& what if i popped back in here just to add montgomery "lightning" mcqueen

[3000-200-grains-of-salt]

all the Thoughts i have about my ocs and their world. forgive me if i tell this like im vaguely recalling a book i read in 2nd grade but thats just how my ocs are to me.

set in somewhere that doesn't exist (or, maybe it does. idk.) imagine coastal Portugese town had a baby with rural texas, with a dash of The 80s/90s™ thrown in

i want bugs and insects to be the central focus. hence one reason why the texas part of the setting is so important. there are so many damn bugs here its crazy

i want the story to start out with an interesting premise (duh) but also trick the reader about what kind of story its going to be (yk, something lightish, introspective, somewhat cute, mainly standard online comic). by the end its gonna be like. psychological horror

concept: fae, but make them aliens.

im basing this off of 6 characters that have been revamped several times. however i am considering just. deleting one of them because they dont add anything at all. will, however, keep him kind of in my quick grab-bag if i need another character

characters include: - ry, he/him, pan+ace, autistic Brazilian trans guy whos dealing with some (denied) depression - clove, she/her, lesbian, Black, honestly im currently redoing her entire personality so yeah, she messes with the Space Fae™ aaaand now shes turning very quickly into an insect and frantically trying to discover a cure. - erid, they/he, mlm, some kind of eldritch horror creature (but i dont think he used to be this way), has done some morally questionable things mainly for the sake of his younger sibling figure (drumroll please)....... - saturn, aforementioned younger sibling figure, any/all, possibly some kind of deer, maybe even more messed up and powerful than erid, trying xer best <3 - and finally, niki. she/he but will respond to anything also mainly lesbian but would probably date anyone with a good eyeliner game, main love interest for clove. fish girl, pink hair, all that jazz

ideas for an actual plot? None whatsoever.

i want there to be Big Heist/secret society/Shenanigans stuff occuring. possibly a murder plot.

ah who am i kidding, definitely a murder plot.

its about going crazy with your obsession about 'fixing' a part of yourself that most people find gross and weird and terrifying and being horrified because you're turning into something undesirable

but then its also about realizing this was always a part of you, the change was catalyzed by your fear, you were always going to turn out like this, its ok, if you learn to love yourself then others will follow (although, its always so great when others show you the way)

its about going off the deep end!! its about looking at yourself and realizing "oh, shit! i'm kind of caving in to make room for the void growing inside me!" and its about falling in the chasm and seeing whats inside and accepting the dark as part of who you are

its about destroying the voice in your head that screams that you're not useful

Its about Moral Ambiguity. Its about The Greys inbetween Good™ and Bad™. Its about forgiveness. Its about learning that even though the world hates you, the universe loves you.

Most importantly, It's about Gay!!

Thanks for listening, expect nothing more from me on this topic. Good day 👋

do you guys wanna hear about my ocs and the story i just came up with in like 5 minutes
