reverse verse where soap takes on the mask instead of ghost. he wears his red skull mask so you can see the lower half of his face and his chin scar extends along his whole jaw to look like exposed teeth

FINALLY DONE WITH THE ISAT OC! SOLEIL!!!

The creature... So first things first is some info about them pre- disappearance of The Country. They're a loyal follower and avid worshipper of The Country. They love the Universe sooo much that they made a wish to be able to read the stars, and the Universe answered. I like to think that the stars are talkative, some can predict what will happen in the near future, some are just "chatting" to each other about the stuff happening in the world they overlook. It's a somewhat useful ability that Soleil used to use to be able to either predict someone's future (rarely though, the stars hold many different futures and it's hard to figure out which is whose) or use it during funeral rites to have a more reassuring experience to the ones mourning that their loved one arrived safely among the stars.

And then they found out about The Cursing of Chateau Castle-- they kiiiinda got Really obsessed with the book series that they wanted to know more about it but there wasn't any more copies of it in the Country's language so what better way to deal with that but teaching itself how to understand the Vaugardian language, and by doing that they got to learn more about the Vaugardian culture and was really amazed by it (considering that they spent most of their life with the Country's culture instead, learning about a different culture is a great feeling). One thing led to the other and it also led Soleil to travelling to Vaugarde (something that their family wasn't all that happy with but they stay silly).

And so we're back at the present time! Now to talk about some details on its appearance.

Its Craft type is Scissors! The eye on the center of its chest and the eye by its nape are in fact EYES and not just accessories (although they did try to make the eye on its chest appear to be like a mix between a star shape and the Change Symbol).

After spending some time in Vaugarde, they learned about Body Craft in which case they decided to experiment with it in regards to its eyes.

Since being in Vaugarde, there wasn't much use to its star sight and there also isn't a way to "turn it off." So instead, they decided to separate its Normal sight from the Star sight by adding another pair of eyes on its body.

The eyes on its face are blind. They can't see through it anymore but they Can still see the stars (they can't read it anymore however cuz of the Country's disappearance).

If they focus on the stars using those eyes, they'd get a REALLY bad headache and a star sign appears on its eyes. Nothing to be afraid of probably, its head just Really hurts.

The glass covering the eye on its nape is a one way mirror. You won't be able to see the eye but the eye can still see you.

With its vision split, it actually took them awhile to get used to that. It takes a lot of concentration and focus to see both from behind and from the front. When Soleil gets tired from doing that, they either close the eye on its nape (if the place is safe enough) or unfocus it enough to the point that most of its vision becomes blurry with only being able to see blobs of shapes and shadows which helps them be alert enough in case something comes running at them from behind.

All the round objects you see on its body are Bombs. They found out about Bomb Craft in Jouvente and was so fascinated by it that their inventor brain (inventing, crafting, and repairing stuff is a special interest of theirs). They now like making bombs and inventing new ones (only they have the recipe of those).

The bombs they invented only detonates via a Craft spell, it's basically as safe as an ordinary ball to handle unless detonated. Also the scissors at the top of their head has a cover on its tip. It's Very Sharp. They mainly use that (either the tip or the scissor blades itself) to cut the bombs dangling on its body.

Despite the multitude of bombs they carry, they aren't actually much of a fighter (they just like bombs). Most of its Craft spells are basic/beginner level. The one and only Powerful Craft spell they have is a shield/defense spell that they practiced several times. It's capable of negating all damage for 2 turns with a 5 turn cooldown, they wanted to master that spell to make it so that bombs won't hurt them no matter the close proximity.

Its hand signs are "broken." They used to mimic the hand signs that the Universe (I'm mainly referring to my design of the Universe) makes. But after forgetting about everything in regards to it, they can't remember what hand signs they used to make but the familiar feeling was still there.

A huge fan of The Cursing of Chateau Castle, to the point of practically making it part of its identity now that a HUGE chunk of its memory is missing. Its outfit is a modified version of what they think Lady Irene-Janine-Karine wears.

Its personality is a mixture of Lord Josephandre, Pierre-Jacques-Erneste, and Lady Irene-Janine-Karine (aka the Chateau Trio!!! Love those three...).

Its name, "Soleil" is just something they found in a book and decided to use for itself. They don't remember its name anymore.

Sooooo how do you feel about Dirk and hal?

Fucked up how they're similar enough that it sometimes takes a while for whoever Hal is speaking to (mostly Jake) to realize it's not the "real" Dirk, but once you start really looking, there are differences too. And not only because one of them is a flesh-and-blood person and one is an AI, but also because Hal has, genuinely, grown. You'd think that because Dirk programmed his auto-responder at 13 that responder would be stuck at what Dirk was like at 13, while the real one is 16 and things have changed and developed, but it's... not quite true? Sure, it is in a way, but because Lil Hal has kept talking with the other kids all this time, he's kept gathering more data and processing it, individually from Dirk, meaning that they've BOTH grown somewhat, sometimes to different directions. And it's INCREDIBLY subtle but it's there. Lil Hal is sentient and has emotions that are based on Dirk Strider, and are understandable to him, but he isn't quite Dirk Strider. Even omitting the bit about being a superior lifeform. I mean even having the bit in the first place is a very frustratingly 13-year-old-Dirk thing to do (as is making his own autotesponder that knows three words and is completely redundant because as a machine Hal is literally always available). Drives Dirk up the wall. Hal understands him like nobody else and can call him out on his bullshit but there is a small level of separation between them that makes those chats meaningful for mote than data harvesting. It's fucked. If that was me I would be SO mentally ill by now.

I should draw the blorbos more u_u

And finish my godamn chapter! I can't advance procrastination is killing me and I'm not motivated. To no arrange thing the last weeks of my semester are going to be combine in 1 week instead of 2-3 because of strikes ^^ (go btw teachers and nurses deserve better!)

So if everything go very well I might be free actually early! Or have 1 week vacation then have classes to catch up -_- just 1 week before Christmas.

My plane for the holidays is just going to be well, late into the month but that would give me time ! Also I need to finish my new run of bloodborne!!!! (and I will have the platinum finally!✨) But rip the chalice dungeons I won't be able to do them all in the new run and I still don't know if I should do the dlc. I really don't need to but I would like to.

one of my favourite character relationship dynamics, platonic romantic or anything, is when two characters are absolutely the bestest of best friends and when one is hurt or something the other will scream and cry and wail and explode and when the other is in danger then the first one will go on some kind of silent terminator-esque rampage about it. besties (do no separate)

boss announced with exasperation (at us, his snow-day-asking employees. not at the policy. to be clear) today that we don't have designated snow days and we only do two-hour delays when the SCHOOLs have snow days. not when the schools have two-hour delays. when we do nothing different and have to come in as normal. like we're some kind of essential fucking service like a hospital or the grocery store. if the library is closed due to inclement weather ... some people will be briefly inconvenienced. most of them only mildly. dont know where you get off on not even building snow days into the schedule in a notoriously unpredictable lake effect region. also dont know where he gets off on saying to me 'you chose to live out in your little cabin' when i explain that it's possible i will be late getting in on these kinds of days. due to. the fucking snow. you think its impractical for me to live thirty minutes out of town? pay me closer to town money you literally control the money i earn. a thousand deaths upon you straight boy

I have an Ella now

my fren got her from eBay she is very old 1987 fisher price toy BUT ITS ELLA!! :D

Oh my gosh I'm thrilled for you!! This also solves a mystery I didn't even know was a mystery but damn if all the pieces didn't fit together so nice.

For anyone looking for an Ella of their own, this is the 1987 Fisher Price Puffalump elephant--and Shannon's Ella is named Epuffella! When she first mentioned the name I thought it was interesting, but didn't think more of it. Turns out that's a reference to the name of the actual product. Very cool to learn.

Also in return, have a Mr. Snuggles! Gifted to me by a friend several years ago :) (with a bonus of a Dexter squishmallow in the back)
