Reuploading these but together now.

[just-absolutely-super]

Was initially thinking of making Addy (my OC who is meant to be a rival to Mayl) the operator of Starman (because his moveset in 4.5 is similar to Roll, making them parallels in a way)

But like…Addy’s aesthetic does not fit Starman’s at all asfghdj

Like you look at a Navi and then you’ll see the operator and you think, “Oh yeah this makes sense” because the aesthetics match!

I could change Addy’s clothes to match in line with how Starman looks but even then she just doesn’t fit

there are laws in rhode island we simply do not follow like collectively we have decided to not. 10 miles over the speed-limit is not speeding. spending the whole drive in the high speed lane? totally acceptable, unless you're going the speed limit, then move tf over. when i was 11 we took a trip to washington dc and got flagged down by a cop for j-walking but the second he heard my grandparents' rhode island accents he let us off with a warning because he fucking knew where we come from is a lawless land

[noeggets]

felt like drawing my kids, sorta AU cause i drew them kinda different half my designs, i aged up the navi's sorta

information about them bc it's long and self indulgent from me talking to my friend

Enzan

Age: 11 (but turns 12 before Lan does making him slightly older and he will use this in a argument if he wants to)

I HC him french because of his english name they just moved to Dentech city at some point

Protoman

Age: in his 40's. 2 or 3 years younger then Enzan's father.

Backstory He was Enzan's mom's Navi (her name is Glace bc i watched the dub but apparently this website believes Enzan's english translated name is a swear word but his name on his wiki means Hot Blaze or something like that but it's french so his mom is french that is the HC i will stand on) i diagress, when she passed he was given to Enzan

other information: His Navi model was discontinued because it was buggy and glitchy, nobody could fix it (nobody wanted to try) so they just stop using whatever AI brain chip he has to make Navi's like him. He dislikes Enzan's father because he feels like he should have never got his original netop pregnant because she was sickly and giving birth is what ended her life he believes because she was ill he whole heartedly believes that what it was however the exchange was Enzan and he loves that child as his own, very rough relationship with Enzan's father

Lan

Age: 11

other information: His Mom and Dad are divorced because Yuichiro loves his work more then anything excluding Lan and Megaman he loves his kids. they are still friends and love Lan equally. Lan lives with his mom Megaman used to live with their dad in his testing phase but he's in Lan's PET so he lives with Lan and his Mom now. his original home is at Yuichiro lab, the PET and Lan's Computer is his new home he is able to jump to whichever he decides. His dad is Netopian/American

Megaman

Age: age unknown youth model - He hasn't existed that long but at the same time he was created to be around Lan's age

Backstory

created from the dna of deceased twin of lan hub. technically he is a twin but he isn't Hub he is a copy created with the DNA. He is not Hub tho.

other information: he doesn't understand social cues and tends to speak his mind, he is wiser then Lan but not knowledgeable in subjects people/Navi's his age should know about. He can solve complex problems and understand wrong from right but when it starts becoming being a world experience issue he can't really help you

Maylu

Age: 11 (older then Lan younger then Enzan, taller then Lan brags about it sometimes)

other information: American/Netopian, has whatever an american accent would be called in this world, she had a hard to learning Japanese but can speak it fluidly, cannot write it that well. Very chill at the same time the loudest person in the room if bothered. Likes this kid name Zackery in their school cough Zero COUGH he has a whole story that he is Willy's son who Willy turned into a Navi but nobody knows it yet

Roll

Age: youth model around 16 or 18

Backstory

Normal custom edited Navi from base youth model in stores no interesting background

other information: adapted the traits of being kinda selfish and needy. It's hard for her to stand not having her way, very girly Maylu did not make her this way she just developed a personality outside of her environment because she does not act anything like Maylu this is not a bad thing but it isn't a good thing either lol we love roll still

[neogandw]

The pains of being the older one.

She'll learn eventually.

I figured I could use the BN side every now and then, and this was a silly idea to put out there with Idol.EXE and Melody, her NetOp.

[you-cant-fuck-megaman]

friend got me the Battle Network Legacy Collection

Battle Network isn't my favorite series in the franchise, but I like it quite a lot and so it's been a lot of fun zipping through the games again and one of the biggest things i like about it are the redesigned takes on existing Robot Masters, particularly the way they get split into two components: a human avatar and a network avatar. a humansona and a netsona. a persona and a fursona, if you will.

one of my favorite things about shounen anime is that everyone has a fucking Gimmick. nobody just casually likes baseball--they also have to wear jerseys everywhere, scream all hot-blooded about the necessity of teamwork, eat dinner off of the home plate, and sleep with their bat on a pillow stuffed with balls. some people will say this is unrealistic, but those people have clearly never talked to a Pokémon fan. plus, y'know, that's what most kids and teenagers do: they find something cool and feel the need to bring it up at every opportunity, because they're growing and want approval for their burgeoning interests. meanwhile, i fucking love it when people are passionate about their interests and make it their entire personality.

so in my opinion, the best Battle Network designs are ones that lean into this and are complimentary on both the NetOp side and the NetNavi side, both of them coalescing around a singular Gimmick and leaning into it with the subtlety of a hammer. Dex and GutsMan.EXE are great because Dex is all in on "guts" as a concept, acting primarily with his heart and charging straight through, representing both an overwhelming emphasis on strength and his misplaced confidence in sheer machismo. Count Zap is basically the best fucking character in existence, both as a compliment to ElecMan.EXE and as a standalone villain, and the anime only made him even better.

there's the stinkers, of course. Speedy Dave is a complete nothingburger of a character, to the point where both the games, anime, and manga have completely different takes on him that head up in entirely separate directions, and with QuickMan.EXE having absolutely no relation to any of them. both Mayl and Roll.EXE suffer from needing to be The Girl for their dedicated character gimmick, as written by people who think that Being A Girl is enough of a personality trait to write about this year. WHEW. time to take the season off.

but there's always going to be stinkers. that's kind of the downfall with any long-running series that A: needs to consistently put out Moar Content and B: focus on character designs first and foremost and fleshing them out second. they're showcases to get you to engage with the gameplay, and then the manga/anime have to pick up the slack after the fact. it's like being handed a glass cylinder and then being told "make this useful"--there's only so much shit an anime can do with a glass cylinder, and they sure as fuck aren't going to make it a dildo.

i keep dropping the anime, i really should continue it and see it through further. it's not awful, just a very generic shounen most of the time; i keep wanting it to be unnecessarily overdramatic like the BN manga or completely fucking unhinged like Ruby Spears Megaman, and it really isn't that

Cybernetics & Body Mods - Home DR

I mentioned in my intro post that I work as someone who makes and attaches cybernetics + does body mods. Someone on discord said they were interested in what type of modifications are common in my home planet, so I'm making a more cohesive list here using my friends as examples || The ones with a <3 next to it were done by me

My Husband ➤ Eye implant | His right eye is made out of amethyst. He is blind in it. He was exposed to certain chemicals that lead to a disease that causes your eyes to rot, but the doctors caught it and removed the eye before it spread. So I made him a new eye of his choosing <3

Kurash ➤ Subdermal Armour Plating | Underneath the skin that's visible, he has a layer of metal-plated armour. This is common for folks who don't want to fully commit to being cyborgs, or want to appear mostly human ➤ EmoTECH | This is technology all out-planet CII's (basically our version of spies? Kinda?? Ugh there isn't a similar word in English) receive, it basically allows them to have full control of the chemicals within their bodies and to add or deplete them at will

Megara ➤ Cybernetic's | The lower half of her jaw is a metal implant and she has one metal arm <3 ➤ Artificial Horns | A very popular cosmetic surgery that echoes the classic demon look <3 ➤ Glow In The Dark Tattoo's | CII's aren't allowed them so Meg asked me for some as soon as she retired 😌 <3

Persephone ➤ Cosmetics | She ran away from her home and asked me to give her a new identity which included: New hair, eye colour, voice and height <3

Legatus ➤ Cybernetics | All four of his limbs are metal <3 ➤ EmoTECH | I've given him an honourary title of fellow ASPDer because he chooses to change his emotional chemicals to mimic it (except for the impulsivity factor) since it's easier to do CII work when you don't have empathy

Uki ➤ GITDT | He also has tattoo's that glow in the dark, a lot more than Meg does <3 ➤ Optic Cosmetic Surgery | He can change the colour of his eyes at will via a type of holographic overlay <3

Mods Anyone Who Wants To Survive Is Outfitted With At Birth/While Growing Up

➤ All-Terrain Lung Filters | This mod includes lengthening the torso to create space for enlarged lungs outfitted with technology to detoxify air. Surgery done at age 8. Because of this, the typical adult is 190-205cm tall. ➤ Adaptive Temperature Changing | Since it's always dark here (no sun) apart from man made lights, it's COLD. Or would be, but it isn't because we can perfectly control our bodies temperature. Surgery done before the baby leaves the hospital. ➤ NetOP | Short for Network Optics. It connects your eyes directly to the world wide web and you can blink it on and off. Usually, this is given around the age of 14.

There is SO MUCH MORE but this post is long enough already, I'll gladly answer any questions 💕

[maelkogvildeblomster]

Taget i betragtning hvad der (ikke) sker på @soelvfisk’s profil, så har jeg lyst til at sige, at uanset hvordan man har det nu, så kan det blive bedre. Det er 2 år siden at jeg fik at vide, af min psykiater, at hvis ikke jeg begyndte at tage antidepressiv medicin, så ville jeg ikke overleve.

Heldigvis var der en spinkel følelse af (meget meget spinkel tho) at min mor ville blive ulykkelig hvis jeg ikke var her.

Det sætter virkelig mit liv i perspektiv. Jeg har det stadig ikke altid godt, men jeg vil gerne være her. Har tænkt meget på Soelvfisk, og jeg ønsker mig så meget, at vedkommende fortsat er her, så h*n kan komme over på den lyse side, ligesom jeg gjorde.

Everyone - please just know, at du ER ønsket, du ER smuk, du ER (!) GOD NOK ❤️ Det er IKKE nemmere for dem omkring dig, hvis du ikke er her. Der er mennesker, du endnu ikke har mødt, som kommer til at elske dig for lige netop den du er, med alt det fantastiske, og alt det hårde.

Jeg lover det. Stay ❤️.

Og hvis du bliver i tvivl, så skriv til en fremmed og bliv bekræftet ❤️. Ik, @danishpaddy ? ❤️ (tak for hjælp dengang, btw)

[pastelfarvet]

Vil gerne skrive noget omkring det der har fyldt for mange af os herinde de sidste par dage, men synes fandme det er svært. Det rammer meget ned i at jeg i starten af året mistede et af De Vigtige Mennesker I Mit Liv til en accidental overdosis, hun var i midttyverne og i bedring, og selvom jeg aldrig fulgte hendes tumblr (som i øvrigt ikke var på dansk) var det mærkeligt efterfølgende at se den stå tom, jeg havde ikke regnet med på den måde at blive kastet tilbage i den følelse allerede. Og nogle gange connecter man bare med folk herinde, hvilket også har været tilfældet for mig med S, selvom vi ikke har skrevet med hinanden eller været mutuals længe overhovedet. Så det gør ondt, og jeg håber virkelig stadig på det bedste her.

Mine dm's er altid åbne, og jeg værdsætter virkelig det her fællesskab. Det her er pissesvært, men det er også rart at mærke at jeg ikke er alene om at værdsætte det fællesskab tumblr er for mange af os. Det drukner måske nogle gange i at anonymitet er noget vi værner om, men det er jo netop også del af hvad gør det rart at være her.

[bybarn]

vi danser rundt om kærestetitlen i frygt for at rushe noget der er godt

og i fælles interesse i at holde fast i det der netop er så godt

jeg har en mavefornemmelse om at du kommer til at elske mig lige præcis som jeg vil elskes

så jeg gør mig umage

for jeg vil elske dig mindst lige så godt

[soelvfisk]

Jeg blev engang inviteret på date af et woltbud der havde leveret mad til mig og efterfølgende opsøgte mig på min adresse. Det gik så galt at jeg måtte tale med politiet og woltbuddet blev fyret og stalkede mig i en periode, fordi han ville have at jeg skulle skrive til wolt, at det var min egen skyld at det skete og ikke hans. Jeg fik engang flirty beskeder fra en gls fragtmand der havde leveret en pakke og fundet mit nummer via gdpr-beskyttet data på sin tablet. Jeg kørte engang med et go-more lift, som inviterede mig på date efterfølgende selvom vedkommende havde vielses-ring på. Vedkommende har netop kontaktet mig igen. Halvandet år senere.

Nej. NEJ NEJ NEJ.

Det hele giver mig angst. Forstår det godt. Angsten. Den slags male gaze gør mig bange for at blive drugged i byen igen eller voldtaget igen. At blive valgt igen. Det giver mig følelsen af at jeg har ansvaret for at ligne én man ikke vil vælge, hvis jeg vil være tryg. Men det er i sidste ende ligegyldigt. For det er adfærden, der gør nas og alle kan blive valgt. Føler at jeg kun er tryg indenfor. Engang følte jeg mig også tryg på insta, men så mødte jeg stenen som var utryg online på various måder og toppede den med at blokere mig og bagefter dele en video af min krop i bikini. Mig, stort set uden tøj på. Politiet siger, tag det som et kompliment! Brækker mig.

Kan godt forstå at jeg panikker ved tanken om at være andres ejendom. Og at jeg frygter at blive rask og køn igen. For det har mest gjort ondt på mig at have en sund krop. Er kvinde. Så min krop føles utryg uanset hvad jeg gør. Fordi det ikke er op til mig hvordan andre behandler mig. Det er ikke op til mig om jeg er tryg. Sådan føles det.

Hej PTSD. Hej traumerespons. Kan vi finde en måde at co-eksistere på, hvor jeg får lov at spise og sove og leve og ses med trygge mennesker og have en eller anden form for overskud? Kunne vi ikke lave en aftale om at jeg gør mit bedste for at passe på mig selv og opfylde basic needs, og at så kan du få dine flashbaks og have din angst på måder der ikke komplet destruerer mig? Kunne du skabe nogle frie bobler hvori jeg ikke skal bekymre mig? Bare i ny og næ? Hist og pist? Og så lover jeg at lære af mine fejl og finde tryghed i de ting jeg rent faktisk har kontrol over, bit by bit? Kunne det ikke være en idé? Vil gerne mødes på midten<3

Mini crack

Roll: did you get the chance to talk to Lan? I didn't get the chance with Mayl unfortunately

Mega: yeah, I got the chance

Roll: oh? Then why do you look so shocked?

Mega: he's actually planned his future far ahead....

Roll: oh? I guess that's a bit shocking. I didn't expect this from him to be honest. What kind of plans do he have

Mega: very big ones!

Roll: huh?

Mega: You said Mayl mentions getting married, right? What has she said about that?

Roll: Not much, just that she wants to get married someday, and hopefully to Lan. Why? Did Lan mention marriage?

Mega: He did...

Roll: Oh, that's great! So he does plan on marrying Mayl someday?

Mega: Yeah, and someday is sooner than we think

Roll: How soon?

Mega: 20

Roll: EH?!

Mega: Yeah...

Roll: Oh man...Mega we need to make sure our wedding books are updated STAT!

Mega: Way ahead of you, Roll! Let's get to work!

[blondinehjerne]

Jeg har det problem at jeg kan altid sove, indtil jeg SKAL sove - som i når jeg har ansvar og forpligtelser der hviler på mig i de tidlige morgentimer. Så jeg tænkte på om nogen kunne have nogle gode råd?? har overvejet at købe en tyngdedyne, fordi det jo lige netop er stress over ikke at kunne sove, der gør at jeg ikke kan sove

[vingefang]

Det er snart et år siden at H og jeg slog op. Jeg skrev ni måneder, men jeg tog fejl. Det var ti og tiden går meget hurtigt. Jeg taler ikke meget om ham i virkeligheden, skriver bare herinde når jeg tænker på ham (ikke hver gang, jeg tænker stadig på ham ofte, det er ikke farligt). Vi har ikke haft kontakt. Og den sidste kontakt vi havde var i april, hvor jeg skrev tillykke med fødselsdagen. og før det: i marts hvor han skrev tillykke med fødselsdagen. og før det jul og nytår og før det: vi var stadig sammen. jeg tænker meget på at skrive til ham. spørge om vi skal mødes og tale. jeg tænkte på det hele sommeren og turde ikke. jeg tør ikke. måske netop derfor burde jeg gøre det. jeg ved ikke hvad jeg vil, måske bare ikke være bange for at møde ham på gaden hele tiden når jeg er steder hvor han kunne være. måske spørge om nogle ting. måske også bare sige nogle ting. sige: jeg har tænkt så meget på dig og savnet dig. sige: vi havde det fineste breakup og jeg var helt ødelagt, men vi kunne ikke give hinanden noget godt længere. sige: jeg savnede dig så meget og jeg fattede ingenting. jeg ventede på dig i lang tid efter, håbede at du fortrød. sige: jeg blev så sur på dig, jeg synes at du havde været så tarvelig og jeg kan stadig tænke tilbage på tidspunkter og synes at du var så uretfærdig. sige: det er okay, vi var begge et mærkeligt sted. sige: det er okay.

jeg er meget bange for at se ham, fordi jeg frygter at det vil ødelægge mig. jeg har været tæt på, men også hele tiden arbejdet imod det. ødelæggelsen. jeg har ikke på noget tidspunkt rigtigt tænkt eller troet på, at det var fordi jeg ikke var god nok. jeg har hele tiden troet på, at jeg gjorde mit bedste og jeg gjorde alt jeg kunne. jeg er meget stolt og jeg har meget respekt for mig selv. men den følelse, af utilstrækkelighed, har ligget og luret. den gør det endnu. og jeg kan godt føle, at jeg ikke rigtigt har set den i øjnene, at jeg også har været fej. måske kommer den slet ikke når jeg ser ham, forhåbentlig ikke, men det er det jeg er bange for at den gør. både fx ved hvis han har fået en ny kæreste, det ville tale lige ind i usikkerheden: det var mig den var gal med. (jeg tror selvfølgelig ikke rigtigt på, at det er sådan det fungerer, det var os begge den var gal med, eller ingen af os, det er samme logik). men også bare at se hans ansigt. det er stadig ham jeg tænker på først, når der sker noget godt eller dårligt. eller noget sjovt. det er mærkeligt.

jeg er også bange for, at han vil sige nej til at mødes. eller at han ikke tænker på mig overhovedet. at han er ligeglad. at det er derfor han ikke selv har skrevet. det burde ikke være vigtigt, men det er jo vigtigt. jeg håber ikke at det er sådan. jeg håber at det er ud af respekt måske. omsorg. kærlighed. han sagde at han elskede mig lige inden han tog hjem og så har jeg ikke set ham siden.

mine venner siger at jeg har en enorm viljestyrke. de siger at jeg er modig.

jeg har også været meget modig. jeg er modig. jeg er ikke bange for særlig mange ting. men der er alligevel lidt.

jeg har fået et crush på nogen, det føles altid særligt og jeg får det ikke ofte og har ikke haft det meget det sidste år. nu prøver jeg og øver mig i at være modig i det, på den måde jeg nu kan!

Jeg er bare inputs? Tænker jeg ikke først og fremmest som mig selv!? Er jeg en organisk ai? Suk. Nøj hvor jeg ikke orker. Var jeg ikke lige kommet frem til at jeg netop har fat i mig selv. At mine sider er præcis det. Sider. Mens jeg er ringbindet. Nye sider af mig i nye kapitler af verden. Samlet i ringbind. Min egen historicitet.
