Next Generation - Blog Posts
So there has been a debate on how no other planet had the cultural diversity as earth in countries, languages, etc. and I think I know why. Every other planet had a global socaity BEFORE they joined the federation. A world government, universal language, and common form of money for hundreds of years. Earth did not! Earth was in the slums to the point that some guy wanted to launch himself into space as fast as he possibly could even if he had to break the speed of light to do it. However, keeping the diversity for that long made them perfect for exploring other planets better than those of global communities, allowing them to be the best captains that were willing to break the rules when needed at the same time great compromisers. To understand humanoids better than any other.

“Hold it! It seems the apple doesn’t fall far from the tree. Your Honour, the piece of evidence the defence has just presented is forged.”
I blinked, trying to calm my heart rate, I knew exactly what had happened to Dad when Aria’s father had brought up the fact that a piece of evidence he’d presented was forged, and it led to seven years of him not setting foot in a courtroom. That’s when I felt a hand on my shoulder, “(Y/n)?”
“J-Just leave me alone. I’m not going to fight it, Ally. I can’t prove it wasn’t,” I replied, trying to contain my tears as I removed my badge from my lapel, placing it on the bench in front of me before running out of the courtroom, hearing Ally chasing behind me, “(Y/n), wait!” I just ignored her, running back to the agency and curling up in a ball on one of the sofas.
“(Y/n)? (Y/n), what happened? Tell me.”
I just sobbed and clung onto my father as she ran over, giving me a hug, “Come on.”
“I-I don’t want to talk about it right now.”
“That’s alright, (Y/n). I’ll be here for you when you do want to explain.”
I took a deep breath and tried to calm my breathing, leaning on him, as I soon found myself falling asleep.
---------------------
I woke up later to voices, “What the HELL did you do?!”
“I-I..”
“You have no explanation, do you?! You’re a terrible friend, Aria!”
“I know, but please, let me apologise!”
“No,” I muttered, opening my eyes and sitting up, now realising that Trucy’s cape had been placed on top of me as a blanket, “You don’t deserve to be forgiven. I don’t care if you want to apologise, it WON’T GET ME MY BADGE BACK!” I shouted, the tears coming back to my eyes again, “I CAN’T BELIEVE I EVER FELL IN LOVE WITH YOU!” I slapped a hand across my mouth the minute I’d said the statement, and ran out of the Agency, leaving Aria and Luke shocked.
I didn’t know how long I had been running for, but I found myself by Gourd Lake. At least I knew where I was if anyone called me to ask where I’d gone. I just sat down by a tree and sighed, reprimanding myself for letting myself confess to Aria when I was supposed to be mad at her.
“(Y/n)? (Y/n) is that you?”
I looked up at the familiar voice and saw Gigi standing there, a pen in her hand. I just wiped my tears, “Oh. Hi. Yeah, I just needed some fresh air and my legs led me here. What brings you here?”
“Investigating a case. Bluford’s been assaulted and is now in the hospital, the rest of the team thinks he won’t make it, but the doctors are still hoping he will. He’s been smacked on the head by a blunt object, judging from the injury he had, and Caisie’s been accused of doing it. What’s worse is that there are witnesses! Oops… I shouldn’t be telling you all this, you might end up defending her.”
“Just stop. I’m just going to come out and say it, I lost my badge, so it doesn’t matter, Gi, I can’t defend her anyway, but I don’t really want to go into detail.”
“Oh my science, that’s not good. If you need someone to talk to, I’m here!”
“Thanks.”
----------------------------
“Wait… then who got (Y/n)? Everyone else got a gift… On no, did your name get lost in my hat?” Ally muttered, taking her hat off her head and tapping the top of it, trying to see if there was anything stuck inside.
“I’m sure that’s not the case, Ally. In fact, I do actually know where your Secret Santa is, (Y/n).”
“It’s fine. I don’t need anything anyway. Unless you’ve managed to get my badge back, Dad.”
Before he could reply, a knock was heard at the door to the agency. Dad smiled and walked over, opening the door. I couldn’t tell who it was unless I felt a tap on my shoulder, “(Y/n)?”
I tried to contain my anger at the blonde as I looked up at Aria, “What?”
“Sorry I’m late, it took longer than I expected to get your gift.”
I blinked a few times in confusion before she handed me a small box. I took in hesitantly, seeing a smile on her face. I returned my attention to the box and opened it up, gasping as I saw the small golden circular badge inside, “I-Is this a joke?” I asked, looking Aria in the eye as she chuckled, “It’s serious. I’m sorry for causing you to lose your badge, (Y/n),” she spoke, taking it out of the box, “May I?” I nodded and she came closer, pinning it back to my lapel, “That’s where it belongs, not sitting on the defence bench where you left it.”
“H-how did you get it back for me though? It must have been incredibly hard seeing as by taking it off myself and walking out of the courtroom, I was basically admitting that I knew it was forged.”
“Well, I did have a bit of help,” she replied, smiling up at Dad, causing me to smile in return as I hugged her, “Best Christmas gift ever!”
“Does this mean I’m forgiven?”
“I’m still mad at you for getting my badge taken away from me in the first place, but you got it back for me, so yes.”
“That makes me happy to hear. Now, about your confession…” Instead of finishing her sentence, she took my cheek in her hand and kissed me. My eyes went wide and I blinked, but wrapped my arms around her in response.
“Correction to my earlier statement; That was the best Christmas present ever.”
“Glad you think so, (Y/n). Glad you think so.”

Child : Mommy what are those stripes on your side?
Mom : Why those are my tiger stripes. Many women get them, you probably will too. They symbolize strength, bravery, and passion.
Child : (Smiling big and looking happy) I can't wait to get my tiger stripes just like you mommy!

Adult Ribbon (Pibby of the Stars)
Back in February, my bestie @pokesonicmaster300 posted a drawing of adult Ribbon on DA for his next gen series Pibby of the Stars, and now I intend to draw it in my style! Here's the link to the original drawing: https://www.deviantart.com/pokesonicmaster300/art/Pibby-of-the-Stars-Next-Gen-Ribbon-Unfinished-1159097698
Unfortunately, I couldn't find anything new to add to Ribbon's initial adult design like he hoped I would aside from the star she had on her childhood dress and a ring on her finger.
Buuuuut to make up for it, I gave her separate drawings for her nightgown and a cute patisserie outfit that she wears at the cafe! Oh, yeah, and I gave her nail polish because I'd imagine she'd start wearing makeup and other accessories as she grows up.
While I wasn't all that impressed with the nightgown, I was very happy with how the patisserie outfit turned out. The suit was originally meant to be white, but in order for it to fit Ribbon more (and to stand out from Kirby's white Chef hat), I changed it to pink and gave her cute little crystal buttons to her suit and the chef hat's now red. And as a little side note for that, her ribbon's still under there :3
While we're on the topic of the patisserie outfit, I'd like to confirm one thing about her childhood dream of becoming the next queen of Ripple Star: she no longer has plans on becoming the next queen and has settled herself into the role of a housewife and chef.
I'd also like to mention a little headcanon I have about Ribbon and Pibby: Pibby's favorite breakfast meal is pancakes, so whenever Ribbon takes her little girl over to the cafe for the day, she always gives Pibby double the pancakes to make her happy. Another thing about Ribbon is that she and Kirby alternate who works at the cafe during the week: Kirby works on Monday and Wednesday, and Ribbon works Tuesday and Thursday. They both work at the cafe on Friday to round off the week (taking Pibby with them because they don't want her getting hurt or running off without their supervision), and take the weekend off to relax with their kid.
And another thing about the Crystal now that she's moved to Popstar: she's still got the thing on her (she keeps it locked away from Pibby because she doesn't want her daughter playing with guns), but now the bullets it fires are much faster and stronger than before. And as a bonus, she learned how to convert it into a shield by thinking about her friends and loved ones! Where did I get that? Uh...
But overall, Ribbon's seemed to have got it all together. She can juggle being a fair mother and a top-level chef at the same time!
Taranza Partizanne (Next gen)!
As a father of three and the new king of Floralia, Taranza’s life has become more hectic than before, but has now benefitted him in various ways.
With his wife/queen Zan Partizanne by his side, Taranza has worked hard to improve the lives of those in Floralia and Dream Land. The spider has opened up a cost-efficient gardening center in Royal Road in order to promote the wonders of gardening and flora around the galaxy. To accommodate, he decided to update his attire, going from the lush, woodland-like green to a more vibrant, spring-esque gold, with small hints of red here and there. The butterfly-esque cape was designed by friends and family, as memorabilia of his old friend. “It’s like she’s here,” he said.
He still has issues with the constant battles he finds himself in with Dark Taranza, and with his newfound marriage to Dark Zan Partizanne and their new child Lysiev now in full swing, he figures it’s time to improve. He picked up his old master’s refined swordplay, crafting two sharp blades out of the crystals used to make Royal Road’s high-security prison. This way, he could have more fighting capabilities to get the upper hand.
The Partizannes have also begun to get crafty with their own forms of technology; not only have they improved the defenses of Royal Road against intruders, but their castle is now powered by a single Grand Sun Stone located in the castle’s cellar. Its light shines bright like a star, granting light to all of Floralia when things get dark.
On some occasions, whenever he and Zan are done with their work and it gets dark outside, they like to put on puppet shows for their kids, Taranza using his puppetry skills for much less sinister purposes. Taranza does all the theatrical display whilst Zan provides narration. It’s a fun way to end the day whilst providing endearing tales that they can all enjoy.
Recently, Taranza has noticed a strange orange butterfly visiting his garden. The butterfly seems to be speaking to him, but is unsure. It kept showing up more and more, almost like it was attracted to the flowers there. He and Zan decided to accept it as a guest to the garden, thinking that this butterfly has more to come.
