౨ৎ. Watch me selfship with myself /J/SILLY

OK GUYS;;; I MIGHT'VE GOTTEN;;; A LITTLE SILLY;;;

This started as a kinsona, and remained as such, HOWEVER it ended up with me using him to selfship with Ivrig, the kin in question,,,

Is this self-love????? I guess????? Yeahhhh whatever here, have a bunch of homosexual cabinets <3333

IN ADDITION !!! LORE !!!! UNDER THE CUT !!!

It's very very long so have a good read I guess </333 I put much passion into the homosexuals /silly

CW: mutilation, murder, transphobia, religious trauma

This is how his document would look like after he's scheduled for hacking:

NAME: Doe Santomassimo SEX: Female, although undergoes a masculine identity AGE: 20 HEIGHT: 170cm WEIGHT: 60kg

"A university student. No other instances of criminal record. Charged with mutilation and public exposition of corpses, and murder, shortly after the incident of a previous reformation target known as Yamamura. Found to be a BUG owner through scanning."

Doe is an Italian deer-folk, that's why I chose Santomassimo (can be translated into "Great Saint") as his surname, I just picked one of the most common surnames in my small town cuz ofc I wouldn't use mine even if I wanted to HJDHSDFJSFH

The reason why there isn't an actual birthname listed like for Ivrig still having "Kosuke" along with his chosen name, is that lore-wise, Doe undergo a legal name change. Ivrig, instead, stood with Kosuke during the legal name change in my personal headcanon of him being actually trans. In fact, in game he is not mad that people use Kosuke for him, he is more uncomfortable when his family insists on referring to him as "Ko-chan" using a feminine and infantilizing suffix. Plus, on the documents, his sex is male, meaning he also undergo some sort of legal sex change on paper at least. That means his family accepts the fact he is trans but don't quite understand how to fully be an ally and still use the "-chan" suffix. I assume that general hatred around the LGBT folks has been greatly reduced thanks to the whole "the soul is a source code, everything is prewritten" so people had gotten more understanding of the "I was born this way" and don't see it as something harmful. Although I can still see the older folks being judgemental and always take the opportunity to assume that any sign of diversity is actually a BUG and therefore personality error

This was the case for Doe's parents. His mother was purely Catholic and strongly believed that God sent the BUGs to punish the sinners. As a consequence, Doe lived in fear that even a minuscule mistake could lead to his death, even living under his true identity

After finally getting into university, and convincing his parents to get him a house to stay in, Doe is met with a completely different mentality, everyone is much more accepting and he slowly gets out of his shell to come out as trans. However, not to his parents, at least until he is met with the opportunity to undergo a legal name change. His parents are obviously furious, but not completely against. Doe can still be a pretty feminine name, however, his parents are much more against the fact that he chose to "discard his heritage" and choose a much more standard, English name rather than his Italian birthname. Tho there was still his surname so no biggie in the end

As stated before, his surname can be translated to "Great Saint" although the heritage of said surname is not really specified to be founded by religious backgrounds, it still recalls it quite a lot

Always afraid of religion, he'd grown distant of it, never sharing such detachment to his family and pretending to still be a believer every time he would come back to his hometown during the holidays

Speaking of hometown, his family is Italian but lives in the same setting of Ivrig's. Doe ends up attending a university in the same big city as Ivrig to study design, and that's how they meet

EDIT: Ignore that I completely forgot to talk about Doe's family LOL but he also has a little sister! His mother was first a musician but had to abandon that due to having children, which made her become a music teacher instead. Doe's mother is, in fact, known for being a really good pianist and everyone expected him to take the same passion for instruments. However, that did not happen and Doe took the same path as his father, which is becoming a designer. Everyone looked down on him because they thought that art would've been just a phase and "that job wouldn't have brought him anywhere if not under a bridge". It did not help that Doe's little sister DID take the music passion and started playing all sorts of instruments. Since the little sister took the musician path that the mother couldn't take, Doe was expected to at least take the teaching path. Of course, that wasn't the case, and Doe insisted heavily to go to university and study design. After a tough battle with his parents, they finally agreed

(Post Mindhack, Doe's family becomes more supportive, realizing that MAYBE they've fucked up lol) BACK ON THE LORE TY SORGY

Doe would always go to a specific square near most of the universities' campuses. He wasn't that good with social interaction and never really made much friends to hangout with, most importantly he wasn't used to the chaotic city life, so a nice, calm space where he could sit on a lone bench and draw whoever caught his interest was his go to activity

One day, Ivrig decides to use said square as a preaching spot: everyday he would settle down there at the same hour and preach loud and proud about LAGOM. Every time, Doe was there. Ivrig's passion and his over-the-top personality caught Doe's eyes, enough to actually lend an ear and listen, signing down information as he constantly imprinted Ivrig's poses on his notebook through doodles

He found himself interested for the first time into something related to religion. It quite resonated with him. Feelings are a hassle, they're complicated, everyone expects something different from him and from the way he chooses to express himself, sometimes people make themselves unreadable and confusing as if they were doing it on purpose! He didn't like doing mental gymnastic every time! How others would hate how he struggled with feeling empathy or feeling anything at all! What if... what if he could be inorganic?

However he didn't really feel like just- going there and ASK, that was too embarrassing! Instead, he sneaked behind Ivrig, and sticked a doodle page he made for him to his metal cabinet using a magnet, running away clumsily as soon as Ivrig turned around. Now, Doe is quite recognisable anyway so, the next day, at the same hour, Ivrig started preaching again but, instead of standing still in the middle of the square, he walked around it until he could locate Doe, stopping right in front of him to ask a rhetorical question and conclude it with "Isn't that right, Notebook?" addressing Doe directly

This is what started it all, Doe couldn't really run away from that anymore and, deep down, it was his plan all along, so this time he would be forced to confront Ivrig and get into the religion

One traumatic family disowning experience later, Doe is now living in the shared households of the LAGOM House, and what do you know, it's the same one where Ivrig also lives in. Doe survives with his scholarship and part-time job money, which is more than enough considering the high sense of community and the other believers helping him out, just like they did for Ivrig. In a way, Doe became Ivrig's disciple, always going to him whenever he was in doubt

Once he reached Ivrig's rank (Shelves and the like) he also chose a cabinet. Most of the believers expected him to pick a library or anything else related to his strong passion for drawing and designing, however, Doe explained his choice saying he based himself off "functionality and affordance" rather than passion and the being easy-to-assemble. Being a student in design, he follows the rules of "affordance", which is "the characteristics or properties of an object that suggest how it can be used. It shows a user that an object can be interacted with.". The main 3 agents that can be interacted with are Buttons, Switches and Sliders/Levers, with the main 3 interactions being Push, Pull, Turn. A good object is functional if designed to be as such, following the rules of affordance. A library is static, it's just a storage. A cabinet is dynamic, it has a door, it can communicate how to use such door and can be designed in many different, artistic and yet functional ways. Moreover, he designs his own cabinet head to be perfectly functionable, removable, and with glasses incorporated. Ivrig is quite jealous of that but he would never admit that out loud HAJHDFJSH

But, most importantly, he is quite the homosexual for Ivrig, but we don't talk about that /SILLY

Just kidding, we're absolutely going to talk about the homos

Doe is absolutely crushing on Ivrig however none of the two are able to read the room, with Doe thinking that his crush on Ivrig is just him blowing his sense of admiration out of proportions, and Ivrig thinking that Doe's obvious romantic hints are just a demonstration of appreciation because he's such a great preacher

It DOESN'T HELP that, while venting/gossiping to each other about their lives, Ivrig mentions the scam incident, where he truly believed to have met the girl of his dreams. Now Doe thinks Ivrig's straight </3

Soon enough, however, Doe can't resit and, while they're alone and Ivrig is sharing some random fact he knows, he removes his cabinet and gently grabs Ivrig's hands to kiss them since- he can't kiss him due to the cabinet being wielded shut from the inside (for now <3)

Doe and Ivrig are now going through this very simple and fluffy relationship where all they do is just,,, being boyfriends and hold hands that's all <333333

THAT,,,, is,,, until Ivrig does what he does,,,,

Doe takes Ivrig's place as a preacher... however that does not last long as he cannot accept that the one he loved and that actually accepted him could've done such things without a reason. So, in order to prove his devotion to Ivrig he goes against LAGOM and recreates the exact same crime. With the difference that Doe exposes the corpses in a whole ass artistic exhibition IN THE SAME SQUARE that Ivrig used to preach in

When Doe is scheduled for hacking, Ivrig had already been dismissed, so imagine seeing your boyfriend on the news before you could have the time to meet him again after getting reformed,,,, augh,,,

Yes cuz, Ivrig DOES remember Doe, all that the BUG erased was LAGOM and his identity connected to It. There might be missing pieces, a LOT of them, but he still remembers that they were in a relationship. However, Doe... doesn't remember much of Ivrig. That is because Doe is a huge people pleaser, he is the kind of guy that is willing to do everything to receive the approval from anyone that even barely shows affection to him. His BUG's outbreak reached its peak due to his denial and desire to receive approval from the one he loved. This resulted into Doe not believing in LAGOM anymore, but also considering Ivrig a charlatan, not remembering much of him in the first place, let alone the fact that he had a relationship with him

Following the headcanon that Captain, Rookie and Unid end up becoming Ivrig's found family, Ivrig doesn't have that many problems going in and out of the HOTFIX building, skipping the security procedures cuz that's their son bitch /silly

So, Ivrig runs to Doe and is immediately struck by the terrifying "Do I know you?" statement </33333

Think that maybe Ivrig went without his cabinet (since I headcanon that after being mindhacked he gets help to remove it and modify it so that he can wear it again and take it off with ease) or left it to Miki or Captain while he waited to be able to visit Doe so he goes back to get the cabinet and wear it again and Doe is like "Ohhh aren't you like-??? That weird ass charlatan?? I followed your preaching and did that bad stuff!!"

Oh well that got worse

So like, Ivrig says "Omg no way I got reformed too I don't follow that god anyway either-!!" and Doe is NOT convinced cuz "Well if you got reformed that's another reason why I shouldn't trust you blindly!"

Ivrig is so heartbroken and asks Captain for advice cuz ofc he would that's his mom now and she's like, immediately in to help and offers to take the guard's shift and watch over Doe instead to talk to him and subtly ask about Ivrig and what he thought about him and if he remembers, which brings in the whole speech about "changing the scenery" (y'know? the same speech she gave to Doctor about change?) cuz yeah Doe is 100% valid for not wanting to listen anyone blindly anymore and become more of his own person instead of being so dependable of other's acceptance, but y'know Ivrig could still care for him nonetheless. They had BOTH changed, that's more than one reason to try again

So they talk again and they figure out that Ivrig doesn't remember shit about his time at the LAGOM House, but Doe DOES and vice versa since, during their time together, they've vented to each other so now they remember facts about the other person but not about their own lives. Even if it's very minimal they share what they remember about the other, tho Ivrig doesn't specify anything about them being together since Doe doesn't seem to remember that at all

So this time, it's IVRIG trying to send hints in the clumsiest way possible and Doe NOT catching them at all <3333

AUUGHHHH I love the gayyssssss

Ty for listening to my homosexual rambling (it will happen again) <3

what’re some of your favorite AUs? Mine would probably include Trojan, GHSH, Synchronic, and Digital Guardian. I’d add my own but… that’d be kinda cheating, wouldn’t it LMAO

HELP I DIDN'T NOTICE THIS </3

I think I've answered this kind of question before but I can totally do that again!

I don't really have a fav one. I'm not really fond of the Troyan AU tho.. it's kinda uncomfortable for me due to the themes it goes through but the rest are cool! I love the different Kinito AUs and I love how creative people can be! If I had to choose the one that has significant meaning to me, as I said before, it would be the Sentient Kinito AU by my friend goldenstrwbrry, I've already said it but really it was the first AU I ever came across and it was my inspiration for my main AU!

AAAAAA!!!!! THE SILLY THE STUPID CRYING SOBBIMG AAAAA!!!!

/VPOS

Silly doodles from today, top one is my friends oc in scenario @the-autumn-apple-artworks and bottom is my friends in pressure @asteix0 @pacifyai @divineruins00 AND MY WIFEEE @omuricebreakfast !!!! SORGY FOR ALL THE TAGGING

I'm happy to hear !!! From both of you !! Right now I'm loving it really and my friends are all helping me out. I have another character from the same universe that is inspired by Metal Sonic instead! Metal is a bit of a Silver and Espio situation but I know a bit more lore lol. The universe is set in the Advent NEON game which is a Sonic based game so by all means it felt more than due for me to get the knowledge either way in order to get a better understanding of both the settings and my characters. I'm currently writing the lore doc with my sibling and will continue to do so as I play and read more about Sonic and media alike! All while excitedly waiting for Advent NEON to come out this year !! Side note, I'm starting to love the idea of Golfball having Sonic blogs, so have a doodle as a thank you! I'm all hyped up to scroll for more essays while I play the games!!

Hallo! Sorry for the prob long ask that I'll end up writing, I'm a bit of a yapper! Hope I don't disturb you while busy!

I've always been interested in Sonic since I was a kid but never enough to go full brainrot about it. Like, I remember forcing my parents to wake up earlier so that I could watch Sonic Underground every morning before kindergarten, and then equally force them to watch Sonic X every day on YouTube on the SmartTV during lunch. But that was about it, never really played the games (if you count Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Winter Games for the DS lmao) or read the comics. THAT IS until right now thanks to my online sibling and my other friends who encouraged me to explore this fixation that was not allowed to fully bloom. (I started with Sonic 06 like the masochist I am and also because I love Silver but never even attempted to consume a single media of him. Same for Espio but that will come later once I touch other Sonic games after 06)

I apologize for the detour, but what I wanted to say is that finding you, blurredblu and other blogs alike is actively doing WONDERS to my knowledge, and to that I thank you. Especially because one of my OCs is supposed to be an avid Sonic fan (another reason for me to get more into Sonic) and hence mimic aspects of his personality out of admiration and/or coping. TL;DR thank you so much for all your work and essays! The way you and blurredblu speak and explain is exactly how I see Golfball (my OC in quesiton) defending his claims and sharing his knowledge lol! Thank you!

thanks so much! I'm very glad you got something out of my posts. analyzing Sonic is very fun and enriching for me because it helps me understand exactly why I love Sonic so much. I'm sure @blurredblu appreciates the shout as well! they have a way with words and inspired me to write my first essay about Sonic. :)

since you're just now getting into it, your perspective is actually very interesting to me! it takes a while to learn about Sonic so I hope you enjoy the games through means most available to you, and have fun!

I dunno why I posted it on my other blog instead of here must have gotten it mixed up but ANYWAY YAY YAY YAY

BEFORE I GO TO BED BECAUSE I KNOW MY FRIENDS WILL BEAT ME UP

I made a new blog! @autumnapple-juicebox where I'll be posting art and reblogging anything related to age regression!

I wanted to feel a little safer and make a blog just for that stuff so idk it's just to keep myself organized, I'll put it in my other pinned bios

OK NOW I'LL GO TO BED OK???? /DIR

US!!! US!!!! US!!!

TAWOG redraw with my sibby @the-autumn-apple-artworks mwehehehe

I just found out my art got traced and stolen wtf!????

No pretty format this time cuz I'm quite serious and flabbergasted right now

I was looking for some AdventNEON references for a drawing and I found this post

Newgrounds.com

Advent NEON

Illustration by Adelton

As you can see, this guy traced over MY ART, replaced my signature with theirs, and then posted the artwork on Newgrounds

This is my original artwork

Tumblr

Dead account hellooo

School's been pretty hard recently and I'm going on a huge burnout again woohoo,,,,,, yeeyyy,,,, Although, I had enough time to go hyper si

I genuinely don't know if to be disappointed or somewhat proud that I'm recognized enough for my art to be STOLEN

I've already sent a message to them but I don't know if they'll even reply, I've never used Newgrounds (in fact, I found out about this stolen artwork literally 3 YEARS after it was posted </333) so I'll have to find a way to report the artwork myself, in the meantime, this is to demonstrate that, no matter how small of an artist you are, people can and will steal, always keep your eyes open
