*eats the axolotl and isopod affectionally*
Light creature fan designs!
First off, non of this is canon (except for the eel which is a redesign of the eel in Treasure Reef) but maybe one day…
Read about them under the cut!
Giant Isopod: behaves similar to crabs but twice the size and they live in the deep sea! Some could be corrupted but I love them and don’t want to be attacked by them so… their call is similar to a crab but more “bubbly” and less high-pitched
Squid: big guys! A few are tiny like baby jellies and swim in little schools but the big ones swim on their own. I’m not sure what interactions they could have with the player aside from recharging you (maybe they could leave a light trail like the turtle and eel?). They have sort of a spooky ominous sounding call
Owl: light creatures only found in a few areas in Forest, they only come out at night (like in night mode areas). They have a low call, like a real owl’s hoot, and are around the size of a skykid.
Nautilus: swimming creatures a bit bigger than a skykid, I don’t know what they would do or what their call would sound like. They’re just cool.
Anemone: they don’t have a call, but they’re super special because they can hide you from krill! Based off how clownfish will hide in anemones from predators, krill can’t see you in the tentacles of an anemone (which also provides you with air for breathing underwater)
Axolotl: like in the real world, they can only be found in one lake. You can pick them up and hold them maybe? They have a squeaky call
Sea Slug / Nudibranch: a bit bigger than a crab, they provide you with bubbles and that’s it.
Remora: the moths of underwater, they cling to larger light creatures and the capes of skykids and provide them with bubbles and recharge! They also have a squeaky call
Eel (redesign): now it just looks more like a light creature
I have a few other light creatures I might design / draw, like hermit crabs, leafy sea dragons, some sort of egret, and maybe a corrupted anglerfish that lures skykids in with what looks like wax? Stay tuned!
I'm going to eat it

Bro you cannot just drop prep/jock soap and goth ghost and dip. We need you to give us your brain worms so we can analyze it like a science project
When you have time of course
I will put my worms in a petri dish for you
Soap was an artist! He liked sketching and painting and the act of making art. But he didn't like art essays. The explaining over and over again each detail. Breaking down everything until it felt like a bunch of paint strokes instead of art.
But part of an art degree is a ton of art essays. So Soap went to the museum to write what he needed. He preferred museums to finding art online. A big part of art for him was texture. His preference would've been to touch the art, to feel the paint underneath his fingers. But the assignment specified art from the Baroque period and therefore they had to be older and no museum was going to allow his grubby hands to touch the art.
Soap glanced down one of halls to see if there was anything interesting there when he faltered.
Oh lord.
The man was big. His shoulders. His height. The thighs he had that looked like tree trunks. It was all covered in tight black fabric and silver chains. A work of bloody art himself.
Soap had to hold himself back from wolf whistling.
Once he was done objectifying admiring the man's body, he looked higher up. There was a mask covering the bottom of his face, the only thing visible being his eyes which had heavy eyeliner on them. He could still see the locs of bleached blond hair that surrounded him like a halo.
Soap wanted to paint him.
"You gonna stare all day?" Someone snarked at him and he jumped, glancing at a slightly smaller blond man. He looked at him like he was gross and for a brief moment, he worried he might be about to be hate crimed. The man looked a lot the other one actually now that he was looking closer. Dressed the same way too.
"Aye, what's your fucking problem with it?"
The man's face scrunched. "Ew." He walked away, leaving Soap rather confused but now a bit determined to talk to mystery man.
Pretending to be looking through the paintings, he got closer to him.
Dark brown eyes quickly glanced over at him before glancing back at the paintings.
"Hey. My name is Soap."
"Ghost."
Ooh, he's from Manchester and sticks with his aesthetic. Nice. He'd prefer a not British person, but as far as British people go, he could do worse than Manchester. He glanced at the painting Simon had been admiring.
The Raising of Lazarus by Rembrandt.
"It's a lovely painting." Soap put on his normal charm, acting suave and polite.
"Aye." Ghost gruffed and went quiet again, staring in simple contemplation. His arms were crossed, making already large arms flex.
Soap started to take notes for his assignment. Although he was definitely hoping to score well in more than one ways, he did need to take notes for his assignment.
Ghost glanced over at what he was writing quizzically and Soap answered the unasked question. "I'm doing a project."
"Fun." He huffed and looked back at the painting.
Soap looked down at his chest and licked his hips. "Yeah, it's a good one." He kept writing stuff. "You a college student?"
"Yeah."
"What do you study?"
"Forensics. I'm assuming you're art?"
"Chemistry with a minor in art!" Right as Soap went to mention how funny it was that they didn't share any classes, Ghost interrupted him.
"Wait. Johnny? Johnny MacTavish? We share several classes."
Soap brightened. "Do you dress like this all the time?" There was zero chance he did or Soap would already know his name, address and dick size.
"We have morning classes together. I don't dress up for morning classes." Ghost said decisively. He stretched and shook his head.
How did he manage to not notice the shoulders though at least? The man was huge. He was also several inches taller than Soap and therefore the majority of the class. Maybe if he sat in the back and left later than everyone?
Soap nodded. "Understandable. You look nice."
"Nice huh?" Ghost smiled at him. He could tell cause his eyes scrunched slightly.
"Yeah. Nice." Soap said softly, his chest doing something weird.
They stared at the painting a while before Ghost pulled away to start exploring the rest of the exhibit.
Soap finished up the notes he needed to write his paper and then started to walk with him. He tried to find his opening during all of this.
Ghost stopped at a very specific painting.
ARTEMESIA GENTILESCHI, JUDITH SLAYING HOLOFERNES, C. 1612–1613
The art was... stunning. The red, faded from time and wear, was still beautiful against the white of the blankets.
The women held him down and there was a movement to it that Soap wanted in his own work. His fingers trembled with the want to touch it. To feel the texture of the paint under his fingers. Ridges and bumps and smooth layers of the different strokes.
Ghost hummed. "I don't really get art. It's pretty but some people look at it and it... gives them something. An epiphany."
Soap hummed. "I find touching it helps."
Ghost looked at him, raking his eyes over him. "I see. Do you want to head out then?"
Soap frowned. "Why?"
"You're a piece of art and I'm looking for an epiphany."
no way this is just sesame seeds and sugar
