The Failed Star Jupiter Planets and their star, Sol. If you don’t know, FSJ is a lil concept musical about Jupiter trying to overthrow the Sun with the help of/manipulation of the devious Pluto. It’s planetary politics! (Way more fun and fantastical than real ones…) Other star systems and stars get involved, asteroids, moons— Some support the Sun, some support Jupiter. Most Stars are biased, and don’t believe planets can run Star Systems. Jupiter’s always been disgraced— they were meant to be a star but never quite got powerful enough. This disgrace and shame followed them all their life, impacting their self-image— and that’s how you make a planet that is bitter enough to plan to overthrow their oldest friend and beloved star.

Also if you’re wondering “why are the planets the wrong colours?” I take different images from different famous, techy telescopes (Ultraviolet, Infrared, etc).

Then there are their Dance of the Planets outfits! That’s a grand gala, like it says, that is hosted by a different Star every millennium. Coincidentally, this turn is Sol’s! How willll the Solar System navigate this amidst the huuuuge political scandal going on? Also yes, you CAN draw your moonsona at the Dance of the Planets, ofcccccccc! Jupiter and Sol definitely have to dance at some point.

Finally, rarely seen and used, the casual outfits! They bareeeely wear these. Also Neptune is in a silly little sailing outfit. They love the water so much.

If you’re wondering, LOOSELY! Mars is based off of Japanese culture, Uranus is based off of Indian culture, Venus = Philippines, Earth/Terra = Ghana, Saturn = Kuwaiti.

Their personalities I’ll get into later but in short, they are as their planets represent in Astrology like I’ve shown.

Pluto: Devious, manipulative but very very smooth, power hungry, chic. She’s the main villain. Jupiter will realise they’ve been manipulated into overthrowing the Sun FOR Pluto’s revenge plot.

Mercury: He’s logical, communicative and intelligent. He’s always there to listen. And always running around.

Jupiter: The main character. They basically had gifted kid syndrome and didn’t live up to it (aka, failed to become a star to rule alongside Sol). They’re all about luck but feel so unlucky. But they still represent expansion and that is what they intend to do to their power.

Mars: Aggressive, loves fights, easily swayed by emotional arguments unlike Mercury. They’re very excited for this competition (figurative) between Sol and Jupiter.

Venus: A total sweetheart, can get a biiit jealous, very artistic. She remembers when Jupiter and Sol, a young planet and protostar, loved each other more— or at all.

Terra/Earth: She’s the Apple of the Milky Way Galaxy’s eye. She has life on her! She supports the Sun because OF COURSE SHE DOES! She knows well that her people need Sol and prefers stability.

Neptune: Our sea child (by child I mean like billions of years old adult who’s a bit eccentric.) She’s very very dreamy, a bit unaware, but powerful. She’s neutral on the rebellion.

Uranus: Problem stirrer. He LOVES rebellion, any rebellion! Just make something interesting happen! He supports Jupiter entirely to be a problem and everyone expected it.

Saturn: He keeps the order in the entire Galaxy, he’s a powerhouse cause of his ring. Jupiter’s kind of jealous— Saturn’s physical power is second biggest and yet they’re more admired for their ring! Anyway Saturn’s always drained, exhausted, done with everyone (bit of an exaggeration— he’s a working dad type). He’s done bad things to keep the system safe and Jupiter now knows. Blackmailing Saturn is the only reason Jupiter even CAN overthrow the Sun. Stars can’t be easily beaten. You need soooo much power, yours and your friends’!

Sol: The star behind, well, the SOLar System! They used to be intimately involved with their system. When they and Jupiter, who I’m gonna refer to as their real life nickname Jove, we’re young, they assumed “We’ll be a Binary Star System (2 stars like usual), but Jove failed and Sol bears the load. Since, they’re rarely seen and Jupiter only grows more bitter because THEYRE practical doing the Sun’s work! Why is Sol such a hermit! They never intended to hurt Jupiter.

woah.. another oc??

Meet Ganymede, the largest moon of Jupiter.

I like to think he is a very big fighter, his whole goal is to become stronger.

What funny about him though, is that he’s not very happy with his title as a “Moon”. While he is deeply loyal to Jupiter, he thinks being a moon is hindering his potential. (The actual body of Ganymede is significantly large than Pluto btw) he thinks that since Pluto was a planet, he should be too. He is the largest moon in the whole solar system for god’s sake!

Speaking of this, Ganymede is very supportive of Jupiter’s plan. He thinks that once the sun is overthrown and Jupiter takes the reins, jupiter can officially name him a planet.

Ganymede also has a personal vendetta against Callisto. He is jealous that Callisto is Jupiter’s right hand, despite Callisto’s informal attire, infuriatingly calm demeanour, and most importantly, being weaker than him. He thinks that Callisto is only the right hand because of his seniority. Ganymede takes any opportunity he can to jab at Callisto, he also constantly challenges Callisto to fights in hopes that Jupiter would see how he is much more fit to be right hand.

I drew a bunch of moonsonas (including my own) and a Jupiter

If anyone remembers the whole "me drawing moonsans." And posting them in one big tsunami.

I have around 11 works already done. I'm planning on finding all the info I collected. Before I lost the progress. And adding new ones too.
