Barrier Blocks

It’s that time again! A bit of a shorter one this time, but rest assured, there’s better stuff coming. The next part may very well have to be split in two from how much is supposed to happen in it... x~x

Just working on some adjustments to Aston’s OW sprites to make them look better. You might see more of this as Going Nuts gets closer to completion at long last and I work more on making these look less...weird, I guess? Idk.

I was planning on doing something more...extravagant. Something flashier. But alas, life got in the way as usual. Still, as the creator of an AU about the YTers that play this game, I felt legally obligated to do something for such a special occasion, even if it is belated.

And now...two characters I’ve wanted to show off for a VERY long time.

Meet Berlina Sann (left) and Centuria Gothika (right). Two lovely ladies of a mysteriously undetailed origin, these marrow-based madames have a job in the Royal Knights! But what is that job, you may ask? Well, you’ll just have to wait and see, now won’t you?

Not much else to say about the two of them here, sadly. Maybe. Perhaps some further investigation could bring more understanding to light?

Now then, in case I already didn’t open up the floodgates enough with Andy and Amy, Berlina and Centuria are now open for asks! Feel free to send them any questions you want, and they’ll answer what they can. Probably.

Enjoy, and until next time! (Artwork by @skribblyspence!)

And now, for some long-needed content for a sub-AU that’s been turned on its head.

Crown the Flower and Dongus the Squirrel. Two SOULless folks, both with a heart of gold!...or chlorophyll and stuffing respectively, as the case may be. These two more or less watch over the Ruins in its previous caretaker’s...permanent absence, alongside a mysterious third member of their group. Who is that person, you ask? Well, nobody quite knows who else lies behind the Ruins door --- only that the Royal Scientist’s recently-hired assistant goes there sometimes for research.

So yeah, Second Layer’s designs for Crown and Dongus are now public! More Second Layer content coming soon to a dashboard near you. Maybe. And just more BB-related content in general.

Huge thank-you to @skribblyspence for drawing all these brilliant bastards, and stay tuned for a very special reveal tomorrow!

Today’s reveal is a bit more...incorporeal, I suppose.

Cory. A freelance photographer and often-revered...dead man. That’s right, Cory is dead. The only reason you’re seeing his design at all is because it’s the last set of clothing he was wearing before his untimely death, complete with his camera (which somehow survived the whole incident). A shame the camera went missing years ago. Perhaps, if joined with the right wielder, it could give this spectral shutterbug a way to manifest again?

Nobody, as far as the general public goes, is quite sure how he died. It’s a secret...to almost everyone.

Hope you like finally getting to see our favorite photographer’s design! It’s a lot easier than waiting like an entire run or whatever to show it off, haha.

Enjoy, and until next time!

So yeah, I missed yesterday. Sorry about that, was busy with a flight to Orlando to visit Disney and Universal. Anywho, to make up for it, I’ll give you both of the reveals today! Two chars I’ve wanted to show off for a while, really.

Amy is one of the top entertainers in the Underground, beaten out only by Adam...and she’s an artist, at that! She spends a good deal of her prime time teaching people different tricks to artwork, how different colors go together, showing off her own stellar work...the whole shebang. Sure, she might be an android that’s gone through like 6 different design phases, but she loves what she does!...and the scientist responsible for her continued existence.

Her artist’s tool of choice? A paintbrush that’s twice as big as her.

Andy, resident cap connoisseur of the Underground, is the Royal Scientist under Jess’ rule and the owner of the world’s coolest hat. Together with Amy, the two of them do a bunch of science-y stuff and artsy stuff. He even helps with Amy’s performances --- Andy typically does a lot of the editing work and stage control shenanigans! Having been given the job after an incident with the previous Royal Scientist, he takes it pretty seriously. And does literally nothing serious with his position.

Also, his hat may or may not be able to talk. Maybe.

So yeah, that’s Andy and Amy revealed to the public! I’m also gonna point out: Andy and Amy are now open for questioning! Obviously, I won’t reveal spoiler stuff, but I’ve left these two out of the picture for long enough, I think. Feel free to send in questions, and they’ll be answered when possible.

Hope you enjoy these two, and until next time!

Today’s reveal: a really neat couple.

One of them wants everything to be good again. One just wants to get it over with and figure the rest out afterwards. But despite their disagreements, they DO love each other. Say hi to Pat and Jen, flaunting their spot among the Snowfall Guard! Being two of the select few hand-picked by Thomas and Shelby, Pat and Jen are mostly sentries with the extra job of neutralizing any human threat that enters the Underground, should such a threat present themselves. This is the task given to all the members of the Guard, with the intention of being able to just protect the area from danger...

...take that with a grain of salt, though. The definition of “threat”, unfortunately for Aston, is rather loosely defined within the Guard’s ranks.

They replace the Dogi, and they’re finally getting a reveal! In fact, they’re gonna show up soon (read: whenever I get around to finishing the next Snowfall part...sometime this milennium, I swear).

Anywho, the next few reveals are some chars I’ve wanted to show off for a good long while. Be prepared for tomorrow in particular...that said, until next time!

Suddenly...the first of a bunch of character reveals we’re gonna be doing this week! From now until...whenever we run out of chars we’re comfortable with revealing,  you’ll find a new design revealed on this picture each day, starting with...

Dan, the man with a plan, is the runner of the Underground’s fastest transport service, the Diamond Minecart. While the track to the Ruins was never quite put in place, Dan will gladly take you just about anywhere in the Underground!...provided you’ve already gotten there on foot at least once. Either way, it’s a great way to travel if you gotta be somewhere quick! He’ll probably even tell you stories or crack a few jokes on the way, if you need some entertainment!

...yeah. Dan replaces the Riverperson, and it’s exactly the joke you think it is. Enjoy. Sorry about technically being late, I think.

Yes, this is canon. Yes, it’s by @skribblyspence. No, I’m not telling you what it is.

Stay tuned for more dumb shit probably. And also the rest of BB part 1, coming soon to a dashboard near you.
