65 posts
past and present, looped together
recently I've had three ocs living inside my head
a vulture and two lizards that somehow ( I haven't figured out how yet, ) became sentient
the vulture follows one of my slugcat ocs called the befriender, while the two lizards live on their own, the red Liz taking care of the small blue lizard pup
apologies for the lack of art for the lizards, I'll promise you'll most likely see more of these guys at some point ( also my lack of posting will probably continue for a little while )
REF SHEETS
these aren't all of them, but if you want to see all of them check out my artfight!
also yes this is the reason I haven't been posting or doing much answering, but I promise I will get to your request and such ðŸ˜ðŸ˜
Sliver of straw doing the family guy death pose
don't worry, she deserves it in my au
I also realise I've never really shown my sliver design here, even though I love her design, oh well have this ðŸ˜
WATCHER SPOILERS
so I recently realised there is an ancient mask inside spinning tops room!! \/
I assume this spinning top's mask so I drew a doodle of them with it!!
ignore their terrible clothing design though I don't have a full design for spinning top yet
Does arti give the autism man pearls ?
autism man....
anyway yes she does, finding them gives her something to do in the city, and it's also part of the reason pebbles tolerates artificers repeated visits lol
he does also just get them from looking through old documents and data and putting that in pearls, a bit like people archiving lost media, as well as just getting them from others giving him their own stuff they've found
doodle to go with this!!
five web les
the people want more five pebbles,, they ask and shall receive,,
also taking this as my moment to say FEEL FREE TO GIVE ME ASKS OR DOODLE IDEAS!! I love ask's....
throws this at you and runs away
funky little guy
BONUS COMIC \/
there MIGHT be an infestation about to happen you poor, poor, ancient,, ( although not actually I doubt prince can actually infect ancient urban for whatever reason )
ignore the spelling mistake, I know English trust
annoying to understand everything but it's the only way I could think of thats readable
for clarity by 'has not met' for sos, means they have not spoken to them, most iterators do know sos
also my oc is there, she's the purple one that's madly in love with looks to the moon
I love them I LOVE THEM I haven't drawn them in a while too

Getting Over You — Joey Joey Michaels
RIPPLES. THE CYCLE. LORE ( I'm theorising, there is watcher spoilers so everything is under the cut )
throughout both the game and even trailers, you are constantly told and reminded about ripples and how you should view cycles as them
so that's what I did!! here's the diagram I made
here you have two cycles, cycles are a bump in a ripple ( forgot the proper name lol) anyway I've yet to figure out how exactly you get moved to the previous cycle, but it probably has something to do with the void spawn, either way, as time moves on and the ripples expand and go forwards new material is pushed into the plane of consciousness, dust falling from the sky, but as this happens, material is pushed down into where the cycle came from as well 'dissolving' it, you see this as the void sea ( note the void sea you see ingame is still in the plane of consciousness, because obviously you can perceive it, you 'leave' once you enter the egg, which is the edge of the cycle )
also ripplespace, it's just the space outside the ripples, although like in the diagram the watcher only sees the area that mixes with the cycle otherwise, they would cease to exist
anyway I came up with this randomly during math class so sorry about inconsistencies in the diagram,
I'll also probably have to think about this more, to fit in pieces like void worms, void spawn and ripple spawn ( already have like paragraphs of theories on them but it doesn't entirely work with this ) and all that stuff
this is the best piece of rainworld media I've ever seen in my entirety of being in this fandom
glizzzzyyyy
I realised I haven't done one for things other than iterators so here!
pebbles is mad he's short.
Arti and her weird pup
I LOVE THEM I LOVE YOUR DESIGN
new moon and pebbles :^)
watcher spoilers! stupid watcher doodle + small yap
I think the watcher is technically still a pup. forcefully put into the role of a powerful being.
like similar to monks age. but monk isn't a God lol.
this was inspired by this spinning top dialogue
a tasty little god sausage!!!!
yes I'm currently working on a region mod!! suntouched waterfall! it's not anywhere near done though sigh, anyway have this art of it
sorry for lack of posts, haven't been feeling the best this week :((
also last one features my oc if ur confused lol
also, keep in mind that posts will probably be infrequent, and whether I actually do this is still a maybe
I love them can they die
Ive Ebbles
he's a little stupid be nice to him
I'll prob make individual ref sheets for artfight but this was easier.
more info! \/
SOW - shards of whisper
TSW - thirteen silver windchimes
TSG - two strokes of gold
BC - bleeding crowns
SOW,TSW and BC are all in one local group next to moon's local group, but TSW is further away from both local groups
also uhm SOW and BC are the only ones alive in the current times of the au cough.
I'll eventually have these guys on my artfight for more info, or if you want me to yap about them more here just ask me in my ama!
ITERATOR LINEUP!!
we got everyone 🔥 except sliver because uhm I forgot her and also my sanity is pretty much specks of dust floating in the wind right now
apologies for messy handwriting and any spelling mistakes sigh
OC LINEUP IS COMING SOON!!
i drew this cuz I had a shitty day and because I'm totally normal about them
I think my favorite aspects of the watcher (spoilers but you already went through all of it already. maybe tag this for ppl that haven't?? idk just covering the bases so I can say this) is the diversity of the locations coupled with all the new environmental aspects. Desolate Tract and Signal Spires are probably my favorite places. also. ROT VOID WORM. GENUINELY. HARMFUL TO MY PSYCHE HRJGAJAHZAGNGBGH. idk just dumping this here because I'm following you and I need to throw the afterthoughts of the rollercoaster at someone who has beaten it already. still trying to organize all my theories but holy moly is it insane
again obvs, WATCHER SPOILERS
\/
like many others I have mixed opinions on the regions, some of the regions were absolutely stunning, some i liked were desolate track, rusted wrecks and outer rim. but some regions did feel a lot less peaceful as those ones, and I personally felt that some of the regions feel out of place. with the vanilla map you have context but in the watcher all you have is what you see right now. and I think this part of the watcher is brang down even more by the fact some of the spawns are awful, and how you are ACTUALLY clueless on where to go.
currently I think I have my big theories down rn, but yeah it's definitely A LOT to process through and think about
my thoughts on watcher in its ENTIRETY
\/
MAJOR SPOILERS
also some watcher art I forgot to post
the watcher. was one fuck ton of a roller coaster. from the excitement of opening the game, to the annoyingly slow progress, to the absolute devastation of the throne and unfortunate evolution. to finally. the first ending. the past ending
I struggled heavily throughout the campaign, progress feels impossible and gameplay wise it's not the best, but it does make up for it lore wise.
I was absolutely devastated over the future ending and Prince and the rot taking over. but now I've taken the time to think I think it's interesting, I at least believe prince is interesting. the rot trying to replicate an iterator, as that's where it's dna is based. and even more cooler, in unfortunate evolution where the rot replicates VOID WORMS. it's such an interesting concept, but it makes SENSE. iterators are powered by VOID FLUID, of course the rot would also imitate it.
as for the past ending. seeing this ending definitely shifted my view in the watcher entirely, and I don't think without it I would enjoy the watcher the way I do now, it's a perfect contrast to the future ending. you get to see the ancients and how they lived. the echo talks about how they were raised with other children by multiple people! overall, gameplay, the watcher is frustrating and slow and so, so much backtracking without any knowledge of where to go, but lore wise and how it's story is shown? absolutely beautiful. to the point it did almost cry lol.
also I believe the past ending takes place on pebbles! the pearls on the shelves are the same colours as the ones in his chamber! but there is definitely no solid proof. I hope the future updates add onto this side of the timeline more, and we can see how they lived more
rainworld watcher shitpost and some comments \/
HEAVY SPOILERS BELOW
watcher lore meme bc I cannot cope with how rainworld (as the cycles ) ends
you're telling me EVERYTHING just turns to mush? everything is destroyed because of one iterator?. it would have to be one crazy butterfly effect ig.
idk I'm biased cuz it's pebbles and I'm still processing everything too. but honestly I just want to go back to my cosy au where the rot doesn't happen and sunstone make out sessions and its a happy ending 💔
also don't get me wrong the watcher dlc is great btw
