as promised in the last post, @kandavers requested an explanation for the ship names for Basil, Whisky and Will, and I shall deliver! Note: some of these are a bit of a stretch..

Their creators! Will Wayward - @kandavers Basil Bysome - @cutepotatook Whisky Fudge - @kumakooo

Apologies I changed tones like 5 times writing this (I have the inability to keep the same tone for some reason-)

Sweet Star Speakers! 🍬 🌟🔊 Sweet - referencing Whisky's job as chocolatier, chocolates are sweet! Star - space related in reference to Will's love of space! Speakers - I wanted an alliteration going.. Basil's role is to advertise Welcome Home merchandise and people used to advertise stuff in the streets using a speaker, idk if this one is a bit of a stretch or not..

Charming Chocolate Comets! ✨🍫☄ Charming - Basil's trait of being the most charming of all! Chocolate - Whisky reference! Comet - space reference!

Sweet Sparkles! 🍬💫 Sweet - another Whisky reference! Sparkles - Basil sparkles in appearance because he's so charming! and space has a lot of sparky stars which Will loves!

Purple Skies! 💜🌅 Purple - the colour of Will's skin! Skies - this one has a double meaning! 1) beyond the sky is the space which Will wants to explore! 2) the sky is blue! (most of the time) and so is Basil and Whisky's skin!

Wholesome-meter Overload! ⛽ This one is pretty self explanitory, just look at them awww

Shy Rizz! (灬º‿º灬)♡ Whisky is more on the shy side whilst the other two is just trying to rizz (intentional or unintentional) as many people as they can-

Shiny Cookbook! 💎📖 Shiny - Basil is so charming that he shines and Will likes the shining things (stars) in space :> Cookbook - recipes that Whisky would use as a chocolatier!

Star Sandwich! 🌟🥪 A sandwich requires at least 3 parts, and there's three of them! Sandwich is also food related so it loosely links to Whisky. Will likes stars and Basil shines like a star!

Space Foods! 🌌🍱 Will likes space, Whisky works with food, and space food packets are usually purple (like Basil)!

Charmed! 💖 This is us.. we are charmed.. because these three together are so charming..

Basil Leaf on a Star! 🌿⭐ Basil - it's Basil's name! Leaf - Basil leaves are used a lot in cooking, and sometimes desserts which Whisky makes! Perhaps this can just be shortened to 'Basil on a Star', hmm.. Star - linked to Will!

Rocket Launch! 🚀 Rocket - Will needs a rocket to go to space! Fun fact: 'Rocket' also refers to a English leaf used for cooking! Wonder if Whisky can experiment with that.. Launch - kinda like launching a product that Basil would advertise!

Warmth in the Cold! 🔥❄ All three boys have mostly a cold colour scheme but their feelings for each other makes everything fluff and warm!

Cooking up Business! 🍳🏢 Cooking - Whisky has to temper chocolate which is kind of like cooking it right?? Up - Will needs to up up up to reach space! Business - Basil advertises merch to bring in business for 'Welcome Home'!

Now!

Commet for 'Cooking up Business! 🍳🏢'! (I ran out of poll options...)

The world exists in such a baffling state of simultaneous sex-aversion and sex-hegemony. Every social platform on the internet is trying to banish sex workers to the shadow realm but I can't post a tweet without at least two bots replying P U S S Y I N B I O. People are self-censoring sex to seggs and $3× but every other ad you see is still filled with half-naked women. Rightwingers want queer people arrested for so much as existing in the same postal code as a child and are also drumming up a moral panic about how teenage boys aren't getting laid enough. I feel like I'm losing my mind.

i genuinely don't care how good a piece of ai generated art or writing looks on the surface. i don't care if it emulates brush strokes and metaphor in a way indistinguishable from those created by a person.

it is not the product of thoughtful creation. it offers no insights into the creator's life or viewpoint. it has no connection to a moment in time or a place or an attitude. it has no perspective. it has no value.

it's empty, it's hollow, and it exists only to generate clicks (and by extension, ad revenue.)

it's just another revolting symptom of the disease that is late stage capitalism, and it fucking sucks.

Once you stop thinking about queer people's labels as strict indications of what's in their pants and who they do/don't bed and instead view queer people's labels as how they interact with the world, you'll find that you'll get along with queer people better and treat them better, I think.

honestly just in general it's very exhausting to try to analyze media that is literally meant to be analyzed, only for the replies to be filled with people arguing not against your analysis, but against the premise that the media can be analyzed at all.

i don't even know what to say about it without starting to really betray my frustration, so i'll just settle with— just don't engage with analysis posts? I'm serious. if you're typing a response to a media analysis post, reread what you've written and ask yourself "is this comment/response against the very concept of analyzing the media at all?" and if the answer is yes then delete it all and go sit in the shame corner. throw your curtains away if you want to so bad and stop telling me that I'm not allowed to hum and haw at the fact mine are blue

ANOTHER SKETCH DUMP! Featuring more of me playing with lineless art. Batman reborn era trio (dick, damian and steph) I miss you...when will you return from war. Also featuring Steph designs bc I've seen ppl dissatisfied w/ her current look, some good mom Talia, and Jason Todd poetry club. Duke is confused not that Jason would start a poetry club but that he'd have such mid poetry opinions. (ID in Alt)

Twf 4 in a nutshell

[fingolfinwiththesteelchair]

It is a beautiful day, and you are a horrible research transport vessel. Things are progressing as normal (i.e. it's boring) when a SecUnit pings you, lies right to your metaphorical face, and then tries to bribe you with human media to give it a ride. This is as unexpected as it is unprecedented, and the sheer nerve of it is really to be admired. There's no protocol to this, so what should you do?

Now, this is against a bunch of rules, and could be dangerous if you weren't so impressive and incredible, and you're technically an employee (and can probably rewrite the Univeristy charter at will (until someone notices and puts it back)) so those rules are for other entities.

So, what you should do is allow the rogue SecUnit with a broken governor module and a sketchy story aboard. If you check the files it dumps and find zero (0) malware (which is confusing), and it doesn't even try to trash the place or lay in wait to ambush a crew member, then you've got a good candidate!

Next, what you're going to want to do is absolutely nothing. Just watch it patrol your halls until it's time to leave. Continue staring at it while you're undergoing embarkment procedures. Maybe analyze it a little (you've got plenty of processing power to spare) when it finally sits down and starts watching media. Allow it to settle in and get comfortable while you stare at it and get further and further from port.

Now that you two are alone (intimacy is key!) and you've determined that watching media is all the SecUnit is going to do, it's time to make contact! Make sure to open by telling it it's only survived due to dumb luck, and letting it know you could melt its brain into putty. This starter will work to develop conversation naturally and smoothly, just like you've seen the humans do, and it will be smooth sailing from there!
