Shitposting Rave OOC

Huh. Kohaku is a Knight apparently.

TIL

 

knight party in the raaaaaaaaave
self sacrificial bullshit up in hereeeeeeee

 

So Lonan's a chiang-ku, an Actual Dragon. He's also in "fuck everything that's not 100% human" America: the Coalition States. Being a dragon who wants to get anything done is next to impossible as a dragon. Most dragons can shapeshift naturally but for a few hours tops, but the chiang-ku mastered the art and can live full-time in another shape. It has to be bigger than a cat and smoller than their True Form, but other than that they can perfectly mimic any species indefinitely.

EXCEPT they still weigh as much as a dragon. Cat shaped? Don't jump into anyone's lap or you'll break their legs.

Because of the physics involved with the BOOM GUN, glitterboy feet have a 2 foot metal pylon that, when they fire the BOOM GUN implant themselves into the ground so the sheer force of the recoil doesn't send the entire 1.2 ton mech flying on its shiny ass.

You need both pylons working to do this. On an unmodified mech the gun actually won't fire unless both pylons are deployed.

Lonan's left pylon is broken- completely broken off. He's 'fixed' it so the remaining moving parts are always in 'deployed' position, tricking it into thinking the pylon's deployed when he fires. The only reason he doesn't go tumbling ass-over-end every time he fires the gun is that his dragon-stuffed-in-a-human-suit weight is holding the glitter boy down.

 

i love that oh my god your characters are all such good shit goddamn

quoting myself because there is no better way i can sum up dave lalonde, my beautiful garbage boy

 

the background stuff is all Rifts and the pylon idea was dad's but I'm glad you like them -rolls-

 

Having the sturdiest, most nigh-indestructible mech is also his cover for why he's dragon-tough. He survived the explosion because GLITTER BOY, not because he's practically a tank himself! No he's 100% organic human, made from scratch!

 

here's some mostly accurate-ish references for purple!dave and pink!karkat, btw

 

Congrats, the babbyjets think the glitterboy is an individual person who's just letting Lonan do all the talking :p

 

pink!karkat tries so hard, he really does, but his grasp on the problems with the hemospectrum...it's Not Great

 

Farrat is actually pissed off now. This amuses me so. He doesn't care if you insult him but don't call his girlfriend/lab partner xenophobic or a cheetostick.

 

Updraft is not quite ready to fight god but he's certainly ready to yell at him.
Just not in Front of the kids.

 

I mean what, did you expect chroma to somehow be a beacon of kindness and understanding about somethign that has been ingrained in her head as "Law We Must Abide By"? :P

 

Primus is honestly trying to poke him into yelling to get it over with
He's been yelled at before, he knows nothing he can say will actually do any good so he just wants it to be done with. xP

 

Lysanders understanding of science is a bit out of date.

 

ms castor's isn't exactly up to spec either

 

Today on Shit I Just Made Up... Do not expect to actually find these, space robots have run into space birds occasionally.

 

shhh it's adorable.
Also i mean there's tentacle beasts out there that people refer to as 'Swans' so like....

 

Me: *makes up some sort of candy that is red, orange and pale*
Me: .... fuck that sounds delicious i want it

Let's ust pretend ths is an alternian specialty item i have no idea if this actually exists (spoiler: probably not)

 

me: i'm going to name this random background character... laelia. wow, so Original
me: wait that's just @Laeto and Aralia mashed together

 

I mean the names come from entirely different sources (one's a plant common name, the other a relevant Latin word), so if you wanted a portmanteau it probably would be unique :P
