Hiatus Announcement

[ Hello, everyone! I hope your summer has been fun and restful so far.

I've mentioned off and on this past year about getting married/planning a wedding, and that is finally happening in the next several weeks. My future husband and I are going to move in together, get married, go on our honeymoon, etc., and I want to make sure that I am putting in the time to all of that without worrying about tumblr.

So, starting at least by June 5, I will be on an extended hiatus.

I honestly have no idea when I'll return, but it would honestly, in my mind, not be for at least several months, if not permanently. If this is goodbye, and it's a hobby I end up not picking up again, I've thoroughly enjoyed writing, plotting, and talking with all of you. I've made some amazing friends here and I love you all! ]

Betelgeuse, Asteroid, Shooting Star!

space themed muse questions

Betelgeuse: What’s something you can never forget about? 

"I mentioned the happy feelings when we went to go fight Giygas, though the other side of this was that I can't forget the feeling before and during that battle with it, either. Every time I think about that operation we had to endure in order to go into the Phase Distorter, the Cave of the Past... even looking at the Phase Distorter... it gives me this icy feeling down in my stomach and I get dizzy and can't think straight.

That tension is something that creeps up sometimes, especially after a nightmare, so unfortunately I can't forget that fear quite yet."

Asteroid: What does your dream life look like? 

"Well... I'd like to help people somehow. I know I've been told I'd make an excellent engineer, but I think I'd like a career that I know really impacts others... So I would be doing that.

I'd also like to always be close with Ness, Paula, and Poo. And Tony, of course. And besides them... I'd like to have a family, I think. Even if I don't think I'd be the best parent, I know I wouldn't want to live alone. Oh, and I'd like a lot of pets."

Shooting Star: If you could bring back one thing, what would it be? 

"I'm not certain... in terms of things, maybe the submarine I got to pilot? Though I don't know where I'd keep it. Perhaps... some more detailed records of when and where I was born, and who my family members are. I have no idea who my mother is, either... that information I really would like to know."

You might have known that EarthBound Beginnings' end credits theme, Eight Melodies, has official lyrics, but did you know that EarthBound's, Smiles and Tears (attached above), has lyrics too? Written in Ness's POV, I think theses lyrics are really sweet (and also reveals that A: he owns a guitar! And B: his shoes are canonically raggedy!). Give them a read under the cut and follow along! Credit to WikiBound for this one; it's the cleanest translation we got!

Grown-ups have done so much more stuff than me There's many things that I still want to see Now I take my backpack to the world and fill it with memories

My favorite baseball cap rests on my head My worn out sneakers, faded white and red My own guitar pick, shiny and clear Safe in my pocket, right here

Though sometimes I got sad and almost cried You were right there with me, by my side I knew we were friends to the core But maybe it was something more

Together, we walked that road for so long We laughed, we played, we got hurt, we grew strong When taking short-cuts, and getting lost I learned what I’d known all along

That even if you can’t put faith in those Who you meet, and lose, and love, and hug Overall, you just can't give up Believing in your friends And just by being there, you've woken me Just by being who you’d always be Now I see, you helped me to know The stronger, happier me Because Like a gentle breeze, through the grass and the pine trees You always wore a smile

Now we, who shared our Smiles and Tears... ...I miss you... We two are now far apart...

Betelgeuse: What’s something you can never forget about? 

space themed muse questions

"I don't think I can ever forget the feeling after defeating Giygas. The way we all sort of fell into unconsciousness, so easily succumbed to this feeling of nothing, I really thought it was the end. I wasn't as scared as I thought I would be. Maybe it was because I and my friends somehow knew that Giygas was gone right after that final attack from nowhere.

But after that blackness, I still clearly remember feeling the sun on my face - my real face, not the robotic one - and opening my eyes, and I was lying on the ground in Saturn Valley. That feeling of... I have to say it was euphoria, it got all of us. Ness and Paula and Poo and I all hugged so tightly, and we all cried...

It's the happiest I think I've ever been."

beinfriends​:

In the boy’s musings about what plants may remind him of his friend, Jeff threw out a few different suggestions: ferns, clovers, more warm weather-type plants.  Jeff was in luck, then, as Tazmily was warm nearly all year-round.  Abbey excitedly bounced on her heels, already preparing to let Jeff know the good news.  They didn’t have clover, but they had ferns and lilacs, plus the poinsettias since Jeff seemed open to having them.  They nodded and hummed at his associating poinsettias with winter and Christmas.

“Then that’s perfect!” Abbey interjected, still overjoyed.

However, the conversation continued on to an unexpected place.  When Jeff gets to the subject of Dr. Andonuts’s apartment, he admitted that he was not living with his father at all.  Abbot and Abbey tilted their heads almost in perfect sync, curious.  Why wouldn’t he live with his father?  Abbot had seen the inside of the apartment, and while it was very junky, he didn’t think it was too bad to live in, certainly.  He couldn’t imagine living in a time machine.  Abbot had caught glimpses of the machine Dr. Andonuts was working on, and if Jeff’s was anything like that, then it was awfully cramped.

That did concern the two of them.  What kind of father was Dr. Andonuts if he allowed his son to sleep out in the time machine instead of in a proper home?  Something wasn’t right, but both knew it wasn’t their right to pry.  But Abbot didn’t feel right just leaving it unaddressed entirely.  He wouldn’t press for information.  Abbot had hated it whenever people tried to pry into his own home life as a child– and while he did his best not to project, he still felt a pang of sympathy when thinking about the whole thing.

Abbot and Abbey exchanged worried glances, but they tried not to look so nervous.  Abbey nervously wrung her hands nonetheless, always wearing her heart on her sleeve, even when she’d rather not.  But Abbot kept himself together a bit more.  “Well, that’s a shame.  Sorry ta hear that,” Abbot murmured, then smoothed it over by continuing, “but hey, we do got some ferns ‘n’ lilacs fer ya!  You cin also look at some’a our other stuff, you might find some other plants ya like.  We got gerberas, sunflowers, saplin’s, some marigolds, maybe some other stuff… if we knew how long you was stayin’, we could see about plantin’ some seeds if ya have any requests.  I collect seeds, so we got lots ta offer.”

Abbey fidgeted with her hands, shifting uneasily on her feet, as she appeared to be in thought.  “I’m tryin’ ta think if there ain’t a place you cin stay.  I don’ think it’s healthy ta stay in a small space like that… oh, I hate ta assume, but I seen Dr. A’s machine, and it’s awful cramped, ain’t it?”

“Bad fer the back,” Abbot suggested lightheartedly.

“Yes, oh, goodness!  Huh…”  Abbey paused to think a little more.  “Well, the Yado ain’t a hotel no more, an’ I don’ think they’ve had a vacant apartment in a dawg’s age. Lessee, ‘cause Bud an’ Lou live there, Lisa an’ her kids, Donna part a’ the time, DCMC ‘n’ Duster, plus Venus an’ Elmore…”  She counted out the groups on her fingers.  “Yep, thass everybody.  Plus Jackie’s family an’ Sebastian…”

“Ain’t no way they got room,” Abbot concluded.

The two looked at each other again.  If push came to shove, they wouldn’t mind extending an invitation to Jeff to stay with them for a while, if he was comfortable with that.  They just didn’t like the idea of him being stuck in that machine one bit.  There had to be a place for him.  Suddenly, Abbey’s lit up with understanding, and she bumped Abbot with the back of her hand.

“Oh!  Oh, oh!  What about the Children’s House?” she suggested.  “Ain’t nobody live there but Nana now!  Me an’ Abbot an’ a bunch’a other kids used ta live there, so it’s got plenny a’ room!”

Abbot lightly smacked his forehead.  It was such an obvious solution now that he thought about it.  The Children’s House had been the home of all of the orphaned kids of Tazmily.  All those kids had grown up now, save for Nana.  Abbot and Abbey had grown up there, as had Paul and Linda, Isaac, Bateau, Tessie, Lisa… quite a few of them, now that he thought about it.  It was always meant to house multiple people, and while half of the Children’s House had been repurposed for more apartments, there was still room left for Jeff.  Nana wouldn’t mind sharing, would she?

“Well, ain’t that perfect!” Abbot agreed.  “You really oughta stay in a real place, ya know?  I think that’s pro’ly better fer ya… where is that machine anyway?  If it’s too far out, ya might get attacked by chimeras, and ain’t nobody want that.”  Abbot paused and scratched his neck.  Are they being too pushy?  Too… parental, maybe?  “Well-l-l, we don’t wanna assume too much of ya.  Thass yer choice, but… there’s place for ya if ya need it.  Children’s House is all for kids who got no place ta live.  I bet Nana wouldn’t mind the company one bit.”  He smiled reassuringly at Jeff.

Reading other people’s emotions isn’t anything that Jeff would claim to be good at, quite the opposite. However, from the way the woman is wringing her hands together, he can tell that at least she is worried about his situation, if not both of them, from the way the man apologizes to him. 

To Jeff’s relief, the conversation about Dr. Andonuts isn’t continued any further, and instead the both of them seem determined to find him another place to live. Aside from the twins, Jeff really hasn’t talked to anyone in Tazmily, under the assumption (more like the hope) that this would be over quickly and he could get himself and his father back home. His friends and people at Snow Wood were enough aware of Jeff and Dr. Andonuts’ relationship to mostly avoid talking about it unless it was important, but here, of course everyone would think that Jeff would stay with his father, that they’d be overjoyed to see each other, and other conventional family behaviors.

But perhaps Abbot and Abbey are being polite since they know the words “Dr. Andonuts” and “conventional” don’t belong together.

 The offer to stay somewhere else is tempting. Jeff has to admit, he’s not opposed to a place with a real bed - Abbot was right, sleeping on the floor of the Phase Distorter really did not do any favors for his already sore back - but he also doesn’t want to inconvenience anyone.

It seemed like the town of Tazmily was holding more people currently than they were used to, all of a sudden, but for what reason Jeff hadn’t felt brazen enough to ask. He assumed it was because there might have been other people, like Dr. Andonuts, that were trapped outside of their true place in time. There is one supposedly open building that he might be able to stay in, though... the “Children’s House.” His mind can’t help but conjure up images of an orphanage, or maybe a boarding house like Snow Wood’s.

“Oh, the time machine’s in... the forest back there.” He gestures north of Tazmily. Lucas or Claus might have told him what it was called, but the name of it escapes him. “I haven’t run into a Chimera yet, but... if they really wouldn’t mind another person staying there, I’d like a bed.” He chuckles awkwardly. 

“You don’t have to right now, or just point me in the direction, but where is it? I’ll admit I haven’t really spent much time here in town... and I ought to ask Nana if she minds having a roommate before I make any steps to move.” Even if he only really has a satchel to move anyway.

These two are the people Jeff has spent the most time with, and they’ve only had one conversation together. They did have a knack for making Jeff feel more at ease; they appear rather young but have the same kind of... for lack of a better word, parental sense about them. The same way Tony’s parents and Ness’ mother would fuss over him. It gave Jeff a small sense of serenity after being homesick for the past several weeks.
