This morning I woke up really early and decided to wake my brothers up with some classic Christmas music. This was one of my songs:

You better watch out

You better not cry

You better not pout

I’m telling you why

Scotty Claus is coming to town

He sees you when you’re sleeping

He knows if you’re awake

And if you say his name out loud

He’ll steal your birthday cake

For some reason Scotty didn’t like it 🤷‍♂️. He ordered Parker jr to take me out until I was “suitably exhausted” so she and Parker nessie took me into town for the winter fest to explore. Scott was so desperate for some peace and quiet that he gave Parker jr money to keep me entertained!

Unfortunately he didn’t give me enough for this really cool bag

But I found a puzzle, and a doughnut stand, then I went and played on the hook a duck to rescue a plushie. I won a shark, his name is Jaws. Then it started to rain so we went to costa for some lunch before I went to explore the market. Parker jr said I still had some money left so I chose a ride to go on. I went on the big wheel! It was so so fun!!!!

NAME: Aquasturge

ALSO KNOWN AS: Moss Duck, North American Nessie

RARITY: ★★☆☆☆

THREAT LEVEL: ★★☆☆☆ | Occasionally kill but don’t present much of a threat outside of the water, beyond their honking.

HABITAT: Aquasturges live exclusively in lakes, where the water is both fresh and deep enough for them to build their underwater nests. 

DESCRIPTION: Despite aquasturges being colloquially known as moss ducks, their form more closely resembles that of a swan sans feathers. Well, maybe a little more horrific than a swan without feathers. Their beaks are lined with rows of sharp teeth and algae collects on their skin, making them appear even more terrifying than they already are. Throughout larger lakes in North America, aquasturge nests can be found tucked away in the deepest parts of the lakes. The males and offspring remain safe in the nest while the mother hunts at night. While their beaks aren’t especially large and they lack the grip of hands or claws, aquasturges rely on their booming honks to stun their prey. Campers who decide to take a late night dip in the lake are the most likely to become the victim of an aquasturge, but in rare cases, if there’s been a long span of time between meals, they will make their way to the shore’s edge to drag their prey back to their nest. 

ABILITIES: Aquasturges are able to stun their prey within ten feet with a deafening honking sound as they emerge from the water. This sound leaves their victim completely stunned as they’re dragged to the depths of the lake for feeding time. Heightened eyesight and hearing give them an advantage in their terrain. Their long arms are sharp as scythes, which are believed to help them break their meals apart into smaller portions for the whole family to share, but they do not offer much in the way of grip as they are more wing than arm-like. This unfortunately, or fortunately, doesn’t allow them to take flight. Despite being only the size of swans, they are strong enough to drag a stunned adult human into a lake.

WEAKNESS: Outside of the water, aquasturges lose most of their advantage. Their honks have a short radius and they are easy to out maneuver on land. If one has ear plugs or headphones in, they can avoid being stunned by the loud honks. Aquasturges can be killed by normal means.

Hi yes question which birbs can swim 👁️👁️

Well there's the obvious answers like penguins and puffins and ducks but we're here for the more interesting stuff!

The Cormorant (this particular one is a common double-breasted) can swim underwater to catch fish. And it's the inspiration for the Pokémon Cramorant!

Because a bird deepthroating Pikachu is what all the kids want to see

Then we have these really cute ones called Dovekies, or Little Auk(s). They're only about 7.5 - 9.1 inches (19 - 23.1 centimeters) big and derive basically all their nutrients from the ocean.

There's also this Nessie looking motherfucker named the Anhinga, or 'snake bird'. They can dive up to 60 feet but only stay underwater for a minute or so.

And the particularly sleek Razorbill, who is not a penguin. They're the closest living relative to the extinct Great Auk (which was thought to be the northern hemisphere's version of penguins).

And all these birds can fly! (though penguins are still the superior swimmers)

[charincharge]

Can you do one where Cassian gives Nesta a cute baby kitten plsss 🥺🥺🥺

Sorry this took forever to get to. This definitely wasn’t inspired my own day lololol. 

Nesta flopped over on the couch and tucked her knees into her chest, trying to breathe through another wave of nausea. Over a decade of getting her period, and it still sucked. Every. Single. Time.

Luckily, her husband knew exactly how to help when she was under the weather. Cassian had left her a steaming hot mug of raspberry leaf tea with a dash of honey, so it’d be the perfect drinkable temperature when her own alarm went off. He’d also made her a steak breakfast burrito to warm up when she got hungry, because Nesta always craved red meat when she was bleeding. She was convinced it was her brain’s way of refilling the iron she was bleeding out.

And he did it all before taking their three year old, Ezra, to the park, so she’d have the morning to herself to rest. Sometimes, as shocking as it still was to her, given his wild partying and womanizing past, Cassian was the perfect partner.

She shuffled the channel to a cooking competition and stretched her legs back out, hoping she’d get hungry soon. But before she knew it, her eyes fluttered closed and she was asleep.

“Nes? Nessie?” Cassian’s low voice called from the front door. “We’re home…”

“Mm?” Neta raised her head off the pile of pillows she’d shoved under her cheek.

Cassian walked into the living room, Ezra in tow, arms overflowing with shopping bags. Nesta furrowed her brow at her husband’s wide hazel eyes, brimming with excitement. Beside him, Ezra’s matching eyes were accompanied by a guilty smile. He bounced on his little toes, as if vibrating out of his tiny body.

“Do you have to potty?” she asked, and Ezra quickly shook his head. Nesta pushed herself up to sitting and frowned. “Then, come give me a hug, baby.”

Ezra launched forward, climbing up onto Nesta’s lap. She pushed his dark waves out of his face and kissed his forehead as the boy nestled himself against her chest. He clung his little arms around her neck tightly, causing Nesta to duck down.

“Careful, bud,” Cassian warned, leaning down to pry the tiny hands from their ironclad grasp. “Be gentle with mama today, remember? She’s not feeling well.”

“Sorry, mama,” Ezra said, bringing his hands down to rest in his lap.

“It’s fine,” Nesta sighed, relishing in the warmth from his little body. As she stroked his head, she could feel his excitement building again. “How was the park?” she asked, lifting his little pointy chin in her direction. Ezra smiled widely, revealing a toothy grin as he shrieked.

“We saw a cat!”

“What?” Nesta gasped, joining in on her toddler’s excitement. “You did? A cat?”

“And kittens!” Ezra squealed. “Right, Daddy?”

Ezra looked up at Cassian with such admiration and pride it almost brought tears to Nesta’s eyes.

“We did…” Cassian nodded with a soft chuckle.

“Wow!” Nesta exclaimed. “What a fun morning!”

Ezra slid off Nesta’s lap and ran to Cassian’s leg, clinging around it and staring up at the tall man. “Show her, daddy, show her!” he chanted, his small and demanding voice sounding much too similar to his mother’s.

Cassian grimaced slightly and squatted down. His pleading eyes looked up at his wife, begging silently for understanding, and Nesta shrugged. If Ezra wanted to spend the afternoon showing her pictures of kittens, she would happily look at them, despite the discomfort in her stomach.

“Don’t freak out,” Cassian said, before reaching into the cardboard box Nesta hadn’t noticed resting at his feet and pulling out a tiny grey kitten. It jumped from his hand onto the couch and trotted right up to Nesta. She gasped loudly, staring between her husband and son, both staring at her with the same hopeful gaze.

She looked down at the kitten, and it stared back up at her. It was a little mangy grey thing, barely old enough to walk with the brightest blue eyes Nesta had ever seen in real life. Her lips parted, ready to tell Cassian he absolutely had to take the kitten back to the park. She didn’t want a kitten. Nesta wasn’t exactly what you’d call an animal person.

“Before you tell me you’re not an animal person again,” Cassian began, resting one hand on Nesta’s knee and the other stroking the tiny head of the kitten. “Might I remind you, you weren’t a child person, either, until we had one.”

Nesta rolled her eyes. But, she knew that he spoke the truth. Despite loathing children her entire life, as soon as Nesta became pregnant, it was as if a motherhood chip activated. She’d never loved anything more. But cats weren’t children.

“Ezra will help take care of him,” Cassian continued, “And he’s already been taken to the vet, and is totally healthy.”

When she glanced down again, the kitten had climbed onto her lap and curled into a small ball, almost the size of Nesta’s fist, and was purring contentedly into her stomach. The warm vibrations soothed the pain in her stomach nearly immediately, and Nesta could feel her heart tug slightly.

“Another boy, huh?”

She bit her lip and sighed, causing Cassian to lean forward and press his lips to hers in a long kiss.

“You won’t regret this,” Cassian mumbled against her mouth. A little hand tugged at Nesta’s leg as Ezra whimpered. “I get a kiss too, mama?”

Chuckling, Nesta pulled away from Cassian. Still keeping her hand on his tanned cheek, she leaned down and kissed Ezra again.

With her free hand, she scratched the tiny kitten behind its ears. “So… what should its name be?”

And as Ezra began mumbling a long list of possible names, Nesta leaned back into the couch, surrounded by her boys, suddenly feeling infinitely better.

Midnight Shift: Carry On, Citizen Fang

Summary: Something wicked this way comes. If only Resentment could figure out if it was the same thing that stunk up the Burger King. Chapters: 2/? Read on ao3

Straight Kevin had been very understanding about my family emergency – He was super duper cool with manning the restaurant all by his lonesome. Sadly, he wasn't understanding enough to let me get away with not telling Gay Kevin about it – which wasn't very super duper cool of him, now was it?

He didn't even have the decency to offer to call for me, the fucking coward.

"Are you certain it's an emergency?"

I rolled my eyes and skipped over the muddy snow pile blocking the sidewalk. I felt a sense of kinship with the season. Besides the cold and death, Winter went all out when it came to inconveniencing the population.

"Trust me, Kev. If I wanted to blow off work, I'd do it on location. I'm not exactly in a rush to get home, ya know?"

The line went quiet for exactly five seconds and I could picture him doing that breathing exercise he did whenever he was fed up with my shit. I took the opportunity to loudly slurp my mello yello.

Delicious.

"I don't know, you could be ditching to hang out with friends or something. Teens do that. I did that." I almost laughed, as if.

"I spend all of my free time at work and everyone my age thinks I'm pregnant with an incest baby. Bold of you to assume I even have friends."

"You would get friends if you felt like it would inconvenience me. And it would really inconvenience me right now"

"Ugh. Don't be so dramatic. I don't do things just to be a general nuisance," I heard a snort that didn't come from Gay Kevin. "Wait, did you put me on speaker?!"

"What's the word, Res" Not Kevin chimed in before being shushed by Gay Kevin.

"Relax, we're loading the rental. I don't exactly have a free hand."

"So? This only needed to be like two seconds. Take a five or something."

"I'm going to level with you, our new napkin guy gives me real sketch vibes. Any second where we're not loading, it's an additional second we have to spend here. I simply refuse to die in a dilapidated warehouse, Resentment. I refuse."

I crossed the street to take the park shortcut home. A couple of high schoolers were vaping by the swings; they stared at me and I ignored them.

"I think you'd survive. You exude final girl energy"

"Have you ever watched a horror movie? I'd literally die first"

"I watched Practical Magic once" I smirked when Not Kevin groaned.

My satisfaction didn't last long, because no more than a second later, a snowball hit the back of my head. I took a deep breath and reminded myself that I couldn't gloat to Edward about having the moral high ground if I murdered every minor annoyance that crossed my path.

It just sucked having to ignore my vampire senses because I had to play human. What was the point of knowing something was coming if you were unable to stop it because you had to keep up appearances? In my opinion, humans should just have to deal with the knowledge of the supernatural. They were big kids, we didn't need to coddle them anymore.

It was 2022, for God's sake.

I turned back scowling and flipped off the fuckers. I recognized High-Pony in the group and decided to give her the soggiest, saddest, AND smallest fries next time she dared enter my work.

Maybe even sprinkle some burnt ones for extra flavor.

"I know what you're doing and I'm begging you to stop. I'm the one who has to deal with him for the next two hours"

"Don't be rude. Not Kevin is a gift," I glared at the group and slowly walked away backwards. At least until they were out of my sight. The Cullens were insane for going back to high school as often as they did.

"Ha. It's nice to be appreciated"

"Truly. Short of a museum, where else are you going to find something so old?"

"Boo. Get new jokes, the material is stale," I rolled my eyes as I shook the snow from my hair. I was rapidly approaching home and I wasn't quite prepared to go in.

For one, how was I supposed to keep my new mystery to myself if that's what Alice saw? It wasn't fair. To think I had only been worried about Big Brother and his thought police...

Reflecting on it though, if Alice saw my mystery man, then wouldn't that mean he was either a vampire or a human? Ergo, something neither mysterious nor interesting.

Disappointing.

"Whatever, gramps"

"Ok, ok. Let's get back on topic –"

"You gotta start trying harder, Chucky. You're far from the only teen girl that calls me ancient on the regular."

"Why are you regularly taking to teenage girls, creep?"

"Guys –"

"That's not what–! I foster kids!"

"Yeah, sure, pervert"

"I'm NOT –"

"OK RESENTMENT, DEAL WITH YOUR FAMILY. HANGING UP NOW"

I stopped walking and stared at my phone. Despite the length of the call, there had been no new messages from my family. I was unsure if that was a good sign.

I took a sip from my drink and was disappointed to find I only had ice left. I wondered if that was thematically significant, or maybe even foreshadowing.

Sigh.

I picked up my pace and tried to empty my mind before arriving home. "No thoughts, head empty" was a good mantra when you lived with a mind reader.

The rest of the walk was fairly uneventful, save for some guy who got attacked by a flock of ducks for getting way too close without enough food. Beware, all amateur wildlife photographers, lest the same fate falls upon you, I guess.

Poor guy even lost his coat. I was happy to assume it was the first casualty under the duck assault.

I slowed down when I finally arrived across the street from my home.  The newest Cullen mansion stood foreboding before me. A concrete monument full of sharp lines and odd angles; despite all of Esme's soft touches, brutalism simply exuded hostility and soullessness. Try as she might, there was a limit to how much you could dress up a giant grey concrete block to make it look approachable – and if we were being honest, it wasn't working.

How's that for a metaphor?

Well. There was no use delaying the inevitable.

I entered the house.

[Scene Break]

Being a half-vampire meant that I always felt at a misstep with everyone around me. To me, humanity was more of a scientific field of study that I took interest in and less of a dearly held-on memento of a bygone era or something that I simply had.

From the vampire side of things, while I was clearly an abomination, my existence didn't require me to be a parasitic blood freak. That put me in a different head space from the rest of my family. For one, I didn't need to agonize over my monstrous nature; secondly, I wasn't a slave to my bloodlust if I kept myself full of human food; and thirdly, there just wasn't much precedent for me to measure up to.

For all we knew, everything I did was the best I could have done.

That was all to say, I always felt like there was something I was missing when interacting with anyone. My point of view was fundamentally a different one, and though some things I could make sense of theoretically, it wasn't the same as first-hand experience.

Standing in the living room, surrounded by my family as they continued to say nothing, I couldn't help but think that perhaps this time the context I was missing had nothing to do with my hybrid status.

Edward paced while looking constipated but everyone else stood motionless and rigidly like the statues they were. Not even Emmett tried to lighten the mood, and that's how you knew it was serious.

"So who's going to who's funeral? Please don't say any of my coworkers, I've grown quite attached to them"

"Renesmee," Edward warned. I ignore him like he ignored my preferred name.

"Is it you pops? Wanna crack open another high school girl and drink her up like grape soda?"

"For once in your life could you stop acting like a brat?" Edward snapped and I flinched.

"Takes one to know one. Maybe if you didn't raise one you wouldn't have to deal with one, dad"

"Enough!" We both turned to look at Carlisle and I could see how unsettled he was. My stomach churned.

"Maybe my vision was wrong. Maybe it wasn't him," Alice sounded desperate, almost like the time the truck transporting her latest Givenchy haul got into a freak accident and the customer service lady told her they couldn't replace her order until after whatever microtrend that had been happening at the time ended.

"No, Alice. I saw your vision. It was. No doubt about it, that face is burned in my memory"

"It just doesn't make any sense, Edward!"

"I know what I saw," he replied forcefully.

Carlisle rubbed at his eyes, and for the briefest of seconds, you could have mistaken him for human.

"What's going on? You guys are scaring me," nothing felt right and all I wanted to do was to get back to the Burger King. At least the Kevins kept me in the loop when potentially life-threatening stuff happened.

"James is back," Bella whispered and I looked at her. Out of all of the Cullens, she looked the least worried. While everyone else's expressions visibly darkened at hearing the name, Bella said the name like she would say any name that wasn't Edward's.

"Who the fuck is James?"

"He was a vampire," Jasper growled.

"So what's the big deal? I don't know if you have noticed, but all of you are vampires"

"Emphasis on the was, Nessie. We ripped apart the bastard a good 16 years ago," Emmet explained. I raised my eyebrow.

"You sure about that? Last I heard, once you killed the undead, they were dead for good. No such thing as an undead undead."

"Oh, damn sure. We tore into him like frenzied piranhas at lunchtime and then lit him like a firework on the Fourth of July," Rosalie lightly hit his arm.

"You don't have to be so graphic about it"

"So it's obviously not him," Edward made a noise filled with frustration.

"Renesmee, I know what I saw. It was him, I would bet my life on it"

"Would you bet Bella's?" was what I almost said but Edward's glare made me reconsider. Just this once.

"Dead people just don't walk around all over the place," I said instead.

"We do," Emmett chimed in.

"We're different!"

"So why not him?"

"Edward is right," Classic Carl Carlisle move. His Golden Child could never be wrong. "I might have heard of something like this happening before."

There was a brief moment of silence before everyone exploded.

"WHAT?!"

Carlisle sighed and pinched the bridge of his nose.

"You have to understand, I couldn't verify it at the time."

When he said nothing, Esme made a "well, go on" motion.

"It happened about a decade ago. I only came upon this information because of Eleazar – he had approached me about it because he thought I was involved," Carlisle walked towards a window and stared into the distance like the dramatic bitch he was.

Edward slapped the back of my head.

"He told me heard of rumors of a vampire that had died 50 years ago and who walked the Earth again. You all know about my passion for Theology and my desire to find out what waits for us on the other side, so I promised to look into it. It took a while, but eventually, I heard back from someone"

"Your trip to Carencro," Esme gasped. "You said it was a conference!"

"When was this, I don't remember this?" Carl was holding back no punches in his dramatic reveal.

"It was our semester abroad," that's what Edward like to call the half a year experiment we spent in France. He wanted to see if Bella, him, and I could be a family unit all on our own.

It failed pretty miserably, would never happen again.

"I didn't want to burden you, love. Not unless I knew for sure."

Rosalie rolled her eyes. "So what happened?"

Carlisle turned back to us and shrugged.

"I met my informant and they told me to go to this one cafe and ask for Roy. I went there and the manager told me no one with that name worked there"

"So you got pranked," Emmet said.

"I looked around town for a couple of days, and since nothing else came up after my trip to Lousiana, I felt comfortable labeling the whole thing a hoax."

Rosalie scoffed. "And you think that's what's happening here?"

"I think it could be a possibility. This is our only lead"

I thought over what Carlisle just said. Could there really be an afterlife vampires could come back from? And if that was the case, then what happened to Roy? Was Roy even the vampire Elezear heard about?

But most importantly, why now?

"Hey, Alice. Besides James, what else did you see?"

Everyone went quiet and I looked back at them confused.

"I saw us without you"

"I mean, you don't really see me in your visions," I chuckled nervously.

"When I don't see you, it's like I'm looking around something. What I saw...it felt like I would never have to deal with that interference again."

"...Oh"

That didn't sound good.

[whump-galaxy]

This isn’t whump but I moved into the new house and it feel so crazy. There’s a pond with fish and turtles and wild ducks. A family member apparently saw a massive snapping turtle. I’ve named it Nessie.

[mar-bluu]

Hi helloooo, so you know I'm obsessed with Albert and his Lapras: Her name is 'Her Majesty' for reasons he refuses to admit. Racetrack and Blink call her Nessie though :p thoughts?

Asfkdjakendk ohmygosh yes!! Her Majesty is amazing! (Albert's definitely got an assortment of crowns and tiaras for her, she gets a new one for her birthday) and Race and Blink are her number one fans, they absolutely adore her and she adores them! Race'll come tearing down to the lake she stays in calling out to her "heya Nessie!" And Her Majesty goes nuts! She dives and breeches and flips and splashes him, and Race shields his face from the waves, laughing along. Occasionally they all go swimming in the lake, anyone elses water pokemon joining them, Nessie ducking and diving under the water, surprising Blink, Race and Albert (who are the only ones she ever does this with) by scooping them up and popping up with one of them on her back!

This morning I woke up really early and decided to wake my brothers up with some classic Christmas music. This was one of my songs:

You better watch out

You better not cry

You better not pout

I’m telling you why

Scotty Claus is coming to town

He sees you when you’re sleeping

He knows if you’re awake

And if you say his name out loud

He’ll steal your birthday cake

For some reason Scotty didn’t like it 🤷‍♂️. He ordered Parker jr to take me out until I was “suitably exhausted” so she and Parker nessie took me into town for the winter fest to explore. Scott was so desperate for some peace and quiet that he gave Parker jr money to keep me entertained!

Unfortunately he didn’t give me enough for this really cool bag

But I found a puzzle, and a doughnut stand, then I went and played on the hook a duck to rescue a plushie. I won a shark, his name is Jaws. Then it started to rain so we went to costa for some lunch before I went to explore the market. Parker jr said I still had some money left so I chose a ride to go on. I went on the big wheel! It was so so fun!!!!

Today was Scott’s big trip he has been organising for weeks for Parker Nessie’s birthday. Then John found out he was going to a museum and begged to go with him. Scott and he compromised as Scott was determined to have a day out on his own but wouldn’t tell Parker jr what he and John agreed too.

Then I found out they were going to a museum with boats and decided I needed to go so I asked Scott and he said “jfc (he really did say the F word) fine you can all come!

So we did!

There’s a red weather warning in the uk for high winds and we have been advised to keep warm and safe indoors and watch thunderbirds. @drileyf my best friend - squiddy, and my wife - lady Penelope would like to say thank you so much for finding them a forever home where they are loved and cherished 💛. The frogs and lizards are playing hide and seek in the truck!

@janetm74 @rachfielden-xo @cg29 @tbirds @mrmustachious @inertplanetary @ak47stylegirl @m-calculus @alexthefly @katblu42 stay safe! And make sure my cousins across the globe are all safe too!

John said it’s the queens platinum jubilee and that she has been the queen of England for 70 years (that’s even older than grandma!) Casey joined us for our picnic (which was supposed to be outdoors but it’s raining 🥺) so we moved the party indoors

We even got to wear these awesome crowns!

GO CRAZY 🖊

:)

lemme tell ya about vanessa, my favorite character from doom days (the book series i'm currently working on)

vanessa is polynesian and part mountain orc (grandmother) she's 6'9" and built like a truck, she likes boxing and hunting for local cryptids with her childhood friend akira who nicknamed her nessie

she comes from a pretty large family, all of whom practice magik, vanessa herself is a magmagician (like an earth and fire elementalist combined)

she's the type of person who looks like she has her shit together but really she's a mess, she's pretty goofy and has a tiny pet dragon named lava, also she shreds on bass guitar and wears very colorful button down shirts with geometric shapes and of course big ass earrings like with rubber ducks and shit

i love her so much she is so pretty and could body slam an entire line of riot police into the ground

[build-stone]

pls tell us about the place,,,i love rex

oh you've done it now (it's gonna be hard to not let yall know where I live with this if I slip up don't come to kill me) but okay there is SO MUCH TO TALK ABOUT

it long so here's a cut

so!!! map first

just from this, you can tell its fucking EPIC dude

this is what the train-o-Saurus looks like hehe based on rex of course (rex is the mascot) and they also have an Alice in wonderland land and I won't post pics cuz it is SCARY but its there

but let's talk about the robots which are honestly the coolest!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ngm6bqgMPgw here's a video of the corn singing lmaoo (kinda creepy b careful)

here's the FROG

they also have like corn mazes and goats and sheep and bunnies and games like paintball and oh man

there's all the singing skeletons: Petey and Leroy who I have claimed to be gay who have a show where they gabber at each other about fixing their pickup truck here's a picture

and they have sons (not canon I'm fucking making headcanons for a Halloween thing lmao) who have a band and play near the haunted barn

then there's the corn, some chickens, frogs, there's REAL pig race track which I haven't seen in action, there are MORE chickens in a car, there's a whole pumpkin light show which I can't get a video of cuz it says the name of the place but it is AMAZING ill get a pic

its a bunch of lights and corn and man its epic n it moves its wow it sure is a light show

and now onto the dinos!! there are normal pumpkin people scattered around the park and they look like scarecrows but they have good clothes and stuff (the pic won't load on the website so :( but they look cool) and then there are rex’s brothers/sisters who I don't THINk I have names other than the last one(Nessy) but they're there and funny looking 

I love them so much

and now on the big man himself, Rex! he is the mascot and has a whole show where a human will show you how he can chomp on pumpkins and loves to be pet and has a rubber duck friend !!

anyway, thank u for asking about this I love this so much!! i dunno if its comprehensible but :DDDD

shitty superhero concepts

I stuck a lot of different chunks of my long list of City of Heroes characters into this machine learning tool that will try generating more text to match a sample. It actually proved pretty good at recognizing that it was a list of characters and making more, so here is a list of superheroes the AI invented (with a whole lot of incomprehensible/boring ones removed):

Kerris - Chief security officer in charge of dealing with the "good guys," who are basically robots that can control space.

Kiara Lissington - An employee of a major supplier of drugs, and a drug enthusiast who happens to be super-powerful at using her mind to predict bad things.

Pinecone - A blacksmith shop keeper who is obsessed with a blacksmith by the name of Johnny. His job is to destroy all things made out of metal, but Johnny's job with his tools really bothers him.

Duck - A human-sized turtle with two eyes.

Fluffy Muffy - Unnamed, one of the only survivors of Atlantis was a little guy: he was born and raised in a cave and only gets back to the surface when he's been given a special amulet by his parents

Olivia: Librarian and one of the most important members who, since joining the group, has turned into the biggest asshole in the world. Even when she's not talking about the rest of them, she just seems like an absolute asshole and would never listen to anyone who had anything to say against the idea of getting involved with people she felt were assholes.

Ran: The newest member.

Skeleton: A skeletal-like form of a humanoid alien lifeform, the most durable of an alien race and the greatest threat to the human race.

Billy Crystal: A professional magician who is also one of the most charismatic performers of all time. His voice is so powerful a speaker would probably crack under the strain.

Butt of the Devil: Dr. Geller, evil Dr. Geller; former mentor to the Wizard of Oz, and the hero of the greatest horror film of them all. He was later turned into an eerily similar character by Christopher Nolan, though not in a terrible way. He is the one the Wizard of Oz was always all about. (Not to mention that he's pretty much Batman.)

Translator 0x06B6: Girl who uses the Longbow to shoot people like crazy when she is bored or drunk or bored and gets sick from drinking too much. She is also a pretty shitty and annoying drunk. A lot of her companions are also terrible drunkards.

She-Hulk - A super-powered warrior/druid whose father, the mighty Odin, created her for one purpose in particular: To slay his brother, Thor. His attempts to defeat her have had no success.

Nessie Kintse - A magical white girl who was forced to watch her dead mother die. She always gets up the first day and looks cute.

Agent Rose - A super-soldier whose skills are far superior than she allows herself to believe. Also has a hard time keeping her head in a crack.

Zoey: Girlfriend by virtue of having an alibi for being in a city with a trans-dimensional-trendy-planet-where-she-was-sucking-the-heartstrings-and-becoming-the-trendy-next-real-woman situation.
