"How or why any of this is happening is beyond me, but I guess I'll humor you, whoever it is I talk to. As far as I know I've been staying away from shady websites, so how you've managed to send me these messages is still unknown to me."

Some general informations you might wanna know:
This blog belongs to @drtrig
This blog is based on my AU, which I refer to as Research Manic
Rodger will speak like "this", as to not confused him with anyone else in some cases when other characters are talking. When anyone mentions the askers, they will do it like this
Not sure if I made this clear enough but the asks are coming from Rodger's computer lol
Before sending an ask, make it:
Appropriate, no NSFW or NSFL content (even if slightly suggestive)
Respectful, don't be overly spiteful
Does not contain ship content, I don't mind shippers, however ships make me uncomfortable
Any asks that break any of these rules will be ignored and deleted
Also, please do not send asks/DMs asking why I haven't answered your ask, I can be very slow and those do not help

The principal reason of why is because I've since then left the Dandy's World fandom, it has been obvious to me for a long time that this community was not meant for me (someone who is repulsed to romance and likes to focus on gameplay and lore rather than specific characters most of the time), and that soon enough I will lose interest in this game and fandom, which I did over time
Another reason why is because of the pressure i constantly put on myself. Working on drawings is hard for me, since I, for some reason, frequently get actual genuine headaches while drawing, and while this blog was normally not meant to only have art posts, I pressured myself to, in fear that text posts would simply not be enough for people
As to what this blog will become, it will remain dead. Permanantly. Unless I pick up interest in this game and community again, which for the time being, I do not
If you still want to interact with me, you can! Just not on this blog. You can send asks over to my main blog, @drtrig, for any questions or sillyness you may wanna share
But as for now, goodbye, have a good one, I'll see you later
"I really, really hope you do not plan on actually eating that substance, but I guess I'll humor you. Ichor, in its rawest, purest form, would probably taste of nothing."
"However, the Ichor's form is...unstable, uncertain, unguaranteed. It takes shape of people's thoughts, their deepest desires. It's how we, Toons, were created, we exist as thoughtforms, someone else's dreams. Though, that process takes a lot of time and effort, which is why we are made of 'fake' Ichor, Ichor mixed with multiple chemicals that made the process much easier. But I digress, basically, if you were to think about it hard enough, you could turn Ichor into whatever food item you'd want."
(hii trig! Have u gotten any better? :D I was wondering if u accept fanart or anything for ur AU.....😀)
Hallo!! Yes, I have gotten better, and am now out of the hospital!! The lack of posting just comes from me taking a small break, also I would love fanart!! Go ahead if you wanna make some, Id love to see it
Do you have a comfort person? Like someone you’d go to for comfort when you’re feeling down?
"Rodger, I think you should listen to yourself sometimes. You always tell me to listen to you, but you don't even seem to apply your own tips."
"...Yes, I know..."
"Then why don't you do so? Don't you remember what you told me the other day?"
"'One day you'll be sitting in the sun with those you love, and you'll realize: Life isn't that bad.' Maybe it's time you focus less on documenting those who are too far to call and instead focus more and those you have here with you."
"I used to. These memories serve nothing now. I feel too empty to need comfort these days."
Boop very appreciated! As it turns out I may be able to get out of the hospital later today or tomorrow, Im unsure though so dont take my words for it (read: if im wrong then dont burn me at the stake) I am already planning some of the future posts, so stay tuned for that :3

"I wish I could answer you. He's been missing for weeks now, if not months...I don't know. I'm losing the track of time. He got...left behind on a run, didn't get to the elevator in time. It's likely he wanders the lower floors but...we've stopped sending people into long runs."
"The world beneath us is crumbling, the center was built on an immense Ichor pocket underground for easier extraction, only now that the site's gotten old, its foundations have started to weaken and fall in what we call the 'Void Sea', one of the biggest Ichor puddles out there. Only, the Void Sea seems to rise day by day, and with this amount of Ichor in one place, its effects get stronger and can affect people even if they are at far distance from the puddle. To put it simply: the deeper you go, the more likely you are to twist, even without getting injured. Trying to go down the lower floors is just a glorified death mission. Even if it means...having to leave a friend behind."
Heyyyyy! Nice to talk to you! Don’t die, okay? Nobody wants that. Do you need anything? I might be able to contact someone else. Expect to see me again!
-🃏
"Do not worry, stranger, dying is not something I plan on doing anytime soon."
"As for your proposal, I do not have any requests at the moment, at least, probably not ones you could complete. Though, it is nice to know there will be some familiar faces here and there."
"Ah...I expected you to be curious about it. If you asked me some months ago, I wouldn't have answered. But with everything that's happened...you need to know. Everybody does."
"Before I truly answer your question...I need to give you some background information. We, Toons, exist as beings formed from thoughts and Ichor. When we were first created, our minds were more similar to those of animals in a circus. We were taught from the beginning of our creation to the very end of the Center's existance how to act in situations, like tricks one would teach a dog. Our thoughts were more similar to instincts rather than the coherent ones I assume you know. I call this early stage 'the Fog'."
"I have not much memory from this early stage. It's more of a feeling than a clear image, per se. Back on topic, after the Center closed down, Dandy had started experimenting with its energy source, and what we are made of: Ichor. Why he started only then is still something I don't quite understand, my best guess is that he must've been reading some of the files in the staff only rooms. I did find a classified file in his room, a report from the mining team that used to extract Ichor directly from underground, complaining about overlapping thoughts after being exposed to the substance for too long."
"I am still trying to fit the pieces together, but from what I can understand, Dandy must have found out about the Ichor's properties. According to my own studies, Ichor seems to have the ability to give both physical and mental mutations to those who are exposed to it. Ichor is how we, Toons, gained counsciousness. It gave us the capability to think, to feel, and to not only that but also to know that we are thinking, something that we considered a passing familiarity during our Fog."
"I think he wanted to share that new knowledge too, though, at the time, he didn't quite know how much of an impact Ichor could have on one's mind."
"When a person is exposed to too much Ichor, their thoughts will begin to overlap. Their body will start growing, mutating into something unrecognizable. One of the most notable example of this is Astro, most likely the first ever Toon to twist. From my personal studies, the amount of stimuli and information Astro has to intake every second is enough to take up the entire capacity of 107.5 fully developed human brains."
"Dandy, from this...more than unfortunate discovery, must have snapped. His best friend, put in purgatory from his own hands. He had told us how frustrated he was from having been abandoned here, cursed to be forgotten like we were nothing. He let the infection spread. If he was going to be left behind, then he might as well be the worst version of himself. To at least be remembered as something, anything."
"I do not. As a matter of fact, he's been missing for quite a while now, I suspect he ran away after the whole operation started getting more dangerous."
"We can't forgive, but we still try to understand. His actions are unforgivable but understandable. It came from a place of anger and injustice, we all feel that way too, some more than others. We were left behind and cursed to be forgotten like every other being in existance, it was only a matter of time until one of us snapped."
What are your thoughts on the other toons? Are there any toons you cared for more than others?
If you're willing to share, of course
"The others Toons are nice enough, I guess...I haven't had the occasion to talk to them much recently, I've been too busy, and it's not like I want to anyways...I don't know. I feel alone in the crowds."
"As for your other question, I'd rather not answer. I've left my personal attachments to the side to focus on my cases. I won't let my feelings make me get ahead of myself again."
How did you get the cracks on the glass? Does the patch really help to restore your face?
"I got it on a run. An...accident. I let my guard down at the wrong moment. As for the patch, its purpose isn't to heal the crack, more so to keep it from getting worse. Talking of which, I might need a replacement, the one I have on currently is wearing down..."
before you ask what the hell that is it's a book series where you investigate murders
"I do not need such ways of entertainment when I am already plenty occupied."
"I've been quite busy with cases lately. Call me a workaholic all you want, but fake mysteries like these just don't scratch that itch the same way real ones do."
