so you know how nick, monica, dandy, and ray are like a group
and they each run a spot
this is the text/info dump for those spots
enjoy (under the cut)
Nick’s Knacks
A place to buy armor and consumables.
Shop dialogue
Hey there pally. Fixin’ for a fix? [Upon entrance]
Heha, anything else? [Upon exiting a menu]
Buy
Somethin’ catch the eye? [While purchasing]
Thanks for that, heha! [On purchase]
Bad luck, chief. [Not enough D$]
It’ll be in storage, capiche? [Full inventory]
You got no room, tough guy. [Full inventory and storage]
What, don’t wanna support the lil guy? [Refuse buy]
Sell
Only partial refunds, heha! [While selling]
Any ITEMS you lookin’ to part? [Items/Pocket Items]
Any WEAPONS you lookin’ to part? [Weapons]
Any ARMOR you lookin’ to part? [Armors]
You ain’t got nothin’. [Empty in Items/Weapons/Armors]
Sure thing, honcho. [On sell]
Try’na swindle me? [Empty slot]
I don’t want that, bud. [Unsellable]
That’s all you got. [All Items/Weapons/Armors]
Heha, am I not payin’ enough? [Refuse sell]
Exit
You have a good one, now! [Exit]
Come back again sometime. [Exit, epilogue]
[Twins]
The twins, what can I say about em… Rather, what CAN’T I say about em. I’ll tell you; they’re kind, charitable, and always have the people’s interests at heart. They definitely DIDN’T force me to stop selling weaponry and infect an entire town for the sake of their ‘Grand Project.’ …That was sarcasm, if that wasn’t clear. I was forced to hand in any weapons I had, but I decided to hide em before they got the chance to check. Hey slugger, if you see em around, don’t let them ask for the supplier, heha!
[Shop]
Heha, this ol’ bundle of cardboard. Nick’s Knacks is the name. I’m Nick, these are my Knacks. Pretty cut and dry. I got plenty of doo-dads lying around. Except for weapons. The Twins made sure of that. I’m always putting new things on sale though, so make sure to stop by every once and a while, slick!
[Wind]
You know, rumor had it that there’s a wind spirit ‘round these parts. Nothin’ too terrible, lil’ thing just enjoyed the occasional prank, that’s all. You’ll notice I said “had” there since, as of recent, the poor thing is locked in a cage by the twins. Said somethin’ about wanting to get people out of the area. …Hey, ain’t you one of the shmucks that work for ‘em? You mind explainin’ that, chum?
[Wind] (After Habub fight)
Looks like someone’s finally seein’ straight. Those twins ain’t nothin’ but trouble, I tells ya. …Hey. Don’t beat y’self up too hard, ace. Y’know what they say. First step to change is freein’ the wind spirit your bosses locked up as a push factor. …or somethin’ like that. I ain’t no wise fella.
[Dandy]
Ah, Dandy. Runs a bar nearby. Don’t tell no one, but they really like seeing the place packed. If you stumble upon some friends ‘round here, stop and sit at the ol’ place. …Me? Nah, I’m too busy, gotta man the stations. Runnin’ between 3 separate stores ain’t easiest on the legs, heha!
[Before]
Champ, when I tell you things were peachy before the twins, I’ma need you to fully grasp it with me. Imagine those canned peaches, take the syrup out and use it to water a peach tree, then use THOSE peaches to make into a peach cobbler. THAT’S how peachy we were. … Darn it, now I’m hungry. Anyway, things were real smooth sailing, is my point.
[Yourself]
Little ‘ol me? Kiddo, I ain’t nothin special. Just an old retired biker sellin’ his odds and ends. …Y’wanna know how I lost the eye, huh? Well, ain’t that a story… You know, they say someone with a scar has at least one story to tell. …Which is why I ain’t tellin’ ya. C’mon, don’t tell me you wanna actually know. You just wanna stew in ya mind on what COULD be true. You have fun with that, heha!
[Marauder]
You’re sayin’ there’s some shadowy figure followin’ you around? Well that ain’t a shock, you’re in the domain of the Mouseless Marauder, squirt. She used to work for the twins but, one way or another, she don’t now. Had to guess, she ain’t a fan of seein’ the lead soldier and the lightner they yukked up in her town. Good luck to ya, heha!
[Marauder] (After Styla fight)
Poor gal. No matter what, she’s always wantin’ to do the right thing. She cares for her fellow folks, but you don’t need me to tell you that. The Twins gave out quite the smear campaign against her when she lost the job. Though, frankly, their image is starting to slip. People are putting two and two together. I don’t think the two care at this point anymore. Somethin’ tells me they’re plannin’ somethin’ big, and I don’t wanna be around when it happens. Shame you’ll have to be, buddy! Heha!
[Monica]
Monica? That ol’ jitterbug? She runs a music hall nearby, I tell ya, she can play any music there is, you know it, she can play it. Go stop by if there’s an earworm you’ve heard on your travels. To listen to it again or to drown it out, she isn’t picky. Maybe tell her to play my shop’s music, heha!
Tycon Tower
Wares

Talk
[Argebium]
Argh, don’t get me started on that stuff. The twins treat it like some sorta nectar of the gods, like it’ll bring ‘em to paradise in a diamond limo or sumthin’. They say it’s about profits and efficiency, but if you ask me? Those old nuts were cracked by the stuff. I think they want it just to have it. I mean, who are they even gonna sell it to? Each other? That’s a bubble waitin’ to burst, heha!
[Friends]
Heha, the friend group, what a bunch of scamps we are. Me, Dandy, Monica, and Ray, we’re practically the only fun left in this damn place if you ask me. Been buds so long, but I still remember when we first met. Believe it or not, we met in the Inhale Jail, those twins were always making up reasons to send folk there. Of course, we tried to break out all the time, and of course, we failed, heha! Eventually we got out by Styla raiding the place, and they never cared enough to collect us back. Heard word their plans are almost ready, and collecting some stragglers will just delay it. But back to the ol’ miscellany, though, it’s a good time, hanging with them. Good folks.
[Train]
Blinkerton of all folks gave ya trouble, huh sport? I mean I get ya raided the train, but I didn’t expect the ol’ ditz to actually do anythin’ but suck up to the bosses. Things weren't always like that, for the record. Blink was a chill guy, didn’t want no harm to nobody. After the twins made their influence known though, it’s like he’s been under a spell of sorts. Poor sucker.
[Ray]
Ray, huh? The lil rascal takes pride in their illusions, I'll tell ya that. They love showing ‘em off, especially their lifelike side. Recently they’ve perfected it so they can actually fight, so if you’re looking for a challenge, talk to ‘em. Though, they aren’t much of a fighter themselves, so you’ll just be fightin’ air, haha.
[Ray] (Before the climax)
Ray… They’ve been feeling off recently, and I mean REAL recently. One moment, they’re bright and cheery, the next… they feel dark and foreboding. Like a light switch was flipped. …Do you mind checking up on them? Trust me, I’d do it myself, but y'know, business. Don’t wanna risk stepping into enemy territory.
[Ray] (Epilogue)
RAY, YOU CRAZY CREATIVE, YOU! Heha, you’re tellin’ me you had Tuse make a dark world DURING the whole spider situation? Ya’ll are lucky no one was hurt during your little detour! When ya’ll were gone, X just seemed to… wander aimlessly. BUT WHO CARES about him, really? Ray, what got you into this? …What’s that? Won’t say? Heha, alright, you visionaries and your secrets. I won’t press.
Dandy’s Saloon
A hangout for all your recruits. Also sells an exclusive item.
🍽 - Nebleizer - $150 (You can only hold one in your inventory normally, but with more recruits you can carry another. one extra for every 3 recruits, with the max being 5)
Bar (Solo)
“Yeah, this is my 5th coffee today. … What do you MEAN it’s only 5 am??” [Snorcerer]
(It’s dreaming of a cocktail you don’t know the name of and don’t care enough to.) [Shleepy]
“If I order a drink with two straws, someone else is sure to come along, right?” [Lost Sole]
(It’s drinking a carbonated cup of air. It likes it very much.) [Habub]
“Oh me, oh my, what to choose…” (Dandy seems impatient.) [Bookwyrm]
“I would just rob this place, but the boss says small businesses are our friends.” [Scribinal]
“What? Me? Taking from the tip jar? Nonsense!” (…You didn’t ask that.) [Coppraiser]
“Hey there, young’ns. Looking for a drink? Dandy makes ‘em non-alcoholic.” [Styla]
“The color is the best part of a drink.” (Its order makes your eyes hurt.) [Twody]
“Just a water, please. I don’t need much.” [Tolem]
“It’s my turn on the straw!” “Quit hogging!” [Cordra]
“I wonder if they make lemon drop and taffy ice cream floats…” [Blinkerton]
Table (Pair)
[Snorcerer + Shleepy]
(They’re both sleeping on the menus…)
[Lost Sole + Lost Sole]
(1) “So uh… Enjoy sports?”
(2) “Uh, no, I‘m more of a book person.”

[Bookwyrm + Bookwyrm]
(1) [Jokes/Stories/Facts]?
(2) [Same]!
(1) [Same]!!
[Coppraiser + Tolem]
(Coppraiser) “And then, if you get lost again, you get some of the money back to help!”
(Tolem) (It’s trying to tune them out. It is failing.)
[Styla + Scribinal]
(Scribinal) Wow, a drink with the boss! So… is there a Mrs. Styla~?”
(Styla) “Don’t bother, Laura.”
(Scribinal) “Worth a shot.”
[Twody + Scribinal]
(Scribinal) “GAH! It’s you! You uh… aren’t gonna tell our bosses, right?”
(Twody) “Honey, we gotta come clean eventually.”
(Scribinal) “I know that, I just don’t wanna get in trouble…”
[Cordra + Cordra]
(1) “Oh great, SIX heads to feed.”
(2) “WE were here first!”
[Blinkerton + Twody]
(Twody) “You’re telling me you’ve NEVER thrown a pie in someone’s face??”
(Blinkerton) “Cannot say that I have, no.”
(Twody) “Lemme order one, I’m gonna blow your MIND.”
[Habub + Styla]
(Habub) “Whshaaa…”
(Styla) “You don’t say. And then what?”
(Habub) “Swoooosh…”
[Styla + Blinkerton]
(Styla) “Bootlickers like you piss me off. And then ya dare to show yer face here?”
(Blinkerton) “Uh… did it hurt, when you- um- fell from-”
(Styla) “PARDON??”
[Blinkerton + Habub]
(Blinkerton) “So uh… no hard feelings on the capture thing…?”
(Habub) (It blows the menu into his face.)
(Blinkerton) “Yea, that’s fair.”

Soon after you find yourself passing through the Chroma Woodlands, where a dark figure seems to be watching you. You venture forward and find yourself in Loom Town, where after some encounters with Scribinals, suddenly a big robot lands in front of you, and a little man pops out, explaining how he was sent by the twins to take you down. The robot is then promptly shot and explodes, sending the man flying. The shady figure from earlier reveals herself to be Styla, the Mouseless Marauder. She runs this town and she doesn't take kindly to it being invaded by X.S. folk. Her Scribinals grab Mobi, leaving you to fend in a 1v1.

Quotes
Can’t stand your types. Actin’ like you can push us around. [Turn 1]
Because we’re smaller. Because we’re weaker. Ya make me sick. [Turn 2]
None of y'all have learned what it means. To be small. [Turn 3]
I was a bigwig too, y'know. Used to be one of the top folk in the Tower. [Turn 4]
But then I learned too much. And I knew better. [Turn 5]
Whether they fired me or I quit, it don’t matter none. [Turn 6]
Because if yall don’t quit, I’ll be doin the firin’ round here. [Turn 7]
I got a community now. One I ain’t gonna part with. Or throw aside. [Turn 8]
Not for all the money in the world, y’hear me!? I am what they need! [Turn 9]
And you? Y'all are just two folk caught up in the wrong crowd. [Turn 10]
I pity ya. But I ain’t gonna pull my punches for it. [Turn 11]

Flavor Text
Styla and her gang have captured Mobi! [Encounter]
Smells like broken plastic. [Neutral]
The Scribinals cackle amongst themselves. [Neutral]
The Scribinals are having a good game of blackjack. None know how to play. [Neutral]
Folks are watching from the windows. [Neutral]
Mobi struggles against the restraints. [Neutral]
Styla sneers and aims her pistol at you. [Neutral]
Styla’s poncho blows in the wind. [Neutral]
Styla quickdraws a rude gesture. [Neutral]
The crux of this fight is the acts of Quickdraw, Slowdraw, and Heal. Quickdraw triggers a Hogun's Alley style minigame where you have to hit the two Scribinals (+5% each) and not hit Mobi or run out of time (-5%). Slowdraw is just an easier version of this, and Heal has Mobi toss you a heal, but both cost 30%, so there's some risk there.
Dude this is AWESOME!!!! I haven't gotten too far into the lore yet, but I'm really happy to see other people also making their own dark worlds! The Wild West is cool, robots are cool, so you basically made the coolest post ever
i have an artfight if you are participating! the main and secret bosses have their own character sheets, but if youre wanting to draw other characters from this au, you can use the "stragglers" character page for em!
if not artfight, just post it and tag this blog! I'll be sure to RB it!
Blinkerton was simple, remove his legs because hes a vr headset and vr games typically lack legs
Styla was harder, i wanted to emphasize her being a drawing tablet, so i made her head a teardrop shape with a white tip, like a pencil esque shape. i also made her gun replace her hand because its cooler (she shoots the poncho at mobi rather than throwing it)
yall ever be so autistic you mix your own au with another au
i know nothing about yugioh besides the fact i watched zexal growing up as a youngin, and i still think about susieoh more than most
so thats what im going with, im yuma, ray is astral, idk what the numbers mean or what the deal with the twins are here, shrug
(Su-Sie-Oh au belongs to @unamusedyams!)
(dont think about how the chasing rainbows lore states the entire thing is unprophecised yet the cards are based on the prophecy SHHH SHUT UP DONT THINK ABOUT IT)
with the release of it happening, theres a few things that need to be addressed regarding chasing rainbows
1, THE ORANGE FUCKING SOUL is a thing now, meaning that rays days as a unique soul user are now numbered
2, the shadow crystals are shards of lost dreams, so i gotta now figure out that deal with ray (could also hand wave it like i did with the fountains creation)
3, the flowers all look incredibly human, so i think ill have to redesign styla and blinkerton a tad to make them less human like, due to them just being normal darkners, so if you have any ideas let me know please

Illusionary: Kind of Ray's overworld theme, but ray only appears in their arena outside of the side quest, so its the arena theme as well. plays at a lower fucked up speed when Ray is a Knower. Think Gya Ha Ha!
Cosmic Chiaroscuro: The area theme for the Eye of the Galaxy. This section has puzzles to progress, but theyre eerie, closer in vibe to the parental control puzzles. also throwing around the idea of adding enemies to this area? but i dunno. Think Second Sanctuary + Field of Hopes and Dreams
ive been working on au designs for chasing rainbows, and was planning to finish every section before posting, but im stuck and have no ideas
behold, the Aesthetic and Other sections of the AU designs
Red needs adding, yellow needs changing, and green is fine as is
Extra notes per section:
Paraphrase jevil already has a color motif, so the twins will need a new one
the Defernull twins are already evil, so im unsure on if they get even more evil or actually get nice. or, if their worst traits are amplified, what the hell thatd mean for them
Deltanova CR takes place on a moon that the twins are exploiting for argebium, which in this au is in gas form, because the entire thing is steampunk
Candleholder may not be entirely accurate but i did the best i could with the scraps i could find remaining of the au
Eldritchrune is based and fine as is
Undertale is inspired by both the spamtenna UT au and the seavil deltarune au. this one isnt a ship one though-

Chapter Rewritten, swaps my deltaroom with a friends deltarune (it was canned but they allowed me to have this anyways). Her secret boss was a Friend Inside Me thing, and so mine is a We Belong Foever thing
Deltaswap (The One With Majesty In It), swaps secret and main bosses. kept up the semi theme of media references with Eclipse referencing Space Odyssey, and Neoon (pronounced nee-oon) references underevent rather than the 10 year stream
The Other Puppet, swaps light and dark worlds, with secret bosses and party members swapping. We don't know the specifics of how the worlds are but i took the creative liberty of saying a Light Fountain is opened by holding something to the sky (neksus' dialogue got me thinking about it)
Chapter Rewritten by @chapter-rewritten06
Deltaswap (TOWMIT) by @romstred and @cianeatsgrass
ive been chiseling away at designs and shit (most of them are ray dont get your hopes up)
but the thing is im split on if i wanna just bite the bullet and post what i have and finish the post later just to show it off, or wait until what i have is fully finished
examples of whats missing include like, lack of doodles, some folks lack designs, im missing an au
