One thing I REALLY love about Ortho and his gears is that everyone who makes them has a very unique style to how they approach them.
Idia takes a very practical route: sturdy and realistic proportions, with aesthetics that stay grounded and true to whatever they’re based on but with Ortho’s body type in mind.
Ortho himself gets more creative; his designs focus much more on the aesthetic of the setting he is using it for than practicality, and he heavily prioritizes realism in how it behaves (as seen in his bunny vignette).
Mama Shroud goes absolutely all in on her own personal aesthetic, making him very sleek and cool with unique joints while also showing signs of being optimized for the situation if you look closely.
Playful Land’s magic pushes his body much more than it can with the others’ clothing: his body has much more realism in his clothing to the others (his groovy shows he even has trouser seams, something no other design of his has), while also giving thin joints in the arms and very sturdy legs to push the toy soldier look of how his body isn’t organic. Additionally, being magic and aesthetic only, he is still allowed the practicality present in his college gear.
Idk. I just think it’s a REALLY cool detail that reveals a lot about Ortho, his familial relationships, and the types of setting he’s in.

I live! And I'm writing a fic
Hello, everyone! :) I've re-started the process of moving this blog over to a side blog (@darkeneddawning) when I have time. End goal is to have all my art and stuff from here over there, so my main blog (this one) can be used for everything. The side blog will be where I post new phandom art and stuff.
Hopefully the transfer isn't too confusing for everyone. If you want to follow me to see my phandom art and stuff, you might want to wait until my side blog is all caught up, or you'll be spammed with me reblogging all of my old art over there for the next while. I'll announce on this blog when it's done and wait at least a week so people have time to unfollow this blog if they don't want my reblogs of everything I like to clutter up their dashes.
But I'm too impatient to wait until I'm done with that before I start posting again, so here's a blurb from the DP x DC Circus Gothica crossover fic I'm writing! It's going to be a while before I can post it since I've got a lot going on and I'm a very slow writer so far, but I'm hoping posting about it will keep me motivated to continue working on it :)
It's not a very long blurb, but I'll put it under a read more anyway (along with a synopsis of the fic):
Fic synopsis:
Wait, but if I’m mind controlled, and you’re mind controlled, then who’s catching the evil ringmaster??
Jason wasn’t expecting to join the suspicious circus he was investigating on Dick’s behalf, but a day in found him planning a heist with his new posse of co-slaves. At least getting in on the action gave him the answers he was looking for, as well as some others to questions he’d forgotten he was still asking.
Or: A new circus rolls into Bludhaven, trailing a history of too many pilfered towns to be a coincidence. Dick asks Jason to look into it on account of Dick’s circus related trauma. Jason was expecting to find evidence, not a one-way ticket to minion town, or a mysterious boy who somehow calmed the insatiable waters of the pit. Who is this boy, and what can he teach Jason about himself?
----
Though he felt compelled to come, he didn’t know what was wanted of him now that he was here.
“This area is off limits to guests. Can I help you?”
That reaper kid from the performance, head attached, was looking at Jason with a raised brow. The same Red color that was swirling around Jason’s brain occupied the kid’s irises. Now he was up close, Jason could see how the kid’s stage eyeliner was only a slight enhancement to the genuine dark circles under his eyes. With those in addition to the gaunt hollowness of his cheeks, the kid looked like he hadn’t slept in years.
Jason smiled. It wasn’t a natural smile, but the Red liked it. “I’m here to, uh… cross over to the dark side?” That was all the Red was giving him to work with.
Reaper kid squinted at him, then drew back in surprise. “Woah, I totally thought you were human. Is that a disguise?” he asked, walking up to Jason.
“Disguise?” Jason glanced down at his body like it would clue him in to what reaper kid was talking about. He looked plenty human to himself. “What else would I be?” Was this important to the Red’s mission? Red was starting to feel a little more impatient.
“Uh, you know,” the kid gave a dismissive hand wave, but clarified: “Dead?”

OKAY OKAY! I know we all joke about Minthara and the skull being a Hamlet reference but I have actively TALKED about Hamlet on this blog before and we need a moment to reference this in a serious way, because the entire story of Hamlet is basically, get this, A STORY ABOUT AN OATH OF VENGEANCE!! And there is LOVE there is family murder, and someday I will go into a post about how aspects of Minthara's character has her represent different facets of this story because she is- by all means HAMLET, but she is also Ophelia, she is also Daisy Ridley's Ophelia.
I can also tell you EXACTLY what she is contemplating when she is 'contemplating a skull' because that particular soliloquy is LITERALLY a speech about death, and the musing of what follows it, questioning whether you deeds are worth it, the SUFFERING is worth all of this trouble if you're just going to fucking die. LIKE!!!!!!! IM FUCKING FERAL ABOUT IT! YOU GUYS HAVE NO IDEA!!!!!!!!
