[Crash Twinsanity but instead it's my Crash OCs being like the characters]

Prezzy: [chasing a butterfly] Haha, I'm gonna getcha! Heehee, c'mere...!

[Sage is pointing his ray gun around a tree. He pauses as Ember is clicking through its settings]

Sage: Hmm... Mmhm!

[They go for "stun" mode and he zaps Pretzel. Prezzy is yammering in shock until they fall to the ground, paralyzed. The butterfly lands on their nose. Sage and Ember approach them]

Sage: Sleep, my insipid angel

[Cuts to Charlie, who is punching a coconut tree at the beach. Her sister Tango is watching her sister, while she is drinking the coconut milk out of the shell. Ember, now wearing a Prezzy disguise, peeks out from behind a tree]

Ember: (mimicking Prezzyl) Charlie? Hey Charlie! Where are you, sister? There's something weird going on in the bay? Come see!

--------------------------------------

[Charlie and her sister Tango get to a ring shaped platform. Ember, who is on top of there, spins around her Prezzy disguise and she climbs onto her adopted father Sage's shoulder. Who he is also on top of the platform]

Sage: Surprised to see us Charlie? Like the fleas in your fur, we keep coming back!

[Charlie and Tango were both shocked by their return. Then Charlie itches her ear]

Sage: Three years we have spent alone in the frozen Antarctic wastes! And we have missed you

Sage: And so we've organised a little gathering, like a birthday party except… the exact opposite

[Cuts to Charlie's foes; Killagator, Cyanide, Willard Wallaby, Quills and Pinecone, who are also on top of the platform]

Sage: And look! All of your friends are here! You are so very popular… Let's start handing out the presents.

Finally Finished Reading the Design Bibles

I took a lot of notes, and while I do, unfortunately, have to keep my blog spoiler-free for my friend (who has not played 3 yet, but we're working through it) I did want to share some highlights!

Ring on Jak's chest noted to be an "Eco Ring" that channels and holds eco force, which it odd because the Warrior is the only other person that uses rings in their design.

Gameplay note: Lurkers are specifically told to only deal with anyone who strays too far from the village. meaning the village isn't a target at all. Just realized this whole thing is in comic sans

Samos the sage is noted to be a "Scholar" of Green Eco. Skin has taken on green skin after years of exposure. Elements of his design suggest a harmony and closeness with nature rather than the noted potential corruption the human body would inflict upon it.

Kiera wants to be a sage. She also likes investigating precursor technology. These are two conflicting desires that any normal youth would have, however her noted interest in tech and building is more utilized than any eco knowledge.

Samos clearly has no problems with her pursuing this path.

Piercings and tattoos exist in the time of TPL The Warrior wears Three (3) rings, pauldrons, vambraces, and leg guards. Has a similar wrapping style in his arms and wrists to Jak, and is, more or less, the only other person that seems armed and prepared for any form of combat. His hair is also green. Being defeated by Kull was a huge his to his pride. Encountering Jak and Daxter may likely have inspired him to learn form his failure and continue onward

Willard and Gordy are the only other characters with names. Names may be attributed to those in close relationships, whereas strangers or acquaintances use reserved titles exclusively

The gambler made a bet the Warrior would outlast the lurkers and lost. That's why he's poor now.

Mosquito design justified by the utilization of the snoot as a literal bloodsucking eco-eater. Design bible notates the functions of a robot for planet-creation, however the design is distinctly more battle/war based.

Overworld concept art is vibrant and much more elaborate than the prints can give off. Overhead shots give great detail on the overall look of the world, likely able to be pieced together to make a semi-cohesive map.

Personal note: Love the inclusion of stylizing the trees to keep everything on-theme Precursor temple in concept art leaves less that it was built into the mountain and more that it fell and then settled there

Jak's hair is barely up to the Warrior's shoulder.

Renegade Jak is not much taller than his younger self. Notably bulked out in some areas, but also painfully thin despite it. Could be chocked up to the dramatic style change between TPL and Renegade. May need to superimpose over feet vs head to get full scale of actual growth, if I really want to work that angle (I do not)

gets new goggles! Those are different ones entirely!

"Dark Jak is INVINCIBLE!" lol, okay fam. 'Dark Jak' taking an intense physical toll on the body makes sense, given the transformation is due to the over-abundance of dark eco in his system. Dark Jak may act as a release of excess energy as much as a dissociative defense mechanism.

Young samos definitely smokes weed. Sig apparently wears a size 18 boot. (13 inches from toe to heel) Vin wears a bowtie

Torn's Facial tattoos are asymmetrical. Both in concept and on model. (I will never draw them that way)

Torn still has many connections with the KG besides Ashelin. Left the Baron's forces for explained reasons, and wants to take the baron down for those aforementioned reasons.

Ashelin started in the KG as a recruit and "fought her way up the ranks to become a commander." Loyal to a fault, still in contact with Torn even after his desertion.

Note: The only known KG commanders are Erol and Ashelin, with Torn being a former commander himself. These two are the only ones that have unique armour tailored to their position and style. Erol with the racing suit, and Ashelin with a more "horse girl" style. Neither contain any colour consistency between them, suggesting that customized armour is a perk to being at the literal top of the military hierarchy.

All Krimson Guards have tattoos to show their loyalty to the city. Models are all copy-pasted, but it's reasonable to assume they earn/get more when ascending ranks or branching into specialized units.

Design note: Torn has a tall torso, Vin has droopy ears, and is taller than Jak

Mar's own legend has contradictory accounts of weither he died. Precursor stone was attached to his sword. Interesting design choice.

Jak is roughtly tit-height to a Rapid-Gunner Metalhead

racing vehicles are designed with a slimmer, almost body-width footprint utilizing aerodynamics and rudders over the fish design of Kiera's original model. Additionally, riders sit feet-forward in a slouched, almost laying position that puts strain on their neck to continue looking forward. Neither model displayed in the design bible have more than one rudder for mobility, which is understandable considering the high-speeds they reach. that can't be good on your back, though.

HAVEN IS PLACED THREE HUNDRED YEARS IN THE FUTURE. PERFECT. THIS IS THE FKING CONFIRMATION I NEEDED. world concept art shows land outside of haven's walls, and even more, ruined walls, beyond. small areas that look to either be stations or small inhabited areas denote life outside of the city is not only possible, but likely. The Pumping Station is NOT misty island, nor is it geyser rock. based on foliage alone, may be adjacent to the forbidden jungle.

Sewers were MASSIVE in concept. filled with metal-heads, and winding enough to get lost in easily. Would have made a great quick getaway point if there were multiple access points throughout the city Haven Forest is a sacred place, filled with stone effigy's and an offering stand in front of The Tree. A wall may have been intended to be grafitti'd

Stone carvings depicting Mar's legend would be a wonderful touch, if incorporated.

Mar buried at the crotch of a precursor robot behind a MASSIVE door that perfectly illustrates the force required to have protected the city from Metalheads. Port was intended to be a more bustling area, complete with actual BOATS. and common areas! I would have loved to see these get modeled into the game, they'd be spectacular.

The stadium was clearly the favoured child. Drill platform is one of many, sees regular activity during the day.

If Daxter's two feet tall, and each bar is a foot, Jak is Five Feet tall.

Baron Praxis is even bigger than Sig. But still shorter than the Warrior. Kiera and Jak are roughly the same height Onin's outfit is basically the ugly nike shirt Tess is Taller than Jak. Erol is shorter than Ashelin.

Jak continues to wear wrappings up to his elbows despite not strictly needing to. Other concept has his forearms free. Headcanon explanation: Hates looking at his scars, so he covers them up to avoid it being seen or asked about.

There is not explanation for the Precursors. I fking LOVE it.

Every wastelander is designed with their hair either put up or cut short to prevent it from getting in the way. Every one has a a design with a pauldron of some kind, and while their clothing isn't entirely practical, it looks light and airy enough to provide protection from at least the sun.

return of the precursor robot

the proto-names for all of the cars feature animal names! Which, while cute, clearly did not last to the final phase.

"Wastelanders love their off-road vehicles" Sir, THERE IS NO ROAD

lol, kg segway

Precursor ship is fking HUUUUGE

The planet is noted to be "unfinished"

Huge variety of flora and fauna in the wasteland. Despite being a desert, it boasts its own ecosystem of a variety of cacti and also fully fledged trees. Concept art suggests that people are able to tame and mount large desert lizards to traverse the sands (nomadic tribes, likely)

Just from the concepts alone, i can tell the entirety of the wasteland was meant to be much larger and more elaborate than the one we ended up with. More diverse life, maybe less marauders, potentially mounts outside of Spargus, the oasis is an entire area unto itself and in the game it's just a puddle. There is so much more love and care in the crafting of the ideas and concepts of this game that sadly got left to the wayside from either time or money constraints. Haven is in ruins, New areas previously unknown have been uncovered, and there's an entire world out there that has yet to be explored in full. Were this game made today, and given the time needed to make sure it was well-produced and as elaborate as they wanted, it'd easily give Nintendo's LoZ a run for its money.

Thinking this will prevent war, the US government gives an impenetrable supercomputer total control over launching nuclear missiles. But what the computer does with the power is unimaginable to its creators.

Given the current state of humankind, it makes perfect sense to turn planet management over to a supercomputer, right? Enter Charles Forbin and Colossus, his mountain-size, 70s-style, omnipotent computer. Of course, “The best-laid schemes o’ mice an’ men gang aft agley and leave us nothing but grief and pain, for promised joy!” (Robert Burns) And they “gang agley” in a hurry!

The Grue-Crew are agog at the cast – Eric Braeden, Susan Clark, Gordon Pinsent, and a mountain-full of recognizable character actors, many of whom have horror cred – so there is much fodder for their talkabout! By the way, is it still science fiction if it’s happening today?

Twenty-seventh ceremony - jude and Sam

Opening music: Uptown String Quartet playing James Brown’s “I Feel Good”

Welcome

We are here today to make official the marriage of jude halloran and Sam Nadon-Nichols. Thanks everyone for being here.

The ceremony part may be short but we're are hoping for the whole of their time together to be long.

We’ll have six short readings, an address to the couple, followed by declaration of vows and pronouncement. Then we hang out.

Readings

“Wedding Prayer” adapted from Robert Louis Stevenson

Behold our family here assembled. We thank you for this place in which we dwell, for the love that unites us, for the peace accorded us this day, for the hope with which we expect the morrow, for the health, the work, the food, and the bright skies that make our lives delightful; for our friends in all parts of the earth.

Tsu Yeh, AD 265-316

Do you not see That you and I Are as the branches of one tree? With your rejoicing Comes my laughter; With your sadness Start my tears Love, Could life be otherwise With you and me?

From Bill Mason’s Path of the Paddle (p.45)

“The paddler who has mastered the canoe alone is well on the way to becoming a good doubles paddler. Paddling solo gives a special feel for the canoe and how it reacts to wind, waves, and current. Paddling double is also a beautiful and challenging art. A well-coordinated team working together in either flatwater or difficult rapids is a sight to behold. Most canoeists prefer to travel in pairs on wilderness trips because two people can propel a canoe easier and faster than one.”

“That Still and Settled Place” by Edward Monkton

In that still and settled place There's nobody but you You're where I breathe my oxygen You're where I see my view

And when the world feels full of noise My heart knows what to do It finds that still and settled place And dances there with you

“Marriage Amulet” by Nancy Willard

You are polishing me like old wood. At night we curl together like two rings On a dark hand. After many nights, The rough edges wear down.

If this is aging, it is warm as fleece. I will gleam like ancient wood. I will wax smooth, my crags and cowlicks Well-rubbed to show my grain.

Some sage will keep us in his hand for peace.

Intro

You’re here to get married. Your wedding day is one brief day in time and although your vows are spoken in a matter of minutes, they are promises that will last a lifetime.

I say special day but really a wedding day is just a day, as important as it is; a marriage is a decision you make once together (“let’s do this”) and then over and over again for the rest of your lives, with love and respect, trust and hope, patience and understanding.

Address to Couple

(adapted from Robert Fulghum)

You have known each other from the first glance of acquaintance to this point

of commitment. From that moment of attraction to this moment of yes…

you have been making promises and agreements in an informal way.

All those common commitments, matters of the heart, and more, are the real process of a wedding. …

Look at one another and remember this moment in time.

Before this moment you have been many things to one another—acquaintance, friend, companion,

lover, dancing partner, and teacher.

Now you shall say a few words that take you across a threshold of life.

Vows

Do you, Sam, want to be married to jude and share the rest of your life with her?

I, Sam, want to be married to jude and share the rest of my life with her

I promise to respect and honor you, care for you in tenderness, support you with patience and love, and walk with you through all the seasons of our lives.

Do you, jude, want to be married to Sam and share the rest of your life with him?

I, jude, want to be married to Sam and share the rest of my life with him

I promise to respect and honor you, care for you in tenderness, support you with patience and love, and walk with you through all the seasons of our lives.

May beauty surround us and kindness and happiness be our companions

Wrap-Up and Pronouncement

I'd like to read an excerpt from “Epithalamium” by John Stone

Let your twoness be as one

as much as twoness can

though let your one be also two.

In your marriage I wish you the simplest of things.

May you be well.

May you be happy.

May you be safe and secure.

May you be peaceful and at ease.

May you love and be loved.

By the authority vested in me by the voters of Randolph and the State of Vermont I now pronounce you married in the eyes the law. Congratulations.

Closing music: Los Amigos Invisibles – “Amor”

Hi!! Happy Blorbo Blursday!! I've never participated before so if the question feels off-theme, I apologize, but!!

What would your current blorbos from separate works think of each other if they ever met? If you have any blorbos from shows, would they get along with blorbos from your brain?? Would any of them hate each other?? Would any of them tempt a crossover of some kind??

I hope you have a lovely rest of your day!! - @magic-is-something-we-create

Thanks @magic-is-something-we-create !! If it makes you feel better I need constant reminders in what the fuck a blorbo is or means so.

I think Simone would get along with Caleb Widogast from Critical Role because they both have similar academic minds and love acquiring knowledge on things and also reading smut so. Lots to talk about all around. Simone would def want to pop into the CR universe if only for like. An hour to pick his brain.

I think Neku and Caleb COULD get along due to their similar enough backstories, but I think Neku is like. The worse road traveled and they would end up enemies I think.

Aleta and Simone would not get along. They're both academic and smart and love hoarding knowledge, but Aleta has an innate need to safeguard and gatekeep knowledge (to be fair she thinks it will keep her culture from being destroyed so) and Simone wants to spread it, so they're at ideological odds there tbh.

I don't think Taako Taaco would get along with most people tbh. MAYBE Jayashekar because they're both showy and flamboyant and gay but I think they would end up trying to one-up each other so. I think Nadia would want to party with Taako tho. I think Maka would try to commiserate with Taako (she's a god dating a Mortal, he's a Mortal dating a god) but... hmm.

[victoria-daydreams]

I've only known them for a day and a half, but if anything happened to them, I would kill everyone in this room and then myself.

(That includes my Imperial and New Republic pilot who are not pictured. )
