I'm No Picasso But This Made Me Laugh

I saw Sonic the Hedgehog 2 in theaters last week and I loved it. I also saw Wade adopting Shadow.

I fucking love that idea but I love Rachel and Randall adopting Shadow even more.

I actually CAN'T unthink it now.

Just image: Maddie's badass sister who wasn't too fond alien hedgehogs know lives with one. Not just any alien hedgehog, but an edgy one.

Rachel: "Shadow! Why are flames painted on my car!?"

Shadow: "SHIT-"

Rachel: "GET OVER HERE!"

Randall: "God I love than woman. Also good luck man."

Jojo: "I warned you!"

Anybody else have a blorbo that can do both?

Yeah, me too

Funnily enough I’ve been kinda curious about Mighty No. 9 lately, and the fanart you posted is strengthening my desire to check it out 👀

Oh yeah, go right ahead! I loved the characters voices, they're just super funny to me for some reason. The bosses especially were very quirky both as bosses and as helpers. Which yeah, another thing I like about the game. Unlike Megaman, which MN9 is meant to be a spiritual successor of, you actually get more screentime of all of the bosses and get a chance to know them beyond just fighting them for their weapons. I love that kinda thing since the bosses are related to the player character named Beck. I think it's super sweet that they help out their youngest sibling out but still let him fight his own battles.

With that being said though, I do gotta let you know that the gameplay has a couple problems. From what I hear the game bugs out and barely runs at 60 fps. Even if things run smoothly, some people really hate the enemy placement and consider it unfair. Using the playable character's weapons is also kinda weird and not like Megaman at all which can be kinda frustrating.

They speak the truth.

Alright, I love chapter 3 from Poppy playtime but dear God does it have some dark implications that I'm going to mention here. Please scroll if you're sensitive to that kinda stuff.

Spoilers:

There's pictures of children all over Home Sweet Home, including baby pictures. I'd like to hope for the best and just assume that the scientists working there waited until the babies were older before experimenting on them (Like experimenting on children isn't any less dark), but the developers did say that this would be the darkest chapter so far.

There are, in fact, smaller versions of the Smiling Critters that stalk the halls of the Playplace, and crawl around on all fours. They don't even speak, just make animalistic noises like growls and whimpers, even giggling. Very unlike the other Bigger Bodies Initiative, who can all speak normally. The children used in those experiments would be able to talk and walk without much help, but babies? Babies who haven't yet learned or developed enough to do any of that? Babies who would be just the right for the smaller Smiling Critters?

If this is true and babies were used to create the smaller Smiling Critters, then this game somehow got darker than Fnaf real quick.

Is she gossiping with a gal pal or lying to your face? Guess you'll never know

Back to sketches!

With how bad things got in the MMZ era, I kinda wonder if the guardians even had hobbies. Realistically they'd probably be too busy fixing up the planet and protecting Neo Arcadia to really do anything else.

You know how in the trailers for FNAF: Security Breach we saw Chica and Gregory in the kitchen?

Didn't Chica look like she was actually in control? She was doing a power walk instead of the zombie walk she has now.

Now that makes me imagine that the trailers were shot in the daytime.

Sanzio's just there like:

"Who are these people and how do they know me??? Why is the blue guy crying????"

I made the grave mistake of looking up what Epic the Musical was on YouTube and now I don't know peace-

That led me to listening to Survive, a song from The Cyclops Saga by Jeorge Rivera-Herrans, here's the link on Spotify:

It's so unbelievably good that I daydreamt an entire separate timeline for the Mutant Mashup AU based on this that I lovingly refer to as, the Painful Timeline.

Like I could vividly imagine DaVinci starting the song via declaration of war against either Krang Prime (Rise Krang) or a Krang infested, Dark Armor welding super Shredder. Blue would be the one who sings the battle commands in the middle of the song. By the end, DaVinci dies with the rest of the turtles get picked off one by one, leaving Blue, Sanzio, Niccolo, and Orange left to try and fight.

If they manage to get away (Blue used his portals) I imagine Sanzio lost his memory during the altercation, just like he did during the Mutant Apocalypse in canon. Niccolo would definitely need to build a new shell for himself, as a reference to the IDW comics. Blue definitely lost his arm for very obvious reasons. Orange is the least physically hurt by the enemy (y'know, baby privileges) but he does unlock more of his mystic abilities.

The rest of the fam is up in the air but here's what I got. Lou and April live but May dies, or at the very least isn't an ally because she was engineered by the Kraang themselves to be a weapon. Casey and CJ survived, Cass didn't make it and got overrun by the Kraang.

Somehow, someway they throw Krang Prime into the prison dimension with or without the sacrifice Leo did in the movie but by then, the damage to the surface is so severe that the remaining people need to go to the Mystic City. While it IS possible for the Earth to recover, it takes a very long time.

This isn't the worst of the worse timeline but it gets angsty real quick. From Sanzio struggling to regain the person he once was, to Blue's guilt over causing this entire mess, it gets pretty sad once you think about it. That's not even mentioning Niccolo or Orange's feelings about all this, or any of the other extended Hamato family and how THEY experienced this.

Phantom doesn't do well when he knows he's in trouble but is also too honorable to back out and just sits there waiting for whatever comes next.
