In the middle of exams so here are just some higher quality versions of my last sketches!

(There will be no context for Menelaus dressed as a seal and Helen doing drugs. If you know, you know.)

[sunberies]

Lowkey forgot the context of which I drew this, something something Poppy takes Rosie after the twt fight??? I’ll probably make another post about that, I’ve got some ideas

Close up ⬇️

Ok bye bye

Doodled my faves one night while listening to black hole sun haha🦭

You mentioned Branch is a lot more u in the AU he went with JD & Jade

Will this sweep Poppy off her feet perchance? 👀

To me Branch is always the one who falls first in every universe, their friendship and his crush would start in movie one and he’d be hardcore flirting and she just doesn’t notice because of everything going on

They would meet around the time OG Branch would’ve come to rescue her

At some point I'll clean these up and line them but I've been having entire arm issues so we got sketches rn

Things aren't all cupcakes and rainbows with the two of them, even with Branch not being gray he still harbors some worry and sadness which would end up being a point of conflict

Not shown to great extent here but his inability to see "the silver lining" would become a moment of conflict for them in place of singing killed my grandma

Also what Lief is doing during all of that:

He gets sent back to trolls village to help them hide from the Bergens while Poppy is away!

Apostle of Destruction Jeanne is causing quite a stir at this year's GR⚡️D GALA!

Don't call her Mahoro unless you want her to come after you with her sword.

(crossposted on twitter here)

Keep on reading to see my design inspirations for this year's gala and closeup shots of the details (Abaranger spoilers ahead!):

The main inspiration for this year's fit come from two designers/collections:

Hassidriss's Burning Shadows A/W 2019 Collection for the dress

Miss Sohee's S/S 2025 Collection for the puffy sleeves and long train!

I went through a few different design concepts when brainstorming for Mahoro's outfit. Initially I wanted to do something on the bridal end, but eventually I ended up with something more demonic. Given what happens with Mahoro in Abaranger, I thought the fallen angel/hellfire vibe was appropriate.

Fire is obviously a huuuge part of this design. I wanted to really emphasize the destructive, all-consuming nature of it-- This fire doesn't just burn bright and hot, it reduces everything around it to soot and ash. That image of Mahoro in the Abaranger opening surrounded by flames lived rent free in my head:

Anyway, on to the details!

Starting with the bottom half of the design: Fire, fire, fire! I used red, orange, and yellow beads for the flames on the dress. The train has a darker red to black ombre to show the soot that comes with burning, with a red bead lining at the bottom and red and black beads scattered to look like floating ash particles.

There's a lot going on with the top half here:

I wanted to pay homage to Jeanne's original design, so I took inspiration from her corset-laced cutout pants and put them here as waist cut-outs. I also made the neck wrap in an X/cross shape since that's very prominent in her original outfit

Speaking of the neck/arm wrap thing, that was originally meant to be green as a reference to Dezumozorlya (and his awful vines, eurgh), but the colors clashed too much. Still, I wanted a reference to his vines, and to suggest that Jeanne was being bound and constrained by an outside source.

Coincidentally, changing the neck/arm wrap to black and gold means that it's also colored in Asuka's color scheme :)

Dezumozorlya's brainwashing mark thing was made into a gold beaded accent

Pointy sharp earring because she's a pointy sharp character. The design is supposed to resemble black sludge oozing over a yellow crystal, because corruption/fallen angel vibes

Lastly, I gave her these green beading details at the wrist ends of both sleeves, mostly because I love AsuMaho and wanted to incorporate the promise bracelet somehow :)

Anyway, that's it! idk how to end this so uhhhh. If you made it all the way to the end, I hope you liked my little write up. I'm very normal about Mahoro and Asuka. If you haven't watched Abaranger, do so at your own risk <3

'Ello 'ello. I'm the mod! @tekeruthechaotictrap I made this blog for two reasons:

1. Me and my friends have been coming up with Limbus Self-Inserts and we thought it'd be fun.

2. I have seen so so many cool Project Moon rp blogs I got a bit inspired.

Most of all, what I wanna do with this is have some lighthearted fun RPs... and just like all project moon things, for it to end in crushing angst. Let's all have fun!

[vodkaslyme]

I'm glad Fields of Mistria is at least a little more lenient with how you gain relationship w characters than Stardew was, bc as much as I love March as a character something I don't love about these kinds of games is the way their arcs/behaviour doesn't progress at all unless you're actively giving them gifts and talking to them every day (neither of which March deserves at all btw). Just rubs me the wrong way that the solution to jerk characters in these games is always to placate and rehab thier behaviour instead of the narrative/your accomplishments working towards that instead.

Idk. I think a lot of ppl have no problem kissing up to tsundere types in games but I'm like entirely too autistic and too "it's the principle of the matter" to be able to? If March is supposed to develop from being antagonistic and rude then it feels shitty that it comes from undeserved, infinite olive-branches and not just the natural progression of time/story? So at least I can mostly ignore him, tho as a consequence it takes fucking ages to increase his hearts passively that way. You can rebuff and scold him in the 2 heart event and I hope they carry that "I'm not taking your stupid ass bullshit, March" energy for the future hearts too. Because I'm out here infrastructure/farm-maxing, I'll spoil him w conversation and gifts when he figures his shit out on his own lol and we get on neutral ground.

Also I just generally don't like how abrupt his change towards you is on Friday nights. I get it's supposed to be comedic but when he's randomly only nice to you when he's drunk, and he's the only character who's Friday night interactions don't seem to have any bearing on his disposition or dialogue with you after (yet everyone else references their Friday night interactions w you and each other) it makes it feel almost non-canonical as opposed to a hidden quirk of his.

Also idk, "only nice when drunk" isnt the incentive to befriend him the devs think it is lol

[sunberies]

Baby Babbles

Ok a happier post! :3

After Branch sings to Rosie, SHE starts to sing, and BOY does she sing

She starts singing in the middle of the night too, can’t stop her

Branch loves it though, he won’t stop her from singing just cause he’s not singing

Though he only lets her sing in the bunker, not outside, too dangerous

[spittyfishy]

If the Pokemon world had their own "Remnants of Despair", who do you think would be in it. (Junko somehow made a portal there or something.)

Buckle up fellas this is gonna be a long one

Ooo okay that’s a super interesting thing to think about! There’s a lot of things to consider when picking remnants in this sort of context (fighting tooth and nail against the instinct to just bonk my favs with the villain au bat but I shall resist!)

I think it’s important take how the Pokémon world works into account, like having Junko just physically torture someone into despair (think Chisa) wouldn’t fly, Pokémon’s ratings as a franchised wouldn’t allow it. So I’ve only picked characters who already had something that Junko could pull on to manipulate them into despair. I also tried to get at least one person from every region! I'm not 100% certain about some of these, so I’d definitely love to hear other people’s thoughts! (And let’s see if anyone can guess which character I had the most thoughts for lol)

Kanto:

Chloe: I think I’ve talked about Chloe’s villain au potential before, but at least during the early part of the Journeys anime she fairly closed off and distant, her dad paid more attention to Goh and Ash then to her, and there were loads of instances where he put his Pokémon work above her needs and family plans.

Jessibelle: Listen, Jessie and James are too whimsical for something like this but Jessibelle was already a physically abusive gold digger lol so I’m sure Junko would have something to work with there.

Johto:

Silver: Not only is his dad a globally wanted criminal, but he also abandoned Silver when he went into hiding (I think that’s the backstory at least), and Silver has a lot of dialogue about treating Pokémon only as tools. If being a strong trainer didn’t get Giovanni’s attention, then maybe being a Remnant would.

Clair: Okay I’m going to be honest, I realized there weren’t enough girls on the list and threw Clair on last minute, but she also is super annoying in the Johto games lol. Like come on I won the battle just give me the badge!!

Hoenn:

Courtney: So in the Pokémon Masters phone game there’s a bit where Courtney is shown to really believe in the Team Magma cause and really hates Team Aqua even after everything had been resolved at the end of ORAS, so I think Junko could get her that way. Have Courtney convinced that it’s her duty to keep Team Magma’s ideals alive even if the rest of the team forgot them.

Sinnoh:

Cyrus: Cyrus failed. All that effort to create his perfect world, catching the lake spirits, scaling Mount Corinette, he got so close— Just to have it all come crashing down at the last moment. His life’s work destroyed by some kid! He already had little to no patience for humanity, so thanks to Junko’s influence fine, he’ll make this world so unbearable to live in that people will beg him to create his perfect world at last.

Saturn: Saturn will follow Cyrus anywhere, both Pokémon Masters and the Chronicles of Arceus movie showed that if the Commanders are put in a situation without Cyrus they will go to any lengths to get him back. Saturn's devotion runs deep, so if Cyrus says despair is the answer then that’s what it’ll be.

Unova:

Roxy: I’ve got nothing to justify this one with other then Junko wanted an Ibuki replacement to preform silly little despair concerts and I needed someone to rep Unova.

Kalos:

Sycamore: I’m not the first person to say Sycamore and Lysander were in love if not in a full blown relationship when everything went down in Kalos. But Lysander died, crushed under the weapon he’d risked everything to restore. The longer Sycamore goes without him the more he notices the flaws in humanity Lysander was talking about. People are selfish and greedy, look at the state of the world! Professors in Paldea nearly caused an ecological nightmare! The president of the Galar region Pokémon league almost plunged the world into eternal darkness! Not to mention what the morons over in Hoenn tried to do. If even people that were supposed to be trustworthy were causing this much chaos then there was no hope for the rest of humanity. If he could just get Lysander back, just see him one more time— tell him he’d been right, Sycamore was sorry for not seeing it sooner, that he missed him, and that if he could go back he’d have never given those kids the Pokémon that he was ultimately defeated by. If he could just get him back— if there was just some way— like if there was a big, giant, ancient machine that was capable of bringing back the dead still sitting in pieces in Geosenge Town…

Alola:

Faba: Is anyone really surprised? Faba is a little weasel of a man and will jump ship to whoever currently holds the most power. He could be a Branch Chief again! Or even better, if he does a good enough job maybe Junko will give him the whole Aether Foundation as a reward! (She won’t, but the possibility would always be held over his head to keep him in line)

Hau: Okay but hear me out— in the Ultra games specifically Hau has a few interactions with Guzma where he taunts him about being in his grandpa’s shadow and never being able to prove himself as a strong trainer. Gladion’s dialogue reinforces this, that Hau is always too busy goofing off and never takes anything seriously. If Hau’s just stuck there, his friends surpacing him, his rivals surpacing him, the mantle of Kahuna an unattainable goal constantly hovering over him, all those expectations and the realization he’s never going to meet any of them— it might become too much to deal with.

Galar:

Rose: He was only trying to help! Why couldn’t anyone see that? Galar needed Eternatus and the dynamax particles it could make, Rose had been saving the world! They were all so ungrateful, locking him in jail for saving them, who do they think they are? He made this region into what it is today! Everyone relies on Macro Cosmos, and he ran the entire Pokémon league on top of that! That Leon would be nothing without him! It was a region of ungrateful brats. But even so, he’ll still keep working to ‘help’ them all again, you’re welcome.

Oleana: *holds up photos of Oleana and of Peko* Corporate needs you to find the difference between these two pictures. They’re the same picture.

Raihan: He had to beat him. If he just trained harder, more sandstorms, bigger dragons, if he wanted it more. Leon couldn’t be invincible, he couldn’t be, and Raihan would prove it. Turn all of Galar to a battle ground if he needed, but he was going to take down that champion once and for all.

Paldea:

Kieran: Again, no one’s surprised. Just take BB league champion Kieran and turn him up to 11, and boom. Remnant Kieran. He’s still on a hunt for a legendary Pokémon, if he can just find one of those then he’ll be strong enough to defeat anyone right!

Bonus, all the Team Star bosses: I’m thinking they’d be like the equivalent of the Warriors of Hope, not really part of the Remnants group but still very much in despair. I mean come on, a group of bullied teens like that, Junko would have a field day.

And there we go! 15 Remnants plus five Warriors of Hope! I thoroughly enjoyed this ask, I know some of the concepts were much more fleshed out then others, I almost went with Misty and Brock for Kanto (his parents abandoned him to raise all his younger siblings while being the city gym leader, and Misty was so stuck in her sister's shadow she ran away from home) but I just couldn’t do that to two of my childhood faves. (Pierce and Gladion also almost made the list).
