Some info about us:
These are role-play blogs and are not associated with nor do we represent The Mechanisms. We're all here to have fun!
DO NOT mention or point us out to anyone involved in or related to The Mechanisms band. If they happen upon these blogs of their own will, that's their problem.
The main tags we use are #ask the mechs and #ask the mechanisms, really only fanart that is also canon to the blogs and our intro posts get posted in the main mechs tag.
We have a list of all the blogs in our group. More are welcome to join, there's not really any restrictions on that. Check with the original blog if you're looking to make a blog of someone's romantic partner or duplicate though.
If you're looking for a simpler way to get caught up on "the lore" and bits we have going on, you can read the log entries [mobile version] we used to write. They are currently not being written anymore.
Please if you have any problems with us, just block us. Asking us to tag a trigger or something similar is completely fine. If you need to direct your complaints somewhere, do not send them to the blog runner, please send an ask to this blog.
people suck. Some of the mechs accts were just hit with the repulsive asks. Seeing how closely related the fandoms are to each other, I decided that it is very likely that it will come to tma very soon.
I plead that anyone who sees this shuts their asks for the time being. I do not want any of you being subjected to that.
I will tag a few of you to hopefully spread the word.

For Jonny
♡ He’s a steampunk space pirate who plays harmonica, and does a mean evil chant -> https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=qtamEcKfDAg
♡ He’s a murderous evil space pirate who also does songs and tragedies and plays harmonica. He does a mean evil chant.
♡ Loser poser cowboy. He got arrested for grievous misuse of rodents one time. He made up a backstory that's a ripoff of his crewmate's. He's the first mate of the Aurora, but insists he's the captain (he's wrong). He did a post patricidal harmonica solo. He probably pushed the woman who made him immortal out of the spaceship (multiple times) (unsuccessfully). His best line is probably this one: "She gave me an interesting prescription - let’s see if I can remember. Oh yeah, half an ounce of lead to be injected directly into the brain. And it wasn’t a prescription for me.”
♡ Post patricide harmonica solo do i need to say more
♡ GUGHUGHGUHUGHGG HGUGHGUHGUH look at him hes such a little guy
♡ He's an immortal space pirate in a band with a bunch of other immortal space pirates who sing about tragedies they've witnessed. He insists he's the captain of these space pirates but everyone else says he's the first mate. He's a little feral (and by a little I mean a lot. Extremely feral) and commits atrocities and acts of massive violence for fun. He can excuse mass murder but he draws the line at sleeping-beauty-esque kissing someone to wake her up. His actual singing is also really really good, often he's singing in character as someone else (various characters from the tragedies he sings about) and he manages to voice act AND sing at the same time which is so so impressive. Also he's blorbo and I'm looking at you eith big autistic eyes please please pleeeeease vote for him
♡ My favorite tiny asshole
♡ He killed his father and sometimes gets angsty about it. He is a member of a fictional space pirate crew called the Mechanisms, who rove around space looking for "fun, violence, adventure, and violence". He is the first mate of the crew, although he insists that he is the captain (only to be corrected by the rest of his crew as well as every fan). He is also the lead singer of the band and plays the lead role in all of their albums. Also, almost the entirety of the fandom along with the rest of his crew think that he pushed the lesbian space vampire doctor that made all of them immortal out of an airlock.

For Rui
✰ he's so silly and is literally just the human :3 emoticon. he likes to blow things up, but he does genuinely really care about his friends!! for a large amount of his childhood, he had none, so the ones he has now are obviously going to be very important! also very, VERY autistic coded i love him he's such a silly guy

For The Toy Soldier
✰ It used to not have a voice but one day listened to a very beautiful singer called Angel and decided to steal their voice for itself.
✰ It’s not even real in the piece of media it’s in! Of course it should win a contest of singers who aren’t real!
✰ It stole it's voice from an angel.
✰ Same band as raphaella and ashes, also a space pirate. Is a sentient toy soldier, with the only human part of it being its voice. Canonically stole its voice from someone that may or may not have been an angel. Will follow any order its given and holds no loyalty but still sticks around with the rest of the band even when they keep chasing it away because they're friends <333
✰ It's so. It's so!!!!!!!!!! Little wooden man who follows any order given to it and seems to enjoy that but also has a backstory that makes me so :sobbing_puddle:. It has a really great voice that it stole from someone who it loved but then he ditched it for a real person. And it stole his voicebox and now it sings in his voice. It's so silly and it makes me so sad but it also makes me so happy and it. It <33333 Also I use it/its pronouns cause of it
✰ Silly! Also really good range and a pretty voice :)
✰ It is a silly little guy (gender neutral). It is part of a fictional space pirate crew and the first mate/lead singer of the band hates it so much and is constantly trying to get rid of it but it just keeps coming back. It canonically stole the voice of an angel (that's how it got its voice) and is just pretending to be real while the rest of its immortal space pirate crew (known as the Mechanisms) are still alive. It also fought in World War I but on the moon and switched which side it was fighting on multiple times. Also its voice is amazing and I love it so much.

For Christine
♡ A woman whose voice is so impressive that it's the entire purpose of the show. Hitting notes that are far beyond most singers' range. In the longest-running show on Broadway. If anyone deserves to win this, it's Christine.
♡ she's an icon and a legend (also they will just cast Sierra Boggess for any character who needs to have a canonically beautiful voice, she also played Ariel on Broadway) (Mod: oh thats pretty cool!! also i dont think the picture i chose is of this actor im sorry </3)

For Mayoi
✰ just listen to his voice. listen. it's so beautiful.
✰ (mayoi is the purple one in the mv) anw. mayois voice is INSANE and i wish i could put his solo song here instead (The title is "Raise the Velvet" go look it up if you havent already) but god shigematsu chiharus range is crazy and when i heard this song for the first time i fell out of my chair and couldnt stop smiling for hours. stan mayoi ayase or die by my blade
✰ the link above is to his solo but he has sooo many good lines in full unit songs. for example his growl in "believe 4 leaves" makes me INSANE like the range this guy has is incredible. and also his lines in "noir neige" sound so... lonely. he truly embodies the whole "grim reaper" theme of that song. and his voice is so gentle in "moratorium wings" like it genuinely makes me tear up. he can do it all <3 also its not just his singing, but he's also always doing The Most when he's dancing like. everyone else is stiff or just following the motions and meanwhile there he is just arching his back for no reason other than he wanted to. and i respect that <3 anyway i love this guy he's my silly little rabbit

For Gunpowder Tim
✰ A space pirate/war criminal who can sing and is probably gay. What more do you want?
✰ Lunarcide and trans people are cool. Pretty wet cat character with pretty voice.
✰ Pretty voice....... His voice (and also his him) is so fucking pretty oh my god. As a character he's also great, his best friend died in a war and he went on a killing spree and then blew up the moon about it, and in doing so burned his eyes out. His eyes got replaced with new metal eyes that also had the fun little side effect of immortality. From there, he goes on to sing about tragedies with a crew of other immortal space pirates. At one point he sings the part of Loki (who uses she/her exclusively) and this made me about 3 times more gnc
✰ Blew up the moon.
✰ He blew up the moon. Also he is so Gender™. He is a member or the fictional space pirate crew known as the Mechanisms and is their gunner. In addition to singing, he also plays the guitar in the band. (He plays Loki in the album The Bifrost Incident, which is what is linked in the link with his canon singing voice)

For KAITO
♡ I love him your honour. Seriously he's probably the 2nd most iconic Vocaloid after Miku (and hands down without a doubt the most iconic MALE Vocaloid). He's been around since almost the very beginning of Vocaloid, years longer than Miku has, and he still has a lot of dedicated fans like myself. He's just a silly little guy who loves singing and ice cream.
♡ Kaito is one of the most versatile Vocaloids. When tuned properly he can sound near human-like and has such a pretty voice but can make the funniest sounds. He can also sing in lower registers (I think that's the term). It's why I've loved him for the past 15 years. Naoto refers to him as his son and I think that's cute too.
♡ OKAY HE'S MY FAVORITE VOCALOID I LOVE HIM SO MUCH AND HE GETS SO LITTLE ATTENTION PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE HE DESERVES EVERYTHING HE MEANS THE WORLD TO ME he makes me so happy I have a lil keychain of him on my phone he's my best friend he's always with me and I love making him sing with my computer (also named my computer after him) PEOPLE DON'T LIKE HIS VOICE BUT THEY DON'T KNOW ANYTHING OKAY HIS VOICE IS SO PRETTY TO ME VOTE FOR HIM HE CAN BE ANYTHING YOU WANT but he's my best friend ^^

This poll is a celebration of fandom and fandom history; we're aware that there are certain issues with many of the listed pairings and sources, but they are a part of that history. Please do not take this as an endorsement, and refrain from harassment.
She’s had a “gift” of obedience placed on her, and her quest is to figure out how to get rid of it. I love her
he’s under a curse that makes her obey any order given to her. She met her Prince Charming (Char) when they kids, and they became friends. Her stepsisters found out about her curse while they were at boarding school, and because of that (and some things they made her do) she ran away to try and find the fairy that cursed her. When she does, the fairy says that she doesn’t do magic anymore, because she realized her gifts were actually curses, and refuses to remove it. Ella goes back, and is eventually demoted from “lord’s daughter” to “maid”. She still writes letters to Char (currently in a foreign kingdom, but before that, when he came to try and talk to her, her sister forbid her from leaving her room so she would have all his attention), but eventually stops and even writes a fake letter from her sister to convince him that she never cared/doesn’t care about him, because she realized it would be too dangerous for them to be together; with her curse, she could easily be made to hurt or kill him. Flash forward, and Char returns home. The king throws balls, and she goes, because even if she can’t be with or let him know who she is, she just wants to see him again. Char is drawn to her, and for a lot of the three balls, they’re together. At the end, her stepsister gets jealous, and right as Char proposes (because Ella, despite having to lie about her identity, is the most honest person at the ball and a friend already), she grabs her mask, revealing her identity. Char reaches her home before she can leave, and there’s a whole scene where he finds out she’s a scullery maid, that the letter was a lie, and says that she doesn’t have to be Ella if she doesn’t want to be, and she says she’s not, and he asks if she loves him, and she does– and then it’s all ruined because he accidentally orders her to marry him, and then her stepmother tells her to, and all the while she’s fighting the curse, because she doesn’t want to endanger him and their nation, and doesn’t want her step family to be rich and powerful, and finally– she says no. She gets so excited to say no, to refuse, that she didn’t even fully realize she broke the curse until Mandy (her fairy godmother) tells her. Anyway, they all lived happily ever after. Ella is one of my favorite Cinderellas ever and I really hope I did a good job of explaining her and what her story is about (it’s been a while since I’ve read the book)
I was so enraptured with this book as a kid, it had such an impact on my young mind. Got me into fantasy.
BEST CINDERELLA!!! please use the picture from the book cover and not the movie 🙏
She breaks her curse spell in such a magnificent way. Like yes she embodies the whole “kindness” and “courageous” characteristics that Cinderellas are known for, but for her she’s been forced to be obedient as well. And while she thinks can rise above anything she soon learns she will just hurt so many more people that way. She chose to be self-sacrificing because it was the one way she could express her love that wouldn’t harm anyone (then). But! But! She also ends up getting to be selfish! And that is also a great kindness! To herself and to those whom love her and she loves in return. All that after she breaks the curse.
She can mimic languages. :) She refused to marry the love of her life and thus broke her curse. :) She fell in love via letters. :) She lied to the royal family that orange carriages are very popular in a nearby city.
brave, smart, a linguist, a nerd, she evolves steadily and beautifully throughout the book, with a sharp voice that never stops being distinctive and fun to hang with.
complex character coool as fuck premise and also. the nostalgia of it all
Cinders:
She spent decades searching every moon and planet trying to find her wife (Rose), who was kidnapped on their wedding day. Eventually, she found Rose, and they embraced, only for Rose to die in Cinder’s arms. And so Cinder killed the king who had kidnapped Rose by punching through his chest and into his heart.
And then Cinder got a somewhat happy ending, in which she met Rose’s clone who had Rose’s memories.
What if Cinderella was a Sci-Fi lesbian? Well here she is. She has a whole love song about searching the stars for her girlfriend after their wedding was interrupted and she was taken away. She spends years searching only to when she finally finds and embraces her watch her be shot. Cinders is so devastated by this that she plunges her wedding ring into the heart of the man who shot her love killing him.
Lesbian space princess who elopes with the terrifying soldier who was previously conquering her planet and spends decades searching for her when they’re separated. Listen to her song https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=6w9V-gMgBF4
I think the way she punches the evil king through the heart as revenge for her wife is pretty neat.
She’s a revolutionary married to a woman, what’s not to love? From Cinders’ Song: “ When I was a little girl, my mother always told me / “Someday your prince will come, my love” / But as I grew, I knew it was a princess who would hold me”.
her girlfriend got cloned and most of said clones were brutally slaughtered in war and she searched for her girlfriend all throughout the galaxy and when they were finally reunited on the battlefield her girlfriend died. and a clone of her girlfriend who due to technical errors retained her memories, so does that count as the same girlfriend? theseus’s girlfriend? anyway vote for cinders she’s been through hell
Lesbian!! Has to search for her lost love Rose with her glass wedding ring that changes color when its near its partner!! Gets to embrace Rose once again for one final moment before the villain kills Rose right in front of her!! So Cinders kills him in return!! And she’s left as (almost) the only surviving main character from her own album but!! She is eventually reunited with a clone of Rose, and while they cannot have a truly ‘happy ever after’ together they are the ones graced with the closest thing to it
SPACE LESBIANS (she’s in love with Rose Red, who gets kidnapped on their wedding day and Cinders searches the galaxy to find her, waiting for her white ring to turn crimson, indicating that its twin was near) She took her name from the ashes of her burning planet <3 She also killed Old King Cole >:)
shes a tragic lesbian and killed a violent dictator shes literally the best
shes gay shes traumatized she dates both rose red and sleeping beauty. badass space wanderer looking for her wife
Her wife Rose gets kidnapped on their wedding day and Cinders spend the next thirty years looking for her. She finds her (:D) and then Rose dies (D:) and then Cinders kills the guy who killed Rose (girlboss).
shes a lesbian. she lost her wife, Rose (yes, as in sleeping beauty) the day they got married bc she was kidnapped. she spent 20 YEARS looking for her. as soon as she found her wife, Rose DIED IN HER ARMS. Cinders has gone through Too Much to lose this poll
(Her info from the wiki) the Princess of a planet burnt by King Cole’s army, after it is ceded by her stepmother. She is imprisoned, meets Rose and plans to marry her. She is released by her godmother for the wedding, then flees when the attack happens, spending thirty years looking for Rose. Her half of the wedding ring will light up when she finds Rose.
“When I was a little girl, my mother always told me 'Someday your prince will come, my love’ But as I grew, I knew it was a princess who would hold me I looked to the stars for you, my love” She’s lesbian Cinderella IN SPACE. She fell in love with her wife in prison and they ran away to have a secret marriage but the empire kidnapped Rose on their wedding night and Cinders had to leave her behind. She searches for Rose for decades with the glass ring that guides her to its twin on her wife’s finger. She finally reunites with her love after Rose rips three supersoldiers to pieces with her bare hands (hot) but then then the evil king kills Rose so Cinders fucking punches through his heart. And then a clone of Rose (who is also lesbian Sleeping Beauty IN SPACE) finds her cradling her wife’s body and they have a happy reunion(?) and maybe they didn’t have a happy ending BUT WHAT IF THEY HAD EACH OTHER? HUH? AAAAAH
she’s everything. she’s a princess from a long since conquered planet. she was imprisoned to make a statement of the brutal reign of old king cole. she met her wife while she was in prison, a beautiful brutal soldier covered in scars from battles. cinders and rose fell in love, so cinders’ godmother in white broke her out of jail so rose and cinders could be together. they were going to be married, except that OLD KING COLE intervened and kidnapped rose to make her the genetic base of his unholy army. so cinders spends THIRTY YEARS searching the galaxies for her love (and sings a really cool song about it called “Cinders’ Song”) until finally she arrives during the final battle just in time to see old king cole SHOOT ROSE DEAD. so cinders punches the king so hard (with her wedding ring) that he just Crumples Into Dust. the end! (no we do not talk about the fiction.)
lesbian, for one, and for two i don’t really care i just think it’d be cool if she got in/if she made it past the first round
no one seems to have linked cinder’s song yet, so here [Link]
better yet, listen to the whole album too, for context and also what comes after. it slaps and also tragedy it’s such a good album suhc a good band too
Someone already sent the song as propaganda, so I will provide SPOILER propaganda. [Click link to see spoilers.]
"Ok so. Abt 10 mins long song, completely standalone with no relation to any other albums. Based on frankenstein. AND IT FUCKS. Retelling of frankenstein where the monster is an ai created by victoria frankenstein and it basically destroys a whole planet bc victoria wouldn't let it create others of its kind, leaving it lonely and refusing to acknowledge its existence as more than just her crowning achievement, something that brings her glory but should never be seen as anything close to a human being. But the ai keeps victoria alive, killing and reviving her over and over again in hopes that one day she'll agree to let it create more of itself, even though she keeps refusing every time. The song itself shows one iteration of that cycle, with victoria waking up, recalling her ai's actions, refusing its demands and dying only to be revived again at the end of the song, with the cycle continuing on. Its very much a 'first lines of the song are the same as the last lines' scenario and its great. Im submitting it over other mechs songs bc you don't really need any previous context to understand it and its severly underrated and i love it."
Drift Away (Steven Universe)
You keep on turning pages/For people who don’t care/People who don’t care about you/And still it takes you ages/To see that no one’s there/See that no one’s there/Everyone’s gone on without you
"Being stuck in one place while people, well, drift away and leave you behind. Realizing that relationships don’t always last forever. But waiting and hoping that, eventually, you’ll come back to each other, before realizing that’s not gonna happen."

Frankelda x Herneval - Los sustos ocultos de Frankelda / Frankelda's book of spooks
They are the custest. Herneval has known Francisca ever since they were both children and saw how much potential she had, he even helped and supported her writing career when no one else did. Francisca followed Herneval and became her main story writer to help his kingdom become more powerful. She also loves Herneval all the same even if he is cursed to look like an old mossy gremlin book instead of the handsome harpy prince she met all those years ago. Herneval is protective of Francisca and tries to protect her even from herself. They both are willing to sacrifice themselves for each other, Herneval is willing to spend an eternity cursed if that means he can spend it with Francisca, and Francisca is willing to lose her liberty if that means Herneval isn't alone.

So they are all aliens to each other. They are also like canon found family, and are immortal. I love this ship because the nine of them deserve happiness and some love because they are doomed to have heartache in their lives. They spend so much time together and will die alone and while they are together I think they should kiss.

their backstories both end with them murdering their father figure and then literally burning all of their ties to their former homes. its narratively satisfying. of course theyd be together.
#ASHES/JONNY MY EVERYTHING#good lord okay#they're best firneds. they were there for eachother since the beginning#jonny's a freak and ahses has to deal with jonny's bullshit & is also really the only one who knows how to put up with her bullshit#they're so awful but they really truly care so much about eachother#they're smoking buddies#ashes & jonny taking a moment and sitting together for a few minutes without saying a word#smoke break#they just Understand eachother do you feel me. they just Get eachother please (tags via @dropitdoeeyes)

hypothetically how would one join your mechanisms askblog group? I recently set up a marius askblog @doctorbaronmariusvonraum
You'd absolutely be welcome to join, as is anyone else who starts an ask-blog! if you're on discord, we do use a server to keep track of things behind the scenes, and one of us can message you a link to it. Other than that, all it takes to join the group is reaching out.
(Also, hope you're having fun with the Marius blog-- it seems like it from an outside perspective!)
