the ghost of christmas past....

[pulsar cobalt]

because i still dont remember if the crystals have any significance

[barren nacelle]

The thing with providence is she is themed around rock and ash. Heating Rock and Ash does not create glass or crystal, it creates a nasty volatile material called Slag.

If anything she should be themed arouind molten rock and lava

The only reason she has crystals is because of the hallow

[dusk bronze]

guys
guys

crystals represent purity

provi's whole thing

[barren nacelle]

same with her pearlwood

[cyan panther]

The crystals are a cool part of her design why would you get rid of them

[rich ginkgo]

and that part is being nuked soooo

[cyan panther]

This is also a thing

[dusk bronze]

her design was made years before she had any connection to the hallow

[valid crypt]

Rule of cool is not always something to follow

[fringe quiver]

Whether something is cool or not is subjective and not a basis for whether something should be kept or not

[barren nacelle]

Genuinely she has no ties to the Hallow anymore she needn't pearlwood any longer

[azure oak]

bro'd probably complain that ravager's fight is fine currently and it doesnt desperately need its rework & redesign

[flat folio]

Because it's subjective, the devs seemingly disagree and think that they're not worth keeping around, and the devs are the ones that have a say on the direction of the mod

[barren nacelle]

Rule of Cool should always come last

[fringe quiver]

Because different people will have different thoughts on what is cool

[dusk bronze]

it's not pearlwood

[barren nacelle]

It looks like pearlwood man

[dusk bronze]

it's just wood

[cyan panther]

There’s the purity thing someone else brought up though, so it’s not just that they look cool they also have a purpose

[pulsar cobalt]

having a bunch of cool stuff is not good because it just becomes a mess of sloppy stuff with no real flow

(kinda like provis current design)

[barren nacelle]

Providence is noisy, that is her biggest issue

[valid crypt]

I forgor
Is providence even about purity or was that old lore exclusive

[barren nacelle]

Her design is convoluted and noisy

[cyan panther]

Christ it’s like talking to a hivemind

[mossy berry]

Current providence wants to purify the world by burning it all to the ground

Iirc

[rich ginkgo]

which makes 0 sense considering she’s the “profaned goddess” (profaned meaning irreverence)

[vivid hemlock]

if you want to talk to a real hivemind
theres a calamity subreddit

[brave star]

Prov definitely needs smoother animation by having her body parts have separate sprites

[dusk bronze]

if everyone disagrees with you maybe examine yourself

[pulsar cobalt]

profaned was a title given to her because

[brave star]

Same with leviathan

[pulsar cobalt]

she wants to fucking kill everything

[barren nacelle]

Hey man maybe you aren't talking to a hivemind maybe you're just... Wrong

[rich ginkgo]

yeah not very on the pure side

[cyan panther]

Nah I’m just starting to think half of you are insane

[dusk bronze]

ragebait

[barren nacelle]

ragebait

[pulsar cobalt]

she thinks its pure but ofc

its not

[barren nacelle]

2/10 ragebait try harder next time

[valid crypt]

Then just leave

[cyan panther]

Not ragebait

[dusk bronze]

yes it is

[cyan panther]

Wasnt gonna talk here anymore anyway

[rich ginkgo]

thanks bye

[cyan panther]

Keep telling yourself that then

[dusk bronze]

lmao

[analog helm]

we are insane!!💖

[flat folio]

This is weirdly heated for a discussion about a Terraria mod design

beautiful screenshot

[azure oak]

good redesign jumpscare

[rich ginkgo]

wait i wanna see providence pre-ascension so badly now

[barren nacelle]

I think people are just annoyed lmao

PEAM

[dusk bronze]

you weren't here last night then

[barren nacelle]

Peam Ravager

[vivid hemlock]

i love my flesh gorilla

[mossy berry]

The true answer is to turn providence’s crystals green to reference how peridot is often made deep in the earth’s mantle #True

[analog helm]

from brick to brick with a cannon to this guy

[winter tiger]

im hoping each class gets more weapon lines/progression based weapons like the biome blade/ark line

similarily to melee in general

[mossy berry]

Hi altraxia

[azure oak]

isnt that happening with the sdfmg?

[summer shore]

I think her having vague human features but twisted and fucked up is really fucking cool

[winter tiger]

idk

[barren nacelle]

I thought that was the fish gun line

Wait

[rich ginkgo]

quite vague for human features

very vague you could say

[barren nacelle]

https://tenor.com/view/patrick-stupid-drooling-patrick-star-spongebob-gif-12221001666588210206

I feel like this

Outstanding comment on my end

[winter tiger]

one example of these which i loved was the onyxia, a shame its kind of a short weapon line though, pretty appropriate

[barren nacelle]

Orios hit me with a rock

[azure oak]

🪨

[summer shore]

The gods that have public redesigns are so human like

I wish they were more fucked up like provi

[winter tiger]

im hoping the devs can get new future content finished so they can focus on reworks and resprites and whatnot if thats what theyre focused on

[dusk bronze]

almost as if they were human

[dusk bronze]

crazy

[rich ginkgo]

yeah i agree with this

like

[barren nacelle]

This will be Providence in 2013

[rich ginkgo]

an ascension shouldnt be turning a normal human into a giant fucking moth shaped boulder on fire with zero human resemblance

[fringe quiver]

Do any of them have actual redesigns tho

[rich ginkgo]

xeroc

[fringe quiver]

Well ig there's ravager yeah

[rich ginkgo]

no

[summer shore]

I meant designs not redesign

[rich ginkgo]

what am i saying

[fringe quiver]

oh oop

[summer shore]

but still like

[mossy berry]

Xeroc is perfect ascension though anyway right

[fringe quiver]

It'd be neat to get another fucked up nonhumanoid god
Maybe even a benevolent one

[lapis oak]

why not

[fringe quiver]

It'd be interesting to see a non-humanoid god that isn't a bad guy since

All of the ones we have rn are

[mossy berry]

I’d be a bit weirded out if the slime god was suddenly extremely humanoid

[fringe quiver]

Slime God being non humanoid is like its whole thing really

[vivid hemlock]

yeah

[fringe quiver]

he is john abstract design

john amorphous blob

[rich ginkgo]

because it’s an ascension not a disfigurement

[vivid hemlock]

providence imperfectly ascended

so this is to be expected

[lapis oak]

that's not the law

[summer shore]

they were human yes but they also ate a dragon soul to become something else and I just feel like the transformation isn't as meaningful if they just got the powers and still retained the same human body

[fringe quiver]

Ascencions can disfigure you depending of certain conditions

Depends on the god really

[rich ginkgo]

she still looks

really weird

and messy

either way

[fringe quiver]

Slime God, Ravager and Providence all look very, not human
Otonilou, Tyrian and Silva are basically unchanged from what they previously looked like

[rich ginkgo]

not in a “oh yeah she’s supposed to be messy” way i mean like the quality and readability of her

[uneven gate]

her sprite is lowkey kinda ugly

like Yharon tier

[fringe quiver]

So i suppose on that sense there's actually a healthy balance

[vivid hemlock]

you can NOT compare providence to yharon

[rich ginkgo]

i kind of see it

ngl

[fringe quiver]

I agree that her design is kind of messy i just don't think her being more humanoid would really fix that

[winter tiger]

i love that we're getting new arsenal stuff

[vivid hemlock]

nothing even comes close to yharon

[rich ginkgo]

as

[uneven gate]

calcone maybe

[fringe quiver]

calclone yeah

[uneven gate]

shes also ugly

[fringe quiver]

probably the closest

[rich ginkgo]

cv

[uneven gate]

and her meatball looking brothers

[rich ginkgo]

signus

[winter tiger]

i love upgrading the decryption computer and using the like draedon technology thingies, and also since like most of the arsenal weapons are pretty useless 😭 (this might not be true since maybe they arent useless but later in game)

[mossy berry]

I think providence’s parts like the head and shoulder guards and rib cage stuff like that being pointed out to me yesterday actually makes the design a lot cooler in my eyes

I do want the different parts to be a bit more clear to see, though
Which feels more akin to a touch up

I really like the crystals and dislike the roots but that’s entirely my subjective bias and don’t think either are necessary components or anything

[vivid hemlock]

okay this is true

[winter tiger]

made this in my infernum playthrough pre hardmode

gulp

[uneven gate]

what does the roots and the tree stuff on providence symbolize

[lean relic]

my eyes this truly profaned fire
rock part isnt done yet

[rich ginkgo]

who knows

[uneven gate]

does anyone have their interpretations

[azure oak]

most arsenal stuff is gonna get reworked eventually anyways

[summer shore]

Ash is good fertilizer

[ionic folio]

Wait

Are you

[winter tiger]

^^

[ionic folio]

Manually paintbucketing it for the palette change?

[mossy berry]

Is that like that actually true

[summer shore]

Idk

[lean relic]

no lol im using auto select then brushing it

[mossy berry]

I assumed ash would be terrible to consume since it’s cancerous

[vivid hemlock]

its true

[summer shore]

Well plants don't really have cancer

[lapis oak]

ash is good fertilizer

[uneven gate]

maybe ash has some nutrients that plants can suck out of it

[summer shore]

Afaik

[lapis oak]

that's why natural wildfire is good

[mossy berry]

But it being bad is based on humans shouldn’t eat ash so like

[vivid hemlock]

slash and burn is a common way of fertilizing the ground for crops

[mossy berry]

Huh
Interesting

[vivid hemlock]

also volcanic ash is pretty good too iirc

[analog helm]

tbh they should just make prov's rock parts look more like shaped armour and not boulders(closer to what it's like in the old sprite), make the crystals a bit more blendeed in and pull the shoulders further away from the head to avoid confusion
methinks that'll fix the unreadibility probably

[ionic folio]

Have you heard of this sick little button known as "Contiguous"

[lean relic]

im basically auto selecting same color

[ionic folio]

Ok nevermind, tf is this program?

[lapis oak]

[ionic folio]

Aseprite is goated

[lean relic]

[ionic folio]

Huh

About twice as big as the player is pretty big idk

[lilac mountain]

I mean he's technically an upgraded destroyer. Streamlined

I betcha the armor is getting replaced by the profaned guardians set

[barren nacelle]

I think it's that yeah

Uelibloom seems like a cool concept and I feel like I'd like it much more if

1. It was actually distinct from the 2 other generic plant bars

2. Memorable in design

[vivid hemlock]

what you like is not always reflective of what the devs like, and the current exo mechs are surely a thing to defend

[fathom girder]

The current exo mechs are uh

okay

compared to the rest of the mod's bosses

it'll get far better with any reworks though I can guarantee you that

[hasty tangle]

i like basecal exos but i admit theyre not that good from a design perspective

they dont really have interesting synergy together or interesting patterns

[fathom girder]

Lucille outdid herself with her exo rework ngl

The uh, most recent one specifically

[cobalt wharf]

there is a lot to criticize with that rework in particular tbh

still better than basecal obviously but yeah

[flat folio]

It lacks substance

And suffers from spectacle without mechanical backing with the more fancy attacks (e.g. the Ares laser where the real threat is just some rockets falling down)

[cobalt wharf]

i dont know what the substance argument is but yeah

i think the second issue is easy to fix with more extensive testing though

[rose laurel]

As I always say

The Exos are basically lobotomized

Artemis in particular

Also recently I realized that Blender and Ohio are basically the same attacks

😭

[lyric trellis]

I mean they’re lobotomized but it’s not like they were good before the lobotomy either

[cobalt wharf]

moon lord deathray but
a. 8 of them
b. rotates more

[hasty tangle]

ehhh, i dont think theyre that similar

for ohio you can do a really right circle and hug the pivot point

[valid crypt]

for a while i thought ohio was thanatos

[hasty tangle]

for blender you need to carefully balance your distance from the pivot

and also blender isnt easily invalidated by rod

[storm timber]

yoo what the dev role color is cool

[hasty tangle]

instead, its invalidated by just intentionally enraging ares

[storm timber]

didn't know you could make it glow like that

[naive ice]

Tf is your role

[lyric trellis]

Don’t enrage Ares, he’ll turn red and angry and you can still just fallgod him but ignore that

[storm timber]

it means I'm a fossil

[naive ice]

Which one? Defiled soul or dead inside

[hasty tangle]

both

[storm timber]

blender is my favorite exo special attack for sure

[hasty tangle]

yeah, it is the most interesting one of the three for sure

instead of just "stand still" or "rod"

[storm timber]

I miss when twins used to have their special attacks at the same time

[naive ice]

Well what does each one mean individually

[hasty tangle]

defiled soul is for defiled mode nohits

dead inside is for death nohits

defiled was an old gamemode that removed all wing flight

rocket boots were still fair game though

[naive ice]

That’s ass

[hasty tangle]

it was definitely a unique experience

[naive ice]

Wait if Dead inside is death no hits what’s Untouchable

[hasty hawk]

[naive ice]

Ohhh

I could never nohit

[lyric trellis]

Iron heart nohits (either the version where it has no effect on nohits or the version where it’s just hardcore for bosses only)

[hasty tangle]

its sole purpose was to make necklace of vexation and old od scales good for nohits

[naive ice]

The fuck is that

[dull heart]

Hi

[hasty tangle]

old iron heart was just hardcore but only for bosses

[naive ice]

Hi DoJ

Dangerously close to DoU

[naive ice]

God removed stuff is weird

[lavish otter]

I'm wondering something! I'm only catching up on old chat stuff now, and the Providence convo reminded me of something, but I feel like getting into that could be a bit annoying since there was already so much discourse earlier and that already ended a while ago, so I'm wondering if it would be

[naive ice]

Armageddon…so just enforced nohit?

[hasty hawk]

yes

[hasty tangle]

with extra rewards

for a while, anyway

[urban cloak]

went from 7 extra bags each kill to 6(?) extra bags only on the first kill

[naive ice]

Fucking burden breaker

[hasty tangle]

it was 10 and then to 6

or ig it was +5

to make it 6 in expert

[storm timber]

burden breaker was fun

[naive ice]

It sounds like a nightmare to control

[storm timber]

who needed teleporters when you had burden breaker

[naive ice]

It should have had it to if you hit a wall with burden breaker on you DIED from the impact

The fuck is a Conference Call

[hasty tangle]

a gun

malice drop from deus at one point

does it still exist?

[urban cloak]

pretty sure it died

id be very surprised if its still alive

[naive ice]

Yeah, you need it to make the Dissemenator, which you need for the Universal Genesis

It’s a tac shotty with 12 Vortex Frags to make it

[lyric trellis]

Nope! It’s very much alive

[urban cloak]

huh
i thought that died with the other challenge items that didnt make it

weird

[naive ice]

Which you add Luminite to for the disseminator

[hasty tangle]

dedicee requested it to be removed iirc

i think they requested it before they were outed though iirc

[naive ice]

Oh I found the defiled feather

[hasty tangle]

are you just going down the list of every single removed item from the mod

[naive ice]

We all know that. I think

[fathom girder]

hey did you know slime god was just a king slime resprite at one point

hey did you guys know that CV was a brain of cthulhu reskin once

hey did

[fringe quiver]

hey did you know dragonfolly used mothron ai at one p - oh wait

[naive ice]

Determination Breaker…Jesus shit

[strong isle]

And add a letter to nohit thumbnails

[hasty tangle]

yes

[buoyant pulsar]

i've always kinda thought this too. like she can't even do anything anymore. but maybe that's the sacrifice of becoming a god

[fringe quiver]

Not all gods go through that sort of transformation

it Depends

[rose laurel]

Also Provi can still do things

I headcanon she just grabs things with fire

If she ever has the need to

[buoyant pulsar]

i really like how the colors pop more. its easier to read than the original definitely

[lavish otter]

Kind of adding onto this, as far as I remember, it has to do with the character of the person who ascended! So you have Tyrian, Otonilou, Xeroc, Silva, etc. that generally stayed like themselves when they ascended because they're tame in the grand scheme of things

But then you have Providence, who was an angry, wrathful person in life, or Slime God who...well I don't think we know what their deal was yet, but it doesn't sound like they were a good person before ascending

[fringe quiver]

Slime God is a character that exists

yup

one of the characters of all time

[vivid hemlock]

cant wait for the super secret slime god lore to be revealed with the statis superboss

[naive ice]

Hah

[mossy sapphire]

im 99% sure they were a fatass who ate auric soul bc tasty yum yum

maybe that was someone else

[pearl sentinel]

that reads like a youtube comment shitpost and is absolutely not real

[naive ice]

YouTube poop ah comment

[mossy sapphire]

idk i think I saw it in the lore channel once

that the guy was a glutton who ate the auric soul because he wanted to eat

[lavish otter]

The soul itself was from the dragon of gluttony, so that could be where that came from

[fringe quiver]

You don't even become a god through eating an auric soul 😭

The dragon was the dragon of gluttony though, probably a fatass

[mossy sapphire]

what

I thought it was consuming an auric soul

[fringe quiver]

yeah through a ritual

not like. literally. eating it

[mossy sapphire]

oh damn im stupid

I thought you just chomp the soul 😭

and go "mmm thats sum good shit right there" before ascending

bc it says consumed instead of something like "absorbed"

[dry whale]

auric souls are yummy

[dusk bronze]

consume and absorb are interchangeable

[mossy sapphire]

"I absorbed the pizza" type shi

[dusk bronze]

i meant in the context of auric souls

[mossy sapphire]

well its confusing

also who tf figured out that absorbing a dragon soul makes you a god

I should probably ask in #lore-discussion

[fringe quiver]

yeah

[naive ice]

I’d say that

Neat that it didn't just die with marnite gear being mostly removed

Lives on through furniture and builder tools :D

[naive ice]

Oh hell ya

[fringe quiver]

Oh i

i remember this thing

world's most nothingtburger weapon award goe sto:

[naive ice]

Marinite is fun

[naive ice]

It seems like it ya

“Satanic Scepter of Death”. Edgy much?

[fringe quiver]

melee sword that fires a generic projectile with no interesting qualities whatsoever and that is dropped from a completely random enemy

🔥

[naive ice]

Yep

Siren Clone?

Sylvan Slasher, a tool for more stealth for people who are impatient

[fringe quiver]

Ok i will say this is kind of cool, atleast in concept

The execution seems pretty b ad though but like

[rose laurel]

INSTAGRADE

🔥

[fringe quiver]

A upgrade to the stake launcher could be pretty neat, seeing as it's a entirely unique weapon with it's own ammo and everything. And it instantly killing vampires is a fun little "upgrade" to its ribbon ability

However uh. Yeah it. Why

Why is it literally on the same tier as the normal stake launcher

Atleast make it like post moon lord 😭

[summer shore]

Is it

[rose laurel]

Well ok it's not an instagrade by Cal rules

But by Vanilla rules

Yes

[summer shore]

Silly

[fringe quiver]

Even then it's like barely after, might aswell be

[rose laurel]

Pumpkim Moon is Post Golem according to Vanilla

But yeah regardless it's

One fucking tier

[summer shore]

Should've made it post dog smh smh

[summer shore]

💥

[dusk bronze]

make darksun post yharon again

[fringe quiver]

The idea is cool but the execution just kind of sucks, both in how early it's obtained and how the effects themselves are kind of boring

[naive ice]

It is neat looking

[fringe quiver]

But yeah something like this could be cool for post moon lord or something

I think those one-off weapons that have their own unique ammo and everything etting like atleast one upgrade is a cool idea

Kinda like piranha gun > barracuda gun

[dusk bronze]

every ammo that's only used for one weapon needs to fucking explode

what was red thinking

[naive ice]

And of course, the classic Yharim’s Simulants, aka, steroids.

[fringe quiver]

I mean i don't have a problem with them tbh

Specially because for the most part

They're only really obtainable if you have the weapon to begin with

So it's not like they'll be cluttering your inventory or anything

[dusk bronze]

have you ever done a pumpkin moon

you get 30 of each gun

[lyric trellis]

Does she know

[dusk bronze]

and the ammo clogs your ammo slots

it clogs your storage

[lyric trellis]

(Moons are also post-golem by Cal rules)

[lean relic]

yknow, late game flamethrowers still using gel as ammo is funny tho

[fringe quiver]

Dude just like

sell it

Also idk what pumpkin moons y ou're doing where you get 30 candy corn rifles

😭

[naive ice]

I mean it’s still fire

[dusk bronze]

it's still bad game design

[dusk bronze]

google hyperbole

[naive ice]

No YOU’RE bad game design

[fringe quiver]

It's bad game design

Source: i said so

[dusk bronze]

do you want me to write a thesis

[fringe quiver]

Yeah

[naive ice]

No

[fringe quiver]

I absolutely do yes

go ahead

[naive ice]

No please don’t

[dusk bronze]

me when the random discord conversation doesn't address every possible topic of nuance

[rose laurel]

Standalone ammo guns are fine really the problem is that they aren't interesting in the slightlest

They're charming ig

[lean relic]

yup i think thats the main reason..

[fringe quiver]

This i can agree with more though

[lean relic]

millions must rework weapons

[fringe quiver]

Stake Launcher and Candy Corn Rifle and the uhh. Pumpkin Launcher? Don't really bring much new to the table

[rose laurel]

They are just reskinned bullets and darts, really

[fringe quiver]

I don't think them having unique ammo is a problem the problem is more so that they're just kind of. there

[rose laurel]

And bombs

[fringe quiver]

Nothing really differentiates stake launcher from like. a bow with piercing.

[rose laurel]

Also why are all three of them in the Pumpkim Moon

That part is quite silly

[fringe quiver]

I feel like that was probably intentional

As sort of a gimmick for pumpkin moon specifically, i suppose

[rose laurel]

Well, as intentional as "Red wanted to do it one day and then he did and never again"

It's a one-off gimmick

That just so happened to be concepted while they were making the Pumpkim Moon

That's how I view it

[fringe quiver]

I can see that yeah

[rose laurel]

Maybe also could've been an attempt at balancing the drops???

[fringe quiver]

That is a very red thing to do

[rose laurel]

Red and Fabsol are similar in the sense that they'll wake up one day and decide to do something for no good reason other than that it'd be cool

The difference is that Red has a wife

[wicked temple]

relusybgteoopjer

[dusk bronze]

yeah
the difference is red is based and fab is cringe

[wicked temple]

wait which red

[lean relic]

which red

[rose laurel]

This is a very layered joke

[fringe quiver]

And also the fact that red pays his developers so that's already much more of a justification for him to even do that

[dusk bronze]

redigit

[wicked temple]

a

[rose laurel]

My point is moreso "Red actually runs his ideas through people instead of plopping them on the game without telling anyone"

[rich ginkgo]

and red is actually a good developer

while fab is a fraud

[fringe quiver]

holy shit

fraudsol

[rose laurel]

😭

Can he be a fraud if there were no fallacies to begin with?

[dusk bronze]

the illusion of fraudulence

[fringe quiver]

Man

I can't wait for sunkern i mean sunk cost fallacy i mean sunken sea overhaul

[rose laurel]

Seriously though, it is a bit funny to me that at least from what I've seen that Red and Fabsol aren't too dissimilar as developers

[fringe quiver]

i even made this fucked up image for it

[rose laurel]

The difference is, unironically

Red is just a good leader

[dusk bronze]

why

[lyric trellis]

Both being named Andrew has always been funny

[fringe quiver]

i don't know man.

[rose laurel]

OH MY GOD

[fringe quiver]

mario vs wario type shit

[dusk bronze]

wait you didn't know this

[rose laurel]

No

[dusk bronze]

yeah
to make it worse fab's old handle was mountaindrew
as if he couldn't get even more cringe

[lean relic]

[rose laurel]

I mean it was 2016 lol

[dusk bronze]

fair

[rose laurel]

God forbid if you knew my old usernames

[fringe quiver]

what's wrong with mountaindrew as a username

that's just a good ol pun

like haha. andrew. mountain dew. andrew

[dusk bronze]

why would you name yourself after the gamer soda

[rose laurel]

(They aren't that bad they're just the absolute apex of dumb child names)

[fringe quiver]

cheese has had many names

probably too many

[rose laurel]

I had 3

Two are old dumb child names

[fringe quiver]

the very first username i've had on the internet that i remember is

[rose laurel]

The 3rd is the one I use to this day

it was then followed by

[rose laurel]

Ok that's not better

[dusk bronze]

anyway i've never really changed my username
my dad made it for his minecraft account that i eventually co-opted

[fringe quiver]

cheese sans fangirl era is not real.

dont worry about it. its not real.

[rose laurel]

My username comes from an OC I made when I was 12

[fringe quiver]

its not real.

[rose laurel]

She had a really damn good name for something I made when I was 12

So I just

[fringe quiver]

anyways after that there was one that honestly lasted a really long while

[rose laurel]

Stuck with it

[fringe quiver]

TheBugfield_Mezo

And from that people started calling me Mezo as my name

[dusk bronze]

the bugs are coming

[fringe quiver]

It stuck for a pretty long while

I think mr balls is the only person that i'm still friends with who i met on that era

[summer shore]

I've stuck with altraxia since the beginning

[fringe quiver]

Mr balls is a ancient being btw

I've known him since i was like 13 and we met on roblox

maybe even earlier

[rose laurel]

Ominous name even though I know them

[fringe quiver]

hes bestie

[summer shore]

Did not know this

[rose laurel]

My friends do joke about the name

[summer shore]

Mr balls lore goes crazy

[rose laurel]

"Haguri" is the first name of the character

"Hat" then comes from me shortening "Hatsune"

Because the thing I had with this character is that she was Hatsune Miku's daughter

[summer shore]

No way

You're telling me hagurihat isn't a hat made of haguri

[dusk bronze]

for some reason just based on your general vibe i subconsciously assumed haguri was a character from a hat in time

also peak lore??

[fringe quiver]

Rebecca is hatsune miku's daughter

[rough vine]

[fringe quiver]

new lore just dropped
