DW X MLB OC

@starlightwoofwoof This took me a while, but I gift you my OC, Alga, and his akumatized form, Dionysus! Essentially, how he was akumatized was unironically the exact opposite of Glisten. He was created to be perfect, a gentlemanly role model for everyone, thus making him a statue, since they can't change their appearances. Ironically, Perfect was the one to really hammer the nail down (he ignored Alga, claiming that he couldn't find any insecurity about him), those words stick to Alga, and he starts to internally panic and overthink. One day, an akuma came into his hat, and then boom, Dionysus exists. Dionysus is very odd in a way. His akumatized power is very similar to the Eagle Miraculous, causing anyone who comes in contact with him to suddenly act wild and chaotic, losing all restraints for whatever reason. Dionysus, in general, is very chaotic. He immediately chooses to try and get those close to him (IE: Finn) to join him in his unfiltered party of endless celebration, where he can finally act the way he feels instead of hiding under a mask of so-called perfectionism. Despite Dionysus being chaos incarnate, he's smart, he knows that hey, Lucky Lady's going to try and break his hat, which is why he hides it and constantly moves it around from hiding place to hiding place to make sure she has a harder time. Dionysus' design is definitely going to change to fit the more 'unhinged maniac' idea I have for him.

Alright!

Got the person trying to kill themselves away and now it's finally time t-

Oh.

Huh. I was hoping you all would aggressively multiply for no reason. No matter!

In all honesty and due respect. Milady does not give two shits. She's got way too much shit on her plate right now. She's essentially just done with existence right now. She almost died a multitude of times, one for getting Carnage Shrimpo to calm down, one for almost getting shot by Rodger, and the last because she almost entered the mourning state because Boxton's twisted. If Cuburt wants for her to give a flying fuck right now, then he best get in line, she does not have the time, patience, or correct mental state for this.

While I'm focusing on the Shrimpo thing, may I request your OCs reacting to Cuburts other form and/or realizing it's the same guy?

Mostly just to fill the gap, since I'll be focusing on doodling for the discussion.

Guys Guys please Guys hear me out This is so cute guys please

Im throwing my art out here wow someone will eat it probably

DW X MLB LORE DUMP

@starlightwoofwoof WARNING: SHIT TON OF LORE AND YAPPING

Okay, time for a yap-a-thon for the hell of it. Glisten and Alga are two sides of the same coin, if that wasn't obvious from their similar means and reasons for akumatization. Glisten strives to be perfect, to be perceived as some confident, flawless person to others, despite his crippling autophobia and atelophobia. Alga is the opposite. He's tired of being known as this chivalrous gentleman who can't even change his appearance without literally killing himself! He wants to get his hands dirty, to be someone who has flaws, but he can't. Being a gentleman is permanently etched into his brain; he can try, but he can never fully change himself.

When Perfect is in play, he can project his insecurity about his imperfections onto others, forcing them to hyper-fixate on every little mistake and perceive themselves negatively, all while acting like an untouchable god. Dionysus, however, makes it so that everyone completely forgets anything about their worries. It's almost like Trickster Mode from Homestuck; they act so wild and giddy that it's downright unhinged and worrying, especially relationship-wise. Someone could do something to strain a relationship, like, oh, I don't know, break the other's wrist accidentally! (cough cough Dionysus with Finn, cough cough.) When the two of them are de-akumatized, they are essentially forced to suffer the weight of their guilt together. Glisten has the guilt of causing others to akumatize, and Alga has the guilt of harming his friends. Both of them thrust themselves into the same time of coping mechanism while going through this grief. Try to return to that same normalcy beforehand. It doesn't really work, and both of them are just stewing in their guilt. Only when they finally accept that hey, somethings can't be changed fully and no matter what, there's always going to be some bits of you that remain forever, and you don't have to be perfect to be good do they get over their grief and get their respective miraculous, Glisten with the snake Miraculous and Alga with the Dragon Miraculous. In terms of power, both of them are fucking swole. The reasons to become akumatized due to Perfect are slower; the reasons swallow you whole before spitting you out like you mean nothing. Meanwhile, Dionysus' reasons hit you hard and fast, like a freight train. You could blink, and everything fine and dandy before could turn chaotic and terrifying really quick. Admittedly, this is more a reason for someone to be handed a miraculous, but I can also see someone having a panic attack and getting akumatized because of Dionysus. Thank you for coming to my TED talk.

I see we're making a lot of angst about my boy huh.

My turn.

This is a Nihilego appreciation post! (My favorite lil bean)

What, you expect some random morse code thing again? It's a Nihilego appreciation post. No morse code!

Milady isn't allowed to have any sugar at all. The "Suffering Together" squad learned that the hard way.
