At least until YouTube gets its sh* together, I'll be posting T.O.P. chapter audios and related content (song covers, mainly) to Glomble.

I copied the URL from my profile on the site, but even if this link just takes you to the Glomble main page, you can find my profile from there. Look for Vaporwing, and you should see a page like this:

I have every single chapter audio that I've completed so far posted there, plus the Good Little Girl (Boy) 'cover' and the It's a Dangerous Game cover.

I also now have a Ko-fi!

Man, comparing the original illustration I made for chapter 39 to this new one is WILD!

Ruin's portion of the illustration is only slightly different, but Eclipse's portion is just...All I'll say right now is, not only have I improved in poses and expressions over the two years since the original illustration, but I'm also less afraid to make Eclipse look genuinely furious.

I'm gonna feel like garbage if I give the after-story another update rather than updating Red Rogues or I1 Phoenix, but...there's something I've been holding onto that I would like to finally be able to post, and it feels somewhat fitting to do it this month. After all, it does relate to someone embracing their identity. (Yeah, I know, I should have waited to post that last chapter this month, but it just completely slipped my mind to do that.)

Just recorded everything for chapter 50

Just 8 more chapters to record

Absolutely wild

Drawing an enraged theater kid while listening to (mostly upbeat) classic Vocaloid is certainly an experience.

[cosmic-kinglet]

God, I'm so f*ng pathetic. I can't believe I got an actual blush hearing that, "Open the door, Moon!" because, without the voice filter, it would have just been early-era Eclipse. The f* is wrong with me?

[cosmic-kinglet]

"Useless, imputent"

God, the voice (minus filter) PLUS the insults are pure V1 Eclipse

Don't think for a SECOND I forgot what today is!

Happy birthday to the crabby angsty corn chip that I love so dearly!

Wanting to get Eclipse to a point where I can have him see Solar trying not to regress and decide to teasingly coax him into letting it happen.

Just like, "*hand draped over head* Oh dear...such a shame that I don't have a sweet little kitty to love on."

Solar looks at him, the needs peeking through.

"Now what's that I see there? Is that a kitty trying to hide from me?"

Solar ducks his head down, feeling himself losing the fight.

"I think it is~!" Eclipse approaches, holding his hand out. "Come on...It's alright. Let me take care of you."

Solar looks back at him with watery eyes.

"Aaaw, there he is...Come here."

Solar moves slowly closer to Eclipse. He plops his face down onto Eclipse's shoulder.

Eclipse embraces him. "That's it...It's okay. You know I'll always take care of my kitty."

Watching Twisted again and crying over how sweet the actual relationship is and having the crying doubled by imaging Titan and Eclipse

[cosmic-kinglet]

I've now written a few different instances of Eclipse holding onto Titan in some way, when he's suddenly pulled or dragged to some amount because Titan started moving without any warning. Not because he's being inconsiderate, necessarily; the thought just sincerely doesn't occur to him.

I just love the idea that Titan will do little things that seem rude or inconsiderate, even though it's not at all his intention. He'll end up interrupting or talking over someone because he just doesn't have a sense of conversational flow to tell him when it's his turn to speak. He ends up dragging or pulling Eclipse, at least a little bit, because he just has a place or direction he wants to go, and he just goes, genuinely not realizing that he's pulling Eclipse with him. He often either doesn't emote in his speech at all, or he over-corrects in an attempt to show more emotion and just ends up sounding aggressive.

He's a complete social train wreck, and I love him.

Surprise! The desire to write won out!

New After-story chapter!

Or, should I say...'neo' After-story chapter? X3c

[cosmic-kinglet]

Just realized I put completely accidental foreshadowing into T.O.P.

When Titan told Earth and Sun about his distrust of Solar and brought them into his plans, he told them not to say anything about it to Moon.

Sun responded by saying he would just stay out of things, like usual. In other words, that he would be staying back in the shadows, going unnoticed.

Exactly how he grabbed the club from the floor after Titan threw it down and got behind Solar in order to strike. Being in the shadows, unnoticed.

[cosmic-kinglet]

I guess the same way I can predict sh* that's going to happen in the shows while just writing fanfiction...

AND THEN MANAGE TO COMPLETELY F* UP MY PREDICTIONS WHEN ACTUALLY TRYING TO PREDICT SH*

NO, I WILL NEVER MOVE PAST THAT F*ING BINGO

[imbadatthinkinginnames]

Apollo really be messing around with ya' isn't he?

[cosmic-kinglet]

Dude reaches out to me from the f*ing ether to worship him, and then pulls this sh*.

Alright, so...that painful thought I had...

[cosmic-kinglet]

Was thinking about this again.

The two are just being flirty and cute, like usual. Titan wants to get Eclipse flustered with some cheesy romantic gesture. He takes Eclipse's hand. He brings the back of Eclipse's hand to his mouth.

Eclipse draws back immediately, horrified wide eyes flashing. His 'breaths' quicken, almost to the point of hyperventilating. He seems to be staring through Titan, as if not fully seeing him there anymore.

Titan's expression drops instantly. He cups Eclipse's face. "Hey. Hey, what's wrong? Eclipse?"

Eclipse shuts his eyes and gives his head a small shake. Yet, this barely seems to calm him, just enough to be able to reply. "N-nothing. Nothing. I...I'm sorry."

Titan guides Eclipse's stare into his own. "Eclipse. Don't lie to me. What happened just then?"

Eclipse is silent for a brief time. His 'breaths' only starting to calm down and his body still shaking. When he finds his voice, he can only muster, "S-something Solar used to do." Then, the adrenaline pushes him further. "I-I didn't even ask him to! He- he would just...do it, a-and I just, I-I-I-"

Titan pulls Eclipse close against him. "Hey. Hey. Breathe. Just breathe, Eclipse. It's okay. I'm sorry I made you think about that. I mean, I know I had no way of knowing, but...I'm still sorry I hurt you."

Eclipse's 'breathing' finally begins to settle. He pulls himself even further into Titan's hold, adding his own tight grip.
