Playboyy Speculation
I think Zouey got raped or, at the very least, had an extremely violent encounter with someone and Nant found out. I don't know if he just found out or if Zouey told all of his friends, but I think Nant knew someone severely hurt his best friend and I think that played a MAJOR role in his disappearance. That's why Zouey seems sketch and like he's hiding something. Because he IS hiding his secret that may have played a part in Nant dying how he did, but he didn't actually have anything to do with it.
I won't pretend I like Zouey or that I haven't been suspicious of him, but I really don't think he killed Nant or is even directly connected to his disappearance. I also don't think Nant was the one to hurt him since he was genuinely so happy when Nont showed up pretending to be Nant.
I just think while Nant was burning his whole life down with drugs something really bad happened to Zouey. I think Nant thought it was connected (and it probably was) to the shitty people he was around and it set this entire thing in motion. Which is why Zouey was so desperate to find Nant, then so happy when Nont showed up pretending to be him, became almost as obsessed with Nont in finding Nant, is currently almost as obsessed as Nont about finding out why Nant died, and seemed terrified for Teena to look at whatever painting was under the tarp in his studio.
I just think Nant dying is connected to Zouey's sexual trauma and he obviously feels extremely guilty about it, even though I don't think he did anything wrong.

Okay if you haven't yet, and you have Netflix/Paramount+, consider giving "School Spirits" a chance.
It looks like a silly little cheesy teenage ghosts show, I put it on for background noise, and then got totally engrossed in the mystery. It's VERY well written, very well filmed, the mystery was GREAT and the payoff at the end is also great.
One of the things majorly lacking in shows I've recently tried to watch is that they try to do a twist/reveal at the end that comes out of nowhere. They don't want you to guess what they're doing. This show doesn't do that. This show wants you to guess. They give you seven different mysteries and enough clues to guess (most of) what is going on, so that when you get the final puzzle piece to any given mystery, it feels GREAT.
The story premise is this: a teenager in hs wakes up as a ghost in the hs, and doesn't remember how she died, and with the help of the other ghosts, tries to solve the mystery of her own death.
Simple premise. BEAUTIFULLY executed. Not all of the questions that arise get answered, but the main one (what she doesn't remember) gets solved by the end of the season, leaving the "why/how and what comes next" to be carried to the next season. It does a cliffhanger RIGHT. But now I desperately want to see the second season (which I believe has been approved, so it's a matter of waiting).
So pretty please, if you're looking for something to do and a great, engaging lil mystery to watch, consider! School Spirits!!

Can I give a prompt?
What about Kirby not being scared by anything or anyone but then necrodeus walks in and Kirby is terrified and nobody understands why Kirby is scared of the a decrepit bag of bones like grandpa necrodeus
(You know for the whole, necrodeus canonically Can kill Kirby since mass attack is the only game in which Kirby dies in the game over)
I've only watched one playthrough of Mass Attack and it didn't show any KO's if I recall correctly, but the idea of Kirby being scared of some rickety old guy was still pretty funny to me.
Dedede and Meta Knight are ready to defend Kirby against what few things he may be afraid of, but this one might raise some eyebrows...

(Not-so)Quick Wonderful Precure! team redesign~
Seeing @aceaeite lovely Wonderful Precure! redesigns motivated me to try my own (๑꒪̇ω꒪̇๑) Some parts are directly taken from theirs (bigger headpieces, Wonderful's fluffy parts, and Nyammy's sleeves) so credit goes to them for these!
Overall, I chose to keep them very close to the official version and just simplified and changed things to my liking, with more harmonious colors (and a true green cure 🍀)

i'm ngl depicting thunder's prosthetic as a burden is pretty uncomfortable even if it is something some amputees experience because like. there's a huge stigma around prosthetics already you know? it's like having a parent forcibly strap a child into a wheelchair when they don't need it and having a horrible experience with it and that being your only character in a wheelchair. some full-time wheelchair users do resent their wheelchairs but when that's the only time you're bringing it up at all it feels like you're playing into our society's perception of wheelchairs and mobility aids in general as useless and best and divine punishment at worst. idk do let me know if i'm wording this wrong because i really do love better bones! it's just that this detail is... strange.
I mean, I'm open to feedback if that's not something I should do-- but I do actually have other characters in prosthetics and mobility aids! A lot of them! Thunderstar's actually the only one who ends up rejecting his own, because I also wanted to depict that it's bad to force a device onto someone who does not want one.
Especially in circumstances like Thunder Storm's, where that sort of device would be actively unhelpful for his lifestyle. It might help in open field environments like moorland, but then I got more feedback and realized that it would just make a lot of unwanted noise in a forest (since cats have carpal whiskers to help them figure out where to place their paws). Then I figured it was a good way to show how BB!Clear Sky doesn't actually listen to his son's needs and acts differently when he's not "grateful" enough for his gift.
But he's far and away from the only one with a mobility aid or prosthetic!
I haven't figured out Frog entirely yet, but he's going to be the first cat with a "wheelchair" type device, to set up a long line of cats through the generations improving on it
(Probably not much more than a reinforced canvas or durable leather, as this was the age of very early flax processing)
Wildfur's the next in the big advancements, even making the Great Journey in his own and getting a side story based around Littlecloud and Cinderpelt collaborating over this
The device is then improved upon by Jessy for Briarlight, giving her a level of independence and confidence that she needs to finally cut her mom out until she learns how to behave
Deadfoot has a brace for his front paw because the joint is loose (it was based on a friend's carpel tunnel bracelet) which is affectionately referred to as The Bonker; his name is also now an Honor Title (Old name: Hoprunner) for inventing a battle move by distracting with his good paw, and then SLAMMING his other limb down hard on his opponent. It's called "deadfooting."
I think mobility devices are super important, usually massively improve quality of life, and I just enjoy designing them, so the choice to portray Thunder Storm's as negative was a very deliberate one that I did in response to what I thought was a desire in representation. Even the fact it's a hind-leg prosthetic was thought out, since those have a much higher satisfaction rate in humans than hand prosthetics, but in a cat would probably be the opposite.
Still, I'm not missing a limb, so now with all of that context presented, do you still think the same thing? Should I just add even more limb prosthetics to make the ratio of satisfied prosthetic users vs Thunder Storm even steeper?
Sunlit Frost is actually going to have a bite on his good paw go septic (the other side has permanent damage from the fire). I could have that paw get amputated and have Thunderstar "return the favor" for how Sunlit Frost created the prosthetic he rejected by helping him build his own. A pawsthetic, if you will
OR would it be better to just remove the subplot of Thunder Storm grappling with/rejecting a prosthetic that is unfitting for him entirely, and have all prosthetics be 100% treated as positive in the narrative?
