#they put him in a balloon

[imperfectcourt]

I want comfortable summer college jock Neil wearing a tank top, scars on full display, enjoying the sun and being stupid with his best friend Matt with no cares of the (surprisingly few) stares. He's a junior, he's old news on campus, nobody gives a shit about his drama anymore, he's captain of the exy team and he's having a waterballoon fight with Matt on the quad nearest Fox Tower and having the type of fun that passersby badly want to join in on but don't have the confidence to

even if i didnt love botw as much as i do, totk drives me nuts bc, similarly to pokemon, this series is so SO SO full of potential, they have so many games they can pull from, theres so many themes, characters and worldbuilding thats just left to rot, you dont need to connect anything with a chain to old titles, you dont need to bring back any things that already had their ending, but PLEASE harness at least a fraction of all this!!!! and they just refuse to do it beyond shallow references

totk jsut drives it all home to me, bc this isnt just the next game in the franchise, but a DIRECT SEQUEL no 10 years apart from botw, yet they cant even, they REFUSE to even keep the continuity with its OWN lore it established in botw together, and that, i think, is what truly makes me so insane (derogatory) about totk

it PROVES they do not care, they dont care to build on anything of the lore of old titles beyond references in form of amiibos or whatever, they dont even care to make a sequel to their most successful game in the franchise coherent with its own lore

botw established a captivating detailed world full of potential, while lacking in active storytelling, it had environmental storytelling, characters and ideas that were the perfect ground to build on-

and then they do away with it bc idk .. they want you to build mechs and make videos of it that go viral and thats all they care about or something

shiekah tech? forget that existed character being the character you know? act as if you are seeing them for the first time just like they are lame story? dont think about that just be distracted by the epic presentation of it lore the previous title established? forget that, all that matters is what is here and now beloved character from old games beign brought back? hes a new guy and has no background and no lore and just sits waiting for you at the end to have a flashy fight with references from old titles and their lore? just here for nostalgie bait, dont you remember? you LOVE this series, now give me 70 bucks for a glorified DLC that ruins what you loved about the series and makes you realize that nothign matters and nothing is interesting anymore

you are supposed to take it all at face value, to not think about anything, to see a character say something and just go with it, and forget it the second its over, be distracted by good music and pretty visuals, but dont think about, dont think about anything but what is directly said to you like you have no critical thinking skills, forget there was a game before this one, only the one you play matters, empty your skull and dont let yourself feel anything but what the game tells you to feel

if they dont even care to make the sequel to their most successful game actually build on the previous title, dont even care to keep their continuity of two games supposedly directly happening one after the other in tact- maybe they never cared, and all the meaning we thought we saw them build into their games was all accidental and meaningless

and that is absolutely soul crushing for fans like me to discover

its a game. its not a story, its not a world, its not themes, its not characters, its not lore. its a product made to make you pay money, not to make you think about anything.

Withered Foxy: Balloon Boy, I choose you!

[heybiji]

supe npc (Then and Now) for a MASKS: A New Generation game I'm gonna be running for some friends. TrueStrike, mentor to the protégé character. left was him before he disappeared from the public eye after the intense ridicule brought on from accidentally killing destroying a city institution: the giant, beloved balloon mascot of the city's favorite donut shop (Dino Donut, the D-Rex, of Dino Donut), traumatizing a generation of children who loved it and all the adults who grew up with it. there were a lot of kids screaming, crying, The Day Dino Donut Died. The Dino Donut balloon has since been replaced with a statue of a hipper version of the D-Rex that wears a backwards baseball cap and everyone hates it.

TrueStrike currently lives inside a storage unit, monitoring the city with all his high tech computers as he sinks deeper into paranoia and self-pity, missing his ex-wife and kid, and tries not to spend too much time refreshing the FUCK TRUESTRIKE geocities page. he mostly uses his protégé to get him pizza.

there's something interesting to be said about how nickel's female friends have to constantly school him on how horrible he is but animationepic won't say it

Nobody ever talks about how sassy Smokescreen is like in predacons rising while they are talking to Predaking somebody way stronger and bigger than Megatron and while Bumblebee is trying to be respectful by calling Predaking "your highness" Smokescreen follows bumblebees lead but calls Predaking "your highness" in the most sassiest and taunting way 😭

Your son has a death wish this boy has no fear he did similar things like that to Megatron he told this man to "think fast" and snatched the key from his hand and when Megatron ask for his name he responded with "why? Who wants to know?"

Smh Smokescreen has no sense of danger 😭

MY SON. I love to be known as his mother.

But yeah. No self-preservation, no social understand. I love him so much!

And yesssss!!! He’s so sassy!!!! One of my favorite moments is from the movies when he goes up to Bee and tells him he might have been a Prime and wraps up that conversation with “yeah, I said.” Like chill out my dude!! I quote it all the time. He didn’t have to be that way but the movie really is Smokescreen’s series of reckless one liners.

I need more sassy Smokescreen content. More “dumbass who thinks he is hot shit but has foot in mouth syndrome to the max”. I also have the need for that cocky dumbass to get checked by literally anyone.

well. okay. maybe im not evil anymore it actually is really REALLY goddamn funny that the ATSV trailer framing Worked and there are like maybe Two People talking to each other abt The Spot for every seventeen individuals crying sobbing afraid of miguel. have to admit it Was very clever to use two c-listers so the more visually-intimidating one could be a scary red herring 4 the many audience members who know v little/nothing abt what either of them are like in the comics

[godisasimp]

Just came out of the theater.

Words cannot describe how much i love that movie.

Strongly held political beliefs: Maglor is not the twins’ dad but rather their Maglor (indescribable and inimitable role they themselves cannot fully sound out the shape of).

Maedhros, on the other hand, is a classic Spooky War-Story Great-Uncle (Intrafamilial Murder Edition)

Balloon Art Day 9

37. Toucan - Arthur

This one was pretty tough! A couple of the bubbles comprising his head popped while I was working on him, but I'm proud to say that I was able to get in there and replace them. The final product has one small issue, which is that a pinch twist at the top of his left wing deflated a bit. By the time this happened and I noticed it, I would have had to dismantle both wings to fix it, so I didn't! Luckily, it's only visible from one side, so I just didn't take any pictures of that side. In spite of that one detail, I'm very pleased with how this came out! The base that the yellow ring is supported by was improvised on the spot. The tutorial I was following constructed a base with small round balloons, but I don't have any of those. I could probably refine the base if I iterated the process, but I'm satisfied with what I came up with in the end. It does a fine job of keeping the sculpture upright, after all. In general, I'm extremely proud to have completed this build!

38. Pteranodon - Terry

I originally planned to be done after finishing that toucan, but a friend made a comment about how I should have named him Terry, and that inspired me to make something else to carry that name. For a quick and dirty build, done on a whim because of an offhanded comment, I'm really happy with this! I chose to use three different colors (four, if you count the white balloon used for the eyes) mostly because I didn't want to run out of one particular color too quickly. I figure that since it's unclear exactly what dinosaurs looked like, it's fine for me to take some creative liberties in depicting them. That said, for a decision as thoughtless as that one, the resulting aesthetic is nicer than I had expected. I've made a dinosaur that looks like a sunset! I hope that all of the impulsive decisions I will inevitably make end up being this visually appealing.

delightful part of the sex update tonight was absolving narinder of sin & getting PUSHED OUT OF THE FUCKING MAP

[balloonboyismyson]

Please inform me, your opinions on the lil guy, the gremlin, Balloon Boy.

okayokayokay SO. I love him SO much. He is my bouncing baby boy. FNaF 2 is already my favourite game of the series, and he adds to that bc he is quite the unique character in the series.

People dislike him bc he takes their batteries, however, I COUNTER that, by saying that he does not kill you. He COULD kill you, if he wanted to, but he does NOT. He just likes batteries. Maybe Withered Foxy is nice to him so he helps him out, no idea! All I know is he gives you some extra time before Foxy gets you.

ALSO. we cannot forget about his laughs. He is just so happy! His laughing is not the usual creepy laughter like in FNaF 1, no, he just sounds so genuinely excited!! He sounds like a little kid creeping up behind you laughing trying to spook you, but they are unaware you can hear them so you hold back laughter as to not let the kid know you know they are there!!!!

Another thing is that the FNaF 3 Ballon Boy jumpscare was the first time I had ever FREAKED the FUCK out at a jumpscare. PERIOD. I had never had a scare quite like that. I JUMPED. I like THREW my laptop OFF of me. Since he never jumpscares you in 2, I did NOT expect him to do it in 3, so it scared the FUCK out of me, and that was the coolest experience I ever had playing a FNaF game!

Now listen, I have like negative paternal instincts, but BALLOON BOY? I want to RAISE him. I want to take care of him and make sure he has a good life. I want to make him yummy meals he will think back fondly over and I want to take him to and from school. I want to stay up late at night helping him make a diorama for school he decided not to tell me about until 10PM on Sunday the night before it was due. I want to tell him how proud I am of him for trying his hardest and being a wonderful young man. I will spend thousands of dollars a year on cool new flashlights for him and handmade batter-themed things to make him happy.
