I Love How Everybody Just *sees Vampire* BEEBO!! BEEBO! BEEBOOO!!! But YES! Hot 1920's Vampires Women!!!

SPOILERS FOR SLIME RANCHER 2!!!!!

so ive been OBSESSIVELY playing Slime Rancher 2 since I got it a few weeks ago and I finished the actual (released) lore maybe a week ago and OH BOY OH BOY DO I HAVE THEORIES!!! So. To put it simply (and because I think it sounds funny without any initial context) I think Gigi is the future daughter of Hobson and Thora who traveled back in time to destroy the Prismacore.

There's more to it. but i think its very funny to say it like that right off the bat

Evidence Time: -Mochi says that the fireflies you find around Rainbow Island are way too advanced and that they're impossible with current technology. (Time travel implications. It's believable that all the other ranchers we talk to would be kind of like an extended family for Thora and Hobson's kid, so Mochi being an "aunt" for them isn't unbelievable. What I'm getting at is that Maybe Mochi gave the kid some of her tech.) -Gigi says that her childhood feels like a different lifetime. This could just be her saying that after showing the Prismacore to the unnamed company (that I have hatefully dubbed Alterra) makes this current time feel so distant from her childhood, but I feel like one of Gigi's dialogues is something about her feeling like all her memories are playing all at once/out of order/shit like that. (Possible symptom of Prismacore time travel?) -Gigi mentions that her mother was upset she never got to meet her grandma. This is important because Thora looks like an older woman. It makes sense that she never would've met her grandmother if her mother is Thora's age (I'd guess mid 50's-mid 60's) -Gigi has literally fused with part of the Prismacore. Her memories and the possibility of her traveling through time could be a prisma-disruption made manifest by her desire to go back in time to fix the mistake of showing the Prismacore to Alterra -There is also mentions of Gigi growing up on the Far, Far Range on a ranch with her mother and father. The only child we know of who could have grown up (or will grow up as of now) on the Far, Far Range is Thora and Hobson's child. Counter-Evidence Time: -Gigi says that she is what caused the Glass Desert to become a desert. If I'm remembering correctly from the first game, Hobson arrived at the Glass Desert after it became a desert. Unless Gigi time-traveled to the Far, Far Past (ba-dum-tssss) before Hobson and Thora even got together, this doesn't make sense. Or maybe she's from an alternate timeline? -Gigi implies that her parents didn't truly believe in her, or encourage her to do what she wanted. I could chock that up to her being an unreliable narrator, but that's just a shitty excuse. Thora and Hobson don't seem like the type of people to discourage their child from their dreams.

Yeah that's it. That's all I got rattling around in my skull about this. That and the theory that Gigi will disappear (at least from the past) with the destruction of the Prismacore. Because clearly the game is leading up to the destruction of the Prismacore. And then, after she fades out and says her goodbyes to Beatrix, we get a message from Thora and Hobson about their newborn daughter, Gigi.

is this why i like fungi so much wtf

theyre in a polycule

a writing competition i was going to participate in again this year has announced that they now allow AI generated content to be submitted

their reasoning being that "we couldn't ban it even if we wanted to, every writer already uses it anyway"

"Every writer"?

come on

i want a vr headset for one reason and one reason alone.

to play Subnautica in VR and hook myself up to a heartrate monitor

based on a doodle i did in class. might come back and add a background but wabam. ryley robinson

human chicken of the woods and hen of the woods who keep chickens. they are also married

oh absolutely

You're about to close on your very own, suspiciously affordable and comfortable house. Just before you sign the contract, the realtor shows you the required legal disclosure: your new house is haunted by the type of presence you'll get from this spinner wheel.

Of course it is.

also just realized and dont feel like editing the last one: why the fuck do eridians count in base 6?

like the reason humans count in base 10 is bc we have 10 fingers, but eridians have 5 limbs with three fingers on each. it would make more sense for them to count in base 3, 5, or 15. so why 6?

i got project hail mary yesterday so everybody better be ready for YAPPING!!!!!!!!

I got to the part in The Martian where he does all the rover modifications and the mental image of it just bewitched me to the point I had to draw it.
