So I was finishing up playing in the latest Splatoon 3 Splatfest, and during this I learned something during the end of match celebration animation. Sometimes adjacent Inklings/octolings after their celebration pose they will fist bump. It was so cute and I wasn't expecting it!
I honestly hope more of this happens because i find it cute.
(Slay the Princess(joke)AU(????))
(You’d think Narry would be happy that Quiet is a kid(aka easier to guide), but unfortunately for him he has morals and a fondness towards children)
I have a new sillyest thing I've had to ask my base mate In Minecraft.
"Bad (part of my friend's user name), why is there a sheep in my room?"
Yes, I actually had to ask this. I was dropping something off in my room, then suddenly, red sheep.
It wasn't even related to what my base mate was doing (I.e. getting a pair of cows into our basement since I needed a cow), but it seems in the process they got a sheep in my room... I may need to add a door now to prevent more accidental sheep...
Random LMK thoughts
So, I've been randomly thinking about a particular episode from LMK.
Shadow play
Particularly Mac's story of Wukong seemingly killing him.
And, I can't decide if the story is the truth.
Why you may ask?
Because we only ever really get Mac's side.
While Wukong does seem to have guilt related to Mac, there is one thing he never does. Tell his precise relations and back story with Mac. We only ever hear this story from Mac and Wukong only ever really says he and Mac use to be friends (as indicated in the scroll Brotherhood banquet scene) or rivals.
We only ever hear about Mac's death from the monkey himself initially, and later from Lady Bone Demon. As far as I know even Tang did not know about Mac having any relation to Wukong till he met him the first time. So the Six Eared Marquis must have never been mentioned in their version of the Journy to the West.
But, if the battle had been so major, why was it not a part of the journey's story in their universe?
If I had to guess, 3 major things come to mind for why.
The battle happened in seclusion and even the pilgrim's and gods didn't know what happened, and with Wukong being silent no one wrote about this event.
Something led to all accounts of Wukong and Mac's relations and battle being struck from the record.
The battle was not a major battle or was deemed to personal to Wukong by the group and it was never talked about. Which lead to it never being mentioned in legend.
All 3 are viable reasons, But all 3 put forth a problem of whether Wukong actually killed Mac. Why? Because Wukong's guilt could just be related to him hurting Mac instead of killing him or, just as likely, leaving Mac alone unconscious and unable to defend himself.
And what imagery I can find of Mac's scar (because the man seems to have a constant glamor up) Indicated it was more likely a sword or sharp slash wound than a blunt force skull crunch that did the damage.
And with Mac's story indicating Wokong was using the golden staff or the Ruyi Jingu Bang a slash wound would not make sense.
As such, I would like to say Mac is lying, or at least lying in the sense that he does not know the truth.
I think, Wukong possibly knocked Mac out and left him where he was before continuing the journey. And then, someone else came along and decided to use Mac as a puppet by lying to him. After all, we don't know when Wukong's group dealt with the Lady Bone Demon, so, if it happened after Wukong's battle with Mac and the false Mayor and LBD's spirit could show Mac a false set of events. (which she has been shown to manipulate people mentally). Then she could stage it like Wukong killed Mac and she revived him while leaving a bit of herself in him like she did with the fake mayor.
Another piece that gets me is LBD's use of those chains with a spell.
Other than the ghosts that appear at the beginning of the spell, there is no indication their chains are related to the Diern (the MLK universe's version of the underworld). The chains shown in the story Mac told don't count because we can not verify if it as the truth. Also, The ghosts could purely be related to the LBDs powers when activating the spell. Plus the ghost imagery appears also whenever she is possessing or mentally manipulating someone.
In conclusion, I don't think Wukong killed Mac, I think Mac was fed a lie about what happened and he believed it.
If this is true, then I hope either the season 4 specials or season 5 (if it happens) shows us the truth of what happened that day from Wukong's eyes.
I any case, what you all think?
Oh gods, I know the YouTuber even without looking at the video. It's Fireb0rn.
He is awesome!
I stumbled upon this video of five gamers playing Hollow Knight using a multiplayer mod.
There are four hunters and one speedrunner; said speedrunner must finish the game while the other four players have to “hunt” them down and slow their progress until their time is up.
The video was very entertaining for me and got a couple of ideas cooking in my brain (there is a part of where one of the hunters yelled, “HE HAS A NAIL ART?!” with such fear and dread that I had to draw it).
Hornet and Hollow are chilling back at their shared home in Dirthmouth while these anklebiters are brawling in Greenpath.
… I don’t know why this one came to mind so long ago, I just felt like drawing an Underfell Papyrus With a baby brother sans.
it is not my best work, the shading is horrible, but oh well. it got the idea out of my system.
Yes! Go read this fic! It's awesome!

And after a few weeks, the “Our Tangled Web” fanart is back. This time from Chapter 61. Drew Error in his hoodie because he found his old clothes and it looks as though he might be wearing them for a while.
Also
Because they make for a great medium for cat ears. :D
EDIT: WHOOPS! Forgot his glitches. All fixed now. :’D

Nightmare and Dream are like Ink and Error in a way. They are two halves of a balance, where one is hated because of what they represent and the other is loved for the very same reasons.
when I came up with this long ago, my first thought was “ok, they represent sleep, why not have them sleeping seemingly in the states they represent.
and this in the result.
Why is the gang always using Scooby and Shaggy as the bait?
Their not the only ones who could do it!
Loving aww!
