I tried 5 hour energy for the first time, and man is caffiene nice. I got a second bottle. Turns out your not supposd to have two in a row. Thy should print that bigger because im blind. LOL
I've been thinking up of Obi overblot design. Honestly, I've made so many iterations of the design that I don't like. The concept itself has changed so many times too. But i think I have settled on an idea/ concept i want to base it on.
THe biggest issue I had with the core concept of Obi's overblot is the reason it happens in the first place. TBH I initially wanted it to be just as destructive and flamboyant as the othr OB.
BUT I don't think that really fits his character
The more I get to know Obi, the more I think he is like a tsundere. He has feelings and stuff but he is in capable of communicating them in a meaningful and honest way to others and himself. Unlike the tsundere's default language of anger though, Obi masks his true feelings through hypranalyzing people.
Obi likes puts himself into the position of a watcher, someone who is on the outside looking in. But that contradicts his desire to build connection, so he tries to rationalize all of it by saying that he's just playing along with the story.
The reason he is helping overblots? It's fun! Taking care of Grim? He seems interesting!
But deep down Obi desperately cares about others, even more than himself. Each of the overblotter's stories and experiences hurt but he takes them on because he is an observer. He can't be hurt if he is just watching.
Right?
The facade starts cracking by chapter 6 where things start to get more personal. I think Idia, probably is someone who would be able to speak Obi's language a little. Probably points out his bs a little as they are trying piss each other off.
by the end of ch 6, Obi makes the decision to jump into styx to save grim. And things stop being a story, Obi realizes that he cares about the Grim and the othr NRC students as more than just entertainment.
But here's the thing, Obi has finally realized his care for the people of Twst but he still lacks a lot of self worth. That wonderful combination is the mindspace obi is in when he overblots.
(I will refrain from any ch7 speculation for now. But let me tell you Malleus' overblot is absolutely crushing for Obi)
That has all been the preamble to explain and justify my concept idea.
Obi's overblot would not be loud and destructive. It would be quiet. Peaceful almost, as Obi just quietly lets himself sink into all of the blot he has been collecting. He's powerless to help anyone he cares about, so he quietly let's go. Obi would give up all of himself if it meant that Grim, and the others could get the chance to be happy.
It's a blissful dream.
I would hesitate to call what awakens after that even Obi. Wrapped in soft downy feathers with a gentle smile is the first ever non-magical overblot.
And he's here to help.
LOL this is long. this is mainly for my reference anyway so im going to list some visual design stuff that I'd like to include for future me
angel themes (biblically accurate? nahhh )
smile ( try to contrast it with Obi's usual express, softer curves maybe)
white and black making the core colors. More white though, like blinding amount (gold accents? Maybe?)

Ok… so
I think I want to write something for Austin!elvis. My fic(s) will be based off my interpretation of the movie/movie elvis (not the real one). I have a lot of #feelings and #thoughts about the movie (code for things I’d change/explore more). I’m going back and forth between what “era” in the movie I want to do. Or which to start with if y’all like multiple ideas. One thing about me, I’m gonna ask for feedback. Let me know what stands out. So here are some ideas I’m thinking about. Also I plan on my original characters to be black:
50s: After hitting it big with heartbreak hotel, elvis runs into an old acquaintance and daughter of the preacher that used to live in his hometown. He still feels the scrawny, comic book obsessed boy who used to sneak into her dad’s sermons to hear the choir around oc/reader. A story in which America’s new sex symbol is the seducee and the seemingly sweet preacher’s daughter is the seducer ( feeling extremely inspired by church girl off of Renaissance)
Post Germany/Hollywood era: Thinking she had finally received her big break, oc/reader moves to Los Angeles. Her and Elvis meet then bond over the weird place their careers are in. Emotional cheating (we explore Elvis’s Madonna whore complex)
Hollywood era: Trying to get some good buzz for the 68 special, Steve Binder reaches out to an old friend. Oc/reader is a journalist coming to cover the process/shooting of the special. More emotional cheating. Debating if I want her to be a bit of a whistle blower to how colonel treats Elvis. Also debating if I should give Steve a crush so we can get jealous elvis.
Vegas era: Oc/reader is a backup singer for the shows. Priscilla is sick of being neglected and on her way out; Elvis is spiraling. He starts to fixate on the pretty backup singer that’s nice to him. Toxic!elvis. He mistakes her feeling bad for him/being kind as something more. Oc just wants to make money and get her break (he def dangles helping her with a future solo career in her face)… now she has to deal with a doped up/paranoid/sad elvis yikes.

I barely understand what’s happening in the ep1 of magnus protocol but damn, i love it ok
I’ll get used to the thick accent stuff or… ymm, maybe just being bad at understanding what exactly is happening
