#for anyone interested in playing it on dolphin

[alpiku]

Unfortunately I gave into my midnight impulses and have committed to playing endless ocean on my pc, so I bought a wii control yesterday and today ordered a sensor bar.

I will pet the fishies, whatever it takes!

#omg am i the next hoenn pokemon profesor?? lmao #for anyone interested in playing it on dolphin #you need both #the game requires a shake sensor and a stable pointer #i played a bit on wiiremote with no sensor bar and it’s exhausting to control with no aim #ps controller works but no shake dynamics #it’s easier to navigate buuuut still tough #i was about to drop it but played a good chunk yersterday #and looked at the catalogue #i need to find and pet the deep sea creatures!! #i would LOVE a switch port because imagine the game with improved graphics <333 #unfortunately there aren’t any other games like it #there’s other ocean games but the goal isn’t precisely research and exploration #endless ocean

You 🤝 Me

Agreeing that Globs of Doom is an S-Tier show

To be fair though, I think you were also right about nostalgia (what game did they play as a kid) being a factor, because that was the only one we owned.

Also that was some very fascinating commentary on boxes, especially that spooky one with the bear and the scary words that the developers probably didn't intend for anyone to read with the dolphin emulator and everything.

Also, I didn't know that Steve sang the theme song for Young Sheldon! My sister likes that comedy. I think that's one of the best things about your videos: there always ends up being some fun trivia in there that I can then mention later to family or friends to start an interesting conversation.

I'm glad you liked the video! Feedback like this really gets me going.

This Kmart is huge btw.

5 Things I 🧡 About Leviathan

1. I love how expressive he is! He's a sensitive guy who feels his emotions deeply. He cries tears of joy because he can watch anime air live; yells excitedly about winning a game; stutters and hides his blushy face when you compliment him. Through text, he uses all caps and "!?" more than anyone else. He's an adorable crybaby. It's especially endearing when he has a sudden strong emotion and can't help but transform.

2. I love his creativity and artistic skill: drawing, sewing, cosplaying, singing and dancing, and writing fanfiction are all ways he expresses his love for his faves. His heart has so much love to give 💞

3. I love that he blushes when he's excited, flustered, embarrassed, angry, you name it...He's a blushy boy and it's so damn cute! 😚 Just look at that dazzling smile!

4. I love how he melts into a puddle at the smallest gestures of affection, like holding his hand or a sweet compliment. I think he's a romantic at heart even if he'd never admit it! He craves the sweet and innocent first love tropes from his animes.

5. I love how easily he bonds with animals, such as Henry 1.0, 2.0, Lotan, and even talking to a dolphin in one sea event. I find it interesting that he saved both Henrys; he found the snake while they were both hiding from Satan, where Levi pledged to protect him. Then he found the goldfish in the trash while searching for Henry 1.0 (😢) and rescued him. Of course we can't forget the Devilgram where he plays fetch with Lotan 🥺 He cares about them so much and it's perfect

Okay I know it's been discussed but like. I do love me some role reversal. Just, season 1 Steve Harrington moving to California and stealing King Billy's crown without even trying.

- Steve's dad transfers to California at the behest of Mrs. Harrington. Affair after affair has left her Hawkins reputation in tatters. Nothing but pittying stares and snide comments from the locals everywhere she went. So she demands Steve's father move them out to San Diego. A fresh start, a beautiful city. Steve is devastated.

- They purchase a beach house. It's massive and bright with their very own section of the ocean all to themselves. It's beautiful and so very very empty. Because now Steve really does have no one. No friends, no hangers on. Nothing familiar or comforting. The only constant is his parents. They never stayed for more than a week at a time in Hawkins. California is no different. They leave after only five days.

- Steve ends up going to Billy's school by accident actually. His dad has never been very interested in his sons life, always brushed off with a wave or a crisp $100 to go entertain himself because I'm working Steven. So when the subject of school comes up Mr. Harrington picks at random. Just a quick signature and it's done. Unbeknownst to him this is the best thing he has ever done for Steve.

- Because here's the thing. The girls of San Diego do love Billy. But Billy grew up here. You can only fake it till you make it for so long and there has been many an instance where it was obvious Billy just could not give a shit about getting his dick wet with his date. People talk. And sure, anyone says something to Billy he'll rearrange their face. But highschool gossip is savage. California is very much more liberal than Hawkins Indiana but it's still the 80's. Billy still hides. And while he's 100% the golden skin Greek god we see in season 2, he's also less angry. Softer. Hasn't been uprooted to move cross country to bum fuck nowhere where he was something new. Something exotic. Cue Steve Harrington.

- Steve is wholesome country boy charm with a pretty face and a fat wallet. He's big warm brown doe eyes and "I'll have her home by 9 sir". Drives a swanky ass car and has a big empty beach house to throw parties in. Combine all that with a huge dick and the experience of a teen who grew up in a town where there was nothing to do other than party and fuck around? Yeah, the girls at Billy's school are not ready. And neither is Billy.

- Steve Harrington walks through the doors of Billy's highschool Monday morning wearing a crop top and dolphin shorts because he's an Indiana boy born and bred so his body is conditioned to the cold crisp fall days of September in Hawkins, not this sweltering HELL. He has NOT acclimated to the heat of Cali so my boy wears very little clothing whenever he can get away with it. Plays skins in basketball practice, takes his shirt off outside. And he's got SO MANY MORE FRECKLES. The California sunshine is doing him right and Billy Hargrove is NOT OKAY™

- The girls LOVE Steve. Something about the "aw shucks" Midwest charm he brings combined with how genuinely sweet he is. Because Tommy H. and Carol Perkins are thousands of miles away. Steve is given the chance to relax and be more comfortable in his own skin in a place like San Diego. There's no small town gossip chain here. Just the anonymity of a big city. Which also means Steve is given free rein to flirt with all the cute suffer boys at the beach. Let's his gaze linger on toned abs and chiseled jaws when he walks down the boardwalk. Winks when they linger right back.

"There are many perks to marine biology"

I really enjoy your headcanons of specific sea creatures as merpeople! The little details and facts just make them so much more interesting! My current favorite is the vampire squid!

If your time is free and you are willing, would you mind perhaps Octavinelle with a box jelly fish or orca? Obviously it's your choice, but these specific two are just very interesting to me.

Since I had a few other jelly asks, ima go for the orca. also kinda struggled to make these very long due to the Orca mer being a bit more on the mean side.

a bit mean but incredibly smart. The wolves of the sea in how they work best in packs.

Description

you were a large mer, with black skin and white patches along your large strong body. your large body and pack working to hunt down larger prey, from seals to even some fishing boats. You loved being with your pack and whenever you were with them you loved to play with the smaller creatures around you. From messing with other dolphin mers to taunting smaller prey mers and watching them hide away.

When you got your legs you were still incredibly strong and liked to push others around. You were a staggering 7 feet tall and had Vitiligo patches that resembled your black and white skin from your merform. If anyone tried to make fun of you for your spots though they would be beaten senseless. You made quite the reputation for yourself in savanaclaw and with others. You were incredibly strong and smart, very few stood up against you.

Octavinelle

Azul: He HATED you, you reminded him of other mers that picked on him growing up. It didn't help that when he did try to con hire you, you started to tease and mock him. So with the near bullying, he set out a way to get some blackmail on you and get you to work for him otherwise risk expulsion. You both had quite the rivalry. When he overblotted you were somewhat taught the error of your own ways too, just seeing how your action affected others kinda was like a slap to the face, you didn't change much but you did ease up on the bullying. You two were very awkward around each other but eventually became good acquaintances.

Jade: Thought you were fairly easy prey to get into the lounge as a stronger worker. A bit miffed at how angry and physically violent you became. Enjoyed finding blackmail on you for Azul and liked watching you squirm as you were cornered into working for the lounge. Found even greater joy in seeing you struggle under the work he put you through. Even snuck in some experimental mushroom dishes for you to try, you'll probably be fine~ Liked to watch what made you tick and laughed with Floyd at how you and azul struggled to get along after the overblot incident. Kept you at an arm's length and as a work acquaintance, wich was more than fine by you.

Floyd: Called you Orca. Teased and poked at your unique spots. he got a good slap to the face and laughed at you and that made you angrier. He liked poking fun at you since you would get so angry with him. You were very fun to play with and you didn't go easy on him so he wasn't easy on you either. Crazy enough you both started to have fun during these games and started messing with others too, it was like you were back with one of your pack buddies! You both were now the scariest people in the school so congrats I guess? messed with you when you were both working and laughed at you and Azul's rivalry turned awkward friendship. Still likes to drag you around to play with him and mess with some rude fishies.

Realized I forgot about merform stuff, they are all fairly impressed with your size and strength. jade liked to poke and prod at you. Floyd liked when you launched him or played just as violently with him, obviously you would both stop if there was any blood though. Azul stayed away from you as you teased him with the tweels about how you enjoyed octopus.

#octavinelle #azul x reader #azul ashengrotto #my stuff #my writing #jade leech #Floyd leech #tweels #octatrio #twst x reader #Floyd x reader #jade x reader #struggled a bit with this one #hope you like it! #made the mc in this one rather mean #but it was a different way of writing someone for me #it was good practice #hope this is ok with you

Findjackwalten 07/16/23 Update Walkthrough

Findjackwalten updated AGAIN last night! It's a relatively small update, and it looks like it's going to be the last of these rapid-fire updates we've been getting, so let's get into it!

Findjackwalten.com

Our main page has updated to look... almost unsettlingly normal? Everything is about where it should be, all of the links work, and any obvious scary text is gone. There's a new image here: this "THE FUTURE STARTS NOW" advertisement, and there's a new video player box which is just an embed of the Bon's Burgers Commercial.

The audio player is still there. It plays a new song, one that I don't recognize and haven't been able to identify

I've seen someone say it sounds like a piano rendition of On Green Dolphin Street but that really doesn't sound right to me? If anyone else thinks they know what song this is please say something. An important thing with this audio is that there seems to be a weird 'tapping' in the back of it. It doesn't really go along rhythmically with the music but it sounds a bit like shoes-on-floor and it echoes like an empty room.

There is at least one other weird thing about this page. If you zoom out real far and look at about this section:

Then there is text you can highlight.

Findjackwalten.com/mynameis-bon

Bon is back! And wayy closer. An interesting peculiarity with him here is that his head and his body are two separate images. Weird.

Findjackwalten.com/poker

The image on this page is the same as it was last time, but the "oops!" text is now gone.

Findjackwalten.com/btscene

This page has updated with some new images! Most of these are screenshots of what seem to be cut content from BunnyFarm, but there's also a couple new drawings of Sophie.

Also this dog:

[fyreiswriting]

someone in a Coral Island discord i'm a part of put forth the idea that Alice, Noah, Millie, and Zarah should have their own YouTube channel, and then I said it should be in the style of Buzzfeed Unsolved, and then I started writing it. unfortunately something wasn't clicking -- it was ok, sure, lots of interesting worldbuilding and headcanons, but it just didn't feel like it was working.

and then it hit me: it's because both Noah and Alice believe in the supernatural. there wasn't anyone to play devil's advocate to their theories.

anyways, that spawned this little snippet:

“Ok, so now for the fun part,” Noah said as they sat back down behind the desk. He pulled out a second file and placed it on top of the first. “Recent evidence.” “Oh boy,” Imogene said with an eye-roll. “Could we make this a drinking game? Take a shot every time it’s very obviously a dolphin or something?” “Imogene!” Alice squawked, laughing bright and loud. Noah grinned, shaking his head.

“What?! I’m just saying! Half the time you see images of ‘Merfolk’ and it’s either shot with a thirty-year-old Nokia while being flung like a football or it’s literally just a dolphin or an orca or something leaping out of the water!” “You’re really gonna love some of these, then,” Noah told her, glancing over his shoulder. She slumped back in her chair with an over-the-top groan, which set Alice off laughing again. “First up – we have a video shot five years ago, off the coast of Peru. Let’s take a look.” The video ran, clearly shot by an old cell phone on a small fishing vessel. Two voices chattered quickly behind the camera as they pointed the lens off the side of the boat. The boat rocked, moving the camera with it.  Then – perhaps a hundred meters off the side of the boat – something very briefly flashed in the water. A tail flicked above the surface, sending a splash of water high overhead. One of the men shouted excitedly, pointing.  Noah paused the video there. “Tuna,” Imogene said without missing a beat.

feat. my much-beloved farmer, stirring up shit with Alice and Noah. (she will absolutely tell Semeru, her boyfriend, about this later and laugh so hard she pulls something in her side. I love her very much.

Ways to play as an autistic regressor ! 

There is no “right” or “wrong” way to play or to regress. But as an autistic person myself I understand how difficult It can be to entertain yourself when playing pretend doesnt always work out!  Sensory play! - Sensory play is great for stimming and helping process information! Some things include (but not limited to),,, - Finger painting  - DIY Slime or Playdough  - “Muddy Kitchen” (making fake treats and baked things out of mud in a garden)  - DIY Music (rice in bottles, spoons and buckets as drums, squeaky chairs)  - Painting with food (a plate, chocolate sauce, syrup, fruits, apple sauce, yogurt, cream cheese, oats, sugar, cinnamon, sprinkles)  - “Stuck” toys (freezing or baking toys into cakes or jello)  Other games or things you can do are...  - Find & Seek bottles (a bottle full of rice and small toys, bells, beads, letters, blocks, and other small things)  - Eye Spy books ! (similar to Find & Seek bottles)  - Keeping a little journal! Write and draw in it. Talk about your special interests, yourself, your stuffies, your friends a caregiver, anything! - Learning sign language (research signs to practice while small. Words like your name, mom/dad/parent, cat, dog, a favorite animal, favorite food... and other words that could help you when you’re regressed !  * learning a new language is also super helpful when regressing. We don't baby talk because of our autism. It doesnt make us feel right? But when we try to speak french we’re just learning! And we talk like a baby would saying only small things like “hungry” or “want” ! When it comes to toys I look mostly for building or sorting things. Dolls or to many parts that force you into a story can stress a little who doesnt know how to play pretend! You could also set up scenes without playing a game! Tea parties, setting up doll houses, brushing and dressing stuffles or dolls.  Toys I enjoy as a autistic regressor!  Multi pack - hammer bench, ring stacker, sensory cube Sorting vegetables Wooden cutting vegetables Wooden blocks Spin aquarium Activity cube Hexagon puzzle Stacking cups Stacking rocks Egg shapes Flower house lego Lego minecraft fox Dolphin turtle lego   Lego Airplane Lego create a monster Calico critters -  bunnies cats dogs  bathroom set House set      As said on my previous posts! My dms are always open to those with questions or anyone who needs help!

[pasta-in-the-pudding]

Hey I really like your creepypasta stuff and I was wondering about general headcannons for Jane and clockwork ? Thank you!

I haven't gotten any clockwork requests yet! And i get very few Jane requests! Super excited for this one...

Thank you so much for requesting!!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Jane

Very much into trad goth and romantic goth subcultures

Lesbian, she/her, 24 years old

5'8"

Her favorite band is She Wants Revenge

She lives in the manor, but she and jeff are kept far away from each other due to constant fights breaking out between the two

For a while, liu tried to help them work out their differences as a mediator, but that obviously didnt work

Jane, however, is actually good friends with Liu

She has a huge crush on nurse ann

I mean, who doesn't

Shes a very quiet person, generally

Very logical, ordered, scheduled

She is one of Sally's primary caretakers, along with Liu and EJ

Her ultimate fantasy is to have a date with her soulmate in a graveyard

Shes very interested in fashion, even designing some of her own fashion lines, but they are nothing more than sketches as she hasn't taken the time to learn how to sew yet

She's one of the very few creeps that keeps her distance from everyone else

She has a few close friends, namely, Ej and Liu, but other than that she doesn't really talk to anyone

She is polite and civil, but she doesn't go out of her way to be overly friendly

She is African American

Her proxy tattoo is on her thigh

I like to imagine her voice sounds like a deeper version of Amy Lee's

She likes having her nails done, and especially likes having acrylics with charms on them

Her favorite set (and the one she gets done over and over again) are black nails with silver crosses, pearls and chains

I feel like she has very intense PTSD from everything with Jeff, and refuses to be anywhere near fire, or men that she doesn't know for too long

And sure, it makes her work harder, but she's slaying so its not all that bad

As far as her work goes, she is normally used for spying and recon missions, as she is very stealthy, and even if she does get caught she can be very persuasive and manipulative

I feel like she would be the type of person to have very few tattoos and piercings

The tattoos she does have, they have meaning

For example, she has a rose on her left arm, and a daisy on her right arm, as these were her parents favorite flowers

I feel like she would use very high quality perfumes, like gucci and dior stuff

The best way to explain her signature scent is "expensive"

She is absolutely a boss bitch <333

Clockwork

Lesbian, she/her, 23 years old

5'6"

She's very butch <333

The best way i can explain her personality is Applejack from mlp

She's very extroverted and enjoys hanging out with people around the mansion

She wears so many flannels

Seriously. Someone needs to stop her from buying them

Flannels and blue jeans are her jam

I imagine that she smells like old spice, because she thinks all "female" deoderants smell too weak

Also, old spice fits her aesthetic better

Shes so gay for Jane

I feel like Jane would know at least a little about Nat's feelings

She wholeheartedly denies having said feelings though

She loves physical sport, and can often be found wrestling or sparring with another creep

As a result, she is tanned and buff

She has a septum ring, an eyebrow ring and has contemplated getting small gauges

Her proxy tattoo is on her shoulder

Other than that, i don't think she would have many other tattoos

I can see her having something like a star on her shoulderblade, or maybe a dolphin on her ankle, but thats about it

I would think that she's really close with Toby, Jane and maaaaybe Liu

Her proxy work normally consists of fast paced missions

If you need someone beat up quick, shes your girl

I feel like she would try really hard to be a plant person, but she just can't figure it out

She can also play the acoustic guitar

She only really plays it when Sally asks her too, though

When Sally first got in the mansion, Nat would help lull Sally to sleep by playing a song and singing softly by her bed

It really helped Sally warm up to the manor, and get comfortable living there

Ever since then, Sally and Nat have gotten really close, making Nat one of the first people she asks to play dolls with, asks to watch tv with, asks to dance with, etc

I feel like she would smoke every now and then, but its only to help calm her anxiety and she only does it when she knows there aren't any small children that could potentially be watching her

I feel like she would have BPD and maybe some OCD

DND Campaign: L.A. Numinous

The Pantheons of the World are not as fantastical or mythical as you might think. They are around us, always hiding in plain sight. They hide from the Mortal Realm, having forgone most of their earthly attachments after the Great War, the World War, the Last War that they would put themselves through.

They hid their World, their mythologies, their fantasies from the Mortal Realm, between the cracks of what can and can't be seen. There in the unperceived, the lives of fantastical creatures, of ogres and fairies, of kitsune and deities, they continue to survive.

It's 2028, just 6 months before the Summer Olympic Games starts anew in the City of Angels, Los Angeles. You scroll through your X feed, look at the current trending topics: Articles about Whales and Dolphins taking over the sea; The Olympic Flame being ignited in Greece; And the death of an Instagram Model with no leads. It's almost banal and boring as you flick through tweets.

Perhaps, just at the corner of your eye, you see a little miracle, a trick of the light or a creep of a shadow. But something/someone tumbles over you, a friend, a loved one, a mentor you've known for some months, weeks, or maybe only a few days. They're blood soaked and their eyes are pleading, worrying, and saddened, as they look at you, clutching at wounds that only look seconds old.

"Aphrodite is dead. This was not how I meant for this to happen but I'm sorry but I must pass my Eidolon to you before it's too late."

Light flashes before you could even ask. You find yourself engulfed with it, bathed in it and then... nothing.

Now there's a dead body in your hands and an ominous feeling in your chest. Your phone beeps and rings to life with a spoken message. You're pretty sure it didn't have that feature before.

"[Player Name] , you are summoned before the Divine Council to be condemned for the Assassination of a Deity and Usurping their Status. Cooperation would be most advised."

ART CREDIT: Tony Sart, Javier Charro

Hi, hello, Name's Kiri or Hex or Vai! I hardly ever post on Tumblr anymore or advertise any campaign ideas here due to school but this one has been nagging me just a little bit more after listening to Stray Gods, watching American Gods, and rewatching the Percy Jackson films, so I needed to just write down the blurb and the pitch in case anyone is wanting to play some DND in a Divine Urban Fantasy kind of setting.

INFO

The game is set in contemporary Los Angeles, a few years into the future, a few months before the Summer Olympic Games. You have been accused for the assassination of a Deity and usurping their power and status, their Eidolon. Through the Eidolon, you gain power and are now able to perceive Los Angeles in its truest form, a City of Mythical Creatures living in secrecy.

During Character Creation, you will choose a Deity from any Pantheon (Japanese, Chinese, Greek, Egyptian, Norse etc) whose Eidolon has been passed down to you.

This is going to be a Human-centric campaign so, despite the advertisement of other races in the game world, physically your character will be Human. Through the power of the Eidolon, they can be reskinned with the capabilities of other DND races.

Gameplay will be roleplay heavy, debating on either PBP semi-live text or just Discord VC with a separate channel for Texting RP. But there will also be combat involved of course.

The DM, me, hi, has a flexible schedule but I am in PST so applicants who are close to that would be preferred.

Current Allowed Resources are PHB, Xanathar's, Tasha's, and Mythic Theros

Depending on interest, around 4-8 rotating players can be taken.

If interested, DM me or like this post for more details so I can get back to you.

#dnd #dungeons and dragons #d&d #lfg #looking for players #looking for group #dnd lfg #dnd lfp #why am i doing this to myself again #well at least its out there now and I can finally focus on other things hopefully #lgbtq #lgbtq+

9 Fandom Peeps to Get to Know Better:

Tagged by @theworldisabrokenbonebutitishome and @forerussake - thanks guys!

3 Ships You Like: my brain could go in 10 different directions here in addition to the most obvious course, but most recently, hmmm - Ye Liuxi/Chang Dong (West out of Yumen) they were awfully cute together. I'd rewatch if the Youtube version wasn't such a mess. And still somehow surprisingly to me, pingxie- every time a post pops up it reminds me that oh yeah I do really feel them. And recently, fanghua (really!) after reading a fic that tossed me unceremoniously over the line. I'm not done making noise about that either.

First Ship Ever: I guess the first one I was really conscious of (and read fic for) was Mulder/Scully. damn that feels like an aeon ago, another life

Last Song You Heard: Kendall Tavern/Dancing in Allihies by Jenna Moynihan (it's a tune technically but I think that counts). as someone who plays a lot of music (instruments) I tend to listen to things I play or want to play, which means I'm usually listening to some odd shit.

Favourite Childhood Book: it's difficult to remember I blew through so many, although a lot were my mother's books and not necessarily for kids ..maybe Island of the Blue Dolphins? I cannot remember whether it was assigned to us in school or if I read it on my own, or both. Probably both!

Currently Reading: rereading クスノキの番人 by Higashino Keigo, so I can absorb more vocabulary than I did the first time around. Last time I was in Japan I didn't have a list of books to find and was aimlessly looking around- this one was on display and just sounded interesting so I grabbed one. It was cute, just slightly supernatural and sentimental - wouldn't be surprised if it gets animated or made into a short tv series. That and at the same time also 二百二十日 by Natsume Soseki because I love being at least mildly confused and challenged at all times.

Currently watching: Rewatching MLC just for the feels and also trying to figure out how to watch Ying Yang Master without having to give Netflix my cc number. Also would like to know where people are accessing the unofficial copies of Spirealm since the recent barrage of gifsets of a frighteningly young-looking Huang Junjie suggests it's around somewhere - anyone know?

Currently consuming: blueberries and just a little cabot plain greek yogurt - expensive but so good. I figure if food is gonna cost over $10 every time then I'd might as well eat something healthy that i'll want every day.

Currently craving: at the moment I'd love these clouds to clear up. It's Saturday in late February and the sun would be nice on my day off. Would love to go on a hike to look for oyster mushrooms though I never have good luck finding those. Update: went for a short jog and it felt like I woke up with someone else's legs today, in a bad way. I want the energy I had on Monday. Probably the fault of the junk I ate yesterday - trying broccoli and brown rice tonight, will try again tomorrow and see if it helps (usually does).

Tagging: As usual I think my mutuals are in on this already - anyone interested in a new set of questions? Maybe I could come up with something

#personal #sort of

[tyranitarkisser]

Detective Finnegan “Windward” Dauphin… a seasoned and perhaps a bit overconfident private investigator from out of town, Detective Windward has only recently been separated from his long-time partner (personal differences, long story!) and is struggling on his own more than he would like to admit. He has a razor sharp wit and is quick to make judgements, though his intuition isn’t always correct, and in situations where he isn’t, he’s very skilled at saving face and playing his aloof persona. He talks like an old-timey 1950s radio show host.

Mara Eleana Fusilli is a humble clairvoyant who has worked most of her life in a tent by the undersea wharf. Equipped with her unique psychic powers, her sonar abilities are leagues above other dolphins. Where many others would abuse this power for personal gain, Mara doesn’t quite know what to make of it and tries not to let it affect her personal life, preferring to help others with it instead. Because of this, she is a bit lonely and fast to cling to people that show her positive attention. She is prone to acting on impulse and getting into trouble as a result.

Trick Turntable is one half of the ocean’s first train conductor duo. She carries herself with a kind and motherly persona, ready to hear out anyone who may need assistance or god forbid, is lost. She’s very protective of her adoptive brother, Track, and the two are rarely seen apart from one another. The two of them are very interested in locomotives and it was Trick’s idea to begin the ocean’s first public transit system to ensure all whales get to their destinations safely. She is known to be a little playful and curious, too!

Track Turntable is the other half to the iconic narwhal/beluga train conductor duo. Having lost his way from the rest of his birth family as a young calf navigating northern waters during the summer time, he was subsequently found and taken in by Trick’s pod and treated like one of their own. Today he is just as helpful as his sister, though he can be a bit slow on the uptake and forgetful. (Don’t surprise him from behind or you might just get a wack in the face from his tusk!) He is the more technical-minded of the two and a skilled repairman. Growing up in Trick’s family, he picked up their light southern American accents into adulthood.

Stevie Bermuda is a slimy con man with an annoying Trans-Atlantic accent with a grandiose sense of self that has traveled much of the world’s oceans to find new dolphins to assimilate into his fraudulent causes. Everything from pyramid schemes, impersonation, fake business scams, and even cults, it doesn’t seem like anything he tries brings him any sense of personal fulfillment. He doesn’t care for love or friendship, just shallow gratification. He also seems to have an irrational fear of children and teenagers… They might just be his downfall someday! 

Kanpacho is a guitar playing cool guy that has found his home by the wharf where he met Mara. He makes most of his money by playing nice songs for visiting dolphins and cargo workers alike. He’s well liked by everyone and has a Brazilian accent.

Ben Sleepy is a dolphin that seems to get a kick out of sleeping in the most inconvenient of places. When he’s not sleep-swimming or finding an (un)comfortable spot to snuggle up in, he can be found at buffets completely decimating the shrimp bar.

Casper Cantor is a businessman by day and prankster by night. He is the CEO of the business that runs the undersea wharf, dealing with most of the transport and cargo shipments going in and out of the town. He is an avid fanatic of clowns and in his free time will don his jester persona and entertain others with his magic tricks. The only person that knows his secret is his daughter, Melody, of whom he is very supportive of her creative endeavors. Maybe he’s where she gets her imagination from?

Melody Cantor is a young hypochondriac dolphin and elementary school student with an irrational fear of getting wet. She can easily be identified in a crowd with her umbrella she takes with her everywhere and her yellow raincoat. She is a talented artist and poet.

Cat is a zoologist with a sprawling collection of specimens from all seven seas. She is eager to educate all who are willing to listen to her ramble about all the different species of sea slugs.

Skip is a studious young foreign exchange student. Both of his parents are busy back home being surgeons and expect great things from him, which can sometimes be stressful on an impressionable little sea lion. This doesn’t dampen his spirit though, and his best friend Melody does a great job of bringing out his creative side. He is sometimes teased by his classmates for being different, and whenever he feels homesick Trick and Track will act as his parents away from home.

Henry XVIII is the 18th in a long line of Turntable family pets and mascot for Trick and Track’s Arctic Express. He's a great listener, even if he is quite old for a nautilus. 

James Circuits is the local record shop owner, right next door to Mara’s fortune telling tent! He can be a little spacey and hangs around questionable folks but he means well... His music knowledge is all encompassing, but his favorite is classic R&B.

Pollux Cantor, like his brother Casper, is a businessman, albeit a much less successful one that can’t ever catch a break. He’s bent on moving up in Stevie’s company and doesn’t seem to realize he is being taken advantage of. He's hopelessly addicted to caffeine and remoras frequently attach themselves to him and feed on the excess.

Madame Roachè is a prideful socialite on the cutting edge of all fashion trends that hit the Arctic landscape.

So I hyperfixated on the Octonauts a few days ago, leading to me coming up with a bunch of theories/headcanons. These have only persisted and my obsession with Octonauts has stayed strong so allow me to give y'all some Kwazii headcanons/theories along with my Kwazii designs(theres two versions).

If you don't like it, too bad. This is MY BLOG and I will post WHAT I WANT./lh/j

Ok so Kwazii headcanons/theories! Note that these take into account stuff that happened in Ring of Fire, and that I haven't watched every single episode of both series(the original Octonauts and Octonauts: Above and Beyond) because my stupid siblings were bullying me for watching it >:( Anywho heres the headcanons/theories

Kwazii is trans because fuq you also like probably canon according to everything I see

Kwazii has some of Calico Jacks, his grandfather, features that no one else in his family really has. Those features are the eyes, nose marking, and left leg marking(this is based on the design above). The colors vary but everyone compares him to his granddad.

Kwazii has ADHD no I don't take criticism I have ADHD therefore he does as well.

Kwazii has abandonment issues and can be rather clingy when he isn't putting on a brave face

Besides Captain Barnacles, Tweak was the first member of the Octonauts that Kwazii befriended. They play video games every night and his gold tooth is a cap that Tweak made him. His fang is chipped underneath it

Speaking of which, Kwazii is a night owl. He's always up til like two in the morning, probably getting zoomies

I think Kwazii spent most of his childhood alone. The only family he ever mentions is his grandfather, and his grandfather left when he was a little kitten(as said in the Amazon Adventure episode)

Pan boy poly boy hes dating Shellington and Peso screw y'all

He loves to cook and bake, and he can be seen helping the Vegimals in the kitchen

No one knows why he's so good with kids, considering that as far as anyone knows he's an only child and didn't have other kids in his family(or at least, if he did he never mentioned them) but most children naturally flock to him and he gets real freaking attached to kids when he interacts with them(examples being the baby dolphin episode, Peso's little brother, the baby crocodile, theres probably more but these are the ones off the top of my head)

He looks up to Captain Barnacles alot and often can be seen mimicking his mannerisms

He loves the sea monster stories because they brought him alot of comfort as a child, and made him feel closer to his grandfather. He doesn't always believe them but he wishes they were true

Kwazii has very little concern for his own safety. He would gladly put his life on the line for, anyone really, and is shown to overcome his arachnophobia just so he could help a beetle that was actively being...hostile ig? just a few minutes prior. He doesn't care what happens to him, he only really worries about others

Hes lost some feeling in his tail and his tail healed with a bend in it

Kwazii has had many scars over the years but the one on his ear is interesting because he won't tell anyone how he got it, when he usually tells big extravagant stories for how he got his scars

He makes a habit of remembering everything thats said to him, making sure he can use it in the future(example being when Shellington talked about symbiotic relationships between the crab and the urchin i think? Maybe it was a sea sponge but whatever, and Kwazii brought up that fact in Above and Beyond)

I think he dwells over his mistakes alot. I also think he has nightmares of past incidents, recently being the events of Ring of Fire, and is a fairly light sleeper, so he wakes up to most sudden noises.

I think Kwazii is actually afraid of stuff sometimes(not for his safety reasons but like what it could be) and he pretends to be fearless to be like Captain Barnacles, who seems fearless to everyone around him.

Dashi helped him write a book featuring all the tales of his grandfather

He was always searching for stuff about his grandfather to feel closer to the man he only faintly remembers

I think he joined the Octonauts a bit younger than the others

Most of his possessions he found after joining the Octonauts, and his eyepatch was one of his only possessions he had before joining. Calico Jack gave it to him before joining

Kwazii can't tie a tie

Kwazii developed his arachnophobia as a young kitten, but after Calico Jack left. Its one of the only things he actively shows fearing because hes just that spooked by them.

Kwazii still can't surf

While he will admit to not being good at stuff, he feels the need to be good at everything

Kwazii sings sea shantys to the Vegimals

He has some shark friends who he actively races and they just hang out, usually when he should be sleeping

I think he has a slight fear of fire from what happened in Ring of Fire. And hes way too overly attached to the Gup-B, probably because its gotten him out of alot of life threatening situations(that he wasn't even aware were life threatening because he didn't really care)

Ok thats all if I keep thinking this post will be so long it will count as a novel. Once I draw the others I'll do headcanons and theories for them too! If y'all have suggestions/requests for who I should do next I'll gladly take those too! Also which design do you like better? I like the first one alot but I feel the second looks closer to the source material lol, also should've added eye bags but oh well-

Hi hi Coffee! FFWF :D!

What was your process in writing/thinking up your Hamlet Bubble Loop concept? Were you inspired by anything in particular? Were there multiple drafts or thrown out ideas for it?

hullo hullo o/ thank you for the ask!

for anyone interested, i talk about my Hamlet Bubble Loop here:

honestly, yeah, this was a concept i loved from a few different games and franchises. the concept of a time loop or toying with time was always fascinating to me. and it was born out of the final cutscene in the game itself and my long-lasting fascination with the concept.

shameless plug, but i was exploring this concept of endless loop in my previous work, Reaching escape velocity. honestly, this is a concept i genuinely adore because it's fascinating to try and imagine how that would affect the characters and the world.

my first fav game with splitting time or affecting time (unlikely as it was) was Legacy of Kain series. they showed me how complex and grey a narrative can be, how you can write criss-crossing and double-crossing of characters who are both sympathetic and horrible in their own way.

then there was Ecco the Dolphin and Ecco the Dolphin: Tides of Time which i played vigorously on a simulator, and Ecco Defender of the future which i played on youtube. changing time, being cause of the past events because travelling back in time, stealing things from your past self for your future self to succeed while your past self suffers... honestly, this cutesy dolphin game is so messed up. just as much as its origin

and i guess Undertale added to that mix, and rps i played with it, exploring a day in hell you have to re-live again and again and again and again. oh, all the theories i crafted for that one...

considering thrown out ideas, when i still held DD2 in high regard, i had the idea of mentioning it and toying with it as one of the failed loops, but that idea got out of the window. oh well.

Cap-IM Bingo 2023 Round 1 Masterpost

Here’s a masterpost for all of my bingo fills for this round. I got a blackout (whoop whoop!), so here we go:

We Are Briefly Gorgeous Square: S1 - He Wants That Tony finds himself in a gay bar right after signing his divorce papers, drowning his sorrows. Turns out the handsome stranger that chats him up is just the distraction he needs.

Rapt Attention Square: S2 - Learn A New Skill Tony is a little baffled by Steve's sudden interest in his work. Apparently he wants to learn more about engineering, which is fine by Tony. He'd never keep anyone from following their passion. Little does he know that Steve is a lot more curious about the man behind the machines than the machines themselves.

Art: Stony intimacy Square: S3 - Art Format: Close-Up

Art: Angsty Wing AU Square: S4 - AU of Your Choice

Dolphins Do It Better Square: S5 - Questionable Decision-Making Process Tony keeps looking for a way to make Steve come hard enough to completely satisfy him. He thinks he's finally found the perfect solution.

When The Party's Over Square: T1 - Hospitals When Natasha calls him to ask for help after Siberia, Tony almost doesn't go. It's only because she's not with the rogues that he ends up coming in for an assist. Of course, when he does, everything goes to shit. And who is it that ends up saving him? Steve motherfucking Rogers. As if Tony doesn't have enough problems already.

Art: Steve and Tony flying Square: T2 - Hug-And-Fly

Art: Lazy Centaur Steve and Tony sketch Square: T3 - Horses

Art: Ninja concept art Square: T4 - Ninja

Art: Stony in a Storm Square: T5 - Lightning Strikes

My Jolly Sailor Bold Square: O1 - AU: Underwater Toni knows it's strange that she's never felt the urge to sing for any of the sailors passing through her reef. Her sisters seem to think that sharing pleasure with a human is one of the greatest joys in life, but Toni has never seen the appeal. Then a ship carries a beautiful woman into Toni's waters. And Toni finally understands what her sisters meant.

When Hell Freezes Over Square: O2 - Do You Feel What I Feel? Tony ingests a drug that amps his insecurities up to eleven. It seems like he's extremely susceptible to Steve's opinion specifically, now that he's like this. Steve has no idea what to make of it. He only knows that trying to take care of Tony without accidentally revealing his feelings for him is going to be virtually impossible. He does it anyway.

Never Worlds Apart Square: O3 - Free Space It's been six years since he's seen Tony when he walks into his favorite diner and sees him sitting in their old booth, as if nothing ever happened. Steve can't believe the nerve of Tony to just show up out of the blue after the way he ended things. Turns out Tony has a reason for wanting to make amends. And Steve doesn't appreciate only finding out about it after Tony has already almost died.

A Guiding Hand Square: O4 - Hidden Depths Tony is perpetually stressed. His job, his divorce and his insomnia are making his life a living hell. He just can't seem to catch a break. That is until his boss Steve inadvertently gives him exactly what Tony needs - a firm hand. Tony hasn't played with his submissive tendencies in years, but he knows an opportunity when he sees one. And as it turns out, Steve is more than happy to give him the guidance he craves.

Sparks Are Gonna Fly Square: O5 - Car Race Tony drives the 1-California in San Francisco. The highlight of his day, every day, is sharing a smile and a nod with the hot guy that drives the 8-Bayshore. Tony has never actually talked to the guy, but he's pretty sure that they have a connection. Then, one day, some guy picks a fight during Tony's shift and ends up cutting his bus in half. If you had asked Tony earlier, he would've said that there is no way anything positive can come from an experience like that. Except when it turns out to be his golden opportunity to actually meet the Bayshore-hottie.

The Devil's Staircase Square: N1 - Writing Format: Emulate Someone Else’s Style “Do you remember who I was inside?” Entire lives inside that dream. Hushed words and whispered promises. Tony remembered all too well. Inside, Steve had called him love. Outside, Steve called him traitor.

Turbulence Square: N2 - Weather Is Out Of Control Steve has a major headache, and the businessman douchebag yelling into his phone at the airport isn't helping. There's only so much Steve can stand before he gets up and puts the guy in his place. Finding out that they're actually seat neighbors is beyond awkward. Especially when Steve's anxiety kicks in as they fly right through a storm. But as it turns out, the guy isn't as much of a douchebag as Steve first thought.

The Art of Winning Square: N3 - Attainable Goals During an Avengers bootcamp, Steve gets the mission to make Tony say the words "You win" or "I give up" to Steve specifically. Which would be fine if Tony didn't seem completely incapable of admitting defeat. In the end, desperate times call for desperate measures. And it's not like it was Steve's idea to play gay chicken. He can hardly be held responsible for the consequences.

Art: Stony take on The Astronomer by Johannes Vermeer Square: N4 - Art Format: Parody of a Famous Painting

It Don't Get Hot Like This In Heaven Square: N5 - Alien Planet Tony gets thrown into a dimension where the dinosaurs survived and evolved as the dominant species on the planet. This universe's version of Steve Rogers has terrifyingly sharp teeth and an even tougher skin than usual, but other than that he's Captain America through and through. He's also incredibly attractive. And Tony has never been known for his impulse control.

Making Up The Reasons Square: Y1 - Writing Format: Character Study The Avengers all get reverted back to the age when they lost their virginity. It's funny until it isn't.

Those Who Mind Don’t Matter Square: Y2 - Left My Wallet In My Other Suit Tony is an omega and therefore coveted by most of the alpha population. However, to everyone's surprise and outrage, he gets together with Steve, a beta. Steve knows he shouldn't care what anyone else says, but you can only read so many headlines calling you unworthy and inadequate before you start to question yourself. What if Tony would be happier with an alpha?

Running With The Wolves Square: Y3 - Duty Everyone knows that the running of the wolves is rigged. So Steve isn't surprised when he is chosen as this year's sacrifice after offending Lord Hammer at the ball. The lycans guard their secrets well, so in the end Steve won't even know which one of them will end his life during the chase. What Steve doesn't know is that he has already caught the eye of one of the lords. And that a lycan protects his own until the day he dies.

Destiny Deserves Another Chance Square: Y4 - No Talent But High Hopes Steve is absolutely starstruck by the pirate who saves his village from destruction. When the mayor offers an omega's hand as a reward for his heroic deed, Steve wants nothing more than to be whisked away towards a better life. Anywhere would be better than here. He's devastated when the alpha chooses Sunset Bain instead. He never even looks at Steve, which makes sense, considering Steve looks nothing like a proper omega should, what with his height and muscles. It's probably better that he was spared the humiliation. And it's not like Steve has a chance to win the pirate's heart now that he's promised to another. Or so he thinks.

Where There Is Desire Square: Y5 - Stretching The cave that Steve and Tony stupidly get themselves trapped in demands a sacrifice of innocence to set them free. Steve offers to sacrifice his virginity. Tony fucking loves hates magic.

Fuck Being A Pirate, I Just Want To Live

➥ summary: He just wanted to live, was that too much to ask for?

➥ A/n: this is a x male reader story but anyone can read it if they so choose too

➥ chapter 6: The Call of the Wild

As the days passed on the mystical island, a remarkable discovery unfolded before me—an extraordinary connection with the creatures that called this place home. It started with a simple encounter, the animals of the jungle showing an uncanny interest in my presence. They would emerge from the foliage, their eyes filled with a mixture of curiosity and trust.

At first, I regarded this newfound attention with a sense of disbelief. Was it mere coincidence, or was there something more profound at play? As the days turned into weeks, however, the pattern became undeniable. Animals of all shapes and sizes were drawn to me as if I were one of their own. It was as if an invisible bond had formed, transcending the barriers of species.

Airborne creatures, their wings beating in a synchronized rhythm, would swoop down to greet me. Vibrant parrots perched on my shoulder, their colorful plumage a testament to the harmony between us. Land-dwelling creatures, such as monkeys and deer, would approach me with a trust that warmed my heart. Even the sea-born creatures, from playful dolphins to gentle turtles, would seek my presence along the shoreline.

Intrigued by this newfound connection, I ventured deeper into the heart of the island, guided by the calls of the wild. With each step, the chorus of animal voices grew louder, their harmonious symphony echoing through the lush vegetation. It was as if they were beckoning me, inviting me into their realm—a realm where the boundaries between human and animal blurred.

As I immersed myself in the world of these extraordinary creatures, I began to understand the depth of our connection. It went beyond mere companionship—it was a mutually beneficial relationship built on trust, respect, and an unspoken understanding. In return for the attention and care I bestowed upon them, the animals would offer their own form of gratitude—leaving gifts in the form of food and treasures they found in their natural habitats.

With each passing day, I reveled in this remarkable bond, cherishing the lessons and moments shared with the animal kingdom. I marveled at their innate wisdom, their instinctual understanding of the natural world. Together, we would roam the island, exploring hidden corners and uncovering the treasures of nature. They became my guides, revealing the secrets of the land, sea, and sky.

The animals of the island showcased a profound sense of guardianship, ensuring my well-being within their realm. They guided me to the ripest fruits, alerted me to hidden dangers, and provided me with sustenance. It was a symbiotic relationship—a delicate dance between human and animal, a testament to the interconnectedness of all living beings.

In their presence, I felt a deep sense of belonging—a profound fulfillment that transcended the constraints of my human existence. The animals seemed to accept me as one of their own, treating me with a tenderness and care that warmed my soul. I had become a part of their world, and they had become an integral part of mine.

With the animals as my allies, I gained a newfound perspective on the intricacies of nature. I witnessed the delicate balance between predator and prey, the unwavering devotion of a parent to its young, and the seamless rhythm of life's cycles. I became acutely aware of the harmony that resided within the island—a harmony that extended to the relationships between all creatures, myself included.

In this extraordinary realm, I discovered a profound truth—that the boundaries between human and animal are far more fluid than we often realize. Beneath the surface, we are all connected by the threads of life, bound by the shared experiences of survival and existence. It is in embracing this connection, in recognizing the kinship we share with the natural world, that we find a deeper understanding of ourselves.

As I navigated the island's vast expanse, guided by the creatures that had become my companions, I couldn't help but feel a sense of gratitude. The animals had offered me a glimpse into a world seldom witnessed—a world where mutual respect and harmony reigned. In return, I sought to honor their presence, to protect the fragile balance that sustained their existence.

In the quiet moments when the island slumbered beneath the starlit sky, I would reflect on the extraordinary bond I had forged with the animal kingdom. It was a bond rooted in trust, nurtured by compassion, and strengthened by the enduring power of connection. Through this profound relationship, I had come to realize that the call of the wild is not just a longing within the animals—it is a call that resonates within our own human hearts.

As I embraced my role as a caretaker of this mystical island, I vowed to protect and preserve its delicate ecosystem. With the guidance and support of the animals, I learned to tread lightly upon the land, leaving only the gentlest of footprints in my wake. Together, we became stewards of this remarkable place—a testament to the extraordinary possibilities that arise when we recognize the interconnectedness of all life.

In the tapestry of existence, the animals of the island became my teachers, my companions, and my friends. They bestowed upon me a gift of profound wisdom—a gift that transcended the boundaries of language and species. Through their eyes, I saw the world with a renewed sense of wonder, appreciating the intricate web of life that encompasses us all.

And as I walked alongside my animal allies, basking in their boundless love and acceptance, I understood that this extraordinary connection was a gift beyond measure. In their presence, I discovered not only the richness of the natural world but also the inherent capacity for compassion and unity within the human heart.

In this realm where human and animal coexisted in perfect harmony, I embraced the call of the wild—a call that echoed through the depths of my being. With each passing day, my appreciation for the wonders of nature grew, and my commitment to protect and honor the animals and their habitats deepened.

Together, we roamed the island, our hearts intertwined in a bond that transcended the boundaries of species. I had found my place among the creatures of the land, sea, and sky, forever grateful for the extraordinary gift they had bestowed upon me—the gift of a life enriched by the beauty, wisdom, and love of the natural world.
