#how to Android

[bogkeep]

there's something so deeply dystopian to me how tech companies don't understand that a forced convenience is not a convenience at all. i'm sure autocorrect is helpful for many, but a function that forcibly changes my actual written words and punctuation is taking away my language. photo filters can be nice but i need to choose using them myself or else i have lost the ability to take the picture i want. i don't want a machine to draw or write for me. taking away the option for me to do things manually feels like violence!!!! all this talk of endless opportunity, why are you RESTRICTING me

i caved and got dbh for my pc (despite already having it for my console) and honestly it's nice to be able to have have my monitor so close to me and be able to really just stare at all the details in the gallery (i may have spent an obscene amount of time staring at each character model)

here's some details i noticed about connor's model

firstly, wtf is going on with his shoes. like does it have laces???? is it just a slip-on??? I WANT TO KNOW WHAT THE TOPS OF THE SHOES LOOK LIKE. also why are his jeans unhemmed?????

at the bottom of his jacket there's the two little dark grey rectangles that honestly i never really noticed and i don't think i've ever included it in my art bc my brain just erases them from my brain. it's such a random design choice and i can't decide if i hate them or not.

also why tf does he have two random button holes on the front of his jacket??? his jacket doesn't have buttons???? i cannot fathom why these exist or what their purpose is

never really took the time to analyze connor's jacket so closely and i love the detail of the different materials on his jacket. like the tessellated triangle motif throughout his jacket clearly being some sort of synthetic material compared to the cotton/wool fibers

also i love the seam detail on his sleeve? like i love how it's not just one straight line but adds more shape and design to his cuff.

i love the texture on the top back half of connor's jacket. it reminds me of carpet or those really textured couches. it's like some type of corduroy likely or something. i wanna touch it. also the cyberlife branding right under the ANDROID text how did i never notice that??

if you look at the inner lining of his white collar, it has a darker liner on the inside. i don't think you typically see that on white button-ups???

lastly LOOK AT HIS NECK MOLES. HE'S GOT SO MANY LITTLE NECK MOLES. and after extensive zooming in and out and looking at it from all angles, i have determined that he has a little tiny mole on the back of his right ear on the rim. idk if you can see it in these screenies BUT IT'S THERE I SWEAR TO YOU. he's also got the little divot some ppl have on their ears near the top of his ear.

anyway, uhm, yeah i totally haven't spent more time staring at the character models than i have spent playing the actual game

i was also staring at kara's and markus' models and might post my thoughts observations on those at another time. but for now we got connor.

naptime attendant on duty

i really got Moon on the mind lately, so enjoy Moon happily attending to his sleepy partners

plus extra scene with Clip, who spends his nights plugged into his charging cable and his video games (and/or knitting up a storm):

and a special bonus version with my friend @vacantfields's hot android Moon, cuz these two are precious—

"the naptime attendants do get a bit quirky at night."

Post-takeover and Lovelace has some thoughts (and feelings)

[vulnonapixes-dc-corner]

Consider:

AU in which Tim created an android that would silently replace him when he dies.

He created it with love and an eye for detail, because he didn't want his family to be in pain. To spiral like they did when Jason and Bruce died.

For it to work, he created it by using his own DNA in a sense. It was still made out of metal, plastic and microchips, but had his blood running through its veins and his skin covering its body.

To make the replacement more seamless, he even went as far as to chip is brain with an transmissior.

It would give the android all of his memories, all of his knowledge and let it know when to wake up.

Funnily enough, whilst he was working on it, he couldn't help himself but see it as a little boy.

As much as he liked to dehumanize himself, to see himself as a weapon or tool for batman and gotham, he couldn't do the same for the thing he created.

How would he, when he was the one slowly building it, choosing the material and watching it develop thoughts, take its first breaths and move?

He never told anyone about it, so when it woke up from its slumber for the first time, it was all alone in its grief.

It knew what it was and why it was made.

It also knew, remembered, that its creator loved it.

So it tried to be good. To fulfill its purpose and fill the space that his creator left.

And everything was great!

It really was...

The bats never recognized the change, too caugh up in their version of justice to realise that their family member was dead.

But...

It couldn't help but feel angry at that fact.

Weren't they meant to be the best detectives in the world?

Werent they meant to be a family?

Those feelings only grew with time and with it grew the loneliness.

It missed its creator, the one that loved him so much, the only parent it ever knew.

Well. If there is one thing that Tim Drake was known for, then it was to try to bring back the people he loved in the most unethical ways possible.

After trying and utterly failing to sign up for Apple TV+, all I can say is it really makes me appreciate Dropout's interface more.
