Concept: John loses all his phenomenal cosmic power and has to go back to being Just John. Gideon shoves him in a sack and puts him on a transport to a shepherd world, which saves his life but gives him a whole new world of problems. Now he has to survive on his wits and charm and most terrifyingly of all.... on the kindness of strangers.
I think I'd call it. The Emperor's New Groove.

I love kanaya and karkat, they're like siblings, like besties-but-not-quite, karkat looks up to her because she's like the only troll who's comfortable showing respect for others and who he feels at least kind of gets him, and kanaya's like "he helps me feel like my life isn't drastically different and I haven't lost everything I used to love from my childhood"
like they love each others but not in a relationship way or a friendship way their existence just makes them feel a little more validated and comforted

Do you think boomer would ever be comfortable talking about his son’s death? I mean losing the kid is way harder.
Or he hasn’t never told anyone he ever had a son and when he just mentioned it out of the blue everyone’s like surprise and I can just imagine Harley saying oh my God you have a kid can we see him and Boomer just said it’s so normally you can’t, he’s dead he got murdered anyway, I’m hungry 
I feel like Boomer doesn't deal well with death of people close to him. He probably just doesn't actually think of it as a thing that happened, but more like as a fact - my son was also ginger, he was young, he died.
He gets into his feelings only when he has to recall the way he died and it's like it happens all over again. I'd say it's something like shock for him, just staying way longer than for normal people.
Digger can be childish, but he's also kinda... Apathetic to most things that happen around him. Most people would probably tie the "he's dead" under it, but I feel like Harley, ex psychologist, would try to get some more information and with every push, it'd just make Boomer more jumpy, more scared.
If the kid would die in front of him, I imagine he'd remember every single detail. Especially since I hc it that the kid died at his 8th bday. (you know, just for fun)
So, for me, it would be way more like the second version.
~~~
The squad was mostly tired right now. The after-mission high was slowly dying out, when they sat down in the random Gotham fast-food and Flag went to get their orders in. The subject was technically started by Harley, one of her painted nails pointed at a kids meal with a toy.
"Ya think we should get it for my gal and Toyboy?" she said, a genuinely happy smile on her face. "And the toys aren't bat-themed!"
Shark grabber the menu and pulled it almost comically close to his face, while Floyd rolled his eyes.
"Zoey has been into green lantern theme lately, though she says Wonder Woman is still her favourite..." he mumbled, trying to keep his typical for Gotham look.
"My kid loved the toys back in Australia, doubt he'd like them here though."
Boomer said, shocking most of them. Deadshot looks at him with worry mixed with anger, while Shark tries to decide if it's another weird joke. Only Harley smiles wider, though there's slight surprise in her eyes, too.
"Ya have a kid? Oh me, are they ginger like ya? How old are they? Why haven't we met em?! Do ya have pictures?" her voice is delighted at the idea, even though a smaller Digger doesn't sound so great.
"Uh, ye, a son, yeah, eight and he's dead, been dead for a while, so I don't have pictures." he counts the answers out on his fingers, missing how everyone freezes. Before anyone tries to say more, he softly whispers under his breath, like it's a memory hitting him suddenly: "I didn't have money for his burial..."
And Harley catches the shake of his hand, the tremble of his voice and the way his eyes look down in shame and something so close to self-hatered that it makes her stomach flip.
By the time food comes, Boomer's acting like he never said anything, eating with vigor of someone who didn't have a meal for weeks. The rest of them just send each other worried stares in silence, poking at the food and trying to regain their appetite.

I saw “yandere toys” and I immediately thought of the movie Benny Loves You. It’s a movie (by a first time director who also acted in the movie as well as did the animation for Benny) where the toy Benny is found by the main character while cleaning out his room and try to be more of an adult and Benny doesn’t want him to move on from him (from what I can remember it has been a hot minute since I say the movie)
I remember watching a kill count video on this movie! The guy who wrote it also directed, starred, and edited the whole thing and it took about five years I think? It's a silly movie, I think I'd like to watch it fully!
Benny loves you was pretty well designed tbh I love the goofy little doll they have, he makes me giggle every time I look at him

A raid from Hot Minute's niece and a social fight between Kaz and Wendy occurred at the same time, which was stressful but ultimately solved with Albina's overpowered 'summon pack' psycast. I love that psycast.
Wendy broke Kaz's nose and won the social fight, if you were curious.
Pig, the guy from The Menra Covenant who tried to marry Hazrov a while back, is trying to get with Candlelight now (we said no).
I was amused reading through Zonovo's social interactions and seeing that he's apparently in a gambling mood today. Cards, dice, roulette... He's happy chatting about them all.
Kawoo is the only colonist I've ever seen using the pool I spent so many resources to build, so I wanted to draw her enjoying herself.
I imagine it takes a lot of shaking to get all that fur dry, but she's probably super fuzzy and soft afterwards!
Finally, Hot Minute's nephew and some of his friends crash-landed right into Baz and Zonovo's bedroom, which was very rude of them. They busted down a wall and got ambushed by a turret and two of our nightlings, who distracted them until some of my colonists could run over and take them down.
Then we ripscanned Hot Minute's nephew, haha. Serves him right.
