i love how chat was yelling at avnj to click the white text but he was so enamored with the story he didnt notice. honestly we should do another stream of him rewatching the game just to click on what he was missing.
I can see where the baby's trauma was coming from. Seeing the apex predator of your planet's oceans follow you for days on end, and being something basically bigger than your parents also move faster than them *by an order of magnitudes,* and then instantly kill one of your own before you even finished blinking; that would mess with even unintelligent creatures, and Brillos seem to have intelligence on par with humanity.
Eyyyy Edit: Some of the chat stuff is the funniest stuff that I've ever seen "I'd be the funniest whale ever" "If I was a brillo I'd put a large artillery piece on my forehead." Also the brillo possibly becoming a kindly murder whale is fun, especially if he can turn his mentor good again. PIKILI FOREVERRRR
Haha three Scrimshaw videos on your channel, I feel spoiled😅Many thanks for sharing my VN with your audience! It is a niche project and finding interested readers has always been tricky, to put it mildly.
I was wondering when you would find avnj’s videos of your VN! I love what you have created so much, it deserves all the support!! You say you feel spoiled, but if anything, we don’t spoil you enough💙❤️💙
Your project is like all my favorite topics rolled into a ball with the most stunning visuals to boot. It reminds me of when I was little and watching the Studio Ghibli movie Ponyo with an equal mixture of awe, horror and curiosity. You are an inspiration. I’m also going into college literally tomorrow, I often related to the young Brillo, the overwhelming pressure to do something different but the fear of failure overwhelming it. Being overwhelmed by options. I couldn’t have found this at a better time, I can’t wait for the next part, though 20 years is a long time for impatient humans to wait lol.
0:30 Oh we have WAYY more than just mites on our eyelashes. People don't realize but their entire bodies are basically gigantic ecosystems filled with all sorts of unique species. Our skin is filled with friendly bacteria that can actually help against invasors. Not to mention the extremely complex gut microbiome that we still don't fully understand. There are millions of tiny animals crawling all around your body at all times, you can never escape them :)
This game reminds me of the online field art lectures I tune into about the salish sea, the first half is always about ecology and the second half is us going over our observations and anatomy drawings. It's like a fantastical version of it though, really enjoyable.
ok but the grass carp (Ctenopharyngodon idella) is a species of large herbivorous freshwater fish in the family Cyprinidae, native to the Pacific Far East, with a native range stretching from northern Vietnam to the Amur River on the Sino-Russian border. This Asian carp is the only species of the genus Ctenopharyngodon. Grass carp are resident fish of large turbid rivers and associated floodplain lakes/wetlands with a wide range of temperature tolerance, and spawn at temperatures of 20 to 30 °C (68 to 86 °F). It is cultivated as a food fish in China for centuries, but was introduced in Europe and the United States for aquatic weed control, becoming the fish species with the largest reported farmed production globally, over five million tonnes per year. Grass carp have elongated, chubby, torpedo-shaped body forms. The terminal mouth is slightly oblique with non-fleshy, firm lips, and no barbels. The complete lateral line contains 40 to 42 scales. Broad, ridged pharyngeal teeth are arranged in a "2, 4-4, 2" formula. The dorsal fin has eight to 10 soft rays, and the anal fin is set closer to the tail than most cyprinids. Body color is dark olive, shading to brownish-yellow on the sides, with a white belly and large, slightly outlined scales. Grass carp grow very rapidly. Young fish stocked in the spring at 20 cm (7.9 in) will reach over 45 cm (18 in) by fall. The typical length is about 60-100 cm (23.5-39.5 in). The maximum length is 2.0 m (6.6 ft) and they grow to 45 kg (99 lb).
I hope the author does the next one on the Penumbra shark or one of the creatures that live on whales like that long-lived octopus or the SeaBun...like yeah we've heard a bit about them but it was in context of the whales and I'd love to see more detailed information about them. are they solitary(and in case with the whale companions making an excepction for the whale bc they treat them as more of a 'living space') and if they live in groups are their societies as smart and sophisticated as whales are? I mean Brillos's seem to be pretty high functioning if CONCEPT OF EXILE FOR SOCIALLY UNACCEPTABLE BEHAVIOUR EXISTS. It's not a territorial thing where some young go on to make their own families/packs/herds whatever. This whale got thrown out because he apparently KILLED ONE OF HIS OWN. It sounds a bit like there's some sort of law.
if he had clicked on the indicators you would have learned more about the seabun. it's fake, they just added it because it's a popular non-cryptid mascot.
The penumbra shark is a ridiculously cool design for a hypothetical apex predator. The speed of a sailfish, the jaws of a large shark, the reflexes of a cat, and the endurance of many of the world's premiere apex predators. And potentially the intelligence of a whale.
I mean I can see the exile as more of a functional thing, where other whales simply recognized that one brillo is a killer and ostracized him, forcing him to abandon life in the more populated areas. But the brillos do overall seem extremely sophisticated; I don’t know how much of that is the story’s anthropomorphism
@@BryanLu0 The first reasearchers blamed accidents like machines not working, not finging tools etc to a mysterious sea bunny stealing them and it was an inside joke amongst them. Thus it became mascot. In reality though, sea bunnies do exist on our Earth, its a nickname for a Nudibranch species. Thy are quite adorable!
I'm sort of going through a shitty situation as well (I know you didn't ask so I'm sorry!) So I understand 😅 I really hope things better soon for you ❤
@@sacredyveltal4688 It's aight we got our fav fish twink out here to keep us entertained in these trying times 🤝 Hope stuff gets better with you soon too!
probably the various other creepy crawlies we've seen on other brillos, like the weaverlobe. and with the plant based ones, it seems they have a degree of control over the plants they host, so they could probably reach out a small root system to attach
What kind of animal would you bond with if you were a Brillo? Personally, if I were a Brillo I’d like to do something like 8:50. Similar types of plants, but layered a lot. That way octopi and octopi eggs (hopefully Vorpex Octopi since I like them) can cling on and hide. Most of the time they would be hiding in the foliage, but when on the hunt they would form a net around me to camouflage our approach. They would also be a swarm of mini missiles that entangle prey to slow them down, think on their own to improve the hunt, and mimic predators on their own to shepherd whatever were hunting.
Once again i yell. You are missing content! Scrimshaw has extra pages when you click THE HIGHLIGHTED SUBTITLES there are moutains of extra explanations and world facts.
@@kailord952 It's a reference to a TikTok video that was popular at the time. A kid is going on about a guy having a death wish for doing a dangerous jump remarking "Doesn't he have a wife and kids at home??" only for the jumper to open up his parachute and it's rainbow flag colors causing him to quickly correct himself to "Doesn't he have a husband and kids at home??"
