(A more detailed image description + transcript of the chat is below the cut)
Detailed Image Description Start:
Gameplay Description:
The game looks like an 8-bit platformer, coloured various shades of grey. In the middle is a pixelated lanky pink character, leaping down from the lowest platform towards the right. The character is engulfed in a fire ball, with more sparks flying behind it. The text in the top corners indicate that Saiki is on Level 18, with 5 lives left.
Saiki’s Webcam Description:
Saiki is wearing green goggles, grey face-mask, and a purple jacket. His desk is brown, and holds a wireless mouse and keyboard, a soundboard, and a tablet.
There are two shelves behind him, lit with bright blue and pink lights. The top shelf has a locked chest and two Psi symbols leaning on each other, one purple and one green. The lower shelf has three cups of coffee jelly and a pink teddybear that’s wearing green goggles and a purple shirt with the psi symbol, resembling himself.

Missing home
Sebastian rubs his eyes, glancing over at his partner after yawning. He puts on his sunglasses, groaning, after the light burns his retinas. "I know you're not asleep." He rolls over and perches his cheek against his hand. "Is something troubling you?"
Agni nods.
Sebastian sits up. "Would you like to tell me about it?"
Agni sits up and eyes his partner with a frown and sorrowful gaze. He traces an unfamiliar shape that Sebastian can not decipher, especially with dark tints over his eyes. Agni tries again, but he draws a pentagon this time. Sebastian tilts his head so he draws a box with a triangle on top.
"A house."
Agni touches his nose and fake coughs.
"House, nose, and coughing? Sorry you lost me."
Agni sighs and pretends to sneeze.
Sebastian observes him acting out a scenario and raises an eyebrow, putting the pieces together in his mind; He sighs. "This would be easier if you could sign or..."
Agni furrows his brows with a scowl. He crosses his arms and turns away with a pout. A soft moan escapes his lips despite attempting to stay mad as Sebastian leans on him and draws circles around his nipple.
"You're right, and I'm sorry." Sebastian plants a kiss on his cheek and smiles as he has a light bulb moment. "Are you homesick?"
Agni drops his guard and nods with a soft smile. His face heats up and darkens with his smile growing wider at Sebastian's light pecks on his brown skin. They rock together, caressing each other's hair and lips touching.
"Maybe someday we can go visit your country. I've been wondering what it's like to be in India. Would you like that?"
Agni nods vigorously and claps, and hums.
Sebastian laughs, fiddling with his long snow white hair. "I'll take that as a yes." He pulls on the string attached to the light and removes his sunglasses, sighing in content as his sleeping partner breathes.

HI....your future camper designs have been dancing around my silly brain all day today............I am so curious abt so many of them... can u tell me something abt Chloe...its design is just too awesome to me...
Ohhh I can say so many things about Chloe. It has so much going on
Tumblr media
Sets these old doodles down on the table in front of you. I thought Chloe had great potential to be some sort of psychic mad-scientist, and I thought it would be really cool if she had a vigilante/anti-hero thing going on. i decided she’d grow to bond with Benny because his whole gimmick was being a mindless goon, and what’s a good mad scientist without a little henchman?
Chloe is a shutin by day, vigilante by night psychic who studies and experiments with psitanium regularly. It’s learned to utilize psitanium as a power-up for her abilities, since it’s actually not a particularly powerful psychic on its own. Its experiments have left it with. A few strange scars and shiny markings, but im sure that’s totally cool and not at all negatively impactful!
she doesn’t work with the psychonauts, nor does she work against them. It’s definitely a “stay out of my way and I’ll stay out of yours” scenario, but since Chloe does some very questionable work, she often finds that the psychonauts do Not Want to “stay out of her way.” They aren’t aware of her identity under the helmet, but her vigilante alter-ego has become increasingly infamous in the Motherlobe meeting rooms for being far too elusive and very tough to catch!
it’s recently begun attempting to take its work to the next level by experimenting with psilirium, which Benny does not approve of and he actively shuts himself out of the lab whenever Chloe decides to delve into those specific experiments. It’s tough for him, because he and Chloe have basically become inseparable since their camp years, but he knows where to draw the line between experimental and stupid, and he finds Chloe experimenting with psilirium to be very, very stupid.

File: Killer Klowns from Outer Space
SCP#: AAC
Code Name: The Killer Klowns from Outer Space
Object Class: Somnum
Special Containment Procedures: The last ship that arrived on earth was ultimately destroyed by [data expunged] after the [data expunged] incident. Therefore, no containment procedures on SCP-AAC were made. However, the chances of that ship SCP-AAC came to earth from, being the only on in existence is extremely low. As such, Mobile Task Force Apollo-1 “Orion’s Belt” is to remain alert at all times in case any object, that matches the description of the ship that SCP-AAC used to invade earth, enters our solar system. This is why SCP-AAC is given the object classification of Somnum.
Description: SCP-AAC are a species of hostile alien organism that seem to resemble grotesque forms of clowns on earth. SCP-AAC instances tend to vary in heights, sizes, body proportions, and facial structure. Though according to the reports from [data expunged] there was one in particular that was extremely large and beast like compared to the other SCP-AAC instances. Thought weather this SCP-AAC instance was a leader or just a beast of some kind is unknown. It is also unknown as to why, disregarding their grotesque appearances, SCP-AAC instances resemble clowns on earth so closely. Unfortunately, no Foundation staff were able to interact with any SCP-AAC instances. As such, the only information on SCP-AAC instances was obtained from various reports made from survivors of [data expunged]. A hypothesis was made stating that SCP-AAC instances invaded earth eons ago, and humanity modeled its own clowns after species of SCP-AAC. However, there is no concrete historical evidence to confirm this.
SCP-AAC instances based on reports of their last invasion hold technology so advanced that it goes beyond human comprehension. For example, SCP-AAC instances are able to make ballon dogs that can act like living ones. SCP-AAC instances themselves have been reported to ride on thin air as if in an invisible car and can even crash into other cars causing massive damage but absolutely no harm to the SCP-AAC instance. Then there are SCP-AAC instances capable of creating shadow puppets able to affect real life objects and organisms. It is hypothesized that this is merely the tip of the iceberg of the reality bending capabilities of SCP-AAC as a species. However, due to the destruction of their ship, there is no further information available on SCP-AAC instances, their technology, their anomalous capabilities, or their biology.
Reports form [data expunged] say that SCP-AAC instances are born form what looks to be popcorn but is more like “larva” version of SCP-AAC instances. Once these larvae find a suitable area to grow, they will either begin to change into infant SCP-AAC instances. SCP-AAC infants look like grotesque fleshy snakes that instead have small and disgusting clown heads and teeth more vicious than their parents. Because of this it is hypothesized that SCP-AAC instances aren’t humanoid at all and the humanoid bodies they do possess are just bio suits used for interaction and protection. Again, there is unfortunately nothing to confirm this.
SCP-AAC instances like to load this larva popcorn into their weapons as a means of spreading their offspring into different areas. It is theorized that this is just one of many methods they have of conquest. As typical of alien conquerors, they come to planets like earth with the intent to either take the planet or take resources form the planet; regarding the SCP-AAC instances, it is the ladder. SCP-AAC instances have a preferred form of advanced weaponry that takes the appearance of a toy blaster. They use this blaster to instantly bundle humans into cocoons of what looks like cotton candy. Unfortunately, this leads to instant death for the victim. This is their preferred method of obtaining prey as doing so allows them to store it easy. Furthermore, they can later stab straws into the cocoons, allowing them to drink the victims blood.
A peculiar part of the report from [data expunged] is that the SCP-AAC instances also have blaster that traps people in giant ballons. This is the only method of capture the SCP-AAC instances have where the victim could actually survive. Though why they would encase the victim in said ballon is unknown. It is hypothesized that they do this for an unknown method to preserve the victim for a more exquisite meal. again, with no evidence, this remains a hypothesis and nothing more.
SCP-AAC instances are strong, have advanced technology, and quite possible reality bending abilities, however they are not unstoppable. SCP-AAC instances cannot be killed by gunshots or be dismembered as they can easily and comedically grow new limbs. If the reports are to be believed, SCP-AAC instances can only be killed when they receive damage, preferably piercing damage, to the nose. This will result in their entire body combusting into green energy. This is the only known method to kill SCP-AAC instances.
SCP-AAC was discovered in 1988 after reports came in of "killer clowns" attacking the small town of [data expunged]. Apparently, the report was supposed to be sent out earlier, but the local sheriff refused to call it in. He ignored the situation as long as possible because he believed the entire town was just pranking him. It was because of his pride that local authorities as well as the Foundation itself, failed to save a majority of the town.
When the report was finally sent, local police forces as well as units from Mobile Task Force Iota-10 “Damn Feds” were dispatched to the [data expunged] carnival where they witness the destruction of SCP-AAC’s ship. Afterwards the survivors were brought into questioning by the local police. Everything they said in the interrogations was sent right back to the Foundation, thanks to the MTF Iota-10 units. Afterwards the police force and the survivors who witness the incident were given Class G Amnestics. due to their altered memories and the lack of evidence, all police forces and survivors retold the story as a terrorist attack rather than an alien invasion. The incident is now known as the [data expunged] rapture. Thankfully, since then, local authorities have all but given up on trying to find the missing victims of SCP-AAC.
The year SCP-AAC invaded was 1988 and as of writing this document it is 2023, yet no new instances of SCP-AAC have entered any part of our solar system. However, MTF Apollo-1 as well as space faring Foundation staff are advised to remain cautious of any sightings of SCP-AAC ships or instances.
"The fact that a small town could have been saved from these creatures but wasn't because of the ego and narcissism of one sheriff baffles me. Are there really people that are so self-absorbed they are willing to believe that even when the whole world is shouting to them a single truth, they believe it all to be lies. Regardless, if there's a hell then I hope this man burns in it, if he had sent out the report earlier, we would have been able to save at least half the people of the town, possibly more!" - Dr. Talic

Some Team 8 + Sand Sibs chara sheets
I procrastinated writing yesterday by doing little chara sheets for my polycule AU.
Kiba and Shino have been dating since they were teens. Shino and Hinata have been dating since college. Kankurou and Kiba start dating at 22/25 (I am writing this fic). Hinata and Kankurou may or may not have some queerplatonic relationship going on eventually.
I used this picrew for the sheets!
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Additional facts!
Kiba:
Inuzuka Kiba isn't his legal name, he is still officially registered under his deadname and his father's family name. He might change it once his father's dead, probably not before that since he doesn't want him to know about it. The rest of the polycule handle most of his mail so he doesn't have to deal with it unless necessary.
He is Japanese through his father and Filipino through Tsume.
Hana is his half-sister (different father).
He transitioned in his late teens and has been on T + post-top surgery for some years now.
He got a hysterectomy for endometriosis.
He doesn't smoke much anymore, mostly vapes, which allows him to control CBD/THC levels and ratio better.
Kankurou:
He doesn't identify as trans, but might identify as non-binary somewhere along the way. He's fine with being seen as a man and conveniently goes by he/him, but is honestly a bit too psychotic and dissociated to really have an opinion about his gender and gendered body.
He is Jewish through his mother, but was raised by Baki (here, Rasa's half-brother) so most of his relationship with Judaism and Jewishness is self-taught reconnection.
He had only one brief relationship before Kiba and had sort of settled for the idea of not trying to look for partners (both romantically and sexually) because it was a lot of work and socialisation and it didn't feel all that too important for him, but hey, shit happens. (Kiba happens, and it's good shit.)
He gets a colectomy and stoma bag for his ulcerative colitis around 25 (again, the KankuKiba fic is about that). He probably won't try to get a reversal surgery in the future because he hates surgeries and hospitals.
Shino:
He mostly uses Makaton and text-to-speech as AAC. The former is easier for short indications and requests in daily life, and the latter for more complex conversations.
He gets on opioid replacement therapy sometime during his teens, although still injects occasionally as an adult.
He was initially assigned male at birth, and then reassigned female during his childhood, which he (very understandably) did not live well. Shibi defended his right to choose his gender presentation and refuse further intersex surgeries after that, and he's been mostly living as a boy/man since then. He half identifies as a cis man, half not because dissociation and plurality and trauma make gender complicated but he's sort of working through it. He'd still consider his relationship with Hinata straight, and his relationship with Kiba gay.
His parents broke up when he was a kid (in part over the decisions made about him) and Shibi raised him for the most part. He sometimes sees his mother as an adult, but they're relationship is not very good.
Hinata:
It's been a bit of a struggle to slowly acclimate Hiashi to her being part of a polyamorous relationship, but he does like Shino a lot, so that helped. (He doesn't have an excellent opinion of Kiba but they also mostly never see each other and they're happy with that.)
She has a fairly ok relationship with her family now, but being able to move out and live in group with way less hierarchy and a whole lot more community support has been very healing and helping with having more resources to maintain her relationship with her family too.
Kankurou does all her phone calls (as that of about everyone in the polycule, to be honest).
And the sibs!
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Gaara:
He's had a lot of autism-related struggles as a child/teen, but functions much better as an adult now that he understands his needs better and has accommodated his daily life to them. He works as a landscaper but has a lot of at-home work hours.
Lee is his first relationship (I also have a fic about that) and he does think he's gay? But also never has thought about neither his orientation nor the idea of dating and who he would want to date much before that, so he's not sure. He's going with that for now.
He waxes his eyebrows because he compulsively plucks them otherwise. Dying his hair also helps with trying not to pluck them.
He was mostly raised by Yashamaru, who is Jewish and raised him Jewish, but has a bit of a complicated relationship with that because there was a lot of projection on Yashamaru's end, and difficulty to see him as his own person and not just his late sister's baby. He's not religious although he sort of still observant out of habit. (Ex: he doesn't necessarily care about eating kosher, but it's also the food he's used to make and eat, so he will still go for that most of the time.)
Temari (in pyjamas mode in this picture because I didn't have something less casual that fitted her style in the picrew):
She works as a diplomat and is very much a workaholic. The trauma is strong but the grind is stronger.
Just like Kankurou, she was raised by Baki and her connection to Jewishness and Judaism are mostly self-taught. She is a bit less observant than Kankurou.
She has chronic pain that she probably ignores a bit too much, but who can really stop her. (Kankurou should try and probably does.) Compression stockings enthusiast.
She has a motorcycle that Kankurou is very afraid to ride. (Gaara is okay.)
I'll probably do more in this AU later!

Hi Anny!! Got a writing prompt for ya!
So I’ve been seeing your little snippets of the KOW! Swapped AU between Star!Asha and Human!Aster, and they’re all soo cute X33
But now I’m wondering, what would the “At All Costs” scene look like? Or whatever song you swapped for AAC.
Would it be Aster who goes somewhere else private to practice his music? Would it be Asha who’s encouraged by their friends to confess to Aster? How does Aster react? How does Asha handle confessing?
Imagine the 7 (or 6 in this scenario) teens in the background being like: “JUST KISS THAT BOY ALREADY-!!”
Like I said in my original post about the AUs here:
Asha would sing "You Chose Me" from the musical "Breathe" as I think it fits her bubbly and happy personality very well. Now as for how a scene of them would play out, let's see...
After a lot of encouragement from the seven teens, Asha finally makes her way through the woods, following the sound of Aster's music. She finds him standing near a river, with his mandolin strapped on his shoulder, as he practices the magic she has given him.
(As I write this I realize that whole scene in KOW when Asha and Aster are hiding and Asha draws clones of themselves would have to change... Cause drawing is relatively silent, but playing music ain't lol so I guess Human!Aster's approach would be different, in this moment that is about him showing his growth... Maybe something more about him not being afraid to be loud and clear...)
Aster is trying to sing and hit a high note as loud as he can, by doing so he creates sound waves that make the water of the river tremble, but it's not enough, it wouldn't be strong enough to, let's say, knock someone out of balance for example, he gotta try harder.
Aster was so focused on his high note he didn't notice the light coming from behind him, till he feels a finger tap on his shoulder. He stops playing and turns around quickly
"AH- Oh hey Asha" the human didn't quite notice how nervous Asha seemed, like she was anxious to tell him something "Did Simon finish his dinner? We're good to go?"
"Umm yeah, everyone's ready, but- well... I wanted to ask you something first..." Asha can practically feel the 7 teens staring at them behind some bushes, waiting to see her confess... But instead Asha blurted out "Whatcha doing?" she asked awkwardly
"Just trying something different. I wondered if I could cause a sound wave strong and loud enough to be more destructive ya know... But no matter what I feel like my voice is like, stuck in my throat, ya know? Like it should be louder, but I'm holding back, even though I want to let it all out..." He explained with a pondering gaze on the mandolin
"... It takes time to find your voice, but I think the power you already have inside is more than enough to defeat them" The star smiled warmly as she spoke from her heart
"Let's hope. But yeah, what I can do is already pretty great, like, check this out" Aster plays a fast paced melody, and suddenly, the strings of his mandolin start to burn and he creates a fireball "I can make fire! That oughta be useful, right?" They try holding the fireball... It is- "HOT!" He exclaims as he throws the spell in the river "... Ya know, on second thought, maybe I'm not ready to go to the castle yet, maybe we should leave the plan for tomorrow or-"
"I know we'll win." Asha reassures him "You got a lot more power than you think, and that goes way beyond my magic"
Aster smiles and feels his cheeks getting warmer "Heheh thanks. I guess I'm just nervous cause'... Well, everything HAS to go according to plan"
"And what if it doesn't?" Asha tilts her head with a knowing smile
"Then Queen Amable kills us, I guess, or throws us in the dungeon to be her hubby's little lab rats" He shrugs, finding the outcome quite obvious
"... I don't know if things will go according to plan, but..." Asha holds both his hands, looking at him in the eyes with a radiant and optimistic smile that could make any shred of doubt fade away "As long as you follow your heart, you'll find a way... That's what made you wish upon me in the first place, right?" Asha giggled
Aster looks at her fondly, she's like the embodiment of hope...
"OH MY GOD- JUST KISS THE B-" Hal yelled from the bushes, to which Asha used her magic to make a wall of trees in front of the 7 hidden teens to hide them
"What was tha-"
"NOTHING!" Asha blurted out nervously
"Maybe the others are calling us, we should go" Aster begins to walk towards the trail that leads to their camp. But then, he feels her warm hand holding his wrist
"A-Aster wait!" Her voice shakes as she holds him, he looks back at her confused, so she tries her best to explain "I just... I think I discovered something new about how I feel about you... Well your friends did, but that's not the point" She mumbled the last part to herself "And I have so much I wanna tell you, but I don't know how to even start..." Then, Asha glances at Aster's mandolin for a moment, and that gives her idea "... Maybe I could try speaking your language... Can you give me a tune?" She asks with a soft smile
Aster is not quite sure where this is going, he raises an eyebrow at the request but complies "Uuuh sure ok" He starts to play a simple melody
And we get the song "You Chose Me"
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
I SPENT THE WHOLE AFTERNOON WRITING THIS LMAO @flicklikesstuff YOU BETTER APPRECIATE IT- just kidding, I had fun, but man, everytime these two are cute together I just covered my face blushing and giggling, kicking my feet, theyre so precious I cant hhidhefheljehbgfhhe

how do the performances work in your disabled wxs au? like how does each character's disability affect the way they perform/the adaptations that help them put on shows (hopefully i phrased that well)
performances work much the same, but there are definitely adaptations that have to be made!
the wonderstage is fixed up largely by wxs themselves to be more smooth and even for emu's and nene's sakes. emu uses a wheelchair part time and can walk, but nene can't walk at all, so it's imperative the stage is wheelchair accessible.
rui will sing but prefers to sign when possible, so they work scripts so that they can do so and have someone interpret or just play nonspeaking characters.
emu in nonverbal and uses an AAC device, so she has to preprogram all her lines into the device before the show. also, she cannot begin her lines and move at the same time, since she uses either a wheelchair or a walker at all times, so that needs to be worked around.
tsukasa isn't diagnosed until later in the AU, but he does have chronic pain, so sometimes schedules need to be reworked if he has a pain flareup.
i also did some research into wheelchair dancing for this AU and i think it's neat and can totally imagine nene and emu doing it so you should look it up!! it's awesome.

not to be extremely predictable abt the characters i ask abt but do you imagine any of the p7 are still around during or right before the future au? i know they are. Old. but i always am fond of the concept of like the old folks helping out at the camp after pn2.
Im always so very tossed up about how and If the p7 are still around during the aac timeline . But for the sake of “it would be funny if,” I will simply say they Are. (And ramble more about the thoughts ive had about a couple that might Not be and Why under a cut bc its kind of depressing)
Otto will never die and will never leave the Motherlobe much to Hollis and Truman’s dismay. The older he gets the more powerful he gets. He continues to contribute, arguably with increasing efficiency, but as each year passes he gets less and less concerned about getting caught doing things outside of the parameters of Psychonauts rules. “What are you gonna do? Fire me? Lmao” *goes back to working on his death beam that he just made because it was funny.*
I have this hc that at some point Sam makes it her mission to renovate the Lumberstack Diner as the Questionable Area? becomes more profitable over the years. And i think Compton working as a cook there would be a nice little job for him to have while in retirement. Cooking is like the one type of stress he can handle i think. Hes so so scared but in the comfort of something familiar so its less likely to cause him to start blowing things up.
Bob and Helmut deserve a nice little retirement home and I think theyre the primary residents of the Gulch (next to maybe Cassie and Compton?) They supervise (re: sometimes run into and chat with) Raz and his team who have basically taken up their own residence in the Gulch. Perks of being teammates with agent Aquato and Zanotto is that you dont have to resort to dormitories.
I’m not sure what’s up with Cassie! I don’t think she’s doing much either, probably also sticking around the Gulch. Though i think through the support of the others she at least gets Slightly more involved with the Psychonauts or going out into towns to do book signings so that she doesn’t become a complete and total recluse again.
I think Ford and Lucy are out traveling a lot while they’ve still got the time to. Making up for a whole lotta lost time n all that, giving each other time to talk and jazz. They’re not around a lot but they visit often!
Ok. And a very specific less sweet outcome for Ford and Lucy under the cut
When i run through which characters it would be like. Narratively “Best” to have passed away around the AAC timeline, my mind always immediately jumps to these two. Like obviously I think some characters would be more likely to have died before them (looking at you my friend Bob) or ones that could be more impactful in other directions (Cassie and Compton having to learn to exist without one another) but considering their last narrative experiences in Pn2 was finding each other again for the first time in years, it feels like any of those four (Bob, Helmut, Cassie, Compton) passing away would just be a disservice to prior storytelling. And Otto will never die, as I’ve said, so don’t even worry about him <3
I just think a lot about a story in which Ford and Lucy pass on before Raz can ever really reconcile any of his issues he had with either of them. A story in which he’s happy to see them getting along and traveling together, but every time they leave he holds his breath and counts down the days until they make it back and he can guarantee they’re still alive and he goes “This time, this time I’ll say something,” and then he doesn’t because how do you even bring up that conversation after all this time.
And then eventually they pass and it’s almost poetic, really, going at around the same time. But he never got to say anything to them, never got to reconcile and barely got a goodbye. And now he has to learn how to deal with that. How to deal with the fact that they’re still everywhere, in True Psychic Tales issues, on murals, on old pictures, inherently buried in the history of the psychonauts.
And i dont know. I think it’s an interesting story to explore. In a hypothetical real Psychonauts future story, you enter the story with some characters trying to question Raz about something theyre worried about that he always cuts off or dodges before you get to hear, but the lack of any mention of Ford or Lucy is so absent that it’s palpable. Stuff like that.
