Beam Saber update: here’s the first draft of Sunlith’s frame! I still need to add weapons and design the hatch mechanism that accommodates and connects to his exopod (the floating ‘suit’ some uplifted dolphins wear to get around outside water - if you look closely you can see Sunlith inside the pod!)
A fanfic idea I've always had for HalBarry that I've BEEN WANTINGGG to write is a mission dealing with the Music Meister but the whole thing turns into confessing to each other about how they feel infront of everyone but through a musical style. Music Meister's power is being able to sing and control people to sing AND dance. I also want to mix the ability of CW Music Meister, his powers contain the ability of creating this figment that is like a sorta daydream sequence. (That's so silly and cool I love it and he's also my favorite villain in general but there's barely anything on him)
I'm still debating what songs they would sing but it would be based on how they feel INTERNALLY and through complex topics like what they are worried about. For example, from gaining the feeling that they'd lose the other if confessing was the way or being afraid of saying the truth directly to someone OR entering a relationship at all. ("What would they say? How would they react? What do I look like to them??" etc. etc.)
Give the other JL members little song sequences and singing. 'If Only He Can Love Me' duet between Dinah and Ollie in Brave and The Bold... OR BRUCE BEING ABLE TO SING. ARTHUR TOO, he's so silly in that episode.
I'm also including Music Meister HEAVILY from 'Mayhem of The Music Meister!' from Batman: The Brave And The Bold S1 E25. Having Neil Patrick Harris be Music Meister for that...I'm amazing. ANDDD AND, the fact that Neil also played Barry Allen in DC: The New Frontier film
ok ive been thinking about the HG fam au more and. what if since pearl, gem, and impulse were all members of the rebellion, and scar and cub both served king ren (and grian was sort of on that team too) ive bren thinking like, what if the au was set in some kind of corporate dystopia-type setting with Gigacorp as the megacorporation/government and Hotguy and Cuteguy are government-backed heroes while Hotgal and Cutegal are true vigilantes who oppose them. and since Grian also helped the Soup Group what if Cuteguy leaked some of the hotguy tech to Impulse/Gem/Pearl and thats how they were able to reverse-engineer it to become Cutegal and Hotgal. idk. thoughts. runs away
Dude I love this!!! It also works so well with where I am rn cause I did some mostly canon outfit mockups for Scar and Grian and didn't like them cuz they seemed too boring. So I redid them as more fun bug fits. BUT if Cuteguy and Hotguy start off as government funded heros and later turn to Gem and Pearl's team (Grian first then Scar) then they could have the drab outfits AND get fun bug fits for the vigilante team!
Maybe Grian leaking information gets revealed and it's this dramatic moment where they try to arrest him but he escapes and joins Soup Group. And then Scar is left trying to figure out what to do because he trusted Grian! And now he doesn't know how to feel abt Gigacorp OR Grian. Could be really fun!!
Upd. I am doing better but won't delete it because archiving purposes and I like to reread stuff like that as diary entries and think "haha what a feeble minded fool i was"
I've had several things happening in every aspect of my life recently that are stressing me out and above my tolerance threshold and I'm just so exhausted from it and lack of sleep and appetite and headaches it's been causing, that I'm just burying myself in work and trying not to think about anything but art I'm working on at any given time
*collapses* I have spent. The last six days straight. Working nonstop. On nothing but (1) my job and (2) painting the house.
like. like. as in I woke up early, began working, and didn't stop until my body would not go on (e.g. signs of impending collapse). I have discovered energy drinks actually work! this is the only reason I got this far! I had never drank a full one before!
this is because I bought a Big House (love to make choices) that required a 50' boom lift rental to paint and that Costs Money so I had to finish everything that needed to be done with the lift in the time we had the rental
but like. I did it?? it's done?
the house isn't completely painted but like it's going to rain for the next ~week so I am using that as my excuse to not touch a can of paint again for a hot minute
I know how to use a boom lift now (pretty cool tbh)
Established rapport with my neighbor (he's a nice guy; was super chill about us needing to park the lift in his yard to do one side of the house)
discovered some particular strain of inner peace from the simple nature of reducing all of your concerns to simply Work, Paint, Food, Sleep for an extended period
did actually manage to Not exceed my limits although I did experience significant pain, minor hallucinations, and loss of balance/stability by the end of some of the days
feel like. accomplished. and weirdly like. idk. something else?
anyway so now I'm going to sleep. for the correct number of hours. and then like. put my house back together and remember how I normally conduct my life, b/c everything else fell by the wayside given the fact that exactly 100% of my time and energy was accounted for
