way old wip that i finished up just before artfight so that they'd all have decent and accurate art

[ID: a digital drawing of six anthro characters lined up. at the top it says "not a height reference," and at the bottom each of the characters are labeled, left to right, "Smoke Alarm," "Freck," "Laurel," "Ringo!" "cyx," and "Reline." Smoke Alarm is a buff black and gray wolf with dark red eyes and skin, shaggy fur, a faux-hawk, and a black forearm sleeve. Freck is a chubby white wolf with a silver head and tail, white freckles, blue eyes and skin, and spiky fur. Laurel is a champagne colored coyote with darker spots on her hips and nose, pale cyan eyes, a pale pink nose, wavy hair in a 1920s style, a choker, and pierced ears. Ringo is a white coyote with black arms and legs, green ears and tail, purple markings around his eyes, a purple nose, green eyes, and a notch out of one ear that makes it floppy. Cyx is a buff beige fox with white rings and orange tips on her paws, snout, and ears, as well as a gray tail, gray skin, and gray eyes. Reline is a thin bright red jackal with black X markings on his legs, cheeks, and shoulders, as well as yellow on his fingers, toes, tail tip, chest, chin, and eyelids. /end ID]

Castles in the Sky by Shadaras @shadaras

Fandom: 全职高手 | The King's Avatar

Rating: General Audiences

Category: Gen

Relationships: Chu Yunxiu/Ye Xiu

Words: 36 613

Here are two truths and a lie: Chu Yunxiu is Misty Rain’s captain. Chu Yunxiu is dating Ye Qiu. Chu Yunxiu is happy to have the Shu twins on her team. Of course, a lie can become true if you believe in it enough… (A Chu Yunxiu character study.)

About the book:

FONTS: Alegreya [Google Fonts], Raleway [Google Fonts], Catchy Mager [purchased from MyFonts], Segoe UI Emoji

IMAGES: Clouds from Rawpixel (ID: 9581058); Misty Rain logo from The King's Avatar Wiki (stretched slightly horizontally and traced)

MATERIALS: Domtar Earthchoice multipurpose copy paper, cream, 11"x17" cut in half to form short-grained letter size paper; Recollections' Gilded Ink paper pad; Cialux bookcloth, black; heat transfer foil, gold; 2mm binder board; waxed linen thread, 30/3 size; wheat paste (this time I used 1:4 flour to water ratio, and heated until conditioner-like consistency. An improvement over last attempt.)

PROGRAMS USED: typeset in LibreOffice Writer; title page mocked-up in Procreate then designed in GIMP; imposed with Renegade's Community Imposer.

I spied this fic towards the top of the kudos and kept it in the back of my mind while trawling for more HanYe fics. Thought, well it's gotta be there for a reason so should be good! ooh look aroace queerplatonic relationship 👀👀 Definitely bumping up to top of Read Next!

The amazing thing I've found about The King's Avatar is that the CP possibilities are endless! The characters are both friends and rivals, there's respect and history and it all mixes and clashes creating more possibilities and chemistries than I've ever seen in a fandom before. The fact that AllYe is so popular (and not just in an NSFW way) is testament to it, and also, in part, what drew me to this fic. Asexual representation is scant, aromantic even more so — especially in fandom (in my experience of it at least).

If I were to add a tag to describe Castles in the Sky it would be 'heartwarming'. Shadaras' writing and characterization is wonderful, and I really enjoyed the both the story and the aroace representation. They took a character with relatively little content (in comparison to others in fandom. I have not read the source material) and gave her a voice, dreams, and made me really care about her. I was touched, and after finishing it I jumped to my laptop and set about turning it into a physical book.

So, onto the details.

The thing that stuck out and stayed with me the most about the story was the aroace aspect (Shadaras fed my smol aroace heart so well), so that's what I focused on design-wise.

The title page features a large black ring, referencing the black ring worn usually on the middle finger of the right hand as a symbol of asexuality. The colours of the asexual pride flag are also represented: the text is purple; the clouds colour the page in shades of white and grey; and the ring is black. For the endpapers/cover backing I chose paper that mixes green, purple, and blue: green for the aromantic pride flag; purple for the ace. I also found the green-blue mix of colours to be rather fitting, inspired by the description of Misty Rain's HQ with the "cool blues and greens of Misty Rain's walls" (chapter 5: Transformations). While I personally find CYX's relationship with YX significant, her relationship with her team is just as important.

When choosing which cover each endpaper goes on, I thought about how the story begins with CYX and YX's relationship, and about how after it's established we see her team and it's future at the forefront of her mind. Following that line of thought I put the paper with more purple on the front cover (purple for aroace CYX), and the more green-blue paper on the back (Misty Rain's colours).

The process of foiling the cover took me 3 hours (the length of the movie RRR — good movie actually, would recommend. Which is surprising because I usually find Oscar movies rather boring). The foiling was done with a heat pen. Three hours is not the norm: first, I had the foil backwards and foiled my template instead of the cover; then, my power banks kept dying, so I had to take charging breaks, and I also went over everything again just to make sure that I didn't miss a spot; and of course I was also watching a movie while working, so that ate up some time too.

I had initially planned to bind it as a casebound book, but I didn't have enough time to do it (I was about to go on vacation and wanted to read the book in my downtime). Instead, I did a Coptic binding. The covers were pulled from the press and foiled leaving me 5 hours of sleep to spare.

I went simple on the outer covers to contrast the fun paper on the inside of the covers. I used black Cialux bookcloth instead of my green-blue 'petrol' Iris bookcloth for the contrast, and because it picks up the black from the title page. The text foiled onto the cover is a simple sans serif (Raleway, the same as used inside), and the image is Misty Rain's logo from the donghua. (Image came from The King's Avatar Wiki. It was stretched slightly horizontally because it seemed a bit squished compared to other versions seen on Google, and then traced). Using the colourful paper inside was a practical choice: I couldn't get two covers out of one sheet of paper, but one sheet would do the inner covers with some material leftover.

The sewing and construction of the book was done while camping — I'd packed up what I needed and brought it with me: the signatures (folded and punched); the finished covers; thread; a needle; and an awl. As for the actual sewing, it's supposed to be Coptic but don't look too closely. This was the second time I've tried Coptic stitching and I didn't have any instructions with me. (My first Coptic binding was a thin 2-signature notebook I did a few weeks ago. It was for taking notes at the event I was at, Pennsic War 50).

Book is primarily set in Alegreya. It's currently my favourite body font, and has a matching sans serif family. The fonts used in the title page are Raleway and Catchy Mager. Raleway is also used for titles, headings, etc. Segoe UI Emoji was used for any emojis that cropped up throughout the text (Pretty sure they're the same emojis as seen while reading on my phone and laptop). Catchy Mager was purchased from MyFont. (The first and only font I have ever bought, but I saw it used in a fic's title art and fell in love.)

Lastly, onto The Comedy of Errors, or: When-You-Finally-See-All-the-Typos-and-Mistakes-Once-You're-Done-and-Can-Only-Laugh-While-You-Cry-Inside.

Appendix's footer says 'Epilogue', so I must have missed something with the paragraph style for the Appendix heading.

Forgot about using Segoe UI Emoji font and did not include it in the About the Book.

Missed fixing the archive info for gnomen in the Author's Notes — the copy/paste of metadata into Notebook to remove formatting also removed the commas and spaces between tags.

Because I hadn't planned cover materials/design before printing, there isn't a section for that in the About the Book. Also the reason why the artwork on the cover is not credited in it, as I had not planned to use it.

ANYWAYS LESS SERIOUS THINGS

GUYS THE NEW HOG REWORK IS SOOOO COOL YIPPEE ITS GONNA BE SO FUN

Okay I can’t say for sure it’s gonna be perfect BUT I think it will be AND also I’ll give my full review after playing him tomorrow but so far here’s my thoughts as ROADHOG HIMSELF

Click that button mate ⤵️⤵️

My thoughts on the gun:

I wish it was mixed not just projectile. Like half hitscan half projectile but it’s not TOO bad

My thoughts on take a breather:

This is such a better way of handling take a breather then before- but a few complaints specifically that cyx also brought up.

1. You can’t tank dva bomb anymore. Which is gonna be annoying and honestly kinda just isn’t lore accurate to roadhog. He survived the omnium blowing up but can’t survive dva bomb 🤨 but it’s not too big of a deal

2. The recharge time is 12 seconds which is literally so long holy shit. An idea on how to fix that: Maybe if you deal damage it could go up faster? Idk it would be cool

My thoughts on hook being unchanged:

Perfect. I’m so glad they didn’t

My thoughts on ult being unchanged:

Idrc tbh hogs alt can either be completely useless or game saving it’s really hit or miss and in general I think keeping it was a good call

My thoughts on pig pen:

This isn’t what I was expecting at all but tbh, it sounds great! It’s gonna really help make him someone to be feared again. Im really curious on how you will be able to combo his hook and pigpen. I think it’s genuinely really really exciting. And I think it also helps bring his identity closer into his relationship with junkrat because now they literally have matching moves how cute is that?? Yeah

My thoughts on community reaction:

Some people hate it some love it and that’s okay. I understand a lot of the talk on both sides. Except two arguments against it that I’m gonna unpack

1. “Now roadhog is gonna be op!!” Yeah about time!! Do you know how long it’s been since he has been good? It’s been too long. Now he’ll actually have a chance against his counters which before playing against an Ana or Orisa could be game ruining for hog mains especially people trying to get into the character

Honestly I thought I was a good hog already but with this rework people gonna fear me >:)

2. “This isn’t even a rework just gave him a new ability!!” What? Okay so just because they kept two abilities the same it’s not a rework? They changed two of his things significantly (gun and take a breather) and gave him a new ability. That is a rework of I’ve ever seen one, but I mean okay?

Final thoughts before I get to play it,

Prepare for your worst nightmare. The hog mains are back!!!

Nobunagun Lore (after almost 10 years)

Hot damn some juicy lore tidbits dropped from the esteemed Hisa-sensei today after... *checks calendar* almost 10 years since the end of the anime (not quite the manga). Long story short, this year is Hisa Masato's 20th anniversary since his professional debut as a manga artist and to commemorate it, he's opened up a Marshmallow Q&A account (you may ask if you are so inclined; questions are accepted until June 26 and note you need to register an account and it's in Japanese but a translator should do the trick)

Naturally, someone (not me surprise but I can probably guess who the asker was) asked about Nobunagun - more specifically, some more backstory about Adam. The question is as follows:

(translated with deepL) My favorite character in your works is Adam of Nobunagun, and I would be very interested to know what his occupation was before he joined DOGOO, or if you have any other information about his past settings. I would appreciate it if you could tell me what kind of occupation he had before he joined DOGOO.

Sensei, well, went out of his way to answer for more than just Adam:

(translated with deepL)

I have vaguely thought about the setting for Nobunagan, as I have thought about publishing a character book doujinshi in the past. The setting is that Adam's father is the president of a large British company (with knighthood). When he finds out that his son is an e-gene holder, he takes his company on a noblesse oblige and cooperates with DOGOO. I think Adam himself worked for the company for a while. Gandhi was a terrible delinquent, living a rough life with constant fights and brawls in the alleys of India, and the two (Adam and Mahesh) were assigned to the same platoon, but their opposite circumstances must have made them irreconcilable at first. They must have been going through a lot. Cyx is a highway patrol rider. She was one of the police officers seconded by the Mongolian government when they participated in DOGOO. Geronimo is a waitress at a diner, but she is a fighter. One day she was in jail for beating up a customer who insulted her colleague, when Vidocq, who had guessed that an e-gene holder was around here, found her. Vidocq's guard at the time was Cyx, who was also awakened to the e-gene when she met Geronimo.

Ramblings under the cut

Ok so first off holy shit has my entire headcanon, backstory for Adam has been completely thrown out the window 😭😭 lmaoo but to be fair, I always knew this would likely happen. Let's be real, we learn almost nothing about the holder's past lives before DOGOO except Sio and the Commander, so everything is/was based off pure speculation. For the record, I had imagined (perhaps somewhat stereotypically) that Adam came from a rougher background, raised by a single mom and never knew his dad; while not outright poor, I had always imagined that his childhood had been difficult and rather lonely, and he grew up quick and learned to fend for himself out of necessity. Needless to say the fact that it seems to be implied now that he's not only got both parents (?) but if his father is the head of a knighted company then he's very likely pretty well-off, if not outright wealthy.

Which is, uh, quite a 180 from the 'single parent fend for yourself' background I have been writing about in my fics 😅 I think I took this route b/c of his connection to Jack the Ripper (East End was kinda poor) and his rough, abrasive attitude. Which is not what I would have expected if he'd had a rather refined upbringing. But then again, I think it's implied (and I do write this in my fics) that his attitude as "Jack" is kind of a facade, and Adam is actually more laid-back. (But probably not all of it)

This does raise some...interesting, contradictions, shall we say? Or rather, it does render a lot of my fics where I try to expand on Adam's backstory rather...invalid. First off, he's a rich kid. Second, sensei says that he worked for a while at the family company...while again, we have no real data like ages, this does imply that Adam is a couple years older than Sio. Which I have always imagined myself, but it seems likely that the gap is probably larger than I had imagined. In my stories, I always pin them around 2-3 years apart (except for AUs), but given logic and this new information, it would probably be more realistic to say 3-5 (or possibly more; we don't know when he started working or for how long, could be anywhere from a few months to a few years). I'm not gonna harp on age-gap or whatever, even though Sio's a high schooler and Adam is very well already an adult when they meet, hey at least she's a senior so it's very possible she's already 18 by the time they actually get together. However, there goes my 'Adam as a university student' theory...

(Tbh I am not sure how to feel if say, Sio was 17-18 and Adam was like 24-25 when they meet; look I am no prude and I don't give a shit but it is still something to really ruminate on...on the other hand, Japanese fans love the trope of older boyfriend/younger girlfriend and maybe it'll make for some interesting fic material later)

ANYWAY. Also I wonder if Adam ever resented his father for the noblesse oblige. Did he chafe at his rich childhood? Take it all in stride and is actually secretly really upper class? Get into trouble as a way of rebelling and only reluctantly worked for his father/joined DOGOO b/c deep down he felt he had to? (scribbles fic ideas)

I do like how sensei said that Adam and Mahesh didn't get along at first lol. That I could definitely imagine, but it's ironic b/c in my fics my background for Adam/Mahesh are totally switched; I imagined (well okay my mutual did) that Mahesh was from a rich family who pressured him into joining DOGOO, while Adam had street smarts from fending for himself. Apparently it's the other way around - Adam from the rich family that joined DOGOO out of duty while Mahesh was a street kid from the slums. But they do hint that Mahesh used to be quite different before he joined DOGOO and that he's not all he seems, so it does fit.

But it's funny to imagine Gandhi being a total delinquent and Jack the Ripper being all 'by the book' lol.

Cyx/Vidocq/Geronimo's pasts are the most fun. Cyx being a highway patrol explains a lot of her motorcycle skills, and Geronimo being a waitress (let's be real, native people are totally oppressed and good job opportunities are hard to come by for them) who sticks up for her coworkers with physical altercations are totally in character. What's really interesting is how Cyx/Vidocq were already acquainted, and that Vidocq seems to be one of the first/core DOGOO e-gene holders; after all, he goes to investigate the rumors of Geronimo's e-gene ability. It's almost like he's Dr. Xavier from X-Men, looking for his fellow holders.

And Cyx being assigned to escort Vidocq as he looks for holders, and when she and Geronimo meet, they trigger each others' 'awakening'...which I interpret that e-genes can and do sense/resonate when in the vicinity of another. This probably also explains why Cyx and Geronimo are so close. Maybe Cyx credits Geronimo for her awakening. The Princess nickname probably came from this meeting as well.

Whew. That was quite an info dump, and from just one question. If and when more Nobunagun-related questions are answered, I'll be sure to post them here!

(I have half a mind to re-write all the fics where I talk about Adam's backstory just to retcon them but that's too complicated and too much work. Also those stories kinda need my headcanon to work)
