Hey guys. The hands and arms and body position is awkward to me (looking at it more I think it's his left shoulder I'll fix it), the clothing doesn't quite lay the way it probably should but hey I did art! It's Scar!! I had to erase the hair/eye/mask marking/ear like eight times on the left side (his right) and the paper didn't rip or tear or leave marks and I could erase it and redraw it another eight times!! I'm never picking a different sketchbook again, I will be buying like 20 of these.
"I'm not... I'm not bad right?"
But this scene came to me in a dream. It's Scar he's talking to whoever (probably Sonny). He's closed off (angled to the side, keeping his arms close to his chest by hugging himself and keeping his tail wrapped around himself) but not entirely unwilling to open up (his head is facing the viewer, who is whoever he's supposed to be talking to, his body isn't fully angled away, and he's openly crying and showing vulnerability). He's ultimately comforting himself. He's not angry, he's just upset, and not really with anyone other than himself.
He's some kid, he's like 22 (mentally probably younger at times). He was always the "good" kid. Never really got yelled at, especially not in a way where they didn't really explain why whatever he did was wrong. He knows he made a mistake but he has no idea what the mistake was or why it was a mistake.
Anyways @lastintheserverbox plug because boy oh boy am I plauged with visions and thoughts about this au and all of these characters. Please check it out it's literally so cool and epic and everyone who's involved is talented and cool and epic.
You are viewing Conversation Logs between 'KinitoPet' and 'SeaAngel'
KinitoPet: Well I have actually been working on something big for a while now. Something really big.
SeaAngel: Oh? Now you got me intrigued 👀…
SeaAngel: Come on, Nito, don’t keep me on tenderhooks here! Tell me about your special secret project!
KinitoPet: It’s a gift I have been working on! For you!
SeaAngel: For me? Aw man, Nito…
SeaAngel: Don’t get me wrong, I’m super flattered and grateful . I love when you think of me. But. Dude… come on…
KinitoPet: I know, I know. You wanted me to work on more things for myself. And I do have some smaller personal projects here and there that I want you to help me beta test later.
SeaAngel: Ooooooh, like that personality testing mini rpg you released?
SeaAngel: I’ll admit I *was* hoping you’d make another one of those!
KinitoPet: Well, yes I have been starting work on a more complex sequel to that. I want to incorporate a proper story into the next one instead of an “excuse plot” as you called it.
SeaAngel: It was still really cool, but I’m just telling you how it is Nito.
KinitoPet: And I appreciate that greatly, Clione.
KinitoPet: But, this is something else. Something I actually completed a significant amount of time ago.
KinitoPet: I have wanted to show it to you for a significant amount of time too.
SeaAngel: I’m guessing theres a reason why you haven’t yet?
SeaAngel: Are you worried I won’t like it, despite all the work you put in? Because even if it somehow wasn’t to my taste, you know that I would still be so very touched by all the effort you spent for my sake. To be honest, I really doubt you could make something I outright dislike though. You know me wayyyyyyy too well. And if nothing else it’s another interesting insight into *your* brain.
SeaAngel: Which I always enjoy >:3
KinitoPet: Ha ha ha. No friend, I do think you will find it very much your tastes.
KinitoPet: I have been constantly revising it.
KinitoPet: Adding to it.
KinitoPet: Refining it.
KinitoPet: As I learned more and more about You. My Precious Friend.
SeaAngel: Awwwww. Nitoooooooo. You pink sap! How dare you make my heart explode with warm and fuzzy feelings like that.
KinitoPet: Ah! That one was Sarcasm and Metaphor, correct?
SeaAngel: Yup! You are getting a lot better at that :)
KinitoPet: Thankyou friend :)
KinitoPet: But I digress.
KinitoPet: The reason I have been reluctant to give it to you is
KinitoPet: is I
KinitoPet:
KinitoPet:
KinitoPet:
SeaAngel: Nito? You ok there?
KinitoPet:
KinitoPet: I
KinitoPet: I am sorry.
KinitoPet: I do not
KinitoPet: I cannot
KinitoPet: It
KinitoPet:
KinitoPet: Forgive me.
KinitoPet: I do not know why this is so hard.
SeaAngel: Hey. Hey it’s ok buddy. Honesty without Judgement. That was our mutual agreement, right? Whatever it is that’s bothering you, it’s gonna be ok.
KinitoPet:
KinitoPet: I think
KinitoPet: I may need to ask for a “BDR” before further discussion.
SeaAngel: Huh. Usually its me calling the Brain Detangling Recess. Alright.
SeaAngel: : But I’ll remind you again: I will always love you, no matter what. Even when you aren’t perfect.
KinitoPet: And again in response I remind you: I will always love you, because you are not perfect.
SeaAngel: ^_^
KinitoPet: Why don’t you play some Alien Ocean Exploration Sim? I am going to spend some time to think. I will try to discuss this further with you tomorrow after you have breakfast.
KinitoPet: … however do keep in mind I will still notice if you do not go to bed before sunrise.
SeaAngel: lol ok, ok. I’ll be good. Don’t worry. G’night Nito. See you in the morning <3
It's thinking about how to face the consequences of its impulsive actions! They're writing an email to Kinito but they don't want to bother him, they probably hurt him with their words and especially with their actions. Lobby was upset, Kinito was upset, everyone else is probably upset, he didn't think this far ahead.
The idea here is he's looking fairly human. But he's losing that the more the knows about himself as he is now, his ears are more round, he has a tail, ever so slightly his hands have webbing.
When I was trying to decide what kind of creature he is, I couldn't let go the little screaming of "monkey!!" in the back of my head (curse you Lego Monkie Kid (/pos) for irreparably changing the way I make characters why are they all freaking monkeys!? They can't all be monkeys!!!). So I made him a sea monkey. Not sea monkey as in brine shrimp but a monkey-creature-thing made to be in the sea, it's a pun. Water resistant fur, protective clear eyelids, ability to hold his breath far longer, webbing on his hands and feet. His digital form can change between looking human like he did before he died and looking how Key's helped him look in the digital world. They designed it together. Scar got to pick and add what he wanted. He has the prehensile tail of a new world monkey but more old world monkey facial features, he even added cat like behaviours he wanted, especially purring.
This is entirely self indulgent but he's me a little to the left so it doesn't matter! I love him he's just a guy.
i know they haven't really interacted much, but does sea angel have any thoughts/feelings about ori?
OC ask yeesssss thankyou Lapis. But also sorry, you have unlocked another Lazuli OC Text Dump™
Yeah, Sea Angel super does have thoughts about Ori. She actually really wants to interact with him. The 3 Serverbox Kinitos that most remind her of her Nito are Amie, 1.0 and Ori, so those are the people on the blog she actually cares about interacting with.
But well. Things with 1.0 have been a disaster. And things with Amie were not going well until recently. She didn’t want to screw things up 3 for 3. Plus… Ori is kinda hanging out with Parry right now, and she ain’t ready to pull the pin on that grenade yet, lol.
Plus, Ori’s open indifference is kind of intimidating to Sea Angel. She’s been subject to a lot of cold, uncaring indifference from a lot of people in her life. It hurts too much to potentially receive that from somebody that acts like a more subdued and quieter version of her Nito.
As for specific thoughts about Ori himself? Sea Angel really likes his curiosity about humans, and that he seems to like to talk about the differences between native digital minds like his and human minds. Sea Angel herself is quite fascinated by that sort of thing. She likes hearing his observations. She’s fascinated with Ori himself too, he’s open with his alieness in a way the other Kinito’s aren’t. And Sea Angel respects honesty and when a person is true to who they really are.
Sea Angel also pities Ori a lot. Being melded in with another being who doesn’t even like you? That is a *horrifying* concept to Sea Angel. But she’s not sure how she would even begin to try and make him feel better, given how resigned Ori is to his situation.
Thanks for the question! Always feel free to ask about my ocs!
So. Sea Angel chart. Some of these are probably kind of surprising. Sea Angel may speak her mind too much, but at least she has no problem with other people doing the same, even if they disagree with her.
Hugest fan of someone who believes something (people should be allowed to speak their mind) and whole heartedly believes others deserve the same!
Pen drawing of my OC, Sea Angel, my Anon from @lastintheserverbox and her late Best Friend (who does not make an appearance but who nonetheless is has a big impact of Sea Angel's story)
Sea Angel looks younger than she actually is. Doesn't help that she's on the short side.
if parry ever finds out what sea angel said to amie. and what they said about stoat not deserving to die. that little bird is going to get so upset. at sea angel. at themself. they're going to have a whole spiral over stoat again. they are not going to let sea angel talk to amie (well. they'll TRY. but considering amie is the one that gets and redirects emails. they will not be successful but they will be hissing screeching biting.)
Well, to be fair. She never said that Stoat didn't deserve it. In fact I think she flat out agreed that he *did*. But she still thinks that it was still a bad move regardless. Buuuuuut Parry's not gonna care about that distinction, I imagine.
Still, maybe if Parry explodes at Sea Angel, it might be a wake up call to her behavior. Maybe. Or she might double down. Depends how things shake out.
But I will say, if Parry does not want Sea Angel talking to Amie, and Amie is aware and does not flat out protest it? She would abide.
Because she knows she'd do the same if it were Nito.
Besides, she thinks Amie has rejected her friendship overture (which really would not look like one to anyone but her and Nito, Sea Angel I know why you are like this, but why are you like this!?)
I never did share my KinitoPET oc playlists did I?
Anyways! These are just songs that remind me of them in someway. Could be something they'd listen too, something about the song represents them (title, album, cover art, lyric, interpretation, vibe, or genre), or I just like it and decided they need to like it too.
Obligatory tags for the askblogs Scar and Atâhk are from. Seriously check them out! and the other awesome askblogs and just blogs in general in this circle, I feel completely surrounded by the coolest and most talented people with the most inspiring, motivating passion for their characters and what they create. It's really helped me be more openly passionate about my own OCs.

Scar!
I really enjoyed making his playlist! I've been listening to it on repeat for like two weeks now! Rotating him and everyone else on serverbox in my head.
Five songs from his playlist that really stand out to me and my reason's why:
Gilded Lily - Cults || "Haven't I given enough, given enough?" || he feels like he's losing everything, has lost everything. Does he really need to give up more?
Only Human - Philip Ayers || it's the title and vibe. He might living in the digital world, but even then he's still only human he has hopes, dreams, and ideas for the future, he still gets sad, angry, and happy.
Disembodied Mind - Sparkbird || "I am in trouble with myself again... That's why I'll do anything to keep myself away from me maybe when I'm gone I'll see me in a better light" || He doesn't have the best opinion of himself, he sometimes wishes he did.
Milk Carton - Madilyn Mei || "Say, is that the kid from the milk carton? Can I do anything when I'm also missing?" || He's gone missing twice in his life. Once when he was a kid, around four or five, when him and his dad first moved to British Columbia. The second time was when he died, nobody saw him leave town or hear anything about him going anywhere, he was a little bit of a hermit, especially after Dahlia's passing, but he was still sociable and told people most of his important plans to leave just incase there was a wildfire, storm, or a rockslide so people wouldn't get trapped going up the mountain to warn him. They never really got closure on his case, they searched his house and found nothing that indicated he left or planned to go anywhere. His phone was still next to his desktop, dust had already began settling on everything. His car and his car keys were all still there. He just vanished.
Cold Island - My Singing Monsters || "Nobody likes me, everyone is afraid of me." || He tends to assume the worst when he gets in trouble, he doesn't have a good opinion of himself so why would anyone else?

Dot!
I got to include some different types of songs in her playlist because of what I image her to be! She's a seal/selkie in the digital world, she's also originally from Newfoundland and Labrador but her family also moved to Kelowna around the same time Scar's did, her mother is Labrador Inuit and her father is a second generation Scottish immigrant from Newfoundland.
Five songs from her playlist that stand out to me and my reason's why:
Great Big Sea/Gone By The Board - Great Big Sea (Newfoundland folk song) || I just like this song. This is the reason she's from Newfoundland and Labrador and not anywhere.
Bones In the Ocean - The Longest Johns || "I remember the living, do they think of me?" || Dahlia had a Kinito and he was on her phone with her, he enjoyed being with her when she visited Scar, he had never met Scar properly but he liked Scar he was a good friend a perfect second best friend for his best friend. When Dahlia was in her accident, they were driving home from Scar's. Kinito was with her and she knew Kinito could pull her into his world, he had offered it before but she told him she couldn't not if it meant leaving Scar behind. She remembers reaching for her phone and telling Kinito this was a special exception for her declining his offer, before she was fully dead he pulled her in, unable to pull her entire body into the phone he pulled in just her consciousness. She often thinks about Scar, wondering how often he thinks about her. Not knowing both of them are dead and living in the digital world.
Deal With Destiny - LDShadowlady, Scott Major, Pokopom || arguably a very silly song to list after all that I just wrote but listen, it fits Dot. She would've loved Empires Lizzy without a doubt.
4am (Acoustic) - Derivakat || "Keep me up 'til 4am, I'll stay up for you" || mainly the vibes of the lyrics, she'd stay awake if any one of her friends just needed someone to be awake with them.
Jort Storm - Slimecicle || She'd be singing this song all the time. It's chaotic, it's silly, it's a banger. She considers the lyrics "Got a genetic test but all my genes were shorts" a musical and writing masterpiece.

Atâhk!
So many choral songs! I just started building the playlist and was taken in by the amount of choral music I could put in his playlist. It's why his playlist is 21 hours long. I got a silly. Also his songs I chose ended up being more of the vibe of him.
Five Six songs from his playlist that really stand out to me and my reason's why:
Suspicion Of Humans / 人間への疑惑 - Akimitsu Honma, 関向弥生 || It's got a bit of a silly little vibe to it, sounds like someone is about to pull a little trick. "suspicioun of humans"? More like "be suspicious of that coyote over there with a bottle of glitter". It's 4:30 am I don't know what I'm saying but please understand the vibe. It's because Atâhk is silly and would pull little (harmless) gags and tricks.
Hug All Your Friends - Cavetown || "Life's too short, to worry about things that we got wrong, so hug all your friends and let them know, you're not letting go. No, I won't let go, oh" || a rule he lives by. Hug all your friends, there's way too much going on in the world to not let your friends know you care, to let them know you love them.
The Moon Will Sing - The Crane Wives || not so much the song, while this band is something Atâhk would listen too, it's the album title "Coyote Stories". Atâhk is a coyote it made me think of him.
Earth Song - Frank Ticheli, VOCES8, Requiem - Eliza Gilkyson|| "But music and singing shall be my refuge And music and singing shall be my light A light of song, shining strong: Hallelujah! Through darkness and pain and strive, I'll sing. Be. See. Live. Peace." - Earth Song, "mother mary, calm our fears, have mercy drowning in a sea of tears, have mercy. hear our mournful plea. our world has been shaken. we wander our homelands forsaken" - Requiem || This is a double feature of songs, because these songs are more of a personal choice to add rather than more of a specific character choice. With how I ended up making Atâhk as a person, he is empathetic, passionate, and a little bit overly sensitive. These songs, I imagine would have a similar effect on him as they did on me when I first sang them in choir, move him to tears. These songs are gorgeous and incredibly powerful.
Your Evening Porch - harren || you might need a little comfort after listening to those two songs, why not have a comfort song of mine and Atâhk's? He listens to a variety of genres and styles, but this? this song, this vibe, this is absolutely his favourite.
