That one person still waiting for LoS 5, point and laugh

She/they, aroace. This is my side blog, my main is a sky blog under the user @kat-idk

[kats-other-stuff]

introductory post (welcome to my hell)

Hello. I don’t know why you’re here. Unless you’re from the Failboat fandom, that is, in which case, hey, it’s me, that one Legacy of the Scythe fan who lives on your tag, point and laugh. If you somehow got here from my Sky blog, what the actual fuck are you doing here? Leave before I infect you too, and remember: you didn’t see anything. (/j)

Anyways, important stuff: I use she/they pronouns, and this blog is just for my Failboat fandom stuff but I’m also a part of the Sky: Children of the Light fandom and I play Arknights. Occasionally Homestuck takes over my brain too so there’s that. more Failboat fandom stuff:

I’ve been stuck in the purgatory we call the Failboat YouTube channel for 9 years now. Send help. As mentioned, Legacy of the Scythe is my favorite series, and no it is not just because of a certain diamond scythe wielding emo (it totally is actually) but I am a lore enthusiast for Failboat lore in general. You can talk to me about Failtopia, LoS, the ACNH lore, or any other piece of the Failboat Cinematic Universe I haven’t mentioned. I don’t bite, I prommy.

What I’m working on at the moment:

✧ The (unofficial) Failboat Lore Recap

✧ Sky: CotL project (high priority in theory)

◇ goofing around on here

◇ the ask blog What ask blog? There is no ask blog. Like seriously. I killed it. Wait why do I have this bullet point then

[kats-other-stuff]

there sure are a lot of lgbtqia+ folk in the failboat lore community huh

[calscompositions]

Did you really think I would stop at scoring just ONE Failboat fangame?

This has been announced for about a month now, but I haven’t made any mention of it here yet, so I’m proud to announce that I’m officially composing for Lia: Dimensional Rebirth, a Failboat fangame by CitraDreamPainter centering mostly around the Failtopia series! This metroidvania follows Lia, the not-so-Burning Leo, and their companion Janken, aka the Miitopia RPS bot, as they unravel a dark plot in a post-season 2 Failtopia world.

There’s a lot to look forward to in this game, but for now, this is all I can share. Hope you enjoy this little preview while Citra and the rest of the team keep cooking!

they say my ideas, are simple

they don’t mean to kirb my stream storage

[spook-skeley]

Something something so I gotta

Cons are cool. @silly-lily-1337 made the scythe and gave me the hat

More under cut

Had these guys with me

Was wearing these, right wrist is collision crew, left is just random stuff

The scythe also had this at the top, 2 beads per collision crew member in order of introduction in collision

There was also a cosplay contest that I did not enter BUT they asked who hadn't been to one hosted by them and they had people who hadn't raise their hand and they took 4 volunteers (2 adults 2 kids) and uhhh

I think like a cartoon character

Oh also it was a dance contest that i volunteered for so there is a video of me in a rapper failboat cosplay doing the cotton eye joe.

[silly-lily-1337]

THE Shrimp of all time!! 🎀🎤

I love her design so much bro I was BLOWN AWAY when I saw her cutscene!!

Failtopia (S1 & S2) | grids.fun

Fill in the Failtopia (S1 & S2) grid on grids.fun.

hi!! i made a cool grid thing for Failtopia seasons 1 & 2! saw this going around in other fandom spaces and might as well put my hat in the ring.

just as a note, the main casts of seasons 1 & 2 along with hank, spamtang, and petuyawn are included. if i missed your fav i think you should be able to add in your own custom images on the site.

i didn't include anyone from big money because tomodachi life is still an ongoing series rn and i'm too lazy to consistenly update this tbh.

enjoy to your hearts content!!! if there's any concerns with anything just let me know i'll see if i can update the list :)

[kats-other-stuff]

did this a few days ago

If the world is against Big Bill I am against the world.

[rosetheocto]

I know this isn’t ART art, but I’ve decided to do a little something in Miitopia!! I’m currently recreating Failboat’s Big Money Island Miis (as of Episode 3) in the game!! I haven’t seen anyone else attempt to do this yet, and I’ve been having a blast doing all the makeup for the characters!! :D

sorry for the bad quality, I’d get the actual screenshots of the Miis but my Switch isn’t letting me… I’m gonna update this list more as Dan creates and develops the Miis in his Tomodachi Life series!! If anyone wants my access code, it’s X1DFL6 :]

AND BEFORE PEOPLE ASK: no, I didn’t forget Grandma!! she’s just. the one I’m least prepared to work on. cuz of all the wrinkles… Grandma Mii will come soon I promise :P

Let your mutuals send you a fandom they aren’t in, but you are, and you’ll answer what you think their favorite character, least favorite character and favorite plot would be if they ever would see/read it.

[kats-other-stuff]

Big Money is… Wincar?

(I hope I capitalized that right.)

ANYWAYS, BEFORE YOU CALL ME STUPID, HEAR ME OUT. This theory of mine is absolute crack, and not even I believe it very strongly. But it’s not outright disproven, and also I think it would be funny. So, again, humor me for a second.

In Shrimp’s cutscene, we see her sign with a company called Impenetrable Entertainment. This is the frame showing this event:

Kind of hard to ignore the dark blue diamond stuck to that contract. As most of you know, both that color and that object are closely associated with Wincar, and to hammer it in further, “Impenetrable” -> word describing extreme durability -> diamonds are known to be really really ridiculously hard, the hardest substance on the planet. Really weak evidence, but this is not a very serious theory.

Okay, now how does this connect to Big Money?

Well.. why would you create an island like Big Money Island? Who would want to live on an island where one unlucky rock paper scissors match can cost you your quality of life? These people are also mostly already successful, too.. so it’s not like they’re desperate.

Gathering a bunch of well known and/or successful folks from many fields and walks of life in a specific location with a crazy gimmick incorporated into their everyday kind of sounds exactly like the setup for a reality tv show, a popular form of entertainment.

Some other musings:

Big Money’s birthday is Failboat’s birthday right? Wincar shares a birthday with Failboat ‘cause they’re twins. The birthdate also puts c!Fail on the table.. but if Big Money was c!Fail, wouldn’t Shrimp or Friend have acknowledged that? On the contrary, Wincar hasn’t canonically interacted with any of the major Failtopia characters, so it’s possible they wouldn’t know him at all.

The whole “winner” thing. IT’S IN HIS NAME.

A common pattern is most of the characters are just after their prime (or maybe still in it I dunno), their well earned victory after years of work and tribulations. You know who hasn’t gotten a W in 14 irl years?

^ With his last onscreen victory being a fucking ROCK PAPER SCISSORS MATCH? THE GIMMICK OF THE ISLAND???

We don’t know who s3’s antagonist will be, if there is one. Big Money is a good candidate, since they are responsible for all the rock paper scissors and social caste chicanery. Wouldn’t it be poetic for the first antagonist in the lore (timeline wise it’s actually the dragons but Wincar is more prominent AND he’s the first one metawise so shush) to also be its last chronologically?

The issues with this theory are, how and when does Wincar set up Impenetrable Entertainment if he is its head? And where the fuck did he get the money for it? Also um. Why would Dan make the guy we see everything through his obscure cringe Minecraft oc from 2012. You also have to make some big leaps in regards to who’s running the island and assume Big Money isn’t a new character. ok that’s it, thank you for coming to my ted talk. wincar in s3 and i give you my soul Daniel Failboat. drops dead from sheer cope

[funthirtythreethirty]

wincar in failtopia s3 is gonna become my "waluigi for smash" I swear.

exhibit a:

it's those damn chairs all over again

[kats-other-stuff]

WINCAR FOR S3 SCREEEEEEEEEEE

LET HIM GET A WIN FOR ONCE!!

[gnomey22]

Organised First Thoughts on Failtopia S3

The Kid:

Wasn't expecting the first Mii/pseudo-protagonist to be a whole new character at all, but I was certainly pleasantly surprised by how much I came around on him! I had no idea where Daniel was going with the scribble-face on a Default Mii, but the talking bomb head really made the character concept come together, a depressed child who just wants to manage the living weapon attached to his face and constantly talking over him. I like the reversal of the Friendlee dynamic where the facial symbiote isn't a subtle corrupting force, it's just an annoying caveat to The Kid's life. He's also aro/ace rep, which is dope! Grandma:

I have not watched one iota of Grandma content before now, so I have no idea what any of the immortal assassin lore is actually about, but disregarding the AI Gimmick roots, I'm really interested in her presence here. She's had most of the best comedic moments already, constantly rambling off and failing to understand her surroundings while still endearing herself to everyone and proving herself a threat in a fight. I like the juxtaposition of the first two characters being a young boy and an old woman, also. And she's polyamorous and bi/pansexual! Eelon:

Very unique to have a main character who's actively designed to be hateable. Past characters like Pirahnyawn may have come across less positively than intended, but are still supposed to be monster-fighting heroes at the end of the day, but in the realm of Big Money Island, where the cast has to fight each other, there's room for actually present antagonists, and Eelon is very effectively set up to be as abhorrent as possible, an ocean landlord who walks anywhere like he owns the place, while rocking the face of a Mario enemy so deformed that it's partially censored, and being a canonically straight man named after Elon Musk. Rancid vibes, perfect for the role of adding stakes Shrimp:

Did not expect a character return aside from C!Fail or Chat, neither of which actually happened, but I'm very glad for this! Shrimp's a great choice to start with, loved by fans and Dan alike, without incredibly complicated lore to get through to understand her deal. Shoutout to SketchySkittles for that cutscene and new character design (and shoutout to Muffinsnakes for the Grandma cutscene, while I'm at it), does a great job at realising the near-unthinkable concept of a 30-year-old Shrimp. Her newfound confidence in her success as "Shark Heart" is very heartwarming, as is her immediate kinship with the oldest cast member once again! Can't wait to see what the fuck happens with her and Eelon, also. Hopefully it's not what I worry it will be.

...However, there is a significant negative factor about Shrimp's return - at least, for me - which I already made a vent post about, so I won't fully reiterate that here, but TLDR: Love that she's bi, don't love that the option to date non-binary people was excluded, and I really hope that wasn't intentional and will be fixed. (Worth noting that all options were selected for Grandma) The Gimmick:

Not the best starting-off point, but I completely see what Dan's trying to do here. I really liked Parkour Civilisation, so I'm sure to be a fan of the capitalism-critiquing-video-game-battle-arena-dystopia one of my favourite creators is cooking up, and the RPS implementation does feel like a nice blend of Miitopia's and Modern Failboat's respective nonsense, and wasn't completely out of the blue either. Of course, the main issue is that Dan isn't familiar with Tomodachi Life and only realised halfway through that it doesn't really function as a vessel for the RPS fights to begin with, and while The Kid VS Grandma near the start of the stream went mostly fine, the Eelon battles to end the stream were a massive slog that even Dan didn't really enjoy, since the game kept trying to redirect the combatants to ignore Dan's ragdolling and ties were way too frequent. Just gotta hold out for that arena, then we can actually get cooking with these fights

[funthirtythreethirty]

ah yes, my favourite video series that takes place in a video game and is centered around a society established upon classism and systemic opression with a twist of turn-based combat. I sure do love parkour civili- I mean big money island

anyways here's my The Kid design
