I want to have something out for Valentine's Day, and I don't know how much art I can get.

So here’s a sneak peek of what I'm doing at the moment.

It is my main Radiodust AU with my friend.

Bassicly; Angel and Alastor are a thing, they got kids -two bio and two adopted- and Angel’s the working parent who brings in the money.

I want to talk about it more but now it’s not really the time.

Enjoy!

Why My Brain Works the Way It Does

I recently learned about the "OODA Loop" while trying to explain the bridge between training and survival. Training establishes instinct and muscle memory. This is coupled with genetic memory, and feeds your analytical and logical side. These are all the parts of the "OODA Loop". Instinct is that "spidey sense". When Instinct starts tugging at you, you are almost compelled to listen. Something in your subconscious has been flipped on. You may not know why yet, but you listen. Maybe it's telling you the best way to egress, set up an ambush, or just that a situation may become untenable rapidly so prepare accordingly. Maybe it's telling you some genetic memory stuff like, Fight, Flight, Freeze, or Fawn or fear of locations where spiders or snakes might normally be, even if we have no had interactions with those animals before. Human memory is hardwired with a bias to prioritize, store, and recall information that is relevant to survival over most other functions, because survival becomes "Function Number One".

Equally important, is muscle memory. Muscle memory, in my experience, once established, is faster and more reliable than instinct. Muscle memory moves faster than the brains decision making process can, initially. The prefrontal cortex fires the first electron spark of the thought about "X" situation and that is all that is needed for muscle memory to assume control and start making complex movements. Muscle memory can do, or at the very least start the action for often complex tasks with little to no conversation between the brain and the motor function happening. Sometime, morbidly, over the threshold of life and death for a short time.

Training also help strengthen your analytical and logical side. Training has told your mind and body: "Be ready for, be on the lookout for, expect for 'X' situation all the time." Your analytical and logical sides have been forewarned that "X" is almost certainly going to happen start forming a plan now.

We already fed this information into instinct and muscle memory. Now training is informing your analytical side that it’s going to be breaking complex information into smaller components that are all connected by relevance to understand "X"'s rapidly evolving, chaotic filled situation.

While also helping your logical side to understand its place in developing a structured, rule-based, or cause-and-effect reasoning to reach a valid conclusion to those same rapidly evolving, chaotic filled situation. And in the process, on a back burner, we need you to figure out, in conjunction with analytical side, how to violate, circumvent, move over, under, around or through all of the structure, rules-based, and cause-and-effect reasoning you just worked out, just in case. Oh and I need, say six different ways, to execute all those plans, simultaneously, piecemealed together form all the plans and 2 others we just made up on the run, and we'll be needing that 10 minutes ago. So go, get to works.... Times a'wastin'!

Instinct and muscle memory have lit the spark of thought and movement. Your analytical and logical sides are looking at the every evolving situation of "X" and they are putting together a plan of attack based on a structured set of rules that has been broken down into bite-sized links of information that can be stacked up to cause one thing, or decoupled as the situations requires in real time.

As all those things come together, they have all informed each other into the  impenetrable shared reaction, that is beyond argument because of their shared opinion is the inly logical conclusion.

You "Gut" is your instinct and muscle memory, that instant reaction of movement or lack thereof. And the analytical and logical side are there to send the signal back to instinct and muscle memory side based on the plan that is in-place for that very second, every nano-second of every moment of your entire life.

For every line written, there are a hundred lines that gets buried underneath them. You see, thoughts are such creepy creatures that you want to convey a certain idea, notion but then as you spill them out, the original message or the spirit of the message gets sidelined and something else hijacks the thought chain. Now what comes out to the world is completely different from the original thought that rose in your mind. No harm, its all good, a complete blend and an amalgamation of all that's taking place within...

I made a post analyzing Hardcase's tattoo and armour design and LOST IT

Hahahahahhahahahahahahaha

Anyway

A thought occurred to me...

Hardcase's tattoo and armour design are literally his name in aurebesh characters

Source

Okay so Idk how I came across this, I was actually doing and thinking about something else entirely;;;

The following is the aurebesh characters, gotten from here

So! Clearly, uh maybe not that clearly

But! The characters H-A-R and C-A-S are literally there on both his tattoo and markings on his armour -- the character A being flipped at the chest plate, mixed with S at the end of the armour along with R character; then the H on his chin, likely mixed with S character and a likely stylised C character over his head?

The characters D and E though, I am not too sure but honestly I don't wanna overthink this as I already am overthinking this too much;;

Then again, D and E are first and end letters for DIE and that ugh I regret thinking about that now I'm just sad;; he probably didn't include it in his design to avoid thinking about it;;; he probably just avoids thinking about death -- he was even very calm as he set that explosive;;;;; ughhhh whyyy am I doing this to myself;;;

But, I have one headcanon now from the possibility of this -- he is probably very very very good at calligraphy.
