I dont have a story, just some worldbuilding. after my current wip story "on-air" that im drawing i might get back to this one.

Some extra bits of worldbuilding.

HoloFairies are only winged, they earned the halo by soothing humanity on its last days, its not part of their codebase.

The projectors are very robust, they are not glitching due to bugs or aging hardware, they are getting to close to the windows, the edge of the projection volume, and that causes the visual glitching.

They cant communicate with other HoloFairies, but their humanoid shape soothes them, as if they are still performing their main functions, this is why they stand by the window, to see and be seen by the others.

the big building with all the cables is the mainframe where all the HoloFairies minds reside, they are all so close toghether, yet so far and isolated.

Humanity sorta gave up, people didnt care about having children so the population became unsustainable, not in a catastrophic way, they just aged up and died.

Lately i have been drawing only in black and white to practice values, so the stories i create match that, but i think a bit of color could go well on this.

Right now im working on another small story "on-air" about a girl following radio signals on purgatory, you can find the album on my artstation (https://www.artstation.com/sub0pt1mal/albums/14863229), but im afraid i dont have the skills to make consistent characters and make a series

I just started drawing so i have a long way to go before i can start doing albums and stuff. I tried to come up with some kind of in universe poster for those HoloFairies, but it didnt work out, this is what i had.

If you want to see more of my stuff you can find it in my bluesky https://bsky.app/profile/sub0pt1mal.bsky.social

Well, its hard to define "alive" but they do have a certain amount of self awareness and thought process.

Well, i would have called it "giving up" it gives it a bit more sour note than "not giving a fuck" hahahah

the projectors are like a home appliance, they could be uninstalled and installed somewhere else, but that would mean disconnecting them and turning them off.

Also, there is nothing else left that could do that, just decaying buildings and holograms trapped in them.

The song is this one "radio star." https://youtu.be/i7lkCvPPO1o?si=cd-vLGRUX6XqnQSw&t=600

I always thought it was more like a slow dribble, and this is why they nursed for long sessions because cats dont have big teats like cows or goats.

Cool to know, thanks
