I Finally Drew Something In My Sketchbook!!!

Okay I want more thoughts on the music played in the QSMP teaser.

The first song played is Pachelbel's Canon (Canon in D, P 37). Doesn't seem to have much of a story to it? But I think the main reason it was used is that it's a popular song played at weddings and, the more importantly, funerals.

The second song is from Mozart's Requiem Mass- Lacrimosa. It was written not long before Mozart died, and it literally translates from Latin as "Weeping" or "Tearful". Requiem Mass is just a big piece about death and grief. It's just another funeral song.

SOOOO what does that mean?? Is this quackity's funeral, the federation's, or the island's?? I have so many thoughts that I don't know how to put into words, but if you have ideas, that would be awesome.

oooooh that definitely fits with the whole creepy vibe that's going on in the video

Weeping, tearful and funeral...

To be honest, not really an idea of what to make of that. The only connection I could draw would be the poem which is spoken, which goes on and on and on about how that 'creature' is eating it's own heart and destroying itself.

The funeral part also stands in direct contrast to the Morse, which says things like 'I'm coming back' and the flashing text which literally says 'not over.' To lean completely out of the window, I would say that... the easily visible surrenders being alone, being scared and also maybe that the Federation is no longer (the Federation buildings are completely empty), but the stuff beneath the surface clearly says that someone is planning a comeback.

That way, the music fits with the whole dying, self-destruction theme which is shown through the stuff you can easily see without decrypting morse and stuf. Maybe someone destroyed themselves and now it's their funeral, but actually they're coming back. But who? The players, the Federation? I don't know, but maybe we'll see in the future

Mammals both produce milk and have hair. Ergo, a coconut is a mammal.

in the minecraft world do youthink people would use "they dug straight down" as code for someone dying

The new QSMP teaser - deep dive (morse code!!!!)

This is a (still relatively short) deep dive into all most of the hidden messages in the new teaser Quackity posted in which we are going BACK TO THE ISLAND!

If you want a more detailed explanation of how I figured out the morse code, check out my other post!

Index: - Flashing text on the screen - The music - The spoken words (poem) - The light - The MORSE CODEEE

Flashing text

The flashing text which could be seen on the screen reads:

Return safe your journey is high not over

I thought at first it would be 'your journey is nigh,' as in close in time, BUT it actually does say high. Which is weird.

Maybe as in plane or wall?

The music

I don't know, heard it before, something classic. I doubt it has a deeper meaning though.

The spoken text

During the later part of the video, a presumably artifical voice reads a quite odd... collection of words. First, @mossybee-exe and I made some guesses about the words, since not all of them can be heard clearly, which together form:

In the desert, I saw a creature [unintelligable] whom, squatting on the ground, held his heart in his hands and ate of it. I said, 'is it good, friend?' 'It is bitter (than that?),' he answered, 'but I like it -- Interval where the texts lay over and you can't really understand SHIT -- (house and death??) but I like it because it is bitter and because it is my heart.'

NOW

I took this and put it into a duckduckgo search because I was already suspecting that it was a poem. And I was right.

In the Desert By Stephen Crane

In the desert I saw a creature, naked, bestial, Who, squatting upon the ground, Held his heart in his hands, And ate of it. I said, “Is it good, friend?” “It is bitter—bitter,” he answered;

“But I like it “Because it is bitter, “And because it is my heart.”

In the Desert

In the desert I saw a creature, naked, bestial, Who, squatting upon the ground, Held his heart in his hands, And ate of it. I said, “Is it

I also found an interpretation of it (https://poemanalysis.com/stephen-crane/in-the-desert/), though I don't really see how it could be connected to anything else yet. Does match the whole creepy vibe of it though.

The light

I thought that it could be morse code, but... I don't know. The blinking seems very erractic, but I also can't put a finger on what it could mean.

The Morse Code

The part I spent the longest on, but also my absolute favourite.

If you want to read how I decoded it in a LOT more detail, I'll put up another post on my blog! Check it out if you like that stuff :D

The morse code decoded is:

I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry please help, help, help SOS SOS SOS It's not real, it's not possible to have this You are meant for this You are meant for this You are meant [to] return to your (ORIEFIRLGFBEYAMMD or ORIFISLGFBEYAMMD (yes no idea either)) That wall, it is cursed It is sacred I'm coming bac[k].

brackets [ ] where, logically, there should be something but isn't.

ANDDD this is it, thank you for reading! <3

❝ You’ll be positively the most fearsome pirates to sail the Spanish Main. ❞

❝ That’s what a ship is, you know. Not just a keel and a hull and a deck and sails. That’s what a ship need … but what a ship is — what the Black Pearl really is — is freedom. ❞

❝ That’s why he sent off a piece of the treasure — to you, as it were: so it would never be recovered, and so cursed we’d remain. ❞

❝ I have a plan. If it succeeds, then any battle will be decidedly brief … and one-sided. ❞

❝ What are you doing? You’ve burned our food, the shade — the rum! ❞

❝ And as for how we got off the island… ah, that’s a grand adventure, but now is not the time to talk about it. ❞

❝ And though I do say so with regret, the law is clear. The penalty for piracy is death by hanging. ❞

❝ They’ve escaped! There was no damage to the cell… they must have been set free. ❞

❝ Captain [Name] – the Black Pearl is yours. ❞

Young Viktor (still haven't chosen a last name)

this is the finished piece for my jayvik arcane on ice au and the whole vibe of the piece was inspired by middfoxx off of twitter

technically these pieces of viktor take place before the au happens but I thought it would be fun to draw him being all elegant

Arcane! on ice AU: (First/Viktor's character sheet)

ok I've got thoughts about this

I read somewhere that the Hogwarts house isn't what you are, but what you would like to be (example Neville, wasn't brave at all but eventually became that since it was his dream). So, the question is, while she is definitely ambitious and curious, if she'd rather be successful (in her case, getting rid of the ancient magic) or knowledgeable. She loves learning about cultures and the magical world, but her ancient magic is always gonna be a priority.

So... Slytherin?

Hey so you seem to have ten thousand OCs and I need to ask someone this so might as well ask the expert:

My OC Leandra's ancient magic is different. If she doesn't use it up, it causes a huge abrupt burst and endangers the people around her. Long story short, she HATES it and her main goal is to get rid of it.

Which house would she be in? I'd say it's between Slytherin and Ravenclaw. Slytherin because she's basically willing to do anything to reach her goal of getting rid of her magic, Ravenclaw because she's also curious and reads for fun and wants to know all about the magical world (one of the motives being that she can get rid of her magic)

What do you think? :D

Hello! Sorry for the late reply—I had to really think about it pretty much all day to figure out which house Leandra should be in, but I finally decided. I think the best house for her is Slytherin because she truly has all the qualities that fit that house.

What really surprised me is that she doesn’t want her Ancient Magic. All of my MCs actually do want to embrace their Ancient Magic, but I completely understand why Leandra doesn’t. I actually like that about her—it’s powerful character depth.

I really like the way you’ve written it too, how she doesn’t use her Ancient Magic but it can still burst out of her, especially when she’s overwhelmed—and that can hurt the people around her. That makes it even more understandable why she wants to get rid of it. It’s actually a good thing that she’s so aware and doesn’t want to harm anyone. So yeah, I definitely see why she wants to be free of it.

I hope this helps you and oh my gosh you called me an expert. (Joking) I’m actually shocked. I’m not really an expert but I try my best but thank you for calling me an expert but yeah I really hope this solves it and if it doesn’t, I’m very sorry. 😰
