this is an ooc post

hello everyone.

contrary to some people's beliefs, you are not allowed to steal or "claim" my oc lore that i told you i was planning on releasing.

Unnamed oc just kidding their/his name is X-JG374

They’re a test tube boy, summarizing general lore here;

Mojo Jojo created him after a bunch of failed tests, X-JG374 is the longest living test subject to be made from human tissue without previously being contacted with chemical x. Their history is filled with memories of living a majority of his life inside connected to machinery. Being only a few days old, 374 is about as naive as the girls were when they first were made, the exception being that jojo built him from a petrie dish. After many failed attempts to create a more “natural” heroine, they created a genetic anomaly. Feeding specifically on X-concentrate through an IV and receiving electric shock therapy for physical movement, decreased cranial pressure, and better motor skills. Without super strength, or the usual catalog of powers for these bug eyed babies, Jojo decided to continue experimentation until 374 could operate without dysfunctions. There has been many before, but many did not exceed stage 6 in formation, making them failed cases or cases left aside for further processed experimentation or genetic modification.

So far 374 has been the only successful manmade by hand child, and they are very aware of their circumstances. Being the only of four brothers who couldnt go outside as long, or the outer tissue cells would deconstruct, dragging his tangle of tubes and wires across every playroom their fathers had given them. 374 has poor eyesight, and does not have a visible pupil inside the iris, that or there is no iris, and their eyes nearly form a solid color; mainly reflecting the color from the environment around him. The bones ache within its small confinement, and only god knows what happens when X-JG374 cannot fit inside their skin anymore. Its so itchy, and sometimes the concentrate from the IV is so addictive, what could be the worst that would happen if 374 had too much of it, or in the circumstance, if they’re without it for too long, what would happen to them.

I’m still fond of the ppg, i still have really good friends from the fandom im just not chill with the fandom like, at all. Ive met great people, amazing people in fact. But there is an UNCHECKED AMOUNT of horrible behavior in that fandom that comes MAINLY FROM THE ADULTS. My friends and the good ones are the only bright things about it but there is just a lot of burnout around me and ppg related stuff.

I cant believe i drew ppg from 14, till 21 nearly. Thats a lot of time just on that alone and ive always loved the show since i was a little girl. No its not because of the 3000+ folder of EVERY PPG OC ON DEVIANTART FROM ONCE THE FIRST ONE WAS TAGGED TILL CURRENT DAY 2023 that i was dedicating myself to draw because i love every damn character i come across. It literally has made my pc into a big brick lmao

🫣 Yes there was a lot, yeah i actually drew about roughly 60% of those characters before i completely burnt out, every day all day 😫 a lot of them are for the same people and yknow what i get every time thatd make me keep going???

“Oh my goodness!! I never thought anyone would notice my character/draw art of them (ever somtimes included)” and a thank you or permission to use the piece and im like HELL YEAH BROTHER USE THAT SHIT IDC MAKE IT YOUR PFP THATS WHAT I WAS WANTING WHEN I MADE OCS AS A KID WAS SO OTHERS WOULD DRAW THEM!! I DO THAT 💖🥺🥺🥺❤️‍🔥 because of the love

I actually was gifted two ocs i had drawn art for because the creator was like , wow this chara is so old i forgot i made it, you want it?? YES ARE YOU KIDDING ME…. I LITERALLY canonically own one of the title card mary sue girls from the fandom i feel amazing about it dude, like one of the first ones you see on google with the huge purple hair and sparkles?? Shes literally my adopted baby now 😭 art is so loving and charitable BUT I DONT LIKE BEING USED FOR ART. creation for creation . EQUAL EFFORT.

Idk, maybe I'm just not paying enough attention to the mess, but I literally have no idea who these characters are half the time and what their relevance is. It's all just nostalgia for the sake of nostalgia, and it fucking sucks for those of us who's only enjoyed the New Who era.

And as someone who's only watched the show from the start of the New Who era, I don't think it's fair to be told that I "should just watch the Classic Era if I want context" because RTD literally did Classic Who reintroductions so well back in his first era. I adored Sarah Jane Smith and understood that she had a past relationship with the Doctor, because it was explained in the show! But I loved her for how she was protrayed in New Who, independent and taking what she learned from her time with the Doctor to do good - because we got to know her! I don't have to go back and rewatch Classic Who to properly enjoy Sarah Jane because of how her reintroduction in New Who was done.

Majority of the villains from the Classic era also get reintroduced so well. I loved that the audience was from the perspective of the companion instead of the Doctor. That way we got to learn about these species at the same pace as them, by picking up on context clues of how the Doctor interacts with them and talks about them. Dalek is so good for this reason - It's the New Who audience's first introduction to the Daleks and we learn throughout the episode that they're an evil species that wiped out the Doctor's entire planet, which is why he hates them so much. They're not plopped into the story with the expectation that the audience should know who the Daleks are, because the audience doesn't.
