FUN FACTS ABOUT VALERIE NOW

also hehe please do tell Toby in your creepypasta au (and the others) ^^

qessusie you beautiful man im going to chew on your face

Valerie:

she has a lot of inspirations but a big one is Ruby Lane from Fear Street!! (I love the fear street movies so much shoutout to @stxticfxce for getting me into it)

originally, her favorite food was gonna be cherries and her ship name with Jack would be "cherrypie", the pie part coming from Jack's magpie nickname. I scrapped it cause i just stopped liking it after awhile.

Jeff calls her "Lamb chops" sometimes. I'm a firm believer in the headcanon that Jeff is terrible with names and just calls everyone whatever the hell he wants.

she can run in high heels and platforms!

her main weapons are dual switchblades with silver handles. her last name is engraved into the blades. if she can't use her hands she's really good at fighting with her legs (Jack's first impression of her was almost getting kicked in the nuts, actually)

she's closest with Kate and Jack, she's only comfortable being extremely vulnerable with them and maybe Slenderman.

Jeff's first impression of her was being stabbed in the eye with his own knife (she apologized and gave him cigarettes to make up for it after his body fully healed, they're decent friends now)

She has entomophobia (fear of bugs, not fear of vomiting) due to something that happened in her childhood. The memory of what caused it is lost to her, but the phobia stayed.

Toby:

African American in my AU! I saw a prophecy from the gods above and it felt so right. He's still extremely fluent in German though, he calls Jeff a bunch of German cuss words when they piss each other off lmao

I've been thinking about making him aroace for awhile. i think him and Clocky work better as a platonic Wybie and Coraline duo than romantic, at least my versions. also clockwork is a lesbian in my au.

Toby's name is the only one Jeff can remember because he's constantly being yelled at. He's just a silly guy!!

He has a plethora of different weapons that he uses on missions! he might use his hatchets or a baseball bat or a chainsaw. He tried to use a flamethrower once but he accidentally exploded his eyeballs cause he got too close to the fire. He was out for like 6 hours until his body was able to heal itself and he could see again. He got the target though!

Heavily inspired by Wybie Lovat design wise, he is a slouchy, spindly man. Him and Clocky are the same height, but he looks shorter cause his posture is awful.

Pretty close with Valerie but he kinda overwhelms her sometimes. They bond over shared amnesia.

Ben:

Ben isn't technically his name.. the letters B-E-N are just his initals. He doesn't remember his actual name and doesn't care to. (Fun fact, it's russian! I'd tell you what it is but I haven't thought of it yet 🌝)

Doesn't smoke pot in my au since i'm not rlly good with drugs.

Besties with Jeff. Like homoerotic besties. Yk those 'straight' guys at school that sit on their friends lap as a 'joke'? they're like that.

He doesn't look exactly like Link, but his fashion sense is inspired by him. He wears alot of green beanies and grows out his hair to shoulder length, etc.

Not technically a full ghost.. he's like a mix of a proxy and a ghost. (Proxy is a universal term for anyone who works under slenderman in my au. I'll make a post fully explaining how my au works sometime in the future if someone asks for it. or if i get bored one night, who knows.)

He got Jeff into anime but has been sworn to secrecy since Jeff thinks anime is too "nerdy" for him.

Jack:

Tall boy. 6'8 with his slouch, 6'11 at his full height.

I've learned recently that Chernobog is an actual, very real deity in slavic culture. Because I want to avoid being disrespectful, and also because i love making up supernatural entities, his backstory is very different than in canon! I'm not gonna go into full detail in this post but to summarize, he kinda merged with a type of cannablistic demon during the ritual. Demons in my au have lots of different types. Ones that don't belong to a specific.. breed (for lack of a better term) are usually really powerful and are very rare. The Operator is one of those rare cases!

If he listened to music he'd definitely listen to Shoegaze. I think of him to Ghost by Whirr and Mercury by Glaze alot.

He can't gain any proteins or calories or anything from regular food, he can only really 'survive' from eating human meat. Anything else is technically starving.

Doesn't have sharp teeth, just an extremely strong bite force and a hunger that battles a medieval peasant's.

If he's not outside finding things, or hanging out with Val, he's usually just sleeping. He doesn't have a lot of hobbies and not much motivation to find any. He watches youtube sometimes, but only when he's really bored.

Very quiet, both verbally and physically. Before Val, he usually only spoke if he had to and even then he wouldn't say anymore than he needed to. He often unintentionally scares people because he doesn't make any noise doing like.. anything so its extremely hard to notice him before he's like 5 inches behind you.

He's been struck by lightning twice. He was fine after, just a bit spooked.

My apology applies to my ignorance and the intersexism I inflicted, and for that I am truly sorry. But I'm not sorry for not changing my name - which I've been going by for several years - because some people incorrectly assumed it was the Japanese name. They're two different names with two different origins.

Lots of things I want to address here so followers, forgive the wall of text.

1. I have to wonder why you’re coming back into my inbox with this. No one’s made a post about you since it happened. I also have to wonder why you’re staying on anon which is extremely childish. We are both adults here so I really do not understand why you’re not messaging me; it’s easy enough to make a throwaway account. And honestly? It’d be much easier for me to not get irritated with you if we were talking one on one. But if you’re fine airing your dirty laundry, okay. Sure.

2. I am not the one to come to with this shit. I am so tired of coddling white people. When multiple people are uncomfortable with something, when people of color especially are uncomfortable with something, you listen. And honestly? If you disagree with the criticism, just shut up and move on. It’s a really bad look to keep defending yourself when no one is even talking about you anymore.

3. Just did a few interesting searches to see the popularity of the name in Norway. Interestingly enough I can’t find zilch. It was popular in the middle ages in Denmark, but it is still a very common Japanese name. Just because a Norwegian character uses the name doesn’t mean it’s not Japanese. White kids can be named Japanese names, and are all the time. It doesn’t mean the name isn’t Japanese. It is basically dead in languages other than Japanese. Correct, it does have a different Norwegian origin; that date back to the Middle Ages when the name was Tooke. Which is a surname. When it did develop it lost popularity and all but died. Not in Japan, though! Awesome. Glad we’ve got that covered.

4. I’m turning anon off because I am not going to entertain white people who can’t shut the fuck up but also can’t come off anon. If you want to defend your choices, don’t be a coward about it. Otherwise there’s no point in keeping up the conversation. I have not made one post about you since the incident went down and quite frankly we are all tired of coddling you like a child. You got enough of that. No one is explaining it to you again. I don’t care about your excuses, defenses or bullshit logic, especially when you can’t even come off anon.

And I find it funny how you still have not given a proper apology for the intersexism. Do not apologize to me. I am not the one who you were being fucking awful to. And when you follow up your “true” apology with “but I’m not sorry about this:” it just shows what a bullshit apology it is to begin with. There are tons of guides on the internet, and specifically on Tumblr, that show you how to apologize properly. Maybe you should try to look for those because this is not it. And I am not going to accept your apology and I don’t even want to acknowledge it beyond pointing out how fucking performative it is, because it’s not my apology to accept. If you want to be a uwu good ally and actually listen to the people who raise valid fucking concerns about your behavior then here it is. And if you want to be an adult and not act like a coward and go on anon when my inbox is open, and you know my discord, you know where to find me. Otherwise do not come to me and expect me to respond kindly and forgive you for your mistakes.

I don’t know what else to say to you beyond the fact that this is so ridiculous. You are beating a dead horse. Either accept you’re wrong and change accordingly and be a better person or just leave it alone. Or at the very least be an adult about it.

And by the way, just because I’m a person of color literally does not mean I can or will accept your apology because you’re racist. I know it’d make you feel good about yourself if a person of color let you off the hook but that’s not even my place. I think maybe you should talk to a Japanese person and when they don’t accept your bullshit defenses of how you’re definitely not racist, maybe you’ll finally get it through your head that it’s not okay to just go ahead and use a Japanese name because a white fictional character uses it and once it was popular in the middle ages for white people to use.
