The Joys of Youth at the End of The World. a book i'm doing my best to work on, but sadly have been falling behind with.
you may know it as the story of an adventurer delving into a lost bunker to unravel its history, all while reclaiming his lost childhood.
:3 well, i have plans for Joys, you see. once its finished, and fixed up by a professional editor, the book in its entirety, as well as a nifty Lore Bible, are all going to be submitted to Creative Commons.
art belongs in the hands of the people! and i want my work to be iterated upon by others, free from the shackles of licensing, and free of any fear for law suits.
XD but while i can claim its all public domain, it aint truly official till i file the whole thing properly.
:3 until then, ive got some work to do.
but Joys is much more than the sun scorched earth of the California Wastes, more than the Endless Spring Bunker, and way more than just the story of Steve Smolder.
case and point: Luna Stardust, aka Static Snow.
one of many humans who took the extra strength drug Symbiocillin, a drug that was intended to make humans able to safely explore a post-nuclear world by allowing them to metabolize radiation.
it worked well enough, buuuuut the extra strength tablets had the side effect of users mutating further than anticipated, adapting traits of local wildlife.
so now as well as having a strong resiliance to radioactive materials, Luna has become an anthropomorphic wolf!
furries are a relatively new subspecies to Anthem (what folks call the New World, in celebration of Capitalism's sweet demise), only coming to exist after the fall of the Commonwealth and the nuking of the world. but they're generally accepted by most, and fully compatible with human mating.
Luna is a traveling bard. a descendant of the Dead Mall Society.
the Dead Mall Society started as a set of college students in the Old World, who wanted to fund their own hangout spot / place to live. bunkers were all the rage, but good quality ones tended to be pricey.
the sollution? making a deal with the Commonwealth, to make this bunker one massive tourist trap Underground Mall. long as they packed the place with shops fulla movies, merchendice, army surplus, and had tvs playing commercials for all the latest brands, they'd get to live here and work at their own pace for a modest income.
when the world fell to ruin, this Mall ended up fulfilling its secondary function, protecting countless lives from nuclear fallout.
with nothing else to do while the rads lower to acceptable levels, the founders, and their new friends, started exploring their creative sides. learning the instruments of the music shops, studying the music of the Old World, and making home movies with the cutting edge cameras of the day.
as time went on, boredom and stagnation hit. there's only so much time you can spend making your own work based on the old greats.
lucky for them, this place had a treasure trove of blank neo-cassettes (an 80s retro revival lead to new innovations for old tech), and countless recordings of movies, commercials, and music videos.
thus, a new remix culture was born. soon the Mallgoers were making copies of Oldworld Kitsch and transforming it in any way they pleased. sometimes to improve it, sometimes to critique, and sometimes just cuz its funny.
what started as a music club became a band. that band became a community. that community became a way of life. and that way of life formed the greatest faction of artists Anthem had ever seen.
they are the Dead Mall Society. a modern day Cult of Dionysus, living life in ferverous dedication to artistic expression.
Luna was born and raised in the Dead Mall itself, but has long since become a wanderer of Anthem, seeking new inspiration for her music.
she now allies with the DMS, as well as Rose Garden (a leftist humanitarian faction descended from an Old World Hippie Commune.) and the Children of Opening Night (sometimes called the Church of Opening Night, a cult of video preservationists who worship cinema, now close friends and partners of the Dead Mall Society.)
here we see her in what she considers casual attire. her favorite Band T for the Dead Mall Society, a customized vest to show her Punk sensibilities, a custom skirt to match, and some lovely fishnet sleeves.
she retains the Trans Pride bow all Lunas do, and is seen here carrying her Strutman (a neo-cassette player made by the Old World tech company Olympia.) which she has lovingly taped over with her own infantile renaming Waddlebab, and affixed a wireless reciever to.
this reciever connects to her custom earphones, made from scrap electronics. because after all, Old World headphones werent designed with Furries in mind! and no shoes, because she's enjoying the cool tiled floors of the Dead Mall.
affixed to her skirt are several chains, some safety pins to further hint to her babyish sensibilities, and a nifty charm whos meaning has since been changed by the Children of Opening Night. "See You ON" or "See You Opening Night!" these days Opening Night is said to be the day society will return to a sense of normalcy, and humans will be able to enjoy movies in peace.
and lastly, the letters ASAB, "All Soldiers Are Bastards", in response to the Soldiers of Fortune, the Joys world's equivalent to cops. a faction that existed prominantly in the Old World, and remain to this day in Anthem. they SAY they're neutral and only assist those who can afford them, but in truth they were the secret hand of the government, and now seek to subjigate the world of Anthem and restore Old World Capitalistic Hierarchies.
she may not be a main character in Joys itself, but she does indeed live here!
:3 expect more lovely art of this version of Luna
