little goober i made for one of my worldbuilding projects (the one in question being Ghelter Aquatic Desalination Corporation)

look at the fella, sitting there with his roblox fish lookin face

You know what I think I'm going to start expositing lore. That wasn't my original intention but I'm gonna do it anyway.

Click the Keep reading button thingy if you'd like to read about marisians and their lives in Ghelter Aquatic.

So I'm sure you've all read the 17 page long in-universe research paper written by Kosi Neuer about marisians that I wrote a little while back...

...but on the off chance that you didn't, here's a basic summary!

Humans are not alone, we have discovered a whole buncha fish people called Homo Natans but more colloquially referred to as marisians.

Marisians are dangerous because they are largely unpredictable (at time of that paper being written) and can only reproduce through infection of humans through bites. Also they might be able to tear people apart with their fangs without infecting but we don't know for sure, it could have been that the flesh was separated from the body at such a speed that there was no time for an infecting agent to enter the body. So it's a maybe on that one for now.

When a human is transformed into a marisian, they take on a number of new qualities. The skin is recolored, along with the eyes and hair. Marisians develop new appendages like fins and fish-like tails. Their pupils also glow. Regarding mental change, most marisians develop a combination of lower intelligence, immaturity, energy, and physical strength (that is often belied by their appearance). More rarely, however, a marisian will experience a significant increase in intelligence that often surpasses their human intelligence (even if that trait is difficult to accurately quantify and measure), maturity, but lower energy and physical strength. The former are called "Swimmers" and the latter are called "Sapients." The ratio of swimmers to sapients is roughly 7 to 1. This may point to a brawns-and-brains mechanic that schools of marisians may use in nature, with sapients being discouraged from doing much physical work and doing the mental work for the group, leading the swimmers who can execute their plans. Swimmers are often docile and compliant with security and researchers while sapients are more hostile and unwilling to conform. Marisians also lose all of their memories upon transformation into a marisian, but do retain a few skills like the ability to speak any languages they knew or a few habits/rituals.

So that's a summary of the relevant part of the paper. There is still more but it isn't exactly relevant to what I want to talk about.

So what does a marisian's average day to day look like? Well, they spend most of their time in their holding tanks. Half of their holding tanks are dry ground while the other half is essentially a really deep pool. There are beds and rooms on the dry section but most choose to sleep in the pool. The entrance to a holding tank is sealed by a huge door thing. idk man i don't do doors lol.

wait i have an image

this is what those doors look like for the most part. there's a decontamination chamber/checkpoint behind that door that will allow you to enter the holding tank.

Marisians are allowed to mingle with one another and essentially can do whatever they want while not being tested on. Food is delivered and distributed 3 times a day by some poor soul in the Hospitality Department. Employees of the Hospitality Department are going to be the most frequent sight for marisians, other than the Security Department, of course.

Now when I say "poor soul" I don't mean they're like gonna die or anything like that. They're just going to have to get through a really uncomfortable and possibly dangerous environment for like a half hour or so as they try to get everyone's attention and to pass out meals without aggravating anyone. Also they do have an escort of guards so yeah.

The Hospitality Department also handles all of their janitorial work and such. Occasionally, someone in the Engineering Department may need to enter the holding tank to fix something.

Every marisian has a medical check up once a year, held on the "anniversary" of their transformation. That is conducted by the Medical Department and overseen by some grunt from the Ethics Department.

Also anytime I mention departments, assume a few fellas from the Security Department are present. That'll just go without saying.

When being tested on, there will (obviously) be a few fellas from the Research Department and there will usually be some fella from the Ethics Department but not always.

While there is the occasional riot (on average, once every 2 years, actually), most marisians are content with their lives. They don't really seek freedom, on account that most of them are swimmers and just spend all day relaxing in a holding tank with free meals, no rent, no taxes, no jobs or other obligations, free medical care... hey where can I sign up to be one of these guys?

But they do get tested on and sometimes they are extremely unethical. For example, the Psychology Division of the Research Department decided in 2014 that yes, it was very important that we find out what happens to a marisian who basically has the intellectual capacity of a child with extreme claustrophobia and stuff them in what was essentially a small box and deprived them of food and water for 48 hours. Needless to say, that was extremely problematic and the Ethics Department raised a fuss about that one.

That was just like one example of an unethical experiment, they happen startlingly frequently, I just don't feel like making up more right now. Just know that like 1 in uhhhhhhh like every 10 experiments is extremely unethical. Ideally that would be 0. 0 in every 10.

So on account of those, sapients are usually able to get a bunch of swimmers to agree with them that things need to change and they organize a riot. These riots always fail (except the August Riot of 2018. That was a bit... too successful) and usually result in a lot of corpses, blood, and heavy workload for the Recruitment Department.

uh yeah i think that's just about everything i wanted to talk about... can't really find a good way to segue into a conclusion so uh yeah bye.

#ghelter aquatic #world building #worldbuilding #drawing #lore #exposition #oc lore #i guess #i suppose the way i'm doing worldbuilding it's just really in depth oc lore #even though that fish fella is not actually the oc in question #the oc is #kosi neuer #who is not mentioned once in this post except for the paper he wrote

IN CONVERSATION WITH:TEFOFFLINE

Tefo Kosie best known as Tefoffline is a 20-year-old rapper, producer, and upcoming mixing engineer from Kanye, Ga Maila.

With the release of his mixtape 'Tomorrow Might Be Too Late' last December, he has further solidified his place as one of the most exciting new-age rappers in Botswana.

Where did you grow up?

Well, I moved around a lot when I was growing up you know. Initially born in Kanye, I lived in Gabs for a good 8 years before moving to Mahalapye for like a year or so. Then I came back to the south, living in Molepolole for 4 years before moving to where I live now which is somewhere around the city.

How did you get into music?

I think I've always had a musical inclination from a very young age, mostly because of the music my parents was bumping. I was like 4 or 5 when I used to go into their room and play Michael Jackson and Johnny Mokhali CDs. In terms of Rap and Hip-Hop records, my uncles put me on man. During school holidays I used just get dumped at their places and these dudes was playing a whole lotta rap shit at the time. You know your Lil Wayne, Nicki, Drake and Rick Ross, those are the 4 niggas who properly introduced me to this Hip-Hop stuff. In terms of my rapping, I wrote my first ever rap at 9 while living in Mahalapye. But what had urged me to write a verse was the fact that me and my friends at the time had a thing we did after school where we'd rap and just talk about Hip-Hop stuff for hours on end before we all went home. We used to do like other niggas verse's you know like the stuff that was popular at the time and really just stuff we liked until one day i decided to surprise these dudes and rap my own shit that I wrote. It went as well as expected and I been kickin it since.

How did you come up with the name Tefoffline?

I went on a long ass sabbatical in like 2021 just to get off social media and get my mind right and tbh, that was most amount of work I did, music-wise and just life-wise. Basically, thats where it came from. I felt like I worked better off my phone and the internet as a whole, so I just merged that with my name. It just took me back to how I used to make music before I encountered phones and shit. Back then it was just my imagination, pen, and diary, and I was the most efficient working under those conditions. I think I was going through a name change type situation at the time and I just didn't want a regular name that everybody had or some typical white man's name like nah. I needed to bring it home as well. I like that I included my real name in there because it just added to the authenticity. Real shit.

When did you start releasing music?

I only started dropping music in 2021 and to be honest anytime I think about it I can't help but laugh. I was in the kitchen one morning at like 9am and I was like 'Yo kana I did this other joint yesterday, maybe I should drop it, and I did and it went crazy. I think that when I really decided to go all in after seeing all the good things everybody had to say about my shit.

How would you describe your style of music?

Right now I won't lie i'd say I'm making some real stoner music. Like stoner anthems fr but seriously I'd say it's like a mix of alt-rap with jazzy elements and the truth really. That's what I describe it as because it's really music about my life you know, the ins and outs, ups and downs, the weird shit, everything. I look at it more like confessions in a way.

What inspires the style of music you make?

A whole bunch of things tota. I like music combinations and rhythms that aren't conventional. The regular shit is hard as well but I never really wanna limit my references. Niggas like MF DOOM, Earl, and MIKE been inspiring and continue to inspire the music I been making to this point. If you look closely, all these cats have a thing in common: they produce and rap. So that's the school I came from. Tota hela anything goes with me. I'm a big house music fan as well so I'd say that inspires my shit too.+

What inspired your recent mixtape?

Life has a funny way of showing you who the boss is. I guess I was just going through that shit and decided to document it. Like I said I see it as billy would say, Truth Rap, so for me it was an easy thing to write the records. The hard part was outgrowing the tracks. It's like you can't get that first feeling on a track you've been working on for 2 years so it took me a while to get it done but all in all it was a good experience man. I went through some stuff and if you listen to the music you'll hear it. Everything is on the music.

How was the process of creating it?

Man, it was like any project to be honest. It's like you develop a new love for creating and you're almost always excited for the first few months. But then it becomes routine and it gets mixed up with other bad routines in your life prompting you to try to escape or change that. I ain't gonna lie that shit got me off course for a good while. Just focused on living my life. Writer's block became a hassle at a point and I was nearly like 'F this' but you know, that's how it be. I really had fun man but truthfully I've been over that project for a good while.

Vocal layering seems to be a common aspect in a handful of your tracks..would you consider that a part of your signature sound?

Yeah definitely. I used to make tracks without adlibs and backings cause I had a different perspective on what music should sound like. But you know, with time, you grow and learn and I just decided to incorporate all that into the records. I really love music with good backings and adlibs, not even just rap, so it was more of an 'I'm making the shit I like to hear' type of vibe. That's just how I move with my music. I know what I want in terms of the sonic direction, so I just do it myself. Even with the latest project where that kinda thing is prominent, I knew how I wanted it to sound like 2 years ago. I just had to practice and implement that knowledge.

Is there anything you're doing apart from rapping?

Yeah, I'm a student currently about to get my bag, soon. I do a little music journalism for my school magazine focusing on music, but besides school, I have a couple of business ventures I plan to implement, especially this year. I'm a business dude at heart, even though I never studied it. I've always loved the fact that you could make money from your own ideas on your own terms, so I won't dwell too much on that but yeah. I also recently started officially heading a little label imprint called 4EVAFADED, which comprises the people responsible for the success of my tape and my music in general, my niggas idyllicsoul and Rxssi on production, as well as fellow rapper NovSon who's a young MC trynna make moves as well. I'm what you call a Renaissance man in a way, I just have a little trouble with laying out all the pieces because it gets messy.

Any local acts that you find exciting?

There's tons; I wouldn't even know where to start. My favorite rappers right now would have to be Nikky Dymondz, banzai, Jesonyana, Chrysus, OneTake 267, and my boy NovSon just to name a few. In terms of singers and vocalists, I have been messing with that Magadi single (Backseat Headrush), Sebaga got some really cool-sounding projects, Fourteen'O'Six is hard af, Courtney got that one track, and how could I forget spacerover and Chubbs (Lucas Chubbs). Oh I fuck with Pablo and Xortic as well. Them niggas is crazy like I won't even say much, but I'm sure I'll be able to experience most of these artists because I was privy to meeting some more amazing acts last year. So maybe my list will change in a few. I just had to give you a few because I can't really think of some right now, but I'm a huge fan of local shit. It really is my bread and butter.

Any thoughts on where the music game is going?

I really think everyone is getting to do anything they want especially sound-wise. I feel like we're not confined to doing what pleases labels or whatever so it's more of a whole group of niggas just making music they really mess with not because they have to make that stuff. So I think you know, with that kind of freedom, the landscape changes over time. I also love the fact that dudes like Saigo (saigotheeditor) have been able to do the photography stuff and shows to basically accompany the music, practically building aesthetics for the sonics, so a big shout to my guy Lerroy, that's my guy.

Do you have anything you're working on right now?

Yeah most definitely, but the stuff I'm making right now I wonder if they gon' like it, because it's some weird shit man. That's all i'm going to say for now. Oh! and I did a couple of features that I hope will be out this year with some amazing artists. Sometimes I don't even believe I did that but you know, I did.

Speaking of features, you are featured on 'The World Is Yours' by Nov Son, how was the experience of working on your first collaboration?

It was really cool. One of the easiest and laid back collabs I did. He hit me up and was like 'We need to get in the studio' and I was down fr. My nigga Idyllic was working with him as well, so it just made things easier but yeah he was recording some songs from his upcoming album and we knocked a couple out the park. Watch out for that project btw. That was also when I met my nigga Rxssi; they was moving as a unit back then so I just decided to mess with them and what they did because normally I just keep to myself and do shit on my own or with like 1 or 2 of the homies. It's a very personal thing for me. People probably think I hate collabs or something, but they're so hard to get done because of the different mindframes, schedules, and shit but I always try to make sure I work with other artists because I believe we work better together.

hey yall i’m working on a new video game!!

this one is a short visual novel following the character shown above. while this one isnt going to be a straight educational game, it still deals heavily with disability and mental health

[summary: kosis is set in a fictional world, full of magical mushroom forests, quiet villages, and adorable animals. but something isn’t right. one day our lovely hero stumbles across an old temple in the forest, that’s full of ... bones? and a gigantic skull? and DEMONS??

the demons tell our hero that this world grows from the bodies of ancient titans felled in an apocalyptic war. the biggest problem? the titans are trying to come back, and our hero doesn’t have much time to save their village

kosis is a game about perception, mental health, and the power of support]

i’ll try to keep updates coming on here as i progress! they’ll all be collected under the tag “kosis game” for easy tracking ^^

[ID: several concept arts for an indie video game. the first is of the title art. it is the word “kosis” in an original font. the letters have a dark blue/green border, and inside look like mottled, mossy stone. the “i” looks glitched, with streaks coming off one side and the letter filled with noisy speckles

image 2 is various fictional animals. there is a green and purple creature that looks like a cross between a cricket and a frog, a blue and lavender rabbit-like creature, and a orange, tabby-striped cat-like creature with four horns instead of ears and six legs

image 3 is six different color palettes for the main character. they have bangs, hair that swoops out at the sides, light purple skin, and a pear shaped body. they are wearing a striped turtleneck with no sleeves, and poofy pants.

image 4 shows three demons. the demons are done in monochrome and various shades of red. they are made up of unconnected shapes and are not easily comprehensible as creatures. they are not so much scary as very strange and alien. end ID]

#game dev #GameDev #indie game #actually disabled #rpg maker #kosis game #i'll be posting updates as i go #including a post talking more about the concept under a spoiler warning #i'll space it out though i dont want to flood yall #so watch this space if youre interested!!#i'll be posting art & screenshots & other stuff #also if theres anything specific anyone is interested in feel free to send an ask as always

hold on i am going to over-analyse the call of the cryptolith book

I am convinced that Savek killed Kosis due to the whispers persuading her that she should, because I’m pretty sure it was completely unnecessary without context and she could’ve easily become wrathborn without killing Kosis in particular

Going off of what the young dreg said: "Those born only to live cannot see eternity, nor are they welcome here. If you dwell on that which is beyond your grasp you-", basically translating to Savek only surviving (she’s a dreg, ether is scarce + sleep deprived) and is entirely dependent on Kosis rationing out ether i.e dwelling on that which is beyond her grasp. Savek’s also jealous of Kosis being able to have healthy amounts of ether for herself, and if the whispers are attempting to take Savek and ‘welcome her’ then she’d have to do more than just barely live, which means getting rid of the obstacle - Kosis, or any authority (even though she doesn’t need the ether anymore at that point, but it’s like metaphorical in a sense) so it’s like the whispers gave her a whole revenge story to go off of? Well the conversation she had with it probably went along similar lines, and i wouldn’t out it past the whispers to have told the rest of the crew the same thing since starving dregs are easy victims to manipulate

Also the hive artifact was specifically targeting Savek because it was her who heard the whispers first during her shift. it only really spread to the rest of them because Kosis told them to take it apart for spider’s interest, even though she very well knew about hive horrors (whirlwind, destruction of riis). Later she regrets making them interact with the artifact but really it was her own greed that blinded her and it all would have been avoidable, for her crew at least

Kosis’s dying thoughts being the Kell of Kells really drives home the message of the regret she had for leaving her ketch, her family and her daughters. The Prophecy of Rain stating the unision of all houses under one banner will be crowned Kell of Kells just hammers the possibilities of Kosis treasuring her family - being united with them. Also Kosis saying “Another mistake, and we leave you behind." to Savek and it being “less literal and more a euphemism mutated over time through Eliksni cultural drift” reiterates how she left behind her ketch. AND the way that leaving Savek behind is complete exaggeration kind of makes me think that Kosis sees her (and her crew) as family!

In the end, maybe Kosis did get to see her daughters after death, and maybe that’s the closest thing to dignity she would have.

#beyond light spoilers #call of the cryptolith #<tagging because im talking abt it a lot #text #eliksni #<I SPENT TOO MUCH TIME ANALYSING THIS FOR IT TO NOT BE IN THE TAG.... FORGIVE ME #savek #kosis

Kosi of Night

(Written for @flashfictionfridayofficial‘s prompt: FFF61: Wild and Free. Set in the small offshoot of superheroverse. Enjoy!)

The threads in Kosi’s loom snapped to a halt. Kosi did not look up, but the embroidery across her shoulders started to shift, moving lower and thickening, going from delicate flowers to unbreakable coverage over her ribs.

When Kosi finally speaks, she still doesn’t look Siren in the eye. “I trust you have figured out who Nekoma Kohari is.”

Siren shrugs and sits down. “It wasn’t that hard to guess.”

“Reso says I can come home?” Kosi’s voice is tinged with sadness and her fingers twitch once.

“He says you can go back to where you once lived, yes.” Siren says, leaning back to watch the shifting threads across Kosi’s back. They note the goosebumps fluttering along Kosi’s neck where her hair doesn’t cover. “He said specifically that he came because he didn’t really believe you died in the fire.”

“They wouldn’t have found a body, that’s true.” Kosi whispers. They sit in silence for a while and when Kosi next moves, the loom starts moving again, it’s rhythmic thuds more subdued than usual.

“You know, once I would have given anything to be able to go back there.” Kosi says, not looking up from her loom. The pattern forming across the loom has changed, colours darkening. Siren doesn’t look at Kosi’s face.

“You don’t have to. You realise. You can stay and Aniko and Nocte can provide whatever other aid that Reso is seeking.” Siren keeps their voice soft and gentle. “As far as anyone is concerned, Nekoma Kohari died in that fire. None of us know a Nekoma Kohari. We can help Reso and then send him on his merry way.”

“Is it weird that I want to take you up on that?” Kosi looks up and her eyes are wet with tears. “I just- I want to be free. I want to leave Nekoma Kohari dead. Like-“

Kosi puts the loom down gently, then throws her hands across her eyes. “As Kosi- as Kosi, I can do more. I can weave things that have meaning and that make a difference and protect people. I can make things pretty and I can- I don’t know it’s like the entire House of Night right, like I can make beautiful things because they’re beautiful? Because I want to experiment with thread and I know that what I’m doing helps other people? And all in a way that I never could, not as Nekoma. Because I believe in what the House tries to fight for and I like to see how everything I make makes a difference. And it means more, and Nekoma. Past Nekoma would hate that I’m leaving Reso behind. That I’m leaving the rest of my family behind because hey, we all got hurt and scared and just. I don’t know.”

Siren looks at Kosi with the grace of someone who has also had to grow up too fast.

“It’s the difference between surviving and living, huh?” Siren says when Kosi finally stops and just throws her hands up.

“Yeah.” Kosi says after a long pause.

“I’ll tell Reso that we wish him luck in finding Nekoma then.” Siren stands up. Kosi turns to stare at them.

“But I’m right here.”

Siren quirks an eyebrow. “I only see Kosi.”

They tuck their staff back into their coat with one smooth motion and leap off the railing to land below the balcony on their own balcony.

Kosi sits there for a while before she shakes her head and starts laughing.

Where dead people live, indeed.

cool lines from the original idea:

“Freedom is more than the ability to choose your prison.”

‘Why do you do this if you’re a doctor?’ ‘I do this because I’m a doctor.”

Reso exhales slightly and removes his ear from the door only to hear, “In this house, if we want to hear something, we ask the people speaking and sit comfortably to listen if we’re invited.”

I ship you more with Jay than Bella. Bella is kinda needy and whines a lot. Not much to be desired there. But the Joy ship is fantastic!

I mean. That’s your own opinion. It’s the same with tv shows. People ship different people. It’s the same with Harry Potter. People ship SO MANY DIFFERENT PEOPLE! But… there isn’t really any need to bash a ship. And there’s also no reason to be rude about Bella. I understand that you have your own opinion. And I respect that. But we aren’t fictional characters. We’re real people with real feelings. And saying that Bella is whiny and needy isn’t a very nice thing to say. You can prefer Joy over Jello. That totally totally fine. But some people love Jello over joy. And some people like Kosie over both. And some people like Eggo over all three of those. That doesn’t make any of them bad, or better than the other. It’s peoples opinions. But they’re opinions about real people. And I would ask that, maybe the next time you want to tell me you like joy, you don’t drag another person down. Here’s an example: “I ship you and jay the most out of all your ships! You two are so cute and sweet together!” See? No being mean, no bashing another living person. Just kindness and support. Would you keep that in mind? It would keep my blog a happier place, where people can feel free to ship me with whoever they want 😂Love you, anon. Let’s try to be kind in the future! 👍🏼

Weird Weird West Session 3

@cuyguy‘s Summary and Intro to the next episode “Questions”

After a night of variable amounts of sleep between them, the Yeehaws and the Sheriff decide to divide their forces. Sheriff Kosi is still struck by little Hope Croshaw being the only observer of the shadow creature and returns to the Croshaw farm to talk to her again. Brook and Duncan meanwhile descend once more into the mine in an attempt to find the reason for the creature lingering down there.

In the abandoned tunnels, they once more find the creature, but this time they surprise it in a seemingly dormant state. The sudden light of Brooke's lantern appears to actually harm it before it rapidly reforms itself into a humanoid shape once more... a shape in which it is hurt by Duncan's revolver fire instead. Injured, the creature flees deeper into the tunnel and the Yeehaws give chase. A chase that eventually leads them into a much much older structure, a tunnel lined with dizzying and foreboding brickwork(?) spiral(!) shapes that ends in an equally disquieting room containing - one cracked urn on a pedestal - 12 empty indentations around the urn - one row of reliefs documenting the story of a dark being seemingly absorbing a number of humanoid beings until the last survivor surrounds it with unknown objects taken from the lost humanoids' graves Unwilling to just fuck around and find out and potentially worsen the situation, the Yeehaws leave the ancient structure for now to reconvene with Mandlenkosi and hatch a plan.

But this is not the only mystery to solve. In their quest for answers about their lost time, the Yeehaws have also found hints at the involvement of an old... acquaintance of Estabrook's, another shapeshifting animal, the Honeybadger. An item acquired before the Yeehaws 'came to' that could potentially ward (or piss) this person off; and a claim from Hope that she was taught how to 'summon' (patently ridiculous) Brook for help by just that person.

Is the Honeybadger involved in their memory loss, in the shadow creature, in both, or neither? Can the Yeehaws destroy the creature, seal it for good, or merely collapse the mine once more hoping to delay its next escape? Is the creature a threat to Hope, to her father Jeremiah who may or may not have released it in the first place, or to the entire town?

The only way to find out is to return to the Croshaw Farm and get some actual answers...
