(Also Boochi is young and male, a Nega-Boochi should be old and female) By that logic, nega-boochi should be a large, lovable grandmother, who bakes cookies for everyone and doesn't wish anyone any ill at all. Also, she should be an Ogrin or Bori. Achem... Sorry about that. I don't really care between the two, but if it's male, my vote goes to the cane being the gun. If it's female, I want her to have a walker that's the gun. And I'm not talking about a regular gun. No. This walker is like an artillery weapon. That aside, I think I know what I'm doing (if I can muster up the drawing ability). A pet runs into anti-boochi (whatever he/she may be). Laughing evilly, anti-boochi pulls out a watch, and says that his/her victim is becoming elderly. Just... give it some time. (And perhaps a bonus wherein Boochi laments that he had to put some effort into his weapon). I wonder if there's any way I could expand that into a short story... Oh goodness, that's hilarious XD And again, I'm for either male or female. Should we make another poll (is that possible?)? And at this point can we make the assumption that antiBoochi is the joke we're going with, considering it's the focus of the thread and the most votes in the poll?

Okay. I've figured out how to turn mine into a short story, about a sort of rivalry between Boochi and Anti-boochi, with all sorts of wacky stuff going on. Anyone mind if I start writing now? I can change the names and pronouns later when we get more stuff sorted out.

Yanno, I hate to sound impatient (which is to say that I am impatient, I just don't like sounding like it xD) but April Fool's Day is three weeks away. Three weeks to a month is the natural time to get a piece into the NT and anything that wants to get in with a shorter waiting time is imposing on Droplet's courtesy. Meaning that the longer we take to flesh out details and agree on them, the more we'll look mighty rude for the assumption that no matter how late we are, Droplet will cut us slack and let the prank in. Which to me feels uncomfortably like the abuse of this forum's position and past stance with TNT. I'd rather not take it for granted. Taking that into account, I made a concept-art sort of preliminary doodle based on as many suggestions as I could gather from this thread. How's that look? For a central concept that people can stick to for the sake of consistency in the prank, I mean.

Cool art ^^ And I think, the current voiced opinions give female as gender a lead, so for time's sake I suggest we stick with female and simply call her Grandma Boochi.... It would be an Interview:
Featuring an inquisitive reporter, who did some research and found out that Boochi has appeared in baby form ever since the beginning of the world, but with everyone aging, it seems highly suspicious. So he tracks down Grandma Boochi, who in the course of the interview reveals that causing Random Painting Events is a family tradition, that in her childhood she was the baby-painting boochi, but that since then she has passed on the job to her great-grand son. Then the reporter asks what Boochi-family members do when they retire from painting, at which grandma says, that they never retire... That colour drench RE and Invisible RE are also done by Boochi members, but she corrects the reporter, when he assumes that red and blue turning REs are also Boochi-made. And eventually the reporter is stupid enough to ask grandma, what her paint job is now, at which point she turns him elderly.

I like the shawl, but what's she holding in her right hand?

A glass with her dentures in it.

In theory, a glass with dentures, but turns out it's really hard to draw so that it'd actually be visible. If you have a flipper, your only way of holding a glass of water is by sort of wrapping the flipper around it.
So Gramma Boochi's modus operandi would be either by zapping your pet with the walker (turns it elderly) or pelting them with dentures (which does nothing)?
...presumably she has those dentures on a string xP And I like that colored sketch, was having trouble figuring out what color she'd be.

Is the walker going to be plain white, too? It makes sense that she'd have a less conspicuous zapping mechanism than her grandchild, still, but I'm still wondering.

Maybe the walker can be like this one: The name is MME10-S5b: Walking Frame

We're running out of time, so I went ahead and submitted mine. I used the walker because I didn't know how I'd make the dentures recognizable.

I'm suddenly inspired and have started writing, in hopes of having it done pretty quick. If Chao and Yoyti don't mind me borrowing from some of their ideas, I'd like to use a few of the same details they established, such as her being the Great-Grandma of Boochi, and having once been the baby turning Boochi herself, but along with Yoyti's antagonistic nature between them (Boochi not being happy that Grandma is suddenly getting in on the RE action too.)
Mine will be a short story in my MoaNTR series.

(Yes, there will be math jokes. My current title is a combination math/Disney pun )
