first post on lemmy in like ages (though i've been actively lurking). life's been busy

spring 2024 mini newsletter just dropped! saw a thing at the end of the interview with papyrus and thought it had great potential for a meme template. so have some undertale yellow. what fight are we talking about here? insert the same answer that martlet gave.

made this little remix, wanted to share with you guys!

have had this idea for quite a while now. wonder how many people will catch on to what i mean by that ;)

(also snuck in another little detail. not sure which one's easier to catch, but it was fun to put in regardless :) (and also allowed me to be a bit more lazy with things!))

composed in musescore. transcribed the original track in 0cc-famitracker, and made an edit using audacity.

elfilin syndrome (lemmy.world)
 

[image: "Bad Syndrome" meme

(wikipedia page: elfilin Syndrome)

"Instead of brain there is chimchila"

(page image: happy elfilin instead of brain, as per description)
(caption: look at him!!!)

(instead of empty space there is more chimchila:

  • elfilin
  • elfilin mask
  • elfilin magnet
  • elfilin plush
  • elfilin from music festival

)

table of contents:

  1. Treatment
    1. why would you want treatment
    2. drink lots of apple juice (inflicts bandee syndrome)

this idea randomly spawned into what would be my brain if i didn't have elfilin syndrome. please enjoy the chimchilapost

further description (by me, not the artist): on one side of the image, kirby and elfilin trick-or-treating together in witch hats. on the other side, some drawings of elfilin in halloween costumes -- one where he's dressed up as fecto elfilis (big spear included), one where he's wrapped in bandages like a mummy, and one where he's wearing a pumpkin (he's not too thrilled about it).]

happy halloween, c/kirby! haven't really had the time to contribute to this community lately (and, by the looks of it, neither has anyone else), but i wasn't going to pass up the perfect opportunity to share this wonderful piece of art!

really nice elfilis costume! reminds me of those pokemon halloween fanart pieces where unevolved pokemon dress up as their evolutions

i was thinking about how elfilin was shaped like a heart for some kind of valentine's day concept. and then... that turned into the following kirby/deltarune crossover thing. spoilers for kirby and the forgotten land!

oh, that's wonderful! thanks for the translation!

found this adorable thing on deviantart. the artist also has a lot of other cute kirby stuff!

...cages in kirby and the forgotten land are... weird. somehow the act of simply touching them causes them to colourfully disintegrate. and what exactly does it look like when dedede/sillydillo swings a cage and catches elfilin/kirby inside?

i looked at slowed-down footage. the cage is actually already closed when they're swinging the thing. kirby/elfilin just straight up clips into the closed cage. and when you mash your way out of the cage, kirby just simply clips out of the cage -- what you see in the image.

so beautiful

accessible version:

Kirby, Bandee, and Elfilin are going through Alivel Mall for the first time.

Kirby and Bandee, eyes sparkling: An Invincible Candy!

Kirby becomes invincible.

Kirby, happy: Poyo!

Bandee immediately runs over to Kirby. The two of them kiss.

Bandee becomes invincible.

Bandee, happy: Wanya!

Kirby, smiling wide: Hey Elfilin! Kiss!

Elfilin, shocked: Huh!?

Elfilin, worried: Um, OK...

Elfilin becomes invincible.

Elfilin, eyes sparkling, thinking: Whoa! I feel so... powerful now!

The three of them glance at each other. They wordlessly, unanimously agree on what happens next.

In unison, in joy, they yell: Charge!

...And that's how Alivel Mall got ravaged by three kids and a lollipop.

The end.


for the 4th installment of this series, have a sweet little mini-interaction between the trio in the 4th stage of kirby and the forgotten land!

as always, hope you enjoy, and feel free to leave any comments or feedback that you have!

my initial thought was that it actually didn't use that many leitmotifs: just spamton's two motifs, the world revolving + power of neo, and dummy!. but that's actually more leitmotifs (5) than hopes and dreams (4: once upon a time A and C, your best friend, and snowdin town), chaos king (3: card castle, lancer, legend), and attack of the killer queen (3 or 4: queen, maybe another queen motif somewhere?, berdly's 2 motifs), assuming i have everything correct! (i'm counting each distinct section of a source song as a unique leitmotif.)

watched the linked video for the first time, though i'm sure i've seen it plenty of times in my recommendations. i didn't consider melody A'' to be a variation of melody A, but i suppose it kinda makes sense. i assume this was one of the more influential analyses of big shot's leitmotifs?

[–] NumericBiconditional 1 points 1 year ago

accessible version (not an exact transcription):

Kirby, Bandee, and Elfilin are making their way through the Wondaria theme park.

Elfilin, confused: A water pipe?

Kirby thinks for a moment before coming up with an idea.

He puts his mouth on the water pipe, and fills up with water like a balloon.

He then waddles over to a nearby patch of mud, and sprays it all away.

Elfilin, happy: Neat idea, Kirby!

Kirby happily hums a "Thank you!"

The three of them move forward, with Kirby washing away more mud (and enemies, too). They hop up a newly cleaned (courtesy of Kirby) set of stairs.

As Kirby blasts away more enemies, Bandee sees some flowers that aren't doing too well.

Bandee: Looks like those flowers up ahead could use some water, too!

Kirby obliges. The flowers, once dull and wilted, now stand tall and vibrant.

Bandee, happy: Nice job!

Kirby happily hums a "Poyo!"

Kirby tries to climb up a ladder to the next area. Unfortunately, he's too large and heavy to do so.

He then tries -- and (of course) fails -- to jump up there without the ladder.

This makes him sad for a moment, but then he starts thinking...

...And he turns to face Bandee with a mischievious smile.

Bandee, worried, thinking: Uh-oh. What's he planning to do--

Bandee yelps as Kirby blasts him in the face with a stream of water.

Bandee, playfully upset: Kirby!

Kirby's still wearing that mischievious smile.

Bandee screams as he barely dodges another stream of water from Kirby.

Kirby starts spinning around in an attempt to hit Bandee, who lets out another scream -- much more playfully this time -- as he runs in a circle around Kirby.

Elfilin, a safe distance above all the action, watches the two with great amusement.

A few seconds pass. Kirby starts to run low on water... but as he loses water, he also gains speed!

Bandee, scared, thinking: Oh no! He's getting faster!

Bandee, determined, thinking: ...That just means I gotta get faster, too!

Bandee picks up the pace.

A few more seconds pass. Kirby still hasn't scored a second hit on Bandee.

Kirby, a bit tuckered out, pauses for a moment to catch his breath.

Bandee doesn't notice! He continues to run around Kirby...

...who, seizing the opportunity, blasts out all of his remaining water right as Bandee runs past him again!

Bandee yelps again as all the water hits him.

Kirby, happy: Poyo!

Kirby, smiling: ...I'm all outta water!

Elfilin, happy: That looked like fun!

Kirby, pleased: Yeah, it was!

Bandee, happy: Well, it was really fun, but...

Bandee, relieved: I'm just glad it's over now!

Elfilin looks at the two of them with a happy expression...

...but then he notices something.

Elfilin, happy: ...Hey, Kirby!

Elfilin, winking: I see another water pipe up ahead!

Bandee, playfully upset: Elfilin!

The end.

[accessible version here. (yes, a link from a different instance than the one i actually wrote the comment on. lemmy.world is being weird with comment links at the moment.)]

it's been a while since i've last posted one of these, hasn't it? some of it was just life getting in the way, but i also worked on two other scripts before deciding to save those for later installments.

for those who don't know, this is the third installment of a series that i'm doing in which kirby, bandana dee, and elfilin do and talk about various stuff, told through a sequence of undertale-style text boxes. it was meant to be a way for me to contribute reasonably lowish-effort yet highish-quality content to this community on a regular basis.

...yeah the "regular basis" thing didn't entirely work out this time.

anyway, hope you enjoy! feel free to give any questions, comments, and criticism you have!

 

and here he is with his long-awaited cover of two planets approach, along with some other new goodies! what an experience

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baphomet

Baphomet is a deity allegedly worshipped by the Knights Templar that subsequently became incorporated into various occult and Western esoteric traditions. The name Baphomet appeared in trial transcripts for the Inquisition of the Knights Templar starting in 1307. It first came into popular English usage in the 19th century during debate and speculation on the reasons for the suppression of the Templar order. Baphomet is a symbol of balance in various occult and mystical traditions, the origin of which some occultists have attempted to link with the Gnostics and Templars, although occasionally purported to be a deity or a demon. Since 1856 the name Baphomet has been associated with the "Sabbatic Goat" image drawn by Éliphas Lévi, composed of binary elements representing the "symbolization of the equilibrium of opposites": half-human and half-animal, male and female, good and evil, etc. Lévi's intention was to symbolize his concept of balance, with Baphomet representing the goal of perfect social order.

...huh

ralsei is the one trying to maintain the balance of light and dark, i suppose

*google translates the title*

...yeah

[–] NumericBiconditional 2 points 1 year ago

ah, that little detail! what's even more intriguing is that it's only the first two bars of the theme

[–] NumericBiconditional 3 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

it's not an easy question for me!

i'll highlight two from undertale: first, it's pretty cool how waterfall is kind of a "leitmotif bridge" between ruins and another medium / core. too bad snowy isn't connected in the same way

more notably: the way don't give up uses the variation of the ruins leitmotif from an ending / undyne's neutral death theme is pretty amazing. with pretty much the exact same melody and rhythm, it manages to go from depressing and emotional to inspiring... and emotional.

for deltarune, i'll highlight two from chapter 1 and one from chapter 2. i like how field of hopes and dreams, as the very first "proper" area theme, heavily emphasizes the don't forget leitmotif, using it in a cheerful, upbeat way.

as for one of the very last songs in chapter one, the way chaos king just blasts you with the legend section C in a refreshing burst of determination and hope that contrasts nicely with the rest of the theme... yeah even in chapter 1, despite lacking the various improvements of chapter 2, toby fox absolutely nailed it with everything music-wise.

and as for chapter 2, the way berdly's theme is incorporated into attack of the killer queen is both surprisingly subtle (especially since it actually takes up more of the song than queen's own leitmotif(!)) and, just, pleasant to listen to. in particular, i love the way they changed around the rhythm for section B of berdly's theme.

[–] NumericBiconditional 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

in my opinion:

titles that are just awesome: Two Planets Approach the Roche Limit, The Star Conquering Traveler, The Raging Lion Roars, The World to Win, Faded Dream of a Psychomeddler, Settling a Score ~ Atone for One's Misdeeds!, Supreme Ruler's Coronation - OVERLORD, A Full-Speed Farewell from the New World, probably a whole bunch more but i'm gonna end there

titles that inherit their awesomeness from something else: The Wastes Where Life Began, "Mistilteinn, Tree Crown without a Ruler"

titles that are nice in some other way: From Those Who Departed for Space, I'm a Hungry Pink Puffball!, Soaring Determination: No Night is Eternal

titles that i pay more attention to than the song they come from: Please Don't Inhale the Cinema Patrons

a nice title for a not-so-pleasant song: Eternal Echo of the Thrilling Tour-our-our

unofficial titles that i prefer over the official ones: Moonstruck Blossom [official: Fatal Blooms in Moonlight], Looming Darkness [Another Dimension], Fly! Kirby of the Stars [Fly, Kirby!], Swole Dedede Scuffle [Macho of Dedede]

unofficial title where although the official one is cooler, i'm way more used to the unofficial one: Under My Control [Welcome Your New Overlord]
