SCRATCHITONE BLOG

✱ 6/19/2023 8:10PM

I said I would update this Blog so here I am laying on my bed like a Schoolgirl and that Business Man from that one meme. Anyway as I said before there are no real rules to this Blog. I'll post whatever I want. Sometimes that can be Art I don't post on Twitter... Development progress or anything else. Before that though can I show you what I got today? Here...

It's a Cardinal figurine. Cardinals are one of my favorite. I just washed it because it came dirty... So that's why it's wet. In the past year I've taken it upon myself to learn Birds and their calls... Now I recognize when a Cardinal is in my backyard. Sometimes Mourning Doves come too. I want to take pictures of them but the screen in my window messes with my camera.

I also love Loons. It may be obvious because... Well. You know. I can't really help it though. A Loons call is my favorite.

Anyway... Now I have something to say about Akahane. More specifically the expansion. I don't have a name for it, and it might as well end up being called "Akahane Academy Expanded". I would like to come up with something better though. Today I made a diagram for Uniforms ↓

I don't really think this will change. I like the general design and it's very customizable depending on the personality of the Character. Regarding the "Delinquent" bit though... I think Masaki would fall into this catagory.

I want to talk about my ideas for the Staff at Akahane. In the expansion there will be 7 important Staff members who each have their own role in the school... They are...

The Headmaster

Mosca is the Headmaster of Akahane Academy. Many things about her are mysterious. Such as the blood-based technology she has built the school around... Her motive if any is unknown, but she will teach you that death is not the end. This is important to her for some reason.

The Headmasters Guard

Friedrich is the Guard of the Headmaster. He is extremely strict and uptight about her safety and rules of the school... He seems to be an adept swordsman. Friedrich is very loyal in nature.

The Pep-Rally Idol

Kekkyu is Akahane's very own Idol! Her mission is to get the Students excited... About... Killing. Her upbeat but slightly sinister personality annoys some people and makes them wish they could kill her.

The Doctor

Hakase is Akahane's... Top Doctor. The only Doctor actually... He preforms surgeries using Mosca's "Technological Method" which brings back murdered Students after each Semester. Hakase is odd and tends to freak people out.

The Teacher

A new Teacher at Akahane... Udagawa-sensei is a replacement for Takahashi... Udagawa is experienced, smart, and even a little cool!

The... Uh...

Takahashi-san was a Teacher at Akahane. He quit because he just couldn't take it anymore... But soon enough he came crawling back. Not sure why... His role at the school is unknown, but... He's there! Some Students still call him Sensei.

The Gravekeeper

Cercueil keeps watch over Akahane's dead Students who rest in the Graveyard behind the school. Her face displays terrifying stoicism, while hinting at a deeper sorrow. Some say she moves like a Ghost up and down the rows of buried coffins...

Some Characters have yet to be designed.

This is important so listen. I want to stop talking as much on Twitter and start posting things here instead. I'll still use Twitter to post drawings and important information I want everyone to know... But other than that I want to limit the amount of things I say on one platform. I also want to say thank you if you take the time to come here.

Thank you.

Today I started working on Togetherness. I don't want to admit it but I'm having trouble visualizing art.

Before I showed you this kind of style I might go for... I don't think that's the case anymore. Most likely I'll end up tweaking it slightly.

✱ 6/22/2023 10:05AM

For a long time I've been having doubts about my skill in Pixel Art. Which isn't good since I plan on making 2 Games this year with that style. If you don't know... Making Tilesets in an RPGMaker Game is a nightmare. Finding a suitable style is also a nightmare. I'm often jealous of Artists who create these things so easily.

As I said in the last post I'm also having trouble finding a style for Togetherness. There are ideas in my head but I'm not sure about them and I know I never will be... When something releases maybe you will like it.
Just know that it never sits right with me.

On Twitter I said I wanted to make weird and useless lists about my Male OCs.
So here's that. It's not all of them but these are my personal RSA favorites.
~~There are other OCs outside RSA that I like even more but not everyone knows of them... And I'm afraid to introduce them.~~ You might be able to tell which Characters I'm attracted to by the way I write about them.

This is how I think each of them would react to a hug...

Aries

If you hugged him first I feel he would be proud of himself for making you feel that way. He might be a little annoying about it but nothing harmful.

Sagittarius

No matter who started it he'll always be a little nervous about it! Since he never had that type of attention.

Libra

He would smell nice... I think he would accept it. He is good with people
and their emotions.

Capricorn

He will threaten you for hugging him first. If in any situation where he started it he will act unhappy. Stubborn.

Gemini

Would feel slightly afraid. He might hate himself because you want to hug him, he will feel like a waste of time and blame himself.

Virgo

Unhappy having to hug anyone that isn't Gemini. Sorry?

J1407B

He'll be happy to be that close to a Human... Will probably be suprised that someone [ Especially a Human ] is not afraid of him. As for physical touch he's a little unused to it.

Takahashi

Will most likely end up crying. He will smell like heavy booze and probably
wont let go.

Hiro

Overly ecstatic! He'll try not to crush you.

Masaki

Happy... But slightly embarrassed. It will be hard for him to let go because of his
[ Over ] protective nature.

Hasegawa

He doesn't know what to think or how to react. He doesn't know what the emotions he feels are, only how to act on them.

Cerebra's Dad

He isn't letting go... Ever. Enjoy your new life.

I have ideas for other sorts of lists like this... Like what they smell like. I think about these things because I'm attracted to Men. It's hopeless.

✱ 6/25/2023 1:09PM

There are some things I have been thinking about. Like I had been asked if I had an Instagram account. Once upon a time I did... So I wonder if I should again. I'm also thinking where I should go this summer. For a long time I've always wanted to see the deserts in Arizona. I come from a place which is usually colder so I feel afraid of that though. This doesn't matter but I figured I'd say it anyway...

Earlier I also made a post on Twitter about J1407B as a joke... But I guess you want that information. I'll write as much about him as I can without giving too much away. I like him a lot so I was looking for an excuse to just talk about him.

J1407B is an Exoplanet from the V1400 Centauri System. It is the Systems only Planet. [ For context... V1400 Centauri is a Star similar to our Sun which J1407B itself rotates around! The process of researching this myself was confusing but feel free to do so as well if you like. ] My Character is a Humanoid Personification of the Planet. Both the Planet itself and J1407B as a Character exist alongside eachother.

He plays a role in the story "Ad Astra". For unknown reasons he left V1400 Centauri and came to our Solar System! Many of our Solar Systems residents find him unsettling because of his ring features... [ Although Saturn has this feature I suppose J1407B is deemed frightening due to the sheer amount of rings. ] Since many are hostile towards him he will be hostile right back. As I said the reason for his appearance in our Solar System is unknown as he refuses to go into it. It seems to bother him and it may be related to memories he is attempting to repress. Our Planets generally dislike him except for Earth! She understands how he feels and offered to let him stay on Earth itself. ~~It might have been a mistake...~~

To put it simply... J1407B is not malicious even if people suspect he is. There are many rumors about him that go around and stick to his consciousness. One such rumor suspects his involvement with the dissapearance of our Sun...
[ This is something for another time. ] Inside this all frustrates him and at times he can be hostile and defensive because of it. Apart from that he's just... Normal? As normal as a Celestial can be. His demeanor tends to be calm and somewhat apathetic although he doesn't mean to come off as uncaring or intimidating.
I think I should address his obsession with Humans... (・_・ヾ

Because he resides on Earth with... Earth... He's been introduced to it's most populous species called "Humans". Earth forbids any fellow Celestials from interacting with them as to preserve their naivety regarding Celestials. He of course doesn't abide by this and has formed a habit of watching them. At first it started with the Television... In which he'd sit infront of for hours. [ J1407B doesn't really know what makes a good TV show. Just that there is Humans in it and he likes that. ] Then he noticed they are outside on the streets. He'd watch them from the window of Earth's apartment complex... It was similar to the TV he thought. Soon enough he wanted to get closer. Earth told him to mind his business and not to mess with them but this is something he could care less about. Now he straight up stalks them... Going outside... Following them... He wants nothing more than to talk to one some day. J1407B isn't really aware that this reinforces his intimidating image... It's a strange situation.

As well as liking Humans J1407B has started to adopt some of their behaviors. He smokes cigarettes and drinks alcohol on a regular basis. This has no effect on his body however as he has no Lungs or Liver. [ Celestials have different internal anatomy from Humans. ] He likes to do this because he thinks "This is a thing that Humans do" and "I am being like a Human". He is unaware that these things have a negative effect on Humans normally and that smoking or drinking can even kill them... Sometimes I ponder what would happen if he were to catch certain feelings for a Human.

In the event that this happens I think it would be a little frightening... On the Humans side of things at least. J1407B hasn't much experience with romantic types of feelings so he might feel confused. Naturally he would stalk that person and eventually make it his goal to talk to them. I think this would happen in the most horrific way possible... [ Like backing them into an alley or some eerie location not really realizing how fear-inducing this must be for the Human. ] Eventually if he were to get along well with a Human in this way he will be genuinely happy about it. He is a Man who's been targeted by our entire Solar System for essentially no reason, many aspects of his life make him upset. So this Human would be something he would look forward to. I think since he loves Humans so much... Should he have one of his own [ Not like a Pet. ] he would be a little overbearing. He will ask questions or get a little closer than he really has to.

This is much longer than I originally anticipated. I hope this information is interesting enough, I'm happy I had an excuse to talk about him. There are other Characters of mine I'd be more than happy to talk about in this way... But those Characters aren't properly introduced. They come from more toned down ideas. Normal Human Characters. Maybe some day if you want.

By now I think you know my primary OC Universe called The Red Space...
Well I think now is the time to say I have more than that! I don't know if it's too interesting, sorry... They don't quite have names but maybe some day they will. One of those Universes is Akahane Universe which is separate from The Red Space but loosely connected. My current Universes are...

The Red Space

The Universe created by Cerebra. It holds many Worlds... One of them being a Solar System similar to ours.

Akahane Universe

A Universe loosely connected to Cerebra although it is unknown how. In this Universe there is a school with the mission of educating "Immortality"!

Our Universe

The Universe we live in. There is nothing fantastical about it and all Characters tend to be normal Humans. This is the one I love the most.

Unnamed Futuristic Universe

A Universe where a mysterious disease is slowly taking the Human race. To survive amputation is common and bodyparts are replaced with mechanical ones. Some "Humans" have no organic features left.

That last Universe is a relatively new idea. I think they are on the brink of Apocalypse and there is some unknown threat linked to the disease. An Organization has been put together to fight against this.

I also think there is a new technology where Human conscious can be uploaded to a Hologram. This would be used in dire situations like death, and the Human would live on as a Hologram. Don't ask me how this works this is fiction. This Universe is a World of Apocalypse and Robotics and Holographic remains of life fighting for their Planet.

Anyway... There are Characters of these Universes that I haven't introduced. If you'd like me to... Just let me know. I love them but I am afraid that RSA is your point of interest. Also I had the Grimace Shake. It was pretty good.
