#It was the one where he played the new Hatsune Miku game

[kawaiichibiart]

Okay, new AU idea based off my current team's costumes on EN:

In this AU, WxS never formed. In fact, they didn't even meet each other (aside from Nene and Rui).

Nene goes to an unnamed school (unnamed because 1) I couldn't think of one, and 2) it doesn't matter in the end) where she's known as the quiet, shy girl, who does nothing but play video games. She's very lonely because of this, and due to her old friend's disappearance earlier that year. No one knows what happened to Rui Kamishiro and many believe he had finally succumbed to a fault in his inventing.

Nene doesn't believe that he's truly gone but she wishes she had a definite answer.

Well, one day, Nene was approached by some of her classmates while she was consumed by her current game. It wasn't until her gaming console was taken out of her hands that she noticed them. It wasn't the first time this has happened and it didn't make it any less frustrating and upsetting for her. It was always like this. She was just a scared little rabbit amongst a class that dubbed themselves wolves. They would take something from her and provoke her until either she cried or a teacher interfered.

Not this time. This time they didn't bother to wait for her tears to falls or for a teacher to walk over and demand the console. Instead they pushed Nene towards the trees of a nearby park. The park had long since been abandoned. It was overgrown with fauna and some even called it a small forest. She was to spend the rest of the day there. Come the end of the day, if she came out, they would give her her console back. If not, well, hopefully she made it back home.

Nene was about to tell to forget it and to just keep her stupid console when one of them shoved her into the bushes. She heard them laughing as they ran off. Just as she got up, she noticed it looked like she went farther in than she believed. The trees seemed taller and denser...it felt eerie despite being rather bright...no matter. She just has to walk forwards and... there were more tree. She just has to continue forwards, her school should just be a few feet...more trees.

She didn't get that far from her school. She wasn't even that far in the park. She was just in front of the first few trees it had. She was pushed in a bush, there was no way she ended up somewhere else. The stories about the park were just that. Stories. Everyone who entered always made it out. So why? Where was she? She couldn't hear the kids from her school or the school's bell. She couldn't see the playground equipment. Where. Was. She?!

Not wanting to get, but also not wanting to stay out, Nene eventually started to walk around. Maybe she was being paranoid. Maybe her game got to her. Or maybe her emotions were getting to her because of what's been going on.

Nene makes her way through the...forest? Park? She's not sure anymore, when she sees flowers. Bright, colorful, beautiful flowers. For a moment, she thinks she finally made it out. She walks over to them and follows them as they grow and grow. That's when she sees her.

Blue pigtails, pink cat ears, her clothing covered with the same flowers she's been following.

It can't be. This has to be a costume. Right? This can't be... Hatsune...Miku?

Can it?

It is. One tug on her hair and cat ears proves it. Unless she was a very dedicated cosplayer...but...

Whatever, maybe now Nene can get answers. Miku is more than happy to give them to her. She's entered a place known as SEKAI. It's been a while since a human has entered their little world. Miku loves it when people visit and when they like her flowers.

Is there a way for Nene to go back? Go back? Why? Why does Nene want to go back? Does she not like Miku's flowers? No, no no no, it's not that. She just wants to go home.

Well...uh... that's kinda the problem...SEKAI opens and closes at random. It could be hours, days or even months before it opens and allows anyone to enter or exit. BUT BUT BUT!!

Maybe KAITO can help!! He knows more about people being able to come and go from SEKAI.

KAITO?

Yes. KAITO. A warm hearted demon who lives deep within SEKAI.

KAITO is willing to do what he can to help Nene. He can't promise he can get her home soon, but maybe he can see something about shortening her stay. Meanwhile, he's more than happy to let her live with him and his two charges.

Knowing there is no better choice, although she could stay with Miku, Nene takes him up on the offer.

Now, while he works on getting her home, there are more things to know about SEKAI. No one is human here. Well, duh, obviously. No, literally no one is human, if they were human once, they no longer are. Miku is a cat. KAITO is a demon. One of his charges is a wolf, the other a tiger. Years ago, a bear cub* found her way into SEKAI. All three of them were humans once, and all of them had lived long enough to lose their humanity. Only the bear cub left SEKAI as soon as she learned to cloak her new features.

You cannot survive in SEKAI as a human. SEKAI tends to make you lose your mind if you try to stay human. It likes playing mind games with humans. Trapping them and making them go insane. For her safety, she had to wear a disguise.

She might not look that much like a cuddly, fluffy, rabbit, but her cyber-rabbit ears will have to do. How KAITO had them, she didn't want to know.

Since KAITO would be busy looking into a faster way to return Nene home, and Miku had long since left back to her garden, Nene decided to walk around.

While she knew KAITO had two charges, she didn't think she'd run into either of them. She'd hope to avoid them. But since when did she have luck?

She ran into the first as she explored. The wolf before her was tall and had long hair tied in a low ponytail. He was also, as Nene quickly found out, loud.

After they both managed to calm down, he introduced himself as Tsukasa Tenma.

Tenma? Nene was sure she knew that family. Their children went missing years ago and the search for them was stopped by the parents, who had given up. Their son went missing first and his sister followed soon after. Search after search resulted in nothing, so both parents assumed their children would never return (for whatever reason you wish to assume) and called everything off.

Tsukasa tells her it could be a coincidence, he can't really remember anything from before he arrived in SEKAI. But he is surprised she knows he has a sister. His darling sister Saki!! She lives nearby with Luka!

Luka?? As in, Megurine Luka? That Luka?

Yes.

This was getting to be too much. She needed a break. Just, give her a moment.

Deciding the best thing to do was get some sleep, Nene opened a door, and upon seeing the bed inside, went in and collapsed into it.

Maybe she would wake up in her room. Maybe a teacher found her and she didn't realize because she blocked it out. Maybe she would wake up in those bushes again, see her school, and go home and beg her parents to be homeschooled. Maybe this was just a dream inspired by all the games she's been playing and this was a sign that she needed a break....yeah.

Yeah. Sure. Let's go with the "this is all a dream~" theory.

And that's when she hears his voice. His damn voice saying her name. She didn't want to look. It felt like this fueled the whole dream theory.

He said her name again. She didn't look. She ignored him until his hand touched her shoulder. She looked back and saw KAITO's second charge.

Despite the tiger ears on his head, she recognized him. How could she not recognize him?

Rui FUCKING Kamishiro. Her childhood friend who disappeared months ago.

But, how could he remember her? Tsukasa couldn't remember his past, so why did Rui? If...if she had come years later, would Rui have forgotten her?

Well...maybe. Rui had only been there for a few months, he was still adjusting to his new life in SEKAI. He still has memories of things and people from back home.

Tsukasa, on the other hand, as Rui found out from KAITO, had been in SEKAI since he was about 13, he is about to turn 17. He's been in SEKAI for roughly 4 years now, as Miku and KAITO said, he lost his humanity. In his mind, he's always been a wolf. When he arrived, Miku found him and took him to KAITO. To protect him, they gave him the ears of a wolf costume. But when the "doors" of SEKAI opened, he didn't want to leave. He didn't want to go back to an empty home. To parents who were almost never there. To a school where if he was too loud, he was annoying, but if he's too quiet he's a weirdo. The only person he'd miss and who'd miss him was his sister. But in the moment, that wasn't enough to convince him to go home. So, he stayed longer. And longer. And...longer.

And one day, he just, couldn't remember anything of his past beyond having a sister and his own name. The ears of the wolf costume turned into real ones. His appetite changed, his mood changed. But while he is a wolf, it's more like he's a dog. He loves attention and is very affectionate, kinda like a puppy.

Anyways, when Miku brought Rui over, the two boys weren't exactly friends. Since KAITO was trying to help Rui return home, Tsukasa felt like his caretaker was ignoring him. The boys would snap at each other and pick fights over the smallest of things.

Spider-man: ATSV NSR AU

Ok, I usually don’t post stuff and only reblog and like stuff but since i just watched Spider-man ATSV and I really liked it that it hasn’t left my mind and won’t leave it any time soon I’m still so hyped I feel like sharing this. I was on my way home when I started to listen to the NSR soundtrack and the inevitable happened just remembering the premise for the game and what happens in the movie I started connecting thoughts and this entire AU happened.

My writing isn’t the best to make a fanfic that does justice to my ideas at the moment and hell if I can’t write I have even worse at drawing so making fanart for this is also out of the picture.

For anyone who doesn’t know NSR (No Straight Roads) it’s an indie game from 2020 that’s very underrated from what I’ve seen. The plot is very simple a Rock duo Mayday (a guitarist) and Zuke (a drummer) enter a competition made to scout for new talents that want to join NSR, a company that besides functioning as a music company works as the main energy supplier for the city by using a Mcguffin that transforms music into energy. Anyways NSR turns out to be a group of EDM artists that have complete control over the city and never allow any other genres to join especially not rock, so after getting rejected and suffering a city wide power outage (which NSR is completely inmune from) our rock duo decides to start a revolution to bring back Rock and take down NSR by hijacking their concerts. If you have not played it take this as a recommendation the art style, gameplay and music are reaaaally good (worth mentioning the music for each boss is dynamic it starts as EDM but as you start having the upper hand the music turns into a rock version of the same song).

The premise for the game and having Gwen and Hobie right there in the movie made this AU inevitable in my mind so I’m sharing it here.

So the characters I’ll be using changing for the AU will be the two main protagonists and the 6 main bosses of the game.

First off the protagonists

Because it’s a guitarist and drummer Gwen and Hobie take Mayday and Zuke’s place that one seems a bit obvious to me. It can also be Gwen and Miles but I ended up choosing Gwen and Hobie. However instead of starting their movement after being rejected by NSR they’re fully into their revolution agenda and hijacking the EDM concerts

DJSS

The first boss is Dj Subatomic Supernova and honestly that one was also an easy pick as he directly fits with Spot, especially because of his last phase in his fight where his face breaks and it looks like a black hole ejecting black matter or whatever. They’re both also so self-centered and silly.

SAYU

Sayu is the second boss and consists of a virtual idol (like Hatsune Miku) made as a project by four adolescents so for the au she could be made by peni parker and the virtual reality spiderwoman (i can’t remember her name :’) ) but idk who else could be put as one of Sayu’s creators in this AU.

YINU

Yinu is a child pianist prodigy so for her I’d go with Mayday Parker, since Yinu also gets help from her mother during the fight I guess Mary Jane helps her or maybe Peter B. idk? It’s just that Yinu’s dad in the game is dead and that’s also one of the reasons she plays her piano because her dad taught her. Yinu’s character is supposed to represent the lack of control child prodigies have in their lives because their parents or guardians are in charge of making all the decisions during their youth so I imagine Hobie would spend a bunch of this confrontation telling her to go wild and start doing whatever she wants to do while Gwen would tell Peter or Mary Jane to pay more attention to Mayday and be a better single parent, culminating in the piano solo at the end of Yinu’s boss fight

1010

So this one’s a bit weird but hear me out. 1010 consists of a boy band made up by 5 robots that are almost identical with the exception of their color and hairstyle so in this case it’s five alternate versions of Miles Morales robots as a boyband while the original Miles (the one that isn’t a robot) is Neon J (the creator of 1010) in this AU. I ended up choosing Miles for this one because despite how much Mayday says she despises them she has a crush on 1010 and while Gwen and Miles wouldn’t really act like Mayday and 1010 respectively I still chose this because of that.

In a similar way Gwen has a crush on 1010Miles but she isn’t entirely into it because the Miles robots have an artificial vibe to them like prefabricated charm and personalities, they can fool a lot of people but not everyone. Once one breaks and the real Miles comes out to replace it they start focusing on him, Gwen and Miles throughout the fight start to realize they like each other mean while Hobie goesout of his way to show how he’s in the wrong as he should question the stuff they do and shouldn’t be following NSR, by the end when they defeat Miles he ends up accepting it and actually rooting for them to beat the remaining members.

I’m using an action figure as a substitute for robots lol

EvE

This one I reserved for my favorites Nadia (EvE) and Pavitr. Eve happens to be an eccentric artist and Diva that is the second in command because of her skill. There’s a couple of reasons I chose to have Pavitr in Eve’s place:

First, during the briefing before her fight it’s stated that the “instrument” she uses to make her music is her body and mind in contrast to all the previous artists which have actual specific instruments (from sinthesizers to a piano) which doesn’t explain much until you get to her fight and see her dance, she dances (and probably uses a bit of magic as well or something) to make her music. If I’m gonna give the ability to make music through the movement of their body to anyone it’s gonna be Pavitr.

Second, during her phases Eve shows she can warp the space around her in what she refers as the Diva’s realm and from what I remember the part of diva’s realm is supposed to be a reference to Deva’s realm and Devas are deities from hinduism if I’m not mistaken, so there’s also that.

Last but not least I like a bit of angst. In the game its shown Zuke and Eve used to have a good relationship as they were a duo and know each other closely to the point Zuke knows what’s going on in her mind while many don’t, however after a certain incident they disbanded. Similarly in this AU they used to be a duo until they received an invitation to join NSR, Pavitr wanted to share his music and art and be in contact with everyone in their community so he accepted, this however was a deal breaker for Hobie so they disbanded. Once he got his position Pavitr could share his music however after being put in a pedestal he no longer could keep in touch with his community as much when he wanted leaving him feeling isolated and only focuses on his craft now as a way to cope. Their fight besides being about taking him down would have the purpose of mending Hobie and Pavitr’s relationship.

TATIANA

This one was also very obvious Miguel takes Tatiana’s place. To begin they’re the respective leaders of their antagonistic faction but also majorly because the entire story of NSR and ATSV happens because both of them had a very specific personal problem and instead of dealing with it by themselves or getting help to solve it they decided to make it everyone else’s problem and never even try to recognize that maybe they’re wrong.

And that’s it that’s all I have in my mind

[just-a-carrot]

Continuing on with the second song, the connection is more towards Wonderland itself, the characters who enter wonderland as adults and how a world which may grant what you think may want may be lead you to be trapped in relation to the song Negiposi*Continues by Sasakure.UK, featured as a playable song in Hatsune Miku Project Diva F.

Okay that makes it sound way more important than any of this even is.

The song itself could be interpreted as the vocalist, who I'm going to call Ribbon girl because I like using that module on the song, entering her favourite video game, escaping from reality and into the game. This could be seen her playing the game as a means of escapism, or as in the MV, her physically entering the world of the game.

In Our Wonderland, Iggy and his friends discover the world of Wonderland as children, where whatever they could wish for would come true. Now as adults with somewhat miserable lives, Wonderland becomes more enticing now. It's a way to escape their sad reality of their adult lives and live whatever life they wish for, which is what led to Bucks using Sadie to open up the doorway to Wonderland so that she could escape her problems. This would lead the other characters to reenter Wonderland themselves with their own wishes that they have in their adult lives.

this makes me think of some lyrics from the beginning of the song:

Anxious about stumbling

With my fingers, fingertips, and vision

I cross over to another world

Deceived by the upbeat rhythms

It feels so cozy and fun

I think I want to stay "here" forever

These lyrics are about how after entering into this new world, Ribbon Girl found that it was so much fun that she never wants to leave. She chooses to stay in this world rather then return to the real world, at least at first, as she finds it much better 'here', referring to the game world.

In Our Wonderland, after entering Wonderland as adults and having their wishes granted to them, the three characters who entered earlier then when Iggy and Genzou entered, Bucks, Orlam and Gidget, have definitely fallen into this hole of wanting to stay in Wonderland forever, probably because it gives them what they could want, since it grants their wishes. Bucks get's to have some peace and quiet from her problems in the real world, Orlam finally has the power and respect he always wished he had because of all the abuse he went through in life, and Gidget gets to become what they think is the ideal woman. similar to Ribbon Girl, they love what this new world can give them so much that they would rather stay then return to the real world, especially Bucks, who can get... violent when she thinks someone is trying to take her out of Wonderland. the only characters unaffected by this are Iggy and Genzou, and a part of that is likely that they are the last ones to enter Wonderland, and spend the least amount of time in it.

Another lyric that should probably be highlighted is:

be-be-be-beat continues!

In the song beating continue means saying no. It means for Ribbon Girl that she chooses to leave this fantasy game world and return to reality, in which for most of the song she chooses no, because she enjoys this world so much.

Similar to that, you could potentially connect to a similar choice that everyone in Our Wonderland has. Do you stay in Wonderland, or do go home back to your regular lives? For most of these characters, their answer is to stay in Wonderland, even Iggy get's caught up in this in Arc 3.

As the song continues, Ribbon Girl continues to spend more time in this game world, choosing to continue staying there rather then return home, even as unbeknownst to her, she was slowly losing herself and her grip on reality.

Similarly, in Our Wonderland, there are times when characters mention how they have lost track of time since entering Wonderland, such as when Gidget mentions how she's lost track of time ever since entering Wonderland, or when in Arc 3 after joining Orlam in ruling Wonderland, how Iggy himself loses track of time in Wonderland.

Now I mentioned before that Ribbon Girl was slowly losing herself in this game world, and near the end of the song it becomes apparent as the game world corrupts around her, and she's found herself losing her sense of identity, her name, where she is, even what left or right is gone. this is similar in Our Wonderland, where the characters who stay in Wonderland for longer periods of time get their personality twisted and warped to the point of insanity, such as how Bucks becomes incredibly paranoid and willing to kill anyone she saw, thinking that they would take her back to reality, or how Gidget's love for Iggy and their perceived need for him to be interested in them to be an ideal women becomes an obsession that leads to them doing horrific actions to Iggy. Orlam becomes a tyrant that actively cannibalizes his people, and does all he can to make Genzou feel all the pain that was dealt to him from Genzou's bullying, now that he had the power.

some of the lyrics at the end of the song showcase this:

This World,

Even though I love it

The space or reality

I don't know where I am!

AAAAAAHHHHH!

My face or name, right or left,

I don't remember them

Lonely Negative Positive

This is Ribbon Girl's full realization of how deep she's found herself in this game world. She kept choosing to continue staying in the game world, losing her sense of self and reality as she spiraled deeper into the game until everything is breaking apart and she can no longer remember anything about herself or reality, like how the characters in Our Wonderland lose themselves into the world of Wonderland and become their worst selves generally for most arcs.

For one last point, the final lyrics are:

Be-be-be-beat continues!

Be-be-be-beat continues!

Be-be-be-beat continues!

sorry i copy-pasted the second part of your ask into this one because i didn't know how else to reply to both at the same time as it's a single ask lakdfjasd

but this is super interesting!! i really love the way you've connected so many parts of the song to the different themes and plot points of OW. the looping part and trying to break out of the loop is especially intriguing as it does feel a lot like the futility the 5 (and especially iggy) face and start to feel bound by in arc 5 when they finally realize what's going on but don't know how to stop it. also the fact that they all slowly lose more and more of themselves the longer they stay inside wonderland, both from wonderland's influence itself and also just the fact that they've become complacent and spoiled at living out their dreams for days on end without any repercussions

i think about the loop in general a lot. and how many times they must have all gone through the loop, even when we as the players (or me as the author) don't see it. and how many more stories there are in there. there are even multiple arc 5s if you consider that there's a game over in there. so that means some loops are repeats of them remembering everything, which almost makes it even worse, as it would feel even more futile (and it's also what the collector tries to convince iggy of during the kiddie kruise scene, that they'll just keep looping forever)

i always love seeing things like this that can be connected so strongly to the themes, so it's really cool!! i think it's because so much of horror and stories in general can be boiled down to some of these very basic themes that strike chords in our hearts

thank you for sending in this analysis!!! and i'll be sure to check out the song!! 💕

[theogonies]

more scuffed haikyuu headcanons because they're fun and i'm neglecting my homework. music themed this time!

(my last set of social media headcanons are here)

hinata listens to a LOT of music, mostly on all those long bike rides to & from school and during all his solitary practice sessions, so he's been tasked with making all the workout/practice/hype playlists for the karasuno team. he takes his job very seriously, every one is unique and perfectly curated. loves making playlists for people he cares about too <3

this is a PROBLEM for kageyama. he never really listened to music before (scary) but now he spends minimum 1 night/week lying awake way too late at night listening to hinata's playlists and scrolling through genius lyrics.

kenma's got pretty broad taste but he mostly listens to ambient video game osts. minecraft, pokemon, animal crossing, anything cozy and atmospheric. he and hinata have a bunch of collaborative playlists to share new music they find with each other.

somebody said that tendou is a miku stan and like. yeah. i can see him being a huge vocaloid and nightcore fan in general, it would scratch his brain in just the right way.

probably more of a controversial take but i can see ushijima being into vocaloid too. he'd never heard of it before meeting tendou but now he uses it to hype himself up before matches. his teammates will walk past and see him sitting on a bench with his earbuds in, no expression on his face, they all assume he's listening to a podcast or something. no. it's hatsune miku and ushijima is having the time of his life. he and tendou went as rin and len for halloween one year

pretty much the only time that tsukishima isn't listening to music is when he's actively playing in a match. he listens to a lot of lyrical & experimental singer-songwriter type stuff, music that would be considered pretentious if he actually talked to people about it but he's very private about his taste. only uses wired headphones.

he and yamaguchi share a lot of music, too. not like hinata and kenma where they're trading playlists though, it's just that they share tsukishima's earbuds a lot and if yamaguchi hears something he likes, he likes asking questions about it/the lyrics/the artist. it's a win-win for both of them, yamaguchi learns about tons of new music that way and tsukishima loooooves infodumping about the things he's into <3

sugawara loves american oldies. frank & nancy sinatra, the beach boys, a lot of jazz and swing n shit. anything you can slow dance to! he's a romantic. the boys tease him about it a lot but secretly they all find it super endearing. probably takes swing classes on weekends now and then tbh

atsumu and osamu go to punk shows together. it's more osamu's thing (atsumu's personal taste is a little more bro-y) but they both love unwinding in the mosh pit after a long day. the dashboard in their car is full of cassette tapes from diy bands they've seen. no they do not have a tape deck

oikawa and iwaizumi listen to a lot of the same music. anything with a good beat really. the difference being that iwaizumi can dance and oikawa cannot (to his credit, he does try. he really, really tries.)

Name: Rui Kamishiro

Series: Project Sekai

Continuity: Mobile game

Age: 17

Height: 5'11"

Birthday: June 24th

Birthplace: Japan

Orientation: Bisexual

Species: Human

Occupation: Student / Director and actor for the WonderlandxShowtime musical theater troupe

Bio:

Son of a robotics engineer and chemist, Rui had grown up with a deep love of science, specifically the science of machines. As a child, his favorite toys were always robotic ones that he actually learned how to modify to perform better tricks, much to his parents shock at their prodigy son.

His mother is a huge fan of musical theater and so brought he and his friend, Nene, to a musical where the two of them were completely blown away by the magic the performers brought to the stage. From that moment forward, Rui wanted to be a musical theater actor! His parents became extremely supportive of his decision and put him into both acting and dancing lessons, teaching himself to sing from sheer passion.

His love of robotics and high stakes would quickly come into play where Rui had some pretty dangerous or risky ideas whenever he and other children tried to put on shows together. From shooting rockets, climbing over unsafe fences for 'action', etc. It was to a point where other children thought Rui was too weird and began to ignore him. By the time he entered middle school, Rui's only friend was Nene but even they drifted apart after she got into a theater troupe in her middle school.

Believing he was better off alone than people who didn't understand him, he only ever managed to make one friend and that was a person named Mizuki. They met now and again on the school rooftop, where they both deeply appreciated one another's company as people who had no friends and just couldn't fit in.

As high school rolled around, he and Mizuki went their separate ways as Mizuki chose to do most of their schooling at home, but Nene had enrolled in Rui's high school where they reunited again as friends. This was when he was approached by his classmate, Tsukasa Tenma, into joining a musical theater troupe at the theme park, Phoenix Wonderland.

He agreed on a whim, but also to see if Tsukasa really had that same passion and risk taking that Rui had as well. The shock was that Tsukasa fully accepted Rui to put in his robotics and special effects into their shows as well as direct them.

Although their first show was a disaster from all their lack of communication, Rui had even lost all faith in Tsukasa as a person as all Rui wanted to do was make people smile while Tsukasa wanted to "be a star". Yet that faith in his new friends would quickly come back when they all finally got to communicate and even put on a show just for him to apologize.

That is, this show was played in a world apparently created by Tsukasa's feelings as a performer called "SEKAI" where Rui was greeted by the Vocaloid characters Kaito and Miku Hatsune. After the team patched up, officially continuing as WonderlandxShowtime at Phoenix Wonderland's Wonder Stage, they would continue to visit this Sekai where even more Vocaloid characters would come up.

Currently, WonderlandxShowtime is one of the most beloved troupes in the park. Despite their small cast, it makes Rui happy to know just how many people smile and laugh with their shows, some even cast tears when scenes were emotional. Rui can finally say he has friends, and for once in his life, finally feels as though his dreams are coming true.

Rui can be very sweet and friendly, but he is admittedly very odd sometimes as well. He loves to ramble about technology or other scientific facts when given the chance, especially when in front of an animatronic he's never seen before. Yet for as sweet and quirky as he is, sometimes he can be easy to shut off and not communicate his own feelings to others, stemming from his inner fear of ending up completely alone.

I saw a few comments on one of e’last’s relay tiktoks where people thought Romin was an a.i and cause they couldn’t believe he was real and at first I thought it was funny ya’know I was half laughing half crying cause why would you even ask that but now it’s unsettling. The fact the we’re at the point that sometimes we as humans can’t tell when a person is a real human or an a.i that is realistic. It scares the hell outta me. It’s like that stupid a.i movie that I want to burn the vhs tape to cause I fucking hate it so much.

There’s even been a few video games I’ve seen people online play where the characters look human but it’s just like advanced cgi. It’s creepy to me. I want to be able to tell the difference between a human and and robot ya’know? Like I feel like with all these new advances in technology people should be making flying cars like we all hoped for in the 50’s not like robots that look human and act and talk human it’s creepy. Not to be dramatic but there’s all kinds of books and media where robots out smart humans and take over. I don’t want some creepy a.i to clone me, kill me and pretend to be me. When I look at someone I want to be able to confidently say “that’s a living breathing real human” not “oh shit wtf it that a human or not?” I don’t want to question if something is real of fake.

And recently in kpop and like other things like that Instagram person like a.is are idk if people actually want this stuff or if they think it would be cool to see it blow up but I hate it. I was completely against the whole idea of Aespa being real members and a.i member, and like tbh to me Aespa is just four members. I mean the a.i version’s of themselves that don’t even look like them have appeared like once or twice? But like superkind I legit though all the members were real and it took me like their entire debut mv to realize that one member is an a.i and that creeps me out that they made an a.i look so real that I assumed it was. There’s also Apoki that’s literally an a.i rabbit thing and now there’s this mave group where no one is real and just the other day I saw a video formatted to look like someone reacting to the pandora mv BUT IT WAS A FUCKING A.I so what are companies making a.I’d to specifically react to other a.is or making a.i trainees it’s fucking creepy and I hate it. But some people are eating that shit up they actually like it which is fine but good luck fighting for your life when your a.i boyfriend tries to murder you. Even with that Megan movie it’s a robot child that’s supposed to have human features but it’s like a killing machine fucking hell not a.i 2.0 I just don’t understand why people want to make people that aren’t people. It quite literally gives me the heebie jeebies.

And it seems like some people are so used to idols not being human that they are starting to question other idols. Like is the kpop industry going to shift towards more a.i idols? Are we going to irl that episode of Arthur? They even had that Apoki rabbit do a relay and go on it’s live with two rabbit dancers? Like what the actual honest genuine fuck?

ALSO I KNOW ABOUT GORILLAZ OK BEFORE ANYONE SAYS ANYTHING but they’re like clearly not a.is and neither is Hatsune Miku and like even tho both have had like weird hologram concerts how are these idols, like superkind and Aespa and mave supposed to have like concerts and fansigns if they made the a.is “attend” like pretty sure Aespa and superkind are just running around and doing stuff without the a.is. Like what are they going to do if someone..ugh idek how are companies going to have groups or whatever with all or including a.is and what about like Aespa and superkind how do they feel about it. Bro if I was going to debut and the fuckig company said “here’s your fellow member” and a fucking a.i hologram popped up I’d high tail it outta there no thank you. Like superkind they literally have just a place holder. I don’t understand why this is becoming a thing unless they just want the industry to eventually become all robots so it’s like no contact which I guess it good in some ways as a.i’s don’t have feelings and can’t get hurt or stalked by whack fans but I was hoping that I would be dead before I saw any of this shit happening.

Like I cannot explain how creepy and unsettling it is to see and hear about things from the past coming true like robots and like the entirety of The Simpson’s predictioning crazy shit that comes true later on or like Orsen Wells some of the stuff in those books that are coming true because then that’s not just someone with a wild imagination that’s someone that is so whack that they predict the future no matter how fucked up but call it fiction. Does anybody else find any of this just straight up unsettling? Like I’d rather see a ghost in my room then a fucking a.i that looks like a human. I’m so creeped out just thinking about this shit ugh and I can’t stop thinking about how it’s getting harder to tell what’s real and what’s fake whether it’s a robot or a photoshopped picture because technology is advancing and it makes me want to shrivel up like a raisin and die.

AnimeGO 2023 Report!

I had the opportunity to go to AnimeGO this year! It was a Japanese Pop Culture Festival that had so many things there! There was an arcade there, kimono dressing, yummy food and so much more!

I went with my good friend Pie (@piedivide), which you’ll see him appear throughout this report! Thank you for the fun time, Pie!!! ヽ(>∀<☆)ノ

The report is below the cut!

So, context time.

Pie told me about this festival one day about a month or two ago. I didn't even know it was a thing in all honesty, but it sounded so cool! The tickets were pretty cheap as well, and was filled with things that we both liked (aka anime and Japan lol).

And so, we decided to go!

We bought tickets as soon as they came out, and awaited the day to come.

A few days before the Festival, we met up and looked through all of the activities that it was offering on the day. One of the activities that interested us the most is the Kimono Dressing. It only cost $10 for a ticket and you could dress up in a Yukata and take photos!

We literally bought the tickets right away (I pulled out my laptop just so I could buy it lmao), and we managed to get the same timeslot too!

With all of that, we were ready for Sunday!

Day of the Festival!

Before we went to AnimeGO, we took a detour to the UNIQLO store because they were having a Cardcaptor Sakura collaboration and I wanted to get a top if they had any left. Spoiler alert, they did not have any left ;;

We then went to a new bookstore that opened up in the same building, I had no idea it was even up there. I don't go into the city too often so it's always a surprise for me. The inside was very lovely, and of course we gravitated straight to the manga section.

A lot of older manga were there, especially the first three volumes of Animal Academy, one of my favourite manga! I used to borrow the first six volumes from the library, but they only have the second one now which sucks ;;

And so, I couldn't pass up this opportunity. I bought all the volumes lol

And now all we had to do was find the entrance to the venue.

We knew the general direction, but not where it was exactly. We went up and down, thinking we were going the wrong way until we spotted a Nezuko cosplayer who saved us lol

Pie and I went all the way around to get to the venue and even got on an elevator, when we could have just walked through the train station (　˙-˙　)

It's about the journey, not the destination! (tells myself that to make myself feel better lol)

We got these little wristbands to prove we bought tickets as soon as we got there and I managed to break the one I got for Pie orz

He had to get a new one. I’m sorryyyyyyyy (シ. .)シ

We paid our respects to our Fumo overlords (or I forced Pie to)

Arcade!! I love arcades.

The Arcade was the best part to me. All because they had Hatsune Miku Project Diva MegaMix + with the the arcade controls!

I freaked out a bit as soon as I saw it. I've never played this game with the arcade controller so I was pumped to try it!

I played Senbonzakura first, although I probably should have chosen the F version so I could have gotten the pretty MV but that's okay! I got to play and that's all what matters to me lol

I then played my favourite Vocaloid song ever, Butterfly on Your Right Shoulder. I actually failed it the first time because I forgot all of the controls for some reason lmao

I redeemed myself at the end and passed it, don't worry. I was so happy to play it. Len and Rin make me happy!

I also did Hand in Hand and that was fun too! Next time I want to play it more!

Pie did Ghost Rule with this lovely Module that looked so pretty. This is Snow Miku 2019!

We tried out Sound Voltex, which was something I never heard of before. It looked sort of confusing at first, but was a lot of fun once you got the controls down! Aqua from Konosuba was the navigator and she made funny faces at you on the results screen if you did not so great.

Would love to play it again some day.

We also played Taikou no Tatsujin and Muse Dash! We played the heavenly melody, the Calamari Inkantation by the one and only Squid Sisters, blessing the whole Festival with squid music.

Muse Dash was very enjoyable, it was my first time playing it. I heard of it beforehand but never had the chance to try it out. I tried playing it without knowing what the controls were but Pie was smart and pulled up the tutorial lmao

After 3pm, they had a prize gacha system in place where you had to play either a full session Taikou no Tatsujin or Muse Dash and you would get a gacha card upon doing so. You would then line up and roll for two coloured marbles from this white dispenser. The colour determines what type of prize you can choose from.

Yellow was the best one.

Although by the time we got there, most of the cool prizes were gone. They had a Lumine and Aether plushie, I would have so loved to have gotten one of them. But alas.

I only got to choose one prize, while Pie got to choose two.

I got this Haru Okumura from Persona 5 clear card hehe that I stuck up on my wall. Pie got a Marth amiibo and a Yusuke Kitagawa from Persona 5 clear file.

We also walked through all the different stalls that were present! We saw a stand that had retro games, and Pie managed to snag the Ocarina of Time 3D for the 3DS for only $40, which is such a steal! I'm glad he was able to be reunited once again with the game.

Pie and I have this tradition where we each buy each other a print (only one, mind you) while at a convention/festival/wherever there is a print, and that’s what we did!

We went to the main artist alley and spilt up.

Pie got me a Kafka print (thank youuuu, I love it) and I got Pie a Kazuha print!

As soon as I saw it, I knew it was perfect. And it was even more fitting since it was Kazuha’s birthday too! ٩( ᐛ )و

Here is us in our pretty Yukata!

I chose this lovely blue pattern with flowers that caught my eye from the moment I saw it. And I chose well, it looks so good!

I felt so cool in it.

The original hair clip I wanted to use kept falling off my head, I felt bad for the person helping me get dressed aha

And then my hair was literally in the way the whole time, next time I'll tie it up. I did actually bring a hair tie but I forgot about it, welp aha

I'm glad I had this opportunity to do so!

Who knows when I’ll have another opportunity like this (unless I go to Japan….one day I’ll go!)

Food!

There was a lot of Japanese food there as expected from a festival such as this one! We tried this Japanese cheesecake which was really nice. Reminded me of something my grandma would make.

The daifuku was a bit too sweet for us both, although it wasn't bad! We got three different flavours: Mango, Strawberry and Matcha.

Much more squishy than I assumed it would be. I liked the mango one the most, I made a "mmh!" sound because I was so surprised at how mango it was and Pie laughed at me.

I can't understand what Pie meant when he says matcha tastes like a tree, I couldn't taste anything I swear lol

I was sitting there, chewing my heart out but the matcha flavour never came...I think my sense of taste was gone that time...

(i forgot to take a photo of what I ate i'm sorry)

We went to a maid café! It was our first time at any sort of maid café. The maids were very pretty and so kind! I ordered a Matcha Custard Puff and Pie ordered a Pumpkin Mini Loaf, which you can see above!

When I received my order by a lovely maid, I was asked if I wanted my food blessed by them. And of course I said yes!

Gotta go all in after all.

We did this little blessing sequence together and it was actually pretty fun! I managed to say everything properly, I thought I messed it up at the end but I did it!!

The food was pretty good. Blessing worked! The matcha custard was really nice. Even Pie, who doesn't like matcha liked it.

Blessings are powerful.

AnimeGO ended at 6pm, and we were about to head home. It felt sort of unfinished to me, like it didn't truly feel like the end. I didn't want to leave so quickly and so suddenly.

I still wanted to do more.

While I was waiting for my train to arrive, Pie suggested we should go out to the bridge that's outside of the station to kill some time. We walked across a bit of it, and we saw that there was a different festival going on below.

For context, AnimeGO was part of a bigger festival called OzAsia that's been running for the past two weeks I believe. That's the one we saw going on below.

Pie and I saw this other festival from the time we got to AnimeGO earlier in the day, but we assumed that we had to pay to go to that one so we took no heed of it aside from commenting it looked cool.

But that's when I spotted a large sign that said "Free Entry" from the bridge and I was like...we should go there. It was free and we were literally right there. It was still light out!

I never did tell my mum when I was heading home anyway. So it was all finee.

And we did go! It's sort of our thing, doing things rather spontaneously haha

It was the Lucky Dumpling Festival, filled with stalls of food you could buy and a stage with performances! It was really cool.

We saw a stall that sold Takoyaki, which was actually the same stall we bought Karaage Chicken from AVCon!

We missed out last time, so we couldn't miss this chance this time. Pie and I bought one to share, since it was a bit expensive and we weren't sure how much we would like it either.

We had to wait like 20-30 minutes. In the meantime, on the stage arrived three idols.

They started to sing.

And the first song they sang was Saijoukyuu Paradox (最上級ぱらどっくす), Idol Time Pripara's second opening.

When I heard it, I was like "WHATTTTT".

I freaked the heck out, I literally never thought I would ever hear this song in a random festival. I love Pripara, and so to hear this song made me so so SO happy.

Pie can attest to that.

I did not catch nor their names or unit name after the song ended aha

We were sorta far from the stage to hear it properly. But they looked so cool! I loved their outfits. I loved the fact they sang that song like aaaaaaa

And so I stanned these idols who I had no idea what their names were lmao

Our Takoyaki was ready after a while, and we looked for a seat...which was rather hard. There were no seats at all, and we were going to use a random table I saw that we would have to stand at or sit on the grass.

That was until we walked through the front area where the stage was, which had loads of benches.

And lo and behold, there was an empty bench I spotted. Right near the stage. I literally pointed to it aggressively and sprinted to it, so no one could take it. It was ours!

Takoyaki was really good. Like wow! I wished I had more of it then. I am so buying it next time it is available somewhere. So warm…

Of course I am a failure when eating so my Takoyaki balls were falling apart aha ( ´_ゝ`)

We ate it while watching the idols perform various songs and it was so much fun!

There was death metal screaming and it was incredible. The talent.

Such awesome idols. (*≧∀≦*)

Pie and I learnt that we could actually meet them and buy merch from them after the performance.

And of course we did! We were again there already and it’s not everyday you meet idols!

At this point I learnt they were called A-Muse Project, and there was usually 6 members but there were only three here today. It was their first time in Adelaide in fact! They're from Brisbane!

They were so nice and so kind! It was hard to hear them because we were right next to the stage and the next performance was on. And the wind was freezing by the time we managed to talk to them, I was so cold.

Was worth it. Anything for idols lol

We got these little group Cheki with them for $15 and they signed it too! I've never done anything like this before, but it was a lot of fun!

There were also penlights on sale for about $40, which was a bit too much for us so we passed on them.

We didn’t want the signatures to smudge so we just held them carefully for a really long time to make sure (even if we checked they were dry) lol

It now felt like the day was complete. I'm glad we did go to this festival as well!

It’s my first Polaroid I’ve ever gotten and I stuck it up on my wall hehe

We saw many cool cosplayers too, and we vow to cosplay next time we go because it felt sort of like a missed opportunity.

We didn’t get any photos with any of them because it’s honestly rather awkward asking people randomly “hey, can I take a photo?” while not in cosplay aha（´-`）.｡oO

But I did stare in awe.

There was this maid Xiao that we kept seeing everywhere, quite literally. We saw them at AnimeGO and at the Little Dumpling Festival.

We joked that if we called Xiao’s name, they'll come lol

There was a really cute March and such a cool Stelle! And a really cool Dottore that kept eluding me and disappearing randomly, it was rather incredible and creepy at the same time lol

There was also this Flandre Scarlet cosplayer which I absolutely loved. I watched them play Taikou no Tatsujin while waiting in line for the game.

I want to do that one day too, do that cosplay and then play Bad Apple lol

Point is, a lot of cool cosplay.

This place is literally like paradise for someone like me. I love anime, manga and gaming! People are so nice at conventions, I love the atmosphere and simply, I'll never get enough of it all.

We did so many things. It was such a fun day, and I won’t forget about it for a long time.

Thank you for reading!

what i think the straw hats favorite nintendo switch game would be

luffy - kirbys dream buffet, he likes kirby bc he eats a lot and (kinda?) stretches to copy abilities, and this is is like mario kart but you eat to get fasterr, if not that then hed like ARMS, ehich is pretty mucha fighting game where everyone can extend their arms(when theyre playing as a group he HAS to be player one, o matter the game bc "hes the captain")

zoro - fitness boxing 2, he wouldnt play games all to often, more focused on training and napping, (although sometimes there are like group sleepover nights where they olay mario party) but if he can train while doing this hes fine

nami - captain toad: treasure tracker, need i explain??? you literally find treasure shes all over this shit. shes def the person to stop and get all the coins and literally tear up if she dies bc then you lose coins. she only spends money on the powerups thatll actually help her and if its a multiplayer game where u need another player to revive u then shed keep them all dead and would charge them for her help

usopp - idk he probably likes minecraft, its simple(ish) and he doesnt need to put himself in that much trouble if wants, he probably beats the game in creative and then shows chopper the end poem and is like "this was no challengs for a mighty warrior of the sea like myself!" and then they both cried to the poem

sanji - cooking mama, he thinks her recipes are pretty bad but he likes mama, probably unironically calls her a milf and got into a genuine depressive episode when he saw papa eat her food, zoro bullied him for getting upset about a fictional woman and he started screaming about how zoro "didn't see their chemistry", and "papa doesnt deserve her"

chopper - he doesnt have a favorite, he isnt very good and prefers watching others or playing with others, if he gets stuck robin helps him like that one picture of the family in the 90s where the mom is helping them beat mario or smthn. hes the type where when they play as a group hes scared to mess up so him and robin are are a team

robin - tetris, she likes trying to beat her high score, but she doesnt think too much about it. she probably only plays once in a blue moon, or when shes helping chopper, but for some reason shes really good despite like.. never playing

franky - dude probably makes his own games and his own gaming platform. he probably has updated everyones switches so they can take switch games, ds games, 3ds games, and the games he makes. most of his games are about cola and just say super over and over so hes the only one who actually plays them

brook - he is an avid rhythm game enthusiast!!! his favorite switch rhythm game is hatsune miku: project diva mega39's his fingers dont work on the touch screen (because theyre bones-) so he never uses it, and since hes old it took him like forever to understand it but he got there

jinbei - similar to brook, since hes old he doesnt rlly understand, however hes different bc he doesnt try to learn LMAO during slumber party nights where they play games as a group, hes the group mediator, hes just there to make sure everyone gets out aliven mvp imo). he probably uses youtube on his switch every now and then for the live videos for news, and it ended with him on part 257 on some kids shopkins story, and deep into the cookie swirl c lore (the next day he gave it back to nami and said "luffy will probably break his, use mine as a spare" but it was just bc he couldnt handle it any more)

[justgoji]

I decided to touch back on a part of my old story and redesign it, so that it would be more coherent, as it’s a pretty old part without much thought put into it (I also wanted to do this for fun). For now, I’ll refer to this as The Neostopian Realm. I imagined it as acting like a video game, where you control a character and do what video game characters do in video games.

There are three main factions in The Neostopian Realm, each serving as varying levels of difficulty from easy to hard. The Yellow Faction is the easiest section, and the first one you come across. It’s members are very forgiving, and are more so training you for your journey ahead rather than hunting you down. I can’t say the same for the Blue and Red Factions, with the Blue Faction going out of its way to retrieve you, and the Red Faction merely intending to kill you and/or use you for themselves. The Blue Faction is of medium difficulty, and will appear every now and then to engage you in either a battle rush, a chase sequence, or a little bit of both. The Red Faction is the hardest in difficulty, and each member in it is their own little boss fight, essentially acting as a boss rush.

The leaders of the three factions are none other than Hatsune Miku, Akita Neru, and Kasane Teto. Neru is neutral in nature, and always tells you to get back up when you fall down. Hatsune Miku is constantly on your tail, arranging ambushes to catch you in your tracks and retrieve you by force. Kasane Teto sometimes sees you as an opportunity to take down a foreign faction member, and other times sees you as a potential new recruit. Either way, she will always be watching you on your journey.

At this point in my life, Heron wasn’t the guy he is today, and back then he was smaller and played a bigger role. He is the main character in The Neostopian Realm, where this realm is the result of what his brain is simulating while he is in a coma (I will not elaborate further). In this realm, he is referred to as The Rouge, and is constantly evading capture, as he apparently ran away from the Blue Faction for unknown reasons. An alter ego acts as a guide for him, helping Heron to go to where he needs to be, and telling him what choices should be made. If you go to the pause menu, the alter ego will appear on the side, and either give you tips or chat with you.

At the time I made this part in my old story, I had just gotten into vocal synthesizers and had ZERO knowledge of the various voicebanks. By the time I had lost interest in expanding upon the world of The Neostopian Realm, I managed to include 5 vocaloids, but never got to adding fanloids and utaus aside from Neru and Teto. I didn’t really think about whether different factions should have different synths, and just added a vocaloid to each faction as I was the most familiar with them (not really saying much), and didn’t want any group to be lonely. The other vocaloids aside from Miku I included are Kagamine Len, Kagamine Rin, Oliver, KAITO, and VFlower. The Kagamine Twins and KAITO are members of the Blue Faction, being led by Miku to go after you. Oliver is a member of the Yellow Faction, taken in by Neru and serves as your buddy during your time in the first act. VFlower is a member of the Red Faction, and is essentially a bounty hunter, hunting you down with silver and lead lining. Let’s just assume there’s more characters in these factions that aren’t mentioned, because this blorbo tank feels severely under stocked.

And finally, I just want to say that this section of my old story is NOT CANON to the new story that I am currently with. It has no opportunity to exist in the new story, and it was already confusing and pointless enough in the old story, bringing up inconsistencies with characters and unanswered questions.

[thefloatingstone]

Today not only did I get my 2nd ever payment from Daddy G, proving that the first payment was NOT a fluke thanks to one video doing good, but I also got a comment saying "It's criminal that you don't have more views."

So this Youtube thing is going pretty ok, I think!

Although getting actual real world money from youtube still feels a bit like "???? IS THIS ALLOWED???"

[actualbird]

(I'm new to Tumblr so excuse my bad formatting or whatever idk)

yo so like I have a headcanon that Vyn is like impossibly good at rhythm games (like Hatsune Miku Tap Wonder or Bandori or Friday Night Funkin)

Senti★Mentality Member introduction pt.1 of 4

Adrien Agreste:

Age: 14

Gender: Genderfluid

Pronouns: Changes, but except for it/its/it's, any is fine

School: College Françoise Dupont

Class: Miss Bustier 's aka the Akuma Class

Shy, intelligent and naive, Adrien is a previously homeschooled student. He's learning new things and experiencing the world around him.

She is the sole creator of the Ballroom Sekai, and while it is confused to be a representation of where they comes from (wealth), it's true symbolism is that of a fairytale.

The Ballroom Sekai was created from Adrien's feeling of wanting at least one day of freedom, a day he could enjoy herself before she had to go back to the norm. They're Cinderella going to the ball.

When he first enters her SEKAI he's met by his SEKAI's version of Hatsune Miku and MEIKO. Where she finds a friend in Miku, they end up finding a maternal figure in MEIKO.

Adrien tends to hide in her SEKAI during times of distress and discomfort. Of the three remaining members of Senti★Mentality, Chloe is the first to enter his SEKAI, being granted access to it by them shortly after the incident where she helped him and LB defeat Malediktator. Kagami and Felix would be granted access later on. As the creator of the SEKAI, Adrien can also kick and lock his fellow unit members out, something she ends up doing later on in the story.

what other people want added to Minecraft: g u n s

what I want added to Minecraft

•Birds

-For multiple biomes, but mainly for the forests.

-Songbirds would add SO MUCH life to the otherwise quiet areas of the game

-Ravens and crows would be awesome and could use some of the parrot mimicking AI

-Cardinals in the snow biomes would bring a GORGEOUS pop of colour into the white atmosphere

-Seriously we need something to populate the sky, parrots do NOT fly like they should

-nests in trees, can find eggs in them

-doesn't really add a use but fun new feather types would be cool

•Owls

-technically still a bird but would go really well in covered rooftop forests and snow biomes

-we're already getting larger avians added in the form of vultures so why not more large birds?

•Mice and / or rats

-absolute precious babies

-sadly would go well with owls :(

-with cave update coming we need adorable rodents scurrying around

-lil bastards could make mouseholes inside of blocks

-will they be tameable? idk.

-adds the necessity for cheese

•Deer

-MOJANG this is a MUST, this is a NEED

-You literally have pigs, chickens, cows, and sheep spawning in forests what the fuck

-Deer with spotty baby fawns??? Yes

-Young bucks with different stages of antler growth? Yes

-Fawns frolicking in flower forests bc they feel safe

-Stripped wood appearing on trees where bucks scrape velvet off their antlers

-Being able to collect sets of antlers when they fall off periodically (would NOT be attainable by killing the deer, you have to wait for them to shed)

•Elk and Moose

-Same vein as deer

-Bigger, much bigger, neutral instead of passive, less shy

-Snowy biomes

-Better additions than fucking llamas tyvm

-Sidenote but savannahs could also really use some endangered deer-like species to help raise awareness for their status

•Squirrels

-Mojang plz

-Adds nuts to Minecraft ;)

-Black, grey, red, and mixed colour squirrels and breeding

-Brings life to forests like songbirds and deer

•Bears

-Mojang bby you literally already have a neutral bear in Minecraft why have you not reskinned it for grizzly/brown/black bears?

-Bear caves

-Hibernating mobs

-Brings more use to the beehives and bees, bears could be attracted to any area that has more than one bee hive with honey

•WOLVES AND DOGS

-They NEED the ocelots and cats update

-More wolf types (red, timber, snow, black, etc)

-Actual wolf packs (the AI would be difficult to program but the doges are worth it)

-Please let the howl at the moon, if foxes get to say ringdingding all night long wolves deserve to be allowed to howl

-More dog breeds (I know that there's no reason for domesticated dog breeds in Minecraft but ACTUALLY THERE IS)

-Hunting dogs like springers that can jump and run faster

-Foxhounds :D

-Most Important Goodest Boy: Herding dogs like collies and sheepdogs

-Herding dogs could be found in plains where cows and sheep spawn and create herds

-LET DOGS LAY DOWN FOR FUCKS SAKE

•Herding

-Instead of having to pen up and enclose your livestock you could form herds of cows and sheep

-Your Goodest Boi herding dog would protect them and move around with them when they graze

-Just soft peaceful minecraft tingz

•Salt licks

-Something SO SMALL but would make SO MUCH HAPPINESS

-Drawing new cows into your herd by putting up a salt lick

-I'm soft

-I guess salt would be a new ore???

•Jellyfish

-Idk if y'all know this but the glow squid is a bad idea

-Dream buddy you fucked up, please use your influence to get in contact with Mojang and have them redo the vote. People would have so much regained respect for you if you tried to fix your mistake.

-we have salt in this list

-popcorn. That is all.

And finally

•Leeks

-mostly a joke but would be a cool crop

-100% a reference to Hatsune Miku the creator of Minecraft

DISCLAIMER: I recognize that mobs are added to Minecraft to serve a purpose within the game and that many of these mobs would be better in mods and such, but I also feel like many of these suggestions would really bring so much more life to parts of the game that really need it. Even if they don't serve a huge purpose, they would still be really amazing additions imo.

I would love to see the ideas and suggestions that other people have for what they want added to Minecraft, please TAG ME if you make a post like this, I wanna hear and read it!

[wizardyke]

mother 3 hcs!

- lucas & claus r japanese/german! flint is german, hinawa is japanese

- kumatora is also mixed but im not sure what

- duster feels like. eastern europe ish

- kumatora is both trans masc and trans fem. what this means is very vague

- psi feels like when your leg falls asleep. that TV static kinda feeling

- post ts lucas is 14, kumatora is 18-19 and duster is 40 something.

- during the timeskip, lucas spent a lot of his time at the beach and cliffsides and tried to make friends with nana, but couldn't keep the conversation going for too long.

- lucas also got good at cooking! partially out of needing something to do and partially because hinawa couldn't make food for them anymore

- claus can't read that well

- sometimes in hot springs they don't even bother taking their clothes off and continue going into battle sopping wet

- between meeting mixy and fighting the barrier trio, kumatora duster and lucas sit down and discuss what they saw when they were tripping out

- despite the hatred of happy boxes (which we can pressume is a stand in for modern tech) i feel like lucas would really like video games. he'd enjoy playing his own games

- theres a feeling you get when you get close to needles. its as if gravity is pulling you down/towards it. it goes away when the needles are pulled

- hatsune miku appears in new pork city

- lucas often has really shitty dreams, so now boney sleeps near him almost all times. duster and kumatora are made aware of this one night and make sure lucas falls asleep first

- kumatora dated another waitress during her time at club titiboo, ended on neutral terms not long before lucas showed up

- lucas couldn't bring himself to give away claus' clothes even when there were kids in tazmilly who needed them (and expected them, since at the time they were a self sufficient village)

- he had no problems giving away his own though

- hinawa mentioned something about wanting to be buried where her grave is, in that morbid "when i die" way mothers sometimes do

[OM!] Demon Brothers + Hobbies 🏊

Lucifer

what free time

when he does somehow peel himself off of work, he enjoys ballroom dancing

i can just imagine him putting on a vinyl song, holding up his arms and doing the steps to the dance (1, 2, 3... 1, 2, 3) and god forbid someone tries to come in during this time because he’d be too embarrassed to be lenient on their punishment

i imagine he’s super into learning other couple dances too like tango and salsa, so when you get together with him count on being his partner!

i bet he also loves teaching other people things-- like genuinely, considering he is the oldest of the seven (his brothers just test him LOL)

incredibly patient when showing you the steps, taking pride in your improvement and growing warm at the thought of you being able to dance with him at the next chance you get

and his weakness???? online shopping on akuzon 

which, when you find out, makes him extremely embarrassed and depending on whether you have the same past time-- you may or may not buy everything on akuzon

on his home screen interaction dialogue, he says something along the lines of “Akuzon is too convenient... it’s easy to buy a lot of things” while blushing

so I’m thinking sometimes when he does take a breather from his workload, he scrolls on akuzon just browsing for things because it’s quick

and ends up putting like 5 things into the cart  that he doesn’t really need

doesn’t always follow through and buy everything, but he definitely has moments where he impulse buys and it’s gone to bite him in the butt when packages arrive in droves and his brothers are like ??? why are there so many things

Mammon

loves music-- both listening and making it!

likes making his own mixtapes and playlists

and when he gets to share it with you, he’s so nervous; but the giddy happiness he feels when you tell him that it’s good is SO worth the wait and time he puts into his music

he’d be happy just having his mixtapes and music to himself but being able to share it with someone makes it a lot sweeter

definitely makes playlists for and about you because sometimes the feelings he can’t put into words he can tell you through music

idk if he has a recording studio in his room, but i think it’d be pretty fitting if there was

probably gets into composing his music, rapping mayhaps??

at some point likes to DJ as well, though he’s not too good as it rn, but he definitely loooooves playing with the sound effects and tracks

all of these things are him being able to express himself-- put a twist on something that already exists or creating something on his own

it gives him a sense of freedom: to express himself and to do whatever he wants as he pleases

pretty well-rounded when it comes to playing instruments

when he puts his mind to it, he can probably learn anything

most likely already knows how to play the guitar and the drums

has a pretty good voice too tbh

Leviathan

swimming!!

he may be a shut-in, but ya boy has ocean decor, can control sea creatures, so it’s only natural he can swim and swim well

doesn’t do it as often since he prefers watching anime/playing games loads more, but he it’s definitely something he enjoys since it feels like his natural place to be 

considering his dream is to be a professional gamer, it’s not far off to say that he finds it his hobby to start off small and be a youtuber, probably posting reviews of games he’s played or even writing out walk-throughs online

actually loves going to concerts and cons

if he was a fan of hatsune miku you BET he’d want to go to her first live concert with her life-sized hologram, waving the glowsticks in unison with the crowd

would definitely go all four days of Anime Expo where he would be SO happy surrounded by people who can love the same things he does with the same passion

loves creating cosplay to go to these cons by hand; impeccable detail and intense dedication into the craft that shows his love for whatever he’s making

kinda shy about wearing it, but if you’re down to wear any of his costumes, he’d absolutely die happy

it’s just too much love for him to handle in one sitting 

and ofc, hobbies include board games, games, DND, all those!!

Satan

asides from reading, loves traveling when he can whenever he can

he invites you out to places because he enjoys discovering new things and experiencing new things and traveling is the perfect way to do all of that all the time

he’d enjoy hiking too-- on trails, through the wilderness, among the wild; just give him a backpack, an explorers hat, maybe a walking stick (just like the ones in the movies) and he’s on his way!

loves going hiking with you because he likes the way your face lights up at new scenery or the wonders of the world

likes that he can share this enjoyment and excitement of discovery with you because it feels like he’s sharing a little bit of himself too

indoor activity is snuggling in the covers and having movie marathons! and now that he has you and all your movies on DVD (lol) he can now enjoy so much more things

and when he finds out about Netflix, he is NOT sleeping for DAYS

“Satan... did you sleep last night?”

“couldn’t. the new season of How to Get Away with Murder came out.”

SLAM POETRY

doesn’t think he’s very good, but definitely likes writing down in his journal and even some scattered words that form a bit of poetry sometimes

really really shy about sharing it, but if you coax him a little, he’d be willing to show you (though you’ll have a hard time convincing him to show you poetry he wrote about you)

people have said, and I agree, cat cafe is definitely something he’d seek out and enjoy; literal dream come true

a house of cats that lucifer can’t ban him from LMAO

Asmodeus

has a very creative mind and deft hands meant for craft (among other things ahem)

as a fashionable person and a trendsetter, he’d love making his own jewelry and clothes, picking out the beads and metalware for the earrings or bracelets and feeling out the cloth and stitches for his outfits

if levi IS into making cosplay, it’d be such a nice way for them to bond together since Levi is pretty good with picking out material too

i like to imagine he enjoys making jewelry for his brothers too:

a stud earring for mammon, maybe convincing him to explore other options and wear other jewelry too

giving his brothers the options of clip on earrings if they wanted to try something temporary, gives satan a golden bracelet, lucifer a silver ring etc

suuuuuper supportive of you if you wanted any type of piercings and would absolutely love it if you wore his jewelry

god he would bedazzle you in all his jewelry and clothes if he could

another hobby is doing yoga!!

good for the body and soul uwu

definitely gives a good reason for any of his flexibility, or maybe it’s because he’s naturally flexible that yoga is calming for him

also loves to invite you to do yoga with him

you’d definitely get a bit steamy doing certain positions with him, but MOST of the time, he does encourage you to stretch, relax, and strengthen your body

Beelzebub

so athletic he could probably play every sport

i agree with the masses: he’d DEFINITELY be good at hockey

basketball too (just imagine Kagami from Kuroko no Basuke)

you know what they say about big hands

big, strong hands, good for crafting that involves a little more strength, but considering he’s a pretty tender and patient guy, is great at sculpting with clay, which extends to pottery as well

just imagine him sitting near a kiln, spinning the clay and using his hands to shape the curve and notches of a pot

considering how many plates and bowls he’s probably eaten, it makes for a good way to replace them HAHA

good at crafting with glass too considering it requires steady hands and strength to spin glass evenly

enjoys a lot of arts and crafts and loves giving them as gifts, especially if they’re made from his own hands

one of the main reasons why he started and likes doing these as a hobby actually

adores the look on you face when you created a glass terrarium for your plants or created glass ornaments dyed with your favorite colors

would definitely be the type of person to put his hands on yours as he teaches you how to shape the clay and have plenty of fun with you watching you try to make glass ornaments with or without success

Belphegor

during his waking hours, he loves to study the stars

loved to watch them in the human world, but without a night sky, he’s content with looking up for constellations in books from the library

if you buy him the cute lamp that lights stars onto the ceiling, he’ll find you so endearing because he’d enjoy lying in bed with you and just looking up at the lights and being in each other’s arms-- imagining the day he gets to do this with you for real, on a picnic blanket, looking up at the moon and stars

i imagine he’d like to doodle too

i say MAINLY doodles because they’re easier like drawing chibis or whatever thinks is amusing and lowkey keeps him awake (though Lucifer doesn’t like it when he draws on the desks)

does sometimes go all out and draw amazingly well, whenever the mood strikes him

when you ask him, he jokingly says you’re his muse; but honestly wouldn’t put it past him to have drawn a portrait of you, awake or asleep, at some point

surprisingly good at sewing-- or at the very least mending rips and tears

i feel like beel has a lot of ripped shirts (...from being, yknow, ripped) so he’s gotten pretty good at simple stitches, which eventually evolved into something more

didn’t start off as a hobby but he did eventually find it soothing to sew and embroider

levi and asmodeus adore his skills and he grumbles, but doesn’t ever say ‘no’ to them when they ask for his help

[introvertsareimportant]

the types as I know them irl, by an esfj

estj (PB/S(C)):

 -my mom!

-obssessed with things “that work”. I own so many pretty shiny things that have no actual use and are only taking up space, and she has a lot of opinions about that.

-super smart. Not knowledge smart, but you could give her a riddle and she’d ask all the right quesitons and get the correct answer. It’s a superpower.

-loves to guess what happens next in TV shows, is usually always right

-not pushy at all, lets her kids breathe, lets us manage our stuff on our own (where do all these bossy estj stereotypes come from?)

-good at talking

-loves children

isfj (SB/C(P))

-my dad!

-has a Phd in molecular biology

-knows so much about the randomest of topics (sea creatures, history, chinese literature, tech news, recently developed technology)

-”go ask ur mom”

-i like making fun of him lol

-likes building models of anime characters from scratch, like he would cut the pieces himself and spray paint it and polish it it’s fascinating

intp (SC/P(B))

-little brother

-smart but doesn’t do that well academically

- has trouble controlling his emotions, it’s a legitimate problem in his life

-takes jokes too literally

-kind bean but is ruthless when it comes to mario kart

-really similar to my dad in terms of personality

-sometimes we would just sit in the living room together. He’s playing his video games, I’m reading my book, when it gets to the boring part i look up and watch him play and after a while he hands me a controller and beats my ass in the game and i go back to reading and he keeps playing, repeat until mom says its dinnertime.

-we have our own “eye contact language” lol it’s really beautiful

infp:

-best friend!!!!

-not at all antisocial, but acts super cringey and weird when she talks about people (“Everyone-is-out-to-get-me syndrome” that is shared by all IxxPs and ExxJs)

-athletic

-funny as hell

-stressed about the “social norms” (demon Te) and overthinks courtesies and stuff like that when she talks to older people

-where does the stereotype of infps being soft smol beans come from? she’s super tough and has a “don’t fuck with me” attitude going for her 

-likes twilight unironically

infj:

-just kind of... there (she fits the stereotype of intuitives just being in their head all the time. she doesn’t really do anything)

-doesn’t take part in a lot of extreacurricular activities

-likes complaining. a lot.

-when she laughs it’s super funny. you could just say something to her like “i don’t like turtles” and she’d laugh even harder

-no problem insulting people and making fun of them and then turn around and praise them (enfjs are jealous)

esfj:

-we’re not that friendly despite being the same type

-really mature tho, i said something mean to him a while ago and he’s still really eager to at least get along 

-i don’t really want to give in to sterotypes here but he has tons of friends

-likes cringey deep posts he found on pinterest

-super athletic

-loud laugh

-really funny, his joke making skills are better than some entps’

another esfj:

-i think she’s my exact type (esfj BS/C(P))

-super introverted (yeah they exist)

-really awkward with people (it’s a thing with esfjs!!! i think when we’re hyper aware of other people’s reactions to us it makes us act kind of unnatural? kind of like when you’re walking in front of your crush and you want to walk normal but then you end up flailing you arms around and laughing too obnoxiously)

- “i hate people” *goes on and obssess about every one of their most trivial opinions* 

-super defensive about her opinions, takes them really personally even when it’s only for a school essay (i get it as a fellow esfj)

-tries really hard to be funny, ends up being an accidental asshole and insulting everyone

estp

-big science nerd

-chill

-we talk on a daily basis

-sends me posts about hatsune miku

-loves having inside jokes with his friends

-small dick energy but it’s ok

entp

-other best friend

-her laughter is funnier than the joke

-notices a lot of little things

-math god

-shares 1 braincell with my infp friend

-loves kdramas and kpop

-can be a (playful) meanie to you then switch to people pleaser nice mode within ten seconds  it’s really confusing (i think all IxxJs and ExxPs have that superpower)

istj

-has borderline ocd and she knows it

-deadpan delivery of her jokes

-good at archery

-sometimes we’d video call each other and study in silence together cause her attitude really motivates me

-i love sharing silences with her, you don’t have to yak about bullshit to be comfortable

-soft uwu girl

-100 percent made of Queen Material
