swapping between watching etho s7 and bdubs s5 is going to do permanent damage to my brain

nearly forgot! i'm trying to remember to turn on timelapse recording more often, so while it's just a sketch page, there's a timelapse of the first pic if you're interested ^-^ (flashing img warning, but no colors/palette testing so not as bad as usual? probably.)

once again i forget to start recording until i've already started but nevermind that not super interesting given it's a sketch page but i know some of yall just think the process is neat :)

[stillness138]

visual/art things in the Hades 2 technical test i don't like

it was said and is being said already that most of the character sprites have less dynamic poses, or that Aphrodite's face looks, for the lack of a better term, yassified,... it's actually quite a frequent topic in the tag. and i think looking closely despite the excitement is a good excercise! so let's.

i've seen a sentiment that everyone has been made (more, in some cases) conventionally attractive, and i disagree with that a little bit. depends on your definition of convention, but while it's a look popular with many, i wouldn't say Hecate's abs for example are necessarily mainstream. another point i've seen was that Demeter looks younger. i kinda agree, but i don't think it's intentional, because it's quite subtle. she's mostly just missing the defined cheekbones.

the thing about this game's art seems to be that it's a little less sharp, the lines are thinner, shadows are smoother. i think it's an attempt to look more detailed and realistic compared to the first game. i'm not sure how i feel about it. i understand the want to improve or change up, but at the same time the lack of hard shadows and highlights, while it might come across as more realistic, also leaves the sprites a little bland. and i was going to bring up Poseidon as an example where the newer style fits in with visibly older sprites, but he still feels noticeably different in how he's shaded compared to say Moros.

i also agree that the poses are simpler and in most cases less dynamic; Mel is fine and the fact she can change during dialogue adds to it, Hecate looks good too. Nemesis is justifiable since she seems to be standing guard. i think they're simpler maybe because now everyone has a detailed environment backdrop as well, it's especially bold in the olympians' case, but i do hope characters revealed in the future have more dramatic or interesting poses. Selene gives me some hope.

Artemis is definitely unfinished. her sprite lacks any bolder linework or shadows, the coloring is very dull. it really sticks out like a sore thumb as of now. but her boon icons having those letters, likely placeholders too, make it more apparent that she's not finalized yet.

now, this might be controversial, but...i don't like Apollo's design that much. in his case, i definitely wish he had a cooler pose, for his bow/lyre to be a lot more prominent. the outfit is fine, i'm kinda on the edge about it. on one hand, all the colors and shapes work, on the other, maybe not together? but what makes it all bad for me is his actual appearance. i wish his hair was wilder, actually committed to it, and brighter. i wish he wore either more elaborate jewelry or more of detailed armor pieces. i wish he had heavy freckles, vitiligo or some other skin condition to reference the surface of the sun. i think in part this is definitely a case of being spoiled by fanart, but yeah. i'm not vibing with him as much as i hoped i would. i like this design because while the outfit isn't detailed, the freckles and pose make up for it. the hair, choppy like irregular sunrays, is cool too. this one i like too, it's less crazy but still has its own flair, distinct from the rest of the first game, and the lyre/bow design is beautiful. this one is a bit out there but it's pretty cool as well imo, with apparent callbacks to Artemis in hair texture, birthmarks/crests, and the shoulder pelt.

lastly though, Aphrodite. the good! referencing Ares's warpaint is sweet. i like the armor pieces. in general the pose is tasteful, and the long ass banners coming from her spear kinda add some needed drama to it. the spear and shield themselves have nice designs in line with Aphro's overall aesthetic. but the bad... i don't like her face all that much either when compared to her sprite from the first game. there, i liked that her lips aren't exaggerated in any way. compare that to Athena (her shade of lipstick is absolutely amazing tho). but it felt more, i dunno, like trying to convey some natural beauty? in 2, she got that barbie doll treatment. reminds me of witcher 3 female npcs' faces and that is not a good thing. people have said that she looks thinner - her arms definitely do. and maybe because of that they also seem a bit too long to me. she suffers from the lack of hard shadows and highlights a lot, putting both her sprites next to each other really shows the difference in approach. like, overall it's a pretty and perfectly fine sprite, but...there is a but. a part of that but is definitely our expectations and uncertainty about the new direction the sprite art seems to be going in. to give nuance to the other side, we're also still in a pre-early access stage. on the other hand, the other olympians we've seen don't look unfinished the way Artemis does and it's quite likely these sprites is what we'll go into full release with. there was no reason to change Aphrodite's face, and we're allowed to not like it. leaving well-meaning feedback can be effective! and i would encourage it. with emphasis on well-meaning.

i also think the icon for gold in Hades 2 should be just a single coin, because a little hoard of them looks too much like the moly flower icon from a distance.

f1 news and rumours to keep us in shape during the winter break:

apparently Fred didn't want Charles to risk p2 in the race and his own position in the standings with the brave move he did to grt the team p2 in constructors

points are calculated and with them also entrance fees which for red bull for next year equals a huge amount of 7.4 mil

Merc team found the missing wedding ring in Yas Marina, congrats!

everyone heard the story about how Newey almost went to Ferrari (because they offered huge paycheck, a flat in Monaco and complete autonomy over F1 and hypercar projects to him), but I never knew Aston Martin was the key to tying him to Red Bull. Apparently Marko took him to the side at the time, asked what Ferrari offered and then offered more money (which is not what sealed the deal) AND a full hypercar where he can design his car how he wants - and that's how Aston Martin Valkyrie was born out of his papers

Este and George were sick (again) in Abu Dhabi and some team members across all teams were too, which raised important question that has been floating around f1 spaces for a while - how huge of an impact has this extensive calendar (even more so in 2024) on the mental and physical health of both the drivers and the team crew

Pourchaire potentially going to Ferrari/AR WEC? Or maybe Superformula, because he didn't manage to grab the F1 seat, but hinted at a new contract

cooling equipment from 2024 should be used at races with extremely warm condition as a reaction to Qatar gp this year, more over there is rumoured [very simplified non technical explanation from me coming] solution of making a small hole from the bottom of the front spoiler to make space for more air and fia claims it will all have precise rules so nobody could end up using it to gain unfair advantage

Merc seem to be finally scraping up the concept that didn't work for 2 years now and said they are completely reworking basically every single part of the car

Val rased 150k with his BotASS

Stephanie Carlin who is CEO/team principal of Rodin Carlin and Lewis' extreme e team x44 will be joining mclaren as business operations director

Ben Sulayem expressed how he would love to get Masi back into FIA

Logan has been official announced to complete the 2024 grid which remains unchanged for the first time

Tina Hausmann to Aston Martin F1 academy seat (I can't wait for Ferrari to announce who they decided to sign)

Jessica Hawkins expands her role in Aston Martin to head of racing for f1 academy too

Pato Oward now has enough points to qualify for a super licence

wet weather wheel covers will be tested in in spring 2024

no work on 2026 cars before 2025 is allowed to make sure nobody gets an unfair advantage

CBS is planning a comedy with Guenther Steiner

the Apex movie with Brad Pitt had its release date pushed back to summer 2025 (they face financial issues apparently as well as staff issues after the strike in Hollywood)

Iwasa is headed to Superformula for the next season

Forbes calculated what each driver made in 2023 (idk what their sources are for this tho) and the order is: Oscar + Pierre 8 mil, George 9 mil

Alfa Romeo as a brand is focusing from f1 to WEC now after the contract with Sauber expired (so no Alfa Romeo to Haas as some rumours suggested)

speaking of Sauber, on 10th December they are announcing a new name (based on new title sponsor) in the UK

Honda racing Thanks day (or whatever they call it) happened a few days ago and Yuki looked very cute, also Ferrari had an event in Jeddah last week and Charles could finally do his wishful donuts

Autosport Awards took place and Horner, Verstappen, Piastri and Norris (and who knows who else of the people i don't like) won in some categories i am too tired to list here

Ferrari movie red carpet happened yesterday and some big names including susie and toto wolff were there (fun fact: toto and Christian were asked about charles' rumoured contract extension and they both said he is a great driver and tvereis no reason for ferrari to not lock him down before 2024 contracts expiring carnage happens)

speaking of, Gazzetta reported that charles apparently signed a 5 year contract extension with ferrari and Carlos is expected to extend as well except he is asking for 2 year contract (or at least 1+1) and the team wants to sign him for one year only

some people (cough Horner cough) were concerned about conflict of interest of Susie and Toto Wolff because they hate to see the girlboss winning - there is now official investigation that neither the Wolffs/Mercedes nor the F1 were informed before FIA let the info go into media

Madrid street circuit signed a contract for 10 years starting with 2026 and while Barcelona promoters are trying to keep their place on the calendar i doubt we would have 2 spanish gps with how packed the calendar already is

F1 also announced 6 sprint locations for 2024 and it will be a mess :))))

also remember how Doohan tried to get a place in Alpine wec before mick took it? He is now out of f2 for 2024 and turned down indycar offer too so rip to him

Ferrari drivers are on sim duty this week to give feedback on 676 project

Fred also admitted they scraped 2 more upgrades they had planned out for this season to instead focus those sources (financial and designer) for 2024

Alonso and Verstappen are reportedly planning to do Le Mans together and looking for a third one (worst threesome in the history of universe, no matter who they choose)

Prize money was also calculated and it's 140 mil for rbr, 131 mil for merc and 122 mil for ferrari (etc etc)

everyone is so silent about Andretti (who got approved by fia but didn't get an agreement to join the grid from other f1 teams yet) because apparently Hitech who also tried to get into f1 got turned down despite being much futher in development (concept in wind tunnel, merc pre contract for engine supplying etc) and they will be launching legal action against fia/fom acussing them of bias

And finally Liam Lawson is now a youtuber (as he waits for f1 opportunity because he has the 2025 seat confirmed and ricciardo has a clause in his contract to be 1st priority for rbr if they let go of Checo but also to hire lawson for his place if it happens)

[tenoart]

I'm rambling about this and no one will care but WHATEVER

Smp The Odyssey (more so epic the musical) au (Scott centric)

Basically it all starts with esmp s1 with Scott, and all canon events there happen all pretty much the same EXCEPT jimmy gets killed in front of Scott, and that after life doesn't last. All ESMP S1 leaders become the Greek pantheon

(Scott is Athena, Pix is Zeus, Joel is Ares, Lizzie is Aphrodite u get the picture)

The reincarnation of Aeor and all that doesn't stop , cut to ESMP 2 Scott hundreds of years later lives in the small empire of Rivendell (it's rulers died and hasn't been stable sense) and adapts to a life of crime to survive and gets his baby llama, Owen. before quickly realizing Owen was a shape shifter disguised as a llama to get free food.

He has Esmp s1 Scott who for simplicity sake I'm gonna call Tundra following him around throughout his childhood, and gives him the test in his teen years to steal the skull without dying, Tundra takes his eye and trains him from there on out. Pressuring him into becoming an king of his own nation and constantly eluding to Xornoth without outright stating it.

Scott however, hates this role. It's not him. He's a free spirit who can't be bothered to rule a kingdom. So he leaves with Owen and doesn't look back, only for months later to be confronted by Tundra (cue my goodbye from epic)

He takes back Scott's new magic eye, and tells Scott he basically ruined everything, and Scott doesn't understand, insulting Tundra for stringing him along and implies that Tundra only does this for his pride. Meanwhile tundra was trying to make sure Scott didn't repeat his mistakes

He shows Scott that all the other empires were attacked in his disappearance, that Jimmy, sausage, everyone had died to Xornoth while he was absent. Then, Tundra with the blade I can't remember the name of from ESMP 1 kills Scott, sending him to an after life with Owen, and stepping over him and sheriff Jimmy's corpses and through a portal

Hundreds

Years later there's a old abandoned museum of the ESMP 2 empires, that's built on top of a similar one of the ESMP 1 empires. Witch Smp Scott (who will be called Witch for simplicity) finds it and is exploring it with his lover pre deathification. Tundra now starts following him around. His test being the witch competition itself. He sees Joey summon Xornoth and rushes to introduce himself to witch. Witch knows of him and finds him super cool and looks up to him as a friend.

He follows in Tundra's orders. Making his own empire with his lover, having a kid (who I haven't. Made many decisions about yet I just know I want him to interact with Esmp 2 Scott's ghost at some point tho)

Witch trains under Tundra for awhile, before finding red vines creeping out of the ocean and Tundra deciding it's time.

Other scenes / stuff is I want A LOT of the other Scott's present.

Teleporter Scott as Hermes, Life serise Scott teamed up with Xornoth, Id love to include vampire Scott cause he's a favorite but I have 0 clue where. Cleo from witch Smp is Witch's BFF, (gets killed)

I LOVE THE IDEA OF GOD GAMES W Tundra Lizzie and Joel all ESMP 1 it BANGS.

Also imagine witch slowly as it goes own growing antlers from his little horns as he becomes more ruthless. During god games I like the idea of Jimmy being one of the easier ones Tundra has to convince, I like the idea of witch getting trained outside of time in a completely fixed Rivendell only when Tundra leaves him to be left in the real ruins of Rivendell.

IF YOU DRAW THIS @ ME IT MEANS THE WORLD TO ME FEEL FREE TO ASK QUESTIONS

[elekinetic]

real and true demigod assignments for the party + teens as decided upon by myself and @ratt-duffer

mike & nancy - athena (incredibly clever, a little arrogant at times.)

will & jonathan - apollo (jonathan is a photographer and loves music. will is personified light and also has the gift of prophecy, passed down from his mom who was mortal but also blessed. thats how she pulled apollo twice 😎)

el - jupiter (not zeus. she was at camp jupiter for the first 10 years of her life before she moved to chb)

max - hermes (zoomer, jack of all trades)

lucas (and erica) - aphrodite (lucas is the real heart of the party. consistently motivated by his love for his friends family & girlfriend. erica as a daughter of aphrodite works imo bc of aphrodite's scheming. erica always has a plan.)

dustin - hephaestus (loves inventing. does this require explanation?)

steve - dionysus (god of parties and also madness AND dolphins. idk its funny. steve eventually gets his shit together, but he still gets the "yoooooo lets partayyyy" comments. this time tho its not bc of the ''King Steve persona,'' its bc his dad is literally dionysus.)

robin - thantanos (god of death. talk abt social stigma....gayness + being a "death child" cmon. plus dionysus is a fertility god so its funny if stobin is birth+death besties)

eddie - apollo (shows up during the summer where el, jonathan, and will have to go to camp jupiter. mike still idolizes + has a mini-crush on him. a child of apollo who loves dnd? yeah he definitely doesn't have a hole in his heart shaped like that rn. when jonathan comes back, he and eddie are awkward abt who gets to be counselor. jon is younger but he's been counselor forever so.....)

billy - ares (this is where lucas gets his percy moment. beats his ass at age 12)

What is everyone's gear loadout in Oracle? <333

Sorry for the late reply, hon.

Four examples but each person has a team they fall under and depending on what the team specializes in is what they'll mostly use as well as comfort levels. There's the usual that everyone carries which is a uniform (unless they're going in more "casual" or in "civvies"), pads, vests, appropriate footwear, communication devices, gadgets depend on the assignment and so on.

Loke: he can use any weapon. Any. He's stupid levels of good with them, scary levels of fast and accurate. He's the counter-sniper and can snipe (bolt action being his preference) as well but that's a role that's more specialized and doesn't often come up. He's the second best sniper in all of Oracle but this role comes up only when Trevor isn't available. Most of the time tho, you'll see him with ARs. His favorites are the AKs, that AR plus him being a combat medic means he has a lot more equipment on him for treating both non-humans and humans. He'll also carry a wide range of blades. He prefers flashbangs to smoke grenades. Aside from all of that he can conjure a two-headed axe as well as a bow with unlimited arrows that he can enchant.

Jelani: Jelani's all about ARs and has a soft spot for carbines. His favorite AR is the HK G36. He carries a backup Smith and Wesson M&P 2.0. I think those come with a metal frame as well but he prefers polymer. Yeah, there's the issue with the recoil but he knows what he's doing and can control that. Not a fan of any type of grenade but if needed will use them. He can also conjure a weapon but unlike berserkers he can change the shape of it despite his age and most of the time it's a type of glaive or a saex. But because dampeners are a thing he'll have backup knives. On super rare occasions he'll use a sniper though he isn't a fan.

Trevor: he's the resident sniper, in fact, he taught Loke all he knows. The best sniper Oracle has and proud owner of the world's longest confirmed kill to date (every time that record is broken irl I up Trevor's record lmao). He's often seen with the Accuracy International AXSR (bolt action, always has to be bolt action). As a backup he has a Glock that he's customized completely. As a werewolf he has use of his claws and fangs for flankers. Likes to pack smoke grenades.

Angelus: he likes rushing down targets and does a lot of flanking and in situations where either Loke or Trevor are sniping he likes to keep close around them to keep them safe from flankers and rushers. Given that he likes to move around a lot he prefers a lighter loadout. Sub-machine guns and PDWs for him. MP4, MP5SD, MP7, and so on. His very favorites though are the FN P90 and the Kriss Vector CRB. He carries arcane weapons such as an infamous blade he uses to buff his arcane abilities and his own offensive arcane abilities as well. Just like Trevor he's a werewolf and can rely on claws and fangs.

PJO Live Reaction Episode 8 Finale Time

Minor spoilers for the books/possible upcoming events

Wait hold a rephrasing of the opening lines by Luke?!?!

Be still my beating heart

Luke and Percy practice scene! Oh the foreshadowing. Yeah Luke. When will Percy ever need to learn how to fight another swordsman? Ok. The rules speech is good.

Percy you impertinent cute little badass.

Fight scene fight scene! Not much to say on fight scenes tbh

C'mon Percy! Control that water! Let's go Son of Poseidon!

First blood! Percy won!

I think that was faster than in the books, but eh

Oh. Ares didn't curse him? But that comes back to bite Percy later doesn't it? Kinda missing out on the curse...

Well they got the helm at least.

Oh? Sudden cute little bungalow? Oh wait. It looks like the Montauk cabin, doesn't it?

Hi Alecto

Poor Annabeth is so out of the loop

Percy does have some manners

I kind of like Alecto tbh

So....how do they get the money for the flight if there's no crowd to feed a sob story to and raise money?

"Zeus will never let you leave alive." "I'm done running from monsters." OOOH Get rekt Zeus. Honestly, the Olympians should be groveling to Percy to not join Kronos

Oh, Annabeth's necklace does have the college ring on it. I think i missed that in a previous episode

Grover. "This could have been an e-mail." Underwood Everybody

Oh so we just magically get to New York? What? How? From California?

Percy is so fucking done with this shit

#letpercysayfuck2k24

Olympus is beautiful tho. I love the gold accented Corinthian columns

Luke comparing demigods to spiders? *Chef's kiss*

*Manifesting bi!Percy and a crush on Luke* I'm Percabeth all the way, but them both having complex feelings for Luke is too good

*One thousand steps later*

Hello Zeus

Oh sweet Percy. Zeus does not want to hear that. He doesn't believe you. He doesn't want to. Wait. He's admitting Kronos even has any power? But...he's continuing this war. Of course he is.

Percy. Zeus doesn't listen to reason....

Oh boy... Percy spitten facts Zeus isn't going to like

Thank you Poseidon! Oh this is good.

Is...is Zeus actually gonna do shit about Kronos? Or just pretend to make himself look good?

Ooh, Father Son meeting time!

Its ok Percy, you'll get better at ancient Greek. And Latin, if I remember right, he's surprisingly good at it for a Greek.

"Do you ever dream about mom?" Just stab me

And back to CHB!

Have I mentioned I like how the have Thalia's tree in the vague shape of a human? Nice touch

Baby Percabeth Hug!

Oh guys. Clarisse didn't steal the bolt

Luke is taking full advantage of this

Oh I don't like this splitting of the party...

Oh no Oh no Oh no

Percy. That's not the oracle line you should be remembering right now

There you go. Worry about the Betrayal line

Oh wait he figured it out

Lame

I mean, the shoes were kind of a giveaway

But still

Oh good. I always wondered why Luke didn't try harder to recruit Percy

Oh ok. Hi Backbiter?

Still not sure how he does that. The sword just, opens doors?

I like how Luke's scar looks more like a tear track than anything else tbh (yes yes, there still a whole discourse about scarred villains. i don't wanna touch that right now. Luke looks good ok?)

Annabeth! Oh that's a fun change

Not sure if it's a good one yet. But interesting

I do like how they changed Luke's betrayal to just after the quest, it feels more like how the prophecies usually play out, that is, all happening within a short time frame rather than months (besides the great prophecies of course)

Y'know, I wonder if we'll get an adaption to Luke's Diary/Demigod files story with Luke, Thalia, and Hal in later seasons? I hope so

I can't wait to see the reactions of all those fans who never read the books and were gushing about Luke and being so sure he was NOT the traitor (Not in a mean way, just in a let chaos reign way)

Chiron is worried about Percy being kidnapped/defecting? Fair

Percy. Yes. You are Very stubborn.

Ah! The proud comment from Chiron!

Dionysus is killing me here

Annabeth looks cute with that hair. Oh her commentary about Disney World is adorable!

Grover got his searcher's license!!!

Oh ok, so Grover is planning to go to sea?

Ok the pact to meet back is cute and all. But uh. Well. I'm not so sure about Grover...

Sally's back! Reunion hugs!

Ok, are we gonna get Gabe's death?

OH wait hold up what

Oh no

What

Hi Kronos? Why do you look like the grim reaper? I thought you were Thanatos for a second...

Oh ok Sally is actually back

Oh, dream journal for Kronos. Kind of smart actually

Percy you adorable little shit

So....no turning Gabe to stone?

Is he gonna be in future seasons?

Divorced?

I want Paul....

I mean, the ending is sweet and all, Percy and Sally are adorable. But...Gabe? Hello? Not gonna tie up that plot?

Oh. Ok. End credits Gabe scene

Oh bitch got the locks changed on him

Good for Sally

Oh! Hello Hermes Express!

Opening someone else's male in a crime gabe

Get fucked

Do I like that it was an accident instead of intentional? I'm...not sure actually

Overall thoughts:

I really liked the finale! Some of the changes made sense, some did not. It feels like a lot happened, pacing was a bit weird. The father son reunion could have gone better, but could have been worse to. Might have been better as two eps but eh. Sally and Annabeth were great, Percy was adorable, I was so scared for him when Zeus nearly killed him. He was really going off tho, good for him I really liked Luke this ep. It was a lot of good set up and foreshadowing. I like that Chiron caught on that well Luke isn't entirely wrong and Percy would be very dangerous if he worked with Kronos.

I really want a season 2. I loved Sea of Monsters, and I'm exited for Tyson! He's one of the best characters. I also really like Clarisse so that will be good. Not to mention Thalia's revival!

I've seen a few comments about how the kids are just figuring everything out, and I kind of agree. I would like to see them bamboozled a bit more like with Clarisse as the thief. I also would have preferred if their disabilities were a bigger part of the story/plot/characterization. It was a big part of the books, and it was why they were written in the first place, so I wish it was touched on more

Overall, there were some good part and some not so good parts. I'm still hoping for a season 2. Hopefully they can tighten up the pacing a bit, and work on some more tension in the plot.

I am so hoping we get all 5 seasons, and maybe more but I doubt it. I really want season 3 and the di Angelo siblings.

Also. Where is my Magnus Chase series????

[puhpandas]

Do you think Proto Freddy and our Freddy are two different Freddys? Idk, considering getting mimicked basically just gives you your opposite personality and makes you evil, the way Freddy operated in GGY in comparison to ruin just seemed...too different. Ruined! Freddy was a being of pure blind and unadulterated violence while GGY! Freddy just...stood there staring until he leapt into action. In the base game sinkhole ending, it was kinda the same thing. He just stood there for a few seconds then lunged at Gregory. Not to mention the physical differences between the two and the fact that Ruined! Freddy has the word "PROTOTYPE" etched to his foot. That was definitely put there for a reason. I just get the feeling that Proto didn't have a set personality, therefore there was nothing there to battle the virus taking over...thus being weirdly vicious unlike our Freddy. It also makes sense that the V.A.N.N.I. network didn't pick up on him because he wasn't a registered entity unlike game Freddy. Adding onto this, Moon probably had the network programmed into him for security purposes just like Roxy's new eyes were and they BOTH saw our Freddy. It just feels weird that not ONE of the animatronics acknowledged Freddy's existence in Ruin, only Cassie. Brain is braining. (sorry, this was long. 😭😭😭)

I like ur theory about GGY ver of Freddy and how the virus network works!! but I actually also have a theory about this!!

the VANNI mask I think reveals a lot about proto Freddy and answers some questions. every other animatronic in ruin still exists and has remnants of their past selves/how they see themselves in the AR world. roxy has her face and chica can still speak.

which makes proto Freddy pointedly disappearing when you put on the mask interesting. my theory (I made around when ruin came out. the original post is somewhere out there) is that animatronics with sentience and AI are shown in the AR world, but animatronics without AI arent.

roxy and chica are still there because they themselves are present. they still have an active ai and personality and are alive in a way. but proto freddy isnt.

which makes me come to the conclusion that proto Freddy doesn't HAVE an AI. which in turn would mean that his AI was taken with Freddys head post princess quest, and now all that's left is the husk of a body that disappears in the AR world because it has no sentience attached to it

so yeah I do think proto Freddy is the same as our freddy. if you rewatch the ruin trailer, you can see in the Freddy scene that he has no prototype on his foot there, but does in the game. I think they added this last second because they made it too clear that freddy is with Gregory and vanessa post princes quest and they needed something to cause discussion and confusion so they were like. yeah prototype on the foot sure.

since proto Freddy can get up and move around it isnt a stretch that maybe he got up and tried to fix himself a bit and found a proto Freddy shell. I dont think the colors + shape of proto Freddy being different matters because the still intact parts of the other glamrocks look different as well and also the colors could be made specifically to look better in ruins dark lighting. so theres no telling

it would explain the differences between GGY freddy and proto Freddy tho. if proto Freddy is our Freddy but with no ai and a violent husk then it would behave different than just our Freddy with a virus!

but that's what I think :)

Sorry about that 😅 I tend to be really judgemental about myself and negative 😞 I try to improve it but it's hard 😅 especially when it's about something I love 😔

But putting this aside, you definitely did justice to the idea and I would live to read more about this universe, or even the other two ideas. The snippet for the double Max and Lewis are so good. Speaking of it, maybe go with them switching places with our Lewis and Max. And being so confused as to why Lewis is ar Mercedes now and why Max is at Red Bull. And why aren't they a couple.

As for Christian's and Toto reaction about them being friends with benefits, Christian would probably go full mother hen about it 😅. It's his honorary pup we're talking about and Lewis omega or not is older and using Max. Toto would either be extremely suspicious of Max's intentions. Or would be like, I don't care as long as you don't Do anything stupid like mate and lose focus on the title race.

The surprise Rut, Max would be terrified of calling Lewis for help as he doesn't know if he is allowed to, and he is afraid of losing himself. It will take a long time and reassuring from Lewis side for Max to give in.

happy you didn't take it too harshly, my friend! i know what it's like to be insecure of your own writing but there's no other way to grow in it than to keep doing it! and your love for writing should be your biggest motivation. we are, after all, our own harshest critics. and sometimes ya gotta shut up your own mind to let your creativity shine.

ohh yes the double universe thing!! if i have any more ideas on how to shape it, i might end up writing it! it's definitely an idea sooo good that it's been bugging me in a good way. would love to see how that will turn out eventually !! <3

and yess christian's reaction !! i think he'd be toooottally 'max are u in ur right mind??????' but eventually very caring. toto, would indeed be sooo sus like my guy what are you trying to get out of this? but, like, it's especially weird rn bc it's not like they're big rivals. max is cruising his way to another wdc and the merc is suffering fighting crying all the way through so, why now? and yes once he'll be slightly less suspicious, he may have space in his mind to think, huh, maybe this is ok. the mating thing tho, whooooo inch restiiing to think about!!

for the surprise rut: max would def hesitate to call lewis. he's so unconditional and easy when it comes to helping lewis, but when he has to ask for it himself? god no, he doesn't want to be seen as someone who takes advantage. they aren't even mated! especially since lewis has told max bits and bits about what happened to him before, about nico, about how he was mistreated. and max makes it his personal goal to be better. to not give lewis another reason to hate alphas. so, he hides his rut. doesn't take suppressants bc he hates that, but he shoves it away, pretends to be ok.

but it's easy to spot for lewis - max is much more and easier agitated, more jealous when someone else is near lewis (which also adds a sense of risk for them to be found: "Max, behave, they're gonna realise what's been going on if you keep that up." / "Behave? when he's touching you like that and making you giggle? i can't just stand by and watch other people flirting with you." / "we aren't even mated, though! so it's not like others can tell. and hey, i'm coming home to you, shouldn't that be enough?" / "it is, i just - i don't know why i did what i did. i can't help myself, okay? don't want anyone to get ideas") and his smell is, well, much more present than ever before. so lewis brings it up, subtly and subtly again. max denies it time after time again. and then lewis is like. you sit down. sit yo ass down. listen to me. you are in rut, it is easy for me to see. why are you hiding? and max is like nooooo i'mn not okay okay maybe i am. [cue emotional 'don wanna take advantage of uuu' followed by lewis realising, hey, he's for real. he's not the same as nico.] and then lewis reassures max and they have hot knotting mating sex about it all.

Lore Olympus Fast-Pass thoughts (208)

Sorry for the delay, I had a friend over.

Oh, that was easy. Good! For now, at least. Let's see how far this character development goes.

So if my theory is true, then he doesn't know about it. Still not refuted, though. Lots of things still pointing towards it.

It's nice they do love eachother, though.

I'm gonna assume Hestia also doesn't know about my theory. I don't think she'll oppose Hades and Persephone now, but...

Aw, earblush <3

Aaaaaawwww- wait, is that a thing that actually happens? Do gods turn into stardust if mortals stop believing in them in this setting? Is that why Zeus will try to do something when-

Yup, sounds good. Persephone has lived a life where she's had to adapt and shape and perfect herself to deal against the currents of other people's expectations being imposed onto her without any real warning. Now she has something SHE wants secured, and a partner who loves and respects her, so she wants to savor that, instead of just swallowing it.

Hades' lips, tho.

I love that Hades is still conscientious about boundaries and not assuming things about their relationship, even immediately after they just finally cemented it. But yeah, you can sleep together now, bro, you've earned it and also you just did that before the makeover.

Hera has good taste and also it shows that she chose it.

Yeah, about that.

Poor Demeter, even your daughter couldn't stop for a second to spare you a thought.

We know the broad strokes of how this situation will develop, but I was thinking earlier if she'll go put pressure on Hestia and that could make her falter. We are back to a very liminal part of the story, where we know the direct next step but it'll probably get somewhat extended for a while. It could be that her and Hestia will try to pressure her into the "no sex and relationships allowed" clause and THAT's when they get to know about the rape, but it's a low probability. I swear it's not that I'm obsessed with that reveal, I'm just considering all options of how the situation may unfold for all the characters.

Something that I do think will happen soon, however, is Adonis. For those not in the know, Adonis was found by Aphrodite as a baby but she gave him to Persephone to raise, so it fits this part of the story where she will be living alone and we'll get to see some more domestic bliss with Hades, this time with the family he wants, even if it's not biological. Adonis then chooses to stay with Aphrodite over Persephone and I think this will also tie into Psyche and Eros' story. As in, I think that whole cursed thingy that Perse gives to Psyche when she's on errands for Aphrodite might be a revenge prank gone wrong, but who's to say. Keep in mind however, that according to myth Adonis is killed by either Ares or Apollo or both, so that'll be juicy. I should probably make a masterpost of my predictions, actually.

anyways the lords are clearly some (occasionally badly chosen) rep for the creatures shown in V/an H/elsing 2004, M/other M/iranda shares near identical traits and powers to Q/ueen R/avenna in S/now W/hite and the H/untsman / H/untsman W/inters W/ar.... so who thinks the Res team just started watching a lot of modern day cult classics and went ‘yeah, we like that.’ 

edit: the only thing i have for donna is the o/ther m/other from c/oraline tbh, but m/iranda’s shape shifting thing also puts her in line with that. moreau doesn’t need words tho he’s both frankenstein, the monster, and a lovecraftian horror thing, bc for some reason they sliced v/an h/elsing franky in half and put half in heisy and half in moreau. donna’s softer side fits some of the o/ther m’other’s beginning personality, but the fact angie is vicious and technically donna’s under the impression she’s supposed to kill you, also fits into o/ther m/other.
