Little backstory: I started posting online in 2018. These were some of my first characters. I've been working on this for over a month and I am tired. Uhhhh idk, if you have any questions, leave a comment and I'll get back to you when I am well rested. UPDATE (2/2/2026): - Corrected color palette - Fixed transparency/clipping bugs - Re-drew missing frames

Costume was inspired by Logan’s dress in Promenade but now it’s comfier! It has a hood and also pockets. Who wouldn’t want that? (I may be projecting. It’s my AU, shh). Also inspired by SpiderGwen’s iconic leggings + ballet slippers look in Spiderverse.

Blynk (CN: McKenzie Bleu) is the daughter of another Golden Age superhero. Her mum was part of Forces of Nature with Professor Polarity (CN: Portia Price). Where Prof Polarity has powers of magnetism/electromagnetism, DI#265353 was able to manipulate the pull of gravity on herself and others.

Because of her parentage, young McKenzie was watched carefully for signs of an enhanced ability. While it’s not guaranteed that a child of super(s) will have powers, it does make it more likely than when no known family member has powers (an anomaly). For several years, they thought perhaps the only genetic differentiation was the fact that McKenzie was born with naturally teal hair. Because of the family name, her nickname became Bleu-berry.

The family, including her, thought the only oddity was a penchant for sleep-walking. She would wake up in the living room, or in the garden, though everyone would swear she’d gone to sleep in her bed. She was known to have problems with sleeping already. [[a/n: squinty-eyes at you, Blink my dear]] Since no one observed the movement, no one was just aware that she was blynking out until she woke up a mile away in her school’s art room.

Her power is finicky. When it’s possible to exert full control over destination, the range is very limited. However, she cannot travel long distances consciously, even if she knows the destination very well. The only times she can travel further than her 100-yard range is when the blynks happen outside of conscious decisions, caused by emotional spikes, and she gets sent to an unintended location.

Once, McKenzie was sketching passers-by on the waterfront, not far from a point where she could jump back to HEARTS. She was surprised by Lovely Darling (CN: Danielle Disney) sitting next to her and complimenting her art profusely. She was so flustered, she blynked out on the spot, and found herself on top of a skyscraper about a mile away. Panicked and not wanting to try to jump again until she was calm, she was stuck on the building for an unforeseeable amount of time. Luckily, Reflex (CN: Virgil Skylar) happened to be flying by that area. He gave her a lift back to school, and stayed with her until she was calmer. (He also complimented her art, joking that he promised to find her again if she got lost). Because of the difference in their ages, they didn’t share any classes despite attending HEARTS at the same time, but they remained good friends even after Virgil graduated.

She was not supposed to be involved in the AW fight. Students are never on HATCH calls except for particularly extreme circumstances, and even then they must be at a certain level of training to be put on Blackout. She just happened to be across the harbor when the attack came. Luckily, due to her durability, she sustained no lasting injuries. Unfortunately, The Contortionist’s attacks targeted her wrists and legs. She was hospitalized for recovery, but she was unable to draw for several months, and she considered this much more of a disruption than her immobility.

SolarMAX LiPo 12V Solar Panel Power system ready for release next week. BTW, SolarMAX is designed to positioned independently of SkyWeather or your own 5V system. It uses LoRa radio to transmit voltages, currents and inside temperatures to a LoRa receiver on almost any device. Collects all that really good data about your solar system. #SkyWeather #raspberrypi #arduino #esp32 #esp8266 #weather #switchdoclabs. #blynk #makersgonnamake #science #maker #stem #education #solarpower #solar #SolarMAX #switchdoclabs #weatherstem https://www.instagram.com/p/B1mIQkBnKLB/?igshid=1xqewgmjsvj0w

K-9 V3 Update

On the initial K-9 version we used NodeRed, Python, and Blynk to enable control by an I-phone. This was a fast to implement solution since we had no experience programming in JavaScript / HTML. 

However it had several issues:            

Time needed at boot to load both the Blynk and NodeRed servers. 

Challenges to keep the servers in sync through various software releases.      

User interface limited by Blynk’s options.

On K-9 V3 we are simplifying the architecture using just Python and a Flask server. This allows for a quick load on boot and by using sockets we maintain fast communications between the I-Phone and control.

Favoriot as Blynk Alternative?

When Blynk Is No Longer Enough: Why Serious IoT Builders Are Turning to Favoriot What happens when the tool that built the prototype becomes the ceiling that stops the product? That question is being asked quietly in IoT developer communities, university labs, and startup offices across Southeast Asia. Blynk has served millions of makers, hobbyists, and early-stage developers well. It lowered…

Menghubungkan Node-RED dengan Blynk

Seharian penuh saya mengikuti dokumentasi cara menghubungkan Node-RED dengan Blynk, tetapi tidak membuahkan hasil. Disitu dijelaskan beberapa garis besar tahapnya, yaitu menyiapkan template di Blynk, Install Node-RED, Konfigurasi MQTT Broker, Buat Node-RED flow, Jalankan. Dari sekian langkah diatas, saya terganjal di Konfigurasi MQTT Broker. Diutak-atik tetep statusnya connecting alias tidak…
