since I saw your post of frank going butterfly hunting with their skirt, it got me wondering..what if eddie too had a skirt!

I imagine frank got him into the whole flowy dress ordeal. probably wears one when going through his mail shift or while working on the garden with frank.

oh my gosh...matching skirts!

considering that apparently Eddie has done drag, i imagine that its probably the other way around!!

i gotta a little lost in the sauce w/ these and forgot what the rest of the ask said besides "FranklyDear in skirts" oopsies <3

#I REMEMBERED THE MATCHING SKIRTS PART THO #i came to answer the ask and went '...ah. there was a lot more to it' #im starting to really enjoy drawing skirts #so maybe in the future i Will scribble him just going about his day in a skirt #tho im Very Obviously not used to doodling non-pleated ones #evidence: eddie in the first scribble #also adding eddie to the ever-growing list of characters i Cannot draw consistently #hes all over the place here #anyhow THEYRE EVERYTHING TO ME <3<3<3<3 #anon thank you for this opportunity 🙏 #scribble salad #welcome home #welcome home puppet show #franklydear #i continue to wish i found skirts remotely comfy. id probably pull em off really well #sigh... ill just have to settle for slapping them on not only my own characters but others' as well

Your 3 part series of The South Downs Cottage are incredible!! I keep coming back to look at them, and my mind keeps spinning with all possible outcomes. It would be amazing if you were planning on part 4… is there still hope somewhere?? For the part 4, for THEM??? It’s devastating and breathtaking at the same time. Gorgeous work!

There you go !

nah jk

Do you know how to fix the "Shloomp. There It Is" episode? This can be done MIS style by putting Chase Young in Nomicon's place. After all, Chase Young was able to obtain the evil essence Omi of the Yin-Yang World. Why doesn't he do the same to Randy for a chance to get to the First Ninja? This idea addresses many important issues. Firstly, a dubious lesson from Nomicon (he put the guys in danger in the original plot development), and secondly, the very existence of NomiRandy. Where did he come from? Thirdly, this will limit Randy’s activities, which means he will not be able to get out of the Yin-Yang world on his own and get into someone else’s body. Poof! I forbid rc9gn characters from moving into other people’s bodies so easily!Randy's fall to the side of darkness will infuriate the First Ninja, which fits perfectly with the concept of his relationship with Chase Young. In addition, it will be a kind of bitter reminder: “Look, I took from you the one who at one time took from me the best chance to win you over to my side.” The First Ninja was at his most vulnerable mentally when he was going through a crisis, and only the appearance of Randy made him perk up. The First Ninja will not be able to come to terms with the fact that Randy has become evil (and even more arrogant).NomiRandy may be more than just arrogant. He may represent the vengeful part of Randy. He will probably say something that will plunge the First Ninja into long thoughts, because he will not be able to deny what he said, since it is a part of Randy, and not just his opposite. NomiRandy is everything that the First Ninja never wanted to accept in Randy himself, so this will be some kind of test for him? Very high quality test. Another plus in the karma of this idea.NomiRandy is not stupid, but he is a brutal teenager who doesn't need anyone. Because of this value system, he will not be able to become a part of society, because when he grows up with his peers, his brutality will lose its meaning. Deep down, Randy wants to show others his rebellious nature, what he can really be, but he will have to understand that being NomiRandy all the time is depriving himself of a future. Then this thirst will stop snowballing. A good lesson for any teenager, including Ninjas.So this idea is great, it has conflict, meaning and a "little" Chase Young/First Ninja feud of course. Chase Young is going to give morals for once (especially for the First Ninja), even if that wasn't his intention in the first place, because damn it, Chase Young was never JUST evil. He is many hundreds of years old, he is wise enough so that he does not have to prove it to others. That's why in this scenario I put him in the place of Nomicon, who was supposed to teach the Ninja. He could have locked Randy's moral self in the Yin-Yang world, not just to annoy the First Ninja and force him to accept his terms, but because "I may take YOUR place in the eyes of YOUR students, but the outcome will be the same as the outcome of the one that NomiRandy has taken Randy's place" (that is, a crossed out future for the whole world), or "we can feud not only physically" (Chase Young is a manipulator; he can not only give dubious advice to Randy, but also really important lessons for both him, same for the First Ninja; a kind of care, similar to medicine: whether you like it or not, sooner or later you will need it, but by taking it, you are slowly destroying yourself, because it contains a small dose of poison, and Chase Young will give for his own purposes you just enough to destroy you). What happened will also hit the value system of the First Ninja, which he chose in the afterlife. Chase Young has never been susceptible to petty mischief. In a ship with someone like the First Ninja, this should be emphasized more often.

What other episodes would you like to fix in this way?

Oh, wow, this is a very intriguing and very detailed idea that is certainly worth exploring!

There is a lot to process, and I've been thinking about it for...like a week, and I'm not sure if I got everything, so if I misunderstood anything I apologize (my brain no work so good sometimes lol sorry), but I wanted to offer you my opinion if you want it!

In general I prefer to leave canon alone and just loosely refer to events that happen in cartoon, especially RC9GN, so I never thought of rewriting/fixing an episode (I mean they are sort of 'rewritten' in my head with better lore and just cooler but like nothing definite). With MIS I tend to concentrate primarly on Finja and Chase first, and the kids are sort of in the background for me. I only had like two? three? ideas that are episode & Randy/Monks related and those are mostly in Xiaolin Showdown, and one of them is in Favorite Warrior AU, lol. And even those are not rewrites/fixers but crossover fusion - the events happen almost exactly the same but just with more characters involved. So I can't say I have many idea for rewrites/fixers in RC9GN that would involve MIS.

But what I do like, is using canon to suppliment idea for 'after' cartoon canon, so after reading your idea, I wanted to offer you a slightly different take: let the canon episode happen, but then use it to build an even more serious situation with Chase, like you described and it would hit everyone involved even harder.

Let me explain my reasoning more (this might get a bit long, be warned!):

Let's start with canon first - In my opinion 'Shloomp There it is' episode is fine by itself, however dumb it might seem at first.

I kind of agree with you on the first point, about it being a dubious way to teach a lesson, but to be absolutely fair - it was a very dubious and silly problem originally, that Randy created by being a little bit of an idiot himself. So as in theme with the show, the problem and solution kind of fit each other.

Secondly, NomiRandy. I also agree about your point of Where did he come from and where the heck did he go? Well I have (most likely unpopular) opinions about that.

Personally I believe that NomiRandy is not an actual evil representation Ninjanomicon somehow created from Randy himself, but rather it is a caricature of him that Nomicon created by itself. It's an absolutely fake doppleganger that only looks like Randy on the surface - with many of his negative and opposite traits amplified to a comical degree, but not really an evil entity made of Randy's deepest dark desires. It's nothing more but a papermache puppet Ninjanomicon used to teach a lesson and later discarded, and thats why we never see him again, because he wasn't real in any shape or form so after returning to Nomicon he doesn't exist anymore.

(I am very much aware that my headcanons about NomiRandy are probably in minority, because this fandom absolutely adores NomiRandy, lol)

So, NomiRandy was a relatively mild threat used as a mild solution to fix a problem created by Randy being a bit of an idiot.

Your third point, about Randy being limited in his activities, is where I have to disagree with you a bit more. Because what's the point of teaching the lesson if a big part of Randy is not there to learn it? I mean, in canon version Randy actually witnessed NomiRandy act as an asshole which helped him realize that he himself was acting foolishly. And him having to fight himself but in Howard's body was actually pretty interesting concept of Randy having to actually physically confront his failings and bad traits head on.

There is also something to say about the fact that the only ones involved into body swap were people who were in the Nomicon at first , so one could argue that the body/mind swap was controlled by Ninjanomicon, that it used to make a point for Randy. (But that would be a thought for another time, lol.)

So, as you can see, in my opinion the episode is relatively fine by itself, and if we replace Ninjanomicon with Chase - the total tone shift will change all of it drastically. Not to mention the lesson itself will change, becoming more serious and with actual consequences - all of it would be something completely different.

And while it absolutely could work and the idea of this rewrite by itself is incredibly intriguing, I think it would work better as a continuation, as more dire development for after the end of the series.

You might ask why the end of the series? Well primarily because of my own headcanon that Chase in general tends to stay out of Norrisville Ninja business out of respect to First and also because they change so fast, (I mean what are 4 years to immortal??) he rarely gets to pay attention to them, let alone get interested in them and their usefullness to his agenda with First. But if something big happens, like I dunno, Randy defeating Ghoulian and unmaking the Sorcerer himself it would make Chase pay attention to Randy and realize how useful he can be.

The other important reason, is because of episode 'Winner Takes Ball' where we catch the tiniest glimpse of the actual evil side of Randy that appeared thanks to influence of Chaos Ball. He is power hungry, he is so sure of himself, he is cocky, he is merciless and ruthless and most importantly he still loves being THE Ninja. There is no annoyed apathy and uncaringness that NomiRandy displayed, this Evil Randy would have been just as hyper as normal Randy, enjoying his newfound powers just as much, but also would be unburdened with morals of using those powers.

Because, you see, I think Actual Evil version of Randy is in many ways would be a lot like an Evil version of Omi. Evil Omi was hyper pumped, thriving on newfound power, in this new freedom from morals, ruthless and doing what he wanted, rather than what is right. And what he wanted is to fight, to show everyone how talented he was, that he was the best warrior there ever was.

And what does Randy want? Constantly throughout the show Randy expresses his delight at being the Ninja (unlike some protagonists that find themselves suddenly thrust into a hero role, Randy takes to it instantly, there is literally ZERO hesitation from this boy), he loves it and most importantly he wants to be this strong, powerful, capable and amazing.

But that is also one of the most important Ninjanomicon continues to impart on the Ninjas - not to be this prideful and arrogant, and chase after power with such disregard to everything else.

So, now picture it like this:

Chase learns about Randy and what he has done, and how talented and powerful this new ninja is. At some point he discovers about NomiRandy and what happened, and it gives him an idea.

Chase Reverse Chi-s Randy, and this Evil Randy is still Randy in many ways, and it would absolutely devastate First to see him like this - power-hungry and ruthless, disregarding everything that Ninjanomicon taught him to prevent exactly this fall to Darkness and Evil, and the worst part is he has been taken under Chase's wing not only to nurture and encourage this new evil seedling - but to taunt First and Ninjanomicon, because - isn't it what you once wanted to teach him by creating NomiRandy? About his dark self that should be kept in check and balanced in a good warrior, good ninja? But your lesson was deeply flawed and now look at me, I will do a so much better job than you ever attempted, and I will show this young Ninja, that it's not only the bad side that needs to be balanced but the good side as well.

Which would play into what you said earlier - NomiRandy, or in this case just Evil Randy - will be so power-hungry and thirsty for fighting, he will disregard many things, like the fact that existing like that is impossible - even such urges must be tampered in order to actually live a fullfilling (if evil) life. And who is better to show and teach it to him than Chase Young, who (most likely) spent centuries in the beginning of his immortal life so hungry for battle, he served as an attack dog for Hannibal Roy Bean. But with time Chase has found balance in his new evil existence, and that helped him to overcome Roy Bean and rise to new heights.

That comparison about how Roy Bean controlled Chase, can also can influence how Randy views Ninjanomicon (and by extension First), and how tightly it tries to hold reigns of Ninjas it teaches. I mean, Randy sometimes resented the lessons and rules Ninjanomicon gives, we've seen it a few times, but Evil Randy will feel all of that frustration and annoyance even more, like a rebelious teenager that saw how controlling the authoriive figure in their life is and it will poison his relationship with Ninjanomicon.

And First? Well, Evil Randy could also bring up how Randy, a supposedly not-good enough for your high-and-mighty Ninja Rules and Forbidden Powers managed to do what the original oh-so-powerful Ninja could not - finally defeat the Sorcerer. About how a teenager that you dumped your mask on, your responsibility, and kept holding back with all your stupid rules and limitations - did what you couldn't in 800 years. And what can First even answer to that? Because its all true, no matter how poisoned Evil Randy's view may be, the bare facts are all true.

So, First can only watch, helpless and angry and so so sad, how Chase takes under his wing the one who saved the world from Sorcerer (not even once, but twice) and twists that raw power and energy that served for good into something that will serve evil. ( And the worst part, is that it all happened because of First - because of Chase's initial interest in First. All in an attempt to get to him.)

And well, like you said, there could be two endings - where Evil Randy is here to stay (aka Very Bad Ending lol), or where Good Randy makes it out of Ying-Yang world and reunites with his Evil self again.

But even then, the damage will be done. Because Chase's lessons could still continue. I mentioned earlier about lessons in balance, and how in good warrior, not only his dark side should be kept in check, but his good side also. In a way, I think Good Randy will lack a very important part to being a Ninja - and its the ruthlessness that Evil Randy brandishes like a blunt weapon, but with Chase it could be sharpened into a precise tool, and if Good and Evil reunite, the lesson will be still carried over.

And not only that will be carried over, but all the words and feelings that Evil Randy experienced -Randy will remember, and that can forever change and/or damage his relationship with Ninjanomicon and First. And Chase? Well, Randy will also remember that Chase was not just an Evil Jerk that split him in half - he actually tried to help and teach his Evil self to control himself better, so the seedling of mentor&mentee relationship will still be there.

After all of this, I have to admit, unlike you, I have a harder time imagining how exactly the situtation will help Chase sway/manipulate First to his side. I mean, this way Chase might probably sway Randy to his side, especially if he somehow orchestrates the return of Good Randy and says that all of this was just a lesson to help Randy be a better warrior, because he just couldn't watch all this talent wither away under Ninjanomicon's dubious tutelage.

But when it comes to First, If anything, I think it will actually backfire horribly. First is already constantly unstable in his regards to Chase, but something like this will only solidify his belief in Chase being a manipulator that could never be trusted, because its one thing to try and manipulate First to his side, but its another to involve his kid successor. First might even lose whatever respect he had for the immortal, because he would view manipulation of children as beneath him (of course I think Chase will argue, that those young warriors are hardly children).

I think I mentioned it before in some ask, but I personally believe that if Chase will try to get to Randy it will just send First into apocleptic levels of anger, and destroy any slim chances Chase had, and will literally set him back to zero in his progress with First, lol.

But that's just my personal view, you probably have some really good ideas about that! ;D

On another note, a tiny thing I got to disagree with a little - is about Chase being above 'petty mischief'. I can agree about Chase not being particularly petty, but mischief? In my opinion, this immortal lizard is very much into mischief, albeit a more strategic type of mischief. xD This is the man who continuously taunted pre-teens while trying to manipulate one of them to his side, and also continuously made poor Jack's life hell.

Though admittiedly, I like to think that being around First Ninja brings out more of Chase's mischevious side (opposite to his cruel and uncaring sides) - partially because First Ninja doesn't always reacts the way Chase expects him to. And sometimes Ninja catches Chase before he gets into a scheme and that sometimes leaves Chase himself wrong-footed. And partially because, Chase grew to enjoy testing Ninja's patience a little too much, after the got to know each other better.

But you are right about the fact that in this ship it should empathized more how much of a threat and manipulator Chase could be, the problem is i can't write this type of characters like at all, lol, to my great dissapointment i just don't know how to do it well. xD So that version of Chase just kind of exists half-baked in my mind, and meanwhile in my art and fics he just turns into a mischevious asshole with all his schemes in background, haha.

Anyway, I tried really hard to adress everything you mentioned and offer some insights and ideas, but i still feel like i might have missed something, so - sorry about that! I know its probably not the answer you quite expected, but I do hope it was sufficient, and if not - that at least it was entertainin to read! ;3

#que? #ninja showdown #long post #sorry it took so long but i like to make sure my answers are coherent before i just hit send xD you have no idea how incomprehensible #my first draft of this was lol i promise ill get to your other asks soon! it might take some time tho lol sorry #also thank you for the asks! ;3 i do love to read your insights. they are very interesting ;) #gosh after reading this ask for like a week to compose my answer i am now cravin a fic where Chase does Reverse Chi Randy to mess with Firs

Ooo who is Azrael? :)

he’s like.. if you left a devil out to dry in the sun during a heatwave and it shriveled into a tiefling. my crinkled rotten gum wrapper <3

He's weird and grouchy and mean and knows literally nothing about how to function in society. He grumbles when he talks, only to shout several decibels louder than you would think he's capable of. He’s got chronic pains. He hates being touched. He smokes shitty cigars that he rolls himself. He's a delight to have in class.

(some. somewhat-earlier art before i said 'lets give him. even bigger horns-')

How long is eclipse??? It’s concerning to think of him just crawling around the place and on the stairs

LONG AS FUCK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 😁👍

Genuine answer tho is that tbh I kinda change it depending on the context LOL 😭 I did do a wholeass post last night tho where I concluded he'd need to be like, 50 feet long to dangle from the gear bridge like in that one post I made, but!! Upon thinking a lil longer, I think the minimum will always be 20 feet (609cm) long but can range up to like, 200 feet (6096cm) just because I think it would be scarier and, thus, cooler 2 me LMAO

#asks #anon #I think when he /first/ got the centipede body it was 20 feet long #and then as time went on he just got longer n longer either out of choice or bc the star got silly LOL #he probably has a way to make the castle more accessible to him tho! #or /only/ accessible to him tbh 😭 #lord eclipse: oh thank the star i changed the castle layout so i'm not so cramped anymore #servant sun staring at the doorway 3 stories up with no stairs: m. my lord. i think you forgot something here. #tsams #lord eclipse au #lord eclipse #centiclipse

Will you play through the series because honestly 3 is the least gay mg game. I cant even think of anything other than a small part you're not at yet. Wait til you experience the solid snake(snavid ❤️) games. That's where the gay is. They're my favorites personally. You're so lucky experiencing them for the first time!!

Yeah!! I really wanted to start with the snavid ones, but I figured chronological would be best for me. so far it's pretty much just ocelot that's actually gay lol, but I'm real excited for more gay to come

#metal gear solid #first ask! thank you anon :D #the gay is part of the reason i started playing but if playing 3 tells me anything its that whatever you expect the game gives you 100x that #really excited for snavid tho always wanted to play mgs since i played him in smash how ever long ago brawl was

I looked into his background on an ancestry thing and Elena’s parents were both born in Italy and had full Italian names. So idk what the hell he is

Ballet slipper, Salmon, Hibiscus and Hot pink :)

woah you and orchid are on the same brainwave or something LOL

ballet slipper — with only one word, describe how you feel at this moment

answered here! but i would also say i feel really content right now—got some good news recently and i have a lot of things to look forward to in the next few weeks so it kinda outweighs any of the usual stress haha

salmon — would you prefer a partner who is an introvert or an extrovert? why?

also answered LOL. but i also wanna re-evaluate my answer because a lot of my close outgoing friends are introverts too, so my previous answer doesn't really have anything to do with the question. i would say i'd rather have an introverted partner because i think they'd understand my introverted tendencies more (and vice versa) and i think having a good understanding of each other is more important in a relationship than anything else

hibiscus — what’s your favorite pet name, if any? why?

TOUGH. i think any pet name is nice because you never really ask someone to call you one particular thing, it usually comes out as a reflection of how they see you and that in itself is sweet. i do have a soft spot for "love" though (and also doll but i can and will blame ryen @kithtaehyung for that)

hot pink — what’s your favorite relationship trope?

oh my godddd the "character A fell first but character B fell harder" trope gets me every single time. i love so many tropes but this particular one can be applied to any other trope (f2l, e2l, fake dating, etc.) and always work

send me pink themed asks :D

#thank you eric :DD #ask #ask game #s169r66a #the doll thing didnt start with 3tan for me tho one of the first bts fics i ever read had and it Really Stuck with me but it wasnt common #i see it a lot more frequently now im calling that ryens impact <3

Please please please I need to know what you dislike about bg3 cause I love hearing flaws in things people praise (nothing is ever perfect) ((I am a huge bg3 fan and have my own gripes))

assuming this is about that vague text post I made a little while ago, all I'll say is playing Dark Urge makes me a bit uncomfortable as I don't enjoy the fact the character you're required to kill and the character you are heavily encouraged and incentivized to kill in that story are both women only shown to be attracted to other women and those are the only two characters the game ties Dark Urge specific rewards to when that easily could have Not Been The Case

if this is more in general I think I could literally list what I dislike about this game forever, but that's true of pretty much every game I love with few exceptions

#I will not go into more detail #and this is NOT an invitation to come debate me or “well actually” me #if I get asks like that I will just delete them #I am aware there is a (very hidden not well known) workaround with the first character #I am aware you do not HAVE to kill the second character #but that does not negate the fact those are the characters chosen and there is a pattern between them when there DIDN'T NEED TO BE #and I also do not think this was done with malice on the part of writers #but I do think there's an overall problem in all mediums wrt not thinking about the bigger picture of representation #that leads to stuff like this #ANYWAYS #I'd go into more detail if this wasn't a public post but I'm being mindful of spoilers #thank you for the ask tho <3 #I love to gossip and bitch about stuff I'd usually have a better answer #but not on a public post!!

“ hey, kiddo. how do you feel? “

❛ i think my arms are gonna fall off. ❜

he winces at the tender, trembling muscles in question. they bothered him more than the grazes on his face and chin; he'd earned these battle scars after having his legs kicked out from beneath him. because one of the men- perhaps guard would be more accurate and/or fitting- had recently taken a particular dislike to him. the reason? they didn't like his face. they really, really didn't like his face. the shoves and the random punches and kicks hurt, sure. but maybe not as much as the knowledge that he was a target for them, that they were singling him out specifically. that unnerving information often silenced any jokes or comments or challenges that arose within him.

because it was the thought, the t h r e a t, of an audience with h i m. in that office, in that chair. that was what kept him awake most nights in line. relatively.

today, he'd been tasked with lugging around what he was certain had to be bowling balls. it sure felt like that, anyway. maybe it was rocks. or bricks or something? he wasn't sure anymore. he didn't care. anymore. although days at howe's dragged by agonisingly, they often bled into one another. they strived or struggled for the same goal, day after day; carver was hell-bent on forever strengthening, expanding and fortifying the place. his kingdom. whilst simultaneously destroying, weakening and sometimes even obliterating entirely the morale, faith and health of the inhabitants of their community.

❛ i better look like freaking popeye by the time this is done, man. ❜ he follows up weakly.

if it ever would be.

sometimes, most days, it felt like he was never going to see or know anything but these walls. and this place.

sometimes, he felt like taking his chances out there. he thought and dreamt about it often. of the opportunity to do so. but maybe that was all it could be. a dream. an impossible one, at that.

❛ how about you? tough day at the office? ❜
