additionally, if i can’t find one with the right robotic design already on it, im more that willing to get a solid color one and simply paint my own design on it.

Hello there!

I'm not going to be great and finding something with a specific design, unfortunately, since that's not in my area of expertise, but I can point you towards some resources for suits you can paint on, so I'm glad you're okay doing that. I know a lot about undergarments :P

When painting, either wear the suit with something underneath (like plastic wrap) to protect your skin, or stretch it over something the same general size and shape as yourself. This will ensure that the designs are in the correct places on your body and that they will stretch and move with the suit.

My suggestion would be to get a bodysuit made for dancewear if you can find one that fits you (size ranges tend to be a bit narrow). Capezio is my personal favorite brand. I'm not sure what color you want, but you can usually dye these, as they are typically a nylon/spandex blend. Look for white if you want to dye it to an unnatural skin tone. The good news is that these will usually be matte rather than glossy, which is better at imitating skin.

I seem to remember some sort of controversy with We Love Colors a while back (but can't remember what it was haha do some research if that bothers you.....I want to say it was being weird about BLM?), and I remember stopping buying from them because of it, but they do have a good selection of colors if you're comfortable buying from them.

Another option if you fit into the very narrow sizing is to buy a bodysuit from Classe Wig. They sell on Amazon now (so no shopping service needed). They have bodysuits meant to prevent exposing too much skin at cosplay events/to prevent being too cold at cosplay events, and I'd trust their quality.

Another option but might be a bit...well, there's usually padding sewn in to imitate a feminine figure, is to look at skin suits for kigurumi cosplayers. These will be very heavy and opaque and come in typical masculine sizes, but typically come in light skin tones and have the aforementioned padding.

The final option is to sew your own, which would get you custom fit and materials, but would be extra work. A matte miliskin for an opaque look or a light (non compressive) stretch mesh or powernet (again, non compressive, not heavy powernet) for a look that allows your skin to show through. The latter would be good if you want "skin but with visible augments in a few places" rather than "full robot looking arms."

I'm not sure how much skin the design shows, but if whatever you get has too much compression for your sensory needs, you might be able to cut away part of the fabric (and rehem it if possible, just to prevent it from stretching out) around the bust to give a little extra room.

I would recommend getting a snap crotch bodysuit and tights separate is possible, though, since it will be easier to pee than if you have to wrestle off a full unitard.

thank you!!! hgahgashjad i LIVE for the secret identity shenaniganry extravangza hahaa there's so much angst potential in undercover au too.

i sometimes think if i'd gone the full longfic route, it would've been very dark and angsty rather than light-hearted and hijinks-leaning. the comic strip format, and the fact I wanted to experiment with style etc, has helped make the tonal balance what it is, I think. and i actually think it's landed in a really good place! it's always fun to make, and i can pick and choose when i'm in the mood for making what kind of content.

the burned hand was something i couldn't not include! i also love seeing more realistic takes that treat danny's injury/death with the weight it deserves. so even in a story i intend to keep primarily light, it only seemed right to still give the subject the sort of tone i think is due. because life is always a mixed bag like that, you know?

i feel like if my brain was clearer i could say a lot of things about going through the hard things in life with the people who love you but uhhh *the sound of two brain cells bumping into each other like empty glass bottles* yeah

FEAR is the only reasonable response to being that close to any kind of large cetacean, but that goes triple for orcas.

Depends on how long it will take to get the capture card and if you intend to record an entire playthrough. If you’re fine with streaming mid-playthrough, I would just have fun right now. But then again, if the capture card is there tomorrow and you want to start from the very beginning, I would wait until the next day. Another possibility is starting a playthrough now, but doing another one later for your stream.
