SPOILERS FOR SLIME RANCHER 2!!!!!
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.

thinking about the biological implications of someone (Ryley Robinson) getting stuck on an alien planet (4546B) with purely silicon-based lifeforms (headcanon).
like would he just starve??? Because if everything is composed of silicon there's no real use for carbon sugars and I dont think people can digest silicon last I checked
the main idea is that this could lead to some absolutely fucked-up prompts like Ryley slowly starving to death even though he feels full because his body is physically incapable of processing whatever fucked up molecules the plants/animals/other on 4546B use in place of carbon sugars. And he keeps misdiagnosing what's wrong with him as maybe it's part of the kharaa but then he gets to the floating island and gets potatoes and melons and lantern fruit and he either thinks he got over the kharaa or puts two and two together and realizes he was dying from starvation and/or malnutrition
He does magic tricks for his pet fish
17? distracting asks !!!
Ryley Mf Robinson genuinely makes me ill
Theres like jack shit we know definitively abt him, but the little bits of personality from his equip animations and the logs of the crew from the Aurora are fucking sick as hell
I genuinely can't remember if he's part of the repair crew, or engineering, etc cuz I havent played in a bit, but the fact he fucking zaps himself with the repair tool is insane. Like u don't just do that shit unless u already know how to handle one
Also I think him being an engineer/repair staff matches up with my playstyle of fucking around, finding out, and having to repair my goddamn ship and base every tuesday
The fact that he goes to an alian world and SURVIVES when everyone else had succumbed to the sickness is fucking cool as hell. And that he was only able to by listening to the logs and messages from the people before is also like. GODDAMN that's sad as shit. That the only people who have been in ur situation are fucking DEAD is horrifying
Also I've got a lot of hcs for this guy based on the fact that I think he's an engineer. Idk im thinking that he originally had big dreams in engineering different sick as hell ships, before he was put on as repair staff
Also nonverbal autistic ryley let's fucking go
the tall spindly anxious vaguely insectoid man strikes again
Sorry I’ve been inactive! I’m sick and there’s an exam marathon spewing it’s pure wrath upon me, so I haven’t been able to get as many Subnautica related ideas out!
Take this drawing of AL I made before I created this tumblr account for good measure, it’s not the best because it was a little rushed and for my Instagram story but I really like the colors.
thinkin about Astarion's eye color prior to being turned and everyone has the wrong idea. His eyes were blue. ik people have said "oh he has blue eyes" before but hold on
blue like "get brown contacts. NOW" blue. and Astarion refused to get brown contacts. so the universe turned him into a vampire
MOTIVATION THROUGH THE ROOF TODAY SLUTS!!!!
some fun facts about my tav (Miles) (That's my name): -he's literally just me (down to name, backstory, etc. i just threw in fantasy elements bc why wouldnt i) -wood elf mom (love you mom), human dad (L father) -all scars are cat scars (just like irl) -VAMPIRE AUTISM!!!! (just like irl) (love imagining the idea of my tav (me) just VIBRATING after finding out (confirming, because like 99% sure before the bite scene bc cmon mf is NOT SUBTLE) that astarion is a vampire like GRGRHRRGRFGRHHGFHHRRFGRHGFH LET ME DISSECT YOU) -can't read sheet music (bard) -holds his violin wrong (bard) -violin actually belonged to sister (like irl) (it actually belonged to my gg before her so its like. generational violin ig) -guardian (don't have a screenshot) is based on my pookie bear asterii (hence the aries zodiac) -SEVERELY allergic to cats (including Tara) (does not leave her alone) (consistently hanging out by Gale's shit just for the cat) -dying victorian orphan ass (not just the allergies)
some subnautica doodles from the last month-ish (including the original sketch of that riley w/ stalker egg one :D)
is it normal to have 2 oc's that are just like alternate versions of eachother but they were both born from the same thing? like basically identical.
the best example of this (other than mine) that i can think of is beta Xiao and ingame Xiao and i remember before Xiao was called Atlus in game some fics called beta Xiao Atlus and he was a diiiiiick. Like still prettyboy but an asshole but the main reason im saying this is bc i cemented the lastname for one of my oc's recently and that really diferientiated him between his beta and his current.
Viktor Sweeney was the original and inspired by this cunty vampire i made in a picrew on a whim and went "shit hes actually really hot" so i give him a whole personality and hes a DICK which was the intention because ooo hot sexy vampire. Main difference (other than personality) is that og Viktor was the son of irish imigrants who came to the US in the early 1900's and was very 20's-30's styled. he also lived in the great lakes area which i cant explain why but it just feels right to place him there
and now hes Viktor Soulier (shoutout to my pookie wookie who came up w his lastname <333) and hes just. wet. like a sopping wet cat who got stuck in the shower and accepted their fate. He's also France and has an actual partner instead of just a random y/n situation?? and they have lore??? Cecil doesnt really have a beta version though so fuck them rn
but like is divergent evolution oc's a thing that happens to anybody else???
based on a doodle i did in class. might come back and add a background but wabam. ryley robinson
note to self to make more vampire oc's like this, or have an oc playdate w my buddy who does
I know vampirism is often used as a metaphor for the drain of the aristocracy but I think it would be fun to have more vampire characters who were just some guy before they got turned. You seek out the most ancient vampire in existence and find out he was a 40 year old wheat farmer in ancient Mesopotamia when he was turned 7,000 years ago and he hasn’t been doing much since then.
