#sillyguy hours

[ithinkimightbeagoose]

I have gay Converse, a spell jar and a complete and utter lack of a moral compass

but I have a necklace that I haven't taken off for about a month and counting, shitty piano skills, and a maybe delusional friendship with the WIND so I think that counts for something

id: a stylized, digital painting of robo-ky from guilty gear. he’s shown from his head to a little below the shoulders, facing the viewer and holding a tangerine in front of his face, which obscures it partially. he’s wearing a white button up with the sleeves rolled up. the background shows trees, a blue but slightly cloudy sky and the sun in the upper right corner. end id

Hi hi hi divorce speedrun or sillyguy hours? 👀👀👀

HIIII HI MWAH i already posted divorce speedrun here, so sillyguy hours is the artistic rendition of one of the Top 10 Zhu Silly Goofy Moments who had me hooting and hollering

[lifesteal-headcanons]

branzy should be the only person on lifesteal who can't sew. That cringefail man can, like, barely stitch up tears and rips and it looks awful every time. It's why he always wears the same thing (also he has like 20 duplicates of the same outfit he got somewhere all at once the only way to tell the difference is the horrible mending jobs done throughout them)

Clown takes one look at him trying for two hours to fix a tiny ass rip anyone else could mend in five minutes flat and just. Sighs deeply and takes it from him to fix it. (He's especially good at mending clothes because his fighting style requires tanking some hits and he gets jumped by so many people at once so often he never escapes without massive rips in his outfit. Also hes a dramatic sillyguy and will absolutely spend days just making extravagant outfits for stupid occasions like meeting up with a friend he sees weekly or killing some randoms on a pvp practice server. He's gotta look his best when he beats the shit out of normies /silly)

((alternatively neither of them can sew and it's awful for all parties involved))

Quarterfinals: Match 4

Zagreus (Hades) vs. Vash the Stampede (Trigun 98/Trigun Maximum)

Zagreus

- i have a spreadsheet with which i grade my favorite characters based on a set of criteria that they all tend to share, the first two categories being “Red” and “Black.” out of 50+ characters zagreus is #1 with a score of 940, which is clear of the runner up by over 150 points. i won’t claim to be some kind of arbiter of truth about red and black characters, but actually that’s exactly what i’m going to do. if shadow the hedgehog doesn’t win then zagreus will.

Vash the Stampede

- VASH THE STAMPEDE MY BESTFRIEND VASH THE STAMPEDE :] If I actually enumerated everything that makes me insane about him we’d be here for hours so I will simply say: extremely strong contender for Most tortured sillyguy I’ve ever laid eyes on and he just means So Much to me♡ Best red/black aesthetics are in trigun maximum imo but all versions of him are wonderful thank you for the consideration mwah - Vash is a weird alien plant thing that helps people vigilante style, but he kinda sucks at it so ended being labeled as a major criminal instead, also he has a twin brother who wants to annihilate the human race and vash tries really hard to stop him because he love humans

mod notes: it's kind of funny to me that zagreus is even still in this competition. there is a lot of yellow in that design

re: last anon i definitely think it comes from the uhhh whole threatened thingy. Since most of y3 is. Well. Uhm. Daigo Coma Hours we spend a lot of time w/ that guy in a threatened state. Hence the more “violent” interpretations bc. Well. his sillyguy’s in a coma. Though I’ve definitely seen Mine’s more… stressed (for lack of better words) state being misinterpreted as his natural state and I can see how that would lead to more frequent violent kirinmine takes etc. (Hopefully this is coherent I am soooooooooo tired rn)

[highpriestofptah]

General Huy Headcanons

Some Prince of Egypt head canons for my favourite sillyguy magical man informed by historical and literary accounts of Ancient Egyptian culture, the Tanakh, and apocrypha.

Huy's name is for the girls—and the boys. It’s unisex!

Hui or Huy was an ancient Egyptian name, frequently a nickname for Amenhotep. Famous bearers include: Huy, priestess during the Eighteenth dynasty, mother-in-law of Thutmose III; Huy, High Priest of Ptah during the reign of Ramesses II; Huy, viceroy of Kush during the reign of Ramesses II. [source]

Huy was actually a high priest of Ptah.

Huy was a High Priest of Ptah during the reign of Ramesses II. Huy is known from two shabtis (now in the Louvre) dedicated at an Apis burial in the Serapeum of Saqqara. The Apis burials are dated to years 16 and 30.[1] Huy may have served as High priest of Ptah from approximately year 2 to year 20 of the reign of Ramesses II. Huy was succeeded by Pahemnetjer. In pop culture, One of the advisors to Pharaoh in The Prince of Egypt (1998) is named Huy. [source]

Huy is based on the actual Egyptian magician in the Book of Exodus/Shmot who is named Jambres.

Jannes and Jambres, two legendary Egyptian sorcerers whose names appear in various sources as the adversaries of Moses. Jewish tradition seems to identify them with the sorcerers mentioned in Exodus 7:11... The names also appear in pagan Greek and Roman literature. Both Pliny (Natural History, 30:11) and Apuleius (Apologia, 90) mention the name of Jannes only, the former including him in a list of Jewish sorcerers the first of whom is Moses, while the latter names him immediately after Moses in a list of famous magicians. Both Jannes and Jambres… are mentioned and discussed in detail by Numenius, the neo-Pythagorean philosopher (quoted in Eusebius, Praeparatio Evangelica, 9:8; cf. Origines, Contra Celsum, 4:51). They are described as Egyptian priests who excelled in wizardry at the period of the "expulsion" of the Jews from Egypt and as having been considered by the Egyptians capable of rescuing their country from the disasters brought upon it by Musaeus (Moses). [source]

Huy was full-time as opposed to part-time since he was the high priest.

With the exception of the high priest, most priests worked only part-time.  The priesthood was divided into "hours" and served only one month out of every four. The rest of the time, they lived their normal lives in society, often working as mid-level bureaucrats. [source]

He lived in the temple complex.

During their religious service, priests lived within the complex of the temples of their deity. [source]

His beard is an accessory! He shaves completely every 3 days, but he can still wear hair as a fashion choice. Slay!

Oddly, though, they also retained a fascination for facial hair, or at least the appearance of having some. The Egyptians took shorn hair and sheep's wool and fashioned them into wigs and fake beards — which, even more oddly, were sometimes worn by Egyptian queens as well as kings [source: Dunn]. The fake beards had various shapes, to indicate the dignity and social position of their wearer. Ordinary citizens wore small fake beards about 2 inches (5 centimeters) long, while kings wore their phony whiskers to extravagant lengths and had them trimmed to be square at the end. [source]

His shoes were woven and made of papyrus.

Footwear was the same for both sexes. It consisted of coiled sewn sandals of leatherwork, or for the priestly class, papyrus. Since Egyptians were usually barefoot, sandals were worn on special occasions or at times when their feet might get hurt. [source]

Huy has his own apocryphon that was said to have been written by one of Pharaoh’s officials. Surviving fragments of this apocryphon tells of the adventures of him and his brother. He survives all the plagues, runs away with the Hebrews during the red sea adventure, and converts to Judaism. He has a sad backstory because he has to bury his mother and brother.

Jannes names Jambres as his successor and entrusts him with a secret document. He warns him not to accompany the Egyptian army when it marches against the Hebrews… The Egyptian army is drowned in the Red Sea while pursuing the Hebrews, but Jambres stayed away. Jannes's condition worsens and the family returns to their estate. [source]

All info in block quotes belongs to each respective linked source. A proper references page is on the way.

HOW IS TIME OF BIRTH RELATED TO SILLYGUY ANGSY

[raeygina-george]

ghost and mask for the not-so nice OC ask game? I don’t mind either OC, they are all chill :)

ghost: who or what haunts your oc? what happened? how do they live with their ghosts?

i was gonna try to answer these with some azure but OHOHOHHO I HAVE THE PERFECT LITTLE GUY FOR THIS.

this boy's name is oliver and he is being haunted by a mental manifestation of his dead little sibling. lol

tw for suicide and abuse but long story only kind of short, oliver & his 3 younger siblings grew up in an abusive household. as soon as he turned 18 oliver reported his parents, adopted his siblings, and moved out. but like. that's not the Best financial situation yk? so he was working 40 hours a day 8 days a week at his shitty little post-highschool job and very obviously Not Handling It Well. kye (2nd youngest, about 13 at the time, so not enough to get a legal job) noticed that and was like 'stop being so goddamn self-sacrificial. is there anything i can do to help'. this escalated into a full blown argument in which oliver admitted that kye was a burden (one he was willing to carry, of course, but the fact remains that he called them a burden).

the next morning, oliver discovered kye's dead body along with a note telling him to sell their possessions so oliver could take a couple days off. oliver was obviously fucking distraught; in his eyes, he'd just murdered someone that he loved more than himself. now bc of the nature of the afterlife system in this story, oliver and kye never get to meet again. after they die, kye is able to more or less move on, but oliver doesn't get the catharsis of knowing that it was entirely kye's decision and not his fault specifically. so like. fuck him i guess lmao??? he gets married and has kids and heals from the trauma though so it all works out in the end

mask: does your oc wear a mask, literally or figuratively? what goes on beneath it? is there anyone in their life who gets to see who they are under the mask?

kye's probably the best example of this i can think of, so we're forgetting about oliver now and talking about Kye From The Afterlife Yay.

kye's just a silly goofy little guy! just the silliest guy. annoying as fuck. absolutely terrified of emotional vulnerability. their trademark Sillyguy Attitude is their real personality, yes, but no one actually knows the Depth of their character.... except kyrie. (yes they're both named kyrie dont worry about it ok)

kye and kyrie's dyamic is 'symbiotic gym bros'. kye is teaching kyrie how to rollerskate, kyrie is teaching kye how to backflip, and they're both working towards the goal of being able to do a backflip on rollerskates. but their relationship goes a lot deeper! they're the only people [in the friend group, at least] who know how each other died. cause kyrie's whole thing is that she forgored how she died, and kye is, again, scared of emotional vulnerability. kye learns about kyrie's death from a stranger who went to her school; after A Situation takes place kye opens up about their death & then finally tells kyrie about hers. since they know each other's worst traumas and kyrie has actually seen kye upset, im pretty comfortable with saying kyrie 100% knows the True Kye

[fluffypotatey]

ok so to explain the nosy neighbors, i have to explain the limited life smp. here goes!

the limited life smp was the 4th season of the life series, and took place about a year ago.

the gimmick of this series was that every player had a 24-hour timer ticking down in the bottom right corner of their screen, and once that timer hits zero, their series is over. when your timer is above 16 hours, your name is green, yellow names have between 16 and 8 hours left, and red names have under 8 hours on their clock.

dying will lose you an hour of your time, and killing someone else will add 30 minutes to your own timer. (yellow names are allowed to kill green names, and red names are allowed to kill everyone)

there is also an extra mechanic recycled from the Last Life series (season 2) called the Boogeyman, in which one player with a green or yellow name is randomly selected and basically turned into an assassin- if they don’t kill another green or yellow name before the 3 hour recording session is over, their clock is set to 8 hours and they will be a vulnerable red name.

okay now for the actual nosy neighbors:

the nosy neighbors alliance was made up of two players: pearl (ign Pearlescentmoon, i’ve done a 101 on her before), and bigb (ign bigbst4tz, i don’t think i’ve mentioned him)

this is them:

^ they also had a cat named froggy btw

the nosy neighbors teamed up and built a little tower decorated with frog faces in the middle of most of the other bases (all the better to spy on their neighbors with)

these guys were Extremely silly and also rather goofy, except bigb has some trust/loyalty issues (reputation for being a loner + backstabbing his allies), and pearl was still kind of coming down from double life

so their definition of silly involves a lot of ruining their outside relationships

like every time they form an alliance with another group on the server they go out of their way to antagonize that group

bigb does this little thing where he Loves lying to ppl’s faces and confusing them. so he’ll do something, and then if someone asks him about it he proceeds to casually lie to their face while still Actively Doing It. (and other such hijinks). this pattern drives away most potential allies and has only ever ended badly for him, but he keeps doing it because he’s an impulsive guy! (i for one think he should keep doing it. god forbid sillyguys do anything) (where “anything” means “actively gaslighting your friends for shits and giggles”)

and then pearl keeps switching between being serious and wanting to protect and help bigb (because she’s already won and would rather help him out than watch another teammate die in front of her), and ruining her own outside alliances sillygoofy style (making deals with other teams and then immediately going back on them, or making a trade and turning around to steal the item back)

also both of them are kind of wary of each other and have a healthy dose of trust issues, so their own dynamic is half helping each other with those issues and half enabling each others self destructive habits. AND 100% SILLY GOOFY. AND THEY CARE EACH OTHER

we love toxic friendships that enable their self-destructive tendencies

[red-black-aesthetic-bout]

Round 3: Match 15

Vash the Stampede (Trigun 98/Trigun Maximum) vs. Ranma Saotome (Ranma ½)

Vash the Stampede

- VASH THE STAMPEDE MY BESTFRIEND VASH THE STAMPEDE :] If I actually enumerated everything that makes me insane about him we’d be here for hours so I will simply say: extremely strong contender for Most tortured sillyguy I’ve ever laid eyes on and he just means So Much to me♡ Best red/black aesthetics are in trigun maximum imo but all versions of him are wonderful thank you for the consideration mwah - Vash is a weird alien plant thing that helps people vigilante style, but he kinda sucks at it so ended being labeled as a major criminal instead, also he has a twin brother who wants to annihilate the human race and vash tries really hard to stop him because he love humans

Ranma Saotome

- ranma saotome is the OG trans swag anime/manga protagonist. thanks to a cursed spring, cold water turns him into a girl and hot water turns him back to a boy. he starts out hating this change but only makes half hearted attempts to reverse the curse, and eventually becomes quite comfortable with his female half, acknowledging it was always a part of him. he’s a martial artist, he’s a stupid teenager, he’s rude and prideful but he can also be really sweet and thoughtful, literally everyone is either in love with at least one version of him or they want to kill him, sometimes both. his signature red chinese style outfits and his black hair, dark pants and other black accessories already make him a perfect fit for this tournament, but the real kicker is that in the anime, his hair even changes from black to red when he turns into a girl. although a good chunk of the source material didn’t age well, he means a lot to many trans people who watched/read ranma ½ at a young age, including myself. anyway if this was a martial arts tournament he would win <3
