HELLO EXSILIUM

my name's jean, i already play here with Sollux Captor and that annoying NPC, and i said to myself, "you know, I think i need someone even more annoying to play as" so here we are. This is Sho Minamimoto from The World Ends With You! He looks like a total punk, right? Right. But he's also A COMPLETE MATH NERD AND ART SNOB. Who saw that one coming?

ANYWAY my plurk is cakejustice and my aim is vendingmachinedd, and I'm still setting up his journal stuff but yes :u

[ventusaerius]

But do the citizens of Exsilium appreciate abstract junk art? it's not like that's ever stopped Minamimoto from gracing insignificant variables with his high art before.

eeee TWEWY yes. ;v; so is Minamimoto coming in from week 2 or week 3?

[thegrimheaper]

they will learn to appreciate his fine art

or they will become part of it!!!

He's from week 2, for now. I may canon update him later, though.

[ventusaerius]

who can turn down such a handsome lion-- wait no

So he comes in with his jacket buttoned. THAT IS GOOD TO KNOW because it'd be distracting otherwise aha... haha... orz

[thegrimheaper]

you were saying??

[juneshero]

HEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEY B) 10/10

...

I mean
what
excuse you
that's indecent. 8//////C

sob I need to play through the game (again) on solo remix BUT I'M SO CONDITIONED TO THE DS CONTROLS

[thegrimheaper]

i dont think i could play it on iOS honestly i'd be so confused

[juneshero]

confusing is a pretty good way of putting it. Though I like the fusion attacks, those are fun also gorgeous to look at o bby all those clean lines. Everything else during noise reduction? A little hard to get used to after spending all that quality time with the DS version. orz

[thegrimheaper]

if i had a tablet or whatever it is that thing runs on, i would probably at least try it for how clean those lines are, MY VECTOR FETISH SHOWS IT'S TRUE FORM but yeah i'd imagine it's super hard to actually like. fight.

[enduringwinter]

It's on the iOS systems, so an iPad or an iPhone would work. BUT DUDE

THOSE LINES
ARE SO CLEAN AND FRESH
IT'S SUPER GORGEOUS?! also how accurate huhu

Anyway, the pin commands are about the same but you actually have to like... tap or slash to bring your partner out which leads to some pretty hilarious moments of Joshua running across the screen to drop a car on a Noise. IRRITATING WHEN YOU'RE TRYING TO USE A SPECIFIC PIN BUT END UP SUMMONING YOUR PARTNER INSTEAD but w/e I play Megaman games, I can deal with frustration.

[thegrimheaper]

oh that's annoying, but are you saying there aren't two screens anymore? Which I guess would make sense considering it's a iPad now

[sorrowfulcry]

Yeah pretty much. Instead of having your partner on a separate 'Plane'/screen, they appear as a pin (that also needs to be recharged once they're used up) and you call them the same way you would use a Pin.

So Shiki is a tap and Josh at the beginning of week 2 is a downward slash. I still... need to play further... but that's the basic gist of it. IT WORKS, but for people used to the DS version, it feels kinda jank when you first pick it up. |>;;;

[biwinning]

kiiiiind of weird :U well at least it means you dont have to worry about your partner taking a ton of damage while you're fine.

[symphonist]

I LOVE SHO I'm SO SORRY FOR EVERYTHING JOSHUA SAYS IN ADVANCE.

If you don't mind, I'ma add you on plurk because even if Josh and Sho will never get along, I can at least throw Luke at you or something.

this has nothing to do with me finding Sho attractive

[thegrimheaper]

YES OF COURSE and i live for josh being an ass to sho so it all works out

stupid sexy sho

ALSO where did you get your icons?? Because I know that with the iOS release there were vector art pics of all the characters, but I cannot find where the hell they be at

[symphonist]

STUPID SEXY PUNK JACKASS HITTING EVERY SINGLE ONE OF MY ART PINGS

I made my icons myself, except the ones with the purple backgrounds! I got the vector art.. uh... shit... I think off the wiki?? But I'll try my google fu for you, lovelie.

YES I FOUND SOME
send a mop

EDIT THE THIRD, I will whip up some icons for you if you'd like :3

[mathematician]

aaahhh ty for finding them! your icons are very lovely and I will probably fail to make ones as nice, but I'm not doing anything at work so I will probably fiddle with these for a bit. thank you for the offer and i might take you up on it anyway if i really suck with making them myself

[symphonist]

Aww, thanks! Yeah, icons are a great time waster.

I also have some hi res official art (I think some of it had Sho in it)... maybe later I will trawl pixiv, if you are into fanart icons.

[mathematician]

i am into all icons forever. the last time I went looking for sho art/icons though was like, 2010... so my icons/art stockpile are woefully outdated.

[symphonist]

I know this feeling. I just got into TWEWY so I'm pretty fortunate. Solo Remix is out and people hopped on that shit like no tomorrow.

I'll see if I can make some magic happen ;D

[whippersnappering]
