I haven't seen anything too bad, but it happens in every fandom sadly. I hope people learn to finally respect boundaries set by creators, you know?

I hate having to say this, but SPG fans are the most disrespectful, chronically online people I’ve ever met. A huge majority of fans don’t respect the band members or their boundaries, there’s recently been a spike of people posting and gawking over vintage rabbit (aka pre transition bunny) and it feels like any time someone wants to post about a different band member they like or find attractive, it’s buried by The Spine’s dick riders. Not to say that any of these people are bad people, but it’s down right tiring watching people speak over the band. Like personally, The Jon is my favorite character, but when people start pestering the band about why he left when the band has explained it plenty of times or talking about certain previous members who were messing around with minors, it just feels insanely disrespectful. I’ve even seen minors drawing suggestive/nsfw works of the characters on main tags, along with generally sexualizing the band members who have explicitly stated they are uncomfortable with.

I’d like to keep posting about SPG bc it’s really one of my favorite bands and I love the characters and their stories, and I have a good portion of OCs for it I’m really proud of, but having to interact with fans is extremely uncomfortable. I’m really only in the Discord server for updates and occasionally posting art.

Might get dogpiled for this, but I think it’s important to address, because the members of SPG aren’t mainstream celebrities, they are a theatre act, and this is something they’re passionate about, and it’s honestly sad watching people walk all over them.

MECHANISMS REF IMAGE MASTERPOST

Okay, so I put together refs for each of the mechs as best I can. I tried to avoid anything in a show lighting, but sometimes it can't be helped. Notes will be underneath each section

Whole cast

Ivy is the only character leaning on the wall in the second image, but is roughly as tall as Ashes

Jonny D'Ville

Jonny in earlier shows like TTBT wears a black shirt underneath instead of the white. He occasionally has red or black painted nails and his goggles are either black or bronze. He has a black 7 of diamonds. He often holds a mic - which is a Shure Super 55

Drumbot Brian

He usually has just the flower in his hat, but sometimes it's replaced with RAM or his drumsticks. His goggle has a very small crack at the base. The rings seem to be a bit of a motherboard and screws? The visible heart is something I can only find in one picture, but it's cool

Gunpowder Tim

Sometimes wears jeans instead of dark brown trousers. His eye scars are more geometric than Jonny's, and he has dark eye shadow around the eyes where Jonny uses just eyeliner

Raphaella la Cognizi

The top is three layers: a white/cream shirt, a brown puffy shirt and a a top layer which has a halter neck. Occasionally one or both of the undershirts won't be worn (see HNOC liveshow). Tights can be blue or black. Light up wings from DTTM

The leggings/tights are sometimes black and sometimes deep blue

Ivy Alexandria

A few different outfits, in liveshows they're also wearing some outfits not shown here - but always black and red with a waistcoat of some kind.

Nastya Rasputina

The necklace is a little cat :3

Marius von Raum

Kneepads in DTTM. The cards are a jack and ace of hearts. Necktie either has a white or gold pattern on it, but they don't always wear it. The green jacket has a tailcoat

The Toy Soldier

Hair varies a lot. Sometimes it's worn down, in a ponytail or hidden under the hat. Sometimes nails are painted red or black

Ashes O'Reilly

In live shows they often wear this eyeliner which has thick bars that go behind the ears - but I couldn't find any clear pictures of this. Though their outfits changes, always mostly black with some red in the hair

Dr Carmilla post can be found here

I hope this was in some way helpful to anyone who wants to draw the mechanisms. If you have questions feel free to ask me in the ask box and I will do my best to answer them and provide some photos <3 have a great day

Jon is my comfort drawing :7

[callofspooky]

jonathan sims is so funny as a protagonist bc he acts and talks like the tortured mc of a 19th century gothic horror novel while everyone else around him just talks like a regular person. extra funny because they all make fun of him for it and it still doesn't stop him.

Please tell me in the tags who's in the pfps and what you picked! If it's the same person/character think of one as a clone. What would they do to themselves?

Hey guys, just putting out a PSA because now that's THREE people I know of who've got these identical messages on Discord last night alone.

If a friend messages you apologising because someone "with a similar username to you" tried to deceive them so they reported your account as hacked, and sends an image of a discord email, your friend is the one who has been hacked.

It's hard to read in the screenshot (sorry!) but it looks like the "advice" is something like "file a friend request with our CORPORATE HEAD OF SECURITY to open your case. You have 12 hours to do so or we might suspend your account."

I've been told that if you do contact that user, they try to get you to "prove" you own the account by making a "100% refundable transaction" to them. Which is so scummy.

Scammers catch people out by imposing a time limit and dramatic consequences of not acting fast enough. In that moment of panic, you might not figure out it's suspicious, especially when the email looks so real (it will have your screen-name in it to make it seem legit, but the request code will likely be identical to the one in this post, #40557035) and you're worried about both an impersonator AND losing your account.

If you get sent the above message, try to let your friend know through other ways (socials, etc) that they've been hacked. If you are ever worried, your best bet is to check Discord's website and ask for help through their support page, which has a section for hacked accounts.

People know that the whole "don't portray [harmful action] because viewers might recreate it" thing is a rule for children's shows right? It's supposed to be shit like "don't show peppa pig playing with fire so we don't get sued if a kid watches it and burns their house down." Not like, fanfiction for adults.

"I hope they dont make more supernatural its just gonna be bad!" wrong! give me supernatural 2.0 and its just 15 seasons of destiel living a domestic life with two kids, a cat, a dog and a bee farm.
