Session with Jongin Centric Fic Fest Mods Part 1

Fanfiction preferences may vary, but our love for Jongin is the common thread that binds us! In this episode, we’re diving into the beautiful contrast within fanfiction literature—because different perspectives don’t have to clash; they can coexist and make our fandom experience even richer. Get ready for a fun, thought-provoking ride as we explore how diversity in storytelling brings us closer together!

A very warm welcome to listeners and my guests here today. If you are new here, I am Alexio Sospranio, and you're listening to the kaisoo fic podcast.

These few days we will be celebrating Kai’s military discharge by talking to moderators of the Ultimate Top Kim Jongin and Nini Planet fic fests.

At the point of recording for this episode, Jongin has unfortunately not returned, meaning also that Nini Planet’s postings are already out, but Ultimate Top Kim Jongin’s postings are not out yet.  

Part One 

What unites the two fests is our most beloved Jongin of course.

The main thing that sets them apart is of course that one fest is top kai and another is bottom nini.

This is going to be a two parter episode, because there is a lot to discover and dive deep into the fic fests these moderators have put time and effort into.

This episode is a two part episode. First part is today, dated the 12th, second part will be on the 14th. 

Today on the 12th is the first part where we will discuss how the two Jongin centric fests came to life, how prompts are organised. Managing deadlines, to find that sweet spot in managing expectations and interest of readers and having the writers to have power over their creative freedom.

The second part, on the 14th we will be going through the applications they use, the fests promotion and support from the community and ship statistics.  

But as always, before the episode proper, I would like to take some time to introduce the representative moderators for the two fic fests.

First up we have Mod Rose from Ultimate Top Kim Jongin!

Mod Rose has been in this fandom since (late 2016 but only around 2017 stumbled into the ficdom), that's about (9 years?). The pull factor that got her into this fandom was (Jonginie) and (he was told go do an aegyo on a radio show, he said noona buy me chicken and had probably played it 1000 times) when she was (a struggling student). Mod Rose is currently into (naruto shippuden and the song on loop is always sinner by kai). 

Welcome Mod Rose, we are pleased to have you on the kaisoo fic podcast! Do you have any opening comments you would like to make?

Well thanks for having me and excited for today! 

The pleasure is all mine, i am equally as excited too! 

Second guest for today’s episode we have Nini Planet! Neither of the Mods in Nini Planet are on this recording today. Unfortunately, due to schedules being unforgiving for the mods, they are unavailable. But we hope they come next time. For today we have the ever supportive and dedicated Marcus with us to voice over for them today. Marcus will take the persona of both Mod Gommie and Mod Nini. 

Mod Gominie has been in this fandom since 2012, that's about 13 years. The pull factor that got her into this fandom was the predebut EXO teasers and Jongin was the first to catch her eye. Mod Gominie’s current obsession is BL manhwa and dramas. The Jongin song that she has been playing on loop recently is Say You Love Me by Kai.

Mod Nini has been in this fandom since 2018, that's over 6 years. The pull factor that got her into this fandom was Jongin and she fell in love with him the moment she saw him in “Call Me Baby.” Mod Nini is still into Jongin’s last album, Rover. 

Welcome Mod Gominie and Mod Nini, we are pleased to have you on the kaisoo fic podcast! Do you have any opening comments you would like to make?

Mod Gominie: I’ve never participated in a podcast before so this is all new to me. Thanks for having us!

Mod Nini: Hello! I am happy to be a part of this episode. Though we never really imagined that we will get to share about our fest through a podcast, we will try our best to introduce ourselves and our fest nicely to the listeners.  

I think that is the beauty of this podcast. We get to hear from the creatives in the ficdom. From writers to artists to readers to organisers of real life events to moderators like you for fic fests.

And likewise, I will do my best to make everyone’s participation pleasant. 

Brace yourselves, this will be a long two episode recording.

Story of the Fest

Let’s just jump straight into the story behind the fest, how did the fic fest come about? 

Let’s start with Mod Rose, representing Ultimate Top Kim Jongin in this episode. So dear Rose, what is the story behind the fest? Were there any specific moments during your fic reading days where you decided that, yes this fest must come alive?

In 2017, Top Jongin was a rarity. 2017 was when I officially entered the EXO ficdom, at the time Top Jongin authors and fics were becoming less and less. Soon I discovered fests and one Bottom Kyungsoo fest was posting at the moment. It had some amazing kaisoo fics with some of the best Top Jongin characterization i have seen and it got me thirstier for more Top Jongin.

i decided to make UTKJI fest then for more Top Jongin content! If the mods are by any chance hearing this thanks for the inspiration and for all the support that helped kick our fest successfully! and with that we had our first round in 2019! 

That is very encouraging actually. You took matters into your own hands. You wanted something for yourself. You wanted more Top Jongin in a ficdom that at the time had more Bottom Jongin. You bridged the gap of not having enough Top Jongin by being the moderator of this Ultimate Top Kim Jongin fic fest as a solution for this thirst that you had. Doing something for yourself, and it seems evident until now that readers and viewers are very supportive, which shows actually that the work you do, is in service to the Top Jongin community. 

What kept the fest going was the amazing support from all followers: authors, artists, prompters and readers. We made ourselves a lovely community and it's always nice to come back despite some of the hardships that come with running a fest!

Thank you Mod Rose for sharing the origin story of the Ultimate Top Kim Jongin fest. 

Hearing from Ultimate, I'm eager to know the story behind Nini Planet! 

How did you and your team get together, the story behind Nini Planet! What was the starting point or motivation behind curating so diligently the Bottom Nini Fest? 

Mod Nini: We felt the same regarding bottom Jongin. Honestly, we cannot prove or disapprove any of our claims, but when we began reading fics at different points of time, we were introduced to top kai first. Both of us. However, we soon realized we wanted different things. Mod Gominie joined the fandom first, so she was well-versed with bottom Jongin by the time I joined the ficdom. In a way, she introduced me to the world of bottom Jongin, and I was eager to be a part of it. We came across many bottom Jongin writers and readers who had similar stories. It was after that that we decided to create this fest, to make sure we each have a platform to share what we have wanted to in all these years. 

Prompts

One of the biggest differences that sets the two fests apart is not just the nature of Jongin in ships, but also the fact that Nini Planet generally have set guided prompts and Ultimate Top takes in prompt suggestions from readers.

In 2022, Nini Planet according to your archives it is reflected that you had challenges every month. Specifically for 2022, it seemed like a busy year for you, talk us through the process. 

Firstly, when do you decide what type of challenge to do for the month?

Mod Gominie: For our monthly rounds, we decide the theme of our challenges near the end of each month, where we look through the theme suggestions provided by our creators and followers. For some of our longer rounds, we asked the participants to create their stories based on Jongin’s albums. They can take inspiration from lyrics, MV, or Film: Kai.This is either to celebrate Jongin’s birthday or him releasing a new album. We also do special rounds where there’s no theme restriction and creators are free to choose whichever theme they prefer.

It is very comforting to know that Nini Planet looks to their creators and followers in the ficdom. It is important to tap into the ideas of the people who are already in the community to garner support and gain strength.

From there, how do you choose and streamline the type of prompts found in the monthly challenge? 

Mod Gominie: For each round, we have a set time–usually one week starting from the second day of sign-ups–to post prompt suggestions from ourselves and our followers. We only choose the prompts that relate to our theme for the month.

For the sake of those who are not familiar with your monthly challenges, could you give us a brief run through on the variety of it from the summer au, youtuber au, collage au. Feel free to talk about as much or as little as you like. You can list the monthly challenges as well. 

Mod Gominie: As previously mentioned, we mostly choose the themes from the suggestions submitted by our joiners and followers. This is done near the end of every month. We aim to try out as many themes as we can, whether it’s popular ones like royalty and omegaverse, or less popular ones like YouTube AU and cottagecore. I feel that this is a nice challenge for our writers and artists, especially if they’ve never created something based on these themes before.

And with 2022 being the peak of you constantly engaging with the fest, how different is round 29 from all other monthly challenges?

Mod Gominie: I wouldn’t say our current round (round 29) is much different from our other monthly challenges, as we still provided a theme for our joiners to follow. The only difference is the duration. I believe it’s one of our longest rounds up to date.

Would the longer duration for round 29 be because of Jongin’s military discharge? 

Mod Gominie: Yes, we prepared round 29 to celebrate Jongin’s return. We noticed a decline in the number of joiners in 2023, and we felt that Jongin’s absence might be one of the reasons. My co-mod and I have gotten busier with our jobs since then, so we decided to take a hiatus last year and tried to keep our fest active by doing two longer rounds. As mentioned in our announcement before the hiatus, we are planning to officially come back after Jongin’s military discharge.

Talking about prompts, now a question for Mod Rose: for the previous three rounds of Ultimate, when do you decide when to open for prompts? 

It honestly depends on when I have time and motivation to start a new round. Once the round’s schedule is decided, we share it with the followers. usually that starts a wave of excitement for the fest and make sure to open Prompting as soon as possible while everyone is in the spirit to share their amazing ideas!

I agree, time and motivation is usually the first push you need to ever start on something. I notice based on your archive that there were actually thematic prompts like Christmas special, New Years special, Jongin’s birthday. So what makes the general round different from the special ones?

Our fest is mainly a general fest, we do main rounds that take months and we focus on making lengthy fics that can have any trope or theme.

The special rounds were just bonus rounds after the main ones or during them, for people who couldn't join the main rounds or for people who were still hyped up by the main round and wanted to do more. Also since we typically do one round every year, it's a lot of waiting so the bonus rounds are like little snacks for our dearest followers until we can do a new one!

I see, the thematic prompts are special bonus rounds. Love that for us, keeping us on our toes and gives us something to enjoy. 

And as Nini Planet is known to have thematic prompts, what do you think is the biggest challenge when having to come up with prompts?

Mod Gominie: Definitely sticking to the theme, especially ones that aren’t as popular, like cottagecore. It’s a challenge for us to come up with prompts based on rarer themes but we do our best to give our potential joiners some inspiration.

What I love and I deeply appreciate from your themes Nini Planet, is the creative exploration. Writers when there is a goal to work towards, it is exciting. It is of course a fun challenge to see how writers can really make the prompts their own, adding their own creative flare to it.

Mod Gominie: I agree. That’s part of what makes it so exciting and fun to read over their submissions. As both of us are writers and readers, it is a way of indulging our souls into something new and different. We hope our joiners and readers feel the same way when they go through each other’s works. 

As we are talking about prompts, do you have any where you wrecked your brain really hard for but no one took that up? Or a prompt that you wanted to see but it didn't come to life?

Mod Gominie: Yes, there have been, and sometimes we do hope on certain ones. Then again, they are simply there as an inspiration for our potential joiners. In the end, we really enjoyed seeing how our writers and artists worked with the different themes and the amazing fics/fanarts that came out of it. Though sometimes it can be hard to come up with prompts, especially for less popular themes, I think both of us enjoy doing it anyway.

How about you, Mod Rose? From your archive did you have any personal favorites from the prompts itself that you were sad it did not come to life as well?

All of them.

Check-ins and deadlines

We were talking about prompts, now let’s move on to planning for check-ins and deadlines.

Maybe let’s look at thematic prompts first? For time sensitive prompts like Valentine’s Day and New Years and Birthdays, this question is for both of you, how strict are you with deadlines with the authors if or not at all?

Maybe we can have Mod Rose to share for Ultimate first?

So having a special round means we have a much more rigid schedule to post the fics. it's something I am worried about for this round for example because we wish to post during Jongin's long awaited comeback. but we know how life is and how hard writing can get, and I am sure drawing too. so we try our best to give as much as possible extensions and honestly our participants are mostly so good at keeping up with it!

for normal rounds we might extend it another month if that's what the majority need. We know some pressure is good for motivation but too much might ruin their creativity.

We are very excited for Jongin’s long awaited comeback indeed. Of course, it is always a juggle to find that balance of pushing the artist and writers and sticking to the appropriate deadline. 

And how about you Nini Planet , how are things run on the Planet?

Mod Gominie: Just like other themes, we try to be flexible with deadlines for time sensitive themes as well. Life happens, and we would rather have creators feel excited about participating than stressed about submitting on time. If a creator needs an extension, we encourage them to submit their work three days after the deadline. In general, we lean towards a “soft deadline” approach, having an exact date but letting joiners know it’s okay if they wish to drop out or need more time.

Soft deadline approach, that gives the writers a checkpoint in a way. Realistic and supportive.

And for prompts, Nini Planet, what is your time frame like?

Mod Gominie: Our time frame is slightly different depending on the duration of our rounds. For our monthly rounds, we have the first week of the month for sign-ups, the second and third week for creating, and the final week for posting/guess who/reveals. For rounds that are two or three months long, we still have the first week for sign-ups.

I see, it depends on the duration of the rounds. That’s very practical.

What about for Ultimate, you are more or less free and easy with the prompts, but there of course must be some deadlines for authors to meet. How do you gauge planning for the overall timeline? 

We tried long rounds like 6 months and shorter ones like one month and we found the sweet spot is something more in the middle. 4 months is for most people the best, a month to kick off the fest, gather prompts and sign up, two and a half for the writing/drawing with a check in in the middle and around two weeks for final submissions and extensions. it's not too long that participants lose interest in their work and not too short that's impossible to finish on time.

Knowing when the sweet spot is, it reflects just how long you've been at this and how you have grown with it too. 

Vetting Content

I am aware there are guidelines and rules to abide by specifically for Nini Planet. Could you talk a bit about that? What are strictly banned tags and characters that are refrained from being used?

Mod Nini: The most necessary ones like non-con, bestiality, pedophilia, and incest are strictly banned. Any fic containing these content, whether in the characters’ past, present, or future, is immediately rejected by us. Tags like dub-con, when properly explained, are accepted; character death or violence require appropriate warnings, the same as dub-con. If the warnings or tags are not properly marked, we inform the writer or reject the story altogether. We allow Jongin pairings outside EXO fandom, however, pairings such as kriskai and lukai are strictly banned, whether as the main, side, or past pairing. They are not allowed to be mentioned in the stories either. 

I understand, it is important to set boundaries and rules.

And for Ultimate, how is your moderation like, if any?

well we do have hard rules against non con and pedophilia for example, bestiality etc. those are stated in every round. the fic should be Jongin centered, he cant just be a secondary character and obviously only Top Jongin is accepted (or what's the point of the fest you know) but mostly we are open to everything as long as it is not harmful or any of the mentioned above. and writers have to be careful and responsible with their tagging.

With these rules laid out, encouraged guides for authors to follow, for the both of you, how do you vett fics? 

We can have Nini Planet share their ways first: 

Mod Nini: Either one of us has to go through the story at least once before accepting it. Sometimes, because of lack of time, we only have time enough to skim through the stories, the characters, the plots, and the tags. If we find anything objectionable, we immediately contact the writer through whatever medium they have shared with us. Until we get confirmation or the writer makes the necessary changes, we do not accept the story. 

And how similar or different are the workings in Ultimate?

Pretty similar to Nini Planet actually. Well, checking fics before posting is honestly my least favorite part of the fest for no other reason than it's me spoiling all the fics, I awaited for months for myself, by having to check all of them in a short time span lmao

but yeah i go over them and check and read before posting. If there is any problem we contact the author and talk about it. if the fic breaks one of the hard rules it's instantly rejected. we don't contact them or anything. That thankfully happened only one time, where it was a very traumatizing experience tbh, the fic was literally non con and it was rejected.

and yeah some regular authors have our trust, we merely skim over their work and we know they are very responsible! 

Oh dear… non con is scary… thank you for rejecting that fic, it would have been traumatising for readers… but you unfortunately had to go through that for us. And we thank you for your service.

Ending Ment

This is actually the end of the first of two episodes for the month.

We started this episode with the story behind the fic fests, the two different types of prompts the two fic fests have. Their different ways on how Nini Planet mods support writers in giving guided prompts and Ultimate Top Kim Jongin pushes for deadlines, enough for excitement from readers and passion for their creative freedom by writers. How these two fests vett through the fics, be it skimming though and spoiling themselves for the fics they were most excited for.

Now mods, let’s take a pause here before diving into the creative aspects and promotions of the fests and support from writers and readers alike. Second part will be uploaded on the 14th! 

To reach me I am kaisooficdrunk on twitter, and if you want you can drop me questions on my neospring with the same username.

[askredmedic]

MEDIC!

“Come in, take a seat! I hear you had some questions for me?”

Welcome to the blog! This has been edited to be more of an intro post, but to also cover some boundaries on these ask blogs.

All blogs run by this account adhere to both pieces of canon lore and extended content made by the creator.

That being said, not all blogs in the group will! When in doubt, check their introductions.

RULES:

If your blog hosts explicit NSFW content, especially untagged, we’d prefer you don’t follow us.

While we deal with some heavy topics, being a TF2 based blog; our blog is not comfortable with nsfw/18+ themes and we’d like to make that distinction rather clear.

We especially need to say this with the knowledge that there are a lot of people thirsty over the mercs. Keep in mind that there are human beings behind these blogs, and therefore we ask that you treat us like you would irl.

Otherwise, as long as you’re respectful to the mods, go ape with asks! We don’t tend to do long form magic anons, but if you have an idea, go for it!

EXTRA NOTES:

Our blog follows and runs under slightly altered but canon-based lore.

If you’d like to know more about the Mountain Base lore and be kept up to date on mercenary and asker findings, the official document(s) will be listed in a reblog.

If you see someone chatting in different colors on this blog, it often means they’re a different character! #Not your Scout is the BLU Rover Scout, and #Not your Medic is the RED Rover Medic!

Posts and interactions to blogs that aren’t within the canon or that are unrelated will be tagged with #Not your canon.

We don’t tend to interact as much with random roleplay prompts, due to experiences in the past. If you’d like to do a more serious interaction, just dm us! We’d be happy to do one with you!

INTERCONNECTED BLOGS:

@thecozycamper - A new Sniper on base! What happened to the old one, and how will he fare on this experimental base setup? He’s adjusting, but he’ll have to adjust a lot quicker for what’s to come. (Interacts with canon and non-lore canon blogs, tagged accordingly!)

@rengineer - An extra RED Engineer brought in to help maintain base functions and battles, as Rusty the in-house Engineer is less familiar with the respawn systems. (Interacts with canon and non-lore canon blogs, tagged accordingly!)

RUN BY THE HOST:

@askredmedic - You are here!

@thenewscout - Previously the newest mercenary on the team, and still the newest in terms of experience. He’s doing his best, okay?

@askredspy - He didn’t want to make a blog, but now he has a blog. Ask him questions, but don’t always expect a straight answer.

@askredengineer - Rusty wasn’t brought up into the life of a Mercenary, but he was called to action by Miss Pauling eventually. He occasionally helps Medic with experiments and is a lot smarter than he lets on, he’s just a bit shy at times.

Thanks to innovations by his hand, he’s developed mobile mini-sentries. They were banned from the battlefield until he made them smaller.

@askspybot - Medic’s experiment that led to the creation of the mobile respawn mechanism seen in MVM. (Within this universe, TF2 and MVM kind of take place parallel to each other.)

Time: 3:57, Friday night, two hours before dawn.

Simon approached the bed very slowly, stopping when Fulbright moved, watching his friend pull himself into a tight ball.

"Fulbright?"

"Go away!"

"Please, Fulbright. Speak with me."

"Go!"

There was silence for a time, and Simon kept his distance, but did not leave. After a long pause, he spoke again....

"Do you know where you are?"

There was a sniffle, and a quiet murming in response.

"It's your room. Yours, no one else's."

"there was someone else here, I didn't..."

"they are a friend. Invited to visit, stay the night. Leave in the morning."

"........I..."

Fulbright trailed off, and Simon squinted into the dark towards him, unsure how to proceed.

"....if...if im really home, where's....."

"I'm here."

"Where's Rover?"

Simon tried to ignore his bruised ego at that, and moved lightly to the door, responding as he did,

"I'll fetch him"

It appears that 'Burnie" had been listening in, as when Simon entered the living room, Burnie was already opening Rovers crate, where the dog, unsure what was happening but very aware of the tension in the home, was pawing at the wire door, whimpering. Simon tried whistling for the dog, but was ignored as Rover, now free, barreled into his Masters chamber, leaping onto the bed and setting about comforting Fulbright the only way he knew how.

Simon followed, but stayed near the door, watching as Fulbright was besieged by man's best friend. He stayed there for some time, until Fulbright called out to him-"

"Oh, Sir, I really am home."

(we are back! Or trying to be, anyway. Will keep you posted, send asks! We're almost done with this event and will hopefully be back to normalcy soon!)

Seeding Round: Poll 4

Image ID included, click to see the full image please!

(The images submitted are of option 1, Duurhnaviig, and option 3, Khorush the Destroyer)

More about each NPC below the cut!

Character Descriptions are in the order of their appearance in the poll!

Character 1

Name: Duurhnaviig Party: Face Smasherz Relationship to party: Party member's family member/king of realm that party member works in (Homebrew)

What makes them the best NPC: Duurhnaviig is a loud, raucous, strong, passionate character, who takes his job as a king very seriously. He honors his people and makes sure that the needs of his kingdom are met before anything else. Though Duurhnaviig is not opposed to war, coming from lands torn by war, he moved to peaceful lands to get his people out of war, so he tries and avoids it as much as possible.

Though he is not always the most intelligent character, often times mistaking social cues, he's got a heart of gold and wants the best for his people and anyone in his lands. At least those that don't intend to cause harm to the former. Duurhnaviig is happy to assist where he can, so long as it doesn't take away from his kingdom and rewards help generously.

Duurhnaviig can be known to be overzealous sometimes, and will make decisions that could be disagreeable to others if he believes it to benefit his people.

Quote: "Should the path to my people's salvation make me hell bound, then I will gladly descend."

"I am the Red Tide, Tagavor of these realms, and dealer of your judgement. You may pray to your god, but in these lands, only I will hear you."

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _

Character 2

Name: The Bread Guy Party: The guys Relationship to party: Shop keep in Everwinter

What makes them the best NPC: The sell the best bread in town. Pumpernickle, white, pumpkin, raisin, all the bread. Best bread in town.

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _

Character 3

Name: Khorush the Destroyer, Speaker-to-Animals Party: Jax's Rovers (Rovers system) Relationship to party: Hired mercenary & ship's chef

What makes them the best NPC: Khorush is a massive 8-legged, 4-eyed alien creature with thick fur known as a "spider-bear". Can stand from all eight legs to just the two hind ones, measuring ~12ft tall when stood on four. Feet not being used for standing are prehensile and can pick up objects, etc. He also wears a minimal amount of Iron Age style armor, and travels with a 7ft greatsword and an iron frying pan. Human is a favored delicacy among his species. Our space rovers originally encountered him while visiting cold, snow-covered planet. After our alien member convinced him not to eat the rest of our crew, ze ended up hiring him as part the group. In addition to being a formidable warrior and a cultural ambassador he also prides himself on being an excellent cook, and is knowledgeable of many cuisines across the galaxy. When our rovers team was stationed at the imperial base Khorush spent the entire time impressing the kitchen chefs with his culinary talents.

Here's two observations on modding Animal Crossing New Horizons:

Mods that add villagers instead of replacing them are rare.

A lot of mods are inherently incompatible.

#2 is because there's no way to replace only part of a file. Though ACNH in some sense uses YAML and CSV, it's actually BYAML and BCSV. These files are full of internal pointers and stuff. So when you have a mod that replaces a certain value in a certain CSV file, it has to replace that file entirely. Which means when two different mods act on the same files, only one will win.

(I just realized while going over this post before submitting that the binary nature of these files makes no difference, it just makes editing them harder.)

#1 though? Here's two mods you can find on GameBanana. There's "Spider Villagers" by CutieSammy, which consists of four sub-mods that each replace a specific squirrel. But it also includes a replacement for the US English strings file, to change those squirrels' names to the spiders', so if any other mod affects the strings file, either the spiders' names are undone, or the other mod is.

And then there's "Reaction Cat Custom Villager" by catcraze777 and LeSaltzBoi. Reaction Cat doesn't replace anyone -- it's a completely new villager, internal ID cat25. For reference, there are 23 cats in the game (not counting Rover), from cat00 (Bob) to cat23 (Raymond). cat22 would've been Felyne but he's not in the game. And Reaction Cat is cat25.

Here's what the mod includes to make that work:

photo item, one archive per custom frame

poster item

map icon

model and textures

And all that is fine. That and the strings file are about all you'd need for the spiders, and those only have models/textures and map icons! But!

normal NPC parameter BCSV

item parameter BCSV

system messages (archive full of separate string maps)

strings (similar, but specifically contains NPC names among others)

static parameters (archive full of BYAML files, including NPC room layout data and such)

Not one of those is gonna work well combined with other mods.

And then there's "Chocolate-Dipped Isabelle", by mswheatley and inspired by @pankendev's art. Chocobelle works perfectly well with anything that doesn't also affect Isabelle in some way because though it contains the same stuff as the spider villagers, it doesn't replace any strings. If mswheatley could get away with only including textures, they probably would've but unfortunately the model and textures are a package deal.
