Who wants a bit of Minecraft spec bio?
In my headcanon for Minecraft the majority of mobs share a very recent common ancestor with a slime-mold adjacent organism called the "root node," meaning most mobs (villagers, illagers, skeletons, zombies, mooshrooms, others) are fungoid/plantoid-appearing creatures.
Villagers are among the most complex of them all, boasting an intricate method of expression through extendable facial "petals" (thin, mostly transparent membranes) that shift in color, pattern, and intensity to express a vast and dynamic field of emotions. The protrusions on their head resembling eyebrows and a nose light up in patterns to convey information. Conversation is occasionally emphasized by vocal cues (the iconic "hrms").
While impossible to translate standard villager conversation into something intelligible to humans without advanced technology, Steve is the most "fluent in villager," with a baseline understanding of what different colors mean on a villager's petals and even dyed paper cards to replicate the expressions himself. He also has established a rudimentary sign language with the nearby village.
Steve works with a certain villager he's nicknamed The Language Guy, or "TLG," to propose new signs or revise existing ones. TLG distributes language updates to the village when they happen. TLG is the most "fluent in human," so they are the village's Steve equivalent when it comes to diplomacy with humans. They are also working on writing a book with every established sign and its definition. Since villagers don't have a written language yet, it consists of easily interpreted pictograms.
Humans and villagers have rather shallow avenues of communication due to their complete lack of intuition about each other's natures. However, due to their frequent interactions, TLG and Steve are very close friends for creatures with a compatibility gap bigger than the Grand Canyon.
Alex would really like to learn about all of this, but she's not quite got the hang of it yet.

#what i like most about this is that due to how basic the information is that the villagers and humans currently know how to exchange#they appear primitive to each other despite both being intelligent#so you look as simpleminded and bizarre to the villager as the villager looks to you#and the only way to really bridge that gap is to treat them with the respect you want in return#i love when sophonts make middle ground with each other 💜#my art#mineblr#<-?#minecraft#mine craft#spec bio#lorepost#moldcraft#<- my tag for this#alex#steve#minecraft steve#minecraft alex#alex minecraft#steve minecraft#minecraft villager#hall of fame

HD Tarot Fest Art Claim - The World 🌎✨
XXI. The World
The world? Only the space between their palms.
Upright: completion, achievement, fulfilment, sense of belonging, wholeness, harmony Reversed: lack of closure, lack of achievement, feeling incomplete, emptiness
It was a lot of fun to design this tarot card. Thanks to the lovely mods for all their work in setting up and running the fest.
View on AO3
#drarry#hpdm#drarry fanart#harry potter#draco malfoy#i thought abt a lot of things when crafting this#almost none of which i fully remember#i gave them expressions that imply they feel the opposite of the written meanings for the card#harry is expected to be upright while draco is expected to be reversed#a bit of fun with their inner/outer selves basically#hd tarot 2024#doodle

something something how Bilbo kept his last promise to Thorin, You're going to live
by immortalizing him in a Legend that would rival any of the fair tales of the Elves, he brings Thorin to life again and again and again, whenever he tells the story of Thorin Oakenshield and his Company, saviors of Erebor. Thorin, his friend, doomed by the same dark magick that lurked in the Ring inside his pocket. Thorin who threw off the crown of Thror and instead reached for Bilbo's hand as he died.
the King Under the Mountain who defeated Smaug and Morgoth's accursed gold within the mental labyrinth of heady greed which burned in his mind from a life of poverty and ostracization, and the horrors of being a refugee. the darkest evils meant to corrupt and damn good hearts.
Thorin, who achieved more, who knew more in those fleeting cold moments of his death than most rulers can ever hope to glean from vast fortunes and countless years
You're going to live, it becomes a threat and a curse to the gods, because if Bilbo can't have him then Death can't either, he thinks while scribbling and scribbling.
and so this is how Thorin Oakenshield passes into legend - by the hand of the hobbit he gripped in preference to gold.
#bagginshield#im weeping#lol#bilbo like I an going to Craft a Legend that is so enduring-#a theme tolkien is so good at is: the hero of the story sees or learns someone else the hero of the story#spiderman meme of every character pointing to who the hero is#lotr#bilbo baggins#thorin oakenshield#thorin legit fought til the moment of his death#also its COOL how he was basically a testament to how Sauron could be defeated by no one knew it at the time#but**#and how bilbo picked up the ring lmao#sauron must have had them both on a dart board in the dark realm#I HATE THESE GUYS he says to the ringwraiths like hades and pain and panick

I received
PAKIGE

This is. Hmm. Decidedly more orange than I was anticipating, I thought it would be more of a medium brown. This is definitely more terracotta than cinnamon to me.
However! It does drape beautifully, almost feels like a heavy silk crepe. Not at all as flimsy as I thought viscose was going to be. I have confronted my prejudice, realized the error of my ways and am grateful for the opportunity to adjust my views.

Giving muted carrot vibes but it works I think. it's going on the inside anyway, who cares.
As for the wool, I finally washed it! No machine washing this time, I gave it a not-so-gentle soak in the bathtub with laundry detergent and hot water. I walked all over it, whacked it a bit for good measure, but that didn't achieve much besides making the fabric less stiff.


pre wash left, post wash right.
This is fine as I wanted to preserve the twill diagonals and overall rough look, and didn't want to felt it. I finished it with a lanolin bath, which did improve the softness of the fabric immensely.

lovely 💚
I didn't lose much width or length, so I'm gonna stick with my original plan

Excuse the light but this works I think. Now all I have to do is cut it (😬) sew a few seams, sew the inlay, add pockets and done.
#idk if I want outside pockets yet#I probably should but I'm worried about them stretching out#and there are no side seams so no putting the pockets there#hm. well sew the basic shape together first and then decide#moss trousers#crafts

is mini rollo flamable?
Yes they are :))) Some of them did catch on fire on the candelabras at pomefiore and they entered mini dark fire mode (silly little harmless legged flames) And to andwser another question about the fate of the minis at diasomnia well... No idea if they stayed in dark fire mode green edition or if it was too much for the little guys, I'll let it to your imagination...
The ones I crafted too, this one got his legs uhh a bit burned-

#Twst shitpost#should try again the mini dark fire lantern craft but with LEDs instead of actual candles :')#I draw them so much that they are basically an oc at this point

making my tags from the last post their own post, actually, because i went and did RESEARCH for this. SO BASICALLY
according to the wiki loop CANNOT crit in phase one
i dont know if their attack buff actually does anything (id have to fight them to check) since their attacks are based on percentage of your hp. BUT even if it did, they can only buff once per loop in phase one, meaning they can only do one buffed big attack per loop
regular attack does 10% hp (15% with attack buff), big attack does 17% hp (~25% with attack buff)
big attack is every third turn
guarding halves damage, halving the regular attack to 5% and the big attack to 8.5%
you heal 6% every turn with memory of a journey
those three turns where their attack is buffed aside, you can just stand there and guard and only lose a grand total of 0.5% of your hp for every three turns
this also does not take into account attack speed this is just assuming they both attack at the exact same rate. attack speed is gonna vary by level but i opened my act 6 save to check and my sif is level 76 and has 186 attack speed. they also have the scissors equipped which lower attack speed and i. cant unequip them. so. theres that too
so if youre fast enough (high level enough and dont have the scissors equipped like me. oops) you can straight up outheal all of loops attacks given enough turns + just standing there and guarding
loop does not want to hurt siffrin. thank you for coming to my ted talk
#talk tag#isat#isat spoilers#in stars and time#in stars and time spoilers#i THINK thats everything. yeesh#also not putting it in the post bc its not relevant but when i was looking stats and stuff up on the wiki#i noticed the only difference between regular level 99 sif and act 5 level 99 sif was. attack speed#act 5 sif is 200 and regular level 99 sif is 210. act 5 sif is slower. which is really interesting to me. like it makes sense#considering the Everything. but also its only. 10. i wouldve thought it would be more than that. bc like. craft exhaustion and such#idk. its not relevant to this post literally at all i just thought it was interesting LMAO#... wait this also doesnt take into account the 10% chance to inflict slow loops basic attack has#im not doing more math though. fuck it. that can be the compensation for the fucking scissors#compensation??? is the wrong word i think. yk. balancing out the scales or w/e#isatposting

Been working on some first run Chou sprites for funsies, here’s a handful of the ones I’ve done so far
#keese draws#isat#new game+#comic siffrin#comicfrin#isat siffrin#I mainly just wanted to figure out how chou may express differently than normal siffrin#they are alas far less kitty cat </3#but yeah even in their first run they were generally much lower energy than siffrin mostly due to stress#they are less used to traveling for long periods of time along with the whole savior thing going on#and while they start off generally handling their timeloop situation well enough even by the time they get the second orb they’re Tired man#and after the incident where they lost their eye they’re So ready for this to be over#and they haven’t even hit the wall of their final boss fight yet it took them a long while to get through that for the first time#the main thing is that their party spended most of their journey far more underleveled#for most of the main fights they were able to scrape through since the crew did have some disproportionally powerful abilities earlier than#the isat party would have similar skills (like their first recruit is a full blown shield specialist)#but as they got further and further and the boss gimmicks got more specific and punishing it would get Much harder#in the fight where chou lost their eye they were stuck for Months the first run trying to find a way to squeak through the fight#in game terms basically trying to abuse the consistent rng seed to find a chain of actions that would let them win#long story short the boss basically acts as a harsh punish for their lack of a proper healer#it also for realsies kills people like. during the battle. so the margin for error is slim to none.#basically once it takes out someone it’ll continue to target them and it can’t have its intent redirected#and it’s resistant to all craft types until it’s about to and failed to perform the final blow attack#without going too much into the party comp and how they generally fight just know that even if they weren’t underleveled this would low key#hard counter them since their whole game plan is about redirecting damage and simply killing the enemy before it kills them#so during this first run this fight was actual hell for chou to figure out and poor bastard hadn’t even hit their worst wall yet 😔#anyways that was a whole ramble that had nothing to do with the actual post I’m making. whoops.#point is they’ve earned the right to be low energy and stressed as hell they were Not built to carry a rpg party

Magnum Opus.
I heavily referenced and was inspired by the 1890 painting “Pygmalion and Galatea” by Jean-Léon Gérôme!!
To Be Hero X has been consuming me lately.... there's so much to analyze within every episode, every concept movie, etc... I'm so excited for episode 4 to come out.
#my art#tbhx#tbhx nice#to be hero x#to be hero x fanart#nicest#tbhx lin ling#tbhx fanart#traditional art#ough… thinking about how lin ling and nice are basically just the creator and the created#since lin ling helped create how nice is defined#lin ling basically crafted the persona of “nice” with how he helped promote him#sorry about not posting for like 2 months uhhh i'm significantly more active on twt
