#ive been stewing on this for years

One of the biggest canon plotholes in the Toffipsa/p plotline for my AU happens in Stranger Danger, when Star is bargaining with her mom and says: “When Toffee was destroyed she’d be set free. Well, Toffee’s gone-”

Eclipsa was in the cell when Star said it and didn’t have any sort of reaction. There’s a few reasons why this is that I’ve come up with:

She simply just wasn’t paying attention/she didn’t comprehend the name being said (boo boring. Star said the name twice she couldn’t have ignored it both times. Edit: rewatched the episode and she said it THREE times.)

She didn’t assume that the Toffee they were referring to was her Toffee and brushed away the thought. Toffee was the affectionate nickname she gave him and never assumed he’d ever take it on as a real name. Considering their tragic fallout, she would never guess that he would even dream of using that name for himself. Along with this, the image she has of Toffee is this sweet little innocent precious boy, definitely not someone capable of murder much less someone who’d join an army.

She fully considered that the Toffee they referred to was her Toffee— just was able to keep her cool in the moment— and she had a mental crisis about it that night. However she eventually denied and dismissed the thought and tried to ignore it the best she could. That sweetheart lizard boy she knew and loved would never. He couldn’t even bring himself to hurt a fly. Plus she’d hate the idea that she caused the death of her childhood best friend, so she just went hard denial mode.

This was some sort of sadistic trick Seth was playing. Since he was the one who killed her mom, Eclipsa was already convinced that he was the one Moon was trying to kill because he had done the same thing to her. Seth was up to something and this was all some twisted game.

Something else? Possibly? That I haven’t thought of??

If only she knew it was him amiright.

Personally I think it’s a combo of 2 and 3 🫶🏻

You've shown several of the land animals that live in Promethea. Are there aquatic species too?

i forgot freshwater existed. that's fine, i might come back in the future and talk about some freshwater animals :'D

but anyway, yes! carnivorous whales, ichthyosaurs (uhhh i need to find a common name for those), semi aquatic sea wolves, and.. crab. are some of the different creatures i have so far, i know a fair bit less about marine biology but i like brainstorming so its fun.

promethea's south sea is pretty warm and mild (relative to the rest of cassandra) and is able to support a very high amount of biodiversity, including coral reefs :) (i cannot draw coral reefs yet). unfortunately due to the encroaching ice age, a lot of the animals in the oceans are becoming more and more threatened by dropping temperatures. sea wolves live next to this sea and swim between the many islands there.

the ocean to the west is much colder and prone to harsh storms and bad weather. this is where most of the whales tend to stay, where they serve as the cliff dweller pegasus's only natural predator.

#im very bad at designing fish. come back in 5 years maybe #SGBFIJVF but thats mostly what i have. i have vague ideas for the south sea but thats in a lot of turmoil rn due to. temp changes #people talking to me #promethea #THANK UUUUUUUU FOR THIS ASK BTW THIS HAS ALL BEEN STEWING IN MY BRAIN I NEEDED AN EXCUSE TO GET IT OUT. #maybe i'll develop all of these bitches more now #(except the sea wolves those guys have actually been around for a long time) #i literally dont think ive ever made art of something underwater....? maybe i did years ago but i cant remember... i need to do that more #sick n twisted #my art #<- completely forgot that i made art for this post immediately after talking about said art

had my stepdad's funeral today (not my current stepdad) and hoooooo boy the abandonment issues are in full swing :)

#not a single mention of me in his obituary - as if the 15 or so years where he raised me suddebly didn't matter anymore - #- bc he and my mom were no longer married. all his current step kids were listed though :) (along with their partners/spouses) #i didn't even get to sit up front with everyone. i sat in the very back of the room in the very last row. #and you know what? i really fucking needed the comfort of my step brothers #like i was 10 again and they were the only ones standing between me and him when his temper got ugly #i got it at the end at the cemetery where we all three hugged really tight. but i still would've liked to sit beside them. #it was just like i was sort of overlooked the whole time - which in fairness i havent actually been his stepkid in 10 years #but. idk. it still hurt. #bc i also noticed it with my own parents #people are always shocked when i tell them that yes - this is my dad and this is my mom #bc they know their Other Kids. not me. #it's like a friend said: sometimes it's not the middle child that's forgotten. it's the eldest. #ok sorry rant over ive just been stewing over this all day #cj talks

i don't have any big opinion on cdpr changing characters' ages* but i think its extremely funny that panam is older than dagger now

#*this is sorta old news. from their valentines day tinder posts #dagger is 31 in '77 and panam iirc is now 33 (?) #i always envisioned dagger older than her and owning it even though it's only a couple years #funnier now when he calls her kid to piss her off more #though i have been thinking about aging him up a little bit so idk. #blorbos age with me yk #i can't cope being the same age kdlafjkdlajfkdsla #ANYWAY ive been stewing on a dagger and panam phototstory for weeks #i love their dynamic

#throwback to me being unsure which leg kaz broke & putting a snippet on discord while waiting patiently for tepesh to correct me if needed #i just have so many ideas for this one and i really want to do it justice!!! so ive just been stewing on it for like 2 years #femboykaz #asks

#i like that its short esp the first one i like four letter names #i like that its only one syllable and i like that it has a ~weird letter~ #i just dunno if it fits ive been stewing on it for months and i cant tell if i actually like it enough to be it yknow #i feel like it kiiiinda makes sense especially when i have the green on the left side of my hair (been too lazy to dye it lately) #it just feels kinda weird too tho like. maybe a little pretentious if that makes sense? #plus theres multiple characters i like with that name one of which i latched onto HARD in middle school (ninjago zane) #so im unsure if i actually like the name or am just associating it with those characters / am doing it for fandom reasons?? #which i want to steer away from truth be told i have a weird uncle named dave so whenever someone used it for me #my brain would bypass homestuck (literally the reason i picked it) and remind me of my weird uncle (just some guy #who i had to threaten to unfriend so he'd stop sending me six trillion facebook game requests) #and who i then unfriended like a year later anyways #and it also has now been permanently ruined by the 2015 trans boy named dave jokes because it would be entirely accurate #idk. idk idk idk

hey wait do you think mobians/animal people themselves are descended from the ancients? here, i have a thing:

seventh grade science evolution chart, baby!

phylogeny my beloved. okay short answer is probably not? i think the ancients and the mobians are two different things. there’s only a select few Chao that look identical to the main cast- the rest are just strange little guys that can copy other animal traits. i can’t quite articulate what i want to say but i don’t entirely think they’re like, ancestors to the mobians.

1) i feel like perfect chaos wouldn’t have killed the echidnas if they evolved from the koco/Chao? either because perfect chaos is an ancient or a mutated Chao himself. i feel like their must be some solidarity between the two.

2) i feel like it would be important to note that ancients share dna similarity to mobians as WELL as the chao, but right now it’s just the Chao that are related

3) i’d be curious to how the babylons fit into this, as aliens themself who look similar to mobians

(note: they may have evolved from flickies. but the flickies themself are not Normal Woodland Creatures- they have dimensional travel and a connection to the chaos emeralds)

4) . does blaze’s world have their own version of the ancients? how would mobians life on blazes world work?

5) i don’t really think the critters/woodland friends came from Chao, either. Chao seem to be able to adopt those body parts from them, so I don’t know how that would completely work. the same sort of goes with mobians… i know the chao genes are pretty flexible but if they didn’t have something to base themselves off of, im not sure they would be able to evolve into SO many different species (bugs, reptiles, mammals). so if the chao are connected to the mobians i think the critters would be SEPERATE; that the chao based themselves off those critters/adopted their features to blend in until they gained sentience

6) i wonder where the humans come into play with this concept

i think there’s an undeniable connection between sonic, Chao, chaos emeralds, and the ancients. but i think it’s mostly kind of just a sonic exclusive thing; so while sonic might stem from the aliens, and you might even be able to argue some of his friends, i don’t see mobians as a whole stemming from them.

#i think you could make the argument that the babylons evolved like this but im not sure all of mobius did #ALSO I HOPE THIS DOESNT COME OFF AS MEAN. #it’s a very interesting idea that has A LOT of interesting implications….. #especially like. humans. #there is of course a good explanation that upon evolution the mobians forget they descended from Chao/koco #but i FEEL like they would have made that connection by now #like how humans know they come from like. apes and stuff. #i understand why they wouldn’t know about a connection not the ancients- starfall islands seems to have pulled an angel island #and disappeared off the map for like hundreds of thousands of years #so there wasn’t any ancient dna to mess with #but they would probably know if they came from chao by now #of course i am firmly willing to suspend my disbelief on these things because this is a talking hedgehog who kills gods #master emerald brothel #ive been stewing in this for a while because i have been contemplating the idea #it definitely could work i think there could be evidence for it #but im not sure that’s what sega is trying to hint at
