Here's a cool little theory I shared on OSDS about OneShot (nothing grand, just a silly, cute little detail)
(OneShot Solstice spoilers ahead)
So, for this theory, let's take a look at one of the World Machine Edition wallpapers: Memory
[Image ID: A drawing of various writings and yellow phosphor objects, with in the middle, a photo of 4 people. From left to right, there are Cedric, Rue, then Prototype, and behind them is someone who most likely is the Author. End ID.]
In this picture, you can see that Cedric isn't wearing his usual yellow scarf, but either a light brown one, or simply a sort of turtleneck (I rather think it's a turtleneck). However, you can notice that the Author IS wearing a yellow scarf.
Now let's take a look at Cedric in-game.
[Image ID: Cedric's profile background from OneShot: World Machine Edition. End ID.]
In game, for example in his profile, you CAN see Cedric wearing a yellow scarf.
So here comes my theory: At some point before the world ended, the Author gave his scarf to Cedric, maybe as a parting gift or something.
As I said earlier, it's a silly little theory on a silly little detail, but I find it to be rather adorable. And I'm also quite surprised nobody noticed it before (unless someone actually did and I simply didn't know about it, in this case, I'm sorry).

something so special and heart-wrenching about caleb having the Wish spell and once again holding the power to try and rewrite what happened to him in the past in his hands but instead of going back to save his old family he uses it to protect his new one in Luc 🥺

Protorype, Cedric, and Rue as kids! I'm excited to see what you make with this prompt
Here you go!
i am not sure how i feel about this but i hope you’re happy with it💔💔
Prototype is basically a robot so I can’t exactly make him look like a kid since robots dont really change looks when growing up………… so i apologize if its not what you were expecting💔💔💔 ( now that i think more about it i shouldve changed his clothes somehow……)
I tried making Rue look really small and look more like a baby fox
otherwise, Cedric and everything else, i feel fine with! I hope you’re happy with everything

(OneShot spoilers ahead) . Okay so I wanted to add personality descriptions on Magpie and the Author's wiki pages since they don't have any, for now I wrote this, thoughts? Things in ( ) are things I'm unsure of by the way:
• The Author
While not much is know about him, it can be noted that he generally express himself in a very polite way in his notes adressed to the Player, and appears to care a lot about his creation and children. Additionally, he appears to be very talented, creating things such as flying machines. (It could also be assumed he wrote his own OneShot: World Machine Edition bio due to the use of the pronouns "I/Me", in which he displays curiosity about the now gone [Old world], but also seems to display self depreciation by calling himself a "sentimental fool".)
• Magpie
Magpie appears to be social with whoever might be his next customer, and is also described as "easygoing" in his OneShot: World Machine Edition bio. Additionally, his behaviour seems to reflect real-life birds at times, such as with his like of shiny and/or colourful objects. His shop working on bartain, he has some bartaining skills, (although it goes along with his taste in objects.) He may be recluant to trade some objects precious to him, but can do so if necessary, such as during the Solstice route.

whenever I hear glass beach color bars (specifically the glass beach version for whatever reason), my mind finds itself attaching the song to TWM. hear me out. (unless you haven't played OneShot / Solstice yet obv)
After the events of Solstice, Niko went home. The World Machine tried their best to rebuild, to repair the damage they'd done. But everything reminded them of Niko, how much they missed their friend. They begin to relive their memories over and over, desperate for the memories' warmth and comfort. Their time in the present is eaten by the past. It slips away, and eventually, so does everything else. Because they don't know how to live for the present anymore. And their world falls to disrepair.
This is such a weirdly vivid image, the kind I hardly ever get from a single song.
Maybe I just need to stop reading OneShot subtext into everything. but that would be boring.
