knows that he should tell alto the truth soon. its harder then when he told hilda though, he's already such good friends with alto and this aill likely ruin it

he finally ends up telling them about a year after their first meeting. just as he thought, alto's distraught and leaves

over the next month though alto feels like shit over the whole thing. yes they're not sure if they can trust n after he kept that information from them for a year. but n was different to how any of the still malevolent team plasma members were like...?

they happen to get assigned to work with the driftveil safehouse to help them handle some pokemon

surprise asshole n's sisters live there and they've been told all about you

both of them are reluctant to work with alto not just because of what happened with n but because it shows they don't trust anyone at the safehouse. for the sake of professionalism alto promises to put all bias aside and carry out whatever tasks needed of them

working with the safehouse makes them realize that people can change. every ex-plasma member here is genuinely trying their best to atone. alto finally admits to themself that they really screwed up with n and asks anthea and concordia if they can tell n they want to apologize. they slowly patch things up with him from there

[ombrathefurry]

Im curious about the sides/aus

infodump time

firstly, the b side universe is basically just a whole different universe than thadrofinica where I can explore different concepts with my characters in a more modern context

B side sf is a homeless kid that travels across the world, experiencing it first hand and not ever having a home to return to (not that it bothers him)

He mostly travels by foot or by hitching rides on trains, and is a very laid back version of sf if he wasn’t as traumatized

B side loading is a gigantic terrifying behemoth that lives in the woods as a hunter. He’s very food oriented and spends most of his time cooking offerings for draven (who’s now a weather spirit, but still his love interest)

b side loading is significantly more terrifying because he actually takes his job seriously while still letting his unhingedness slip through every now and then, resulting in clean but not necessarily quick kills.

He’s also significantly more mature and optimized for hunting, possessing his projectile gloves which shoot bullets much like cuphead and some actual patience and self control

Pheonix is a biomechanical terror rampaging the land, nothing new other than the fact she now has some upgrades

Reena is a genie that travels around via client to client - one of her rules for her wishes is that you need to pass the bottle on to someone new in order for her wishes to properly come true. She doesn’t really mind being a genie, and also isn’t a very malicious one. Mischievous, yes, but not malicious

The medical crew also has b sides, all of them being in a band that travels around and either plays for free or for charity for those in need

Okay so thats all for the b sides

the c sides live in a universe I describe as the dream realm, so everything is very abstract and strange

every one of these character designs are supposed to explore the abstract and unrealistic versions of my characters where I can just go crazy and not need to have an explanation for it

C side sf is meant to represent the dreams I have where I just. Fly around and explore. He’s like sf if he weren’t traumatized and also older (around 16-17)

C side Reena is a zombie and she is very chill and nice. She wears a mask to not infect others (and she also maintained her intelligence and doesn’t try to eat everyone) she’s meant to vaguely represent the apocalypse dreams I have sometimes

C side Phoenix is a perpetual gory gutsy mess with a whole bunch of things wrong with her and she’s meant to represent my gore dreams (don’t ask unless you really want to know) im quite proud of her design and how visceral and over the top it is and she’s just there to terrorize

C side draven is a swamp monster and he’s meant to be a nod to the character that inspired draven in the first place, Sigurd from Hilda

he doesn’t. Really do much. And doesn’t represent any dreams at the moment so moving on

C side loading is a cyborg who’s built for mobility, representing my rare but absolutely sensational parkour dreams

c side loading mood can be controlled and monitored by the dial and indicator on his chest so it’s easy to keep him under control

C side Andy and Cedric are healers as always, with cedric being a spirit of healing and Andy being his mortal supervisor/guide

but yeah there’s a bunch of other characters in the c side universe that aren’t necessarily aus like sovanna and Alaska

one day I might develop these worlds more but thadrofinica comes first
