> They descended from magical seals, hence lack of arms, they used to be fins!

> Generally have telekinesis, which compensates for lack of arms (and also explains very big heads because I am So Original XD), but for some people it doesn't properly develop until much later, hence Vee had to fight with his sword

> Almost everyone wears some sort of magical gem on their head to balance telekinetic powers out, those who have no money for a gem.. well, they have to deal with uncomfortable stuff. Such as their powers randomly acting (for example breaking glass things around). Also other people tend to have Slight Fear around them for this lack of control.

> Such gems manufacturing is monopolized within one of 3 kingdoms on that planet and not even the monarch family is very successful in changing this shit. As for other two kingdoms, well, they'd try, but teritorially they have no much gems to find. So everyone buys them from the same place

> Sex dymorphism is rather visible, males have colored hair and tiny eyes, females have hair same color as body and big eyes with pretty lashes.

> This society is still not very open to trans concept, so Vee and one of his fathers are closeted.
(Gaelin, one of Vee's fathers however, is rather comfortable with looking feminine. Vee has mixed feelings about representation, but would dye his hair silver when it's more acceptable)

> In fact, Vee will be the one to contribute very much in his society accepting trans people, but that's for another story!

> Almost entire home planet is water, only 3 bits of land - 2 very large islands and one archipelago. Each bit is it's own kingdom, and each sticks in Almost Everything (like buildings and clothes) to their colors scheme. Vee's kingdom (people with skin colors from warm lavender to pink) are cool pastel colors+gold (dark warm colors+silver in the mirror world), another island (people with dark purple skin colors) has 'everything but green' bright color scheme (different shades of green in mirror world) and archipelago ones (people with skin colors from cool lavender to light blue) use warm colors palette like orange, red, yellow (cool colors in mirror world)

> Surprisingly, even though the planet is so much water, the animal life in the ocean is more poor than what Earth has, or maybe even what Popstar got. However seaweed and corals life is extremely various. It worth nothing that some sea 'plants' are predatory and eat other seaweed or even little animals.

Hi everyone!
While I am working on my next big mirror!versions piece (and avoid replying to the comments because I never learned how to focus fjsdfsd), I decided to talk about some stuff here, because I like talking and because I am also in a serious mood for once. Maybe I've watched too much Youtube recently ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Anyways, I wanted to put my two cents about some creative problems. Recently one of my friends told me about how back in their days they saw 'not being related to a canon character or being in romantic relationship with a canon character' as a requirement for a 'good OC' in one of the groups. I just wanted to say my opinion here. I personally think that relating your character to the canon like this, in fact, makes your character /better/! I mean, wasn't there the point of making your character for this fandom instead of just making them fandomless original? Fanmade characters that play a role in the canon, interact with canon characters, help shaping their backstory etc are actually really great and in my eyes they will always make more sense than just characters who are completely in their world with their own relations and don't interact with the canon universe. Here, I just really needed to say this.

However, I am not trying to say that latter case doesn't have a right to exist. All in all, characters people make because of the x franchize's setting were the results of people's inspiration as well. You know what else is results of people's inspiration? Well... actually, a LOT of things.
I don't know what the definition of the word 'plagiarism' in USA is, but over here it's basically just 'claiming someone else's work as your own or publishing someone else's work under your name' and.. tbh, I think it basically needs to stop around here. Not exactly AT here, but AROUND here. Over my time in the internet, I've seen a lot of people getting mad at someone for 'stealing their ideas', and honestly some of these accusations were really lacking substance. What I am trying to say is, the line between inspiration and plagiarism is pretty blurry and honestly, someone being inspired by how you draw something, or someone being inspired by your portrayal of a certain character doesn't deserve getting mad at them. ESPECIALLY if your original work you decided has been 'copied off' was a fan creativity to /begin/ with. Because in this case, you were inspired by someone else as well, so what really is the point of throwing accusations? Let's say, you portrayed a character with little to no canonical portrayal in a certain way and someone sorta uses your way as a reference now. Stuff like that. I mean, must it actually be taken as something bad, especially if your portrayal works very well all things concidered? In fact, people in the fandom NOT getting mad at each other for 'plagiarism' and instead working together is how best things and commonly accepted headcanons happen!
Also, if literal kids *cough* steal your ideas - don't send your friends after them or attack them yourself, especially if you are an adult. Like, I can't believe that it needs to be said, but, just don't.

But some artists will do this stuff, apparently. In fact, artists can do a lot of stuff wrong. For example, they can slip transphobia/racism/sexism/etc in their art or writing (normally by accident). The thing here is, laughing at them behind their back will NOT make the world a less transphobic/racist/sexist/etc place at all. I mean if you are okay with the world staying the same as it was - sure, just say it's not your job to educate someone and roll with it. But if you're not - it's probably to the better if you confront the artist about what they did wrong.
However, this also reminded me about that one time when an artist refused to reconcider blantant transphobia in their works, but they were still getting a huge amount of support 'because their art is so goooood :U'. Here is a take: the creator and their creation........ are different things! Like. You can hate the artist but respect their work. There are like, 0 reasons to overlook or sugarcoat problems about a creator just because their art looks good, or because their game is fun, or because their movie is great! If you consciously decide to not hold it against the creator - fine, but I think your reason for making a decision like this should NOT be based on the quality of their work. Because good art is not a good artist.
(Alternatively, not liking the creator doesn't mean you now have to pick out /nonexistent/ flaws about their work, or judge them for x thing in their work whereas you would not judge a good/neutral person for the literally same thing. It's just another side of how bad people can make good stuff.)

Speaking of bad people! Like I said, they can do good art, but there is more. Bad people are not how media portrays them, they are not Sat AM villains with no good qualities who are out to destroy everything. Bad people can love their family, be good students, feed homeless animals, comfort their crying friends, be nice to strangers, defend children from danger and donate money for good stuff (and yes I just said it like on my Twitter but who follows anyways..). When you have the evidence that someone is a bad person, your reaction could be a wish to disregard that just because this person was nice to you or you've seen them being nice to others or other stuff. The thing is... basically, don't.

Charity acts, good personality traits or even showing basic empathy is NOT what defines a 'person that can't be bad'. Bad people are just like neutral/good people. With the exception of being bad. They can do almost everything good people can.
What they CAN'T do though, is to own up for what they did, to change, to make amends and to bear the consequences of their actions. Like, /this/ is what you gotta be looking for. Whether they are showing the understanding and remorse (note that I say 'remorse', not 'crying and pitying oneself') for what they did, whether they did what situation required them to (which varies from making an apology to going to jail, a really wide field..), stuff like this.
However, not even this means they're suddenly good. Some people screwed up so bad they will at /best/ become morally grey after working hard, some people are just irredeemable (like child molesters), some people have their fundamental issues going down so deep they simply can't escape the state of being potentially dangerous for others (therefore they rather enter a long remission/learn self-control than change totally). Sure, you can choose to forgive them because they were nice to you, but think of this thing someone once said: 'people are generally very forgiving towards stuff that doesn't effect them directly'. It probably sounds unsettling because well, it should. But overall, don't feel any obligations because of your personal experience, you are allowed to get mad at someone else's behalf. It's good and sympathetic.

Speaking of getting mad! This is not an inherently bad thing. I think there is basically nothing wrong with people feeling anger, resentment, grudge, sadness, hatred, fear etc. These are just normal human emotions. Emotions on their own don't have moral alignment. And they should be especially respected if they are for a worthy case.
Like, I remember someone accusing another anti-MAP blog's mods for 'having too much anger for their age'. I am basically not kidding. It's literally the easiest thing to just let people be angry at those who could potentially hurt or already did hurt others (or themselves), but apparently at some extent society still holds bias against certain feelings? Maybe it came from tales about 'mean and close-minded unforgiving Tumblr people' (which are not substanceless, but are somewhat exagerrated in my opinion), maybe it's always been here. Probably the latter, because even before the internet, people tended to threat forgiving and/or peaceful attitude as 'morally superior' one. Which is I think fundamentally wrong. There are situations where you /gotta/ be forgiving, such as raising a child for example, but talking about most relationships in the society - this attitude is not morally superior, it just exists, as well as alternatives to it.

Alright, this journal has gotten long enough and.. I really need to drop the habit of changing the tone rapidly, eh; I just needed to talk about some stuff that's been on my mind recently, and to rather do it into the emptines 'for whoever wants to read this' than loading someone concrete with all my thoughts. Sorry for a journal that's gotten onto some existencial matters, but well, it still has that part about art and stuff, so technically it /can/ be on art-related site?.

IN THIS ESSAY I- Okay, but seriously, I just decided to put my ideas about how some of the Kirby characters lived after their plot lines ended, whether they redeemed or not.

Magolor - I trust that he apologized to Kirby and sided with him just based off the fact that Kirby was, and is, stronger than him. Maybe there was an impulse to get better at first, but it quickly faded. Magolor is cunning and would backstab Kirby again if there was 100% guarantee of winning (there isn't, though.). His wish to assert his dominance over the universe is still here so him being powerless here causes a slowly burning frustration, which he wastes in really passive ways, such as being hurtful/manipulative over naive people who can't see through his bullshit. However he keeps the track of people who still don't trust him (such as Dedede or Meta) and tries to prove that he is 'good' to them in various ways.

Anime verse Dedede - In my case, anime is a prequel to game events, so Dedede is meant to come from tyrannical jerk to a rather swell guy... But this wasn't very easy for him. After Escargoon left him, he started to slowly downspiral. It was around this time when he found chest with Nebula in his castle and released him. With Nebula's 'help', Dedede came closer to realizing /what/ he was doing this whole time, which caused him to get even worse and have very intense self-hatred attacks. It was to the point when he would think everyone is better off without him (not that he is wrong...) and this was when his behaviour started to worry Bandana Dee and, as following, Meta Knight.
The whole 'I am useless and can only hurt everyone' mindset period carried on for some longer. If you look at the way he is possessed by Dark Matter, you'll notice that his body is 'hanging' and being manipulated around like marionette. That's because when a Dark Matter interacts with him, it amplifies his negative emotions, and since Dedede still feels that powerless self-hatred - Dark Matter takes after that. At some point, Meta warns Dedede that his self-pity is doing no favours to anybody, and Dedede, surprisingly, understands. He since then takes willing effort to actually grow and change to be a better ruler, rather than proceed hating himself. Eventually he even learns to coexist with some of his flaws (like jealousy or impulsivity) without worrying that it would mean he's 'still bad'.

Susie - Like the SA description box says, she wants to bring her father's company back, and this is really saying. Still a bitch that has 'haha lower lifeforms amirite' attitude. She is working towards it, which means still colonizing planets. But, she can't find herself without the company, she literally has nowhere else to go but towards rebuilding the company. On the other hand, her actions having resulted to her dad's death left a scar that will never heal on her. Because of this, she still remotely 'has a heart', but her true vulnerabilities are wrapped in her denial and ego. She may sometimes wake up from nightmares connected with what she is doing - with planets or with people - in her life, but nothing is really enough to make her change as a person. Her only soft spot is Kirby though, it is a law for her to not cause havoc around places they love.

Marx - He got things completely backwards during attempt to understand what he did wrong and why. He believes that by attempting to take over the Popstar he made Kirby stronger and less naive, by constant pranks on people he makes their lives more interesting, and by still remaining potentially dangerous (he has crazy moments) for people instead of getting like, a therapy, he helps people to bond together over hating him. He never apologizes to anyone involved (except for Nova, because he genuinely feels sorry about using Nova as a tool and making him grant the wrong wish). You can call Marx's ideology reversed, I am thinking about one popular character from Touhou. To put it simple, Marx believes that his way to help this world is by being a 'bad guy', so the 'bad guy' he willingly still is, at least in his opinion.

Hyness - oh well... Although it seemed like he was redeemed in the game, I think he still got things to wrap his mind around. Under the heart's influence, Hyness gets cleared from his negative sentiments he had for years, of course, and is willing to start everything anew with the generals and his new friends. However, he is rather light-hearted about everything, to the point of not even willing to take responcibility for his actions "because it's not him anymore". Think of him like reverse of Dedede's primary self-pity situation. Should he encounter people who were directly affected by his wrongdoings, he would respond that he doesn't know what they are talking about, or something. However, as the time goes by, his confidence is slowwwwwly wearing off, and the guilt and sorrow he'd neglected start to grow on him...

That's all for now, I will try to write about more characters later!

Oh jeez, it's 2019 already! Time sure flies, for me the summer feels like it was just a few weeks ago!

I would say for me year 2018 was full of experience! Enough bad things happened to me during this year, but even more good things happened - either way, something to learn from. But what I am thankful the most for is how many new friends I was able to find in 2018! Some of these people were completely strangers at first, in other cases, I was able to discover something new about people I knew before. But I am no longer as lonely as I used to be, for which thank you all, friends and followers who never stop to encourage me! <3

In the new year I wish you all to be happy with your self-expression, whatever it may be! Are you an artist, a ficwriter? Or you express yourself in something different - heck, be it even being good at video games. But I wish that in the new year, you all understand how important and worthy you are, whatever you are doing in your life! I wish you all more happiness, and more Kirby stuff. Hope you celebrated well and remember this in the following year: anything painful is temporary, and something good will always come on it's place!

I actually told about these somewhere else, so below text already might been seem by you, but I just really wanted to share the thing here as well! I was just thinking how would general act post game events, like, how would they 'recover'
