yes thank god exactly

gillion didnt lose memories, he had the distress attached to the memory of the tree removed, and his mind was subtly altered to make him want to follow orders more. id have to go back and relisten to get the exact wording, but gillion still has his memory of the true prophecy, he's just more inclined to be obedient, which will cause its own set of problems but we'll cross that bridge when we come to it

I've seen a few people mixing this up so I thought I'd help clarify.

Gillion did not lose memories when doppelgilly was made.

The reason why "Gillion" woke up from the procedure having forgotten something important, is because he wasn't Gillion, he was doppelgilly.

Doppelgilly wasn't made with all of Gillion's memories, he said it himself, so don't worry too much about Gillion potentially regressing in character development, it was his clone that was missing memories.

HAVE YOU SEEN THEM?

then please let me know, I miss them 👉👈

here are clean versions of the wanted posters!!!

#WHERE ARE THEY #COME BACK #though chip's 'dead or alive' bit is funny to me considering. well. everything about him right now #some bounty hunter calling in to report theyve captured captain chip and are coming to collect the bounty #and the naval officer filling out the paperwork on the other end of the line asks 'and is he dead or alive?' #and the bounty hunter just looks at chip who is giving the smuggest shit eating grin and they just go 'uh. yes?' #ooh shiny #dragons chatting

the navy officer the only one left standing in the carnage, in a room full of the people who forced them to contribute to this blasphemous act and who now lay in various states of death, and watching this marred god creep towards them, slowly, chittering with a deep soul-full rumble, and gently pressing its face into the hands of the only thing to respect it, to worship it, to show it kindness. and the navy officer gently stroking its face while they weep for what they have done

Shoutout to this tumblr post (brought to me via Pinterest) that inspired the following:

I need a Navy officer to have looked the dead Leviathan in its face and said “I’m sorry.” I need a Navy officer who repeatedly expresses their doubts / concerns on the project, but their skillset is too valuable for anyone to get rid of them/the problem. I need a Navy officer (metaphorically? Then later *literally?*) tied to their work on the Dead Leviathan project, and accepting their fate as doomed by what will surely be a vengeful god. I need a Navy officer that goes in and worships the leviathan’s remnants, recognizing it for the divinity it is. I need a Navy officer watching this divine being be commanded, and wondering how long it will stay subdued. I need a Navy officer begging and pleading to be released from this sin, and when the Dead Leviathan wakes is the only one to remain untouched. I need a Navy officer wishing they had been touched by a god, for surely experiencing its wrath would be better than the silence that is left behind. I need the struggle of man when faced with divine creation that mortal hands have made flawed, knowing they contributed to marring a holy thing.

The “oh I could definitely write this fanfic in under 5000 words and it really wouldn’t take me that long” voice in your head is actually the devil speaking

Poll for writers and artists

Whether you write fanfic or original works or paint/draw, be it fan art or original work or whatever else - I have to know, because I have a feeling this is going to be very decisive:

Please reblog for sample size!

i am thinking about if,, if chip loses himself completely,, gillion doing another oath of vengeance type thing where his grief manifests as rage

except the problem is Who does he exact revenge on? they've already killed the person who killed chip, and his loss of himself has no one to blame,, so gillion has nowhere to direct the rage, no direction, no purpose,, and the grief consumes him.

he becomes feral, inconsolable, and furious. he becomes what he thinks he should have been, what he believes would have saved chip if he hadn't been so selfish - he becomes little more than a weapon to direct. you point, his teeth and claws and blade follow.

there is not much of gillion left, just the Champion, because the Champion wouldn't have let chip die, wouldn't have let him be lost, would have gotten there faster, would have been better.

so maybe, oath of vengeance is a bit of a misnomer. maybe it would be better to say he swore an oath of atonement.

(sometimes, when the battle is over, and all is quiet, you can see gillion slip out just a little bit. if its late at night, and you listen real close, you can just make out quiet sobbing from the captains quarters)

As a fic writer, i need every reader to know that:

I don’t care if your comment is coherent. I know what you mean and i love you

I don’t care if you ramble. I read every word and i love you

I don’t care if you leave a comment on a fic from four years ago or leave comments/kudos on like ten of my fics in one go. This isn’t IG, pls stalk my AO3. I love you

I don’t care if you mention the same thing in your comment that four other people have already mentioned. It’s actually really useful to know what resonated with people and I love everyone who takes the time to tell me they liked a particular turn of phrase

I don’t mind if your comment is super long or just a couple of sentences, i love them all

I love you
