[Image Description: Two versions of the same illustration. The illustration shows a cartoon person who has had the top of their skull removed, exposing their brain. The person looks surprised, a starburst shape behind them suggesting their mind was "blown". The first verion of the image is textless, however the second has text at the top and bottom reading: "Wizard Needs Food/ Grilled Battery". /End ID.]

There are some jawless corpses somewhere in a recycling factory beneath Battery City who really really hate Fun Ghoul, but at least he mostly knows how to responisbly use explosives nowadays!..Mostly...

#fun fact! the fab four are actually less scary together than apart! second fun fact! despite not using incendiary devices and such much #demolition is still fun ghoul's area of expertise as a runner. including delayed fuse reactions :) #danger days #fun ghoul #killjoy headcanons #headcanons #killjoys #ttlotfk

what if DESTROYA is portrayed as the villain in mousekat cartoons as BL propaganda?

#i still like this a lot tbh

[vinyls-and-valentines]

Technically speaking, Old Man Yaoi is a valid killjoy name

#i do think the decontextualization would be funny especially in the context of like. how antithetical preservation of pop culture elements #is between my version of the zones and the lobby #n e ways. off i go back to manga and anime land. trying to fend off the impulse to read the jujutsu kaisen manga now that i've caught up #with the anime. it has barely been a month since i finished binge-reading haikyu so my brain is still mildly frazzled #danger days #killjoys #ttlotfk #boo's shitposts

Ah, yes, the two stances on canon: "you're fucking dead to me" and "wanna make out sloppy style in the parking lot?"

#there are of course secret third and fourth and fifth options and so on. however. this is just me being a little silly goofy <3 #definitely making out sloppy style with the canon of [redacted] though. i like their characterisation and although the worldbuilding is #minimal it isn't lackluster by any means which i really like #also i do find it funny that whenever i talk about another piece of media that i don't particularly care to discuss beyond off-handed #comments I use 'redacted' which makes it sound like [redacted] and [redacted] are the same thing although they're completely different #boo rambles

There are whispers of things before Battery City.

Of stubby buildings not unlike the skyscrapers modern citizens proudly call home and safety, but adorned with flimsy wood and glass cut-outs, or plaster casts that range from vain to downright obscene. Of wilderness, untamed, smothering clean and orderly neighbourhoods in an onslaught of burrowing roots, web-woven branches, and leaves serving as nothing more than breeding grounds for pests.

The bones of what once were giants now rest on the outskirts of town, hollowed and forgotten, like stalwart reminders of hardship overcome through ambition and human ingenuity. Yet, if one were to take a closer look at these remains, they would find little to no proof of any of the above: no scars left in the pavement or shattered stone ornaments— only scortched earth, shattered glass tinted by years of grime and canned paints amongst pieces of plastic all strewn about and shriveled up in shame.

Instead, the truth lives in glimpses caught between the pages of tattered journals, lost family albums, and long-overdue history books. There once were museums where Battery City now stands. Churches, libraries, and synagogues. Broadcast stations and astronomical observatories. There were post offices and schools, and houses older than the ages of everyone you've known combined, none of which still standing in the age of Progress and Valor (or more aptly known as the Danger Days).

What remains of the past now rests alone and dejected, a warning lost beneath the waves: Make yourself insignificant enough, and maybe one day you'll get yourself to believe comformity will lead you to survival.

#been thinking about cyberpunk/dystopian settings again lately and ended up using my battery city hcs as a point of reference because it's #got some interesting details like how the only surviving buildings from before the danger days are gas stations corner stores and suburban #homes while everything else got demolished in favour of power plants and skyscrapers #anyways. being so normal about change and the state of disrepair of various landmarks from my youth <- lies (silly) #danger days #killjoys #ttlotfk #battery city #danger days headcanons #headcanon

The most evil thing in Battery City is the sheer amount of paperwork there is

#ngl. when i wrote this my seething hatred of having to do paperwork made me forget this is canon <3 #self reblog

In Battery City you are not a person- you're a name and a number. Your name is yours, and you may change it however you please in empty hopes you'll become someone else, but Better Living doesn't truly care for it. Names- although powerful when used correctly- are simply too unreliable and ephemeral in nature to serve such a great purpose as the one held behind closed doors and tangled in wires deep within the heart of the City.

Numbers, however, are far more reliable, stretching on to infinity in neat little patterns easily recognizable by human eyes and computer programs alike. Some of the eyes that bare witness to the mesmerizing sight of these ever-shifting digits are those of juvie halls, quietly watching as numbers slide across the screen whispering of secrets known and yet to be discovered. The thing with computer programs, though, is that much like names they too are unreliable and with the click of a couple keys any person can be added or removed without a trace from the City's precious little digital database- for the right price, that is, of course

#self reblog #i just think it's neat <- talking about its own prose #also like. in battery city you truly are just a statistic and a bank account identification key but since that information is split across #so many departments it's a bitch to truly vanish once you're in their systems #unreality #jic

Heard the Blender website is putting up a banner just for me saying "Welcome home, cheater" whenever I decide I want to get back into 3D modelling :/

#this is a joke but like. it has been 6 years since i've last touched blender and even then i only spent like 3-5 hours figuring lighting #very basic element manipulation and how the plug-ins i had installed worked for stuff like 3d animation and texture mapping #i'll watch a video on how to work this stuff eventually. until then i'll just fuck around and find out <- it's been putting off as much as #downloading the program for months because it's been going through a bad case of artblock #might also learn blockbench solely because i like changing my mc skin at least once a year and the browser editor i use is. laggy #shout out to skinpedia though. it and planet minecraft truly have been carrying these past 7 years ✌ #boo rambles

...I should go to the craft store some time

#^ beseiged by a need to buy shiny plastic beads and rhinestones #also clamps. i want more clamps so i can hang more stuff off my jeans and the pull tab hooks on my battle jacket #oh. and a note to myself but i should check if I have enough carboard/the appropriate thickness of cardboard for the thingamabob #n e ways. niche skills don't learn themselves for the sake of a silly cosplay fit so i'm off ✌ #boo rambles

OCs are great because sometimes they're just some transmasc guy working retail and having a ghost hunting/private investigator side-gig thrust upon them by a sleep apnea-induced near death experience, and sometimes it's a girl entrusted with magical powers & conditional immortality in a way that's severely frowned upon from a socio-economic perspective, and sometimes it's just a person in their early to mid 20s trying to work through their toxic relationship and deep-seated anger issues

#also fun fact but me and ghost boy share a name on a technicality (i'm maxx he's max. i have no idea how we got here) #they wear the weight of the world on their shoulders but also their rent is due on friday and the bank's been having fuck-ups for the past #years and their job only sends out their pay to that specific bank only because they are partnered together <3 #^ partially speaking from experience ahahaha </3 #boo rambles
