every time someone says scc are worthless characters in deltarune i feel my soul wither away more and more

#prince thoughts #i don't even know how to rationalize how people think that #of course . bias . but #like . i get maybe not finding interest in them that's fine i understand #but like . they're not worthless . yeah they're not vital to the story like jevil or spamton but . do they have to be ? #does every character have to be ? does every character have to further the plot ? be as deep as spamton and jevil are ? #cant there just be . guys who are silly and have fun ? guys who make tunes and run a junk shop ? who are just silly robot darkners ? #and yes . i know i've made my own backstories for them . but the idea is that . in the base game of deltarune -> #they're literally just fun loving dj robots . do they have to be deep . do they have to have a deeper meaning #once again . i get if they're not your kind of character . but labeling them as completely worthless as characters is . it hurts ok #toby loved them all so much to the point he had all 3 sample designs put into the game . #and instead of relegating them to a role like swatch or seam they got to be bosses . they got their own battle theme . #they get to be reoccurring throughout the game . nelnal loves to make comics and art of them . they are made out of love . #sorry i'm getting sentimental i love scc so much . nobody understands their significance like i do

hey love! what does a Plutonian chart look like? i'm not sure if I have one. how would that affect me?

Strong influence of Pluto…

What a strong Plutonian influence of Pluto in the chart could look like:

Pluto in the 1st, 4th, 7th and 10th house

Pluto aspecting inner planets (Mercury, Venus and Mars)

Pluto strongly aspecting the moon and ascendant, especially tight orbs

TW: mentions of s*x and death!!

Being Pluto dominant or having a strong influence of Pluto means that transformations, ego deaths, feelings of death and rebirth will accompany you for a life time. From my experience, this will be especially harsh in the childhood, youth and maybe in your early adult years. As time passes and as you get older, you might develop self care habits and safety mechanisms to protect yourself and your inner peace. Practising self love, meditation and mindfulness could be important to these individuals, as they could underestimate their beauty and their outstanding personality.

I’ve also seen that most traumatic events happen in the childhood, youth or early adulthood. But that’s just my observation.

Feelings of being deeply misunderstood rise while you are young and this feeling might follow you for years. Constantly searching for someone to understand your complex mind and depth of emotions. These people could benefit from searching for a valve to turn pain, bad experiences and any form of built up emotion into art. Be it writing, drawing, making music…

A reoccurring theme for Plutonians is sexuality. There may be blockages in regards of the own sexuality or experiencing it, but once they overcome this, they literally start to bloom in that area. This could turn into being hungry for power in general (or simply being turned on by overpowering the partner) or in being lascivious. They can be pretty much extreme and freaky in bed, actually. Being intimate never gets boring with them.

I know, this is what you read everywhere, but plutonic people are deeply magnetic and will catch your eye with their intense aura. Even if they are not seen as traditionally beautiful, these natives exude attractiveness and charisma. You just can’t ignore them and they will even stand out in a crowd. BUT! A lot of them don’t have the sex appeal like (for example) Megan Fox has. A lot of them have such an innocence to their appearance, but if you take a closer look you’ll see that they’re like fallen angels.

From my experience, plutonic people will have a deep connection to spirituality or the occult and a profound interest in psychology (for good and bad). They usually get into these things after really hard times in their life. They will attract jealousy and hate like flies, unfortunately and this could take a toll in their self esteem. Even strangers tend to be very competitive and mean to them in some way, because most people simply feel challenged by their presence.

Dear plutonic people,

you ALL are wonderful and you deserve so much more. I feel for every single one of you and I hope you will find true happiness and self acceptance. You’ve been through so much and you deserve the world for all that. I’m sending you all the love you might need right now or later! 🩶

Atalanta #1 "The Mother Goddess and the she-bear"

In the kingdom of Arkadia, the King Lasion, preferring a boy, orders his newborn daughter to be taken into the forest and left to die from exposure. The attendant takes the baby into the hills of Mount Parthenium, leaving the child near a cave spring, sending up a prayer for the child. The wild hunter goddess, Artemis, ever the protector of children, sends her sacred she-bear, who, having recently lost her own cub, comes upon the child, offering the nourishment of her milk.

Although the Atalanta myth has its roots in Arkadia (south west Greece) and Boetia, with the themes of motherhood and protection, I have also included the more exotic statue of the Mother goddess of the “Artemis of Ephesus” (west coast of Turkey.) I have had the pleasure to see this statue in person, and it is truly breathtaking. The statue, representing a goddess who protects fertility, has spherical objects placed around her lower torso, once thought to be breasts, but now believed to be bull’s testicles or gourds, which were symbolic for fertility in ancient times in Asia.

Unwanted children being taken into nature to die from exposure is a reoccurring theme in Greek myths. The Trojan Prince Paris was abandoned to die in the wilderness, and was also suckled by a she-bear. Oedipus mother Jocasta, agreed to have the child pinned down with a stake through the ankles, and left to die upon the mountainside, but the attendant couldn’t go through with it, giving the child to a poor shepherd. Even Heracles mother, Alcmene left the child in a field, fearing Hera’s wrath.

So.. what's the deal with the cartoon network crossover? 👀

I'm glad you sent an ask I was originally going to make a separate post lol

The AU spawned from wanting to do my own take on FusionFall, which then became a fighting game, then the gameplay was reworked into an original idea and the designs of the CN characters were reworked into a comic. Since it started as a fighter that meant I had planned out separate stages for each franchise, as opposed to one uniform setting such as CN City or the popular shared school au. The fighter didn't really have a plot I just came up with the explanation that the kids are all KND (or TeenND) members and were just having a sparing match and the adult characters were somehow targets or smth. Now the current iteration is most the characters are just on the same planet and become involved in some way or another (probably the KND still). The reoccurring theme is just trying to find people like you.

The most clear idea I've had is between PPG and Ben 10; the girls are known around the world and Ben (and Gwen) feeling lonely want to meet other super hero kids their age. Grandpa Max reminds them they are still strangers and that Ben and Gwen have to keep their identities secret, but does some research into the girls and Professor Utonium and recognizes how he still value's their privacy. Max then tries to get in contact with Utonium to see if getting the kids together would even be a good idea. Utonium himself also recognizes the girls have tried to find other super hero kids to hang out with, but both he and Max spend like a year over email trying to see if they can even trust each other lmao. Eventually after the two meet up (and Max knows he can trust them with the alien thing) they agree to set up a playdate and the focus then moves to the kids as they interact.

Ben and Gwen are like uhhhh aged between the original and Alien Force. Kevin is also there but I want to write a different intro for him that involves Gwen more.

The girls I've pictured as this; Blossom handles the fame best of the 3 and also is the best when it comes to the press while Buttercup and Blossom prefer to stand back. While she is good at being the ideal Powerpuff Girl, she has ambitions in the same science as her father and struggles to balance the two. Buttercup still enjoys the art of fighting the most, and goes on the most solo missions, but gets treated unfairly for her more masculine behavior and has to deal with fitting in with neither girls nor boys. Bubbles also has to deal with unfair treatment by being undermined for being the most girlish (there is no winning) but lacks a hobby like the other two (though she has some artistic merit). She may be the loneliest of the three as a result. Although they all still share a good friend in Robin. Bubbles and Buttercup get along better than they did as kids, though Blossom doesn't want them to feel like she's ignoring the two.

For the sake of simplicity the ending of KND and the G:KND storyline with Nigel being shot into space is ignored. The KND as an organization is trying to expand the TND upon seeing the teen's potential for rebellion. They lack a way to regain old KND members back, so they go out trying to recruit teens while they wait for current KND members to just age up. Sector V was selected for TND and go out and try and recruit new members. The ideas I have for them involve the awkward wait between the V members going 12 -> 13 years and transitioning between jobs. My personal hc was that in the show at one point it's Kuki and Wally at 10, Nigel at 11, then Hoagie and Abby at 12, with Kuki being the youngest and Abby the oldest. During and after this transition phase they are sent out on recruitment missions which is where the crossover stuff comes in.

Hoagie is sent to see if either Dexter or Mandark is available. Mandark is a dick but Dexter get points knocked down for getting funding from the adult-run NASA. It turns into another ego battle between Dexter and Mandark while Hoagie has to deal with the two rich kids. Dee Dee is there to fuck with all 3 of them and is the one that gets recruited. Hoagie probably also treats this like a sports movie or smth.

The Time Squad sometime in the future are homeschooling Otto, they try to get him socializing with kids his age during missions but think that he should be spending time with kids from his century. Otto has been researching not just history but what happens after his time as well. He wants to meet heroes when they were his age.

I have A LOT of ideas for the Eds but most of it isn't crossover material. But I like the idea of them just accidentally walking into other shows, Courage or Foster's in particular.

The world in this AU is basically only limited by shows with hugely conflicting lore. That's vague but that mostly means like, the Land of Ooo conflicts with most shows. So to justify AT it's like. An alternate Earth and somehow Finn finds his way to this one and loses his shit over other humans. While he's glad to find kids like him Jake worries that Finn may prefer this world to Ooo and that he may leave. Jake is all ready to come to terms with this and Finn is like dude what we have only been here for 5 hours.

Billy and Mandy are mostly antags like in the KND crossover. I have a super vague idea for Billy somehow giving up Grim to other kids and they keep trading him for like a corn chip, and while other toon guys go on adventures with the reaper, Mandy drags Billy with her to get Grim back. At some point Numbuh 1 meets the Regular Show crew I forgot to draw and his world view is shattered. Gumball and Darwin are there. Etc.

I'd probably prioritize the first PPG and Ben 10 story as the clearest I got rn. But otherwise I'd love to see other people's crossover stuff and just old CN or cartoons in general.

#cartoon network #i may need to come up with a name for this sort of project #powerpuff girls #ppg #ben 10 #knd #dexter's laboratory #time squad #fhfif #eene #eh i wont tag the stuff not with a drawing #myart #asks #i will 100% end up going back and editing this

alright whats this artdrone killbot thing

hi. You will regret asking this

The Murderbot Diaries is a series of books about a human-bot construct that was designed to essentially exist as an enslaved security guard / piece of sentient spyware. It's like if Alexa had half a human brain and a gun. We're introduced to Murderbot (the murder alexa) roughly 3 years after it's hacked the piece of hardware in it's brain that forces it to obey commands. In those 3 years it hasn't changed much about it's life except now while working as a subhuman slave it watches tv when no one is paying attention. As a series TMBD largely is about themes of personhood and discovering yourself when you have largely spent your life being denied the right to a sense of self. They also don't shy away from addressing the trauma that Murderbot has experienced from having it's autonomy stripped of it for most of it's life, with the second novella and most recent novel most heavily featuring that as an element. (Although that is a core aspect of Murderbot's character that informs its decisions throughout the entire series).

Murderbot as a character is bitingly sarcastic and witty, deeply paranoid and ultimately filled with the constant low level anxiety it doesn't know what it's doing (not necessarily moment by moment but overall, with it's freedom, with it's life). It's an excellent unreliable narrator because it only tells you exactly what it thinks is important in a scenario, relationships between other characters, physical features of itself and the people around it, it's own emotions and reactions often being completely brushed over with only occasional clues, and often outright misinterpreting people's actions, most often it's own. It has this ever present self loathing in the first several books where it constantly explains it's actions away in the least charitable interpretation possible even though we see time and time again that at it's core it deeply wants to help and protect the people around it. And we see over the course of the books as it starts learning how to make choices for itself and interacting with people who treat it with respect and develops a support system as it starts to move away from that mindset (with the exception of the most recent book but to be fair to MB System Collapse is about it being forced to confront it's PTSD and it's backsliding alot from recently being thrown back into a situation from its worst nightmares). I said before its a human-bot construct to explain that it isn't purely an inorganic being but Murderbot is a deeply inhuman character and openly has no desire to be human, and it's perspective as something that is made to be a security system and enmesh into both digital and hardwired surveillance is fascinating to read. As you know I deeply deeply love robots, they're my favorite kind of 'inhuman but still a Person' kind of character and Murderbot perfectly strikes the balance between a starkly in human way of thinking and deeply relatable emotions that draws me to robots as a whole, especially as an autistic person (and Murderbot was intentionally written with autistic traits but in a subversion of the typical ableist depiction of autistic robots so that EXTRA rings true lmao)

seeing as you mentioned it I will also explain ART as a character, ART is one of the reoccurring characters in the series (the first 3 novellas all have completely different casts outside of Murderbot itself as it hops from place to place trying to decide what it wants and who it is before in the fourth novella and beyond bringing back in previous characters and having them start to overlap throughout the rest of the series). It was introduced in the second book and is arguably the character that has the greatest impact on Murderbot as a person although I say arguably bc I would personally still say that's Mensah. Unarguably tho it is one of the most important people in Murderbot's life and has been described multiple times now by the author as the love of its life (although not necessarily in a romantic sense as Murderbot is both within text and confirmed via word of god acearo). ART (Asshole Research Transport) also known as the Perihelion (although not until the 5th book/first novel bc Murderbot doesn't bother to tell tell the readers its name until then, instead deciding its a dick so its gonna exclusively call it by an insult) is a spaceship's pilot AI, made to be sentient instead of the usual smart GPS as an experiment by the university is was made by. It was raised like a child by a pair of scientists who are now part of its crew (along with its sibling Iris) and now is a teaching vessel for students learning about deep space and also anticorporate espionage worker (don't worry about it). It's a giant pushy asshole unless you're a child (the only character we've ever seen it meet on screen it didn't in some way immediately threaten was a 16 yo). It can't watch tv without having to pause at the suspenseful bits to calm down. We're introduced to it by it threatening to melt Murderbot's mind and then pouting when it's scared shitless. It then a month later asks to do surgery on it. It fully intends to blow up a planet to get Murderbot back from a group of colonists that captured it until someone talks it out of it because that isn't effective hostage negotiation.

#the murderbot diaries #there are five novellas and two novels btw I couldn't think how to include that naturally in the block of text

Do you have any advice for getting back into art/drawing? It feels overwhelming

It seems to be a reoccuring theme lately based on so many artists' comments I've seen lately.

I think you just need to allow yourself to rest first as much as needed. Drawing isn't going to go anywhere and if it's not your primary source of income so that you NEED to draw every single day whether you want it or not, then rest.

I have heard this tip; when returning back to drawing after a pause, draw just shapes. Triangles, circles, ovals, squares, hearts, stars. Aimlessly just draw to wake up your brain and muscles. You can keep doing this as long as you want.

Other tip, mainly for inspiration, I encountered was to draw just random shapes. Even better, draw them with colors. Then, try to draw these shapes into something tangible; this one is a bear, this one if a sunset, this one is a plant, this one is a cat with a hat.

Coloring coloring book images might also work. Sometimes when I can't draw I find that I enjoy aimless coloring.

My friend, who works in a creative field and has to be able to produce creative stuff daily, year after year, refills her inspiration and energy tanks by going to check other art than what she needs to make. She also visits museums and exhibitions a lot - and listen to a lot and lot of music! For her, it's inspiring to see what other artists are doing with their own mediums. I also heard at work Finland's famous astrophysicists Syksy Räsänen. He said that while he works in theoretic physics and cosmology, what inspires his own work is art. He goes to exhibitions, plays, musicals, movies etc. and he reads lots of books from different professionals. He's motto seems to be that while someone else works in a completely different field, it doesn't mean that he couldn't find something inspiring there. This he can take to theoretic physics and cosmology.

So, in short, I guess, I would say that see how other people think. Maybe something there sparks your desire to draw. Or at least imagine! Imagination is also very important. Not all images need to be brought to life but I believe it's still important for all of us to spend time in the world of imagination to be happier and healthier.

What works the best for me is to rest as much as possible and get obsessed with something I want to draw all my waking hours. Too bad last time I was that obsessed was years ago. I honestly think that drawing FUZZY so intensively permanently broke me in some way... And it's OK. Sometimes we break and might not be able to return where we used to be, but art has never been and never should be a competition. It's a leisure.

hello famed tumblr artist and murder drones enjoyer "ourple." may i inquire as to the meaning behind your latest masterpiece "one little pill" painted with acrylic on canvas? (also you don't gotta apologize for taking breaks yk. you're givin all this to us for free)

Hello anon also from tumblr!

Oh boy I’m about to unpack one of my biggest original art themes of the last four years of my life.

So I have a mental disorder, I don’t specify because I’m not comfortable with that yet.

But I have personified that illness (and its symptoms) in my art as these beastly dogs/wolves ALOT, it’s a reoccurring concept of my personal art

In the last couple of months I have gotten a diagnosis and gotten medicated and am now in remission (after 4 years yay! I’ve been celebrating)

While I’m happy I’m in remission and on a somewhat stable treatment plan, I’m sure others have felt this too, it’s kind of upsetting knowing your health and your capability to function is resting on, well- a medication. (Or, hence the title, on “one little pill”)

Anyway, another art piece about mah life 💜

(If you want to see any of my other artwork in this series they’re all tagged “them gallery”)
