Rabidragon from Yu-Gi-Oh

[identifying-cars-in-posts]

hi hi! i just found your blog and wanted to show off my car a bit :) im guessing you’re in america, and i got some varied comments and opinions on reddit for my car

be nice to her, she’s been neglected since 2013 and i just picked her up in may

YOOOOOOO THATS SO SICK. i love those first gen toyota mr2s so so much, i want one so bad. i am in the states and at least in my area even ones in rough shape are getting expensive, especially without rot - ive had to lower my expectations to preludes for my 80s japanese pop up headlight fix because i’m mostly priced out of mr2s now. especially for an mr2 that had been neglected for ten years she looks fantastic, sure she’s not a show car per se but i bet she’s a blast on windy roads. fuck all her haters, they’re wrong and your car is amazing

"Rabidragon"

For some reason, I felt the need to find this drawing again and I thought I posted it but my search (online) turned up nothin', so I went through my old drawings and found it again.

Materials: Pencil, gel pen, and watercolor pencils.

Which cars are most bisexual?

Ever get the chilling feeling that you made a grave mistake long ago and you are about to reap what you sowed?

In short, I hit some of my friends up to ask for help. In random alphabetical order:

@jettacar suggested the fourth gen Nissan Quest:

"It's like, no one really bought these. They aren't particularly common. But also, there's no one type of person that buys a car like this. Rationality would have you believe only families are buying this, because it's a giant minivan - but i can't immediately think of another car with a wider variety of types of people that own them right now (excluding cars that just sell incredibly well)"

Unfortunately, that made the conversation derail into minivan talk.

Up next, @rabidragon suggested the Fiat Multipla, due to its peculiar seating arrangement of two rows of three seats:

"3 seats in the front for you and your man and your woman".

Indeed, the peculiar thing about the Multipla is its row of three full-sized seats in front (many old cars had a front bench with some having three lap belts, but the Three Individual Front Seats club is as exclusive as it is devoid of prestige) and the many peculiarities that it caused, like off-center pretty much everything (mirror included) because the driver is further to the side than usual and where most of the centered things go there's now a passenger who would like to be.

But the even more peculiar thing about the Multipla is how spectacularly ugly it is. It's one of the few cars I've ever actually seen that manages to be full-on ugly not just outside but inside. Click on any list of ugliest cars in the world and if it doesn't contain the Multipla I can promise you that list was created by a machine that has since been physically shot. And if you're thinking "Well, it's not bad enough to warrant that hyperbole" - you are looking at the second generation. This is the pretty one. I put the first one and its interior at the end of the post under a read more because I genuinely did not want to be responsible for you seeing it.

I noted that Honda's FR-V managed the same seating layout with downright smart looks inside and out...

...and unfortunately that made the conversation derail into engine swap regulation loopholes.

Finally, @chevyventure suggested multiple. In (roughly) his words:

First generation Mazda 3 "It's a hatchback, good for many different uses - and Mazda is a little silly, charming and off the beaten path (if you were getting a Japanese hatchback you'd probably get a Toyota or a Honda) with a cute lil' smile like a Miata"

1988 Volvo 240 Wagon "Volvos are frequent hand me downs from family like all the cool childhood trauma the LGBTQs get"

[Editor's Note: bro.]

Renault Clio "It's peak hotness while also being cute in its own way, not necessarily preferring a masculine or feminine audience. I've never seen an ad for a Clio before, but if my assumptions about the car market are correct my guess is the normal one is kinda marketed towards women"

[Editor's note: So, I wanted to check that, so I just looked up "Renault Clio ad". These were the first two ads I found.

So yeah. I feel it qualifies.]

Unfortunately, talking about the Clio made the conversation derail into TWR's involvement in- oh wait, you're not gonna know about that Clio variant, are you.

So, many racing series can only be entered with racecars based on some production car - which is great for manufacturers, because they get to advertise their brand and one of their models simultaneously! But since there are rules on how much of the base car can be changed and how much of it must be retained, the stricter they are the more what you want as a base for your racecar is something high performance. So when you want to go racing with a dinky little thing like, say, first car to ever use plastic bumpers and only car to ever be called Renault Le Car in America Renault 5...

...what you are going to want to do is what, among many others, Toyota did with the Yaris GR and Lancia did with the Delta: the homologation special. Basically, you make a special version of the car with the characteristics you'd want in racing, sell enough to clear the rules's bar for "production car" (or at least, convince the officials you've done that), and go racing with that. So Renault did that to the 5 and hit up one Marcello Gandini to redesign it around the changes. You know, Marcello Gandini, guy most famous for designing mid-engined Ferrari-slayers:

Which makes sense, because the Renault 5 Turbo was a mid-engined Ferrari slayer. It was faster than the top-of-the-line Ferrari both in acceleration and in cornering speed. This thing.

(sidenote: The Interior. end of sidenote)

Well, twenty years on, some legend at Renault thought "You know what? We were onto something with that. Let's do that again but HARDER." Presumably, into the headquarters of Tom Walkinshaw Racing, a racing team that developed for Aston Martin, F1 teams, and made Jaguar's Fastest Production Car Ever record holder, and of course a fuckton of the most exciting racecars around, showed up uninvited that Renault madman saying "Y'all wanna work on something REAL prestigious?" before chucking them the keys to a second generation Clio and walking off with a "Don't thank me".

The result was the Clio V6, most notable for HAVING A FUCKING V6 WHERE THE BACKSEATS WERE. This car is genuinely incredible. Like, you see it and you go "Ooh ahh, the Clio V6!" and you look inside to see, you know, the huge V6 compartment thing and you see the interior and you realize this thing cost good sportscar money and when you got in it was a fucking Clio.

Mental stuff- wait shit this post was about bisexual cars wasn't it? How did the conversation derail like this? I swear this never happens. Well, I guess it's time for my pick.

Personally, chatting with Mr. Venture about hatchbacks, I realized that I cannot think of a more "girls car" than a Fiat 500 Cabriolet (which actually is called 500C) and cannot think of a more "boys car" than a Fiat 500 Abarth (which actually is called Abarth 500)...

...so how about the Fiat 500 Cabriolet Abarth?

It actually isn't called that but I think you could piece that together. As though a spoiler on a canvas roof wasn't weird enough, it contains the third brake light, probably making this the only car out there in which it can change position during use. Although I assure you, you're not gonna be thinking about that when driving it. Thing's a RIOT.

But honestly, that wasn't what I started off wanting to answer. So, last but most definitely not least, I candidate my first, gut-reaction answer: the NA Mazda Miata.

See, to me bisexuality (and pansexuality, but awareness of the nuances between them is so low they may as well be picked over flag preference) is someone appreciating all the beauty in the world, seeing no point in gatekeeping themselves out of half of it. And is that not what a spider is about? Is it not about saying "this world we're in is so full of beauty, who would rather blind themselves to half of it?". And look at the damn thing. It's bursting with exactly the kind of joie de vivre one would associate with such sentiment. It oozes enthusiastic curiosity. OwO what's this?: The Car.

Also, just look at this picture.

It can drift. IT CAN WINK. IT CAN WINK MID-DRIFT. I mean, what more than this degree of flirtatious playfulness can you possibly need to be convinced?

Links in blue are posts of mine explaining the words in question - if you liked this post, you might like those!

...

...are they gone? I think they're gone.

The Multipla pictures are down here. Go on then if you're gonna, you sick fuck.

If you have dealt with traumatic tumor-related experiences and seeing that dashboard caused you genuine discomfort, well, do not say I didn't warn you.

new @ rabidragon -> cargender

[bunwoos]

about gunwoo's yugioh verse, his favorite card combo is marshmallon with marshmallon glasses, melffy rabbit ( bc those fuckers have 2.1k defense ) and rabidragon with either horn of the unicorn or dragon shield because it essentially makes him untouchable - of course there are ways around, but just picture this big, muscular, tattooed skater boy with two very pink monsters and an angry bunny just ... annoying his opponents into submission. honestly i'd quit too LMAOOOOO.

[trash-sidhe]

It's here! A months work of work for this eheh a closed species and spec bio project! There's free raffles and adopts!

Dumping a lot of my older unfinished work trying to clear up my folders, Priest Seto's mom is the only slightly glimpsed but I got... “Inspired”, not enough to finish it but this is probably one of her few fanarts.

What duel monster spirt do you think she would wield? Personally I see  Rabidragon or Hyozanryu leaning more towards the rabid. 1) Because it’s lower then Blue-Eyes White Dragon by only 500 Attack points, and 2) because in Egyptian Mythology the Rabbet headed goddess Unut was originally a snake headed, sort of fitting for a mother of the Dragon wielding Seto.

@bunwoos 💜 for a short starter

Learning about new friends who play Duel Monsters excites his curiosity. He only listens on the sidelines when anything related to the game is brought up. He is peering from the corner of his eye at a couple of spell cards laid out in the open. And then he gazes around to spot a few monster cards. Fluffal Rabbit, Melffy Rabby, Dark Rabbit, Rabidragon. That’s a lot of rabbits, he thinks. But that’s like saying that’s a lot of magicians for him. There are never enough magicians. So, Atem can definitely understand the other’s dedication.

“I see you have a fondness for rabbits, Gunwoo. I’m sure Pegasus would approve.” He’s especially looking at the Dark Rabbit in this case. He can appreciate that there is a variety of bun cards with different aesthetics and abilities. He's almost wondering what it would be like to duel Gunwoo. Would he be able to resist Melffy Rabby’s cuteness? He’s almost sure that even Dark Magician wouldn’t want to attack that one. Or even Bunilla. But surprisingly Bunilla also has a strong defense among the rabbits. Looks like nothing is stopping him from nibbling carrots.

This is what Rex transforms into near the end of my mpreg fic. He looks like a literal angel 🥺

The “hair wings” are inspired by Mila from Fire Emblem: Shadows of Valentia.

~bUt, most of em are easily brUshed off. ya get Used to it, y’know? only so many times i can be called a scrUffy hobo or a dork before the effect starts to wear off, lmao”

[normalmonsterfight]

here's some Normal Monsters i think are cool! (mostly just ones that i like the artwork of)

Power Pro Knight Sisters Chosen by the World Chalice Wattaildragon Gem-Knight Garnet Alexandrite Dragon Mekk-Knight Avram Luster Dragon 7 Colored Fish Suppression Collider Frostosaurus Angel Trumpeter Galaxy Serpent Guardragon Justica Crowned by the World Chalice Doll Monster Miss Mädchen Doll Monster Bear-Bear Dragon Core Hexer Divine Dragon Ragnarok Digitron Rabidragon Metaphys Armed Dragon Flash Knight

I might have more later.

also, one question. If a monster is Normal/Pendulum, but it does have a Pendulum Effect, does it count for the list? If so, i'd like to nominate Dragonpulse Magician and Hallohallo.

All added!

I'm a little mixed on Normals with pendulum effects, but for now I'll allow it unless a significant number of people feel it's unfair.

[tvonq]

@oreturns has sent you a letter ! “ you almost had me there. If you had gotten to play that trap, I wouldn’t have really had much of a chance to save my life points.” Much. Meaning it could’ve happened, but he didn’t say that, he instead smiled bright and cheered the other on. “ I think you will beat me next time! ”

GOD, GUNWOO HAD JUST BEEN SO CLOSE TO   winning he could taste it. The reality was more like he had deluded himself into thinking he could beat the King of Games in anything other than a foot race. He had really and truly thought he had Yuugi beat : he had Rabidragon in attack mode, United We Stand on the field   ( bringing Rabidragon's attack to a whopping 3750 )   along with Marshmallon and Marshmallon Glasses. He should have won. It was right there  ⸻  but in the end, and just like always, Yuugi had somehow pulled some miraculous victory. 

Gunwoo groaned as he watched the holograms disappear in front of them, the lights on his duel disk shutting off as the battle finished. In a very childlike manner he stomped his foot, a pout pulling at his lips.   " I was so close! "   He whined a bit, looking down at the cards he had in play  ⸻ as well as the one he had face down that he knew wasn't going to be helpful in the slightest. Ring of Defense was useful, but not in this situation. He would have been forced down to zero life points no matter what. 

Exhaling deeply he walked himself across the dueling arena, slipping the cards off of his disk and back into his deck   ⸻  all except for Rabidragon, which he stared at pretty proudly.   " That was a lot of fun, though! Thanks for dueling with me, Yuug ... I always seem to be reminded the hard way why you're called the king of games. "   There's a friendly giggle that comes out of him, cheeks a little flushed as he stares lovingly at the card in his hand. It was one gifted to him by Yuugi himself, and he treasured it greatly. Maybe one day the same card would be used to defeat him.
