The "Fuzzy Pickles" Chat

… Basically the premise is that– oof. How far did you get in the game?

Earthbound? Oh I haven’t beaten it, but my brother spoiled it like the asshole he is.

Oof… That's bad.
Better than spoiling Mothet 3 tho… Unless you already know.
But… Do you know what happens before Ness exits Magicant? It kinda has to do with that.

Oh shit no. I’m one of those humans that if you do something once you completely forget about it. I forgot how Sailor moon ended until I watched it again, and now it’s basically apart of my brain.

Okay….
Well, here we goes.

Basically, in my fic, this evil being that's supposed to be Ness' "hidden dark side" wants to engulf the entire world in darkness (I don't think he has a reason…).
So Queen Mary (or whatever you wanna call her), in an effort to stop this weird stuff, summons a bunch of other characters from the other games to help Ness in his journey. He has to awaken the 8 sanctuaries to empower the queen in order to deplete the darkness. But Ness himself has to defeat his own dark side.

Fhfighfnng
Probably just fucked up that description.

Oof that sounds very confusing to write.

Yeah.
But… I'm trying to change it a little.

Nice. It sounds very interesting.

Thank you.
I was also working on a Mother fic
Where Ninten Boku finds EVE, a robot made by his great grandfather or something to protect him.
She says that some other robot was coming to obliderate life on earth. For some reason, he has to find these Psionic Stones that each give him, Ana, or both of them their psionic abilities (although it contradicts the actual game of how Boku learned PSI).
Haven't touched that one in months….

I love how Ness’s name is Ness like SNES bust the S in front is moved to the back.

But also Ness is a legit real name. I think.
But it really doesn't sound like one because it's so unique. :3

If most of the names in EB are legit, I sympathize for the poor sap named Poo.

Well…. Yeah…. I wonder why, though.
But when my brothers were teasing about me liking EarthBound for whatever reason, I always lied and told them his name was Poe instead. What a shame… I feel bad looking back on it.

To be honest, I'm assuming Poo was meant as a joke for kids who would mash through the naming section. If they didn't want to take the time to name their characters, they'd get a (not really) nasty surprise.

Oof that’s a great theory like question.

I'm not sure…. It's kinda hard to name the characters something else when the names fit the characters so well….
And also they can just say "don't care" and another name like Kato or Omar or Aziz can be used instead of Poo.

But would a kid care enough to do that? Putting the regular names are easier.

Yeah, true.
But I dunno… I just like the original names because they fit so well… I mean, I could careless if the Prince of Dalaam is named Poo.
I just care if he has one at all.

Lel true.

Yeha.
Yet… Fuck the Sword of Kings. That's just bitching with me.

Oof

You have like a 1/128 chance of finding it on a Starman in the underground Stonehenge Base. And it's the only attacking weapon Poo can use.
Ugh. I never found it…

Lel any rare item there is in a game I’ll never get it unless I don’t want it.

Oof.
Well…. I mean…. I've beat the game without it… But… It just makes it feel incomplete.

Well technically it is incomplete because it’s not one hundred percent.

Well yeah.
But… Uh….
Yeah. There's this comic on Starmen.net called "The Chosen Four" and it's the best shit I've ever read.
The art during the first chapter or two are horrible…. But after that, it's amazing.

Nice.

And the humor's relentlessly awesome, too. But it has some gorey parts too– like when Poo's mastering his Mu training or whatever and he gets all his limbs torn off or broken or whatever…

Jesus Christ.

Yeah.
There's plenty of upsetting stuff, but overall, it's very well done.
