Y'all for real please do these. Even if you're certain your posture doesn't suck. One day you will wake up with impinged shoulder pain like I did and let me tell you it fucking HURTS. Do these exercises even just once a week and it will make such a difference. Especially my fellow creatives out there, stop shrimping over your work and go do these right now. RIGHT NOW.
This cute little critter isn’t AI-generated. Meet the hairy horned dorid (Acanthodoris atrogriseata.). Found in intertidal habitats in the Northern Pacific, including Washington state’s Puget Sound, this species grows about 1.1 in (2.7 cm) long. The hairy horned dorid is a nudibranch—and it’s just one of the more than 2,000 known species of these soft-bodied marine molluscs!
sometimes my life nowadays feels like it's the end credits of a show. tada, you've done your thing and faced the horrors, now you and your friends finally get your happy ending. credits roll
except life keeps going after that and i don't know what to do. the dread comes around again. old bad feelings come back. there's going to be a fucking season 2 isn't it
He plays around with a CMYK name and colorscheme, where the colors are in his eyes and clothes, and then the black ink is applied to a crow. He has a tail stub but no tail feathers, and only 3 clawed toes. I'm not sure when he'd be around but he would probably abstract at some point due to a degradation of his abilities. If I draw him again he's just gonna be around for shitposts, though.
An aspiring actor, before joining the digital circus. He was honestly pretty good at it, but was still early in his career and struggling to find consistent work. This resulted in him winding up homeless. He discovered the headset and put it on when he was searching for a place to rest for the night.
He often plays into all of Caine's adventures even if he thinks they are stupid, to scratch that actor itch. But even he has limits. Trapped in a world with no 'real' audience, he struggles a lot with his self-esteem and is quietly pretty self-deprecating. His father was convinced he'd be a homeless fuck-up and that wrecks him cause now in a way, that is something factual and true.
Competitive and can get a bit too into the roles or scenarios for adventures, and need help snapping out of it.
Like Kinger making the butterfly and Jax having keys, Kymchi figured out a sort of gimmick for himself in the way of imitating voices of other characters. There's a crackling walkie-talkie quality to his impressions, however, so a listening ear can identify it's him if they pay attention.
He inflates into a literal borb-sphere when holding his breath and has qualities of a beach ball. Jax calls it the borbloon and punted him across the main circus area. If he holds his breath too long it can take him a while to fully deflate.
Eyes and inside of mouth are usually a default Cyan, but will shift to yellow, magenta, and other shades depending on if he is doing an impression, what role he is acting, or even his moods. He normally doesn't have teeth but can get sharp dino chompers for emphasis in the right situations.
Egg shaped head.
Thrill-seeking, but terrified of heights (he cannot fly).
Like Jax he'll disrupt adventures if he gets too bored or finds them a bit tooooo much. It may turn into a sort of tom and jerry contest on who can crash it first (as well as who can crash it the worst).
He wants to convince Caine to do an adventure that parodies Jurassic Park just so he can be a big dinosaur and squish Jax into a pancake specifically.
Tends to be quiet and is otherwise overall decent, but can be a bit insensitive. He cares at a casual level but is mentally wrapped up in his own problems.
Might've tried to imitate NPC voices to get passed the swear filter - for some reason, he cannot for the life of him replicate Bubbles' voice.
i do have a tendency to sprinkle some of my own traits and experiences into my characters, so skelezone is a bit of that. though since there's already ragatha in the circus, instead of focusing on my people pleasing i focused more on the low empathy aspect instead LOL
Skelezone would have been a fresh high school graduate around the time she got transported to the digital circus. Due to issues with crippling executive dysfunction and general struggles with which direction to take her life in, she would have been taking a gap year from studying at her parents' home. They wouldn't be very pleased but oh well, what can they do.
Probably would sell some art commissions and generally navigate various fandom spaces, since she'd spend most of her days sitting in front of the computer. That is, if she's not napping for the fourth time that day.
She'd struggle a lot with taking care of herself due to the previously mentioned executive dysfunction, often neglecting hygiene and her diet in favour of eating ready-made foods. Partially leading to the corpse-like design for her digital circus avatar. I think she'd really enjoy the aspect of the circus that allows her to completely skip these kinds of activites and not stress about them.
She would have also been an avid enjoyer of cats and have one back in the real world. It would be one of the few things that could get her out of her slumps, so that she could try properly caring for it.
The cat on her shirt seems to be actually alive and is animated, separately from Skelezone's outward expressions. If she holds her breath, nothing really happens to her but the cat on her shirt does begin to suffocate and can "die" for roughly 10 minutes.
While it wouldn't very directly affect her in the circus at least in the beginning, Skelezone does struggle with feeling somewhat inhuman (hence her monstrous design once again) due to her low empathy. She yearns for connection and wants to be perceived well by people, but her knowledge of what is appropriate and "empathetic" towards others had been mostly learned in her late teenage years after many mistakes were already made. Most of the things she does are driven by the desire of being needed, if not wanted, and she feels ashamed for it. Especially when shown kindness that to her seems "genuine" than her own.
Rejection and becoming a social outcast, or someone irredeemable, is one of her worst fears.
She'd be similarly paranoid to Ragatha about not being hated by the other circus inhabitants, and especially feel guilty around her. Probably also competetive to an extent, feeling like she's falling behind and lacking compared to how caring she is whenever she'd see Ragatha supporting others. Generally Skelezone would also be really prone to jealousy over certain people if she'd see them interacting with others, wishing it was her instead. Especially if it's someone I could see her potentially admiring, like for example Zooble or again Ragatha.
Her admiration of people is quite obsessive, adjusting most of her opinions and attitude to try her best to appease them and keep them around. Sometimes even if those things directly conflict with her well-being or values. I think she'd also be very prone to herd mentality and social pressures, especially when she feels insecure about her position within the group.
Also the fixed time for her headphones respawning is 1 hour, so she's unable to take her beloved 4 hour long naps lest she gets woken up by some manner of Caine's horror music blasting through them. She thinks Caine sucks.
i love that. i love seeing people put themselves in their characters in general. for me it's always been a good way to cope and look at things from a different perspective, with a little more sympathy for myself LOL. even if it is heartbreaking at times, but who doesn't love a little angst am i right fellas

I seriously just wanna play board games with my friends… Like I want everyone I know to rent a lake house together and spend the middle of the day swimming and the evenings playing a bunch of board games. That’s all

my everlasting wish is the ability to take a shower or brush my teeth without pacing the bathroom back and forth for an hour like a contemplative monk pondering the existence of god when in fact my head is completely and utterly empty and devoid of logical thought
