Ok, I'm going to talk about Ollie and Lucky Against the World and No Flash Photography Please because I cannot stop thinking about them and I will lose my mind if I don't tell. I love them so very much and both proects are still very much in development. Against the World is still developing their personalities and the puzzles and Photography is still missing most of the cast.

Despite Against the World being around for.. a while, I haven't done a whooole lot of work on it and there's a lot that needs to be done. I am so very excited to work on both projects more!!

Right, so the infodumping.

So Against the World is a about these two families that grew up together and they're joined to be like one big family and they go camping for Ollie's birthday one year and while they're out, Oliver (Ollie) Hightower and Elliott (Lucky) Wilkinson, do a little birthday photoshoot for him. So while they're walking around, they see these arrows on trees and they weren't there last year, so obviously, being a couple of 19 year olds, they decide to go exploring! It leads to this staircase, and they take a few pictures before chilling on top of it for a little bit, before being attacked by somthing they don't quite understand. When they wake up, they're in this bright, colorful world. So they have to try to navigate this new world, where they start changing, it gets harder to remember the real world, they meet strange people, and everything seems to be against them. At the same time, their siblings have to try to talk to the town's cryptid to solve the mystery of the stairs and help Ollie and Lucky escape. The kicker? Time moves faster in the stairs world than real life! And the cherry on top? They can only talk to them at night, AND they can't let their parents know!!

During their adventures in the stairs puppety world (the stairs world is puppets btw), they encounter a house. So Ollie and Lucky go up to maybe get help with something. This is where the two stories meet.

In No Flash Photography Please, a group of puppets in the stairs world just finished a show, and need to think of something new fast, to entertain the world around them, to buy their safety. They have no ideas, so they sit around a table, brainstorming and idea bouncing. Something important to note about the stairs world is that people usually encounter the houses when they've forgotten most of their real life. So, the newcomers are immediately accepted as a house member without a problem. Due to this, the house gets crowded really fast! So while filming a show for the world, the Photography crew are also working on building their little neighborhood. Also important to note that the camera is a puppet. And they can duplicate themself, and can not ever stop recording. So there's a knock on the door, while the household is having breakfast. They open the door and see Ollie and Lucky, and as per usual, they try to welcome them into the house. Usering them to sit down and get something to eat. Ollie and Lucky decline because they're going to leave soon, but they just need help with something. So this little exchange gets physical. Just a lot of grabbing to get them to come in and shoving away. In the big mess of everything, there's a flash of Lucky's camera, and then a thud as it falls, and Ollie and Lucky retreat. This has never happened before, and so they're all very much confused. So they pick up the camera and the printed picture and see that the people in the camera don't match them. They take another picture, with flash, and compare it. It once again doesn't match. It's the same pose, but different people. So obviously, this becomes the show. Solving the mystery of the camera, even though no one really cares why it's different.

I don't have a lot of the cast of Photography figured out yet, as it's a lot newer than Against the World. But I was going to lose my mind if I didn't tell someone. Also I kinda want proper documantation of it. According to my logs, I started Against the World on May 13th, 2022. And Photography on March 15th, 2023. There's a whole lot I need to do, but perhaps I'll be able to share the journey with my tumblr as I go!! I really wanna draw all of the Against the World cast, make the rest of the Photography cast, start learning animation and anatomy, and start learning how to sew!! So I have a lot of very big projects going on right now!! On top of job hunting, moving out, and my Luigi cosplay!! AND wanting to get frogs!!

Obviously, some projects are less important than others, but they all hold a special place in my heart, and I do hope to achieve them all. I am so very excited to get stuff done and share my progress!!

Something I noticed about myself is that I don't ask for help or get people's attention in the proper way. Instead, I stare at them until they ask if something is wrong or if I need anything, and then I'll ask for help.

I do this at work too, which has posed to be a bit problem. Because I'll be doing electrical work, and then I see something that I need help with, and then I'll just stare at the nearest member of my crew until they notice me staring.

Another thing about staring that I do!! I make aggressive eye contact when talking to people. I really like eye contact. I don't know why.

And then when I start talking, I talk with my eyes. Like I look absolutely everywhere when I'm the one talking. But when I'm listening, I make the aggressive eye contact, or look at something else if I need extra stimulus.

I made a thing and I'm actually really proud of it, even though it was rushed and I should be doing other stuff.

It was to respond to someone saying we could commit a war crime in a server I'm in!

Bodies aren't really my thing, I don't usually draw them. I don't think I'm all that good at them, but that's ok! This was fun!! Even if the anatomy doesn't really make sense to me!

Oh! And here are some alts:

And the background, which is just a bunch of explosions smashed together!

If I cared enough to go back, there's a lot that I'd fix.. But I don't wanna do that, soooo

So something about me is that I really like puppets. I grew up on puppet shows. My puppet interest comes in phases, but it always comes back.

I also really like to write!! Currently, I have two big stories in the works. There's Ollie and Lucky Against the World, which I posted about before. I deleted the side-blog for it, because I kept changing it. That one has a bit of puppetry.

My other is No Flash Photography Please, and that one is completely puppets! It actually crosses over with Against the World at one point! This one was really made to expand upon the secondary world I'm making.

One thing I'm historically bad at is character design. I can make stories and personalities all day long, but the designs give me lots of trouble. I'd love to share them here if I had them. But I'm working on it!! Trying my best!

I want to post about the stories more, but I'm worried about spoilers, but I also just really wanna ramble about it, haha! Maybe someday I'll tell you about it.

OH HOME SWEET HOME TIME TO RAID THE FRIDGE!!!!!!!
