You can hardly regard this chart fondly, mainly because it is just so crap, the purple smudge on the side is the blood of the stupid peasant who made this.
This chart shows the attack routes for all nearby rebelling colonies, Though Troll-Canada is crossed out after the pro-empire party was elected.
Godamnit, why do these fuckasses keep succeeding?!Just stopping by to say YES I LOVE THIS ADVENTURE, the flipped hemospectrum is great

I will completely admit in front of God and everybody that Revolutionary Girl Utena [what was used in the game] is one of my favorite animes because of it's pure crack-filled bizarre amazingness
so based upon the most recent update, i just..idk I had to
but omg no more shojo style ever again, so freaking -hard- x_x

(NOTE: I didn't start collecting the fanart until part way through the thread, so some might still be missing.)
Do.. I.. uhh... against better judgment. I made something.
Here have a thing!
http://i104.photobucket.com/albums/m...quibrideSM.png
Fullsize:
I've been following this story for a few weeks or so now; I'm really impressed, both by the quality of the story and the fast update rate. This adventure is quite honestly moving, and I'm glad to have discovered it.
So I made something for you, just to say thanks!
http://i.imgur.com/qJDG2.gif> Jadzia: begin babbling about how you're super happy to finally meet a witch and begin babbling on how Shaggy had always been right about your fate.
Also, I did this.
@badassPinnacle That Aradia drawing is amazing.
I was sketching the other day and drew some fanart myself. Here is that. Gamzee, Equius, and Vriska:
Jadzia, Feferi: ride clown makeup two wheel device to Eridan.
http://i.imgur.com/1DIUt.gif
Ohhh. The motorized two wheel device.
Why would somebody think that was clown makeup?
As this is a lowly seablood adventurer the only appropriate crime heist movie would be thisFTFYThe Troll A Team? I would watch it....Hmmmm...
Gamzee - The Muscle. Accidentally knocks people out with his juggling.
Nepeta - The Distraction. Accidentally monopolizes the guards' attention with her cuteness.
Sollux - The Hacker. Accidentally(?) knocks out the lights and opens all the doors while fucking with Eridan.
Jadzia - The Driver. Accidentally provides a swift getaway with her motorcycle.
Eridan - The Leader. Accidentally cobbles this mess into a working plan.
We can totally make this hapen.
Also hi, big fan of the adventure, love it!Sir and/or ma'am, consider your challenge accepted!
http://blogs.warwick.ac.uk/images/ms...&maxHeight=600
Just so you know, I've spent perhaps the last four hours reading this whole fanadventure and I just love it to death and back. I adore the liberties you have taken with creating such new ideas and I LOVE the plot and the art and how adorable everything is, and i love how you've incorporated so many of my favorite ships into this, it's like you have been inside my head the whole time and i don't know what to do and i just want to cradle this whole thing in my arms and write sagas for it and draw masterpieces for it. I'm not even at the end of this thread, I still have some pages to go, but oh my god, I just wanted to let you know that I have just enjoyed this whole thing so much. You made me like things I didn't know I liked. You actually inspired me, too, to be a better writer and artist in general, and to stick to things when I start them {because oh my gog i don't want to KNOW how much of your time you have put into this, but that in itself is very admirable} and at this bout, I am just rambling, but my point remains, i want to stroke this thread tenderly and make love to it.![]()

So, I remembered something about Equius being the block arranger when the Tetris thing was brought up. So I made this when I was bored:
http://i1205.photobucket.com/albums/...etrickAxis.png
+--)This is rediculous. Why do I even hoove this?I'm so trying to get something decent to illustrate this event. Well, if Nepeta doesn't get an attack of oppurrtunity on Eridan and moirail him while is defenceless. (and crush my little)
> Eridan : use crabdad antics to distract KK and elope at least.
> Karkat : sloppy makeout, now ! Then realize Nep is in your room and get into threshecutioner mode and hate yourself for that
@Strider : Since flushing emotions are a shade of pity, then Eridan has to pity Nepeta somehow to get a full reciprocical bond, I guess. Unless with refuge in audacity she does really turn into the knight. Hey Eridan, you just have to hope !
http://tof.canardpc.com/view/dc800dd...e654d54a9a.jpgThread 3 fanartI fourth this. WITH PASSIONI third this.
Also, Troll Jade is a jadeblood that's part of the Cult Of The Clowns Of A Grim Persuasion That May Or May Not Be In Full Possession Of Their Mental Faculties which is generally a lowblood cult, Troll Rose is a member of a Sea Dweller assassin squad that work for the goldbloods and Troll John seems to be a blue blooded member of The Sufferer's religion. So, is Troll Dave going to be a redblooded member of IRIS or something? xD
Edit but not really: Ninja'd by Ckret saying that Troll Dave might also be a clown cultist?
Also,

....Yeah this isn't worth calling fanart. But it was an amusing hour.so in thread #2 this happened:
...then this happened (it was supposed to be more impressive but i accidentally was drawing it at 7k x 5k px so my computer started freezing. also, drawing hero mode in a program with no fill tool is difficult! I AM NEVER DOING THIS AGAIN):
karkatVantas [KV] began trolling eridanAmpora [EA]

http://i56.tinypic.com/2hqq77q.png
the cairo overcoat is REALLY HARD TO DO; eridan-being-hope being sgrub!but got tiger for some reason!but then al forgot the actual hood and just noticed it now oh great!eridan amuses me. IRONY.
i don't know if this counts as fanart? or what is up with karkat's hair, i have problems with his hair...
aaand now i have to draw my chemical matespritship. you are all terrible to my hands what with your inspirational weird jokes and stuff.We're livin on the EDGE!
why do I have random song lyrics all over my head
but srsly that made me lol, hategrope xD
I made a thing! after the last update this was like, all I could think about o3o
(Xposted heh)
Spoilered for huge
(I think, it's huge as hell on my tiny notebook xD)
(I need to draw more wimmins dangnabbit)aw thank you!
I couldn't sleep so here's some more!
I was just doodlin' here
but tryin to draw a few of the characters the way I see them...
yes I see Kar with dimples, what >3>
the ah Kayana one is like..xD what you do when you're lookin through a page of 30s, 40s & 50s movie stars bios for no real reason because it's 5 am and you can't sleep, and youre like omg you know what *points* she is TOTALLY Kayana
and then you attempt to draw it and make it hideous |D;;Except just getting it up to 3 votes is quite enough to draw her attention to a command. After that point it's essentially mindless bandwagoning and it's far worse than the discussions in my opinion because at least those have THOUGHTS behind them.
quick fanart sketch so I don't feel like I'm spamming the thread:
http://img718.imageshack.us/img718/3...itehighsis.png
"that's quite high sis!"
Re-post from the discussion thread
I should have given him a whale or a turtle, but this IS Cuvier we are talking about so <:3c
Oh, and >Karkat: Stop being on the losing end, already! Then again, nothing ever goes right for you![]()
![]()
I FREAKING LOVE CUVIER SO MUCH I DREW HIM.
I'm also encouraging everyone to go visit the memo.
because. er. this. they made me draw this.
WAITWAITWAITWAITWAITWAIT!!!!!!
Doesn't that last update means....
(More shity image edits, yay)As promised:
Cuvier giving the same speech to Eridan he does all the new recruits of IRIS.
Inspired by this Formspring post.>Strider: Get off your LAZY ASS and make that Irony pic you promised! >_<
Oh all right all right, here.
http://i223.photobucket.com/albums/d...aveBowtier.png
Yeah I l know it's shitty. Shut up. =_=X-posting from discussion thread to here:
OMG HEY LOOK ITS ERIDAN:
>.<;; I need to fix the colouring from the waist down.
also...
HEY GUYS ITS LIKE PARTYTOWN ALL UP IN THE DISCUSSION THREAD.
YOU SHOULD JOIN.
EDIT: should I spoiler this?
edit: spoilered.> casually slips non-related art into the thread
http://fc02.deviantart.net/fs71/f/20...rc-d3nofyt.gif
There shall be fuckton of canon art now that my tablet is alive. CUVIER IS ON HIS WWAY
Thirding/fourthing the sweet loot gain.So
I finished the Pirate Eridan lineart
Complete with Ahab's Crosshairs! lD
I'm already colouring it, but I just wanted to share it~ ouo
also what is anatomy
/pchooooo/Wow, these last batch of updates were awesome... actually this whole fanadventure is awesome
I actually made an account to post here, but then chickened out 'cuz I couldn't think of any decent commands... Then I found another thread to post in so I'm not exactly a wiggler anymore :0
Anyway, I didn't magically grow an ability to think of decent commands, but when I saw the update with Gamzee getting a wheel prostetic leg, I just couldn't stop laughing, for seriously, for a whole while... I really did not see that coming
So I made some fanart for it and I thought I'd delurk to share it:
art drump ~
badly scanned pencil sketches
firstly i got silly and drew a troll MEEEeee
i apparently am an asshole activist fighting the status quo and societal norms no matter what universe i'm in lol
i would so be culled in a heartbeat
SOMEONE GET ME A MEGAPHONE

*thrusts badly-scanned underground manifesto at unsuspecting passerby*
Tav and Gamz, best bros
http://i590.photobucket.com/albums/s...zHanginOut.png
I figure they're about 14/15 here (human years)
they are watching a movie aw
what movie are they watching, idk
Tav & Gamz
a little older, around 18 human years
this picture so drew itself too, this wasn't what I started out drawing but--apparently it wanted to be drawn whether i willed it or no
http://i590.photobucket.com/albums/s...indsGamzee.png
I had this little scene in my head playing too the whole time:
the addiction's starting to become evident, Gamzee's behavior is changing and he's barely coherent half the time Tavros sees him which isn't nearly as much as he used to; sometimes Gamzee disappears for days, although he's never been gone this long. two and a half weeks now and counting and Tavros is out of his mind with fear, but after some asking around he manages to find Gamzee one night far across town huddled in a doorway in an alley and in bad shape. he'd been obviously attacked, maybe mugged, though it's hard to tell if his money and belongings were stolen or sold -- he's out of it on sopor and Tav can't even tell if he recognizes him as he kneels down and tries to rouse him from his stupor. Gamz shivers and shakes, mumbling about being cold and too empty to get back to the stars and he does the only thing he can think of, gathers him up in his arms, off the cold concrete. gamzee's head lolls back on his shoulder. 'it hurts...bro it hurts' he mutters and begins to cry, shakily and softly against tavros' shoulder. tav swallows hard and says nothing. he only picks Gamzee up and tries to take him home from this dark place, once again.'

? subtext too because yay
jesus christ his horns are so long xDD
i was channeling rufio apparently
(xposted):V
I finished Pirate Eridan, hehehe o w o
It's huge :V
I like it..~ ouo
And is there any way this Au can be more awesome?
I mean hnng. Everything :V
> Gamzee: Continue bawling like a little bitch.
> Tavros: Be slightly disturbed by the bird guy
> Bird guy: Be slightly disturbing :VTHIS.
also... you are psychic.
also KINDA FANART I GUESS: I made these for myself:
http://i29.photobucket.com/albums/c2...DLBbuttons.jpg
they're buttons. and they're going on my jacket.
http://i.imgur.com/4hGht.jpg
Your name is Mikael Jaksen. When you were a young troll, your horns were broken off by another young troll after you lost in Troll Pop against them. Troll Pop is a brutal art, wherein you engage in a song-and-dance battle with another troll, and whoever loses is culled. Your opponent was lenient, but you were not. Sweeps later, after all the humiliation and ridicule from your troll peers, you had mastered Troll Pop and tracked down your old opponent, and unsurprisingly defeated him with no trouble at all. You culled him, then ripped off and chiseled his horns, fashioning it into a Crown of Horns, symbolizing your superiority over every other troll in Troll Pop. You have made this a ritual, to fashion a new crown after culling every uppity troll that thinks they can best you in Troll Pop. Now everybody knows that nobody can hope to beat you in a Troll Pop battle; you are simply the best there is. You are the King of Troll Pop.What are you talking about? This is nothing short of
Are you crazy?! You can't just let the forth wall fall apart all willy-nilly. Sure, it's nice to get these breaks to make fun of how stories flow, and to play around with a medium, but you can't just constantly be aware of it; you'll have no structure to stand upon. And just great, Deadpool just smashed apart an already weak foundation and now Rhosyn's gone, so there's no one to help get things back together. This is bad, there needs to be a strait man to point out all this silliness and put it to an end. I know troll!Shinpachi! Your up! You need to do this, play the strait man, be the straightest, narrow buzz kill you've been in your glasses wearing life! The stability of the story depend on it!
...or well, failing that
>Rhosyn: Alright, we spent a good deal listening to how tragic, awesome, and awesomely tragic your past as been. What are you going to do in the here and now?So, uh, I made a thing.
Not especially happy with how the hair and glasses turned out around his horn, but it's not bad considering I whipped it up in a couple of hours.
*returns to lurking*
i forgot this was a thing

By the way, guys - Discussion thread, remember?
If you're going to just drop off stuff like this riding on a command post then post it here, but totally commandless posts and/or seconding - even with the power of the Green Sun and all that jazz - should really be relegated to discussion thread, unless of course it's the whole 'Just caught up this is FANTASTIC' stuff, in which case probably belongs here.
It's not something that bothers me specifically, but it bothers a lot of people, so, yeah. Cool?
Okay. Back to your regularly scheduled commands
> Tavros: Enter Subjugglatorway; consult menu. Which one should you pick...?
> Vriska: Flashback to the last time something licked you. pounce de leon thought you tasted rather like blue cheese, really. You were ever so glad to hear that, Nepeta, now would she get her st8pid lusus 8ff you already?!?!?!?!Thread 3 fanart from Discussion ThreadLong list of commands! :33
> Rhosyn: Get hungry and go to Subjugglatorway.
> Feferi: Always keep half of a poptart saved. There is never an occasion where Eridan does not need half of a poptart to re-compose himself, and oh cod look at him. :< He needs a whole box or ten of poptarts.
> Nepeta: Desperately search for Feferi and Jadzia, leaving Eridan alone.
> Eridan: Contemplate real suicide while Nepeta's gone, but something extra-dramatic, like trying to hang yourself on a tree on a cliff after taking fifty sopor slime capsules and trying to shoot yourself with Ahab's Crosshairs at the same time. Have Ahab's Crosshairs miss and cut the rope, plunge into the sea, accidentally throw up all of the capsules, and wash up pathetically onto the shore.
> Vriska: Grab Almandine's tongue while getting licked and tear a good chunk of it off.
> Cuvier: Be the magical girl as your part-time job. How else are you gonna be able to fund IRIS, and what better way to do it than with the money straight from the pockets of merchandise greedy highbloods?
FANART ATTACK: Cuvier as the magical girl.

In fact, you are so furious that you are about to do something very, very stupid. There is no point tryng to resist it, you simply will not succeed. The stupidity is crashing toward you like a motherfucking meteor.
What are you about to do?
... As if there is any question.
