HI HELLO! It’s time for me to open commissions because I, like many artists all over the world forever, Need Money. Image description under the cut!  
Start I.D.
[An art commissions post titled "Squids Commission Prices" at the top on a light orange background. It contains five tables, three on the top half of the post and two on the bottom. On the left of the first table for each half says "Prices". Each table has an image above it as an example of the type of artwork. The first table is labelled "Icon", and has an image of a symmetrical Jackalope with deer antlers and ram horns done in pixel art with solid colors. The table has two rows with one column each. The first row is titled "Base" with its column being "$20". The second row is "BG" with "+$5".
The second table is labelled "Sketch", with five rows and one column each. In order from first row and column to last, it says "Base $25", "Color +$10", "Shading +$10", "+Chars +$15", and "Full Body $35". Above this table is a colored sketch of three teenagers, two of which are fursonas, hugging and overlapping a partially colored sketch of a woman.
The third table is "Line art", with five rows and one column each. In order from first row and column to last, it says "Base $35", "Color +$10", "Shading +$10", "+Chars +$15", and "Full Body $50". Above this table is two separate drawings of animal heads, one maned wolf and antelope hybrid and the other of a cat, in clean line art. There is a box that reads "Separate base price" that is pointing to the rows labelled "Full Body". Next to these tables is a text box that reads "There isn't really a difference between line art with color/shading and a Simple Piece". The text box has a pink cyclops cat fursona drawn on top of it waving at the columns.
On the bottom half of the post, the first table is labelled "Simple Piece", with four rows and one column each. The second row is empty. In descending order, it reads as "Base $45", "+Chars +$25", and "Full Body $60". There are two images above it, one of the colored version of the hybrid, now purple, and the other a chest up of a brown bear with cat ear gamer headphones on, with clean line art and solid colors.
The second table is labelled "Detailed Piece", with four rows and one column each. The second row is empty. In descending order, it reads "Base $100", "+Chars +$30", and "Full Body $150". There are two images above the table. One is a detailed portrait of a human man, and the second is a detailed painting of three figures, all furries, one a gazelle child being held by half of a leopard woman, the other half of the leopard woman is a skeleton embracing a bleeding adult gazelle and leopard hybrid. Both images are drawn in a very detailed paint style.
Next to the two tables is a light blue text box that reads "I'll draw almost anything, just ask. Mech/Heavy Armor at your own risk. Simple backgrounds only. Animal Ear Edits are $5-8 btw. Put cat ears on your Anime Icon"
On the bottom of the image is a light blue text box titled "Contact Info". It reads "Art Tumblr: calamariumart.tumblr.com", "squidcalamarium.tumblr.com", and "Email: [email protected]". On the top of this textbox is the same pink cyclops cat, his full body drawn sitting on the box. He’s smiling with his eye closed, and gesturing to the prices with a paw.] End I.D.

as much as i love splatoon lore. you all know i love splatoon lore. as much as i love splatoon lore i am not afraid to admit that a lot of the impact is lost via the storytelling methods.
For example, the Sunken Scrolls. a HUGE part of the lore is from here. and a lot of impact is lost simply because these scrolls don't allow for any further exploration. At most you'll get a few scroll pages (a paragraph for each page) on a topic. Like the fact that Judd was from the human time and was cryogenically frozen.
If they wanted to explore that concept, it could be devastating. He had an owner, a human who loved him very much. A human who loved his cat so much that, when faced with the end of the world and the resources to only save one person, he elected to save his cat. But instead of a big story with drama and heartache, we get like 3 paragraphs on it, and then... nothing.
Humanity's downfall is another big devastating lore beat, obviously, and to its credit it does have somewhat of a focus in Splatoon 3, via the Alterna Logs! Instead of a picture of a human skeleton with a Wii U nearby (a canon sunken scroll btw), we have multiple mini stories on how the survived, and how they died. The Alterna Logs are GREAT, and in my mind they're impactful! Even the fact that you can only unlock them a few sentences at a time via completing missions didn't stall it too much, as the logs tell a whole story rather than a tiny lore dump.
But it's.. not always treated that way. There's the previously mentioned drawing of a human skeleton with a Wii U right next to it (a gamer to the end...) and characters regularly mention that humans are dead without a care. Which, y'know, makes sense. Humans are long extinct, and the fish have no attachment to them. But it does negate a lot of the meaning.
Then there's cases where the drear is hidden away within mere implications, like with OE's "hundreds of dead test subjects" beat. While it's fun to sit there and have it slowly dawn on you that many test subjects likely did get blended up, it really messes with the impact of it.
My final point here is the areas of the lore left unexplored. The biggest instance of this, imo, is the Octarian society, which we... know next to nothing about. We know they live underground. We know they are in the middle of a power crisis. We know that they can be inspired by Calamari Inkantation to leave. But what about their daily lives? What is it like deep down in Octo Valley? What is it like to live in the middle of a power crisis like that, and what is it like under Octavio's rule? This could be such an interesting perspective, but we're left with next to nothing. A few Sunken Scrolls, and a few bits of poetry from Agent 8, but after that...
Like I said, I love Splatoon lore, truly. It's fun and it's dark and it's crazy. But a lot of its impact, its meaning, its passion, is left with less simply due to the way its told.
As weird as it might be to suggest, I kinda hope we get a Splatoon spinoff that's not a multiplayer shooter, something that can properly explore the lore and let people process just how devastating it really is. It's one thing to say all of humanity went extinct, and it's another thing to really feel the impact of that.
I know the developers have passion for the world they made. That's apparent with just how much lore we have in general- if they didn't care about the world of Splatoon, we wouldn't even have an explanation for why Inklings are humanoid. Or, well, for the vast majority of things in the game. No one really needs to know that microbes in the air are what make the ink disappear after games, but we have that information because the developers love what they made.
I just hope that we eventually reach a point where this can be properly explored.

Some Life Series interpretation lore (Some people call them headcanons... BUT NOT I!)
Basically a list of what I'm going to draw everyone as + some disjointed thoughts about how the biology/geology/magic works because I am an autistic little FREAK
(Okay to rb, just not putting this in the main tag because I'm embarrassed.)
Species list (● = More Human looking - ■ = More Furry looking)
Grian - ● Wither Skeleton + Vulture (Vanilla + Semi-Vanilla) (^ Resembles a turkey vulture specifically, unadded mob) Scar - ■ Cat (Vanilla) (^ Specifically a Jellie Cat) Mumbo - ● Human/Player (Vanilla) (^ Worlds most normalcore dude ♡) Jimmy - ● Tiny Bird (Twilight Forest) (^ Gold Finch Variety) Joel - ■ Hedge Spider (Twilight Forest) (^ Spider Centaur btw) Scott - ● Guardian (Vanilla) (^ Head 'crystals' are guardian thorns) Impulse - ● Minotaur (Twilight Forest) (^ Long Horn Cow, Pansy Moobloom) Skizzle - ● Valkyrie (Aether) (^ Wings are small and unusable) Tango - ● Blaze (Vanilla) (^ Has blaze rods circling his head) Etho - ■ Leucistic Fox (Vanilla) (^ Has Dark Gray/Light Brown markings, 'Domesticated' Fox) Bdubs - ■ Glare (Semi-Vanilla) (^Acts akin to skulk, but with docile moss, Unadded mob) Cleo - ● Zombie (Vanilla) (^ Doesn't burn in daylight due to mutation) Martyn - ● Creeper + Cat (Vanilla) (^ Makes Creeper noises but cannot explode) Ren - ■ Wolf (Vanilla) (^ I am implementing "More Mob Varients" ♡) Lizzie - ■ Aerbunny (Aether) (^ She rides on Joel's shoulders, also ears blend into hair) BigB - ● Human/Player (Vanilla) (^ He's just some guy ♡) GeminiTay - ● Deer + Skeleton (Twilight Forest + Vanilla) (^ Themes of chronic wasting disease, has a skeletal arm) Pearl - ● Boar (Twilight Forest) (^ Think about it, everyone's like "oh a passive mob i don't gotta worry-" and then THEY DIE AND DIE AND DIEEEEEE)
In my interpretation there's more dimensions than just The End and Nether. There's also the Twilight Forest and The Aether because those two mods register as Vanilla+ in my mind. (Also stuff like Glares, Mooblooms, Copper Constructs, etc. are here too because I'm a salty jackass and this is MY silly thing ♡)
People in this are more or less furry-esque due to exposure to magic. Scar lived in a more magical environment than Martyn, so he's more cat-like instead of more humanoid.
"Undeads" are just their own thing and not actually dead! They have light sensitivity to the point of burning/melting due to the sun leeching their magical energy. Skeletons are very thin naturally and have a high metabolism and very good eyesight. Their eyes are sunken and black but their pupils reflect lots of light like a cat's would. Zombies are slower and have a symbiotic relationship with a bacteria that helps them survive on less food but makes them smell kinda gross. Wither skeletons are similar to normal skeletons but are much faster, taller, and more muscular. Though, their bones are much more brittle.
Planets/Dimensions Radiate magic from within themselves, and Stars burn away their own magic and neutralize it with their light. (Hence why undeads burn in sunlight) The farther you go underground the more magical the lifeforms are. The Nether and Twilight Forest are both underground dimensions due to their planets being closer to their stars. The End is a gas giant with magic infused islands of rock that float naturally, though it is close to its star it's atmosphere is so dense that it isn't effected very much. Btw the Nether is Venus. I know this in my heart ♡ (the other three are just random high-magic planets that linked to The Overworld) The Aether is also a gas giant but is more linked to The Overworld's magic, thus when you fall into the core you wind up in The Overworld's atmosphere. Bedrock is infused with so much magic that it isn't breakable by mortal lifeforms.
Humans do exist! Btw! I know I only have two but listen... I'm a furry. Humans generally are more effected by magic than anything else, hence why there are so many human-like people in my interpretation.
That's all I have for now lol, enjoy my ramble. ♡

Okay. alright, I needed a separate post to go in detail, because now I'm pumped! BTW I only quickly looked up the bijuus’ references to have some guidance, so they might not be all exact, I also went a bit by their appearaces alone.
Unfortunately I can’t fit the number of tails, but this is a great excuse for me to ramble about these lovely myths to anyone interested.
Ichibi Shukaku, the shapeshifting tanuki - I might be probably forgeting some, but I decided to go with an animal I like. It kinda matches how bloodthirsty Shukaku was in the begining, but it’s a bird instead. Matinta Pereira is a little owl (sometimes mistaken or also described as a potoo) that brings the news of death. Sometimes it takes the shape of a witch, other times is an old man seeking petty regenge. Another nice detail: since both tanukis and kitsunes are somewhat tricksters, the Matinta is actually sometimes related to the creature I chose for Kyuubi too.
Nibi Matatabi, the cat ghost - The obvious here would be to go with the Alma-de-gato (Cat soul) which is literally a shadow or spectral cat that appears to haunt children who misbehave, silently staring into their souls with (literal) burning eyes. Totally fits and I’d be happy with it. BUT if we take what looks the most like the beast in the series and just overall vibe, I’d have to go with Boitatá. Nothing to do with cats, just a giant fire snake with its body covered in eyes. This myth is actually closely related to the will-o'-wisp so many times the fire is made blue
Tumblr media
Anon says “Boitatá would make a fucking awesome bijuu let’s be honest” and that is true! Boitatá IS one of my favorite myths for a reason! Not only it looks badass the legend says the snake protects fields and forests from anyone trying to set illegal fires by blinding them, or driving them into madness or just straight up killing them.
Sanbi Isobu, the sea demon - Here I picked the Ipupiará who’s basically another sea demon, though more humanoid, kind of resembling a mermaid, but more of a walrus shaped one. There are multiple stories and creatures similar to this one, but I like the older and more murderous version for this. Option TWO is another one of my favorites (another giant snake, of course it’s another snake): Boiúna, the black snake. A huge, river long, pitch black snake with flame red eyes, that just scares anyone living by the rivers by sinking ships or straight up swallowing them. Neither of these has any moral or motivation, they’re just beasts.
Yonbi Son Goku, the monkey king - For this one I went with the idea of an “Imposing monkey-like creature” and got: Mapinguari, this huge, smelly, man devouring monster. These monsters, mostly known in the amazon region, easily stand at over 2 meters tall, sometimes depicted with a single eye in the forehead and with a huge mouth full of razor sharp teeth stretching all the way to the bellybutton. They attract the prey by screaming like desperate humans and deceiving people to go help. To have this one as a source of power is nice, but wouldn’t be nearly as respectable as the original.
Gobi Kokuou, Hanging horse head and ghost whale - Okay so a horse. that’s easy: Mula sem cabeça, literally a Headless horse, with fire coming out of its neck. This one is widely known in the country so it has many MANY variations, but the shape is what matters here, so ‘only head horse’ for ‘no head horse’. Not sure how to fit the whale ghost part :(
Rokubi Saiken, the shellfish ogre - Alamoa! I’ve been told not many people know about this one?? But searching for this shellfish ogre, the wiki description fits quite perfectly with the Alamoa. She is a storm (thunder? lightning?) ghost, who appears on stormy nights dancing naked in the beaches of Fernando de Noronha. She is very pale and with near white blonde hair and attracts fishermen with her beauty and treasures, only to trap them and turn into an skeleton before killing them.
Nanabi Choumei, a rhinoceros beetle - This one was surprisingly hard, but let’s go with a simple one: Minhocão (literally big worm). Huge worm like creature living in rivers or underground that also goes around sinking ships. I would also take the ‘lucky seven’ joke and turn it around by using Caapora (out of the numerous names, this is the one I’m most familiar with), who is said to bring bad luck! Caapora can be an angry little girl, a creature with red skin and hair or even a cyclops, they ride a boar (queixada) and cause depression and bad luck to whoever meets them.
Hachibi Gyuki, the cow demon - Immediate choice: Boi Bumbá (with many name variations). It’s an annual performance/celebration telling the story of death and ressucitation of an ox. There’s a lot of dance and colorful outfits involved so it makes for a nice visual for a magical beast. BUT I also remembered a more regional one called Boi Vaquim: a winged bull with golden horns and diamonds for eyes that spits fire. How badass is that?
Fun fact: ‘boi’ is the actual portuguese word for bull/ox, but in native tupí language ‘boi’ stands for snake so we have the snakes boitatá and boiúna.
Kyuubi Kurama, the kitsune - Absolutely NOTHING to do with foxes, but I’m going to pick Saci! Simply for the trickster nature. Sacis are probably the most famous supernatural creature in brazilian mythology. They vary in shape (can be human or have goat horns and beard or bird foot), size (from tiny little fairies living in flowers to 2m tall with scales and claws), power (can create small tornadoes, grant wishes, spoil food), nature (they go from harmless and inconvenient pranks to kidnapping children and beating up animals to death), but the base look is of a pitch black humanoid creature - most times a black boy - with a single leg and red pointy hat. Option two for visuals: Maned wolf.

Yall, just so you know this is anonymous, so I can't see who would vote no.
Also
Hi! I'm Craven!
I'm a wanna be artist with absolute crushed self esteem that desperately needs validation to get self worth and on the other hand doesn't believe that people's compliments are valid!
So basically= A self made self esteem issue!
I jump from hobby to hobby like a whore, making music, crotchet, animation, drawing, learning japanese (and failing miserably 😊), gave up on learning danish, learning guitar and keyboard, I used to make iron pellet art (hard to make with shaky ass hands)
Tumblr media
Das me btw! In all my glory! (Wet socks in the sand, God fears me)
Tumblr media
(me in school and my new jacket, old pic, Mochi laughed a lot :> )
Boring facts=
I'm 20 and a mess cuz since 2015 I've been simping over undertale like a Maniac (it's been better these days, but tumblr temporarily pushed me back into the obsession)
I'm a cat/ dog fanatic, but always crows before hoes
My favorite colors are purple, red, blue and black
I'm definitely demisexual polyamourous, but pan or polyromantic? I dunno lol.
Also genderfluid (altho i personally never really know what gender I feel like in the moment)
I have an absolute hopeless love for my aro/ace best friend who is called Mochi and she is the best and literally only real (real life) friend I ever had
Totally not my dumb brain starved for human connection and then immediately clinging to whoever is being a decent person to me
Luckily she is also a bomb person and kind so she doesn't use me like my other friendships XD
How did Red Mass start?
To get an idea of what my AU is, you gotta know how my dumb brain thought of it.
2015. I was absolutely sucked into Undertale after watching a german YouTuber play it, and then I started watching a certain Irish fella play it as well.
I started watching comic dubs of all the Au's that people made, faning out and just binged watched everything relating to it.
Then my family and I had vacation.
A trip to Rome (it was hot and awful, never again. Fucking 40°C celsius are you kidding me?)
It was a 15 hour trip (with bathroom/ smoker breaks)
And i layed in the back of the car, daydreaming about all those Au's.
It was awesome and cool and I slowly started to MAYBE get pandora syndrome of where I desperately wanted to be a part of those stories (I know. Cringe)
It got so bad that I maaaaybe cried in bed every night hoping I'd just wake up in the stories (but my life sucks so that also played a role)
So on that car ride, Luna lovania (god the cringe hurts me badly) was born.
A skeleton oc at first, later being an oc that is a fusion of Frisk and sans (which still is a part of Red Mass)
I daydreamed 15 hours + 15 hours back about Red Mass, it was such bliss (and even while we were in Rome)
And since that point, I have kept daydreaming every day for 8 years, and it became a big part of my life (as ridiculous as this sounds)
I just realized I might be insane.
Oh well
I will make a specific Red Mass post, explaining the story a bit and character introduction ((but not revealing too many spoilers since I kinda wanna make it into a thing))
I hope you guys mean it if you say you're interested :)

actually,your url just reminded me of the boneHILL and my quest to figure out what the fuck it's actually made of. the books say it's prey bones but like: leopardstar,tigerstar and blackstar can all comfortably sit on it,that's a fuck ton of prey bones. as a kid i just fully assumed it was actually a mix of cat bones and the bones of larger animals like deer. and also,how the fuck did tigerstar MANAGE to get enough bones to make a full mountain of them, like logistically.
So you sent me on a goddamn goose chase trying to calculate just exactly how much prey a clan would need, vs how much prey they could actually catch if they were trying to construct a bonehill
Logistically speaking there's no way Tigerstar could have cleaned those bones fast enough to use them for construction purposes. Plus, cats don't naturally pick their meals clean- if they're eating a small animal, they would crunch right through several bones. But let's make some estimates, assuming they're butchering their meat perfectly
First we'll start off with how much prey a clan needs to begin with. Let's use mice as a general metric.
I found this chart breaking down the nutritional value of rodent prey. The first result on DuckDuckGo will tell you a mouse is 30 calories and that's absurdly, hilariously wrong; a mouse is 5.25 calories per gram. A cat needs 110 calories on average a day, so an average 20 gram mouse is enough to feed a single cat. 15 clan cats per clan in TPB on average, times two to make TigerClan, that's 30 cats, 30 mice a day, 900 mice a month.
This is assuming, btw, that warriors hunt a lot less mice than the average feral cat. Irl cats kill just for sport, and can take an average of 8 mice a day (often, these aren't even completely eaten). These numbers would be higher if Tigerstar was telling them to just kill prey for vanity purposes.
So we could actually calculate this based on active hunters instead. In that case, 8 - 10 cats are usually active warriors, we're not counting queens, elders, medcat, so let's assume 8 hunters.
9 x 8 = 72 entire mice a day. This is already insane, but hit that x 30 for the month, you're looking at 2,160 dead mice, and also a pretty devastated ecosystem. This absolutely violates the rule in the code to not waste prey, and only for a construction project, but ok, Tigerstar doesn't care about the code.
Would that actually be enough bones to cover the hill?
A mouse is about 20 grams on average. I do not know how much a mouse skeleton weighs, but a human skeleton is about 20% of your weight so you're just gonna have to bear with me because my NSA agent already thinks I want to eat mice. 2 grams of bones.
Lower estimate: 2g x 900 = about 4 pounds. That's a pile, not a hill.
Higher estimate: 2g x 2,160 = 9 1/2 pounds. That is a bigger pile, but still not a hill.
I think the most realistic way he could build the bonehill would be to use the high stone as a base or construct a new one of mudbricks, and then create a "bone facade" on the outside. That's doable.
Other types of prey?
I didn't even bother with calculating other types of prey because RiverClan is already at an obvious disadvantage. They hunt fish. Fish bones are extremely thin, they would be GARBAGE for building with, not even mentioning the horrific reek they'd be letting out.
ShadowClan would be pulling all the weight, and forcing RiverClan cats to only hunt mice, water voles, etc, reducing their overall yield
But what about big prey? Ok-- what sorts of big prey can they actually hunt? We only know of two possibilities; sheep and deer. RiverClan is already at a disadvantage here, because they don't hunt terrestrial prey. What about ShadowClan? Probably also at a disadvantage here, as hunters in marshland. We have also never seen them take down an animal so large.
Scavenging, perhaps? They could find deer bones... dog bones... sheep bones maybe.
In conclusion
Logistically there's no way for Tigerstar to have produced enough bones to make a solid hill that three cats can perch on, however, it would be possible to cover a mud facade in bones.
In order to do that, Tigerstar had to be pushing his warriors to break the code and abuse the land they were hunting on, while forcing RiverClan to hunt unsuitable prey, and force his warriors to eat very carefully as to not break any prey bones that need to be used for building.
It may have been helpful for Tigerstar to include the bones of large animals such as sheep and deer from scavenging, or to kill large predatory animals such as foxes and badgers.
All of that said, it's ok because the bonehill was very cool and that's actually the only reason WC needs to do anything, imo.

i finished my evil playthrough in bg3 and have 252 hours on record so i decided to take a break and play divinity original sin 2 for the first time and it's kinda funny seeing the origins of a lot of mechanics from bg3. i'd say so far that the normal difficulty in dos2 is generally easier than balanced in bg3 (which is a hot take, i know, but hear me out). maybe it's just that i got used to bg3 and turn based mechanics but i found myself very overpowered for lvl 2 compared to bg3 where in my first playthrough i couldn't kill a few scuttling brains without dying. in dos2 by lvl2 i was taking on 3-4 human characters at once and winning by a Lot. i'm assuming the game picks up though, i did hear it's harder than bg3 so maybe i just haven't seen that yet. but the small things are endearing too, like the fact that some icons for things were subsequently used in bg3 like the trap disarm toolkit, the fact that they used the same barter system, the fact that the game itself works the same exact way aside from combat (which is ever so slightly different). the controls are the same, the hotkeys are (mostly) the same by default, you have the same mechanics like sneaking but they do this hysterical thing where you transform into a boulder or bush when sneaking and i love how silly that is So Much. but yeah, a lot of things are the same in bg3, but a lot of things are much improved in bg3. bg3 has more detailed options for combat (i'm only comparing the first few hours of gameplay btw, i have no idea what late game dos2 is like) and more options in general. i found myself missing the ability to jump or disengage or the action/bonus action/movement being separate and not all ruled by one stamina currency like they are in dos2, although obviously they're not going to be the same since dos2 is its own thing (larian homebrew) and not based on dnd. some stuff i found needlessly punishing but more in a roleplay sense than gameplay wise, like the fact that a guard can permakill your cat friend out of nowhere and you can't do anything but reload if you want to keep it alive. overall i love how detailed the dialogue is, they clearly took an already amazing system and only made it better in bg3. oh yeah and the skeleton dude fane is an instant hit with me, he reminds me of astarion in that he's a bit of a bitch and really whiny but i love characters like that. if he had animations to go with his dialogue he'd be unstoppable. anyway yeah that's my initial thoughts about dos2 lol i really enjoy it so far!

5 i'll befriend you in reverse, why the hell is scar stuck in the woods? despite being a powerful fae, he can't leave the enchanted woods, they're like a physical part of himself that has its own sentience and desires. essentially, a deal he made when he was young turned sour, and now the forest follows him everywhere. the woods want scar to live as long as possible, because he's what keeps the woods alive.
6 so soon enough, you'll find you never knew me at all this fic could be seen as a companion to another i wrote, where grian's the second ever Watcher to be "born" and not "chosen". the "void" scar sees in grian? it's a Watcher-side effect.
7 a million dreams for the world we're gonna make, again lmao. this was my first ever HC fic, and i sometimes find myself thinking about that lonely citadel grian's floating on in the middle of the void, akin to a giant bird cage for him to grow up in, alone.
8 It's Never Enough by we are the dirt, i'm really tired rn but i'd be happy to go into why this BANGS if you'd like tmmr
16 idk if you can tell, but i am in fact an enjoyer of actor au!s. give me more, actually.
17 this is a fic i've been TRYING to write but chapter 2 eludes me still: grian's an avian in a world that fears and despises hybrids, he grew up raised by vexes because the rest of his nestmates and mother were slaughtered before he was born, he grows up causing minor problems for human villages to pass the time until he's eventually caught by a trapper, scar. here's chapter one
scar's a vex hybrid himself, but hides it in order to scam his way through life. grian, trapped, is now at the mercy of a mad scientist who, in his desire to quell society's fear of hybrids, wants to dissect him. grian blackmails scar into helping him stay alive and tries to escape, eventually the two finding common ground.
oh, also mumbo's the mad scientist. he makes dioramas of mobs and decorates his lab with them for fun.
23 honestly, a proper superhero au. at least a one shot, but specifically for the romantic tension.
26 no dialogue, easy. honestly i kinda wanna write one with no dialogue just as a challenge.
29 i made a couple of playlists for my actor au, here's some notable songs from grian's and scars':
grian: Don't Assume What You Don't Know by Grace VanderWaal jealousy, jealousy by Olivia Rodrigo You Stupid Bitch by girl in red
scar: SCOOP by Lil Nas X feat. Doja Cat Why'd You Only Call Me When You're High by Arctic Monkeys Boyfriend by Dove Cameron
(again, very sleep, happy to go into more detail later)
37 skeleton is the best fucking fic i've ever written and i will forever stand by that. yes it's short. yes it's a one-shot. please don't let that deter you, it's the best scar characterization i've ever done in my life. read it. please.
47 though i've closed my eyes, i know who you pretend i am is a pair of steel-toed boots. once perfectly shined and polished, a seemingly important royal crest stamped on the outer skin of the tongue, but the silver has seen better days, worn down from exposure to the elements. still, they are well loved, the original, now somewhat ratty laces tied in double knots, a bow on each shoe still low enough to threaten tripping. these shoes are still in continual use, despite being told a fancier pair would be a smarter choice. no, he quite liked these ones, thank you very much.
49 i'm meant to be working on chapter 19 of my actor au, butttt i've not started so have some bullshit i just came up with instead:
The pair had set up rules for a good reason.
"You're staring again."
One of them had a inclination towards a poor memory.
"Is that a crime?"
Grian could only hope Scar would try and remember.
"It's about to be."
50, answering 25 as a cheeky bonus: https://www.onelook.com/ is a GODSEND. the thesaurus page? heavenly.

Captainsona (ISWM)
I kinda tried to keep him a lil basic so I could add more on in the future if need be but uh I always fail at that, my need to create a sona I know I’ll be happy with in the long run outweighs my need to leave a bit of a blank slate so I could adjust to the story but ANYWAYS uh here he is!
...At this point you can uh REALLY tell I don’t like making human sonas or ocs much, bc I didn’t wanna make him human at all
| Real Name: Xokiniuth (nobody knows his real name and uh let’s keep it that way shall we?)
| Chosen Name: Chase (imma just give him my name lmao)
| Nickname: Sometimes goes by Cryptid for some reason
| Gender: Trans FtM (He/Him)
| Sexuality: Pansexual
| Age: [REDACTED]
| Height: 5’5”
| Species/Race: Demon
| Occupation: Captain of the Invincible II
| Eye Color: (not that you’ll see these two things BUT just bc i like to be descriptive) His eye color is Gunmetal Blue, turns fully black when angered
| Hair Color: Dark Brown (Spiky Quiff, also he dyed it a dark purple on top)
| Body Type: Doesn’t matter what form he’s in for this one, he’s overall pretty chubby
|
| Appearance: Okay before I get to the descriptive appearance, you’ll most likely NEVER EVER see him without the spacesuit and helmet on- he gets very defensive when asked about it but never explains why he doesn’t wanna take the outfit off but I’ll get to that in a bit, he’s got light purple skin, his fingers, hands, and a bit down his wrists are pitch black, it almost looks like clouds of pure darkness surrounding those areas
|
The space suit in question on his body is a black one, his entire outfit is black except for his gloves, boots, and the helmet which are dark purple- the suit has a bunch of various patches, one is the trans flag and the other is the pan flag, another few I can name off are a skull hand extending a middle finger, one is of two skeletons kissing in a coffin that says ‘Love wins’ at the bottom, one patch says ‘I’d fuck an alien’ ITS A JOKE PATCH- and then finally he has a red anatomically correct heart patch that has a knife through it with blood on the tip and it says ‘Horror Movies’ in fancy cursive writing, the rest of the patches- eh if anyone ever drew my lad here, you could slap whatever ya want on him, because he’d wear the edgiest or stupidest fucking patches i swear, he’d wear one that just had an ass on it that SAID just the word ‘Ass’
|
He has pointed ears, razor sharp teeth, black horns that point and curve upwards with dark purple tips, of course he has black claws (he painted his middle claws a dark purple to match his aesthetic lmao), his pupils are slit btw I forgot to mention that (yes, they would do the thing cat’s do when excited), he has a forked tongue bc of course he does, and finally he’s got a long black tail with purple fluff at the tip of it (the tip of his tail is fluffy and soft basically) he wears dark purple gauges on his ears, he has a circle beard bc when it comes to sonas that I make or a lotta OCs in general, usually they have a beard lmao.
|
He has top surgery scars as well, that’s the only scarring on him pretty much- I’m going to try not to project ENTIRELY onto this dude lmao, I’ll spare him the trauma …Well, for now anyways- ahem- ANYWAYS- yeah that’s uh p much all for appearance.
|
| Personality: I don’t wanna waste too much time so I’ll try to keep it basic for now, Xo is a little shit who loves to cause trouble, loves to cause problems, he seems to be pretty much carefree, confident and cool, he does seem to get too cocky for his own good from time to time, Xo does whatever he wants WHEN he wants, he might as well after all he’s got ALL the time in the world now doesn’t he? Hahaha- Xo might seem carefree but deep down he cares, he cares a LOT actually, he cares and worries and fears way more than he should …About a lot of things but if I listed them we’d be here all day, the one thing I’ll list him worrying and fearing about is being found out…
|
Xo has a lot of anxieties deep down and that right there is one of the BIG ones, him being found out, aka someone seeing that he’s not actually a human… He worries how the crew, how his friends, how they’d all react… After all, Xo knows how most humans feel about demons, it’s why he gets so defensive and hostile about taking off the suit and helmet, under NO circumstances is the captain’s suit and or helmet to be removed, no MATTER what the situation may be- That’s literally a rule he made up, Xo will not allow anyone to remove his attire and that’s final. Xo might be a little shit and try to put up as many walls and fronts as he can but there’s always that fear of being found out looming over his head…
|
He’s very feral, constantly causing a ruckus and problems, loves to jump out of the airlock for some reason multiple times, VERY MUCH loves fixing it from the outside as well, and also finds it funny to toss Mark around. If I could describe Xok with a meme it’d just be the ‘Hey how y’all- *snarling and growling* AHHH!!! GET YO FUCKIN DOG BITCH- it dont bite YES IT DO GET-’ that one
|
| Side Facts: Xok gets along with a lot of the crew it seems, not so much with Celci but he still respects Cel for sure… He respects them all! I mean they are his friends even if he can be an annoying shithead… I’ll go ahead and say the characters Xo would get along with the MOST would be Burt, Chica, Gunther especially (fuck yeah! Let’s blow some shit the fuck u p!), Mark but only when the ‘HELL YEAH’ choice comes into play more specifically, seems to ESPECIALLY love Wug and Bandit, borderline has a crush on those two but shh-
|
Xok doesn’t know a LOT about humans, hell, he can’t even remember fully how he got here, he doesn’t remember much about getting into space, but he feels like he’s had other journeys before, he feels like going on this adventure feels oddly… Familiar but it’s probably nothing! Xok is just curious about humans, they seem cool from the friends he has made so far up in space (...has he made friends before, in previous timelines…? …Well- Xok probably doesn’t remember so lmao, his memory is kinda screwed up) as far as Xo knows this is his first time meeting humans and getting to know them! And it’s in space! Hell Yeah!!! Space is awesome, its so vast and such a completely different sight than something like Hell p much!
|
Xok never learned to hide any of his features, he was never taught to blend in with humans, so he doesn’t have the slightest clue how… He REALLY wishes he did though, he wishes he learned how somewhere along the lines, it’d make this easier and he wouldn’t have to wear this outfit all the time but he can’t take any risks, because he just knows (its what his mind thinks) he k n o w s if the others see him, they’ll either start panicking, try to shun him away, or worse- they’ll turn on him and kill him …But enough angst- let’s have some fun in space and remember! Like I said before! ATTC! Always Trust The Captain! Hahahaha, he knows what he’s doing! <3

Honestly if we take into account the most popular headcanons and features we can extrapolate from canon the entire troll species becomes taxonomy nightmare
(warnimg, rant ahead, thread with caution)
They are a species that has 11 (formerly 12, that we know of) distinct different colours of blood, which differentiate between trolls far more than races could ever do in humans. They present mammalian or mammalian-like traits like hair and breasts and sweat, except the only hair they have is in the head, no sign or reference to other body hair, but are deeply referenced as insects, being hatch from eggs implied to be by the thousand with fully formed heads (with hair!!!!) and eight insect-like legs, except they have a weird symbiotic relationship with the another whole taxonomic terror that are lussi, wich are basically supersized earth animals, wich are completely nuclear white to stand the burning sun, wich have a similar blood system going on, that they use to ADOPT trolls, and one caste of lussi is tasked with using the genetic material of trolls? To make more eggs????
Trolls have internal skeletal structure but also some form of exoskeleton, the first of which they gain by "pupating" however apt the term is here. They are definitely nocturnal and probably have some limited night vision. Again, they are adopted by animals, who range from basically a dog to a eldritch horror that previously existed outside time and space (though this one is a bit of an outliner) in terms of intelligence, and normally trolls and lussi end up with similar characteristics, like cat lips or wings, is it because lussi choose based on likeness? Do trolls develop those features by exposure??? Who knows. Also trolls live span varies wildly, from half the average human life expectancy to literally the span of all human history and all in-between, those who live longer have incredible physical strength and general resilience to damage AND resistance to psychic powers, which SURPRISE!! Trolls have, to be precise those at the bottom, who on average have the capability to power entire spaceships, also tend to have flatter teeth whereas the other extreme have deep abyss needle teeth. Some can have wings some can have more than two eyes and or strange pupils, they have a whole alphabet to denote different lineages, wich along other pieces of information implies that trolls eggs are laid all in the same batch and emerge as they hatch, they are also thought to be capable of purring, at least once depicted as having blood colored stripes under UV light, sometimes they are imagined with tails and other animal traits, like animalistic appendages and, most important, toe beans. And please don't get me started in the clusterfuck that are the quadrants and the fucked up reproduction system
I can't tell if I missed something because trolls as a whole are so similar to us but so deeply alien, and I feel like the only reason we don't think about it is because they are mostly depicted through a painted medium, like, the this i said are not really estrange and can be found in nature (except the blood thing, that's wholecloth original, I think), but if you put it all together it creates a very fucked up species and I can only imagine biologists of all specialities trying of classifying this genetic alphabet soup of a species
Again sorry for the rant
Rants are perfectly acceptable for a ludicrous species like this one
I'm going with the idea that at some point before the lusus became symbiotic (or were artificially created? I'm leaning towards the later) trolls could reproduce without a mothergrub and lowbloods evolved faster than highbloods thanks to their shorter lifespan up until they gained a full skeleton while the highbloods remained in an early amphibian phase, then the mothergrub allowed the two subspecies to mix and created a highly unstable combination that originated all the extreme mutations behind their weird Phylum non-compliant traits
Btw Kanaya implied trolls have no night vision during a convo about her bioluminescence, one less thing to worry about xdd

Slender would be herobrine. He'd be in the world too, but as the minecraft god.
BTW imagine the horrors attacking the villagers. I can't take that seriously, BUT the villagers being actual humans dragged into the world, and the monsters don't attack the horrors, because the horrors are a type of monsters so they can do things like ride spiders.
Oh my god I love ALL of this.
Briar is a monster but she ends up doing weird shit like riding horses and taming stray cats and raising chickens and everyone is just really confused because she's not homicidal at all. [Briar the Horror, who ends up tagging along with a group of human adventurers, and fighting to protect them, as Jeff stalks his disobedient apprentice and tries to drag her home.]
HABIT has a literal kingdom that's a collection of villages who band together to fight monsters - and have 'tamed' a few, such as the Horrors.
Skeletons and zombies are suddenly so much more horrifying now. Witches kinda don't make sense anymore. Temples could have once been dedicated to the King or Slender. Endermen are cursed or exiled Inferni, and the End and Nether are cursed dimensions that technically no one is supposed to go to... but people do anyway.
Fuck, so many possibilities someone write this

...I think you just thought oh what if i change clothes so its like their monster form and after you finished and put out the one with zewi's finally started to think alright what do i put gaster in and didn't think of anything but a skin tight skeleton anatomy suit. well that and a body size coffee pot
Oh dear lord, Gaster wearing that would look really silly.
Btw, my actual thought process was: “I could style human Zewi’s hair like he has ‘cat ears’ but it would look stupid, besides, the color of his fur already looks like he’s wearing a hoodie. And I’ve seen japanese Undertale fanart where his monster form already wears one. Thus, I’ll give him a hoodie.”

So. I’ve seen a lot of like, hybrid AU’s so I decided to make my own! I’m not that good of an artist but I do enjoy drawing so maybe I’ll make some art someday. or never. Probably never. The AU itself also isn’t completely finished yet. Some small details still need to be done.
 HYBRID AU
-there are humans/players and hybrids. Hybrids are half mob, half human.
 -Some are not exactly half and half, but like 70% mob and 30% human or 40% mob and 60% human. Hybrids can be any mob kind; hostile, passive or neutral.
(example: Schlatt-Ram: passive Ranboo-Enderman: neutral Awesamdude-Creeper: hostile)
 -two hybrid parents can’t get a human child and two human parents can’t get a hybrid child. However, one human and one hybrid parents can get a human, or a hybrid child (Sally+Wilbur=Fundy)
 -shapeshifters are also a thing.
 -Shapeshifters are hybrids that were born as a certain hybrid, but can change into different hybrids. For example, you’re born as a skeleton hybrid but figured out, when you got older, that you could change into a parrot.
 -Shapeshifters can change into two hybrids minimum and five hybrids max.
 -when a shapeshifter gets a hybrid child, the kid will be the same hybrid as the shapeshifters birth form.
 -Sally is a shapeshifter. She was born as a fox hybrid what caused Fundy to be born as a fox. She can change into a fox, salmon and sheep.
 -shapeshifters are really rare
 List of hybrids on the Dream SMP:
Antfrost: cat
Awesamdude: creeper
Badboyhalo: ??? (haven’t decided yet)
CaptainPuffy: sheep
Eret: wither (I once found a fanfic where Eret is a wither hybrid and I really liked that so I’m sticking with that. The fanfic is ‘In June, I change my tune’ by ‘KryOnBlock’ btw you should check it out.
https://archiveofourown.org/works/27677741)
Fundy: fox
Philza: bird. Don’t know what type yet
Quackity: duck
Ranboo: enderman + something else.
Sapnap: blaze
Schlatt: ram
Skeppy: diamond block. Not official a hybrid
Technoblade: piglin
Tommy: raccoon
Tubbo: haven’t decided yet. He’s gonna be a bee or a ram
 Hybrid facts
-hybrid can hide their hybrid features, but it takes a lot of energy.
-on the Dream SMP it’s forbidden to use any hybrid abilities. This involves flying, teleportation, shooting fireballs or anything a normal player can’t do.
-hybrids can kid of feel if another person is a hybrid. There’s some sort o connection between them. You won’t know what type of hybrid, unless you’re both the same.
 Kerotonium
-Kerotonium is a plant that is extremely dangerous for hybrids, but not for players or mobs.
Kerotonium is some sort of poison. Once you consume it, you’ll become sick. The symptoms aren’t really special, most of the time just stomach ache, headache, dizzy, nauseous and tired. Only three days after you consumed it, specific Kerotonium symptoms start appearing. Your eyes turn completely black, same with your fingertips. You start to cough up some strange black goo and you start to hallucinate. The hallucination usually has something to do with your biggest fear. If you’re scared of spiders, you’ll start to see giant spiders every time you open your eyes. It doesn’t work when you’re blindfolded.
 -Kerotonium is deadly. If you don’t take the medicine you’ll die 5-10 days after you consumed the Kerotonium. (The medicine doesn’t have an official name yet) It only works in the form of an injection.
 -the medicine contains some rare items:
*Ghast tear
*Blaze rod
*Crimson fungus
*Rabbit foot
*Milk
*Honey
*Chorus fruit
 -Since it’s forbidden to go to the End, you’re unable to get chorus fruit so it’s guaranteed that the hybrid will die.
 -Kerotonium takes away all of your lives, even if you have still three lives left. If you’re lucky you return back as a ghost.
 That’s all I have for now. I’ll probably continue later, ad some more details and stuff like that. Feel free to ask questions! <3
I’ll be using the tag #dsmp hybrid au for my AU
