Was at a friend's house so here have some fridge magnet poetry bc I was bored

[bonesthebeloved]

I'm sure this has been said before by people that are better at articulating their thoughts but here I am anyway:

Ofmd and mainly the fandoms way of portraying the characters and all their flaws is so gorgeous to me.

The way i have seen tons of art of character that showcase their whole being human so beautifully.

Art where a character is shirtless and they have bodyhair and scars and soft bellies and age lines and stretch marks and where none of this takes away from the characters beauty and instead ads so much more to their humanity.

This fandom and its artists are revolutionizing body positivity and are showcasing characters without making them look like perfect, hairless models.

They are showing men that have all the characteristics of being a stereotypical man (hairy, large, rugged looking and scared) and those men are being gentle and soft and emotionally vulnerable with eachother.

They are showing off characters that don't fit into the stereotypical images of what a man or a woman is supposed to be and they are showing them as they are, not less or more then. They are showing Lucius and Jim and stede and Oluwande and so many others breaking every stereotype of what they are supposed to be and they are doing it in a beautifully mundane fashion.

I can't fully explain it without this becoming way longer than it already is, but yeah.

Every time I see art of this show I fall a little bit more in love with the inherent humanity of it all <3

Thank you my fellow artists. I love you, I'm giving you a kiss on the cheek.

Something that irked me about Philza’s stream yesterday was chat- I mean… chat is usually something that irks me about stream but let me explain.

When Philza was explaining certain ADHD stims he does, chat was just… unreadable. Constant spamming of “one of us”, one dono even blatantly said “Philza, you have ADHD”.

What the fuck?

Firstly, diagnosing people isn’t okay. If Phil asked chat to help him figure out why he displayed stims like that, then maybe it wouldn’t have been so bad. But Phil, 1, did not ask, and 2, guiding Phil instead of diagnosing him would have been the way to go. Directing him to resources (once again, should he want them) and sharing experiences.

Secondly, donating MONEY to Phil, a person you don’t even know (sorry to all the #parasocial people out there) to diagnose him? Blatantly saying “you have ADHD” and giving him money to say so? That’s- in the nicest language I can use, so fucking weird.

How would you like it if some random stranger, walked up to you, threw £10 at your face and diagnosed you with a mental disorder BASED on the fact that they have it and you display maybe one or two symptoms of such.

Phil has said it before and will undoubtedly say it again. If it becomes a concern to him, he will check it out. But until then, for the love of him and everyone trying to watch the stream, keep it to yourself. Assuming people’s mental health and diagnosing them is on the same level of weird as assuming someone’s sexuality and labelling them.

You've played Lcorp/Ruina? Any particular Abnormalities you like?

Oh no you're figuring it out- /silly

Yes, I've played LobCorp, Ruina AND am in the process of playing through LimbComp! I love all the project moon stuff even though I don't read a lotta literature so I don't get much of the retelling of stories bits that the games do (Much to the dismay of a certain friend of mine, sorry Ymir-)

Out of all the abnormalities, Blue Star has to be my favorite! I actually think Blue Star's referencing nuclear power- Both its risks and its allure, in a lotta ways, because in many cases where people are exposed to Radiation in a bad way, usually the material is decribed as "Blue," "Glowing", and "Tempting", most characteristics associated with the anomaly.

Kinda tragic in a lotta ways but also really fun how they play with it in the game.

I have an actual Abnormality OC that I made but I'll keep that under the Keep Reading line to keep this post brief-

A community for collaborative character creation and trading, worldbuilding and roleplay.

"Manager" is my one Abnormality OC that I specifically made for a Project Moon-verse based AU that friends and I made up.

As the story goes, there were three kids- One girl, who had a kind heart, and two boys- One jealous, quiet, and smart, and another, brave, strong and capable. They lived on the Outskirts, far from the city- In a forest with dark trees and strange creatures.

They lived together- And both boys had a crush on the girl. The brave boy asked first, of course- But the smart boy was very jealous, and sought to win the girl to his side.

So, he killed the brave boy, and admitted as much to the girl. The girl was miserable to hear that her friend was killed, and in a fit, pushed the smart boy into a nearby well- Before slipping and falling in herself.

The two could only think to themselves- How much they wished, to have done things over- To have done things differently. If they had only known this before--

And yet they fell

And fell

and fell.

. . .

Some time later, from that very same well, something else emerged.

"Manager" was not its first name. It did not have a name at first- It was simply a creature. Then it realized the powers it had, as this creature- It could go back in time, with the knowledge it had gained from the time that was rewound, and choose a smarter path- However, it could only go back to the moment it emerged from the well, and no further.

It tried many things. Going mad with power, and razing cities and countrysides, then it realized it could do something... different.

It found these strange humans, who were looking for creatures like it. They named it "O-02-01". It was a boring name.

It learned about "Lobotomy Corporation," where creatures like it were kept and experiments were run on the place it came from and what ran through that place. Curious, the Lindwyrm pursued this reality- And asked to help with it.

Of course, being captured wouldn't do- The creature wanted to be... A "Manager" for Lobotomy Corporation.

No one liked this idea. But, the creature had infinite chances to try and try again until it knew every perfect word to convince them. That's what it did.

"Manager" controls a LobCorp branch manned by a few. Strange employees- Ones that were experimented on heavily. The upper management did so because both Manager and the employees were expendable- Corrupted Employees and an Abnormality manager, this branch was practically doomed- But Manager took the challenge in stride, using its time-manipulating abilities to start days over and ensure the facility ran well, while getting to know the employees.

No one knew an abnormality was running the place- Even if the abnormality was one of those that they interacted with daily. Maintenance logs simply noted that interactions with "Manager" [O-02-01] would result in the facility manager's systems lagging or stopping completely, which was assumed to be the abnormality's power- Only a few team captains even KNEW the abnormality was running the show- NO ONE knew the creature's true power.

Things evolved from there. "Manager" bonded with the employees- Victims of corruption and pain and trauma, and when the day came that the facility began to collapse (As all of Lobcorp did), it reset the day, and began to plan.

That day, every employee escaped alive- Something no other LobCorp branch managed. And yet, no one would ever know, because no one kept a record of who managed to escape.

I have been enjoying string scale theory and was curious, have you made anything else?

I might cry just a lil /pos

I'm glad you're enjoying String-Scale!! I actually.... gave up doing blogs because of an incident related to this...

I had a blog called "JustACuriousLycanroc" which was about this really nice lycanroc called Iru who had a lot of fun silly story to him and was a part of the pokeask community-

Art by @neoncityrain I still love this-

Iru was a lycanroc who was tested on by Aether for the possibility of fusing pokemon souls together to make a more versatile and strong pokemon, but it didn't work out, and the pokemon he was fused with went berserk and the team all died.

Then there's Serix- Part of a bigger story that crossed over a few blogs, I believe.

Also by Neon-

Serix was the survivor of an apocalyptic situation that killed off his entire Salandit pack, leaving him alone. When he has an encounter with the zombified version of Coballion, he manages to outwit the half-dead legendary and kill it with a bunch of spikes, and suddenly is given the responsibility of raising the next Coballion. A sly, greedy scavenger, now the guardian of one of the most Valiant, Courageous Legendaries.... Surely this wouldn't go bad, right? I never actually finished Serix's story--

I had a lot more story around these two planned, but the blogs ended up getting,,, deleted. I was trying to delete a side blog and Tumblr thought that was me deleting my entire Tumblr account, so it eradicated all my blogs. I couldn't recover it and lost a fair bit of art. I was devastated for so long that I just. Didnt rejoin tumblr for a while.

And when I did recreate an account, I only made it for dev blogs for my games and mods. Or for memes.

But String Scale was such a strong inspiration for me that I. Couldn't NOT do it. So here I am.
