Muffet - Snowdin tea and bakery owner. Close relationship with Skeles. Puts cayenne pepper in many versions foods - spicy sweets. Has a few (like 3) setup for spider checkers - a checkers game with an otcoganol board. Waffle-coffee house. Speciality is spider Waffles, Soft Boiled spider Eggs, and Spider coffee

Muffet is a very hairy spider/rancho with scales/hairs all over body like the fluff of a moth. Helps with insulation. Smaller spider monsters are primarily covered in fluff for extra insulation with only tips of legs visible. Spiders wear little uniforms - usually hats/ribbons/tassels

Diner is covered in trap magic - one of many reasons no one causes a lot of trouble - snowdin in general assumed to be covered

Unlike skelebros Muffet can completely hide her trap magic unless someone is looking for it. Or at the very least her anchors are extremely small/needs less.

Smaller spiders may also use trap magic -> mainly just related to their physical silk.

Silk is heavily used in wardrobe and general materials.

Muffet must be seated the majority of the time the diner is open due to outgrowing the building. She doesn’t need to move much to reach every corner of the diner.

Double doors allow Muffet to leave through front if needed but she prefers to use the basement exit that leads to an enlarged basement - big enough for her to move properly, with a separate door out the back of the diner.

Muffet does not often actually leave and the back door is usually locked tight and hidden behind trash and webs. Since she has space to move in her home below she doesn’t see a lot of reason to leave.

Enjoys cooking and making sweet confections with her kin. Finds Sans and Papyrus cute - seen Papyrus grow up. A little older than Sans.

Spider eggs served to help keep populations acceptable. Boiled in a dust bath -> turning the interior monster into a weird edible savory jelly-like creature that is excited to be eaten. They feel no pain and usually find weird entertainment from being eaten in pieces. Not offended if eaten head first.

Diner spiders may actually be at LV 2 -> spiders have their own leveling customs. Basement spiders LV 1 - part of why Muffet and Diner Spiders are partial to Paps and Sans

“Muffet’s”? Like Grillby’s?

Grillbys - bar and grill

muffets - cafe and diner

While being a diner doesn’t actually care how long anyone is there. Closes late opens early -> most of Muffets time is dedicated to business with closing hours uses for rest, self care, and baking for the next day.

Probably has early days and maybe takes a “Websday” off once a month or so. !!she would be big enough and strong enough to easily go to Hotland or the capital if she wanted fancier supplies. !! <- gives part of reason for being so dedicated to the diner. Maybe gets special stuff for her kin/herself. Also cares about residents of Snowdin in her own way.

Like the idea of some of the bigger spiders acting rough and having little spiked bats to emphasize her kind of hard-punk/street gang aesthetic

15' 3"

Alphys - captain of the guard, watches over Waterfall but mostly has attention elsewhere ruling by name alone. Has Stone generally look after it. Originally from Hotland, met Undyne while stationed in Waterfall. Ascends (playing with words dunno if like that) in genocide route. Maybe something Al or Alph <- not a lot of options even with Alf.

Absolute Alphys? Alphys Ascendant

Her gameplay is similiar to Undynes except instead of blocking the player has to shoot her attacks like a game of asteroids.

Undyne - Royal scientist spicy fish yandere-like/light. Drinks beer enjoys super violent manga. Mew Mew -> Bork Bork

Jewel has a rough relationship with Undyne. Initially they were friends but after Undyne met Alphys she started to gain more level. It once got away from her and Jewel had to shortcut away from her as she was undeterred by Sans protection due to her own relationship with Alphys. She moved to Hotland not long after; secretly regretting her actions and not trusting herself in Waterfall any longer.

Napstablook -> Retraton - RTT // Retraton Para -> translates into shared HP forcing use of consumables along with cursor that copy’s players movements // maybe Retrabot to play off being an automaton vs mettaton being robot // Retrabot Para

Retraton held in place/ can’t move legs. Instead commands show through others monsters/puppets/effects. Usually broadcasts tragedies. (stone in turn loves tragedies lmao)

Has Rounded mascot form - form that is held in place. Para is transformation - still held but with extending arms.

Retraton Para - has extra arms.

"Oh yes~" -> "Oh no :("

Previously Napstablook -> taken to Undyne when Alphys found her missing her home; neighbor of Undyne. Forced into robot when he kept trying to return home.

Songs are very sad and yearning. TV shows are A Lot but also uses a lot of effects because it’s not like there’s infinite monsters.

May not actively star is show frequently but instead use puppets || marionette puppets his cast and narrates -> sometimes puppets are real monsters Retraton has some sort of relationship with surrounding monsters hinting at his Para form.

Para - kills Undyne before protag can activating Para form. Para uses Undynes soul. Might kill surrounding monsters / connected monsters as well.

Retraton - no use of legs - part of why puppets. Maybe needs to remain charged or frequently and feels more comfortable plugged in.

Arms > legs.

Box Form -> literally just a box with arms - no wheel. Has to drag himself or walk with his arms. Maybe has a hover butt? Or a skateboard. Or has lots of little legs. Roomba.

Mettaton(MTT)- Hapstablook

Instead of lie on the floor feeling like garbage they sit on the roof and consider love.

Gaster and Riverperson -

Stay in their respective posts however Gaster speaks in song and the Riverperson speaks in hands

Riverperson - gondola (gondoga) dog theme, speaks in hands, gondola above river because river water is too dangerous

Grillby - fire sale; father of fireflies literally flames with wings. Has a pet Fryfly - long fry-like fly. Instead of forcing player onto strings covers the field with hazards and fire. Have to switch and jump over between flames.

Pacified by firesauce (increases damage, possible burn damage, take one damage for spice) or Frenchfire (a firefly with an exploding baguette - covering the board around you in fire for one turn and burning any incoming attacks) or the purchase of either from his Hotland firesale.

Prices may be inverted to some extent -> Hotland Prices are cheaper but u need both items to pacify him. Ruins are achievable but ridiculously expensive. Only need one to immediately pacify him. Differentiated by name is Hotland Firesauce vs Old/Ruin Firesauce

All Dog references -> Cats (and vice versa)

Dog Squad -> Cat Squad

Annoying Dog -> Adorable Cat

Finally got a chair so i can SIT at my desk ~ now i don't have an excuse

🎶déjà vu - nct dream

[resetkid]

David  sits  beside  his  daughter  on  the  couch  early  Saturday  morning.   

Flurry’s  absorbed  in  a  thrilling  new  episode  of  Scooby  Doo ,   spooning  cereal  into  her  mouth  vacantly  as  the  Mystery  Gang  puzzle  over  how  to  capture  some  headless  horseman  terrorizing  the  town.   Milk  has  dripped  down  onto  her  nightshirt  but  she  doesn’t  appear  to  have  noticed.   A  fond  smile  quirks  his  lips  and  he  budges  up  closer ,   nudging  her  teasingly.   She  gasps  as  he  knocks  her  bowl   ------   even  if  it  proves  harmless ,   even  though  nothing  more  spills ,   she  still  squints  up  to  give  him  the  stink - eye.   

‘  Hey ,   chickpea...  ’   He  stifles  laughter   ------   the  indignant  look  on  her  face  is  just  too  much !   The  little  girl’s  all  puffed  out  cheeks  and  furrowed  brow  and ,   once  she’s  set  the  bowl  aside ,   her  hands  move  to  rest  on  her  hips  haughtily.   David's  grin  broadens ,   there’s  a  mischievous  twinkle  in  his  eye  as  he  cants  his  head  in  wordless  challenge.   ‘  Hm ?   That’s  a  funny  face !   What  happened ?  ’

Flurry  huffs.   He  knows  what  happened   ------   he  disturbed  her !!   Dad  disturbed  her  beloved  morning  cartoons ,   that  she  lugs  herself  up  early  for  special.   A  halfhearted  grumble  of  protest  passes  her  lips  as  he  pokes  his  bottom  lip  out  in  a  mock  pout ,   holds  his  arms  out  to  her.   Offering  comfort  that  wouldn’t  even  be  needed  if  he  weren’t  such  a  stupidhead.   

‘  Daddy’s  meeeaan.  ’   And  yet  she’ll  still  shuffle  over  to  perch  on  his  lap ,   hum  tenderly  as  he  wraps  his  arms  around  her.   ‘  Shhhh--shhh.   Am  watchin’...   Scoob’  Doo.  ’

‘  Mmm--hm...  ’   David  glances  across  at  the  television  screen ,   briefly.   She’s  a  funny  kid...   even  though  he  can  tell  it’s  irking  her ,   he  needs  to  tear  her  attention  away  from  it.   Ah---   her  long  dark  curls  are  tangled  at  the  back.   With  a  frown  he  takes  a  lock  of  her  hair  into  his  hand  and  feels  her  tense  awkwardly.   ‘  Frisk ,   what  have  I  told  you  about  your  hair --- ?  ’

‘  ...   Ehehe.   Wan’  Daddy  t’  brush  it.  ’   

‘  Come  on ,   then.   Let’s  pause  the  telly  and  put  a  brush  through  it ,   there’s  a  good  girl.  ’   Flurry  scrabbles  for  the  remote  obligingly  enough ,   and  hops  up  the  stairs  with  her  father’s  direction ,   babbling  away  eagerly  about  the  episode’s  plot  line  and  realizing  that  she  left  Oscar  on  her  bed   ------   he’ll  be  so  sad  that  he’s  missed  it ,   Dad !   

After  assuring  her  that  they’ll  most  definitely  catch  Oscar  up  before  they  press  play  again ,   David  digs  out  a  round  hairbrush  with  firm  bristles  and  brushes  his  little  girl’s  hair  out  gently.   There’s  only  the  occasional  whimper  or  a  moment  wherein  Flurry  flinches  as  he  inadvertently  tugs  at  a  knot   ------   otherwise ,   everything  goes  swimmingly.   

Mum  always  hurts  her  when  she’s  the  one  brushing ,   but  Dad’s  very  careful ,   and  apologetic  when  it  comes  to  the  few  instances  he  has  to  pull.   Flurry  closes  her  eyes  and  smiles  to  herself.   Dad’s  the  best.

‘  You  want  a  ribbon  in ,   chickpea ?  ’ ‘  ...   Mmm.   Nuh.  Cherry  bobbles !  ’ ‘  Okay...   if  you’re  sure.  ’ ‘  Um.   Yep.   Wait ,   nuh   ------   nuh.   Wan’  my  ribbon...   please.   My  blue  one.  ’

David  nods.   He  procures  the  slim  length  of  satiny  fabric  and  puts  her  hair  back  neatly ,   pinning  the  ponytail  in  place  with  a  tight  bow.   Took  him  a  long  time  to  catch  on  to  this  hair  brushing  lark ,   he  considers  dimly   ------   took  him  a  long  time  to  adjust  to  fatherhood  in  general.   But  he  manages.   And  his  daughter  is  easily  pleased  regardless---   as  evidenced  by  her  turning  to  face  him  with  an  earnest  grin ,   her  cheerful  chirp  of ,   ‘  thank  you ,   Daddy.  ’

‘  It’s  alright ,   love.   Hey ,   but   ------   before  we  head  back  down   ------   there’s...   something  I  wanted  to  talk  to  you  about.  ’ 

‘  Ah -- ?  ’

‘  I  was...   just  wondering  how  you’d  feel  if  we  moved  away.   Maybe.   My  boss  was  talking  about  me  relocating  to  America---   and  my  family  too ,   of  course...  ’   David  watches  his  daughter’s  face  carefully.   Flurry  looks  a  little  blank ,   so  he  elaborates.   ‘  I  know  it’s---   sudden.   I  know.   I  was  surprised  too ,   when  he  proposed  it.   But  I  think  you’d  really  like  it  there ,   Frisk.   The  weather’s  lovely  and  sunny   ------   nothing  like  the  miserable  rain  we  get  here   ------  ’

Dad  talks  on  at  her ,   about  how  he’d  be  making  more  money  and  how  they’d  have  a  posh  house  in  some  gated  neighborhood   ------   of  course ,   they’ll  stay  in  a  little  flat  at  first ,   just  while  work  gets  it  all  sorted ,   but...   she’s  not  really  listening.   It’s  an  exciting  prospect ,   for  sure.   But  also  one  the  child  finds  wildly  uncomfortable;   she  can’t  quite  put  her  finger  on  why ,   exactly.   How  can  Dad  talk  so  calmly  about  leaving  England  behind ?   

‘  ...   Mmm.   Nush--rey.   Nush--rey’s ,   here !  ’

‘  Nursery.   I  know...   but  you’re  nearly  four  now ,   chickpea   ------   so  you’d  be  leaving  this  year  anyway.   Though  things  work  a  little  differently  over  there.  ’   ...   He’s  losing  her.   Flurry’s  expression  is  crumpling  ever  so  slightly ,   her  brown  eyes  are  bright  with  bewilderment.   David  decides  that  maybe  talk  of  school  isn’t  the  best  way  to  sell  this  to  her  and  scoops  his  daughter  up.   ‘  It’s...   not  going  to  be  as  hard  as  I’m  making  it  sound.  ’

‘  ...  ’

‘  Hm.   You  know  what ?   Let’s  grab  Oscar.   He’d  want  to  hear  this  too ,   right ?   He’s  coming  with  us  after  all.  ’

Her  head  bobs  in  earnest  affirmation ,   she  perks  ever  so  slightly.   Still  not  quite  happy ,   but  he’s  said  the  right  thing.   Doesn’t  he  always ?   Slumping  in  relief  he  makes  his  way  to  her  bedroom ,   a  smile  crossing  his  visage  as  Flurry  nuzzles  into  the  crook  of  his  neck  lovingly.   Softie ,   he  teases.   'M  not ,   she  muffles  back  grumpily.

With  a  triumphant  flourish  David  snatches  the  rabbit  plush  from  her  Batman  bedspread  and  boops  him  against  Flurry’s  face  as  she  glances  up.   With  a  squeak  of  half  protest ,   half  delight  she  pulls  Oscar  to  her  chest  and  hugs  him  tight.   Bringing  him  to  her  ear  and  falling  silent ,   a  moment ,   the  little  girl  presses  her  lips  together...   her  voice  is  grave  as  she  speaks  out  to  her  dad ,   who’s  looking  on  expectantly ,   

‘  Oscar  thinks...   nuh.   Oscar  wants  t’  stay  in  Englan’.  ’

‘  Mmm ?   Is  that  so ... ?   That’s  a  shame;   I  thought  he’d  really  like  to  come  see  the  real  rabbits.  ’

‘  Ohhh ??  ’

‘  We’d  be  moving  to  a  little  village.   Ebott  Village ,   I  think.   It’s  not  too  far  from  the  city ,   just  a  bus  ride  away ,   but...   since  Oscar  doesn’t  want   ------   ’   He  chuckles  at  the  shocked  look  on  her  face ,   the  way  she  looks  wildly  from  her  toy  back  to  him.   ‘  You’ll  catch  flies  like  that ,   you  know.  ’

Flurry  stops  gaping  almost  immediately  and  instead  pokes  out  her  tongue ,   waggling  it  fiercely  to  communicate  her  grump.

‘  ...   And  now  the  wind’s  going  to  change  and  get  your  sweet  little  face  stuck  like  that  forever !  ’   David  brings  a  hand  to  his  head  dramatically ,   shifting  her  to  accommodate  the  sudden  motion.   Small  hands  flail  in  an  apparent  panic  and  the  kid  stops ,   sharpish   ------   a  soft  snicker  escapes  her  father  in  the  face  of  such  naivety  and  he  pats  her  head.   Teasing.   ‘  See ,   I  saved  you.   Wouldn’t  that  have  been  a  horrible  fate ,   chickpea ?   Good  thing  Daddy’s  vigilant-----  ’

S  Q  U  I  N  T .

Alright ,   he’s  stopping.   There’s  a  beat...   before  she  chirps ,   

‘  Ah.   You  said...   Daddy ,   are  there  really  rabbits ?  ’ ‘  Yes.   They  live  in  the  fields.   And  there’s  deer ,   and  toads   ------   ’ ‘  Butterflies ?   Froggehs ?  ’

Her  small  fingers  curl  to  clasp  Oscar  tight.   For  comfort.   Assurance.

‘  ...   Wha’  mummy  think ?  ’

‘  Mummy  wants  to  go.   It’d  be  a  big  promotion ,   so...   pay  raise.   Haha.   What’s  on  Oscar’s  mind ?  ’

‘  ...   Um.   I  think  he’s  still  scared.   A  li’l.   It  sounds  nice  there ,   but.   What  if  th’  America  rabbits  don’  like  him ?   What  if  they  think  he’s  weird...   and  run  away ,   an’  laugh  at  him  an’  leave  him  lonely ,   Daddy.   Oscar  has  friends  here  already.   He  likes  them...   an’  it’s  not  fair.  ’

...   It  all  falls  into  place.   

David  sighs  softly ,   glances  off  to  the  side  for  all  of  a  moment.   Flurry’s  shy  enough  with  anyone  who’s  not  him.   Always  ducking  to  hide  behind  her  dad.   Nursery’s  really  brought  her  out  of  her  shell ,   but  what  if  she  clams  up  all  over  again  in  a  new  environment ?   What  if  other  kids  mock  her ?   She’s  so  overemotional ,   she  takes  everything  to  heart...   he  hugs  her  close  and  presses  a  kiss  to  the  top  of  her  head.   Settling  on  her  bed ,   he  speaks  lowly...   gentle.   

‘  ...   Nobody’s  going  to  think  you’re  weird ,   or  laugh  at  you ,   chickpea.   ’

‘  Oscar.   Hmmfff.   Am  not  scared.  ’

17/100 ft nice lighting at school 

wrote up my rough notes from the lesson i had today, learnt some french voacb (not enough) and some hiragana

[thechessboardalley]

If the Secret Stones turn people into dragons with no chance of being turned back into the race they were before, then Farosh, Naydra, and Dinraal could have been the previous Sages of their respective elements; named after the Golden Goddesses over thousands of years.

With Zelda, being the Sage of Time, she turns into a dragon who is very much aligned with the Time element. And with Zelda and Ganondorf both transforming into dragons, it would make sense for their to be a general shape regardless of race.

Farosh is lightning, so she could have been from the previous Sage of Lightning, which means Riju could have turned into something that looks like Farosh if she ever ate her Sage Stone.

The same could be said about the other two with Naydra being the Sage of Water, and Dinraal being the Sage of Fire.

Each of the dragons tend to linger within given regions and have specific routes through them, never quite meeting each other.

Zelda's route is a little special as the Sage of Time.

I suppose she could have also start to be called something adjacent to Hylia if we followed the theorized naming patterns, but with Hylia herself having such a presence in the Era of the Wilds, that might not fit.

Makes me curious.

Ocarina of Time has a heavy influence on the games, specifically with names.

Hylian Zelda, Sage of Time; Hylian Zelda, Sage of Time; Ancestor Sonia.

Human Rauru, Sage of Light is the Zonai Rauru, also the Sage of Light.

Goron Darunia, Sage of Fire; Goron Yunobo, Sage of Fire.

Zora Ruto, Sage of Water; Zora Sidon, Sage of Water.

Kokiri Saria, Sage of Forest. Spirit Tracks, coming after Wind Waker in the timeline has a Sage of Forest called Gage, who is a Lokomo.

Sheikah Impa, Sage of Shadow. Ganondorf's stolen Sage Stone could be the Shadow element

Gerudo Nabooru, Sage of Spirit; Zonai Mineru, Sage of Spirit.

We don't have a Sage of Wind until Wind Waker, where Makar, a Korok takes the role. The previous Sage of Wind was a Kokiri called Fado.

Kokiri Fado, Sage of Wind; Rito Tulin, Sage of Wind.

We also do not have a Sage of Lightning until Tears of the Kingdom.

Gerudo Champion, Sage of Lightning; Gerudo Riju, Sage of Lightning.

Rough Notes About Dwarves

The following are some early notes during development of my take on dwarves. Much is missing and specifics may change or not be broadly true in the future. I hope you enjoy my rambles :)

Dwarves are a generally stoic and perfectionist race, with a deep love for music, and close family bonds.

To the dwarves the clan is the most important thing in most of their lives. Dwarven clans are traditionally organized into three levels, though a fourth level has been added since the religious convergence. The lowest of these traditional clans is simply the clan. The leader of this level of clan are referred to as chieftain. The next level is the high clan. the leader of this clan is a chief. The third clan is the royal clan. The leader of a royal clan is a high king. The fourth, and newest, clan is the priestly clan. The leader of this clan is a bishop. A dwarf is only seen as a full member of the clan after they become a master of a trade/art and are married. With the exception of the priestly clans. In which they must become a master of a trade/art and theology.

New clans can be established by any married dwarven couple with at least 50 decedents. This does include the spouses of married children. This new clan must then be recognized by either a high king, 10 high clans, or 100 clans. If approved then the leader of the new clan must take a new name. The clan will then be named after this individual.

Dwarves are considered to be adolescents at the age of 30. At this age young dwarves will be sent away from their home holds and cannot return for 20 years and must study a trade or art. The Dwarf must then prove their mastery to a grandmaster. The grandmaster is usually that of the hold they grew up in. Though grandmasters of the same clan can be allowed if none of the previous are available. And failing that a grandmaster from the nearest hold is considered acceptable.

It is only after they become the master of an trade/art that they are considered to be adults and are able to marry or enter religious life. If they are not able to do so by the age of 80 then they are banished from dwarven societies. Usually becoming tradesmen in other races homelands. Dwarves live primarily in underground settlements known as holds. Temporary settlements do exist and are typically referred to as mines. Many of these mines are located close to established holds, and many become the site of new holds. In most cases very few live permanently in these mines. Instead traveling from their holds and working the mines for months at a time. Then returning to rest for several months. Mines are typically located within a months travel from a hold. As the dwarven railways have expanded this distance had become greater.

In order for a new hold to be established it must meet several requirements. First being that there has to be a permanent population of 500 dwarves. Second being that there be a chapel built that can sufficiently fulfill are religious needs and can hold 1000 parishioners. Third being that a clan claims the hold. This is usually the clan that has the largest population in the hold or that have invested the most in the new hold. And lastly that a mausoleum be built in honor of the leading clan. This mausoleum will also act as the administrative center of the hold. A new mausoleum will be built in the hold by and for each clan the numbers over 100 members in the hold. These will act as administrative centers for clan members within that hold.
