𐙚 ‧₊˚ ⋅

 ‧₊˚౨ৎ started off posting unlisted videos of her playing games with the stupidest, shittiest editing ever for you and her friends to watch and later decided to give streaming a try

‎ ‧₊˚౨ৎ starts off her twitch channel as a faceless streamer but does a face reveal when she hits a big milestone

‧₊˚౨ৎ has the creeper mini fridge for sure!!

‧₊˚౨ৎ has a ginger cat named garfield that she exclusively calls garfunkel on stream because her viewers made fun of her for garfield being too unoriginal

“guys, what do you mean it’s unoriginal, look at him. that’s literally garfield, the real deal. you’re all haters.”

‧₊˚౨ৎ plays a bunch of different games: minecraft obviously, fortnite, roblox (and argues with kids on there, you can’t tell me any different). also loves fnaf, elder scrolls and resident evil

‧₊˚౨ৎ more on her liking resident evil, i think she’s not super wimpy when it comes to games like that but she HATES the regenerators from the re4 remake (i’m totally not projecting…)

“i am NOT a wimp, but look at their freaky fucking arms!! and they have gross little butts too, that was not a necessary choice for the character design.”

‧₊˚౨ৎ she does find it funny when she kills them and they jiggle as they fall on the ground though

 ‧₊˚౨ৎ i’m throwing it in here that she smokes weed because i simply cannot help myself teehee :P

 ‧₊˚౨ৎ she does more chill streams of her eating n stuff as a way of comforting her viewers so they can eat along with her )):

 ‧₊˚౨ৎ and in turn chat always spams her with comments to drink water because that girl survives purely on energy drinks to combat her sleepy girl syndrome

 ‧₊˚౨ৎ abuses the soundboard so heavily, loves using a sound effect of an audience clapping and cheering when she tells the most painfully unfunny joke

 ‧₊˚౨ৎ she is ABSOLUTELY a jerma985 fan

 ‧₊˚౨ৎ loves putting her fans on blast and reacting to edits of her on stream and finds it so funny (especially the ones that have the reverb fart noise just randomly slapped in there, she thinks it’s peak humour)

“you guys think i don’t see this stuff? i have eyes everywhere. y’know what though, you guys are actually really talented.”

 ‧₊˚౨ৎ wears stupid t-shirts that say stuff like “i paused my game to be here” (omg i just found one that says “gamers make better lovers, they know all the right buttons” she would absolutely wear that)

 ‧₊˚౨ৎ she wears her silly t-shirts with pride and has the audacity to ask chat to rate how hard her fit goes

therealher0brine: BOOOOOO 🍅🍅🍅 0/10

elliebellie69: i beg that you don’t leave the house in that /lh  (╥﹏╥)

gnarpgnarp500: never beating the loser lesbian allegations i fear…

“guys you’re just not seeing the vision, sorry that you’re not this cool.”

 ‧₊˚౨ৎ oh my gosh she is OBSESSED with the little ikea alien, she has multiple of them in her room. she keeps one on her desk and when she sometimes doesn’t know what to say she’ll just hold it up super close to the camera and make incoherent high pitched babbling sounds

smelliams420: omg cancelled you can’t say that dude…

 ‧₊˚౨ৎ gets her viewers to send in clips and she’ll do high try not to laugh streams and fails miserably because she has the dumbest sense of humour ever. she’ll blame it entirely on the herb though as if her reaction wouldn’t be near enough the same when she’s sober

‧₊˚౨ৎ will occasionally play guitar on stream and she’ll sing too if you catch her in the right mood. she’s a bit awkward about it so it doesn’t happen often cuz she hates messing up and always makes a way bigger deal about it than necessary

“fuck- no wait, i was just messing with you. that fuck up was on purpose, shut up,” and her cheeks are flushed bright red as she tries to brush it off and compose herself before trying again

 ‧₊˚౨ৎ loves to get sidetracked and info dumps about stuff she is far too knowledgeable on

 ‧₊˚౨ৎ in conclusion, loser ellie supremacy

a/n: raghhh i love streamer els with my whole heart !!! i’m gonna eat her (˶˃⤙˂˶) anyways i hope you enjoyed, k bye mwah! >3< ♡

quick n easy list of gentle coping mechanisms for bad mental health days / neurodivergent understimulation episodes!! some are more applicable to one or the other but when i'm feeling particularly like a tiger in a too-small enclosure i find doing at least a couple of these things helps me so much

drink water. basic, but annoyingly effective

eat a snack. same as above

stretch! even just some laying down stretches like pulling on your arms and knees (in fact, here's a great tiktok series for "depression stretches" and workouts/physical stimulation you can do laying down/without much movement)

music/podcasts/video essays. your favorite playlist you haven't listened to in a while, a podcast you like/have been meaning to start (i listen to podcasts while i'm drawing!)

draw/color! if you don't wanna draw, a coloring book is always fun. i actually prefer kids' ones.

read a book. i prefer physical books bc i know i'll get sucked back into the social media scrolling for hours if i try to read on my phone. i also recommend a nice tea/hot chocolate/juice with this one.

video games. this can be anything from minecraft to destiny 2, but i usually never give myself time for these, even when i have it (stuck in that phone scrolling). a more action-packed game for mental understimulation, maybe a more mellow one for a bad depression episode.

shower. i am fully aware this tends to take a lot of spoons but even just sitting under running water ALWAYS makes me feel better when i can manage it. it also helps me with adhd overstimulation!

clean/organize. this sounds counterintuitive but i actually do enjoy organizing stuff for understimulation, and cleaner workspaces help with the depression. even if it's something as simple as "put all the pencils on the desk back into the pencil cup."

puzzles/brain games. this one is almost exclusively for mental understimulation but once i get going it makes my depression SO MUCH BETTER, TOO. my niche is getting myself some algebra sheets but this can be anything from math to jigsaws to crosswords to word searches!! some kind of problem solving that engages your brain and requires focus. this one is my favorite because i find it really grounding.

playing an instrument. this is in the same vein as the last one! again, my personal niche is the piano, but this could be any sort of thing. in fact this could even be substituted for some kind of alt hobby all together, like knitting or crocheting or something! again, mostly for understimulation, but gives me the serotonin boost to get through the depression stuff as well.

this is all i have for my list, but i'd love for anyone to reblog and add their own stuff!!

shaw + sam gaming headcannons ( + their listeners )

☆ a/n: suggestive language , yt references + silent hill 2 & tlou 2 rm spoilers ! ☆

nothing crazy going on here js silliness tbh,,, tryna cook some things up,,,,

— you’d think milo & asher would be shit talkers but their mates are bigger. they go big they refuse to go home.

— asher introduced david to torture star video content and they are currently trying to beat nun massacre together

— milo definitely was a newgrounds kid growing up

— sam, being very dumb with new gen games, enjoys minecraft! he and darlin’ have a mansion in their survival world and he cherishes it dearly. he enjoys the creative aspect of the game

— david cried while playing silent hill, specifically silent hill 2. the leaving ending, where mary is talking as the credit rolls. david literally had tears in his eyes.

— milo and sweetheart play overcooked together and that’s when you hear the most shit talking they have ever shit to each-other.

— while angel plays minecraft, david massages their scalp while humming softly to the game bg music

— one time while playing twd: s4, milo told asher to pick louis and when he picked violet, he used the excuse ‘it’s for the plot.’

— asher definitely fucks over the gang over in every multiplayer game they play

— the listeners all play plenty of fps and babe gets the most competitive while angel is in the corner using their sound board playing the “bwomp” sound effect whenever babe bitches.

“angel. play that shit again and i’m gonna actually kill you.” “what?.”

bwomp.

“THATWASN’TEVENMETHISTIME.”

— sweetheart and babe definitely flirt a little when they get competitive with each-other to piss each-other off and or to throw one of them off. this confuses milo and asher severely

— darlin’ & sam r so doom + isabelle coded ( ill let you decide who’s who. ) ( darlin’ is isabelle. )

— angel and darlin’ play fortnite horror games

— darlin’ cried when joel died in tlou due to joel reminding them of sam

— the listeners play 8ball or crazy 8 with each-other in their gc together

— when david and asher were in highschool, they would fuck around in mw3 zombies together and vent to each-other at 3am, those deep ass talks

— milo’s the friend who sings when it gets quiet.

xtra.

“i got you a present!” babe coos to sweetheart, throwing a blooper their way in mario kart. sweetheart literally jumps out of their seat as their face turns as red as possible out of rage. with babe landing first, they giggle. “got something for me to since we are in the gift giving season , no?” to sweetheart. this causing the ball of soon fistfuls of anger to turn around. “yeah, it’s attached to me.” david spits out his drink as milo snaps his neck to the two as he sees sweetheart cracking their knuckles. “oh they meant it like that ok.” he hums to himself as he turns back to his phone. “OH NO THEY MEANT IT LIKE THAT.” milo realizes internally jumping up.

[pupstim]

the lil minecraft actions the ccs do are so important to me. When anyone of them crouches multiple times to show excitement, punching someone to show affection, walking into someone to hug them with sound effects, crouching and looking down to show sadness, running and jumping with excitement, slow drinking or eating food to show them enjoying it, all of that is SO important to me. i love them

#1076

As promised in #1074, a quick rundown.

Tags: @mrs-sharp @gothic-lottie @ladyofsappho @boxdstars

So today's morning, @phinik asked me if a hair from a person alive from ~15 years ago gets added to the Polyjuice potion, will you turn the person from their 15-years-ago self -- or into their modern self.

I said, yes, but it may not be that easy to conclude as it may seem.

I must warn, there're bodily horrors under the cut.

The books and the games don't explore or delve too deep into areas of magic otherwise dangerous. We know adding animal fur wouldn't turn you an animal, perhaps there's another potion recipe for that or for anyone willing to try, the animagus preparation ritual. But we're also given a hint: Polyjuice Potion alters your body fully.

Crouch JR hadn't a leg. Harry's sight improved; in DH, the Seven Potters needed glasses. MC engorged into Black, no problem there.

So theoretically speaking, we can conclude that a hair taken from a younger Moody should have the leg and the eye in place; Harry's sight will remain as is but everyone will shrink to his younger self's height. Black certainly had a few boils on the existence of which MC -- strangely -- doesn't comment any other way than lmaoing at him.

But then we went further. Every single case of drinking the potion involved physical alteration but was it really explored how the one's consciousness changes? Brain is an organ, too, the damage it has ever sustained may have lasting consequences. Will you be able to think or act as usual if you've turned into someone with dementia? epilepsy and schizophrenia double shot? And other conditions that affect brain or nerve development, or are results of a trauma. Just how will it feel when you've turned back into your regular self; not to mention cases of the radiation pollution, or rabies, or idk anthrax. Phinik suggested an idea outstanding in wickedness: what will be of a toddler gulped on a Polyjuice potion? A simple question turned into horrors beyond our comprehension.

It is therefore possible to die being turned into someone dying? or experience and not sustained a deadly condition, such as radiation? Will it be even possible to turn into a person dissolving alive; their hair may turn you into a sentient blob of bloody mass, will you survive it?

But if you're still alive, what will it be for the brain aka consciousness?

Is it what they study in the Department of Mysteries under the Mind alias? Wicked scenarios taken from sci-fi novels except it's something very real in their world and can happen to anyone?

Sickeningly frightening as it all sounds, this aligns with my greater theory for magic as an ability to stop the reality and take a snapshot of it, if you will; because magic is, strictly speaking, a manipulation on a body of Information pertaining to the objects of the universe.

Sources of information can't be reduplicated. Bodies of information are subjected to the entropy as over time parts of the bodies wither away or get lost in and through any kind of manipulation. Begiven a source, you can reduplicate its outputs, hence you can copypaste a dish full of food but not make food itself out of the thin air, or make new peapol by just spamming the Minecraft Steve magical button, or have no garden at all, and especially for potions ingredients, because you can't appear a plant, something living and ever-changing, out of nowhere.

You can't produce a seed but you'll need at least one to have a silo full of the same exact seed that will yield the same exact pumpkin; or you can have a silo full of different pumpkins and then just reduplicate the crop. It effectively solves the hunger problem although doesn't eliminates it wholly.

You will still require at least one seed that must produce a seedling and then grow a plant to have you a pumpkin. Which you then copy and paste to use; it also explains why the community garden is rather small, the one in Hogsmeade I mean, or why Hogwarts doesn't need a lot of livestock and game and gardens to feed its population.

I also came aware pumpkin seeds aren't stored in a silo but for this argument's sake, let's pretend they are. Also, what if you throw a pumpkin into the Polyjuice potion, will you b̴̳̿e̷̯͊c̸͎̋ò̶̧m̴͍͒ȅ̶͙ ̸̿ͅr̴̡͋ö̴̰́t̵̩̊?̶̞̽ ?

So to answer the initial question, it is possible to turn into a younger version of the same person, perhaps a still living one. But the hair can dissolve or otherwise lose crucial information about its wearer. The potion made out of such an unpredictable ingredient must be a luck.

my boyfriends minecraft autism is so bad he makes minecraft potion drinking sound effects when he drinks

[duckapus]

[a few days after the CCC Avatars and their games are taken, most of the characters relevant to the situation (notably all the Avatars except for the missing ones (obviously) and all the SMGs except 7 and 10 (for spoiler reasons)) are called to a meeting at 4's Meme Factory (since it's one of the few places that many people can meet comfortably) by Susie]

SMG3: Alright, why'd you call us all here?

Susie: I'm glad you asked *starts rummaging through a storage device* As you know, I've been studying code samples from the missing Avatars in the hopes of finding out the reason behind their memory suppression-and hopefully a cure for it-since before they were taken. And as it happens, a bit before I was informed of their capture I managed to synthesize this! *pulls out a large beaker of faintly glowing green liquid with lines of binary occasionally scrolling through it*

Several audience members: Oooooooooooo...

Mario: ...What is it?

Susie: This is a replica of the trojan program used to lock their memories, written is such a way that it can be represented as a liquid for ease of analysis. *she sets it on a table behind her* Most likely a similar method was used to administer their doses in the first place, possibly as some form of penetrating projectile designed to dissolve into their bloodstreams upon entry. AND, it just so happens to be completely identical to the code that made up the energy field generated by Lawyer Kong's so-called "firewall." Thus, the cure is obvious; Memes.

SMG6: But...we tried that already. It only worked for a few minutes, and only once.

Susie: That would be because of the one way the two afflictions differ; the firewall was an external source that people could be shielded from, while the trojan program is internal and needs to be overwhelmed and purged, and the latter will require a far more potent Meme than the former.

Which, unfortunately, is my current roadblock. See, if we make the memes too potent, they'll trigger a Meme Overload. That wouldn't have been a problem before they were captured-well, apart from Juliano given his condition, but still- but now they have to be administered while we're rescuing them from wherever they ended up, and we most likely won't have the time to bring them back down to manageable levels of insanity in the middle of that. So, we need to figure out the exact right dosage of Meme Energy that will cure them without making them go crazy.

Bob: ...Which means you need a test subject.

Susie: *nods* Now, in the interest of fairness I've put the names of everyone here who isn't an OC into a random number generator so-

???: *minecraft potion drinking sound* Mmm, kiwi flavor.

*everyone slowly turns with a comical creaking sound effect to see Franky holding the now-empty beaker*

Lily: We probably should've seen that coming.

Franky: *after a second or so there's the same audio and visual effect as when Mario got firewalled in the Lawsuit Arc, causing Franky to fall to his hands and lack-of-knees as the energy takes hold. His model slowly reverts to his old look as a generic Toad with glasses, and when the transformation is over he falls onto his face*

Desmond: FRANKY! *runs up to him and picks him up so he can see his face* Are you okay?

Franky: ...Who's Franky?

Everyone: *stares very intensely at Susie*

Susie: *weakly* ...Well...that's one way to choose I guess. *feels Peach, Toadsworth, Sage and Desmond suddenly looming ominously behind her* Right, let's go see about cooking up that cure, shall we? *grabs all the SMGs, Franky and Luigi and Books It deeper into the factory* Alright team, to the Meme Kitchen on the double!

[smartestgenius]

balance changes wishlist

willow's attack lands faster

darryl's super charges faster

he also needs better gadgets so bad

doug more range. just increase the radius a littttle bit

listen I don't mind brock's new hair but ik some people hate it so i think he should get the other model as a free skin kinda like hat mortis

kill animations/effects. yk how its just a flash and you're gone? it should be something cooler. plus if it lasts a bit longer so you have something interesting to look at while waiting to respawn

frank keeps his attack speed just like it is rn but he also makes less damage. he can't carry that big ass hammer with such little health!! he's weaker!! he's also DEAD!

report button on every end screen, not just ranked

and on that note: we need a middle finger pin. thumbs down is not enough to convey the rage some people make me feel

maybe dealing damage to allies would be okay sometimes too.

bring back angelo's 4800 dmg shot i can't keep getting my kills stolen

but the aim is smaller if the map is too open or he's moving too fast on water with that one star power (it gets very windy and can't shoot straight)

(lol)

spooky is a helium balloon so whenever gus hits an enemy with his bar full their voice lines should be higher. also allies who get it

if u have melodie in your battle card as favorite brawler you get a free kpop photocard mailed to your house. it's random tho you can't pick

if brawler with zombie skin gets damage minecraft zombie sound plays instead of whatever voiceline

hank's super now is like bonnie's. he exits the tank and is super tiny so he goes mostly undetected and can't take damage bc of his miniscule hitbox. his attack in this phase is 1 dmg and charges 1/10 of his super

if you survive mandy's super you get faster. bc sugar rush

if you use carl in that one gem grab map you can ride the minecart

game effects should be on the whole screen not just around the brwler. like if you get doug's hotdog a png fills your screen so you give enemies the opportunity to kill u again ^^

chester's "you're so big and strong" needs it own button

mega pig now doesn't give you anything other than ham points, which are only useful to trade for future-pig-brawler cosmetics

squid game event in which you and 99 other random players with the same green tracksuit skin play random gamemodes until the event ends. if you enter it you can't exit the game or you get banned

when max uses hypercharge the energy drinks she throws spill on the ground if allies don't catch them so you can choose between getting another speed buff or the chance to make an enemy trip and humilliate themselves for 20 dmg

idk feel free to add some

[youre-in-big-trouble]

Imagine: a sandbox survival game (think: Minecraft, stardew valley, breath of the wild, etc) with some sort of holding/bladder mechanic.

I've been binge playing Minecraft and can't think thinking about this

the real question is: would the holding mechanic be for the character you play as in the game, or YOU irl?

i could see either one being fun... having a meter for thirst, and everytime your character has a consumable, it'll go toward your bladder gauge... maybe it'll fill up faster when you go fishing or near bodies of water.

having to craft a toilet and a stall for it, but it occassionally has to be repaired - and the nightmare of being waaay too far into a dungeon to possibly make it back in time. especially if being Full made your movement-speed slower, or made it so you can only use one-handed weapons. ... because the other hand is... holding something else...

on the other hand, if we're talking about a game that challenges YOU... i could see drinking certain amounts of fluid giving you an advantage. maybe it could make your stamina bar refill, or heal you, or make your movement speed faster.

buuut, there would have to be punishments too. failing a task or dying could make your next bathroom break a little further away. and it could enforce that by not letting you pause for longer than two minutes at a time :p

a lesser punishment could be that water-sounds in game get louder, or you get more quests that involve swimming, fishing, diving, sailing... combine that with the slooowly ticking timer of your next bathroom allowance, and youve got a real mean bladder dom game!

ESPECIALLY if you manage to combine the two ideas! having to manage your character's water-intake, making them run to a bathroom just in the nick of time, hearing the sound effect of their relief... all while your own relief is just MINUTES away.

yeah. i like this concept :p

[bumblebeerror]

Nobody wants to hear it said but C!Schlatt was decent disabled rep. He had, from my understanding, chronic pain. He self-medicated with “alcohol”. Pain made it difficult to jump, run, or swim, and he took “protien shakes” to combat muscle atrophy, and that treatment lost effectiveness. That’s not an uncommon story when it comes to especially undiagnosed or uncontrolled chronic pain. Not to mention the dead common connotation that Schlatt was a monster, rather than a tyrant, and the way that translates to how disabled people are often treated. Fun fact, unless I’m misremembering, Techno is the only one to consistently label Schlatt a Tyrant as opposed to more dehumanizing terms.

His character was laughed at often, made fun of for not being able. Even the people who knew about his chronic pain, clearly found it funny. And I do understand that it was meant as a joke - and not even necessarily an insensitive one considering we are talking about a Minecraft political roleplay - but the theme is there.

Eventually, the only thing that gives him relief is alcohol, he drinks too heavily, and it causes a heart attack.

It’s not a happy story. It’s not a clean or pretty story.

But it is a story where a disabled character gains a position of power. He obtained it fair and square and played it lawful evil. And I feel like we do have to admit - he did some things… right. L’Manberg didn’t put the walls back up. It didn’t discriminate against any other citizens again.

Schlatt is a powerful foe, not for his physical strength, but for his mind and his silver tongue. He was more than a match for Wilbur because he has always been more than match for Wilbur - Schlatt has natural charisma, he’s got this way of speaking that’s designed to piss you off while leaving him sounding calm, collected, and rational. He makes a fool of Wilbur in the beginning with apparent ease. It’s not until his pain gets worse and he begins to drink more heavily that his skill begins to decay. But it takes until literally his last moments for Wilbur to finally be in control during a conversation between them. Sure, he’s got moments where he just sort of tells Wilbur to fuck off - but he still wins those interactions. Wilbur doesn’t talk shit to those until after Schlatt leaves the call.

I dunno, it’s 4am and I have t actually slept properly in a few days, but. I love this character and he gets a lot of flack for being the first villian.

All of this to say that while I love the “imposing figure with squared shoulders and nice hair and immaculate suit” fanarts I’m dearly wanting art that just. I just want my tired limp dishrag of a president okay. Just. Let me have this.

Hey! Here's some ideas I've had for the other potions:

Dog: Let's you find easily any object you need. This could be useful to find the objects that contain the Akuma, useful objects in fights or even objects you lost in your daily live. It works like your sense of smell gets bigger, and that's how you find the objects. (The main problem is that it could allow the heroes to find Monarch's hiding place easily by finding his weapon- so maybe there's a limited distance, and it only starts working in that distance. So, after you drink the potion, you'd have to go in a specific distance nearby the object to start "smelling" it. It could also simply don't work with any of the "natural objects" of the wonder- aka the clothes and weapons- but it would work with the akumatized objects because it wouldn't be part of the butterfly wonder. Basically, doesn't work with wonder's weapons and clothes, but if somehow the heroes were able to put any other object in the person- such as like, a hairclip- they would be able to sense where it went)

Goat: Gives you better craft skills. In civilian form, it could help you find more practical ways to build stuff (from DIYs to helping you build bigger stuff such as a house)- while in hero form, it could help you make useful weapons with basic stuff that you have around you (Basically what we call "Gambiarra" In portuguese- when you improvise stuff with what you have and it works) (Although the talisman kinda already does it, it could be useful to other heroes that don't have the Ladybug wonder, or to the Ladybug holder when they fail to use the talisman or simply need more than the talisman in the fight. Also it doesn't have to be limited to create stuff with things you have, it could also just improve your "building" skills in general, such as building houses etc- but I think it is kinda similar to the rooster potion, so it's complicated)

Monkey: So, I've had two ideas: The first one is that it let's you confuse you opponent easier, making him be distracted by you while you or your partner attack them. The other is that it is Actually a potion that you Throw in battle (like some Minecraft potions), and the person hit By it gets really confused, sees hallucinations, etc- like the monkey power does, but mentally and not physically. But this could be ALSO useful to use when a person is, for example, in great pain and/or in need of anesthetics. If you drink small amounts, the confusion will make your brain forget the pain and help you, it could save someone or save you a bit in a battle although it has the confusion side effects :D (I think the second option is cooler)

Ox: You get a great resistance in battle, not only from magical attacks but from physical attacks too. It can reduce great part of the damage. When you're civilian, it could help you if you had a dangerous job

Horse: let's you move around easier. For example, do you want to get from point A to point B in the most practical way possible? The potion would let you find the path that gets you there faster, showing any possible dangers and etc. It could be useful if you were chasing an Akuma that was pretty far from you and you HAD to get them, or if you're running from something and wanna be fast enough to not be caught

Mouse: I couldn't really find one for this one lol, unless you consider "multiplication" as a math skill. So it would make you great in math and, although it sounds a bit unuseful, if you had to for example make a plan that needs you to calculate stuff (like dipper from GF planning how to get the plushie for Wendy), it would help you have a much bigger hability in it. Math is really present in many stuff so, who knows (but I think this would be kinda hard to incorporate and stull a bit unuseful lol)

Apologies for taking so long to answer! (also for possibly being messy oopsie Ive been writing this in bulks)

All of those ideas are brilliant and I love them so much and thank you for contrubiting to the world Its not much but I appreciate it so aaaaaaaaa.

MnP ✦ Wonder Extracts ✦ Part 1.5

I couldn't for the life of me figure out how I wanted to tackle this post and I had just about 3 versions filled to brim with paragraphs. In the end, I feel like talking about each idea separately will be better and more organized + certain paragraphs that talk about a few changes to the potion system and how they'll contribute to the story. I hope It's at least somewhat cohesive now..

But first, I'll explain the words I use because I realize they might get a little mixed up sometimes

EXTRACT - The "pure" form. Not shaped into anything yet, It's a general/replacement term for original potions. ESSENCE - Burning essence, in short. These extracts are best to be used as a sort of "aromatherapy" and Master Fu often uses them for that exact purpose. POTION - Extracts that are best used for the actual fights like Elation and Evolution Potions.

Anyway, I'll start by introducing the MnP Potions once again and how they appear in the story. Potions are something NEW. The clan of Guardians has fallen while the Wuxing Wonders were still there, which means even the idea of something of a special extract with one of their properties was an entirely new idea, or at least one that wasn't explored in full just yet, because nobody expected them to be destroyed. In the episode where they'll be introduced to the heroes, Master Fu has only found recipes for extracts that are not very compatible in fight such as the Pig (relieves of stress) and Rooster extract (improves focus) and its the heroes who will have to help him find one that will help them defeat the villain.

A bit more misc info, but I like to think that the Wonder essences wil be very addicting. After all, they help you out or deal with something which is why Master Fu is the only one to really hold those recipes to make sure his beloved heroes don't take over-the-average doses so to speak.

Worth noting, I won't be using all the potions nor will I have them all discovered. Maybe some will require something that is no longer accessible or requires knowledge beyond Master Fu's rank.

Dog - That one's really good - especially to Hantengu situations. Maybe the villain is super small, but also super fast and requires a lot of attention to keep track of, but the Dog Potion will allow them to find and defeat them! I have to get it tangled into the story somehow now...

Goat - I'll be real with you, I never liked the Goat Miraculous in the show. Like. I genuinely hated the fact that it existed. However, It being an extract that boosts your creativity is actually SICK and could fit a lot, but only as a burning essence. I don't think It would work well as a potion and would more resemble like. drugs. Either way, It could be used in the story for a number of ways like maybe Jiayi uses it when in artblock or hell, I'd be funny If Adrien brought it home and Gabriel used it too!

Monkey - This one puzzled me a lot, because It could be really good! Unfortunately, the power of Peacock Wonder is eerily similar to the original Monkey miraculous and I don't want to have them overlap.

However, we can use the fact that the Monkey miraculous was inspired by the Sun Wukong - a chinese myth creature. I figured as such from the headpiece. In the myths, Wukong was able to transform into 72 different animals and that gives us something to go off. Perhaps the Monkey Potion could allow the person who drank it to disguise themselves or give off the impression that they're not actually THE person. A bit drastic example but lets say that Monarch gets his sticky hands on the potion. He could easily fool Wonderbug that he's Chat Noir by taking his form. It actualy gave me an idea for a revamped power of the Monkey, kind of a shame I can't use it anymore :shrug:

Ox - Really good!... But It might be too overpowered. Perhaps It will only work with physical attacks or direct attacks to your body so that It wouldn't work well against someone like Stormy Weather or Evilustrator. With this minor tweak, It would work with someone like Gorizilla or even Monarch himself and the balance is kept enough for it to appear again, but not every single episode

Horse - See, here I wasn't sure If the power was good enough to be the Wonder's power or If I should tweak it somehow to make it a little less powerful. It's an amazing ability to be able to find the best path to something, someone, but I feel like It's a little too much for an extract.

Mouse - Multiplication is a good idea to go off from and I think that while It could still be ueful as an essence, It wouldn't appear very often.. Now, after a bit of thinking about this, this might as well be one potion that doesn't have to be consumed, but instead poured onto something. As the mouse Wonder's power is to duplicate, the potion (holding a fragment of the artifact's power) could cause ITEMS to duplicate. In case of being consumed by a human or kwami or anything else, I think It would be too weak to do something which limits its power. At first I thought the mouse extract could boost not only math, but also logic skills.. but then again Rooster already boosts focus, I think It's better to leave them distinct - similar to Horse and Dog.

Once again, thank you so much for giving these ideas to me I'm really happy someone is interested enough to provide me with their little something or their thoughts about it!! DO IT MORE I LOVE READING ALL OF IT!!!!
