object worldbuilding :)

wait is this an object bio bio :0 collecting things about my current hyperfixation ♥ 17M

i wonder how rusting works in object show stuff

i like to think it's some kind of paralysis / numbness wherever the rust is.

metal objects have to do routines n' stuff to make sure they don't rust, like a skincare routine but your lungs would be paralyzed and you'd die if you don't do it

[objectworldbuildinglol]

object movie where the protagonist slowly rusts away n misleads those around them into thinking they can save them so after the events of the movie everything's good until the end where they lie outside in the rain or snow or smth and the next day someone finds their lifeless husk

SPOILERS FOR ONE:

That sort of is like Moldy (forgot real name) in One but with mold

[objectworldbuildinglol]

i've never had an original idea in my life have i

SPECIES SPOTLIGHT SHORTS: ALGEBRALIEN TRIVIA

- Baby Algebraliens are called numberlings. This applies whether they’re integers or variables. As juveniles, Algebraliens have darker pelts than they have as adults. They start to lighten as they approach adulthood. They grow up disproportionately quickly compared to their seemingly infinite lifespans, reaching adulthood at around 18 to 20 years of age.

- While most of the time, all Algebraliens prefer to walk in a bipedal stance, lankier individuals such as Four are capable of switching to quadrupedal movement whenever they deem necessary.

- The skin of an Algebralien is quite stretchy—enough that they’re usually able to shrug off bites from attackers. Usually. This, along with their internal structure being rather…non-Euclidean, makes them seem very “squishy” aside from the horns of some individuals. The horns are even squishy on some specimens, behaving more like a non-Newtonian fluid—hardening upon impacts but squishy if squeezed gently. Because of this, punching an Algebralien in the horns if they have horns is…very much not recommended. You will break every bone in your hand and probably at least half of your arm as well.

- Armless Algebraliens were actually fairly common at one point, until around 4000 or so years ago. They were known to always have heightened telekinetic powers as a way to compensate for their lack of arms. Nowadays, only One remains, having drained many of her own kin of power by force.

i want to try a little something

fill in this form about limbs please ^^

Survey on Limbs in Object Shows

This is a form to see how people perceive limblessness among objects in the OSC. None of these are required questions - if you want you can

[objectworldbuildinglol]

you guys know percentages have to add up to 100% right

some of you lot are getting scarily close to the actual percentages

[5tark1tty]

i hc that objects dont have biological gender & they based gender roles & all that jazz off of voices or like some trait that only objects can sense idkkk man

[objectworldbuildinglol]

this and this and this even

[objectworldbuildinglol]

googly eyes would be infinitely more whimsy in the object world

[objectworldbuildinglol]

glasses are a pretty common sight in the object world. So what if 👀👀 They were insecure 👀👀👀

The easiest thing I can compare this to is foreheads irl. like this guy was probably bullied in year 7 lol

(source)

and oj from object invasion needs to call his barber or glass blower or whatever they have in the object world immediately because wtf is that lineup 😔

Not an actual theory but a silly concept that I liked

[objectworldbuildinglol]

hold on. doesn't this suggest objects and algebraliens have a common ancestor? It does seem that objects are less conventionally biological than algebraliens. Objects are also probably extremophiles: they can survive in environments which are low-oxygen, (see: coiny in that cash reg in bfdia 10 I think) or very very toxic (see: ruby's sisters in bfdia 23). They also don't need food since price tag just can't eat (and again, coiny in bfdia 10).

The point is, objects seem to be more rudimentary creatures if they are able to survive in so many places. So they may just be less-evolved versions of algebraliens. Algebraliens also probably have largely normal organs instead of organspace. And since I'm pretty sure objects are an interstellar species (as I said in my last space post) the early ancestors of algebraliens were probably the first group of objects to leave earth to go to the algebralien planet. They arrived, and due to some project hail mary-esque time dilation shenanigans they were able to evolve in the blink of an eye relative to earth.

Figure 1: Stacking is symbolic of trust and bonding

Objects demonstrate attachments in many different ways (yet another example of how diverse they can be lol.) For instance, stacking is a universally-recognised display of attachment among objects. It’s a sign of mutual trust, bonding or allyship – the bottom supports the top since they trust them, while the top trusts the bottom to keep supporting them and stop them from falling. Of course, not all objects display attachments the same way (see Figure 2), but stacking is the most recognised as a symbol of fondness and affection.

The fifth image in Figure 1 is also a good illustration of how attachment must be mutual: stacking here doesn’t work because the top (Grassy) trusts the bottom (Pencil) to protect and support them. This feeling is not reciprocated; hence why there’s conflict.

[objectworldbuildinglol]

For these crowd shots I’m pretty sure announcer was like “OK everybody get stacking we need to look like we like each other here” 😭

[items-objects-gizmos]

Object medical care must be kinda crowdsourced. Sure, you got specialists in limb injuries and organs and stuff (i fully subscribe to organspace btw), but there are so many object types that damage to the object part of the body must be like, yeah im stopping by the florist one of my leaves is turning brown and i dont know why. Gotta visit the glassblower to patch up this crack on my rim. Theres this one bookbinder that works magic on ripped pages, you should give them a shot. Three objects get in a car crash and all of them have to go to completely different places for medical care after the EMTs confirm none of them are concussed. You go into any creative industry and suddenly theres gonna be like, a few objects a month coming in for body repair/expertise. Imagining signs on places run by young creatives that arent as confident in their skills like “BODY REPAIRS NOT OFFERED HERE” and then the experienced ones are like “yeah we have an upcharge and you need to sign off on some forms, but of course we can do work on your body” and the pharmacies just have, like, some local anesthetic that you can get otc if you need to visit a creative for repairs

[objectworldbuildinglol]

from what i hear this sounds like the american medical system if it was about a quintillion times worse

[dairy-godmother]

So like

I may be stupid

But does being a ball with no arms automatically make you a genius?

Is that how that works

Like hear meowt for a second because there’s more to it.

I feel like in bfdi similar objects have similar traits. But also limb placement counts too, because 8 and 9 ball are NOT geniuses/scientists/inventors. They’re also both limbless.

It could also be that GB, TB, and BB are all SPORTS balls.

And snowball isn’t a genius either, but he has four arms and isn’t fully round

Eggy is on the fence. She’s not a sports ball and I don’t really know enough about her to say she falls in the genius archetype the others do.

Another object type that fits into a pattern (kinda?) is David and Dora. It’s pretty obvious but they both basically fit into the same tropes. That’s honestly why I don’t think the flower is a human theory makes a lot of sense because she doesn’t fit into the archetype of saying one catch phrase lol. I think roboty could be a good contender for the trope though because he always beepin. Maybe it hints at him being more than a robot? Eh it’s a stretch.

I could also see plant characters being somewhat villainous (or at least thought of as villainous) as an archetype that’s starting to emerge with flower and leafy. Grassy and Tree don’t really fit though

Maybe it’s because those two are PLANTS and the other two are plant PARTS. Leaves are only PARTS of plants and flowers are just reproductive organs of plants.

You could also see the archetype of two-legged grey characters being very silly all the time

“Shmiggledy! …shmaggledy.”

(Nickel, Rocky, and Naily)

I guess ruby and her sisters also count because they’re literally all interchangeable lmao

Idk if Firey or Firey Jr. share many personality traits but if they do that’d be pretty cool ig

Now that I think about it, there IS an archetype in OTHER object shows that Firey Jr. fits into. (And ice cube when she gets smol in tpot)

It’s the silly little guy with stick limbs (NO VISIBLE HANDS OR FEET) who is weirdly self aware and also REALLY cool lol. Sketchpad and Clippy from TNM, Firey Jr, words with friends tile.

I guess David and Dora could fit that trope too lol

Also I think writing utensils like pencil, pen, and marker could have similarities that are on the tip of my tongue but I can’t remember lol

Anyways I used the two legged ball is a genius trope to create Clown Nose who follows it, but since they aren’t a sports ball I can’t really say I’m 100% accurate with that, but it’s fine.

Anyways I’m curious if anyone else noticed this.

Might I suggest an addendum to this.

This is very true when it comes to one object stacking on top of another, but when multiple objects attempt to stack on top of each other, things often get awkward, ie stacking on top of puffball as well as stacking on top of snowball. Both occurrences led to destruction. The stack will always eventually fall because of the imbalance of not only trust, but also communication. A stack with more than two objects above the base will almost always kick out other objects until only one or two objects remain, and if the base is unstable like snowball during the hide and seek episode, the entire stack will end up falling until only the base remains.

Also i wish Puffball and Fries were in the original figure. The specific form of communication and trust when they make their stack in tpot 22 is distinctly unique. Their stack not only represents trust, but also shared values and goals. They’re working together at a seemingly impossible goal but they’re still trying their best, because they believe in each other and they believe that they can truly escape the situation if they work together, despite not really having a relationship like that in the past. Being a stack wasn’t just a representation of their bond, but also the beginning of their relationship in the first place

I love this analysis of object shows!! Very fun.

i forgot pufffries 💔💔💔 man what am i doing,,,,

but yesyesYES that so right :D
