#neb oc

iiiit's....drumroll, please....EMOTIONSONA TIME!!! nebbymotions. these are the weird gay people in my own head. <3 i started working on these guys a WHILE ago, and i'm finally done with the core 5 and can drop them on here!! they're a strange, strange little group of coworkers. my brain wormsss 🪱🪱🪱🪱🪱

they've also got their own signature items, too, because uhhh. why not 🤭 i'm also a lover of weird hair in character design....so that's sort of the connecting visual motif between all the emotions in general. some weird stuff going on with their hair <3

my secondary emotions are ALSO coming...relatively soon-ish!! but for now, here's a relationship chart of just these five. joyness toxic yuri, tearbrick qpr, whatever the helllll fear has going on and much more!! they also have dynamics with the secondary emotions that i'll get to eventually.

wholeee buncha disgustsona stuff i drew, like. a million bajillion years ago. have only now realized how much i've compiled of this guy. feat a human design, even. what can i say! i love him! she's a real charmer. even if he loves making me get so caught up in social stuff that i forget i have a body with physical needs.

self-proclaimed HR of headquarters isn't the easiest job in the world, though. good thing she's such a sweetheart that it's pretty much impossible for any of his coworkers to hate him. even sadness isn't immune to them!

two mean girls, they're just too cool losers to hang out with anyone else 🙂‍↕️

you'll never guess what i've been doing!! or well. maybe you will. ANYWAYS. i made a cognition OC!! meet RAM, the program! a lot of psych theories on language liken the way we learn it and store memories of it to computers...so i leaned hard into that route and MAN was it fun!!!

RAM's just...horribly scared all the time. language is such a nuanced and complex thing, so i don't blame em....though i think they need to chill. poor thing </3 it's tough being a living computer! they're also besties and coworkers with my buddy gene @re-colligere 's cognition OCs, too: the Designer/Dess and the Architect/Archie!! so expect interactions with them as well LOL. the cognitions three!!

ANDDD they have a portable version you can take on the go—the LAD! a pun on noam chomsky's language acquisition device theory of how we have an innate "device" that helps us learn language from birth. went ahead and turned it into an actual, well. Device!! feat. some antics with archie and joy as well (i also ship ram with joy 😳 but i'll save posting more about that for later. just know that the two have a rivalry and bicker, like. CONSTANTLY. woah!!!)

back at it again with my emotionsona joyness nonsense 🫡🥰 i love when they suck. so bad <33

been wanting to make a mind worker oc for a whileee now! SO now you get twofer one. first is nila!! who is sort of a combo of a sona and an oc....they're a lead choreographer at dream productions because surprise fun fact about me!! i'm trained in 10+ years of classical dance :] he's....kind of a weirdo, though. gloomy little thang. very fragile under pressure and threatens to quit like, every other day. it's their running gag. she loves her job, but is a chronic complainerrr. all things considered though, she's doing pretty fine. and i am nowhere NEAR this miserable in reality i promiseee LMAO i just wanted to really play into the fact that my favorite emotion is sadness 💙!!!

AND SECOND IS TALLY....she actually originated from a fic i wrote a while back, banned! and i love her enough that i wanted to give her an official design and fit her within existing dream productions lore. see, tally here is responsible for overseeing the entirety of studio A of dream productions....the very studio that joy and sadness infiltrated in the first movie and completely wrecked. needless to say, tally is NOT fond of them. she HATES the two. she's been holding a one-sided grudge against them ever since, and is CONVINCED they did this on purpose. meanwhile joy and sadness have. No clue who she even is . she's honestly not that fond of the emotions as a whole....funny grumpy lady. she kinda deserves a break, but absolutely refuses to take one because she knows studio A will fall apart without her.

ALSO also!! some quick bonus doodles of some other mind worker ocs, belonging to @1tsstargaze59, @sequs-art-box, @abbi-sun, and @eechytooru !! nila may be a bit insufferable but <33 he still appreciates all of you! even if he's kind of an idiot.

collection of my emotionsona joyness yuri.....they're so horrid and i've been obsessed with them, i'm afraid. toxic yuri joyness just kinda goes crazy, what can i say 😳🤷🏾

....okay realll talk, though. these two are RIVALS and they love it. the gist of their relationship is that they openly hate each other in public and then date in secret. they got a stupid "pact" that making out is just a way to "let off steam" and nothing more. as a reminder to not get all "gross and mushy." so like, you know. of course they get all gross and mushy. and of course they end up accidentally falling for each other along the way....

bit more info here because i couldn't resist doing this template for them LMAO!! they're both in deep deeeep denial and far too proud to admit it and um well i need to throw hammers at both of them about it. <3
