i gotta know, how to the bodies communicate for trumpets

because we already know that towers use radio waves, do trumpets use similar methods? or something slower than light? that could be interesting where they think just as complex as we can, it's just slower because (based on the scale of chariot in the planets post) it could take a few seconds at near light speeds to send a signal from one side to the other and trumpets are planet-wide collective intelligences

idk idk, i just wanna know how that works, i love your aliens and trumpets seem untalked about, which is a shame

On Trumpet performance language

Trumpets have evolved by using their nodes’ behaviors rather than overriding them. Interpersonal language is applied instinctual displays from nodal species. The timing, actor positions relative to other actors, and viewing angle influence the meaning of a concert’s performance.

Since trumpet acted language and written language evolved independently, they don’t have a strong correlation until organized society much later, when performances begin needing records, and records begin needing to be read by trumpets other than the author.

On memory

Trumpets store information using the collective memories of the flora and fauna that live on them: nodes.

Sessile organisms take in memories, relay information, and listen for inquiries. Their memory is dense and quickly readable, something similar to computer RAM.

Motile nodes can also store memory, but due to their minds being preoccupied with processing their experiences and placing priority on relevant knowledge, they aren’t reliable for long term storage since they are susceptible to compromise (like putting your valuables in a box out in a room rather than in the garage.)

In exchange for holding onto valuable experience, the sessile nodes get protected and propagated.

How Trumpets regulate their ecosystem

Predators of the system kill their prey in a controlled, instant way. Prey nodes designated for eating have no fear, and live healthy lives prior.

In return, predator nodes provide herbivores with information and protection from non-trumpets.

Since herbivore nodes have an equally powerful say in the decisions of predators, they have selected for individuals with weaker prey drives towards nodes used for computation.

Trumpets cycle their resources in a methodical, efficient way to allow the minds of all nodes to focus on communicating.

The same goes for vegetation. Since they hold memories, they grow nutrient rich, dataless crops for herbivores to eat instead of anything vital.

A trumpet may involuntarily alter the ratios of node types, but only in emergencies. Think of adrenaline, or inflammation from isolation. A panicking trumpet who fears for its safety can birth more predator nodes, but will need to devote energy to sowing more food soon. Trumpets prefer homeostasis in their ecosystems.

Nearly all of the nutrients the trumpet cycles start from the large autotrophic body who photosynthesizes and filter feeds, then distributes its resources into organisms that subsist commensally or formerly parasitically on it. The trumpet allots for them and is not harmed.

Many of these sessile organisms are descendants of jet propulsed lineages and can still move around (think of anemones).

Tools

Trumpets develop tools by breeding for species or species’ byproducts. Knives were among the first inventions through the extended mouthparts of small, portable nodes. Technology is spread via sharing studs.

Loneliness at the edge of language density

Trumpets are unable to integrate aliens into their biology, but do enjoy talking with groups of aliens (to account for language density).

The sophonts most capable of communicating with trumpets with minimal resources (excluding life support, which would make them one of the most resource intensive) are boxkites, who have a fractal sense of individuality—a group of individuals together is as singular as one individual alone.

A group of 30 boxkites can maintain a conversation with a trumpet, since each boxkite can establish tactile communication with up to 4 simultaneous partners, combining processing power.

To answer your question

Trumpets communicate using lasers produced via nodes with gas bladders and electric organs.

They are quick thinkers, but their perception of time a ‘train of thought’ is more fluid than ours.

Depending on the species of the node, stimuli are observed at different rates, density, and types.

Trumpets are capable of having multiple simultaneous lines of thought by directing nodes to communicate within clusters.

On focus

A trumpet’s focus is its priority on nodes facing novel situations or issues.

If the group of nodes are small sensory prey, information intake becomes rapid and perceptive capacity grows with it.

If the focus is on a sessile node who’s registering a gradual increase in food scents, perceptive ability decreases as more priority is placed on the nodes who can report vital information at any moment, but not very densely or quickly.

Trumpets can have multiple foci at once, but since their total mental bandwidth is finite, all foci add up to the total communicative capacity of the trumpet.

Trumpets can theoretically evenly distribute their focus to every node, but it would be nearly impossible to make decisions more complex than reflexes and first-come-first-serve communication between nodes, meaning valuable messages are given as much weight as run-of-the-mill reports. This is a stupor state for trumpets.

On the other end, putting total communicative priority on a single node will mean any report of the focus will interrupt all other channels, like national alerts on television. This tunnel vision state is also unproductive, only approached by trumpets who have extreme distrust.

First contact

Trumpets were contacted by a team of crowns who detected a living presence on the trumpet homeworld.

The first trumpets contacted were a community. Due to the lack of infrastructure and the sheer size of the planet, a portion of the total trumpet population is still learning about the first contact years later. Languages have been deciphered and a peaceful, minimal presence is established for researchers.

Oz is one of the trumpets who learns about the first contact a little while after it happens. He’s skeptical, and dismisses the aliens’ small and quiet operations. He establishes himself as to not be bothered—alien organizations have agreed to leave trumpets alone upon their requests.

Trumpets are buoyant and carried by the wind. The largest body is free floating, but may be (slowly) thrusted manually by jet-propelled nodes.

More on Boxkite group language

Gal the boxkite is only capable of casually communicating with one partner at a time, two if she strains herself.

Even talking with one partner, boxkite tactile language is very dense.

Humans and other sophonts can equip touch pad translators on their bodies for boxkites to type on. The translated messages can be linked to a speaker or earpiece.

Infant boxkites aggregate in groups to compensate for their limited individual cognitive ability.

Do you take art requests by chance?

If yes, can you do a quickie of Mary and Dick Grayson, spending some Mother and Son time together in the trailer living room?

It’s entirely up to you, no pressure at all ;-)

Hello friend! I'm your person for the rwby exchange hosted by Zac.

Just wanted to say hi!

Also I wanna hear about your Ozpin Grim AU even if I don't use it. It sounds cool!

Hi there! It's good to hear from you :>

And boy you're asking me something here- I actually have *checks notes* 5 grimm oz au's. But for now I'll tell you the general gist of my main one, of which I also put down a prompt or two:

And tbh, there isn't all that much to it. Most things play out like they do in canon. 

Oz is still headmaster of Beacon, and a powerful ally to humanity. Although he has had his moments in time where he was not.*

Salem and his curse are switched. Which means that Oz is immortal, and Salem reincarnates (she eventually reincarnates in Cinder).

Oz sought out the same possible solution of ending his curse that Salem did, resulting in him being Grimm.

“But why is it Ozpin and not Ozma” you ask? Well, I like Ozpin more, so there you have it lol-

Salem and Oz’s motives remain the same. Oz needs to reunite the world while Salem only seeks to end it. 

Like I said earlier, instead of Oz, Salem reincarnates. She, unlike Oz creating the maidens, creates the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse. Who these Four Horsemen are at this point though, I haven't decided yet.

* Oz, in his long time on remnant, has tried many different methods to achieve his goal. Some of which more violent and/or extreme than the other, definitely deserving of the title of "villain". During his time on remnant, he has been the best and worst version of himself. Just as he's seen the world and humanity at its highest and lowest point. It would only make sense for his actions to reflect the current state of the world.

Oz took part in creating the huntsmen schools. He feels as though Beacon represents the best part of himself, and he would do everything in his power to preserve it.

As for clothing, he seems to be really fond of victorian gothic looks.

If you're interested, here's a link to his main design

And here's a link to a pinterest board of outfit inspiration, which is a general one for all of my Grimm Oz au's combined.

- Also, regarding my prompts for this exchange, feel free to switch around certain characters or ships for prompts! I think I forgot to mention that in my submitted form haha

[greatpawtender]

same anon lol. follow up from my previous ask (I started thinking about oz and the original team more):

augh. Thinking about laurent genuinely trying to connect with makoto and failing. Thinking about him watching abbie and cynthia connect with makoto effortlessly, and feeling left out. Thinking about him talking to oz about it, and realising that oz knows nothing about makoto at all. laurent getting angry, because even he knows makoto better, and suddenly feels responsible for him. imagining laurent blaming oz, blaming shi-won because they "made" him this way, even though by now he's responsible for his own actions. I'm imagining shi-won specifically calling him out on this, because she's been there the longest. how even though he suffered, at some point he has to accept that his decisions were his own. and that arguably, makoto was put through far, far worse things than he was.

laurent empathising with makoto more and more and starting to feel kind of angry on his behalf, but realising that by now there's very little he can do... he can resent the remaining members of the original team confidence all he wants, but they've been so good to him. they're old friends but they're also walking wounds. he can blame shi-won for teaching dorothy, for bringing him to dorothy. he can blame oz for giving him makoto to work with. he can blame them, but it's not going to change anything. shi-won at least stuck by his side, so she's easier to forgive. oz is harder to forgive, even if he gave up everything for dorothy, for laurent. laurent is splitting hairs here, because he still blames them less than he blames himself.

I think once laurent has this realisation, he doesn't really know what to do with himself. he still does cons and stuff because he probably feels like anything else would be boring, but I think he now kind of wants to shoot oz (not shi-won, because like I said, her sticking directly by his side all those years makes it easier for him to "forgive" her). he gives himself reasons to hurt oz in these cons because he doesn't know when to quit a bad habit when he's spiralling. oz notices, but he doesn’t say anything. he does whatever laurent asks of him, because he's right. I don't think oz feels bad for laurent, however (I think he just feels bad for makoto at this point, because he's already processed most of his grief and self-loathing regarding miki).

I think oz is the type of person to mask his loneliness. he probably cares about laurent the same way two people in a jail cell care about each other. he does whatever laurent asks of him almost like a peace offering, because he's used to just playing whatever role people ask of him without question. he probably doesn't know who he is anymore, and he probably doesn't care. he'll just follow whatever laurent says because the memories he made with team confidence stick to him like old wallpaper, and he can't bring himself to peel them off. he traded one life for another, and he lost both of them.

unlike them, I imagine shi-won already made peace with her demons long ago. there's a reason she told kudo to just let his daughter go. there's a reason why she didn't get an arc to herself. I don't think she feels bad that they're going through this, but she probably tries to distract them once in a while because the one-sided tension between them is annoying to deal with.

sorry I'm a little skdjsjajfj about them

as it is, it feels to me that oz just goes along with what others want most of the time. he isn't too different from makoto in that regard orz

op how does it feel like to be the sexiest person on earth

god god god I LOVEE your thoughts about laurent theyre so incredibly great I've never seen more correct hcs than yours

laurent and oz bonding over fucking up makotos life augohfj its sad but. But. sigh

laurent empathizing with makoto and somehow relating to him now bc he realizes he kinda been through the same shit as him. but like. makoto dealt with way worse so he cant really say anything so he lashes out at the og team instead orz 😭

oz doing everything laurent asks kf him the same way makoto does too now . im going insanw now.

thanks op sorry i dont have anything to say bht please know that i fucking love all ur thoughts about this thank you so much you have opened my eyes

#AUOOHJHFJ #thank u for introducing me to laurent/oz ship too. i love old man yaoi #well tbh ive always been considering them but i never really shipped them fully bc it was awkward since everyone shipped edaurent #and i felt weird if i ship the guy with the other guy's Dad #but im not an edaurent guy anyway #i hope you edaurent shippers are thriving though #grepre #great pretender #chair rambles #ask #anon ask

6.) Would you rather find giant fingerprints on your car or tiny footprints in your house?

7.) Would you rather be at your fantasy size for a day or permanently?

8.) Would you rather have a G/t relationship that’s platonic or romantic?

9.) Would you rather be able to change your own size or be able to change others’ sizes?

10.) Would you rather go on a harrowing adventure at your fantasy size or have a safe/relaxing time with it?

OOOOGH

6.) Giant fingerprints on my car, absolutely 7.) Okay, soooooo this is an interesting question, and because of this I'm creating a poll lol. My "fantasy size" is to be "normal sized around giants"...so I guess I'm already here, since I'm normal sized lol 8.) Romantic, next question lol No, but jokes aside G/t really is a vessel for intimacy and romance for me and my heart when it comes to the content I create. While I've been trying to experiment a lot more with G/t platonically (Donovan as a Giant and being more of a maternal figure, Freyja with Ekland & Tuesday and her other Human friends, Zelly's future interactions with Rowan's friends the Stone family), it also doesn't naturally come to me in that same way. Also having a giant wife would just be really neat 9.) OOOGH TOUGH mmmmmmm...well like I said before in 7, my preferred size is the one I am right now...so I guess be able to change the size of others! 10.) As much I'd love to see a giant cutie throw fists at monsters, I probably would want a safe/relaxing time 😭 give me a giant that'll pick me up and we can curl up under the stars together up in a forest on a mountain

I really hope I can watch replays of the episodes of season 5 when they air because those are school days and I have to do a show after like every single one of them

[summocrap]

Oz romance headcanons?

I guess there's going to be no cut this time:

Oz is a very soft boy. He's quiet, shy, and more likely to run away from any problem than actually address it.

If he ever caught feelings for anyone, you'd probably never see Oz again because he'd likely be scared into switching to Zo at the slightest inconvenience.

But that's only if Zo doesn't immediately down the potion himself to force the little guy to confront his feelings.

That's not to say he wouldn't immediately run away.

Oz would have some vague idea what love is, and probably when he's feeling it, but he'd just need some help to confront it.

He'd be consumed by thoughts of rejection and would sadly tell himself it's better to not try at all.

The other person would have to initiate the actual relationship, and even then, Oz would still be tense as fuck.

He'd constantly be asking himself if the date is good, is he oversharing his interests, is he even a good partner.

He'd likely break it off of his own accord if the other person doesn't occasionally reassure him.

did you get your name from season 5 episode 14 of breaking bad or was that just a happy coincidence

the number of media that shared the Ozymandias reference i discovered after borrowing the name....

short answer: wasn't planned :] happy coincidence

long answer:

if i want to be lame or not be considered cringe, i can go back to the poem by percy b shelley and yea that's it, the source. but that's not all...

as of now people have cited the breaking bad episode a lot. or the DC character. both of those i watched after choosing my name (circa september 2021).

i watched the Watchmen movie circa march 2022 and breaking bad during spring 2023. so they are not the source material

the source material for my name is, in fact,

SCP-245

or well. the game. so that's scp-245-1 but it's scp-245 that quotes the poem

i was enamoured by his voice, the way he(/it?) quoted it and how relevant it was to his story arc. i was a big fan of rpg horror games and creepypasta/scp at the time (like . 2015?) and that's how i discovered the poem. it was my roman empire in some way

i also like how it applies to my view of the world and how i interract with it. as long as i've remembered, i've wished not to be remembered when i die. Nothing Beside Remains. i accomplish nothing meaningful in my life and prolly create irreparable damage unbeknownst to me. Round That Colossal Wreck. i am nothing but a small fraction of what has happened and what's yet to happen in the universe. Boundless And Bare, The Low And Level Sands Stretch Far Away.

though, i do think i'm superior in some way, and an egotistical, Whose Frown, / And Wrinkled Lip, And Sneer of Cold Command keep people away. i am the King of Kings and Ye Mighty should rightfully Despair when looking Upon My Works, as i produce art, love and things beyond your comprehension

the way things matter now and how they'll never matter as much ever again. how things are fleeting. how it is all meaningless to be so vain, but how it also is a reason to be vain. how we are beautifully alive and doomed from the start. i am everything. yet i am nothing.

also it is believed that it is Ozymandias, also known as Rameses II, is the Pharaoh who caused the Plagues in the Bible, during the Moise n Exodus episode. :] being raised a catholic, yknow i had to sprinkle it with mocking irony, although it is more like a tribute.

#rambling #my name. is everything #also! happy coincidence for oz / wizard of oz. although i was in love with the 1936 movie since childhood #i do be magic :*] #before ozymandias my name was vincent btw. i considered victor but didn't want to make it too obvious that i was a freak abt frankenstein #i hope percy shelley and mary shelley are happ i wear this name loving sigh. and how it still matters even now #ask #thank you for the question darling i hope i didn't get too depressive hehe

[charseraph]

How do you personally go about creating a species/worldbuilding? I don't mean like a tutorial or anything, I just like behind the scenes stuff and I love learning about people's individual creative processes :3

I first think of a mode of intelligence/communication, and then an emotional trait. Anger, for example, will be the same—the want for justice—but the context and carrier of that emotion are unfamiliar.

For example, Oz is a collaborative intelligence, and he feels angry.

He is frustrated at himself for flubbing his first contact with the engineers operating a survey probe. He’s only been treated with respect, but knows as a result he’s sent the message that he should be avoided. He wishes he could explain he wants be interacted with, but struggles to let go of his defensiveness and independence. His self-assurance, working only when he’s alone, falls short in the presence of another when he feels unlikable. He aches to trust someone.

Maybe another trumpet betrayed his trust, maybe he was abandoned, maybe he was hurt. Whatever happened, Oz is trying to recover. All of my characters are. It’s a way to show that a vulnerable person can look like anyone, and anyone can be loved.

Since your into Wizard Of Oz like you said in your bio, have you seen Daisy McGuire's Yellow Brick Ramble webcomic?

I’ve seen it in passing! I’ve not read it yet, but it is interesting!

I love the storyline with tip and the gang there just as much as dorthy’s personally! It’s nice too that it leans into how queer the original story was. Thank you for reminding me of it!

#thanks for the ask! #wizard of oz #I’ve rewatched the anime so many times it’s nice there’s other stuff out there lol

[mystery-salad]

You liked my post. Your turn now. Your commanders ranked by scarring

uvu well if u insist!

From least to most:

Cora - The benefit of being exalted, no scars no injuries at all now!

Vuisce - Heals very well, exceptionally so since they've started physically altering from all the raw magic exposure!

Cara - Good luck landing a hit hard enough to leave a mark~ But if someone did manage to, they would scar easily.

Roibird - Heals well and takes notably good care of his body, doesn't keep scars easily.

Trella - A few lab accidents but nothing too serious in her life! Minor scars she has very fun stories for!

Marta - She doesn't scar easily, but lived a pretty normal adventurous norn life early on! She's also gained a few frostbite scars from her ordeal in icebrood saga.

Hastigi - Minimal scarring beyond some healed cuts from fights, pretty standard stuff for how much she's done.

Call - Scars stand out in her bark, but she's also pretty tough. Has a few notable marks to tell stories about, but nothing that would make you fear for her life.

Mai Trin - being a sky pirate who was very hands-on in a huge battle, defeated, fought through the fractals for multiple years, then faced even more threats in Cantha will leave you with some serious marks. Most notable is the scar from the bullet Ankka grazed her with that contained some necrotic damage.

Kai - Large scar across her face from when she fought her warband, lots of scars on her body that show through her fur from various legionnaire attempts to take her bounty once she was a gladium.

Roi - Her body is littered with the faint scars of her many attempts to rewrite the past. So many echoes of herself on her own body...Nothing that stuck too severely, but it's noticeable.

Joel - Massive head wound across half their head, but it no longer scars at all after that so this is the only notable scar.

Ruan - burn scars on their joints, healed well but still visible.

Matthias - Severe scarring across torso/back and minor scars across the rest of his body aside from hands and face.

Laighe - Missing a leg and both arms, severe scars from head down neck, chest, and arms.

Taomesin - Half their body mass is missing, from a leg/arm/huge hole in their back. The rest of them is badly scarred as well from various incidents.

Quaille - its body is one giant open wound at this point. help.

#dasozelotvonnebenan #thanks for the ask Oz! o/ #some of these could probably vary in ranking depending on what's considered serious scarring this got a little arbitrary in places #but OVERALL it feels right

gimme your top 5 hot takes about rwby

I'm afraid I don’t have an accurate gauge of what qualifies as a “hot take” (or even what it actually is. Is it merely a controversial opinion?) so if any of these are ice cold I apologize

Adam and the Rose family should be connected in some way. Visual cues are important and there's so much spicy potential, especially if the dynamic originated with Summer

For Roman, the best and longest standing villain of the show, to be one of the few on-screen Grimm deaths is borderline parody. Personally, I think Ruby should’ve had a more active role in his death, even if by accident or setting up circumstances like she did Neo

Ozma’s situation is far more horrifying and sympathetic than Salem’s. The gods proved that they could bring Ozma back to life in his own body, but instead he’s forced to be a body snatcher? That’s fucked up in so many ways. She may be able to die again and again, but I think it’s way worse to die knowing you’re dooming several people at once

May Marigold isn’t that great of trans rep. She’s so unmemorable and inconsequential to the plot that the only reason I remember her at all is because she’s The Trans One. Like, glad they made her trans, and the reveal was respectful and clear and not even plot-relevant!, but maybe make her a good character first?

If we’re going by the show’s queer golden rule of blushing = romantic feelings, then Ruby had a crush on Emerald in V3 and it should have been explored way more for angst purposes

#rwde #thanks for asking #i will never shut up abt adam/rose family connections and theres nothing you can do abt it #blake or weiss being the one to take down roman would also be interesting but i think the most effective dynamic is ruby and roman #honestly you could make a sitcom w those two and id watch the shit out of it #'my roommate is a mob boss' #(depending on how old Roman actually is. RWBY isnt great at depicting ages unless youre on an extreme end) #(idk age them up for college lmao) #also i 100% hc ruby as a trans lesbian #qrow took her to get her first dose of E #trans solidarity babeyyyyy #this is a completely different topic but yangs existence in canon makes way more sense if both tai and raven are trans as well #canon raven does Not seem the type to allow herself to be in a long term relationship much less get pregnant #or if she did she'd take the child to raise as a protege. a true heir to the branwen name #not leave the kid behind for... reasons #why did raven run again? i think the show ended on 'she was scared' or smth. or didnt trust oz bc... bird #idk the show was dumb abt the whole thing #anyway i'll happily explain if anyone wants more elaboration ^w^
