I have made the glowstick people now!!!! they're like Pippins but not idk but I feel they would get along super well
I don't have much to say about them they love to party they're super energetic and they're everywhere bro just like how there were a lot of Pippins in chapter 3
design wise the lighter colored bands idk what to call them are supposed to be those plastic connectors you put on those bracelet/necklace glow sticks
idea thingy that @bugofmanynames helped me with :D
they also designed the party popper guys the triangle head ones!!! they don’t have a name yet :p
besides that the characters are Dj Gleam, Mache, and Candi!!
Basically the fun gang are going around trying to find Dj Gleam since maybe he could help them out to find the fountain, but first they go to Techno, an interaction I will draw later.. but basically he says “No, I’m Not Dj Gleam” so they go around and this basically happens but instead of Dj Gleam saying he’s Dj Gleam, Techno says that he finally arrived basically 😁😁 then they have a peak party until he finishes playing, but then they wait ten years in line so Susie goes “Screw this!!” And cuts to talk to Dj Gleam cause she is NOT going to wait lol
Techno!!!! He's Dj Gleam's side dj who would play before him and set up with the speakers (still needs a design they will hopefully be my next design)
Techno looks kinda like Queen because he's also a laptop since at a party they use those to play music also he is who helps Dj Gleam make music for the parties to make them super duper hype but they do both have their own style in music and separately can make music
His glasses can have shapes, change colors in text and do that like beat thing with the lines videos have in visualizer type versions for songs not sure how to explain it
last thing I did the two images to show the w/o glasses obviously but almost always he wears them 😇😁 also his normal face can change like queens but not usually and another thing similar between queen and techno is the way they talk all words are capitalized
thank you to @bugofmanynames for helping me with the ideas for him!!!!!!!
I have more ideas but this dark world is a party world so they party obviously
Dj Gleam would be the final and loves to run the parties cause he’s a disco ball which I feel would probably be the most important part to a party or fun lights lol
Candi is a kandi bracelet snake and she can change how she looks with the beads like when you twist a bracelet and it stays if that makes any sense
Other ideas I have would be speaker guys not like Sweet Cap’n or K_K since I’m pretty sure those guys are speakers but maybe similar idk and they would be the side guys to Dj Gleam and only 2
More would be a glow stick guy which remind me of the pippins how there’s like a billion of them
then maybe a piñata guy cause I love those things they’re so fun
basically anything party related I can think of
also thanks to @angelblossm for helping me design Dj Gleam!! and also idea stuff for this 😁
Fern is a star critter person idk the species doesn’t really have a name but he lives on this planet with a bunch of other guys (I will show more later I just didn’t want to draw everybody who is important) he is the main character and like into the story he learns more about this purpose to support the universe (in my story a green star is a special variant and is insanely uncommon to ever happen, being one to replace the current green star in the future (I’ll show him later))
Uhh basic explanation is he finds out about this Comet guy (they are what sends out people to protect the planets/universe and rebuild if any disasters happen) and later has issues with the book he gets from the library cause Lucent (blue guy) tries to take it back after that specific Constellation Andriod tells him hey so like we need that book back cause if Black Hole (also named Thistle) is attempting to basically kill The Comet but is unsure where so he needs to send out two people (one is a robot Lucent made named D1sM4NtL (dismantle) and a shapeshifter girl named Berry who easily followed his ways (this is at least like the beginning of the story anyways)
They attempt to steal the book but are very unsuccessful, at least Berry is.
Lucent is a historian and loves research so he has written many books about the very important people who keep the universe all running (idk how to explain it??) but in his past he also attempted to build robot androids whatever that would protect the more weaker creatures of the planets but ended up deciding no this is bad and won’t work, having them destroy all of them. Thistle got somebody to rebuild the only powered robot and use it for evil (mahaha) so now it’s a killing machine. Also I have no clue what Lucent is supposed to be he is an old oc I reused so
Lastly on it is Constellation Andriod (they have their own like serial code number but I can’t find the sketch book it’s in currently 😔) but they’re a very huge group of androids that are messengers for Constellation (they are what they sound a GIANT constellation made up of a bunch of like dead stars that uhh hh I don’t know I haven’t thought about it enough to explain) but they are the souls of those stars (like the stars making up constellation can individually go into the android body) but inside the Andriod bodies so they aren’t the hive mind that Constellation is, this specific one realizes what issues that Constellation has at some point and does not follow orders, ending up getting destroyed but not fully cause the star soul wasn’t affected, and lucent can rebuild them
uh yeah sorry for yapping so much goodness and I have more but I can yap later
yay if you read all of that and if you have questions feel free to ask I’ll try to answer to the best of my ability this is just a little part of my story I’ve been wanting to post for quite some time
I hope this all makes sense 💔
oh also I think what inspired me a lot for this story would be like deltarune undertale and off I really like those games and if I could make a game of this story it would be VERY much like that they’re so fun
(I also have thoughts about like a version for my story with an evil route mahaha)
At first, Wally struggles to name the feeling he has for you. He just knows that this feeling is nice, and he wants to be around you more.
He starts to sit beside you more often and tries to include you in everything he does.
He even calls you at night just to hear your voice.
He seems to be more attentive now, too! He remembers a tiny thing you mentioned last month, brings you small gifts that remind him of you, and asks you more questions about yourself.
And, yeah, he stares a bit more than usual and studies your expressions.
He thinks he really likes your smile and the way you squint your eyes when you look happy.
Other people realize first that he has a thing for you. Especially Barnaby! Julie and Sally tease him about it, too, meanwhile, Wally just looks at them, confused. "...What do you mean? In love? Me?"
One of them has to explain to him about different kinds of love until he realizes, "Oh. So this feeling has a name."
His confessions would be a private thing between you two.
While you are hanging out with him, alone, he just stares at you for a moment before he says something like, "I think I love you. You are my favorite person, and I like being near you the most. Barnaby said this means I have a crush on you."
He says this very matter-of-factly, too.
If you react positively, he would definitely be more eager to spend time together, and try out "couples stuff" like holding hands, having date nights, and kissing you on the cheek.
He's a bit awkward at the beginning, though.
If you say that the feelings are not mutual, however, he would look a bit down but would accept it nonetheless.
He would say something like, "Oh. I see...Can we still be friends, though?"
He might spend a few days alone with Home until he feels a bit better. It's his first time experiencing heartbreak, you see!
❤️🌺JULIE JOYFUL🌺❤️
Julie is very impulsive, energetic, and driven by her emotions. This means she's the kind of person who definitely would confess once she realizes she's in love with you.
She would be very obvious, too. And everyone would notice it immediately, even Wally!
She would want to spend all her time with you, drag you into games, call you a cutie, bring you flowers, pull you by your hand everywhere, and get louder and more excitable around you.
She wants to impress you, you know?
She's very tuned with her emotions and knows that what she feels is love, even if she's a bit chaotic about it.
The confession itself probably wouldn't be perfectly planned, though.
She isn't the type of person who has the patience to sit down and prepare a careful speech. It would likely happen because she got too excited to keep it in anymore.
She would probably blurt it out mid-conversation while Frank slams his palm to his head like, "Stupid, Julie! You were supposed to confess when you two were alone while—"
Julie is too pumped to listen to his friend, though, and just word vomits at you, "WAIT! I know this is sudden and all, but I think I'm in love with you. No! I am 100% sure that I am. Because you are so fun, and pretty, and funny, and I just love to play with you, and you are so smart, and like, I think we would make a great couple, and—"
She's laughing, kicking her feet, and covering her face during all that, spinning in circles and demanding an answer immediately right after because she just can't handle the suspense!
If you return her feelings, she would be over the moon and just start spinning you around and drown you in kisses.
Once at home, she would scream into her pillow, draw hearts everywhere, and would just exhaust herself to sleep.
The next couple of days would be spent with her running face-first into walls because you smiled at her across the street. She trips and falls a lot during that honeymoon phase! Barnaby finds it hilarious, of course.
She would make the relationship feel fun and alive all the time.
One week anniversary, one month anniversary, six-month anniversary, birthdays, Valentine's Day, date nights, pajama parties, dinner parties, gifts, movie nights, games...she plans it all!
If you rejected her, though? Oh, God... Julie would definitely take it harder than Wally would.
She would cry openly, dramatically flop herself from furniture to furniture, blowing her nose so loud you would think her brain is gonna fall out, and keep asking, "Why not? What's wrong with me? Is it because of something I did? Come on, tell me! Am I unlovable or something?!"
She tries to distract herself but fails miserably. Barnaby, Franky, and Sally have to team up to even get her out of the room to get a bit of sunlight. Even Poppy goes every day to cook her something to eat, or the poor girl will just starve herself to the grave!
She does become quieter for a while, of course, and even avoids you, but thanks to the help of the other neighbors, she bounces back in no time!
And, of course, she still wants to stay friends with you! No hard feelings, okay?!
🪲📚FRANK FRANKLY📚🪲
It takes him a long time to realize that he has fallen for you.
And even then, he's still very reluctant and awkward about it.
He wants to "make sure" that he is really in love with you, so he tries to spend more time with you to "analyze" his own feelings.
He's usually very blunt and rational, so this new territory makes him surprisingly messy, and he does not like that.
He reads a ton of books about love, relationships, and emotions during this time. He compares the information he gets with his own experiences, in hopes of "solving" this problem. How can he tell you anything if even he himself isn't sure what's happening with him? That would be unfair to you!
He asks Julie and the others hypothetical questions like "How do you know if you have fallen for someone? Let's say you are in love, what would you do? What does it mean to fancy someone? What signs would you show while in love?" without actually naming you.
It doesn't take long for Julie, Barnaby, and Howdy to figure out that he has a crush on you, of course.
He starts to hover nearby you more often and brings you small, thoughtful things like flowers and books, or any little trinkets that remind him of you.
He invites you to have a cup of tea with him and attend to his garden for a bit of flower gazing. He has some interesting bugs visiting with the coming of spring as well!
He makes room for you in his daily routine and gets out of his way to help you with chores as well.
Barnaby teases him to hell and back for this. He gets more ittirable around the subject of romance because of this, and not even Julie can pry his mouth open about his crush.
He paces around his room a lot at night, adjusts his bow the whole time, and argues with himself. It's hard to come to a conclusion when he is on both sides of the argument, however.
Once he concludes that he is in love with you, he prepares a script on how he wants to confess to you and rehearses it for weeks.
Even then, the confession is still not as smooth and romantic as he would have wanted, and this frustrates him.
He would probably say something like this, "I enjoy your company considerably more than I do most people's. Statistically speaking, you occupy my thoughts with concerning frequency as well. Which, frankly, is becoming difficult to ignore. And considering the fact that my heart flutters when I see you, I think I could say that I may have caught some feelings for you, if you don't mind my saying."
He gets tense after his confession and patiently waits for your answer while avoiding eye contact. He fiddles with his hands, too.
If you accept his love, he would be a bit surprised but happy. And would offer to have a "dating period" to see if you two are really compatible or not.
He would be very attentive and remember small details about you. He even has a small journal where he keeps track of every "little fact" he learned.
He has no problem arranging date nights and walking you back home every time. His favorite activity is to sit with you side by side and read, though, and discuss the book later.
He's not opposed to wearing "couples-clothing" if you are so inclined. He actually likes it too, even if he pouts :)
He loves to go to picnics with you, too.
Expect a lot of personal notes, reminders around the house, and complaining as well.
If you don't return his feelings, however, his brain would visibly short-circuit for a moment, but then he would take the rejection with grace and probably even apologize for throwing this at you without considering how much this would put you in a hard spot.
For a while, he would avoid you because he didn't want to make things awkward for you, and it would take a lot of convincing that you guys could still be friends even after his little "mess up".
🌈☀️SALLY STARLET☀️🌈
Sally would realize her feelings fairly quickly, and since she's a very expressive and emotionally outward person, would want to tell you how she feels as quickly as possible.
She finds reasons to touch you all the time. Grabbing your hand, pulling you into dances, dramatically collapsing onto your arms during rehearsals, making sure you have a leading role alongside her...
She would absolutely romanticize every little moment as much as she could! Every time you come face-to-face is a "fateful encounter," and each play you meet is a "destined reunion," and whenever you leave to go back home, she can't help but say it's a "heartbreaking separation that both of you will have to go through."
This is her way of testing the waters, actually.
Through theatrics, like acting out romance scenes and pretending to flirt "for the performance," she tries to figure out if you like her too.
If she senses mutual feelings, then she would escalate fast and quickly get all of her friends to plan out a public, dramatic, and emotional love confession.
Of course, she would make the most theatrical confession ever as well! After all, she lives for the drama.
She actually finds the idea of being in love exciting rather than something frightening. The possibility of getting rejected doesn't even cross her mind.
Every detail is planned to the dot, and the whole neighborhood is in on it!
It's almost like a stage production, really.
The confession would definitely have a musical number where she confesses her undying love for you while Julie, Barnaby, and Wally are backup dancers.
A lot of balloons and flower petals would be involved as well.
She would probably use a Shakespearean speech while saying something like, "Oh, my dear, you've been the leading role in every marvelous little thought I've had! Just your gaze makes my heart flutter, and it turns out I've adored you dreadfully for quite some time now. Kiss me, before I perish from yearning!"
She would throw herself from one piece of furniture to another like Julie, clutch her chest as if she's really in agony, get on her knees, and somehow surround you with props that seem to come directly from the Baroque era with incredible lightning, too.
How did you even end up in a dress? You have no idea. All you know is that one second you were in overalls that were covered in paint, and the second you had this incredible gown with Sally in a matching suit.
If you return her feelings, she would be insufferably affectionate, of course.
The next half a year would be full of romantic plays, calling you extravagant pet names, demanding kisses before curtain calls, sudden dance numbers and songs, and acting like the two of you are the stars of an ongoing comedy-romance show.
She's definitely needy and soaks up all the attention you give to her.
But what if you rejected her? Well, then she would probably try to recover the situation by trying to laugh it off and deny everything. "It was all part of the act! A rehearsal! For the next play of mine, you know?! And you did it perfectly..!"
There is no way she would admit out loud that she's kinda heartbroken, so she would sulk privately afterward.
⚽🥏BARNABY B. BEAGLE🥏⚽
He would realize his feelings only when he notices that he started to prioritize making you laugh more than others.
Just a single giggle would make his insides feel like mush, you know?
He would start to make inside jokes that only you and he would understand.
He gets unusually attentive to your feelings. Why are you so silent today? Why are you so distant? Did something happen? He wants to know why and what he can do to help.
He finds that he's less "performative" and more himself when he's with you as well.
He would spend more time with you, or around you, "just because."
He would first try to test your feelings indirectly before he even thinks of confessing. "Hypothetically, if someone really liked you and wanted to be with you...what kind of traits would you want them to have? Did you ever fall in love? What kind of dates would you like?"
He tries to be more affectionate with you. More hugs, fist bumps, arms around the shoulders, and all that...
He knows he's screwed when he even thinks about you before going to bed.
He would write jokes specifically for you.
He would NOT do a quiet, serious confession however. It would most likely start as a joke. “Hey, I got a serious announcement! I’ve diagnosed myself with… liking you. Very advanced case, I'm afraid.”
If you just roll your eyes and think he's not being serious, he would suddenly panic and go, “No, wait, that’s not— I mean, I do, but I also don’t— okay, I definitely do. I 100% do like you.”
He would probably get visibly flustered once he realizes he can’t fully joke his way out of it. Especially so, if he actually wants to be with you.
The tone would shift into something surprisingly sincere, "I ain't really good with this love stuff, but...I think you're really neat."
He would absolutely avoid eye contact and keep moving around, adjusting his hat, pacing left and right, his tail shaking.
If you accept his confession, he would try to joke again and get close to you, blabbering about all the "amazing things" you could do together.
If you refuse, he would probably try to play it as a prank, and be like, "Hahaha! I can't believe you actually fell for that. You are so sweet!"
He would still joke around, make pranks, and go around annoying everyone, but you would still be able to tell the distance between you, even when he refuses that there is any bad blood between you two.
🥧🐔POPPY PARTRIDGE🐔🥧
She would first think she's just extra worried about you, rather than think that it's love.
She’d start overthinking every small interaction she had with you. Replaying conversations, panicking over whether she sounded “too awkward” or “not helpful enough," and, oh my God, how embarrassing it was...!
She’d feel unusually motivated to bake or knit specifically for you, and obsess over making it perfect.
She’d become noticeably more flustered around you. She stutters, flaps her wings, and forgets what she says to you mid-sentence, due to how stressed out she is!
She’d worry constantly about you. Did you eat? Did you sleep well? Did you remember to turn off your stove?
Eventually, she’d realise the pattern and that she's actually in love with you, and not just worried about you as a friend.
This, of course, would cause her to panic even more. Because what do you mean she's in love?! Since when? Is she sure this is love and not something else? You guys are friends! She doesn't want to ruin that by opening her beak!
There is no way in God's green earth she would be able to confess without someone's help. She's far too scared of getting rejected and embarrassed. (Maybe Julie could help?)
She would try to give you hints by baking your favorite food "just because," prepare small care packages, and invite you over for every little thing to hang out together.
She really hopes that you share the same feelings for her and confess to her instead.
And if she did confess, it would be by accident. Something like, “I just… I really like having you here, more than I should, I think. You're really nice, and great, and I'm just so—"
If you do admit that you love her, too, she would start blabbering and quickly say that she loves you, too, before you think that she might refuse you.
If you refuse her, she would just think she misread everything, and get really embarrassed, and think how she "made you uncomfortable" now. How can she face you? She should probably move out! It will just be too awkward for both of you.
If you don't notice anything at all, well...she's just happy to have you by her side, even as a friend.
🐛🍎HOWDY PILLAR🍎🐛
At first, he’d interpret his feelings as “good business,” thanks to a strong customer loyalty.
He’d notice he’s prioritising one customer/neighbour, aka you, over profit without meaning after a while, however.
He starts giving you “discounts” and even a few freebies that no other neighbor gets.
He catches himself looking forward to your visits more than any sale or deal.
He starts “over-servicing” you in a way that’s clearly beyond normal shopkeeper behavior, and even helps you carry your bags back home.
He feels bothered when you don’t visit, but tries to call it “an inventory concern."
He saves his best items or jokes specifically for you.
At first, he tries to shrug these feelings off as nothing but silly things. He isn't used to getting thrown off his game like this, you see.
It bugs him that he thinks about you even when he is not at the shop.
He starts saving things “just in case you might like it.”
He feels mildly irritated when others take up your attention, too.
He even gets "limited edition" items, just for you!
He sometimes even gives you things for free, saying, “This isn’t for sale. It’s yours. I just… kept it aside.” And this boggles everyone!
Would he confess? I think so, yes. But it would be more like a business offer than a real love confession.
He would say something like, “I’ve got a standing offer! Best stock, best jokes, and top priority service… exclusively for you. I like you more than I like cash, it seems, haha!"
If you agree to go on a date, he would instantly get into "overproviding mode" and get you even more stuff. Barnaby is jealous!
He builds a routine around you. Waking up early to join you for breakfast before work, opening items for you, leaving his job early a few times a week for your dates....
If you don't share the same feelings as him, he would be a bit down but would understand it. “Ah. Demand mismatch, I see..."
He would still question if his "deal" was unclear, or if the timing was wrong or not. What should he have done better for you to like him in return?
He tries to be the same shopkeeper to make sure you don't go to another grocery to do your business, but even then, you can see he makes less spontaneous jokes, looks less energetic, and even goes around over-organizing shelves that don't need organizing just to avoid your gaze.
You see, he just puts some distance between you two. A polite, customer-service voice, but no longer "saving things" for you specifically.
If you try to talk to him about it, he just shrugs it off and smiles, saying, “It wasn't a viable arrangement. Still, you are a valued customer!”
✉️📮EDDIE DEAR📮✉️
It starts with him noticing small things about you since you get mail/packages so often.
He honestly remembers more of those little things (your handwriting, the way you put a heart instead of dots on some letters, that you like to doodle on your letters sometimes) than he does your name at first.
He begins adding small extras to your mail like stickers, posters, and magazines that he thinks you might like.
He starts to fix broken things like a sideways mailbox around your garden, thinking, “I’ll just fix that for them real quick. I already know how to do that anyway."
He prioritizes your deliveries over others without realizing it at first.
He likes that talking with you becomes a part of his daily routine, and actually enjoys the conversations he has with you.
He wouldn't realize what he feels is love at first sight since he's so bad at naming feelings overall.
He just thinks he's being a good mailman and a friend.
When it comes to you, his forgetfulness seems to go away, too.
He would be a bit confused because of it. He would think, “Why does this feel different from helping everyone else?”
I think he would confess, but not directly. He would prepare a handmade envelope that he keeps redoing to make sure it's "perfect" and sends you poems, love letters, and a few thoughtful messages anonymously.
He wants to see what your reaction would be, so he can gain enough courage to actually face you.
You're smarter than that, however, and would figure out it's the mailman who has a crush on you pretty quickly.
His first reaction would be to be both overwhelmed and relieved. He's also both happy and shaking so bad it looks like he might burst into tears at any moment.
If you share the same feelings, he would actually cry and would start leaving more small gifts in your mailbox.
He loves to arrange date nights with you, but you have to remind him of birthdays and anniversaries and such even now!
He becomes extra careful with deliveries to you specifically.
He would pick flowers on the way and give some every morning.
He would even be less anxious and more grounded around you!
If you do reject him, he would be down immediately, and a bit embarrassed too.
He might even try to play it off and say something like, “Oh. I must have delivered that wrong…! T-that was meant for someone else! I'm sorry!”
After that, he feels more self-conscious and keeps over-checking himself constantly.
He would also be more timid and silent around you.
He would still deliver your mail, of course! But he tries to put some distance between you so both you and he are more comfortable.
You still see from your window the way he hesitates and takes a moment to calm down before reaching your door, however.
