Which one of your headmates is the most likely to participate in stupid internet trends?
Legitimately none of us because we have common sense and we fear pain, assuming that stupid Internet trends refers to stuff that can hurt you (the original question gave the examples of the tide pod challenge and cinnamon challenge). I cannot think of a single alter who is even 10% willing to do a stupid Internet challenge.
What’s the most oddly specific front trigger you have?
Not that I’ve discovered many, but to this day the most specific and baffling front trigger goes to Artblock, who will begin fronting without fail whenever we listen to Trust Fall by Ghost.
What’s one experience u look back on from before you knew u were a system and go “oh my god, it’s so obvious I was plural!”
God. Where do I begin? With the fact that when I changed my online name to what I’m known as now, I chose two different names (Doodle and Artblock) because I wanted people to call me two different things? With how I always felt like a different person on rainy days and thought it was just seasonal depression (it turned out to be my alter Spiral)? With how I’ve said things like this?
hornet thinks that by refusing ascension and living with mortal bugs she is refusing the divinity her father represented but she doesn't realize that he too shed his larger form to be closer to the ground
Saw your OC art on Witch's server and knew I had to follow! You have so many, holy crap (/positive). I don't know who any of them are, so I hope you don't mind me picking a handful of names from different stories. Please, tell me whatever you like about these fellows:
Lucas (I also have an OC called Lucas, so 👀)
Maeve Bailey
Captain Erwyn Roberts
Azrael
Ora
Vexx
Amanda Summers
Omori!Sketch (Omori fan spotted!!)
Starrionette
I would love to know about your other OCs too, of course! These are just some names that stuck out to me. I love that you have so many OCs, but I know they won't all fit in one post, so make as many posts as you like :]
Have a nice day!
Oh my gosh!! Thank you so much for showing interest in my OCs, hehe. They’re all a labor of love (admittedly, it’s about to become very clear that some get a lot more love than others) and it’s not often that I get the chance to talk about all of them. Also, please note that with some characters, I won’t be able to give you a full idea of their stories due to either lack of development or spoilers. So let’s get started!
Lucas:
I. Uh. Hate to disappoint on my first character, but Lucas is a character that is heavily under construction. Ambivalent Souls is a story that has gone through a lot of reworks, which has left it in a state where most of the story is figured out, but the first arc of the story is a big fat question mark. And Lucas is unfortunately a character who is dependent on the first arc. Thanks to his status as a side character, I haven’t even thought about him that much, nor developed him. Hell, I don’t even have art of him.
What I can tell you is that he is the caretaker to protagonist #1, Zachary (Zerie for short). Zerie was adopted by rich and influential parents, but they died when Zerie was about 10, leaving just Lucas and Zerie alone. Lucas does his best to try and guide Zerie (read: try and make him a normal person for Christ’s sake this kid is so weird) but he continually has his patience tested when Zerie starts collecting a found family of other weird kids and demanding they live in the same house together.
There’s a lot to chew on, I just… haven’t started chewing yet. Hopefully I’ll get around to that soon!
The rest of the OCs under the cut for organization’s sake ^^
Maeve Bailey:
NOW here’s an OC I can say stuff about! And, what do you know, I have some drawings of her, too!
(P.S. If you can’t quite tell what’s happening in an image with a certain design of mine, check the image description! A lot of these are images on my phone and are cropped weirdly to avoid spoilers, so if the image is too fuzzy for you, or you don’t really understand what’s going on with a design, the description should have some more detail.)
Maeve is the first introduced true antagonist of And Then It Dawned On Him, which is a story set in a fantasy version of medieval Ireland. Maeve is meant to directly contrast the main character, Yazmin: Yazmin is an amateur knight, Maeve is a seasoned mercenary; Yazmin is fast and light in her attacks, Maeve is slower but stronger; Yazmin is noble and just, Maeve is cruel and selfish.
But Maeve just operates in what she thinks the way of the world is. It’s a dog eat dog sort of world, and she’s a wolf. Every opponent she faces she crushes until they’re humiliated, because she doesn’t want to leave any chance that her foes could strike her back.
Maeve belongs to a particular group of mercenaries, headed by her adoptive father, Peter Bailey, and she is joined by a knight named Aesthe Coiléan. Their relationship is rocky at its best and violent at its worst, but Maeve at least trusts Peter with her life, seeing as he saved it when they first met.
Captain Erwyn Roberts:
OHOHO. ERWYN MY LOVE.
Erwyn is actually a sona of mine! Well, she’s bordering on being an OC at this point, but she’s very much a representation of me. Despite looking and acting almost nothing like me.
Ahem. Erwyn is from Deep Sea Idiots, which is a collaborative story between me and my friend set in a fantasy pirate era. My contribution to this story has been most of the worldbuilding, along with most of the human cast of the story.
Captain Roberts is captain of the most fearsome pirate crew to ever terrorize the seas. He’s known for his ruthless targeting of Navy ships, his swift and bloody pillaging, and his daringness to sail directly through deadly siren waters. It’s said that the only survivors of encounters with the Roberts crew are ones that he chooses to let go, to let his infamy spread among the people. Yet, despite the fear that the mere name of Captain Roberts spreads among sailors, nobody actually knows what he looks like…
…which is quite convenient for Erwyn Roberts, because that means she can pass herself and her crew off as a merchant crew and enjoy the luxuries of not being a wanted criminal quite easily. To others, Erwyn “Reynolds” is a bumbling, friendly captain in a small trade company. Thanks to Erwyn’s careful trickery, no one besides his crew knows who he really is.
That’s not getting into the actual plot of DSI, where Erwyn falls in love after a chance encounter with a siren and then Things happen, but that’s a basic overview of the character. I just glazed him really hard but really I can’t emphasize how stupid Erwyn is. He checks all the necessary boxes of being a himbo (pure of heart despite the many murders, dumb of ass, big of chest). I love her dearly.
Azrael:
Oh, goodness. What a character to have to describe.
Azrael belongs to the story Demigod Dumbasses, but instead of being a character in the modern era, where the story is set, he’s a key figure in the backstory.
You see, when gods were prevalent, there was a Pantheon of five that took up most of the duties governing mortals and the planet. Any duties that were outside the domain of the main five gods were given to sub-deities, and Azrael happened to be one of them. Skiá is the goddess of the underworld who presides over deceased mortals, but Azrael was the god of death and the one who actually performed the reaping and delivering of souls to her. Azrael is a dutiful and efficient god, and never once complained in his duties, even as death counts started to rise as demigods warred with each other, causing mass destruction and death in their wake.
Then, one day, the weakest of the Pantheon approached him. Lux, one of his mothers, spoke with Azrael, and told him of her concerns with the overabundance of demigods and their violence. With that, Azrael was convinced, and he created a plague, and slaughtered almost every demigod that crossed his path. Meanwhile, Lux confronted the rest of the Pantheon…
…and that was the last Azrael ever saw of the entire Pantheon. He and other sub-deities still operate, but without the guidance of the Pantheon, they begin to die out. Yet Azrael, steadfast and ever-relevant, remains.
Ora:
Gosh I really have no drawings of these characters. My most recent drawing is at least a year old.
Ora is the protagonist of Ora and the Rift in Time, which is a concept for a game that I came up with years ago. The game’s story was… to put it lightly, very inspired by Super Paper Mario, and to this day I am still trying to rework it to give it its own original identity, and I’ve been struggling with that.
Ora themself though, is your typical silent protagonist. They can communicate through sign language (if the player of this theoretical game chooses to have Ora learn), but otherwise they are selectively mute.
Although they are very young, Ora still takes it upon themself to save the world when it is threatened by Lord and Lady of the land after they open up a time rift. They take up their grandfather’s sword, journey out of their village, and team up with a helpful butterfly spirit! Time rifts are a tricky thing to deal with, though, so Ora may have to save the world more than once….
Vexx:
I felt so bad about not having any recent or good-looking art of her that I quickly doodled her despite my recent traditional art slump. Here she is!
Vexx is from Show Time, which is set post-apocalyptic world, inspired by the games Little Nightmares 2 and Stray. Human structures remain, but now Vixens (Vexx’s species) and Televors (TV-Heads) try to make sense of the world that humans have left behind.
Unfortunately, one of the few things that survived the collapse of human society is the churning machine of capitalism. Vexx works in a factory belonging to the mega-corporation of BiCorp, and one day after a workplace accident that almost injures her, she confronts her boss, the TV-Head Dislan. Things get heated, she pounces, and almost bashes his screen in.
What she learns from damaging the wires on the top of his head is that all of the Televors are being brainwashed by BiCorp into doing their dirty work. It’s now up to Vexx and Dislan to sneak their way to the BiCorp headquarters and find out just what the shady CEO is planning.
Amanda Summers:
…unfortunately, I can’t show you her design, since it’s a spoiler. So sorry! :)
What I can tell you is that she similarly belongs to Show Time, and she is the shady CEO that Vexx and Dislan are after! She goes by CEO for most of the story, with her actual name being revealed much later… it’s a whole thing, and I’m not exactly able to explain why without traversing into spoiler territory.
But she serves as the first main antagonist of the story… but the role she occupies is very much a work in progress. However, I imagine her personality is strikingly similar to Queen from Deltarune, so… she’s certainly an interesting character.
Sketch (Omori):
Ah! You’ve chosen another one of my sonas. While I have a number of self-inserts that go by Doodle like I do, a couple of them go by Sketch. Usually those are for self-inserts of the romantic variety.
The Omori version of Sketch isn’t super developed (since I often have trouble developing character arcs for fictional versions of myself), but that’s okay since I made her just because I wanted to kiss Captain Spaceboy.
Dare I say that Omori!Sketch falls into the substanceless Mary Sue self-insert archetype…? Oh, well. Maybe I’ll figure out something more to her eventually, since she’s lacking in a story. If you ignore the 30+ page document I’ve made of fanfiction of Sketch and Space Boyfriend becoming a couple that I never completed and then LOST because I saved it on a different website and then forgot my password. Whatever, man.
And, lastly….
Starionette
Starri is a character that similarly lacks story events, but I’ve found plenty of utility for her in roleplays! She’s inspired by various vocaloids (Hatsune Miku and Kasane Teto particularly, with Yi Xi serving as a voice claim for her), and CG5’s Project U Move.
She claims to be a virtual idol in a CRT TV. She’s outgoing and friendly to everyone she meets, and assumes that everyone she comes across is a fan of hers (despite, of course, nobody knowing who she is). Starionette is very insistent on performing concerts for all of her fans, since she just has so much love for them all! And often, all those who see her concerts end up becoming a helpful part of her crew…. inside the TV…. how spooky!
I’ve been doing an ongoing roleplay with a few friends utilizing Starionette for at least a year now, and her crew consists of a Tech Lead (another OC of mine), a House Manager (me), a Lighting Lead (another OC of mine), a Stage Manager (my friend), a Security Guard (a different friend’s OC), and a Set Designer (another friend’s OC). So why not stop by and watch her perform…? I’m sure she can find a job for you… :)
Whew! That was a lot of yapping! If you stuck through this post all the way to the end here, I’m thoroughly impressed. You get a gold star. ⭐️
Again, thank you for asking about my OCs. I hope I described them in a way that satisfied your curiosities, but left you wanting to know more, hehe…
Maybe one day I’ll be able to start consistently posting and developing my OC stories here on tumblr.
Mantis is SUCH a pretty bird, and because Bug raised her, she's also the best of both worlds- wants to be pet by humans, easily hangs out with the other birds. Lets me put 4-leaf clovers on her head like a hat so I can take cute photos of her.
Can’t remember if I’ve told you this already but if it isn’t obvious yet, you make me think of sweet treats and candy a lot in general. I associate a lot of sweeter and fluffier foods with you and I was thinking about that again and realized that sometimes when I’m thinking of y’all I think of this. This is yall to me :) <3
Oh my gosh. Dum-Dum pops… oh how I have mixed feelings on you….
Im realizing now I sent you a picture of original flavors which is. Not a lot. There are mixed variety bags with roughly 30 flavors and I was gonna get you an image of them all listed because I was curious to see if people would start picking a flavor of dum dum
But apparently there’s been no one crazy enough yet to take a picture of every dum dum flavor and list them aside their flavor which makes me MAD because I spent the last 30 minutes trying to find an image to show you all the flavors and there’s not even a whole list of every flavor ever that I’ve been able to find so. Whatever. Kicks rock…
Also every mystery I always got was blueberry (my favorite flavor) so I think it’s a skill issue on your end (silly)

NOTICE FOR PSYCHOTIC PEOPLES LIKE ME AND THE NEW TOMODACHI LIFE: Please please pretty pretty please be careful while playing Living the Dream, esp if you’re currently unmedicated!!!
The game treats the Miis like they’re real people and makes zero mention ever that they are not, and only ever refers to them and their POV as if they are real and you are their caretaker! While playing this honestly messed with my head pretty badly at times and made me worry a lot on if I was hurting real people/not doing enough for real people while I was playing!
I cannot imagine how much worse this would be for someone who’s unmedicated, non-dormant, or experiencing breakthrough symptoms! Do please be careful and PLEASE remember to have a way to reality check yourself while playing the game!!!
Also: If you’re not psychotic, please reblog this anyway!!! It may not seem like a big deal to you but these kinds of things are REALLY important to know for us psychotic folk in a world that is both hostile and negligent to us and our needs!!!
(one question for emojis I recognize, and another for some I don’t :))
Between 🕷️ and 🧬, who holds their liquor better?
This is an oddly tricky question. I’m inclined to say (🧬) Lijun holds their liquor better only because he drinks more often and more heavily than (🕷️) Thiago does. Lijun is a heavy drug addict in secret and also does often drink a lot of alcohols when he can as well! However Thiago is capable of drinking a lot and not being noticeably affected by it really at all. Lijun definitely holds his Liquor better than Thiago. However any attempts to prove this is futile because Thiago has an incredible sleight of hand and would be able to manipulate Lijun into drinking way more than him until he is heavily and noticeably affected by it therefore allowing Thiago to “win” the “challenge” by cheating. If both drank the same amount in this circumstance, Thiago would quickly back out after a few drinks out of fear of getting too drunk and being unable to have full control of himself and his actions because he doesn’t want to open up or be seen acting as or taken as some sort of fool. He will typically avoid any chance of giving Lijun some sort of upper hand or personal advantage over him.
If ♟️ could steal one trait from 🕊️ what would it be?
If (♟️) Games!Noot could steal one trait from (🕊️) Bellamy DwellRidge it would probably be her patience! Bellamy is incredibly patient— almost insanely so! Games!Noot on the other hand is not very patient at all. She admires how much patience Bellamy has with others and can’t believe that there’s someone in the world who isn’t easily annoyed or ticked off by people being stupid or straight up annoying on purpose! Games!Noot wishes she were more patient and understanding, instead of short fused and temperamental. She believes she would enjoy life a lot more if she had as much patience as Bellamy. Of course this patience stems from Bellamy’s ability to quite simply let things go. Like mean comments and rude remarks! She allows them to slide off her back like raining water on slick rocks. She doesn’t see a point allowing those who purposefully try to ruin someone’s day to be given the satisfaction of doing so! Because of this, Bellamy appears incredibly patient and is able to calmly deal with or plainly wait-out the purposeful and accidental annoyances in life.
(Idc if it says two I’m giving you three to complicate it all)
:3c
14. Is [emoji] or [emoji] better at video games?
🪱- Noah Callaway
🍊- ET Cetera
🫒- TQ Cetera
Most likely ET! ET as a whole would be so fucking good at racing games, and I think some of their older alters such as Lancer and Thyo would really like Soulsborne games and the Soulslike genre. They're also more competitive so they tend to win whenever pvp games are played. TQ prefers co-op games if playing with someone else and isn't competitive at all, so it loses most of the time. It prefers VNs and RPGs--games where your actions have consequences. I feel like it would love the vibes of Hollow Knight and Until Dawn.
If you were planning a day trip, would you rather go with 🐦🔥 or 🫧? Where would you take them?
Tbh I’d probably take (🐦🔥) Dysphoria on a day trip because she is my golden child and I love her the most! She deserves the world after all. I would take her to the beach by the way. It’s the only correct answer. It’s nice, sunny and warm which is good for her but it also has water and sand!!! Dysphoria would love to go splash around in the water and dive for fish and the likes. She also makes a really good floaty btw. Once she’s done swimming around in the water she’ll dry off and then give her wings and feathers a bath in the sand for a nice healthy coating. She’d also want to dig holes and what not but afterwards I’d take her to get Ice cream too!
I will answer for (🫧) Salamander as well because I also love her too. If I couldn’t take Dysphoria I’d take Salamander with me to the beach instead. She’d also enjoy it! However she would spend most of her time playing in the sand, digging holes and building sand castles and the likes. And I mean like really big sand castles you can at least crawl inside and what not. I see her maybe getting into the water too but she’d be more concerned with building a sand home for the creatures on the beach!
4. What would it take to start a fight between [emoji] and [emoji]?
🍭- Magnolia
🔮- Carrietta
Tbh, Literally anything! Magnolia and Carrietta are both very easy to agitate. If I put them in a room together I believe Carrietta would start yapping, Magnolia would find it boring, say it’s boring, and a fight would ensue.
