happy @curtwen-week!!! day one: precanon/london

[aha-chuu]

Okay look here's the thing, here is the thing -

This is Sam. He's a eight foot tall robot with glowing eyes. In this trailer he sends fiery lasers out from his body from every available crevice.

But in Blade's character stories and in the relic set about his backstory, he describes Sam as such:

Blade always calls Sam either "walking armour" or "a person wearing colossal armour".

Blade probably hasn't ever met a robot before! The dude's a boomer.

Which is doubly funny, because of Blade's leaked "About Sam" voiceline:

Which makes me wonder... When Sam does his emo speech about wanting to be alive etc etc and "I'm just a cold metal husk of a man" etc etc and "oh I'm not even a human being!!!" - what does Blade think he's talking about?

Maybe Blade has since gotten the low down on robots and perhaps someone explained it to him. But for most people robots would be so mundane that the other Stellaron Hunters might not realise Blade has no fucking clue. Which is already funny, but it's kind of sweet that Blade has accepted Sam's motivation no questions asked?

Like, Blade loves a good "I am a monster" metaphor(?) as much as the next person, so I do buy that he'd just assume Sam is being verbose.

On the other hand, if Blade does know at this point, who explained it? Sam? Kafka? Does Elio give out pamphlets to new members? How long did it take? Even if Blade does know what a robot is by now, that doesn't mean he necessarily understands all the nuances of AI and like there's obviously a range of robots. Does Blade think Sam is basically a microwave with a cooler voice? Or he could be on the other end of the spectrum, thinking Sam is basically a normal dude but his species is Robot, like the foxians or Vidyadhara.

And I understand why Blade might not get it, because Sam is the guy who sends cute emojis from his phone, and helps Silver Wolf with her gaming without needing to be asked and he chastises Kafka about being unnecessarily cruel. Like he's almost the most human person in this group, and that's really tragic. But I do foresee that Elio's "I can make you into a real boy" promise will end up being "humanity was literally the friends [Blade, Kafka & SW] you made along the way".

Anyway I'm off to write fluffy found family fanfiction about these idiots.

[olasketches]

"can’t think of anything that makes my art recognizable" I disagree!! I think that your lines and the colours you use r really distinctive :> Also the little mark u put on noses !

I just scrolled through my art tag to see how many times I left a mark slash sketchy lines on noses and ahemmmmm… I have nothing in my defence

but anyway thank you for such kind words hina 🫶 you’re the BEST and I absolutely adoreeee your art so your words mean the world to me

I've been alluding to it here and there, but I have a big trip coming up! I'll be out of the country for about a month. I should have regular and stable internet connection, so things should be business as usual here. I'll just be mobile-bound for the duration of the trip. However, in the event that I do not, well, I am merely off futzing around and having what I hope to be a pleasant trip. The best way to get a hold of me during this time would be through dis.cord and I've left my details below the cut if you are interested in keeping contact with me during this time. Feel free to add me if we're mutuals!

tbh i dont really like angst because im fluff person more but the way u write it is different than a lot of other people it's just so good chefs kiss i swear when stray dogs will crawl out posted i COULDNT stop thinking about it . i think people enjoy reverse comfort for hawks because its focused on his healing and for the reader like everyone sees their self different if the story was on comforting the reader you know?? like if it was a comfort of s/o bc they got hurt people could imagine it in different ways but if it was hawks comfort getting hurt people are more likely to imagine it one way for example from a just villain . im not no writer but ur doing a great job that just a theory tho! those were just my favorites fics but ur thoughts nd essays i have a lot of favorites i go back and read especially the marriage one, drying wings, he's patient with trauma, OMFG I FORGOT how to fix the ache. I THINK ABOUT THAT MORE THAN U PEOPLE WILL EVER KNOW IM SORRY

OHHHHH WAIT THAT ACTUALLY MAKES SO MUCH SENSE! About comfort vs reverse comfort, that gives me a lot to think about.

HDJFJFJGNGNFNF BRAINWORMS a lot of people got brainworms from that one (how to fix the ache) it makes me laugh whenever I hear.
