The Promised Poppy Playtime Doodle

They finally decided who was the older brother

Welp, gonna go watch the movie. Does anyone know if it's on YouTube or something?

Btw I probably should’ve asked this sooner, but do you have any fruity HCs for the turtles? And do you want to be canon in Mutant Mashup? I have my own, so I’d like compare. I’ve always found seeing other HCs fun

I do actually! I didn't want add any relationship preferences unless you were okay with it so I'm glad you asked!

2012 boys:

Leo: Bisexual, he/him (I heard he had a man crush on Captain Ryan which is just so on point)

Raph: Heterosexual, he/him (canonically has a relationship with Y'gythba/Mona Lisa)

Donnie: Bisexual/Nonbinary, he/they (I think it's funny if he doesn't know he's bi just yet but figures it out as time goes on)

Mikey: Pansexual/Genderfluid, he/they/she (no reason for this, I just like the idea)

Rise boys:

Rafa: Homosexual, he/she (I saw a comic that had Rafa and Leon go do 'Fruity Friday's once a week and loved the idea)

Leon: Homosexual, he/him (how could he not?)

Don: Bisexual/Nonbinary, they/them (personal headcanon)

Angel: Pansexual, he/him (also personal headcanon)

I'd like to hear what headcanons you have!

Omg this is actually super neat!!!! The LORE implications are makin' me think.... Hope Aible gets restored someday too, I'd love to see what he used to look like and I'm a sucker for redemption endings.

What if Able was the first to get abstracted?

What if Caine had a co-ringmaster named Aible (AI-ble), but got jealous because the devs liked Aible more, so he messed with the code to corrupt him and make him unusable.

He says "The only thing I don't have control over are your minds." which means that he can't cause or stop a player's abstraction because he doesn't know how the human brain functions. But an AI similar in design to him would be easier to understand, and in turn manipulate.

What if Aible realized it only after Caine did?

What if Caine regrets it?

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.

WOOOOOOOO!!!!

It's Megaman's birthday today and y'know what I decided to do?

Make a post about my au about Roll. XD

Well, sort of.

Fr though, I really do love the Megaman franchise. It's one of the main reasons I draw today and want to get better at story telling. I honestly would've made a full drawing instead of a handful of doodles, but life gets busy and I need my sleep.

Anyways, last time I posted I showed you guys this design I came up with for Roll's armor.

This time though, I wanna talk a bit more about Rock's part in the au because despite what I say, he is still a main character in the au.

Doodles under the cut.

First I had to get a good grasp on who Rock is as a character before figuring out what he'd be like in the au. Canonically, he's a kind, courageous boy, with a strong sense for justice and is very polite towards others but is a little naive.

With that in mind I think he'd largely be the same in the au, only difference being he's more protective of Roll and does his best to be the responsible one. However being responsible does mean he's a rule follower, it makes Rock feel guilty.

Despite the new protective streak though, Rock definitely knows Roll's willingness to wreck Wily's newest machines like there's no tomorrow, which does worry him a bit, but he's very glad she's on his side.

This actually brings up a theme I want to incorporate: opposites complimenting each other.

Rock truly believes in Dr. Light's dream and wants it to become reality, on the flipside, Roll's more concerned with things happening in the moment. Rock absolutely hates fighting, Roll finds it fun. Rock is more quick to accept obstacles as they are, meanwhile Roll always looks for another way.

That last thing actually leads me to bringing up an old concept from an entirely different au. Because Roll always looks for another solution, what if she managed to befriend some of the bosses from some of the games?

Rock wants to stop fighting and actively tries to dissuade the robots he fights, but accepts it as inevitable because he doesn't see another option. Roll however is more empathic to other robots issues and unlike Rock is too stubborn to give up on finding a different way. Through her empathy, Roll may be able to dissuade robots from fighting by reaching out a helping hand.

Obviously, this doesn't work for every robot master, but it will work for some, and it's this that gives Rock hope throughout the many battles he and Roll find themselves in.

It's the main reason he keeps putting the armor back on when Wily comes back with another plot. As long as Rock has Roll to fight alongside, there will always be another way. Maybe one of those ways will lead to the peace they both want.

That's just Rock for now, there's still even more to think of. Like Protoman.

Much like Rock, Protoman is largely unchanged with the only difference being that he is more willing to show up and spend time with Rock and Roll in a mentor sort of role.

This is because with both of them in active fighting roles, they're gonna need some training. This happens after the twins beat Wily as a team for the first time, so before or after MM3. Blues helps Rock with aim and difficult jumps, while he helps Roll come up with new ways to use her broom. They all also do team exercises so they can fight more effectively, but they don't always accomplish their goals. Blues is a tough teacher and the twins ended up running back to Light Labs after one of them collapsed during training.

They were so freaked out after the first few times it happened. One time they both passed out during training, dw Blues carried them home as a good big brother should.

There's still more to think of with this au. I have a lot in mind, including merging this au with that Megaman X au I've been thinking about. Y'all will probably know which one it is, I have very few au's here.

Overall, Rock and Roll both want peace between humans and robots, they just have different mindsets that influence how they go about it individually. That's why I think it's so important that they fight together.

With that said enjoy this final doodle of Megaman and Sunstar. I like to think that Rock, with Roll and Rush's support, managed to find a way to save Sunstar in this au and the two became buddies.

Sunstar really likes his little friend, but not nearly as much as Mercury likes Roll

She's his favorite.

True. I couldn't stop myself from drawing her

I'll fix her shoes another time

New video that talks about the merch for The Amazing Digital Circus just came out-

One scene in it also reminded me of this doodle I drew a while ago-

Surprise doodles I forgot to post!

I wanted to take a nap but couldn't because I don't want to screw up my already skewed sleep schedule

Random idea for Mutant Mashup: Red might be more anxious about being left alone than canon.

Canon Rise Raph had his bros, April, and his dad. A limited group of people, but that combined with the isolation meant that Raph only had his family as people he could trust. However, I think Raph got too reliant, being around his family to the point where if any of them leave Raph alone with his thoughts, he starts to panic.

I might be reading too far into this but that's just my reasoning for why Raph goes savage in Rise canon and I'll be extending that headcanon to Red in Mutant Mashup for now. Might change later.

The reason Red would be quicker to go savage when alone is because he has even more family which meant that Red was never really left alone. He was pulled in all directions by both his brother's and his cousin's and while he did have DaVinci there to shoulder some of the weight, at the end of the day Red didn't get a lot of time to himself. Red didn't mind that though and was happy to spend time with his family, he just needed to make sure that DaVinci was there to make sure nothing hurt the family while Red was gone.

Savage Raph in this au largely acts the same as in canon but calms down immensely once DaVinci inserts himself into the situation. Vin likes to keep clean and his wears his signature blue often so while Red won't recognize Vinnie immediately, he does recognize the color and feels safer as a result. LaceFace is still the main thing that snaps Red out of his savage mode.

I still want to think about this a bit more, not confident in enough with Red's reason to go savage mode when left alone. For now though, this is just an idea that doesn't have to be added into the Au rn.
