Hi!!

I was a bit confused on you info about Lumians, and wanted to ask you if you have any more info on them! :D

I’m totally cool with infodumping btw!

Thanks in advance!! :>

Boy oh boy spopera lore time!

First of all credit for Lumian!Martyn to @strifesolution , who is the local Yogscast fan among us space operators that make up the au, and since lumians are a yogs aliens.

General spopera tdlr is: treebark are spaceship racers! For the space opera au I think we’ve been allowed to make things up a bit and play around with the lumian worldbuilding. Here’s what I got from the collective lore google docs for the au:

Lumians are a bipedal humanoid species that produces a bioluminescent element in their bodies called bioneos. Lumians are identifiable by bioneos freckles. In the au and out of the main characters, Martyn and False are lumians, Martyn having an almost cyan tone to his bioneos, while False has red.

The colour varies, and it can help track family lineage, despite the fact that lumians are typically a communal species with no nuclear family unit. However, some lumian families that leave their home planet may no longer have the community support, and likely adopt a family unit home style.

Lumians may have “gendered” appearances but they are a unisexual species. Societal roles in lumian culture are often decided by stature. Shorter, broader lumians often take to building, hunting, and child rearing. Taller, more slender lumians will take to taming, climbing, and navigation.

The home planet of Lumians, Corruscate, has a tropical climate. The planet is mostly covered in jungle and forests, with megaflora that cast dark shadows. To compensate for the darkness created, living species in Corruscate, as the lumians themselves, have bioneos that create the bioluminescence typical of lumians.

Since lumians are from a hot planet, they are particularly susceptible to cold and temperature drops. As a defense mechanism to save energy mentally and physically, and to be able to get themselves out of the cold, they’ve evolved “glacieration”, also known as “frost mode”

Frost mode is essentially a survival mode to keep them alive. As the temperature decreases the lumian will feel cold and uncomfortable and sick, until they suddenly seem to gather themselves and be okay; this, apart from a pale and grey complexion and dulled glow, is a sign of frost mode.

The body freezes over as it switches its priority from maintaining heat to creating adrenaline for the lumian to use to get themselves into a safe temperature. However, the modern lumian can decide to ignore the primitive urge to warm up and instead do other activities, although prolonged frost mode is lethal.

A result of the intense shot of adrenaline is erratic behaviour, like apathy or snapping or being aggressive.

(These pieces I made for treebarkweek, for example, were meant to be about frost mode happening while Ren and Martyn went to a very cold planet for a race. The assumption is that the cold discomfort happened mid-race, but Martyn refused to retire. Afterwards when Ren follows him into the lockers he finds him fully in frost mode; he can't feel the cold anymore since he's sort of icy all over now, and he's pumped full of adrenaline and suceptible to being irrational, so he'll probably pick a fight with Ren if Ren decides to chastise him about putting the race before his health)

(My guy is ice. He's producing cold clouds. Someone give him lukewarm water)

(Also it might be obvious already but frost mode was taken from the idea of having inthelittlefrost in the au somehow.)

man i have to say being an iskall fan this season of hermitcraft is almost overwhelming i look away from hermitcraft for two days and he has like FIVE VIDEOS. and most of those are vodskall but frankly vodskall is some of his best stuff! but the thing is that this is an INSANE problem to be having as an iskall fan. like imagine telling me from a year ago "hey you are going to be having trouble watching iskall not because of LACK of accessible content, but because you're going to have SO MUCH OF IT". i wouldn't have believed you. i would have accused you of taunting me. and yet here we are. what a world we live in man,

#iskall85 #hes such a funny guy and makes such funny content <3

Orange app overestimating Xisuma is funny but I do NOT want to go in and be like “haha actually” because I don’t want them to be mean to anyone, especially new players, and I already get the vibe some parts are measuring new players for their mechanical skills (which will not completely show up this early!!) rather than team chemistry or vibes. Like yes HC fandom has a tendency to affectionately bully Xisuma but they’ll do the bullying wrongly 🧍😐

#ria.txt #i don’t main x so there’s less parasociality but at the same time… orange app i don’t you get it just yet

i genuinely love the mcc subreddit bc they live in such a different world that the bad takes have a whole new flavor

anyway they're saying xisuma is probably gonna be one of the stronger hermits because he's been in twitch rivals before so obviously that means he must be competent

#watching them comparing xisuma to REN has me levitating off my floor sorry #sorry. they are. completely two different types of people. #when it comes to minigames

IN CELEBRATION OF XISUMA IN MCC: one of my favorite xisuma clips of all time. "i made bedwars :(". important additional knowledge: they then proceeded to suck ass so badly. and this is also after they had already sucked so badly,

Hi guys!!1! This is my first time making skins for an MCC team so I'm kind of nervous... But I worked reeeeally hard, so I thought I'd share them! And if any CCs see this you're welcome to use them of course!! Go Green Geckos!! #mc_championship #mcc36 #mccfanart

↑ massive slash j for everything up there ofc... Unless? Lmao. I swear half of Scott's decision-making w this team colour was based on Xisuma's skin... Memes aside I am genuinely so hyped for this team & this season of MCC in general, I hope Shashwam has fun & everything goes great & extremely silly :D

Anyway uuuuh 10 notes and I'll try actually making these skins, I guess? 👁️👁️ Or someone else can snatch up the idea & make them, probably much faster than I could. Maybe someone's already doing it and nothing is original wheeee

welp, i know this is the diggity dog coping blog, but i m personally praying for quig, miss him :( quig + eloise + ren + martyn (who s obv gaslighting) pink team incoming i know

🙏 that would be such a cute pink team! would love it if the pink teams are actually hype teams instead of merely clout teams if you get me

#or even just normal teams #sometimes the hype becomes so much that ppl get disappointed when their method of elimination guesses wrongly #ask box #answered

Sometimes their actions do the talking. It’s a critical part of racing— knowing what to do to best suit your partner. To be able to instinctively read your partner’s needs and accommodate that. Two puzzle pieces melding together. Maybe False is right. Maybe dancing will be a good exercise. - After leaving prom early to participate in a street race, False teaches Ren how to dance. (Space Opera AU. No prior knowledge needed.)

After two years of desperately staring at mostly empty document scraps I finally wrote an actual highschool Spopera FalseRen oneshot that isn't in-universe fanfic. I got infected by the Spopera brainworms and it would NOT leave me so I had to write something, anything. Anyways yay song inspo is Space Age Love Song by A Flock of Seagulls ❤️
