ok so i was going to wait until i finished the cover but WHATEVER!!! this is something i’ve been (slowly) working on since last summer. my own idea for a sonic game: Sonic & the Candy Cuties!!

i’ve got usual gameplay pretty much down along with some ideas for boss fights, but the actual plot is a bit spotty currently (which is ironic since usually i care much more about the story than the gameplay). anyways more info on the candy cuties and everything under the cut!!

WARNING: THIS GOT REALLY LONG vvvvv

THE CANDY CUTIES

Sugar and Spice make up the Candy Cuties, a duo working to destroy Sonic and conquer the world in the name of Eggman!

Sugar: Silly and lighthearted, Sugar is more carefree than her partner. She can be rather ditzy and cutesy, but don't let that fool you into a false sense of security! Sugar is extremely powerful and a worthy enemy.

Spice: Aggressive and hot-headed, Spice is more hostile than her partner. With her burning passion and determination, she's a force to be reckoned with, especially when working with Sugar.

Sugar and Spice were employed by Eggman to destroy Sonic after he heard about their reputation as small-time villains.

GAMEPLAY

In SatCC, you play as Sonic. By completing certain levels, you can unlock the following characters: Tails, Knuckles, Amy, Shadow, and Rouge.

Sonic and Shadow are Speed Types.

Knuckles and Amy are Power Types.

Tails and Rouge are Flight Types.

You can only play as certain characters in certain levels - after completing the game, you can play all levels as the other character of the same type. (EX: Playing a Sonic level as Shadow.)

CHARACTERS

Speed Type Levels: SA2-Sonic/Shadow-style levels where the goal is to get to the end as fast as you can. Taking inspo from Colors, it switches from 3D to 2D.

Power Type Levels: Beat-em-up-style levels where the goal is to fight off waves of enemies and progress to the end. 2D.

Flight Type Levels: Air levels where the goal is to dodge obstacles and fight enemies to progress to the end. 2D side-scroller.

Sonic: High speed, medium damage. Special attack: Sonic Wind (propels him forward at high speed)

Shadow: High speed, medium damage. Special attack: Chaos Blast (destroys all nearby enemies)

Tails: Medium speed, medium damage. Special attack: Tornado Beam (clears screen of enemies)

Rouge: Medium speed, medium damage. Special attack: Night Flurry (makes her invincible to enemies and can go through obstacles for a short period of time)

Knuckles: Low speed, high damage. Special attack: Earthquake (stuns screen of enemies)

Amy: Low speed, high damage. Special attack: Rosy Rush (High damage attack that kills most enemies instantly within an average range around her)

DUO STAGES

Occasionally there will be stages that involve two characters. These are called Duo Stages. Duo Stages can have any pairing of two characters, whether they be the same type or a different type.

In Duo Stages, you can either play as one character and have the other one be the computer, but there is also the option for a second player to join in as the second character.

COMBINATIONS:

2 Speed Types: A race to see who can get to the end first, like SA2 2P Sonic/Shadow levels. If playing with a second player, it becomes split screen.

2 Power Types: A co-op battle. Characters work together to destroy enemies and advance to the end.

Power & Flight: A co-op battle. Characters work together to destroy enemies and advance to the end. Power type destroys enemies on the ground while Flight type destroys enemies in the sky. 2D.

2 Flight Types: A co-op mission. Characters work together to advance to the end.

Speed & Power: A co-op mission. Speed type runs through the level, while Power type destroys enemies and obstacles to aid them. 3D.

Speed & Flight: A co-op mission. Speed type runs through a 2D level and dodges obstacles while enemies shoot at them from the sky, which the Flight Type can destroy.

ZONES

There are 8 zones total. In order, they are:

Minty Field Zone

Dessert Desert Zone

Boba Sea Zone

Gingerbread Mountain Zone

Peppermint Tundra Zone

Cocoa Jungle Zone

Candy Castle Zone

Egg Base Zone

(pictured above: concept art for duo boss fight layout, “saucer” object, and alt. candy cutie form)

STORY

Again, surprisingly the least-fleshed out part of this so far. (and I call myself a writer lol) The main plot begins with Sonic chillin before the CC appear. They have a bit of back-and-forth with Sonic (he loves teasing them villains) before activating a mysterious machine (or something). Suddenly the landscape transforms into a bright candy land, and before Sonic can ask what they’ve done they run off cackling.

Sonic (and eventually the other characters - Tails, Knuckles, Amy, Shadow & Rouge - I haven’t worked them into the story yet lololol) work to stop their sickly sweet plot~!

[insert the rest of the story here]

yeah............... ok so i dont have the middle stuff but here’s what happens at the END:

in what seems like the final boss fight, sonic fights both of the candy cuties together. after seemingly beating them however, they transform to another form (seen in the art above) and you have to beat another phase where they’re way harder. it’s their last ditch effort, and they nearly overpower sonic, but then the rest of the playable characters show up! with their help, sonic manages to beat them.

eggman shows up and the candy cuties, defeated and weak, call for help. but their pleas fall on deaf ears, as eggman cackles and reveals that he was going to betray them from the beginning. the defeated CC watch in horror as eggman abandons them and steals their candy machine thingy to power up his own big robot thing or whatever. eggman is about to strike them when suddenly they’re swept up by... sonic!

sonic yanks them out of harm’s way with his super speed, much to the surprise of both the CC and eggman. the candy cuties ask him why, confused, but sonic simply extends a hand to them. spice doesnt want to trust him, but sugar convinces her. sonic pulls them back up and asks if they can still fight. they nod, and in the REAL final boss fight, the candy cuties fight side by side with sonic and his friends, and manage to take down eggman.

the game ends with sonic and the gang celebrating, and the candy cuties being forgiven. after restoring the land back to normal, sugar and spice head off as sonic n friends wave them goodbye.

(this isn’t shown in the game, but they then retire to a little cottage together, being slightly evil and getting visits from sonic, whom they eventually become good friends with. oh also important note: im trying to stay somewhat realistic to what would actually be in a sega-approved sonic game, but the candy cuties are highly implied/coded (and are!!!) to be in a relationship.)

CONCLUSION

Uh yeah so that’s kinda what I have so far!! I’ve been thinking about this concept for a WHILE, and I can’t wait to flesh the story out more and figure out more of the game mechanics and boss fights. very glad to finally share it with you all ^_^

bonus: some old cursed art of the candy cuties. they were originally going to be mobians, but i really didnt like these designs and went for a more deadly six approach, where they’re not mobian but still look like sonic characters. i did one in the official style (by tracing some official art) and one as a quick doodle in my style (AT THE TIME) anyways i hate these:

cursed.

anyways peace out! <3

50 or so hours into Cyberpunk 2077

This should be roughly the correct amount of time, ive been leaving the game running as I get up to get food or do stretches. Quests are roughly in order I did them

non spoilers above cut:

i haven't found a single hat/helmet i like, and since you can't hide them I just am not wearing any. It matters that much.

I posted the other day about bugs, every few hours I play I find new bugs. some require me to go back and reload a save others I honestly can’t tell if it’s a bug or just really poor development

there are several perks that don’t quite do what the description says, like the Anamesis perk. Based on reddit and trying it out it seems to just not do anything.

sometimes in car chase segments the passenger will say “look out” as cars spawn in my path and hit me. Can’t tell if that was deliberate or a pop in issue

Yeah I’ve just totally given up on doing pacifist things unless required by a mission. Given up on doing stealth too unless a mission objective, except for sneaking around to set up a fight.

:readmore:

the delemain car quest is fun. From the shock of the one going "beep beep motherfucker" and doing a hit and run to start it off, to the GLADOS car i see a lot of people talking about. It was fun to explore the city when i might have missed places like the landfill apparently there is follow up on T-bug's death if you go back to the quick hack shop in Kabuki. It's not much but better than nothing I made the pass with Panam of "what if the room just had one bed". I know she won't do a wlw romance, which is fine since I wouldn’t have chosen her. I enjoy her as a character, don’t get me wrong, my V considers her as a friend, but it seems like theres always drama going on which would be tiring. I would have gone for a fling, i like her leotard-pants combo with all the straps

but also her questline was buggy as hell. Multiple cases of having to reload due to clipping into objects, including her in a driving section, or just insta-dying when collision physics with some rocks broke "your neural network can no longer function independantly of the chip" me slapping my desk: s y m b i o te!!! come on lets have some s y m b i o s i s

in the scene with hellman i really liked how Johnny moved around the room. It made him feel like he was really there. it was hard to follow the convo as I left the room, i would not have understood it without subtitles. But i guess Takemura fucking waterboarded hellman. :|

lol I hope the dialogue is different b/c i refuse to smoke for Johnny

i am level 18 and still can't beat the first opponents in the fist fighting quest. ffs

I looked up the romances options so I went to do the I fought the law quest as soon as i got it. ACAB, but like I literally just met River Ward 2 minutes ago, and I really like him. His earring and cyborg eye, his big fluffy coat. I'm definitely gonna sleep with him Ok i like how when River Ward is dealing with the tiger claws if you interject it leads to a fight. It goes better if you follow his instructions and let him deal with it. Seriously I enjoy that sometimes its good to not pick a dialogue choice.

during the red queen club part, there was no dialogue over the phone. So i reloaded a save and got myself spotted and attacked. Then River showed up to help me <3 and it was more enjoyable having him there. I honestly am not sure if him not going to the club level is bug or not.

then uuuuuugh the worst of irl police "cops are my family" from Detective Han. Again ACAB "FRATERNITY OF CITY COPS RESEMBLES A [Nomad] CLAN NOT AT ALL" ok a few minutes ago i was complaining about bugs, but the character modeling in this game is good (when they're there). You can see body posture, characters jiggle their legs when they are nervous. Like I though character A was just throwing a cigarette on the ground, but then character B flinches back; I realize Char A threw it at B as a fuck you

I'm honestly curious if "I fought the Law" quest will have any impact later on. My choices were that I thought there was more going on than Holt being the only person behind this (based on how complicated the main questline heist is, and keeping an eye on some of the in game news), and told him not to take it to internal affairs, and I loved his response of how he doesn't give a shit what we think, he's doing it anyway.

In the elevator to report in, Johnny said "this muck is deeper than you think, tell them nothing", so i just said that the case was complicated. anyway i love how much of a sarcastic asshole V is

I thought i was being nonlethal with the monk quest, but it seems i accidently killed someone. RIP, but thats kind of the problem with this game. Like when i do the non lethal cyberpychosis quests I equip my non lethal modded gun and hope for the est. I like how a go here kill things quest led to Charles the ripperdoc. He's getting all his parts from scav gang members so I felt obligated to take him out. I got a police bounty for it but w/e.

I merged the Delemain fragments with the whole. Guess he's the meta now. (Side note: some of my favorite rvb fanfic plots are Ai consiousness/memory merging with the humans, so I’m having fun with this game and look foward to introspective fanfic)

Honestly Jonny made some good points, the fragments didn't deserve to die; but also destroying the core and freeing the fragments, they couldn't really function alone.

I was able to rescue Saul fine with stealth. Using cameras and the synapse overload really made it easy. Can't use the sniper rifle reward b/c I don't have the stats for it, and while it has a silencer the fact that it's a ricochette weapon and not a shoot through walls weapons, makes it not as good imo; and theres a legendary one that is stats free for only 100k.

Lol made a pass again at Panam, and she immediately shut me down. I then did Mitch's quest and I love every time someone tells V they area good person.

I hacked the operation carpe noctem shard, and wow the corporations are using ai to make people have cyberpsychosis, or something like that. What a shocker /s, I've played Deus Ex HR before

lol driving through the unifinished interstate, past the fight from Panam's first quest I found a "batcave" with a very nice car, and a manifesto written by "muckman'. But here's my complaint about the loot, there is a legendary top, but it had 16 armor. My current top has 84 armor, like why would i switch?? then later i found a bunker with soviet spies in it. Wild

Doing River's second quest, love the timing of as soon as you ask, why are we breaking in, someone shows up to tell you he got kicked off the force. It's funny how Johnny comments how maybe River's into you, and V just doubts Johnny's words. Love how the first kid asks River if I'm his girlfriend. also wow like oof both the second parts of Judy and River's quest are SUPER fucked UP!! oof like i stopped doing first person mode on the braindances for those quests as soon as i could, just made me too uncomfortable seeing that in first person.

DRIVING IN THE GAME IS BAD! nowhere is it more apparent than the sinnerman quest, which took me 3 times to get the driving section done, as cars spawned out of nowhere to hit me. Then when you restart, there is a bunch of dialogue it doesn't let you fast forward through. The rest of the Sinnerman questline is interesting. My V took every option to tell the dude that he was messed up, and what he was doing was wrong. idk, I was surprised how much dialogue there was that let you buy into his whole "forgiveness thing" and how there wasn't any real dialogue to call him the fuck out, that in seeking forgiveness he continues to do harm both emotional to the mother of the man he killed, but also that he got the husband killed via cop. The later follow up quest, I told him that what he is doing is crazy, studio is just going to profit off this vid. Then I refused to join him prayer, and told him fuck no i wasn't going to hammer him to the cross, or even watch. Yes, the man is scared of dying, and the corporation is exploiting him, but he keeps creating burdens for others. I think the discussion on this quest will be interesting to read, it's definitely my own personal experience with religion coloring my view. Anyway back to a main quest, yeah i don't trust Placide, especially in that scene where he grabs my hand, then jacks in. I ran off to do most of the sidequests here and got some criticism from him. I do love how in the cinema the western movie switches to a mission brief as the netwatch agent talks. its a fun enviromental detail. I took the netwatch offer, i don't think he's being fully honest with me, but he didn't put a virus in my head. As I told Placide later, I didn't pick a side. I like how you can then talk with the agent, who is a fan of Western movies, b/c they show "a simpler time where all good guys carry badges" :eyeroll:, and then V recommends Unforgiven, which from the wiki summary goes against that theme.

Looks like the Voodoo boys all got killed by Netwatch, but I as revenge for them trying to set me up I'm fine with it. Honestly after speaking with ai!Alt I don’t believe their plan of trying to be on good relations with AI would work.

doing the johnny flashback 2, and wow Johnny really is an asshole. Like I had gotten so used to him in side missions I forgot how self centered and unlikable he was.You constantly get prompts to drink or do drugs, which I ignored. But i do love the goth/punk love Rogue and others have.

lol i called it, when Hellman said that the engram would seek to override the host, put V on the engram. I really like how as the relic malfunctions, you wind up in the chair with a cigarette, which you can either smoke and say you are turning into Johnny or throw away. My dialogue "your problem is the ends justify the means", which is true!!! He and Rogue detonated a nuke downtown, does anyone know that, and like ask Rogue about it????

(Funny you can ask Rouge about Johnny silverhand, over the phone, then the game bugs out and spawns her npc where you are. She doens't say much about the nuke, but she does say no one trusts you for jobs). The line of no one trusting you for jobs is pretty funny at level 46 street cred where im at “respected” status. really loving the family atmosphere at River's 3rd quest. Also his big strong arms, and the fact he is no longer a cop. I totally let the kids win, and wow the family dinner where they GRILL YOU over the relationship and try to set the two of you up, then the water tower scene!!!!! I don't love the first person sex cutscenes but they do have personality. I'm glad afterwards you got to tell River about the biochip and that you might die. Because he's so far removed from your personal plot. So I took that option to back out of a relationship.

I do love that you wake up with "river's tanktop" that says "fuck the police" It actually has extremely good armor stats, so thats what I'll wear now.

panam 3rd quest, when shes like why did you help me, I'm like "because it's important to you". Basically the closest you can get to "when a friend asks for help you help them", which as an ex-nomad backstory I really choose the nomad options when ever i can Paralezes quest part 2! I love the piano song but I always think of it as ocean's 11 music. It's also fun to see the computer and see Judy recommended you for the first quest. The emails talk about "forgetting" to hire a staffer, on the balocony a strange antennia was scannable, the color of the roses was remembered wrong... lol guess i was right with those giant wall screens. Its fun environmental details that spell things out before you can notice, and it ties into some other quests where people's behavior is being altered. Actually, this quest "Dream On" I love it! For a while I've been like "wheres the illuminati conspiracy! Here it IS! I chose to follow Elisabeth's wishes and not tell her husband he was being brainwashed. In best case they program him to forget again, in worst case he ends up dead. The gaslighting Elisabeth described is CHILLING, her husband describes a vacation she can't remember and she doesn't know whose memories have been messed with. On your way to the plaza you get a call from someone/something that says the know exactly WHAT you are, any you black out!!! It's such a great feeling of helplessness that you're just one person in a world so big that you can't fight every power. As Johnny said, could be a corporation, could be a rogue ai, either way Jefferson is fucked (and so are you).

8 DISCUSSION POST

Shrek discussion post

First off Shrek is one of my favorite movies of all times from DreamWorks. In class, I didn’t know that Shrek was a book and was later made into a movie in. What was interesting to me that I learned in class was that the meaning of” Shrek” (in Yiddish) meant “Fear/fright” was a post-modern parody (making fun of Disney). Anywho this movie is beyond funny I didn’t understand the jokes when I was a kid but best believe I did catch them in movie night. My all-time favorite movie parts of the movie, of course, are the intro to the movie it’s a classic it makes fun of the classic Disney “intro” with the storybook and the “once upon” theme but instead, he rips out a page in the book and starts laughing. The next scene that tickled me is when Lord Farquaad wants to find a wife and he has the talking mirror, that scene reminded me of the price is right and(copies snow white with the mirror) he has the chance to pick from three of the Disney princesses and what gets every time is when he asked the mirror “mirror mirror on the wall is this, not the most perfect kingdom of them all? “uhhhh Thelonious ““punches the mirror (lmfaooo I always die because of this scene I don’t know why it’s just super funny. Lastly, when Princess Fiona has her kick-ass scene (Disney would never OK!) that scene sticks out like a glove because never in a million years do you ever see a princess beat up men in the woods. (THANKS FOR LISTENING TO MY TED TALK ENJOY)

HARRY POTTER THE SORCERER’S STONE DISCUSSION POST

I just want to say that Harry had the “Hard knock life “(WIZARD EDITION”) the intro was mad dramatic (shows wizard tricks oweeee). SIDEBAR (I didn’t even know that a woman (J.K Rowling) made the Harry Potter’s series that’s super cool. Back to my discussion out of all places why would they put them with this sick ass family (which unfortunately relate to him) honestly I feel like they were so salty cause they were regular ass hell no powers no wizard cool stuff just a basic muggle family. Just imagine having no powers what so ever at the family functions (sad asf wouldn’t even attend). The whole “child slave was a big NO! Child abuse at its finest he couldn't even sleep with his fat spoiled cousin (he really sleeping in that small corner wowwwww of the house like a dog) who is annoying big ass baby. I was happy when Harry found his gang gang. Nobody is going to address this well I am Ron Weasley was THE BEYONCE OF THE GROUP I SAID WHAT I SAID. Let me elaborate on what I mean by Ron is funny asf he doesn’t try hard to be funny because he is naturally funny, Ron sticks out (looks wise he’s a redhead I think redheads are cool like hello you have red hair you’re not basic). He brings the flair to the group because Harry has a lot on his plate and on the other hand, you have Hermione the “goody to shoe” (save the good girl act for class sweetie loosen up) she can do no wrong all in all the trio balances out. What surprises me is the classic cliché that the hero gets the girl is a NO because Ron does and he’s the SIDEKICK (like I said he’s the Beyoncé hello we stan. (THANKS FOR LISTENING TO MY TED TALK ENJOY).

ACCOMPANIED BY WOLVES DISCUSSION POST

This by far is the most twisted and funny 80s scary thriller movie I ever saw never heard of it so I was a bit skeptical about this movie and I was interested. Listen WAS PURE COMEDY OK! I tried to take it seriously but me being me the movie was most definitely 80s MATERIAL. Let’s chat about the relationship with the wife and the husband (the wolf). My thing is my dude just walked out the house because his wolf homies were calling and he dead ass left his wife (for some year) didn’t even return in a week it was some YEARS. Boom sis had about 3 kids looking tired. Fast forward to that boy with the missing tooth. LMFAO I WANT TO HAVE THAT MUCH CONFIDENCE IN MY LIFE TO STUNT ON A GIRL WITH A MISSING FRONT TOOTH (takes some balls to do that). The grandma gave me creepy vibes when she said she deserves a kiss for telling her granddaughter a story (inserts a meme shocking confused face) uhhhhhhh ok (Jaquelin's voice). The way the wolf killed the granny was beyond dramatic (in a funny way). I’ll give granny props how she defended herself one good time. SIDEBAR the wolf was prissy he wasn't a rough wolf) anyways back to him killing her the fact that he knocks her head off CLEAN AND HER HEAD SHATTERED (IN SLOW-MO LMFAO) LIKE A PLATE took me off I couldn’t hold it in class. In conclusion, the best part of the movie was THE WOLF TRANSFORMATION very much 80s (thank god for growth in SPECIAL EFFECTS). The way he tore his face (taking 5 years later) was time-consuming and all the fake blood to make that scene scary SIDEBAR the wife could have run and defended herself I guess she was in shock lmfaoo lol ANYWAYS ( THANKS FOR LISTENING TO MY TED TALK) SIDEBAR 9THIS MOVIE MADE ME CRINGE A LOT.......

CRIMSON PEAK DISCUSSION POST

The crimson peak was by far the best adaption of Bluebeard (I SAID WHAT I SAID). Edith and her ruffles going to bed I know she was hot I don’t know if that was a trend back then but......KILL IT everybody who wore that ruffle drip needs to go to jail like you're literally going to bed in a whole outfit (I know y’ all was hot asf). Locke lol I mean Sir Thomas honestly his role in Marvel sticks to him I always see him as Locke in my head. Edith my good sis you were head over heels for this man. For what reason I have no clue but for you to get embarrassed at the party SIDEBAR (I was laughing at that scene she looked so hurt). OK let’s get to the elephants in the room 1. THE HOUSE before I get married or even go to a man’s house, I need to see how you are living PERIOD sis was oblivious and blind to the bullshit, BLOOD OOZING OUT THE WALLS RED FLAG the house was in the middle of Nowhere (reminds me of courage the cowardly dog) the house literally had a huge hole in the roof (like I said blind to the bullshit) everything was old, rusty, bloody tired, beat down, in disarray, (I guess the love was so strong she look past it LMFAO couldn’t be me). My thing was if the damn ghost wasn’t so ghostly and graphic, she would have caught on to the warning signs (but of course she didn’t). Next elephant INSIST like really your own brother I was SHOOK OK like Ewww sweetie lol your siblings are supposed to be UGLY to you in your eyes. Lastly, I love how (sarcastically speaking) she still loved him in the end when he literally made your life a living hell with the help of his nasty sister. I guess love wins in the end after all huh. (I would neverrrrr) Anyways (THANKS FOR LISTENING TO MY TED TALK)

Jane Eyre Discussion Post

Jane Eyre was the second-best adaption of Bluebeard even though it was a gothic romance it still had a hint of humor (which was funny asf) which I loved because men think they're so slick. Too bad Jane gets played in this movie (inserts tear emoji). Jane endures the same bs family abuse just like Harry Potter minus the wizard magic her situation was a bit more intense because she gets sent to a charter school and continues to get abused. SIDEBAR The opening scene where she gets knocked in her head was a bit hardcore for my eyeballs. SIDEBAR I’m tired of Mia Wasikowska playing these sad roles making her have the hard knock life but it fits her in a weird way I couldn’t imagine her playing a non “my life sucks type of movie or like a thriller mystery type” Anywhoooo SIDEBAR the fact that Jane was mad young and Rochester is old as dirt baffles me (they like them young back in the old days ) I guess age ant nothing but a number hummmm... uhhhh okay (Jaquelin's voice). Rochester refers to Janes as “fairy” “pale little elf “first off, I cringe (gag reflex sound ugghhh) I wouldn’t feel comfortable at all like CAN YOU NOT. The little French girl (Adele) that dance her heart out for Jane and the old lady looks unbothered from her performance took me out and singing at the same time in the movie I'm sorry but I died laughing watching that scene because The scene that puts he is icing on the cake is the wedding scene one her dress was ugly and she was too petite for that dress two the way Rochester wanted to marry her in a hurry took me out she’s literally out of breath with this vail on her face gasping for air THE WEDDING WAS RUSHED AND A DISASTER.

Beauty and the Beast Discussion Post

Beauty by far had the brains and the beauty out of all the classic Disney princesses. Beauty and the beast skip the intro with the cliché book once upon a time theme (THANK GOD). The only thing that sucks with Disney IS THE SINGING I skip through them (FAITHFULLY) I can live without the musicals. I love how beauty had her own mind in the movie in her town they thought she was “ODD” because she loved to read SIDEBAR lol, I never thought it was weird to have a brain and be smart (YIKESSS) Men valued no brains Beauty was beyond the standard girl back in those days anywhoooo also, I love how she wasn’t chasing after a man the men were chasing her but she was very much uninterested. I don’t know if anybody catch it or not but I did when the dad was on horseback and he had to decide which way to go left or right and one side was dark gloomy and spooky while the other one was a normal path SIDEBAR lmao the horse shook his head down like I know he going to pick the wrong way if only animals could talk, and of course he chooses the dark gloomy path people just want the hard life (insert shrug shoulders emoji). I don’t anybody else caught this, but Belle and the beast were coming through with the looks FOR DINNER in the castle (lmfaoo she had a whole outfit just for dinner and it was only them to eating) same for the beast he looks fresh.

Moulin Rouge Discussion Post

The show must go on! I was a bit confused about this movie because it was a mess a lot was going on at first, the first thing that pops into my head “Lady Marmalade” with Christina Aguilera, Lil Kim, Mya, and Pink. What stands out to me was the vivid colors the costumes and the famous soundtrack that was used in this film (which was bomb asf) what was so random to me was the “Green fairy part” she reminded me of a raunchy tinker bell (cringe) SIDEBAR fun fact Ozzy Osbourne is credited as the voice of the green fairy I thought that was cool I honestly don’t know what was the reason for that part to display how drunk they were from the absynthe SIDEBAR I was completely lost with this movie bare with me. It was never a dull moment in this movie LITERALLY, my favorite performance was “Diamonds are a Girl’s Best friend all eyes were on her (AS IT SHOULD BE WHEN YOU’RE THE STAR). SIDEBAR I don’t know why but Satine always remind me of Christina Aguilera. She had the crowd on their knees with the MONEY. During this performance I can see where the trouble starts to brew the MISCOMMUNICATION, Harold tried to “SECURE THE BAG” WITH THE DUKE while John whispering into Christian ear about meeting his dream girl Satine. The saddest part in the story was when we saw she was coughing up blood, passing out and she still chose to perform (THE SHOW MUST GO ON.)

HERCULES DISCUSSION POST

Truth be told I never really watch Hercules (yeah, I know I'm weird) I really didn’t care for Hercules I'm not a Disney fan, But I got the opportunity to see it in class and it was a decent movie all in all. Is it just me or Hercules FEET WAS HUGE like his body proportion didn’t equal out at all? The Hades in this movie is funny, sarcastic and NOT mean he was just a PG type of hades (LOL THAT WAS CUTE DISNEY TO WATER HIM DOWN TO DISNEY STANDARDS FOR THE KIDS). Hade was amusing to watch in the show when we get to see him. Another thing I noticed was the advertisement endorsement scene I instantly think of the crazy Shrek phase when Shrek was on everything at the grocery store. Dreamworks is really on Disney's necks the opening scene to Hercules had A GOSPEL SONG SUNG BY BLACK WOMEN (DISNEY WOULD NEVER). I’m pretty sure Disney was shook and most likely PUNCHING THE AIR (lol). When that scene came, of course, I had goosebumps the soul in their voice lifted the storyline to a thousand. The Mount Olympus scene tickled me when baby Hercules took Zeus lightning bolt and put it in his mouth and shock himself was funny to me as well. SIDEBAR when Hade's losses his shit is so funny to me it’s like I can relate to him more than any character on the movie he was my favorite. Honestly, his do boys need to quit they legit had one job and THEY FAILED.

A Dragon Sized Adventure Chapter 26

Chapter 26: In the Beginning...

*Crash and the others are teleported into the lowest section of the Death Head, right inside the Prehistoric Terrarium. These Terrariums have the ecosystem of the time and place the Time Twister connects to in them. Within those Terrariums are buttons, and those buttons connect to the Time Twister, creating an orb in time and space that warps anyone who enters to that specific point that is contained within it...*

Sonic takes a look at their surroundings. "What kind of place is this? Even Eggman has never made something as big as this..."

*Crash whispers something in Crunch's ear.*

Crunch: "Well, this is the second time Cortex and the others have made something like this, which is called a Time Twister. It basically lets anyone go to any time period they wish. Cortex mostly uses it to steal crystals from any time."

Tails: "Wow! A real, working time machine!"

Crunch: "Yep, but the old one was, and this new one probably is too, made by Dr. Nefarious Tropy. He likes making time paradoxes, yet he wants to keep order too. I bet he'll explain himself more once we find him."

Spyro: "So, then, why can't we go find them now?"

*Espio, Charmy, and Vector had left to scout the area and have just returned.*

Charmy: ♪ "Cause it be no use!" ♫ *Silver can be heard face-palming.*

Knuckles: "Why not? It shouldn't be too hard to punch down a door."

Espio: "Well, they don't use doors. They use force fields of electricity."

OMEGA: "THEN I WILL BLAST THE GENERATORS!"

Rouge: "Omega, must that be your answer to everything? I'm pretty sure that they have prevented that too."

Vector: "There does seem to be some way though. It says we need to collect 5 purple crystals in order to drop the field."

Shadow: "That sounds like an absurd requirement."

Crunch: "Not for Cortex, it isn't. I bet he wants us to collect them for him."

Crash: "He thinks he can fool us!" *He immediately covers his mouth.*

Silver: "Then why should we collect them? They seem pretty safe wherever they are."

Crunch: "Well, Aku-Aku, he's our mask deity who has now been taken by Cortex too, has always had us collect them because they have immense energy that can be used for anything."

Crash: "He trusts us, and we should help him!" *Again, he quickly covers his mouth.*

*Amy, Cream and Big had also left to search the area.*

Cream walks up to Crunch. "Um, Mr. Bandicoot?"

Crunch: "Oh! We never told you our names. I'm Crunch, and this is our little bro Crash."

Crash walks up to Cream. "Hello!"

Cream: "Hello, Mr. Crash."

Crunch: "We also have a sister, but Dr. N. Gin, Cortex's right hand man, has taken her. But we bet she's doing a good job fending herself."

Sonic: "We'll keep a watch for your sister." *He smirks.*

Cream: "Mr. Crunch? What's with all the buttons we found in here?"

Big: "Yeah. We found 5 of them. I guess they must have something to do with what we are in?"

Crunch: "Yep. They fire up the Time Twister that's in here and opens a way to a crystal. Come on, we will show you. Now where's the 1st button?"

Amy: "This way." *Team Rose leads them over to the first button.* "Here it is."

Crunch steps on the button and an orb appears.

Tails: "Wow!"

Crunch: "Indeed. Well, let's get started on collecting those crystals. Oh, and if you guys see gems around, can you collect them?"

Spyro: "Gems? Like these?" *He pulls out a gem from his world.*

Crunch: "No. They're bigger and most are a white color. Cortex can use those to harness planetary energy as well, so we should make sure to be the ones to grab them first. They may be laying around, but they mostly come from destroying crates."

*Crash shows one.*

Cynder: "Why?"

Crash decides to answer by saying "They're filled with Wampa Fruit!" *He breaks the crate, revealing some of those apple-like fruits. He immediately eats them.*

Crunch: "We have to eat, you know."

Cynder: "Indeed."

Crunch: "But be careful with TNT Crates and Nitro Crates. They're really explosive."

*Sonic is now impatient and tapping his foot. He can't wait any longer.* "Alright, enough with the explanations, let's go!"

*Crash blabbers in agreement.*

(Whenever you are ready, press those buttons and jump in the Warp Orb. Note that you can take anyone into these. I'll note if there is anyone who needs to enter specifically. For the most part though, Crash or Crunch (And later Coco) will at least be one of the partners.)

Level 1: A Prehistoric Walk

*Cortex, Uka-Uka and Eggman appears as a hologram as they go though the wormhole.* (This happens off and on.)

Cortex: "Crash, why must you always be a thorn in my side?"

Eggman: "Same for you, Sonic, why must you ruin our plans?!"

Cortex: "Well, we decided on a team up."

Eggman: "Let's see you ruin our plan now!"

Uka-Uka: "WE WILL DESTROY YOU!" *They disappear.*

Crates: 78

Time Trial

Sapphire: 1:45.00

Gold: 1:30.00

Platinum: 1:15.00

(Just to note, those crates and Time Trail times are made up to make it sound more like a Crash Bandicoot game. If this were real, those numbers would be different.)

Magmadons To Save: 5

Helping Partner: Sonic

Badniks: Rexon: Robo dinos? What will they think of next? A park to house them? Spiker: It's a spike carrying robot, what more do you want? Sol: Spinning wheels of FIRE! Wave Lab Assistant Pawns: They hide in the swamps, waiting to pounce on Crash and the gang. Thanks to getting a Pawn head, they should be easier to identify thanks to their eyes.

Beasts: Bandifish: Crash's prehistoric ancestor. *SPIN SPIN*

Mutants: Magmadons: Turtle + lava rock hybrids that love to bath in lava.

(Starts headbanging!)

Welcome to the Prehistoric Earth. I hope you don't mind getting your feet wet, since there are feet high swamps everywhere. This first level is here to introduce you to Crash's moves. from his spins (and his Death Tornado), to his Super Belly Flop, his Double Jumping, and even his Wampazooka (with special appearance of Crash's tiptoe and dash power). And you also get an introductions to all the crates you'll see. All the basics in a lovely tutorial that is just a regular level. All the Crystals hide in plain sight around 3/4 in of every level (so I won't keep mentioning it). (And unless stated of a second gem around, there is usually only one for breaking all the crates.)

*About midway through the level, Sonic and Crash encounter and 3 Aku-Aku crates on top of each other.*

Crash whimpers.

Sonic: "What's wrong?"

Crash: "No Aku-Aku to help me!"

Sonic: "Is that bad?"

*Crash whispers in Sonic's ear, telling him that Aku-Aku usually protects him from damage, with invincibility with 3.*

Sonic: "So he protects you. Well, you do look pretty trustworthy. Want these?" *He shows Crash the Chaos Emeralds.*

Crash: "Oh?"

Sonic: "Take them, they'll keep you safe if you collect enough rings."

Crash: "These things?" *He shows the rings he found so far in the level.*

Sonic: "Yep. Here, let me show you." *He takes the rings and uses them to go Super Sonic. A wall of 16 Nitros are ahead and Sonic runs into them and the nearby TNT, making them blow up and leaving Sonic unhurt. He returns to his regular state.*

Crash: "Hooray!" *He smiles his toothy grin.*

Sonic: "Here, take them, Crash."

*Crash takes them and easily goes Super, gaining a yellow aura. His hair turns yellow as well and regains his old mohawk.* "Yahoo!" *He runs off, letting the player finish the level in Crash's super state.*

Achievement Unlocked: Getting Your Shoes Wet

Level 2: Wading Dino

Crates: 95

Time Trial

Sapphire: 1:50.00

Gold: 1:35.00

Platinum: 1:20.00

Magmadons To Save: 5

Helping Partner: Spyro

Badniks: (Except for any new ones I note, all badniks appear in all levels of a Terrarium) Dino Riding Lab Assistant Pawns: They have tamed some baby T-Rexes of their own, albeit the dinos are metal too. Charging the dino and smashing the Pawn will defeat them.

The main feature for this level is that Crash is able to ride his old Baby T-Rex from Warped. He grants Crash an extra hit point and lets Crash jump even higher (Spyro flies for any jumps that are too high.). This level is another walk through the swamps. Usually around the halfway point of the levels, there is a platform that you can jump on to go to a BONUS area, filled with crates and Wampa fruit. It's a great way to earn lives, too.

Achievement Unlocked: Baby T, The Cutest Dino Around

Level 3: Magmadon Magma Runs

*Dingodile appears.*

Dingodile: "G'day, mates. Dingodile's the name. Uka-Uka, Cortex, and Eggman want me to collect those Crystals you're collecting from the Prehistoric. You better give me the goods, and shove off, before I roast yas!"

Crates: 60

Time Trial

Sapphire: 1:40.00

Gold: 1:30.00

Platinum: 1:20.00

Magmadons To Save: 5

Helping Partner: Knuckles

This level has Crash and Knuckles riding Magmadons across lave floes. These mutants that are scattered across the levels and Terrariums are working for Cortex, but if you can break their headsets, they are more than willing to help you. They look big and strong, and they are, but they are big softies that are quite gentle. Cortex's Evolvo-ray is what has made them susceptible to the noise generated by the headsets, but Crash and the others slapping some sense in them helps save them. These mutants can take much more of a beating, having their own health bar and can be easily healed from the Wampa fruit laying around.

Knuckles noticed one of the Magmadons. "Hey, Crash? I know that they do have those headsets that are meant to make them crazy, but why are we helping them? Aren't they dangerous?"

Crash: "Mutants aren't mean! Nor dangerous" *Crash sounds like he is a little offended at the question.*

Knuckles realizes his mistake. "Wait, you're a mutant yourself? I'm sorry, I didn't know..." *Knuckles trails off, a little angry that he made such a mistake.*

Crash shows a smile. "It's okay! You didn't know." *He whispers something to Knuckles.*

Knuckles : "Oh! They are only dangerous and evil thanks to Cortex's evolving."

Crash: "Uh-huh! I help them so they can live their own lives!"

Knuckles: "Maybe you should tell the others that too so they can help."

Crash: "I will!"

Achievement Unlocked: Magmadons, The Hottest Turtles Around

Level 4: Volcanic Vents

Magmadons To Save: 5

Helping Partner: Tails

Badniks: Fireworm: So fire, much worm.

Well, I got some good news and bad news. Good news is that there is no more swamps underneath you, the bad news is that now you have to climb a volcano. At least it is somewhat dormant, so this no raining of rocks from the sky, but there are some lava flows here and there. And here is where you can get your first taste of a Death Route (Complete with proper music). There's a checkpoint right next to it so you can try as much as your lives allow. Death Routes are usually harder sections of a level, with more traps and Nitros and danger. But this one shouldn't be too hard. It will take you through the center of the volcano, with platforms strewn all across. Should you be able to avoid getting singed, another gem and a quick walk to the exit is your reward. Or you could kill yourself after collecting the gem and continue normally around the volcano. Your choice. Either way, your exit is on the other side of the volcano.

Achievement Unlocked: Feeling the Earth Move

Level 5: Pterodactyl Pterror

Crates: 93

Time Trial

Sapphire: 1:40.00

Gold: 1:30.00

Platinum: 1:20.00

Magmadons To Save: 5

Helping Partner: Cynder

Beasts: Pterodactyls: *SCREECH!*

No prehistoric visit would be complete without a visit of flying dinos, aka Pterodactyls. You're back in the swamps again, but it isn't all that bad. Those birds can easily be dealt with by spinning them away. Nothing much to note here, just avoid being hurt by the beasts and badniks and you'll be fine.

Achievement Unlocked: Not Altering the Course of History

-----

*After returning to the Space Egg / Death Head, the buttons disappear and Crash and the others are lead to the center of the Terrarium. There, they find Dingodile, readying his flamethrower.*

Boss: Dingodile

"Mmm! Deep fried bandicoot and deep fried blue hedgehog sound mighty delicious right now."

(Break out the guitar, we're gonna rock out!)

Dingodile makes a lovely first boss, don't you think? Now, it's not a good idea to go straight into him, lest you want to get burned, rather you should run away and collect the rings scattered about to keep your health (Bosses use rings, since Aku-Aku isn't around to save you, and it makes sense with Sonic here). Now the normal way is to just wait until Dingodile gets tired and drops his flamethrower, letting you hit him. Afterwards, you'd have to run away until he gets tired again. OR, if you really want to kick Dingodile's ass, you can find 50 rings around the place and go Super, and just keep running into him. Either way, about 8 hits will do it.

Achievement Unlocked: No Singed Bandicoot Butt.

*After the 8th hit...*

Dingodile: "Gah! Youse are the worst mates ever! But let's see how tough you are over ICE in the Ice Ages."

*Dingodile gets up and runs off, deactivating the force field and letting you move on to the next Terrarium. Crash and the others give chase...*

Next Time: Try not to become Crash cubes in the Ice Age Terrarium.
