#ty prototype

[beanbagbuddies4life]

The dogs from Ty's Pluffies line are pretty great. I was over the moon to recently find pictures of this prototype!

What do you think? This has definitely made me want to hunt for more Pluffies prototypes!

Now, you may be asking "what beanie baby is that? I don't remember ever seeing that one?" Well, that's because you probably haven't, because this isn't a released beanie baby. This is a prototype of a planned beanie baby called the "Picasso bear" that was never actually produced for sale. There is only one of these bears out there, and no one really knows where it is.

Here's a closer look:

TODAY WHILE I WAS WALKING IN TOWN WITH MY MOM, I WENT INTO A SMALL BOOK SHOP AND WAS LOOKING AT SOME TOYS. WHILE THERE I MET SOMEONE WHO WORKS AT THE BEANIE BABIES MARKETING AND DESIGN DEPARTMENT. THEY WERE REALLY NICE AND TOLD ME ABOUT SOME NEW TOYS THEY'RE MAKING IN THE COMPANY, I WAS HAVING FUN TALKING WITH THEM AND EXPRESSING SOME IDEAS FOR DIFFERENT TYPES OF COMFORT OR STRESS DOLLS FOR FIDGETING WITH (LIKE HOW THEY MADE SEQUIN DOLLS)

WE CHATTED FOR A WHILE AND I EXPLAINED HOW IMPORTANT SOME OF THESE TOYS ARE FOR PEOPLE WITH DIFFERENT SENSITIVE ISSUES. MY MOM EVEN ADDING INSITE (2ND HAND) EXPERIENCE OF HOW SHE USE TO GET BEANIE BABIES FOR ME AND MY SIBLINGS WHEN WE WERE TEETHING AS INFANTS. THE PERSON SAID THIS WAS ALL REALLY GOOD INFO AND SAID THEY'D BRING IT UP WITH THE MANUFACTURER.

AFTER THAT THEY GAVE ME 4 PROTOTYPE DOLLS THEY HAD AND IF EVERYTHING GOES WELL GET TO SEE THEM AGAIN WHEN I GO TO MARKET NEXT WEEK, I'M MAKE A PAINTING FOR THEM BASED ON THE DOLLS THEY GAVE ME.

Giraffe Girumble - Preliminary N

Propaganda below (May contain spoilers if you squint)

Giraffe Prototype propaganda:

So, the basis of this show is a group of angels that makes animals for God. Like most designers, they have to make many attempts before they’re successful. Their first attempt at a giraffe is a long necked deer that passes out from lightheadedness and cerebral anemia. Here’s a link to the clip: https://youtu.be/jI85dL3ooVU?si=HuNa2sdxLwuW2BYs

Tiptop the Giraffe propaganda:

I love him so so so much

[derelicthorror]

Wait, you write actual wf fics? Send them to me, I'd be more than happy to read and give feedback on them!

i do!! i always tag them under "#derelict drabbles" for ease of access but i also have about seven unproofed pieces plus a misguided backburner crossover i've been daydreaming about, so those should end up popping up soon!

of course, if anyone has a Concept that they want to toss my way so i can see what takes shape in the word processor, i always find that a lot of fun, too!

BIANCA CENSORI

[showyoumyfavoriteobsession]

So I joined a game jam! It's an event where you try to make a game in a limited period of time (2 weeks in this case). It started yesterday and since I didn't have any time to work on it then, today was my first big work day, learning how to use an entirely new engine - Unity.

This is what I worked on today: about five hours of tutorials and very hesitantly written code to make a simple balancing mechanism! I followed GMTK's great intro to Unity tutorial all the way through, then started a new project to make the above. I've already learned a ton and my brain is a bit overloaded. I'm glad I have two weeks so I can take it slow, I think it's going to be a great way to learn the new software.

Of course, there's still lots of tweaking to be done even now - the physics of the tilting don't feel quite right, it needs to have extra UI indicators and a failstate (and, of course, graphics) - but I'm very happy with it for a first day's work.

If universes aligned

pairing: Miguel o hara x Spidergirl!reader

Prompt: Miguel falling for Spidergirl!reader and being a complete simp for her whenever she is around him

a/n: I got this request from alathan13 ty! I added a bit of a twist. send me some requests!!!

Masterlist | ask

Miguel was stuck in a different dimension because of Lyla. The prototype for the watch worked but she couldn't get him back. So he decided to find a Spiderman and that's when he met Y/n Spider girl.

He couldn't stop thinking about Y/n once he came back after being with her for a month and getting to know her. Miguel knew he had to find a way to confess his feelings to her, even though the odds seemed against him.

One day, as fate would have it, Miguel managed to track down a dimensional rift that led him to y/n universe. Determined to seize the opportunity, he mustered up all his courage and entered the portal.

Emerging in a world unfamiliar to him, Miguel found himself in the heart of the city where y/n patrolled. He awaited her arrival As soon as she appeared Miguel's heart skipped a beat.

"Y/n!" he called out, his voice filled with a mix of anticipation and hope.

Y/n paused mid-air, looking around to locate the source of the voice. Her gaze fell upon Miguel, and recognition flickered in her eyes. Descending gracefully, she landed in front of him.

"Miguel? What are you doing here?" she asked, her voice tinged with surprise.

Taking a deep breath, Miguel gathered his thoughts. "Y/n, I traveled across dimensions to be with you. The first time I saw you, I knew there was something special about you. Your strength, your bravery, and your unwavering commitment to justice... they've touched me in a way I can't describe."

Y/n studied him intently, her masked eyes revealing a mix of curiosity and confusion. "Miguel, this is unexpected. We come from different worlds, different realities. How can this be?"

Miguel's eyes met hers "I don't have all the answers, Y/n. But what I do know is the connection I feel towards you. I've fallen for you, and I can't ignore these emotions any longer. You inspire me to be a better person, to fight for what's right. I want to be by your side, no matter the challenges we may face."

y/n remained silent for a moment. "Miguel, this is a lot to take in. Our lives are intertwined with dangers. But I can't deny how I feel about you, even across dimensions. there's a reason our paths have crossed."

Hope surged through Miguel as he heard her words made him feel seen and understood. Y/n raised her hand to his cheek and kissed him on the lips knowing what she was doing was wrong but she didn't care.

"Look, look- they have a whole section on rocks! Kinda basic selection but it's still rocks!"

You never thought you'd be able to learn so much about rocks in one day, but it seemed like Venture had made it their personal mission to force as much information into your brain as possible. You didn't mind, really! It was always nice listening to them rant about all the cool stuff they found while walking around the museum you'd planned to bring them to, but it was a lot to take in at once.

"Augh, I love sedimentary rocks- they're my favorite! 'cuz sometimes they have like, little fossils in them and I'm like, "Woah! A cool thing in another cool thing!" and it's awesome! One time I found a trilobite fossil in a rock, it was so cool! I wonder if they have any here- that'd be so amazing! I wonder what they taste like-"

After spilling every single fact they could think of about the rocks on display, Venture drags you to a section of the museum dedicated to Egyptian history, though they mostly just seemed interested in the architecture of the pyramids. You really did try to listen, but you mostly just caught the gist of their long, long, long explanations- something about a Mastaba being like a sort of prototype to pyramids? You were just happy to see them so excited, even if you didn't quite understand what they were so hyped about.

"Oh, if only that British lady could go back to ancient Egypt and get the architects of their time to answer my questions! I'd give anything to be able to do that!" Sensing the slight disappointment creeping up on them, you decide to try and bring Venture elsewhere, not wanting them to spend any energy on being upset by what they can't do.

"Why don't we go look at the dinosaur fossils? I'm sure there's some mistakes in the descriptions that you can correct!" You take their hand, gently pulling them away from the long essay-like description of images of the pyramids that they were reading. Incising them with promises of being able to show off their intensive knowledge of dinosaur fossils, or fossils in general.

Venture perked up almost immediately, following behind you as they ready themselves to go on and on about their favorite dinosaur ever, the Deinocheirus! You tried to ask why it was their favorite ones, and all they said was something about it being "them fr fr" and having rocks in its stomach. You weren't too keen on questioning that one.

They take a large step so they're walking next to you, swinging your arms as you walk, "It's always been one of my biggest goals to find a dinosaur fossil! I really hope I do one day, if I did I could die happy!"

"Please don't die- I would be so sad if you died." You squeeze their hand, voice light as you joke with them.

"Aw but I wanna! I wanna be a fossil for future people like me to discover! When I do die I wanna be buried with a bunch of cool stuff! Maybe mess around with my bones a little, just to throw 'em off!" As you finally reach the fossil exhibits, they abandon you to run off and check over every. single. fossil. which while endearing, gave you a lot of running to do in an attempt to catch up.

"Finally! For once a museum that gets everything right! Well, everything as far as we know-" They stand next to one of the larger fossils, not anything you recognized as you take your place next to them, catching your breath.

"Wow, how impressive-" you wheeze, standing up straight and stretching out your legs as you link arms with Venture, trying to stop them from running off on you again.

They laugh, grabbing you by the shoulder and dragging you in the tightest hug you've ever received.

"Thank you, so, so, so much for planning this. And for listening to me talk about rocks so much, and for caring about me- and a million other things! I can't even remember everything you've done for me, but I know its a lot!" They let you go, still holding you by the shoulders, the biggest smile you've ever seen on a person splayed across their face.

"Of course-! I love spending time with you, you're well aware of that, silly." You laugh, grabbing their wrists and taking their hands off your shoulders, holding their hands as you admire the glow of excitement on their face.

"Welllll since you clearly don't mind, can we go to this other museum I found online next week?! I heard they have an area where you get to watch an hour long video on the story of Julius Caesar!"

Technology from 1870-1899 (For Encanto fic writers)

So, A mutual of mine @miracles-and-butterfliess pointed out that everyone (including me) tends to forget that Encanto was literally made when the triplets were born. Which is literally 1900 or 1901. Regardless, it was the very beginning of the 19th century so let me tell you about the technology/things they would/wouldn’t have. (And please keep in mind that most of these may or may not have been imported into Colombia yet.) 

1870 - 1879

1872—A.M. Ward creates the first mail-order catalog. NO

1873—Joseph Glidden invented barbed wire. NO

1876—Alexander Graham Bell patents the telephone. NO

1876—Nicolaus August Otto invents the first practical four-stroke internal combustion engine. NO

1876—Melville Bissell patents the carpet sweeper. NO?

1878—Thomas Edison invents the cylinder phonograph (known then as the tin foil phonograph). MAYBE

1878—Eadweard Muybridge invents moving pictures. NO?

1884—James Ritty invents a functional mechanical cash register. YES?

1884—Charles Parson patents the steam turbine. NO

1885—Karl Benz invented the first practical automobile powered by an internal-combustion engine. NO (even before Encanto, Alma’s town looked rural so I doubt the automobile reached them yet.)

1892—Sir James Dewar invents the Dewar vacuum flask. NO

1893—W.L. Judson invents the zipper. NO (zippers didn’t become popular globally until a little bit later; buttons, ribbons/laces and whatever else were still the norm/in fashion for fastening and tying (which is still the case in some places today)

1895—Brothers Auguste and Louis Lumière invent a portable motion-picture camera that doubles as a film-processing unit and projector. The invention is called the Cinematographe and using it, the Lumières project the motion picture for an audience. NO?

1899—J.S. Thurman patents the motor-driven vacuum cleaner. NO (if you're running from being killed, the last thing you're going to bring is a vacuum cleaner) 

I remember a post listing the sort of jobs there would be in Encanto but I forgot so I’ll just list the ones I know (let me know if I need to add anything.): 

Seamstress/tailor

Embellisher

Field worker 

Teacher (of any kind; music, dance, art, etc)

Woodworker - wood carver

Toy maker

Construction worker

Joining a Local band/ Orchestra - being apart of a choir 

Carpenter 

Metal worker 

Jeweler (though I’m not sure if Jewelery of the diamond/gem kind is common in Encanto)

bladesmith/ knifemaker 

Inventor? (Inventors should exist in Encanto by now…just one other genius besides Mirabel?)

I know some of these are very obvious but I’m just giving people options okay? 

@miracles-and-butterflies you seem to know a lot more about this kind of stuff so if you have anything to add/take away or me to fix please let me know. I tried to search up “When was X invention imported into Colombia” and literally nothing of use comes up.

Ok, it’s a bit early for this type of request but hobie brown on Valentine’s Day with reader. Even though he hates the capitalist part of it, reader convinces him it’s all about the love and they celebrate together. (They make each other homemade gifts, and if they want something from the store hobie would steal it) <3

Thank you for the adorable request!! Ly 🫶 (uploaded early bc i tend to forget abt valentine's day lol)

Pairing: Hobie Brown x gn! Reader/ Spider-Punk x gn! Reader

Tags: No use of Y/N, No specific physical description of the reader, CW food mentions, FLUFF.

ʕ⁠·⁠ᴥ⁠·⁠ʔ

The loud music blares right inside your eardrums, chocolate aroma filtering through the entire flat, there's dried bits of it in your hair, apron and hands. You hum while putting the melted chocolate in its heart shaped molds.

Hobie's initials are freshly painted using icing on the prototypes or what you called ‘the rejected batch’ after you dumped more cocoa powder in it, making it lumpy and in turn making the hearts look wonky.

Stretching your aching neck, you place the tray of chocolate inside the freezer to cool, nodding to yourself at how you've practically perfected the last batch; now you just have to wait for it to freeze over so you could paint his initials and cartoon versions of you two on the chocolate. After that you can finally box them up and gift them to Hobie's as a valentine's gift—

“What's all this then?” A chin plops atop your shoulder, fingers taking off your earbuds for you.

You jump in your skin, back hitting the fridge door in surprise. “Fucking fuck!”

Hobie grins at your reaction, his hand hidden behind his back. “Cute apron. You look bloody fit in it.”

You clutch your imaginary pearls. “You're such an ass.” calming your racing heart, you flick his forehead. “You're early.”

“Time is a construct.”

“I'm not done with your gift.”

“Valentine's day is a sham holiday that capitalists invented so you could buy shit your partner doesn't need.” He raises a brow at you.

You loop your arms around his neck, smile widening at every word he utters. “What's that behind you then?”

“Flowers,” he sighs, revealing a bouquet of flowers from behind, the colorful paper crinkles, a thin red ribbon tying it all together. You're sure you've seen the flowers somewhere. “Before you say anythin’ it's from my garden.”

“You're an absolute sweetheart, Hobie brown.” eyes sparkling, you lean to press numerous kisses on his whole face, he scrunches up, feigning offense at your comment, but the way he subtly chases your lips says otherwise.

“My big punk sweetheart got me flowers!” You can't help but squeeze his cheeks. “From his beloved garden no less!” Pressing kisses in quick succession, he surrenders to you, sighing with every smooch you give him.

You lean away, affection satiated. He looks properly smooched with his face relaxed and lips smiling lopsidedly. His eyes are the same shape as the chocolates you've been making.

“The holiday's still a bloody cash grab.” He huffs, not an annoyed huff but a content one as you wipe the sheen you've left on his skin.

“I know it is.” You chuckle, busying yourself on cleaning his face. Your movements remind him of a cat grooming another cat; tender and soothing for the one they love. “It's about the thought, the love that comes with the gifts. Purchased or made there's love underneath it all.” Voice soft, lashes fluttering, you look at him like you've got the whole world in your hands.

“Or stolen from a multi million store that doesn't pay their employees fairly?” Hobie holds you by your middle, spare hand still clutched around the precious bouquet.

“Oh especially then!” you take his gift, smelling the petals. Your heart is full.

Smiling, you embrace him that he welcomes wholeheartedly. Nose nuzzling the crook of his neck, you leave a soft kiss on his jaw for good measure.

“Based on the chocolates on the walls, 'm guessing you got me a new guitar?” Hobie jokes, voice muffled by your temple that he's currently pecking like a man deprived of kisses. (He isn't)

“Wait a few more hours to get your gift?” You lean away to look at him, he's eyeing the prototypes on the counter.

“Stay with you for the rest of the day, getting snogged by you every second?” You nod, giggling. “Sounds like pants.” Before you could say something witty, he crashes his lips to yours.

Hobie tastes chocolates in your lips, making him kiss you deeper. Hands gliding along your lower back, he finds penchant on your hips, molding the soft skin in his hands.

He leans back, watching your flustered face gawp at him. “Tastes good, love.” His voice is deep and saccharine. You're absolutely melting in his arms, the bouquet almost slipping from your clammy hands.

“Let me get another taste.”

[fairyfai]

Leave your thoughts below (if ya want!) I'm curious on whether or not they'd be in the new game and wanted to see yall opinions :)

Edit: Whoops! Forget to throw in my two cents on the matter (under keep reading) but ty all sm for sharing your thoughts so far!

I'm actually on the fence on whether or not they'd actually show up in the new game but like most of you have mentioned, I think they still might be referenced throughout the game anyway but it really depends on where Steel Wool takes it. Though like many of you, I'd also want them to show up, and if not in their current body (their biblically accurate design) then prob a prototype of them or smth. There's just so many references from sb and in the dlc, including help wanted 2 (but not talked abt enough) that could allude to them being in sotm but again, its really up to Steel Wool and where they take the game. (Like someone already mentioned, Jack-o-moon could show up as well!)

Another thing, if it's not Sun and Moon that appears in sotm, then it'd be nice to have Eclipse be shown and have some screentime too! :)

Again, this is all just purely opinion

Theo and Sam

Meet Theodore and Samuel.

The two orphans experimented into being Catnap and Dogday(BBI).

Samuel Lee:

Age - 8

"Death" - Was announced adopted before being sedated and experimented on.

Experiment - 1190

Toy - Dogday

Samuel is social and friendly, he's well knows among the other orphans and well-liked. Despite being eight, he already was showing signs of positive leadership which is why Playtime decided to select and greenlight him to be the candidate for Bigger Body Dogday. He was easy to work with and was very friendly to the staff as he was oblivious to the dark nature of Playtime Co.

Samuel Lee was mentioned in the VHS tape featuring him being announced adopted. I believe this was one of the ways they covered up when an orphan goes missing as now the other orphans would think they just got adopted and that's they're gone. The reason why I labeled him as oblivious to Playtime Co. was because Dogday calls us an angel which is a bit weird because it had been implied that the protagonist/player/"Angel" had done bad stuff in the past and had involvement with the experiments which counts Dogday himself.

Theodore Grambell:

Age - 7

"Death" - He attempted to escape but a malfunction with the green hand caused Theo to be electrocuted which in this version, also blew up the machinery causing further damage and burns.

Experiment - 1188

Toy - Catnap

Theodore is more reserved and quiet as he avoids interaction with the staff and even other orphans. Although reluctant at first, Theo's only friend is the Prototype but he still appreciates Samuel Lee's company as he's one of the only other orphans that tries to cheer him up or help him. Unlike Sam, he's more aware of the experimentations thanks to the Prototype's warnings and information which because of that, he's both scared and wary of the staff and doesn't try to open up to them or interact with them at all. He is also troubled from his past.

Theo a lot of the time, is just quietly observing everyone. I imagine him to often feel hopeless as the reality that the orphanage he's now trapped in will eventually experiment him and turn him into a toy. Because of this, he's blank-faced and stoic as he just tries to live through each day knowing that anytime he's forced asleep by the red gas through the air vents, it might be the last time he wakes up as Theodore.

In this version(I guess you can call it that), the reason why Catnap left Dogday hanging there without legs is with his mixed feelings. Dogday was a decent leader-role and did take care of the other Smiling Critters but when Playtime Co. saw this, they realized that if they managed to control Dogday, they can more easily control the group as the Smiling Critters try to avoid listening to Playtime Co's orders. However, although they were able to manipulate Dogday, it wouldn't fool Catnap as he started distancing himself away from Dogday because in his eyes, Dogday was now on the side of Playtime Co. The ones that hurt them. Despite this, Catnap still appreciated Sam/Dogday's company so it was a jumbled mix between liking and disliking him.

Catnap ripped Dogday's legs off before tying him up in the cell instead of killing him. Not because this is what he often does(he mostly just kills them, not torture them) but it was mixed emotions between hating him more than other heretics but still liking him more than other toys.

Of course...none of this canon but just my version so I hoped you like it.
