#there is also the hamster-looking character

[muletia]

just discovered your tfone pocket spouse au and im OBSESSED🙏🙏

i imagine the bots treating the human almost like a hamster at first. whenever youre just chilling on your couch or having lunch (assuming that sentinel provided you with the most basic of necessities) there will always be at least a small group of bots watching, some fascinated, some awwing at how cute you are just sitting there. whispering among themselves with excitement whenever you happen to look in their direction.

i can also imagine some of them trying to sneak a peek when youre washing yourself. with time they would come to understand that the outer layer of rags on top of your body isnt actually a part of you, only a covering. many of them would become curious about what the "true" you looks like underneath. not necessarily in a pervy way (althought it can quickly turn into something pervy once they learn about the human concept of modesty and decide to chase the poor human with their pesky servos) but in a naive and curious sense.

Honestly, same, I love this AU so much, ughhh. Huge thanks to the anon who came up with this idea, you’re a legend.

As much as I don’t vibe with bots treating humans like pets, in this AU, that’s definitely how it’s going to be at first. Your every single move is closely monitored by dozens of optics that see you as the sweetest creature in the universe, all dreaming of having their very own pocket spouse. Watching you and swooning over your every move will be especially common among the miners, who don’t get much exposure to humans, only if some lucky bot (the main characters, of course) is assigned one. Which, honestly, you could totally use to your advantage if you want to feel like a celebrity. All it takes is a little wave in the direction of a group of miners after noticing their down-bad stares, and suddenly, chaos erupts because oH Primus, the human noticed them, act normal! — right before someone trips over their own pedes or misses the wall entirely while trying to strike a “cool” pose.

Attempts to touch and pick you up will also be a constant thing (assuming the bot who owns the pocket spouse even allows it — like, for example, Elita’s human would be absolutely untouchable, always protected by her). As you mentioned, at first, it’s mostly out of curiosity. The real desire won’t start until someone spreads rumors that humans and Cybertronians are actually compatible enough for interfacing to be possible, because wow, humans have spikes and valves too! This piece of information definitely won’t have drastic consequences among the miners, who are now fantasizing about sexo with someone else’s human and self-servicing at every possible opportunity.

By the way, I can totally see Darkwing, after getting his own pocket spouse, deliberately bringing them to the mining sector just to taunt the poor bots from the lower castes. Just to rub salt in the wound — and, of course, to show off in front of his spouse, proving how strong he is, that he’s so much better than those pathetic, miserable miners. (Nobody knows that Darkwing’s valve is getting absolutely wrecked by his human lmao)

In general, the quality of life for a pocket spouse depends on the caste of the bot they end up with. Cogged!bots working on the surface won’t have such extreme reactions to humans as the miners do. And obviously, Sentinel’s pocket spouse has the best living conditions — they’re showered in gold and diamonds, given the rarest and most expensive gifts, and treated like a celebrity.

But don’t worry, you’re the one holding Sentinel on a leash. And when it comes to berth matters, you can do whatever you want with him <3

Smg3 notebook doodles part 11!

First

Previous

sooooo it's been a while... The Sonic hyperfixation took over but I'M BACK! You can thank the latest episode (find luigi) cuz it gave me so much inspiration for a page idea (actually 2 pages, I'm foreshadowing lmaoooo).

But first here are some doodles I forgot all about so I finished them:

I think I drew the one bellow after Mario teaches parenting?

Smg3 wearing eyeliner 💪🔥💖 (the image above has him with smudged mascara/eyeliner >:3)

And now without further a do, here is the biggest notebook entry so far (TWO WHOLE PAGES 😭)

close ups:

(Smg4's face looks like the pikachu meme lmao, he looks like a hamster 😭) these too characters are idiots and I love them

Full thing:

I think this page is my magnum opus-

Unfinished drawings that I might finish idk:

this page was based on the theory that Smg3 gave Smg4 'the crave cheddar statue' as a gift, before the Mario's plane trip episode, after Boopkins disregarded it in the ceo of rizz episode, replacing that gift with a rock for Miku. The statue was seen in Smg4's luggage along with one of Smg3's bombs, coincidence? I think NOT! 👀

There is also another doodle for Bob's podcast, I might finish that one too one day, I just need to be inspired enough to draw it 😭.

Bonus little thing:

THAT DRAWING IS FROM PART 2 OMG, look how far we've come 😌 now we're on double digits!

Thats all :)

Next (not yet <3)

HIII ADDING ON JAVIER'S! it was posted to twitter recently! huge thank you to OP, 민트초코 !!!

let's translate! line by line, from top to bottom, his text reads:

Javier Asrahan

01.68 / O /186cm / 83kg // birthday, blood type, height, and weight respectively!

Likes: the Frontera family, Kim Suho (// OH MY GOD.), Kim Suho's textbook lullaby, cola-flavored coconut, cool season (good for swordsmanship training), receiving a lot of love letters from ladies, teasing lloyd

Dislikes: Lloyd before Kim Suho's possession, Lloyd (Kim Suho's) song, people that ignore his lord (// arcos), insomnia, losing (in any field), spicy food, breaking promises

end translation! WE WON GUYS WAR IS OVER JAVISUHO IS REAL. KIM SUHO IN JAVIER'S LIKES THAT'S AMAZING THAT'S AMAZING THAT'S AMAZING EVERYONE CHEER EVERYONE CHEER

it's so cute. that's so amazing,,, it all makes sense, why would he like "lloyd frontera" when he knows the person in the body of lloyd is KIM SUHO,,, he sees suho for who he is and likes him for who he is,,, SO CUTE,,,

just all his likes and dislikes,,, so sweet,,, javier you truly are the greatest protagonist ever i love u sm. he doesn't like losing,,, competitive,,, likes teasing lloyd,,,,,,,, so cute,,,, KIM SUHO AND HIS LULLABY IMMMM AAAAHHHH FREAKING OUT!!!! /POS

the height difference of 5 cm mentioned in the novel was also corroborated here! 186 cm, as was concluded from the last post,,, YIPPEE!

a HUGE thank you to fluff (@ milkbreadtoast) for also translating! there were some phrases i was confused on, but their translation really helped clarify things, i referred to theirs a bit! i will be going back to the post on lloyd's and alicia's to correct my translations there too, and to add a couple more notes :3

another note too that i just remembered (since i'm not sure how known this is on tgedtumblr (tgedblr??), tgedtwt actually just found this out very recently) but javier's birthday here 1.26 is actually a birthday he chose,,, basically, someone asked the author about his birthday way before these cards came out, and bk moon had answered that javier didn't know his actual birthday. however, 1.26 was the day he was found by the fronteras, and thus he considers that day his birthday now,,, the start of his new life,,,

so i'm very happy to see it again stated here,,, that's the day his life with the fronteras began ooohghhh im gonna CRY

i'd make a bigger post on it but it's really not that long of a thing so i'll keep it as a note here nod emoji

as one final bonus, we also managed to get a closer look at ppodong's card! shown in a part of a promo video from Taeyang shop:

the linked video shows closeups of the text! from top to bottom, left to right, it reads:

Ppodong -MAMMAL-

Blood Type: C type // not actually sure what type this is, see tl note*

Body Length: 12cm (before transformation) (// he's the tallest of them isn't he,,, cute,,, eldest brother), 10m (after transformation)

Weight: 270g (before transformation), 11t (after transformation)

Disliked Things: cold and hunger, construction schedule delays, Ggoming being free from discipline (// when ggoming gets away with slacking off?), reduced sleep time

Favorite Things: Lloyd, walnut, sunflower seeds, hamster wheel, Javier, Bangul, Hamang, Ggoming, Bibeong, cats hanging around the Frontera Mansion yard, the smell of earth, lying down and taking a nap like a rice cake

end translation! so silly,,, the most hardworking of them i feel like,,, oh ppodong eldest son,,, so cute,,, i think it's amusing that he likes seeing cats in the frontera estate, maybe thats a reference to the novel that i dont know about yet!

* i actually have no idea what type of blood that C looking character refers to,,, i was able to infer bangul's and hamang's based on some brief google searching and context clues - Rh blood's most significant antigen is D, which matches the D character in bangul's, and the H character in hamang's is likely a substitute for A as the H character in korean is read with an A-like sound - but for ppodong's i have no clue! any help with that would be greatly appreciated bowing emoji

that should be all the profile cards now, at least unless (until?) they release a new second set of cards! i hope this was helpful or at least a fun read! any edits i make will be marked with EDIT:, and please let me know if i missed anything!!! byebye now,,, whew final update on these,,,

WAIT SO IF JAVIER'S BDAY IS TODAY THEN WHEN IS LLOYD'S??

i don't think lloyd frontera's birthday has been officially confirmed yet, at least as far as i know! we actually got to find out javier's birthday because someone asked the author, and the author's response got posted, so hopefully someone can ask again about lloyd's!

the only two birthdays that are confirmed (to my knowledge) are suho's which is february 22nd, and javier's which is today, january 26th! though if i'm wrong please do correct me lol

edit: i've been informed that the unknown knight's tged collab lists his birthday as february 22nd, but whether or not this is canon is up to you, take that as you will! i personally will wait til the author / adaptation team clarifies nod emoji

Spoilers for 2.0 and Hanu's prison break

The Watchmaker created Clockie after IPC left Penacony, probably to represent himself. He probably also created the other cartoon characters too, based on real history. Boss Stone obviously represents IPC (there are stories that are supposedly based on real history - so the distrust towards IPC should be ingrained in Penacony's culture. Boss Stone is literally Clockie's main antagonist).

So I've got a crack theory.

Hanu reminds me of our MC - gray hair, yellow eyes, Caelus' hat with feathers and wing-like things from the trailer reminds me of Hanu's hat. One communicates with cool grunts, and the other is mostly a silent protagonist. So he probably represents us? Or, if it's about some old history, is it one of the Nameless Himeko mentioned? What if we are one of these Nameless? Our age and past are unknown, what if we are really old and took part in these events, together with the Watchmaker?

And some dialogues in Hanu's prison break remind me of what's happening right now in the story, with people forming alliances against each other and all. I'm not exactly sure who this bird is supposed to represent though.

#i feel you op i also started initially to read the stories but got busy grinding for events instead 😭 #i also haven't read any of the events not even madguy bc i feel like im gonna miss a lot of context i feel sorry for my boys #although I've recently caught up to ch7 and it made me a stornger more brainrotted madguy fan than before #ppl said it's gonna get more insane later on and im nervous #but so far. the stories are GOOD i highly recommend reading it if you're able to #it's just kamen rider but with extra steps #also to assuage your fear (i hope?) i heard from the grapevines that the change to leon is minimal you can easily miss it (via @chipsncookies)

YES I feel a lot better knowing other people are in the same boat as me! :') as someone who only plays games very casually, the events are fun (and have been a good excuse to get those support stories on characters I was kinda ignoring) but SO distracting -- and they have a connected overarching narrative of their own (make sure you read them in order when you get to them!) so I don't want to skip any. which I guess is to say that my problem is that I'm enjoying the writing too much! how dare they.

overall it definitely has that Kamen Rider tone and feeling I was hoping for and I am VERY pleased with it! I do kinda miss the kitbashy monsters, though otherwise it's basically just Rider But With More Random Scenes of Characters Being Ridiculous At Each Other and that is exactly what I was after. (also exquisite taste, Mad Guys are best guys 🤝)

and as long as I still haven't gotten to episode 13 and can therefore continue to be hilariously naive, let me just say that I know what I'm dreaming of for Leon. he deserves it.

...although I do think it would be VERY funny if they made that whole big "WE WILL BE UPDATING LEON'S SPRITES TO REFLECT STORY CHANGES!!!!" announcement and then it turns out that they just like. hue-shifted his eye color slightly to the right or something. it's not even a big story beat, Leon just decided to try out some color contacts, maybe comb his hair back a little, and we don't have the heart to tell him to stop. :(

Is it too soon to talk about the Tommy and Taylor Kelly parallel(s) we got in this episode??

Because @b-dwolf and I were just talking about the fact that the Buck Tommy kiss is literally paralleling the Buck taylor bathroom hook up in season 2 - down to the song choice and the way Madney are sitting - just without the bathroom! we even got a secondary parallel with Taylor dumping Buck to go to work with Tommy dropping out of the party to go to work.

Trying to get back into drawing so I am opening the floor to y’all. You may request a doodle of any character or ship I usually write or talk about on this blog or you may request something from any of my stories. I cannot guarantee that I will do all or any of them but I need something to work on besides the all consuming grief. You have until whenever I post a new galidraan chapter. Send an ask

More questions on Tegan & Lucky!

What sort of media would Lucky be interested in?

What sort of books and journals are in Tegan's collection?

What bike did Tegan have and what is Lucky's? How did Lucky get his?

What are Tegan's associates doing about Lucky being around instead of him?

Whether for his curiosity of meeting new people and places or distancing himself from Tegan's social circles, would Lucky consider moving somewhere else?

Since Lucky is still legally seen as Tegan, would he get his name changed?

Since Tegan is the king of street racing, would it be fitting that he also has an unbeatable skeeball highscore in every arcade he's been to?

i was going to open this answer by going "well it's your lucky day" but i just made myself cringe with it lol

it is time for boy lore!

What sort of media would Lucky be interested in?

I think he likes weird mixed-media and self-published stuff, honestly. Audio dramas, video essays. Things he can put on while he’s on the road or stretched out watching the clouds. Reading is nice, too, but he focuses best when he's just gotten up and isn't moving yet.

He likes a classic slasher from time to time, too, but only with other people. Corn-syrup blood and cheesy practical effects are just kind of better enjoyed together.

What sort of books and journals are in Tegan's collection?

Make no mistake, Tegan was a NERD. Aeronautical anthologies, astronomy texts, those weird Barnes & Noble historical coffee table selections. Poetry, like a lot of poetry. Tegan's very much a Yeats boy, although he was also fond of Rilke and Rimbaud. There’s also, like, a few dusty language textbooks, the sort that you buy on a kick and never get around to actually studying. And he wrote a lot. Memo pads and leatherbound Walgreens journals, that sort of thing. Crack one of those suckers open and you get a free tongue-in-cheek existential crisis in mechanical pencil, 'cause that's what he had on tap 80% of the time.

What bike did Tegan have and what is Lucky's? How did Lucky get his?

Tegan had a 2012 BMW F800ST! Torquey and balanced and really well cared for. Midnight blue with some subtle yellow and white accents, little bit of a Van Gogh homage (nerd).

Of course, Janus had mixed feelings on the whole racing thing, but he also recognizing that having a motorcycle was an integral part of his brother’s identity, so he arranged for a replacement — a Sprint 1050. They are both sort of sharp in the front, and honestly, like, a bike is a bike. Only thing is that a bike is not a bike, and so while Lucky does get things done with the Sprint, it’s a little bit too finicky for his taste. He ends up trading with another local bike enthusiast for something a little more his style, and that — a Yamaha FJR1300 — ends up being his trademark bike. He gets it done up in his colors and everything. :)

What are Tegan's associates doing about Lucky being around instead of him?

Aside from the fact that he just isn’t around as much as they’re used to, I think that most of his acquaintances are just convinced that Tegan sort of got scared off the scene by the crash. First one of his career, right? And bad enough to take him off the map for months. I think that what strikes them as the strangest is the way that he just doesn’t seem to engage in the racing game at all anymore — he just seems to be a full-time courier, now.

When they ask, though, he’s genial. Maybe a little vague. Something's ever so slightly off about him. It’s weird, but who wouldn’t be? The crash was pretty bad. I’m still sorting everything out. Everyone doing okay? Nothing like an NDE to really mellow someone out. He’s still welcome, though, and sometimes he takes people up on invitations on the town, but the atmosphere’s a little different now that Holloway doesn’t step up and dazzle whole rooms like he used to.

Tegan’s best friend is canny enough and close enough that she knows what Lucky’s deal is — anyway, she’s been busy in the interim with trying to suss out what got him killed in the first place. How is she coping with the recent development that the bestie has been format wiped and now perceives way more and also way less than she is comfortable with? Uh. Really well. Don't ask her any more questions.

Whether for his curiosity of meeting new people and places or distancing himself from Tegan's social circles, would Lucky consider moving somewhere else?

Lucky would love traveling, I can tell you that much. You know those people who will tour from one coast to another with a backpack and their bike? That's right up his alley.

As far as leaving permanently, though, Lucky is a creature of sentiment. He's got ties to the city, inherited though they were, and once he starts making them his own, it'll get that much harder to actually leave it behind.

He is going touring though. Someday.

Since Lucky is still legally seen as Tegan, would he get his name changed?

Maybe after enough time’s passed. Feels disrespectful to immediately start over, you know? I think a part of Lucky seeks to understand who Tegan was, and it might just be sentimentality, but wearing the name feels like a part of that, almost? You wear the name, you read the journals, you find the person still lingering in the apartment, the idle nail-carvings on the end table, the weighted blankets and sleep playlists.

In the end, if he gets too used to it, he might just start telling people that he is Lucky, yeah, but he was named after a brother who passed away. Maybe Tegan would be amused.

Since Tegan is the king of street racing, would it be fitting that he also has an unbeatable skeeball highscore in every arcade he's been to

YES. Is it anywhere near as prestigious? Absolutely not, but it's fun to see the neighborhood teens placing bets to see who can beat him.

Did Tegan have any tattoos? If so, what where they and what meaning did it have to him?

He’s got a simple one stretching horizontally above his shoulder blades, the phases of the moon. He would’ve had more, but he had too many ideas for them and often sketched down concepts in his journals and never actually committed to them. Lots of thought went into maybe getting a line or two from poems he liked inked, but he never got the chance.

If Tegan did have tattoos, would Lucky be interested in getting one as well?

The first tattoo Lucky gets might be for Tegan. Some poem on his bicep or chest. But in you is the presence that / will be, when all the stars are dead, maybe. A lonely impulse of delight / drove to thus tumult in the clouds. That one will take some thought.

Other than that, maybe a spade? Is that too on the nose?

It's my first full-release character, a remake of my first Skyrim character Lilax. And I went Circle of Spores because it looks interesting
