Felt like recreating one of the scenes from the chapter, so I hope you enjoy!!

YOOOOOOO!!! NEIGHBOR, I LOVE THIS!!! 😃😃😃😃

STAR'S LITTLE FACE WHEN HE FELL IN LOVE IS PERFECT!!

Thank you so much for this, its a perfect anniversary picture, and its definitely one of my favorite scenes I've written so far!

I'm currently writing the next chapter, so more cuteness is coming soon!

Thanks, @your-ne1ghbor!

Also I've been considering making my own enasona and I was wondering if itd be okay to share it here if I ever did create one-

Oh my god pls do share!! I'd love to see ur ENAsona!!!!

oh you’re so sweet T-T thank you so much you’ve made me smile today hhhh i simply Do Not Deserve—

and i don’t mind at all! i really do love rambling about this sort of stuff and questions like these let me indulge myself adjsjs

believe it or not, but initially rascal was kind of difficult for me to plot! i didn’t know what direction i wanted to take it in for a very long time, even though i knew i loved the concept of pirate!bokuto. i didn’t know if i wanted the reader to also be a pirate (and if they were, whether or not they’d be friend or foe), whether the world would be fantastical or closer to historical fact (and how much research would be required for both), etc.

i went with the bartender plot because it would require the least amount of legwork in terms of plot and worldbuilding. not that i was trying to be lazy! it was more that if i was going to build the world i felt was necessary for a fic where the reader was also a pirate, it would have to be for more than just a one-shot (and at that period in my life i simply didn’t have the time to sink into worldbuilding and planning for a series).

from there, i thought it would be cute to play the angle of “bokuto trying — and continually failing — to impress his crush.” it was easier from there-on out to come up with little scenarios to string together, and once i had enough ideas from brainstorming i picked out the most effective ones. i also just played on my favourite tropes from the genre — swords, outfits, shenanigans. i tend to find bokuto fairly easy to brainstorm plots for because i just draw on his natural capacity for chaos.

If yes, reply with a message showing a cool outfit.

(That way I can draw him in that outfit later.)

Hola! ✌

OMG, ABSOLUTELY!! I've got just the outfit here:

I always thought he could rock a star tuxedo! 😂

Does Cosmic!Star have legs?

I'M SORRY THIS TOOK FOREVER, FORGIVE ME 😭

The answer is yes, he does! It just takes more energy to use them!

Like I referenced in a previous post, this form is inspired by Dark!Genie's form. While Genie didn't show his legs in that form, I moved his regular bottom half over to Cosmic!Star. When he first transformed, he only used his upper half since just wanted to hit the king. When we get to the Disney Kaiju Battle, Star will be filled with so much rage and energy that he can form legs to balance on.

When going up against Magnifico, he does fight in a gorilla fighting style, not only referencing Kerchak's fights (Tarzan), but he also puts more energy into his upper body to punch. Star only knows how animals would fight, so this is the closest to human fighting he can get.

Star's legs can bend and move, but its in more of a squash and stretch style, which is why he doesn't have toes. Its like putty constantly changing shape!

Thanks so much, @tumblingdownthefoxden!! Let me know if you have anymore questions! 😉

Reposting this ask because I STILL LOVE THEM, AAAAAA!!! ⭐⭐

Go follow my bestie, @thesafireartist, HER ART IS BEAUTIFUL!!!

I’ve come to like the idea that Star’s magic gets more powerful, the stronger he and Asha love each other. I mean it was a classic thing, true love conquers all. Think you could or will be interpreting anything like that in the story?

Yes! I've been really thinking how it will come about by the finale. But right now, there's a scene planned for At All Costs where as Star and Asha dance, his magic changes her regular outfit into a princess dress and crown (showing how he sees her) and his outfit into a prince outfit (showing how she sees him). Showing how much stronger his magic is with her.

Also, I'm including the deleted scene where Star needs one more ingredient to free the wishes. In that, I've written in that the key to freeing them is love. Asha accidentally gave him the answer back when he fixed her pencil, and later on he heals Flazino by thinking of his love for Asha. So I'm trying to put in as many hints as possible that its Asha and Star's love that will save the wishes.

Thanks, @purple-eyesgreydragon! ✨

Here's more lore, you guys!

These are just small examples.

Hola! 👋

Star does indeed have a scar! Its located on his right shoulder and has recently spread a bit down his arm. Its colored green like Magnifico's magic, since its lingering on him. Its more like this particular example, just along the right shoulder and arm!

Its visible in his human, plush and animal form just in various sizes. His Cosmic form doesn't have it at all since he's using so much magic, he's practically all black. Its also made his arms a bit weaker so that's why when he fought Magnifico he was using animals that didn't require him to use his hands. (Kangaroo, Deer, ect.) It kind of hurts every now and then, but Star never says anything. That's not good. 😅

It will be addressed in the story soon, cause Asha needs to know why he never told her.

Thanks, @evestarsart!

Here's some more lore for you guys!
