RT's Miitopia playthrough was great and now it lives in my brain
@miitopiaenjoyer
I will be thinking about Miitopia forever, and honestly, I'm content with that. Gonna post Miitopia stuff here, mostly RTGame Miitopia fanart, maybe some stuff based on my own playthrough.
Fanart for @yinyangle's absolutely incredible fic, "invasive daisies"!! Thinking about these two having a cute domestic life together genuinely makes me ill... Oughhh they're so sweet...
Tried out Yang's Magical John design this time around as well!! Didn't come out quite right (I was convinced he had paws too for some reason) but it turned out cute nonetheless. :)
Plus a bonus sketch with Aster because. I realized it was really silly of me to do art of the Aster fic without including Aster. They're absolutely adorable, I love them. Precious :)
im like rereading all your fics on a steady repeat at the moment to get me through school, at this rate ill have every plot point memorised teehee !!
Awwww, thank you so much!! That's genuinely really touching, I'm wishing you luck with school stuff!! Hang in there, you've got this!! :D
I had a sketch I did of the confession scene in Of Types and Typing I've been neglecting for a while, so I figured that'd be fun to finish up and include with this ask!! I'm happy that my fics have been bringing you some comfort, and I hope you enjoy the art too!! :)
Hey, everyone!! It looks like we've hit a couple of big milestones!! 100 posts and 500 reblogs, wow!! I genuinely never thought I'd hit either of those, but here we are! Thank you all so much for your support over the years, because it genuinely means the world to me. I can't overstate how much joy you've all brought me, and running this blog has been a blast. I'm really happy that you all care about the silly little creatures I draw as much as I do, and I appreciate each and every one of you for being here. :)
Happy 100 posts, happy 500 reblogs, and here's to more good times to come!! :D
is there any reason for all your other chatical john fics being teen rated, but the newest being unrated? whats different?
Hi, Anon!! So, if you read the new chapter you may have already noticed this, but that was completely unintentional and has since been corrected, lmao. Oops. Great question, though, and thanks for pointing it out, because if you hadn't, I DEFINITELY wouldn't have noticed, haha. I appreciate it!! :)
Anyway, I wasn't sure what to include with this ask, so here's a random doodle of The Creatures from a while ago that I colored and shaded recently! Consider it thanks for the assistance!!
I'm glad you caught that, lol. Have a wonderful day/night!! :D
I AM DYING INSTANTLY, I AM DECEASED ON THE CEMENT, THIS IS NOT A DRILL FJFISOFJSOCUFHAOAOJZN!!!!!!! /POS!!!
THANK YOU YANG THEY'RE BEAUTIFUL!! :D :D
This is ABSOLUTELY exactly how that happened!! Brilliant, impeccable, no notes, 10/10!! Thank you so much, this is amazing and I'm going to have a big stupid smile on my face for forever now!! :D
I hope RT plays the new tomodachi life and adds everyone again
Me too!! I've been thinking about that since the game got announced, honestly... We'll see, I suppose!! :)
Even if it's just briefly, seeing everyone again would be REALLY fun. The animation cameo was great for that, and I cherish it immensely (I still get all fuzzy just thinking about it!! The creatures!!), but seeing them in an actual stream would be absolutely wonderful.
Anyway, in honor of the direct, here's a clown Chat!! :D
Thanks for the ask, and have a good day/night!! :)
Designs for an RTMiitopia No I'm Not A Human AU, inspired by @shapezncolourz's super cool art!! :D
Check under the cut for rambling about the individual characters and their roles, plus an extra bit of art!! Be aware that the rambling contains No I'm Not A Human spoilers, though. As for the art, CW for blood, eyes, murder, and decapitation. Very normal times. :)
Okay, so! Time to go on a long rant about every character!! Here's the list of characters and the roles they fill from the No I'm Not A Human cast. Some of them actually fill multiple roles here, since there are a lot less characters in the core RTGame Miitopia cast than there are No I'm Not A Human characters by a pretty significant margin, lol. With that in mind, here they are!
Magical John - Pale Visitor
Chat - Protagonist/Coat Guy
I Want Die - Neighbor
Jefferson - Neighbor's Daughter (or, grandson, in this case!)
Cupcake - Vigilante/Neighbor's Daughter (much like the Vigilante in the game is the Neighbor's brother, Cupcake is IWD's adopted daughter here!)
Dread - Cashier
Gilbert - Runaway Teen (or, child, lol)
Goofy - Bandana Guy
Barackula - Cheerful Guy
Mr. Bean - Foreigner
So, yeah! I definitely switched things around a fair bit for this AU. Admittedly, I Want Die would probably make more sense logically as the protagonist, but my Chatical brain wanted to force those two to interact, lol. But an alternate version of this AU where I Want Die is the protagonist and End Mii takes the place of the Neighbor while Chat's just Coat Guy alone also works!!
Otherwise, I think End Mii could be the Babushka, maybe. Or perhaps she'd take the place of the Ballerina Lady, except instead of a cat, she brings an entire horse? Don't quite know how Mint would work in this AU, lol. But rest assured she's there somewhere! Khadgar could be the prophet, and Von Karma might be the Death Cult leader. :)
Anyway, as for the specifics of the main party's role choices, I'm sure a lot of these are fairly self-explanatory. For instance, Goofy is the Bandana Guy entirely because that's the voice RT happened to give him in his own playthrough, lol. Plus, considering Goofy's whole deal with cleansing the filth of the world and whatnot, it kinda fits! Mr. Bean is the Foreigner because he can only say the word "bean", which is sort of similar to the Foreigner's struggle with not being understood by anyone else in the game if you squint. Barackula is the Cheerful Guy because I feel they're both have similar personalities, being optimistic and flamboyant. Jefferson and Gilbert take the places of the two child characters, with Gilbert being the Teen because he's the more outwardly rebellious of the two.
Dread takes the place of the Cashier because they're both generally very anxious characters, and I thought putting Dread into a role where they're guaranteed to be a visitor would be really interesting! I Want Die got the Neighbor role because I wanted him to be someone important and plot-relevant, since he IS the literal main character, and that was the best role I could think of aside from the protagonist. It does mean he fulfills his namesake though, unfortunately. And Cupcake is generally very associated with violence, considering the great Wooloo massacre that RT had to go through to get her and how much of a heavy hitter she is throughout Miitopia, so making her the bloodthirsty vigilante seemed fitting to me!! If anyone could hold their own out there in the apocalypse, I think it'd be her.
And then, of course, there are the centerpieces of my version of this AU, Chat and Magical John. They got the most important roles because they're my favorites, obviously, lol.
Magical John as the Pale Visitor is also pretty self-explanatory, I think. A lot of people have made the comparison between their voices in RT's playthrough already, plus they have a similarly creepy and offputting vibe. Granted, the Pale Visitor is a lot more outwardly violent, but still! The similarities are there.
Finally, there's Chat. I already explained why they're the protagonist, which is purely because I wanted to force them to deal with Magical John and they're one of my favorites, but they've also got a secondary role as the Coat Guy. Which means that Chat, much like Dread, is a visitor!! I elected to put them in this role because I thought the idea of the protagonist being a visitor was always really fascinating! It's a big theory in the game itself, and although it's not necessarily something I believe, I thought it'd be fun to play into here. Plus, Chat's whole mask situation really parallels Coat Guy's circumstances in the game. A lot of people like to play with the concept of Chat being a sort of eldritch abomination without their mask, and Coat Guy's got a black hole underneath his coat which kills whoever looks at it. So, I figured that combination for characters really worked! Plus, Coat Guy and the in-game Protagonist also have a lot of parallels, considering the themes of loneliness and isolation throughout both of their stories, so I thought those roles would work well in tandem too!! So, that's why Chat goes into those two roles in particular. :)
Of course, there are a lot of other characters throughout both games that I haven't covered here. I haven't thought out anyone else's roles, but if anyone has any ideas for the supporting cast, please let me know!! I'd love to hear everyone else's thoughts on this.
As for some more lore about the world and the characters themselves beyond which roles they play, I imagine in this version of the story, a lot of people start wearing masks to hide their visitor signs. These characters include Jefferson, who started wearing one because of I Want Die's advice, Dread, and Goofy. A lot of people find this behavior suspicious, but it's a common enough phenomenon even among people who aren't visitors that it's not (usually) enough to get someone killed on sight. People who happen to have suspicious traits or don't want to be scrutinized begin hiding their faces after the cataclysm begins. Chat's an exception though; I imagine that they've been wearing a mask for years before the apocalypse even starts. I'd like to think I Want Die comments in the opening scene of the game that they'll fit in more now because other people have started wearing masks as well. :)
I also imagine Magical John is slightly less outwardly violent than the Pale Visitor is, since his goal is still to make friends. That's not to say he doesn't kill people, though, because he DEFINITELY still does, lol. Anyone who he deems to be "unfriendly" (i.e. people who are alone) or anyone who is a serious threat to people who he DOES consider as friends are as good as dead. The soldiers are a good example of this. He'd absolutely still murder the soldiers, and he'd also still display one's head on a stake. But the teenagers might survive, since they're hanging out in a group, even though they're outside.
However, I imagine he'd be a a lot less hostile towards Chat in particular, because they're "best friends". The Pale Visitor in the original game comments that he keeps visiting the Protagonist because he was "chosen", but I think Magical John would do it more because he just likes being around Chat. They might've still been chosen as well, of course, but he'd be bothering them either way. They'd be VERY unhappy to learn that, lol. I think that he'd be generally clingier than the Pale Visitor in the game, and you'd be able to see him doing some horrifying thing or another at the windows nearly every night.
I also think Magical John would be outwardly protective, unlike the Pale Visitor. He would NOT just let Chat wander off with anyone. So, if they attempted to join FEMA, grouped up with von Karma and the death cult, or tried to run away with the Mushroom Man, he'd just murder whoever tried to take them and force them to retreat back into the house. Not fun! They'd need to find some way to get him out of the picture in order to get any of those endings, I guess. Which isn't out of the question, depending on how powerful whatever's under this mask is, but it'd still be a roadblock. That, or they'd need to convince him somehow that those people are "friendly" enough to not deserve to be murdered. But I digress. Because Magical John is so overbearing, this would also mean that in any situation where Chat's life would be threatened, Magical John would prevent them from dying. But this would still lead to a "bad ending", because he'd break into their house afterwards as repayment for saving their life.
Which, I think, is what would happen in this AU's Vigilante Ending.
... Which leads to the bonus art I included! :D
If Cupcake tried to shoot Chat, Magical John would be on her very quickly. She's fast too, though. Cupcake would be able to get a few parting shots in against Chat before going down; one to the stomach, and one to break that suspicious mask they always wear.
It's not enough to kill them. Not yet. But Magical John can't just leave his dear friend to bleed out all alone, now can he?
So, yeah. Bad ending. :)
Plus some extra sketches, just for fun!! Some of these were drawn on the backs of other parts of my sketchbook so ignore the bits where the markers bleed through, lol.
Anyway, thanks for coming to my TEDTalk!! If anyone has any thoughts about my ideas or about their own No I'm Not A Human AUs, please do share!! I'd be fascinated to hear about everyone's takes on this!! :D
another song. for barackula. if you're interested. Yes its also will wood like the other guy but this is tumblr everyone likes ww
Oh, cool!! Thanks for sharing, Yang!! I'm always interested to hear more RTMiitopia coded songs!! :D
As a Tumblr user, I can, in fact, confirm that I ALSO like Will Wood, so you're probably right, lmao.
Anyway, much like Yes, To Err Is Human So Don't Be One, a lot of the vampire lyrics in here are a natural fit for Barackula, which is nice!! It makes it very easy to envision him while listening to it. But it's also got a distinctly different vibe, which is great! Good recommendation, for sure!! :)
My personal favorite lines include "Well maybe I should switch up the style of my mistakes / The hearts are promises I tend to prefer to break" and "Hold my hands, we'll dance the 12-step on my grave / I'd kill the man I am for one more chance to be yours babe / No, I ain't begging, I'm just saying, it's an option"! For the first, I definitely feel like Barackula would have broken a lot of hearts, being a popstar and all. And considering his transformation into a vampire, I think it's fair to say he's switched things up somewhat. But he's clearly still the same man inside, so there's certainly more about himself for Barackula to feel needs changing, if that makes sense! It makes me think he's at a point in his life where he's starting to grow and become a different person, but he's not quite there yet. The second set of lines is just very catchy in general, and I feel like it suits his vibe. Something about making such a big dramatic declaration like that, only to backtrack and say it's only an option... Like, he's more desperate for acceptance than he wants to admit! Hmm! I dunno, it just itches the brain!! All in all, I quite like this one!!
With that being said, this evoked a pretty immediate mental image of Barackula lounging dramatically in a coffin, so here's that!! :)
He's so silly!! <3
Anyway, thanks again for the song recommendation and the ask in general!! I really appreciate it. Have a wonderful day/night!! :D
