[sandrockers]

Welp. It's been a while so Imma just post some MP sprites (imma post Young Logan again lol)

are some of these a little cursed? maybe.

also too bad I couldn't find B3 sprite in the data (at least it's in the Artbook) but his model was there.

[playandchill]

I saw this t-shirt and i thought about Rian

(builder was found sick)

I BELIEVE JENSEN WILL BE ONE OF THE FIRST PEOPLE TO NOTICE THAT BUILDER IS MISSING

I just thought it would be funny

[joepossum]

Jensen was so happy when he heard that Juniper likes trains and Juniper likes Jensen too since he reminds her of her Grandpa

[sandrockianblues]

Heyyy you have any hcs about Andy? Esp with the builder and/or Logan? Always love readin ur hcs btw :3c

Andy? You mean my child? The one I kidnapped expressed adopted without the paperwork? My lil ray of sassy sunshine, Andy? Bold of you to assume I would waste my time creating some headcan-

🦸🏼‍♂️Andy🦸🏼‍♂️

-what a smart adorable little cookie. I mean, look at his adorable freckles and tired eyes!

-this isn’t his first life. You can just tell by how he views the world and dispels random bits of wisdom that no preteen should be capable of doing.

-he’s a big lover of animals and treats most with kindness if they’re friendly and passive. Those that aren’t and that he can just refer to as monsters or mutants or beasts? He still likes to observe them from a safe distance

-you’d think his favorite monster would be a rockyenaroll or a boxing Jack, but nope. It’s a pensky and he’ll take that secret to his grave.

-fastest little thing you’ll ever witness if you manage to not blink. He’s impossible to catch up to or wrangle and he knows it too. He gives Jasmine a run for her money. Because of it, they always have random little races and make bets on them.

-he’s very loyal to Logan and Haru, especially Logan. How can he not be? They’re his dads! He never expected for there to be more room in his heart and life for another person.

-oh but hey, that builder. Hm.

-even after being such a little shit to them in the beginning, he can’t deny that they still treat him with a certain kindness he’s been missing from someone like them.

-ok ok, so what if he kidnapped expressed adopted another parental unit? What if he’s trying to push them towards Logan? What if he’s secretly planning the wedding between the two and seeking covert help for it? Like, mind your own business pls and thanks

-he’s getting better with his manners but sometimes forgets them in his excitement or in a moment of distraction. But he makes up for it when he has his sudden bursts of recollection like: “can you help me tie this?” And soon after you begin- “dang, I forgot to say please. Can you please help me tie this?” Orrr you give him something and he takes off after maybe shouting “awesome!” Or “you’re the best!”, and that’s fine. He’s a kid. But then he’ll either reappear just as fast (kid is like the Flash, remember) or he’ll stop by your door hours later and like “I forgot to say thank you earlier. Sorry ‘bout that. Thanks for earlier!”

-big big big fan of affection from the adults he trusts the most. As soon as he realizes the builder cares for him and loves him? He doesn’t care how tall or old he is even as time progresses, he’ll go from hugging their hips and pressing his cheek to their waist at a fireside meeting, to hanging off them when he’s as tall as Logan, he’ll hang off them.

-not this boy being a long and threatening shadow and- oh. No. It’s just him draping himself across the builder’s back and complaining about his homework again.

-once he realizes how human Logan is and vulnerable at times, he tries to read the man better and keep him from any pain. Even at a young age. He does whatever he can to prevent Logan from enduring any more hurt than before.

-Qi actually likes him! Everyone including the two themselves are surprised about it. Qi was ready to talk this kid’s ear off as a lesson for knocking on his lab’s doors when Andy suddenly told him he wanted to know his thoughts on space exploration for a paper he was writing. Kid actually nabbed the scientist’s heart and now he’s got someone to obsess over space and the stars with. Qi won’t admit it, but he always has time for Andy even when he’s busy.

-family dinners are a must!!! Everyone’s gotta be there. The builder, Logan, Haru, Nemo, grandma Vivi, Rambo, Jasmine. It makes Andy happy seeing some of his found family together.

-he becomes the town’s errand boy for a few years and he actually enjoys it. It keeps him active, healthy, in shape, and expends the energy that used to drive him up a wall! He doesn’t mind running here and there. But he does believe in breaks! They’re important and he’ll chew a person a new one if they tell him to take his break later.

-please please please let the builder ask Andy to help with some commissions. He’s a smart kid! He knows how to read instructions! Lmao what is this? Swedish IKEA furniture? He’s got an active mind and loves when his hard work and efforts are recognized. Plus, he loves the builder and wants to help them. It’s literally a win in his book.

-Jensen thinks Andy likes trains, but really, Andy is just curious about the mechanics and inner workings of them. He won’t break his heart tho so

-Andy often finds himself lounging on a work table of the builder’s when he’s got a free moment and doesn’t have any responsibilities to get to.

-the builder’s home is a second home for Andy. If allowed to come at any time, any day, he’ll take them up on the offer. Bonus points if Nemo has been adopted by the builder too.

-Andy’s got his own throw blanket in their living room. His own toothbrush if he spends the night. His favorite spot to sit. His own books at the bottom of their book shelf. Even his own preferred dishes and silverware.

-Andy’s got a great intelligence and is made for activity and being tasked with things, but for the life of him, he cannot focus on homework if he doesn’t have the right conditions and hasn’t expelled his energy. The builder has gotten used to unlocking their door to find Andy sitting on the floor with his throw blanket over his shoulders, Nemo in his lap, and the child hunched over the coffee table with homework spread across the surface. This even carries on when he gets older.

-Andy likes to let Logan, Haru and the builder know he needs them, even when he doesn’t. So sometimes he’ll request their help with things he’s capable of doing by himself. Or he’ll take on more challenging tasks and ask them for assistance if he knows they can do it. It’s his wordless gesture that he sees their value and reminds them of their importance in his life.

-Andy demands Haru be made a teacher for math and science. He doesn’t have anything against his current one, but the boy has lived with Haru long enough to know how he works and what he has to offer for Andy’s education.

-the builder is the one Andy goes to when he wants to confide in someone. Logan doesn’t really mind it considering he’s the more apparent father figure in his life and he knows how Andy sees him, but he also knows how hard it is to be emotional at times and the builder is someone both of them can trust to take care of his feelings and insecurities.

-if Logan and the builder are together,

-Logan’s gotta accept the fact Andy really loves affection from his S/O, especially if they’re f!builder because of that missing maternal bond he lacks and they make up for. He’s fine with it, just jealous bc now he’s gotta sit on the opposite end of the couch when the two of them are all the way over there, cuddled and bonding. He’s fine.

-it really feels like a family with both his express adoptive parents under one roof with him and their pet (he’ll riot if it’s not Nemo. Literally.) Nothing makes him happier than having them together

-Andy won’t call Logan or the builder “dad” and “mom”- though, he has slipped before and did so, but that’s a story for another time. But he views them as such and treats them like they are. To strangers, he’ll refer to the two of them as his parents or mother/father. He’ll brag about them too because how many other kids can say their dad was an infamous bandit? Or that their parent saved a dying town? That’s right. No one. He’s literally the coolest kid around.

-lmao but if Andy doesn’t get his way with Logan or the builder, he’ll sassily go “whatever, I’ll just ask my other dad.” Before heading to go see Haru

-it never fails to amuse Andy when Logan tries to help his builder in his free time with their commissions only to end up breaking a part they needed because of his brute strength or it just being too tiny in his hands. The boy will be in tears and carve another notch (with builder’s permission) into the side of their work table for amount of times Logan has accidentally destroyed something.

-Andy loves walking Nemo around town to get the pup’s exercise in. He especially loves it when Logan decides to join him and how they could talk about everything and nothing until it’s time to head back.

-and the builder is always there too, waiting for them both with more love and adoration in their eyes than they both think they’re worth.

Ancient Games - Chapter 2 - Spijder - My Time At Sandrock (Video Game) [Archive of Our Own]

The second chapter. Mosaic makes an unsettling discovery that disturbs more than just her own evening.

Some quick notes about MTaS Multiplayer

Don't have any pics yet, but here's what I've noticed:

Mi-an's area is mostly empty of equipment. Mason is still there (unable to be befriended still) but we have his workshop area and I have not found where he's supposedly building things.

Missing places: Eufala Salvage (fixed in an early co-op mission), the barn on the Wandering Y Ranch, the entire train station and about half the tracks, the bridge over to the Gecko Ruins area (for some reason our character is able to get to Sandrock from there, have no clue why), the apartments where a bunch of characters live, part of the outside of the Blue Moon Saloon (also another early mission), Construction Junction, the barber shop, By The Stairs, Amirah's pottery shop, the museum, the Golden Goose, Fang's place, the bridge between town and the tracks, the water tower, and the shooting range outside the Civil Corps.

The stage outside the Blue Moon exists but currently Matilda is holding her Tuesday-Thursday sermons at the steps of City Hall for some reason.

Missing characters so far: All of Rocky's staff (Pebbles exist so I presume Krystal does too - I just haven't seen her), Amirah, Arvio, Grace, Jensen, Pablo, Pen (admittedly I could have just missed him), and Ernest. On the other hand, Trudy is there from the beginning, as is Banjo and Meerkat. From one of the missions, it looks like we get Nia permanently in Multiplayer (as opposed to single/solo player where she only shows up for 3 days currently).

Main missions take a backseat to co-op missions (I've seen 2, not counting the beginner missions - one where Elsie straight out gives you a fish trap, and one where Trudy hires you on as essentially assistant mayor). You can't take a solo commission until you're level 15. You gain knowledge points the same time at level 5.

I was a bit off on that last one. The missions with the orange label that the singleplayer game uses are solo missions in multiplayer. You get a few solo missions but everything else is co-op until you're player level 15 where you can take solo commissions.

The tutorial is, interestingly, the same stuff more or less as the Portia tutorial - a pickhammer, an axe, and a furnace, interrupted with a tutorial on how to use the commissions board.

The abandoned ruins for Multiplayer is The Breach (just like it was in the previous open multiplayer). You do have to dig it out before you use it. It's possible to enter the Breach with multiple characters or solo, but apparently if you enter the multiplayer version you get tin two levels higher up in the mines than solo, where you get tin at the same level (3) as the solo game. The Breach uses a lot of the same structure as the Eufala Salvage Abandoned Ruins, but mixed up a bit so don't depend on your knowledge of that place for this version.

You can build things buildings without having Construction Junction up and going. (See note below about controllers.)

You gain rep points for talking to people as well as building things. This makes sense. You're also very far behind in the rankings so you'll want to balance talking out with building.

Your ranking for what you can do is based on your workshop level, not your personal level.

You gain access to some things by leveling up your workshop, but for others you'll still need to visit Qi's machine.

I was a bit vague on the above - as you gain workshop levels, you gain the ability to research certain things - so for example, you don't immediately have access to the dew collector blueprint. You still have to use data discs to have Qi research the devices.

Buying blueprints costs workshop points, not gols, at the Commerce Guild. And those blueprints include bronze bars, for some reason. (Interestingly enough, not the feather duster, which is either available from the beginning or just shows up at some point at your workstation.)

Hugo sells the bronze axe and pickaxe, simple weapons, blueprints for weapons (I think they cost gols rather than the workshop points), and for all of us who hate that stupid bronze blade, yes, he sells those.

You can get these neat things that allow you to get NPCs to cooperate on... something. Trudy gives you one free, and the rest can be bought with reputation points at City Hall. ETA: You use these coupons to get these NPCs to give you something related to your specialty for a certain period of time.

Knowledge points are like single player, but you're not restricted to whatever skill you were using. So no matter if you've been fighting monsters, carving out ruins, or doing co-op missions, you can apply the point to anything - you can gain combat skill, for example, for just being good at digging things out. ETA: In the multiplayer version, you gain knowledge points like you did in Portia - 1 per level.

Note to Steam Deck users/controller users: While most of the game works just fine on controller (I've been running it with no problem on Steam Deck), the building placement gives you an error message if you try to use a controller. So instead of trying to place a building on Steam Deck extremely clumsily, you cannot place it at all.

Pathea is aware of the popularity of Sandrock on Steam Deck and is working on controller support for the multiplayer. (Hopefully it'll get fixed on singleplayer too, I have custom controls for this kind of thing but it's still annoying.)

Being in the mtas fandom be like "sees drawing of cute builder" "sees Pen content (literally there is so much pen content in the tumblr mtas tags, I wasn't even looking for Pen content in particular, he seems rather popular here) "sees understandable rage about higher subway ride prices' "sees Logan getting spanked" "sees a picture of a subway" "sees fanfic I'll eventually read when my head is not in the gutter" "sees a meet the artist post" "sees another cute builder"

Luckily as someone who loves trains and subways I don't mind at all and a meet the artist meme sounds really fun to do. But also, it's really funny how tumblr just decided that mtas, mta (meet the artist and Metropolitan Transportation Authority) are now all lumped together.

Ngl, when I first read this some part of my brain understood the first half but it wasn't clicking with the forefront of my brain. Then it all hit me, like a train, at once. Which, tbh, it way funnier to me.

Tumblr is out here doing its weird shit like always and we're only here for the ride, let's be real. Now I'm just imagining a meet the artist feature except it's Pen bench pressing the only train that comes through Sandrock. Jensen screaming in the background.

Daysean St. Lawrence 

• 16 • straight • African American • Brooklyn • Gemini Daysean was born in Brooklyn and lives with his father, an MTA contractor, his mother, a paralegal and his older brother who attends school with him. When he was growing up, he was overweight and was bullied all throughout elementary school because of it. In middle school, he learned to combat the bullying with humor, fighting against his bullies with jokes and clever insults. He also started taking dance classes after school to become popular with the girls. He joined an afterschool sports team and trained with his dad on the weekends. He dropped over 30 lbs in fat and gained back most of that in muscle. In high school, he joined the football team and made quarterback by his junior year. His skills on the field were so impressive that he was scouted by multiple prestigious college football teams. Although destined to become a pro player, his love life makes him question what he really wants to do in life. 

Along with bullying, Daysean was also often the target of racism growing

When Daysean's older brother came out to him and started becoming a bullying target himself, Daysean promised to have his back.

Daysean's favorite football player is Colin Kaepernick.

Daysean: ‘Sup, Tori!

Tori: Hey! What’s up?

Daysean: Not much. Been trainin’ everyday but I need to take a break. Where’s Amaya? She ain’t witchu?

Tori: No, she got a summer job and she’s working. I haven’t seen her since school ended.

Daysean: That sucks.

Tori: Yeah. I think this is the first summer we’ve had where we weren’t with each other 24/7. 

Daysean: You guys sound mad close, like you’re sisters or somethin.’

Tori: Yeah, she’s been looking out for me since I first met her. We do everything together.

Daysean: That’s dope. She’s a really good friend. So you ain’t got nobody else to hang out with?

Tori: Well, I wanted to hang out with Christina and Cassie but ever since the whole cat-fishing thing, we’re not really supposed to talk to each other. 

Daysean: That’s messed up, yo. Tony got y’all fucked up and nothin’ happened to him. 

Tori: Well, we did trick him into sending his dick picks to the whole school.

Daysean: That’s not what I meant. I mean like he gets to slut around and break girls’ hearts and he don’t get no punishment. Y’all did the right thing. I hear he don’t date no more. I mean, he’s still sluttin,’ just not lyin’ to girls about being with them. 

Tori: Amaya freaked out when she heard about what I did and went on about child pornography laws and shit but they said that since he was 16 and it was all of our first offenses, we could take a plea deal and bring it down to a misdemeanor. 

Daysean: Y’all got lucky but yeah, fuck what the laws say, Tony deserved that shit. And you deserve to be with a guy who’ll treat you right. 

Tori looks into Daysean’s eyes and simpers. Daysean takes Tori’s hand. 

Daysean: I’ve been crushin’ on you mad hard for a while, Tori. And I’ve seen you goin’ through mad shit and I know that Amaya’s got your back but I wanna have your back too, for real. I wanna be that that guy for you, if you’ll let me.

Tori: (laughs shyly) Y’know that day at the Halloween dance when you, Mr. Scott and Michael starting that dance circle and you guys were all battling each other?

Daysean: Yeah? 

Tori: I said to myself God, he’s so cute.

Daysean: For real?

Tori: Yeah but I was being stupid and let my hormones choose a guy and not my heart. Wow, did I like, really just say that? That was so cheesy! (laughs nervously)

Daysean: Nah, I know what you mean. I was mad fat when I was a kid and no girl would talk to me. But when me and pops started training and playing ball and me and Maxwell took hip hop after school, I started droppin’ mad weight. I spent a lot of time at the gym and I became addicted to liftin’ weights and shit and watching the fat drop and watching the muscle build. Girls started lookin’ at me and I did some shit I probably shouldn’t have. I let my ego get in the way. But I don’t wanna be like Tony, I wanna be a real man and have somethin’ real with a girl. 

Tori: I want that too. Like, I’m ready to be in a relationship with someone who cares about me and I know that guy’s you.

Daysean and Tori lean in for a kiss. They kissed and held each other close. 

Daysean: Damn, you got the nicest lips. 

Tori: My lips like yours too.

Daysean: Check it, how about we get out of here? I wanna take you out. Anywhere you wanna go. Movies, dinner, bowling, wherever.

Tori: Anywhere?

Daysean: Well, I can’t take you nowhere expensive (laughs) but yeah. 

Tori: It’s so nice having a guy wanna take me out other than fucking Jensen, ugh! And every other guy just wants to take me back to their place and--well, y’know.

Daysean: Nah, nah, I ain’t about that no more. You ain’t gotta worry. Plus, I wanna get to know you more. 

Tori: Yeah, I wanna get to know you more too! Maybe we can get dinner?

Daysean: Maybe we can get some Italian? I know you love pizza. 

Tori: Wow! You noticed?

Daysean: ‘Course I noticed. Gotta know my girl.

S14 Stray Thoughts

I’ve just been informed that SPN is back on Thursday, so I’ve decided to rewatch the current season from the beginning before then. This is just gonna be notes and observations, and I’m still very bad at Tumblr, so this post might be formatted weird or I may violate some unwritten etiquette rules or whatever as I attempt to figure this out.

14x01

Wondering if Michael's dead-eye stare was a conscious character choice on Jensen's part, as a throwback or nod to Robo-Cas of yesteryear. It would make sense, Christian Keyes played Michael differently, he was in that vessel for a while, he's been running things and beaten Lucifer wearing that vessel - he's comfortable, confident in it by then. His vessel's person was probably long dead. Now, he's got Dean fighting him every step of his way, he's in a new body on a new earth, trying to work out a plan while staying hidden from Sam & Cas - it makes sense for him to share some of the physical tics that new angels have. I'm thinking Cas, Hannah, even Jack. I kinda have to think Jensen did that on purpose.

Sam’s MTA Spokesperson line will never not be funny to me. 

Cas meeting up with this demon guy is like the tinder date you knew you shouldn’t have agreed to meet but you did anyway, and within .002 seconds of walking in the door he confirms every sneaking suspicion you had that he was a douchenozzle and you hate yourself a little for not listening to your instincts in the first place cuz now you’re stuck here meeting with this guy.  “Castiel, darling.” “Oh, God.” *massive eye roll*

Castiel’s angelic abilities fluctuate so wildly he should probably see an angel doctor, he needs angel insulin or something. Not seeing the demons in the restaurant, not smiting the fuck out of them with a single touch to the head, not healing himself or anyone else after the fight. Seriously this is getting so bad I think it requires pharmaceutical intervention. 

I, too, enjoy counting my cash while I walk down dark allies by myself. 

Nick really is the biggest bullshit. honestly. I know everyone’s already gone over this but that motherfucker has zero business being alive, much less coherent.  Of course the douchenozzle demon is a capitalist. How did I not catch that one the first go round? Still doesn’t forgive Dabb for everything wrong in this ep. 

Sam Winchester, Warden of Hell S15 don’t @ me.

Bobby calling Mary ‘sunshine’ is an uncomfortable parallel given their relationship status by 14x12. 

Wait - Is Michael saying that his idea of paradise on earth is Purgatory? “Your want is simple, pure, clean - you just want to eat” - literally telling a vamp that he’s worth saving because his ‘want’ is ‘pure’. ‘Pure’, of course, being the exact word Dean had used to describe Purgatory himself. Weird. 

[sandrockers]

I love Jensen so much

[sandrockers]

I’m going coo coo crazy

(also context on the third photo HE LAUGHED AT ME AND IM PROUD LMAOO)

This was during the live Q&A in discord I had an amazing time 👻✨ Everyone was so fun HEHEE

(AND I WON SOMETHING WHAAAADHDJKSKS)

ONE BIG HIGHLIGHT FOR ME DURINH THE Q&A IS THEM CONFIRMING THAT HARU WILL COME BACK IN A FUTURE GAMEE YAYYYY💖 a lot of other things great things happened but my mind is a mess rn but atleast there will probably be a recording out soon xD
