I was thinking about the concept of object "gore". Not like, flesh and blood gore, but like, "gore" based on the material of that object. Tattered fabric, scrap metal, spilled juice, shattered glass, etc.

When you think of it as a cartoony thing, yeah, it's funny! Like seeing Lightbulb/OJ from II shattering, Woody burning to death, etc etc, it's just a silly lil' gag! But imagine it from the perspective of an Object.

First off, how would objects react to "gore"? I mean, it's rather hard to differentiate between shredded fabric from a random shirt versus one from an Actual Sentient Object.

Imagine seeing a crime scene, a bedroom, completely torn apart. Cuts and slashes, an assortment of fabric and stuffing scattered everywhere. How do you tell torn blankets apart from the deceased Pillow?

Imagine being an electronic Object, walking in a lab/warehouse/factory, and seeing bits and pieces of wires, metal, chips, and plastic shells strewn around the place. Other Objects might not think much about it, it's just random scraps. But to the poor electronic Object, they might as well just be a pig in a slaughterhouse.

What's even more horrifying is the thought of seeing materials where they don't belong. Fallen leaves, twigs, and wooden splinters in a forest? That's normal! Seeing those in the living room? Unless you had a door open during a storm, that's definitely not normal. Doesn't help that you haven't seen your best friend Oak in a while. Could this be what's left of them?

What about ways to deal with the bodies? To hide an Object's body, you could just. "Modify" them. Wood? Carve them into something else. Paper? Tear them apart and just the wind scatter the remains! Plastic? Reuse, reduce, recycle. There's no blood to worry about!

Anyways, the thing that lead me to this entire idea in the first place is splatter movies (aka, those movies with a TON of gore). How would it work in an Object setting? For humans, you can just easily paint something red and call it a day, but Objects don't have that (unless they do in your setting, then uh. Ignore this).

Would they just throw a bunch of scraps into the scene and call it a day (like how most splatter movies tend to have WAYYYY more blood than what a normal human being should have)? Or would there be a more universal symbol of The Body?

Anyways, that's all I have in my mind ✌

get yourself a man who crumples like a soggy piece of paper

new object oc!!! I think they’re very silly and I love her

Yooooo it’s the boys!!!! ( requested by @cat-vase )

reblog and put in the tags a piece of media people find cringey that you unironically like

why do all the MePhones after 4S have no mouths?

i remember i saw a comic thing where cobs does it because 4s also wants food and he decided to stop giving them mouths lmao

This is actually a very interesting question! To answer it, let’s first establish the order in which the Meeple product came out, to our knowledge

MePhone3GS

MePhone4

MePhone4S/MePad (it’s unclear which came first)

MePhone5

MePhone5S - MePhone5C

MePhone6

MePhone6+

MePhone7

MePhone7+

Unknown MePhone (most likely MePhoneX)

Now it’s important that we remember what makes MePhone4 so special: his advanced emotion regulator.

It’s been confirmed that MePhone4 has the most powerful emotion regulator, and every other MePhone has the capacity for less and less emotion. So in a way we can consider MePhone4 the most “human” of the Meeple products.

This slow decline in emotional capability is evident through the behavior of all the Meeple products.

With MePhone4, MePhone4S and MePad (see: Why Does MePad Lie) all being very emotional. While 5, 5S and 5C don’t show as much emotion, though they are still capable of it (possibly even more than we know. Considering none of them got much screen time).

6 and 6+ don’t seem completely lifeless. But they don’t seem to possess as much free thought as their earlier siblings.

By the time we see 7 and 7+, the current Meeple products seem to be relatively void of free will. They live and die to serve their purpose. While we don’t have much info on MePhoneX, we can assume they most likely don’t have much free will, if any at all.

Over time the Meeple products have gotten less and less human. This is symbolized not only through their actions, but through their appearance.

Think of MePhone5 in comparison to 4 and 4S. He’s supposed to appear more technologically advanced. More dangerous. Less fragile. He has more robotic features. He turns into weapons instead of just holding them. He’s less human than 4 and 4S

(Note I’m using the term “human” loosely as technically they’re all objects)

This pattern continues as MePad has no mouth, but he still has eyes. He’s more technological than MePhone4 but he’s still very lively and clearly capable of free will.

5, 5S and 5C have no mouth, and their eyes are either covered or non existent. Their glasses give a slight illusion of humanity, but they don’t have nearly as much free will as MePhone4. And by the time we see 7 and 7+, they have no eyes. Their screens barely resemble a face. This reflects the fact that they themselves barley resemble living beings.

MePhoneX is by far the best example of this, as they don’t resemble a living being at all. There’s no features on their screen that could appear to be a face. Their limbs are thick and robotic unlike the thin and flexible limbs of the living objects, along with the previous Meeple products. There is no humanity left in MePhoneX, and their appearance reflects that.

Hope this helps clear things up!
