Nyazh’s JSAB Stuff

Never talk with your mouth full :]

Now that the first challenge has started, Torrent is multitasking (as well as keeping some cake for the contestants)

“Welcome back, to the Scuffle of the Shapes. I’m Pulse!”

“And I’m Step! And it’s now time for the results!”

“That’s correct Pulse! Now without further a-do, let’s head right into it!”

Mya Velvet is watching the results live, knowing that the first 6 teams would be revealed soon. She was excited, hoping that she’d get in, and her two clones also sit beside her, just as excited. She decided to let them watch alongside her.

As the results started, Mya’s tail wagged with excitement and her horns wiggled as well, like a dog coming to see someone they love after having been separated from them for a while. She watched Step and Pulse introduce the teams, showing their team logo, and the names and appearances of their members.

Team 1: Seabirds

“It seems like Heli Danianimal and Boat Bacter seem like good friends, and they seem to be excited about joining! I can’t wait to meet them!”

“I really like the team name and logo! Seabirds are awesome! I bet they aren’t as excited as us though!”

“Mya, you should know that emotions are subjective, right? They might express their feelings in a different way, so you can’t say for certain that we’re more excited than them.”

Team 2: Gems

“Wow, Cube Alexandrite and Yellow Diamond look so pretty and elegant, like the sparkling crystals that we have all through our cave!”

Her rational clone eyes her emotional clone, saying, “Mya, don’t even think about trying to take their crystals without their permission. I know how much you love collecting them, but you must ask them for permission first.”

“Well, I can’t wait to meet them, and I’ll make sure to ask them for some crystals after this competition is over if we get in.”

Team 3: Team Coalhouse

“Charlotte, Leland, and S.Q.U.A.M. look like they’ve been through a lot of things, considering they look serious and prepared.”

“Yeah, I’m so excited to see what they have in store! They seem like tough competition!”

“Well, they’re so serious to the point where they’re a bit intimidating, but I think they are nice shapes under that tough exterior.”

Team 4: Spider Warning

“Aww, that spider looks so adorable with all the floof on it! Siren looks excited too!”

“Yeah, I bet those two are really happy they got in. I hope we get in too, as I’d love to meet them!”

“It seems like those two auditioned for this competition for fun, just like we are. I hope they enjoy this competition.”

Team 5: Lucky Shapes Syndrome

“Squ, Abilia, Frash, and Anis seem like quite the dynamic quartet, considering that some members seem more excited for this competition than others.”

“Regardless, I hope they all have a good time, and as long as they have fun, I bet even the most reluctant of them won’t regret participating.”

“I have to admit, they look kind of weird for shapes.” The other two Myas disapprovingly look at her for that rude comment.

Team 6: Corrupt Overtake

Mya’s horns flatten out, as her tail flicks up straight in alarm as she says, “Fresh looks cool, but the Fallen King looks extremely terrifying! I’m honestly a little scared!”

Her rational clone tries to reassure her, saying, “Don’t let your panic get to you, as you’ve overcome many difficult challenges before. It’s still good to be wary of them, considering they seem like the most dangerous team so far. Plus, if we don’t get in this competition, we don’t have to worry about this team at all.”

“We still want to get in the competition though! If we do, no matter what they or anyone else throws at us, we’ll be able to overcome it!”

Mya feels the nervousness fade away as she’s reassured by her clones, remembering the challenges she faced when she was alive as well as challenges she faced when she went on her adventures. As Team 7 is announced, Mya and her clones look at it, and they are all filled with pure elation as they see which team comes up on screen.

Notes:

Original Mya’s dialogue is pink.

Emotional Mya’s dialogue is red.

Rational Mya’s dialogue is purple.

Meanwhile Torrent:

Back cover: REVEALED!

Finally, the reveal of our back cover in full! With 18 different artists, this collaborative cover (assembled by @bgsartcavern) shows how Just Shapes & Beats brought all different people together. Did you recognize anyone?

OUR WONDERFUL BACK COVER ARTISTS: @adventum-vaqui - @altromarnice - @alvilitytoart - @bgsartcavern - @beauh - @ckisle - @deltaqi - @dividedsingularity - @l00tkirby - @lukolucky - @lumhere - @pandoranoss - @poison-nekomimi - @real-ink-demon - @scindomundi - @slimyteeths - @soramarriaz - @spinnincircus

@nyazh Hi, we're here for the audition :] This isn't our first time, but we wanted to participate and have the opportunity to bring some joy to the kids.

The team name is : 🕷️⚠️ (Spider Warning) Ref:

Something is coming...

18 characters. 18 artists. 18 AUs. All that together, and you get the back cover of Beyond Shapes & Beats: A JSaB Anniversary Fanzine.

For a zine meant to represent the vast and diverse community that JSaB has, a single artwork wouldn't fully encapsulate that uniqueness. Because of this, the front and back covers of Beyond Shapes & Beats are collaborative - with a different artist for every character. Do you recognize any of these silhouettes? Check back for the full reveal, coming soon!
