Sometimes I think Dan and Phil are totally platonic besties and then other times I’m convinced they fuck on the daily. I think they do it on purpose and it’s honestly iconic.
kind of the best thing is that they are that and everything in between. you can tell they just like being around each other. they've made content together for 15 years and the large majority of it was done in the strictly platonic sense for their audience. and they were still having so much fun with it. we're in the 'we know you know' era now so we get to see flashes of different dynamics they have, but they absolutely have more we Don't get to see bc they're not for us.
they like each other. stupidly fond of each other. spending time together doesn't feel exhausting. they're best friends and each others' harshest critics while being the biggest hypeman and also safe space.
dnp's relationship with us, their audience, always has been and always will be different than any other content creators. part of it is how they accumulated it, but another part is just the massive history we have with them. they Get us. they Know us. they're silly goofy sarcastic guys who love us and hate us sometimes. theyre grateful but careful too. they like to rile us up, just like they do each other. it's a love language, teasing, and we've shown positive responses to it over the years. i like to say that my relationship with dnp is antagonistic sometimes--cause i know they're pushing my buttons on purpose. and ykw? it's fun! it's fun for us and it's fun for them because they have the control. i know anything they let out is cause they chose to let it out because they Know how we are. so yes they absolutely adore messing with us. we're a funny bunch.

Obviously I’d want them to do whatever makes them happiest but part of me really does hope that if i ever get married that my spouse takes my last name, not because it’s traditional or whatever but because i just really want to take my own name back and actually form a family that i love and that loves me in return out of it. I want to overshadow my past and reclaim my identity and share it with you, i want us to be so intricately tied together in every possible way i want to make a little family of just you and me where there’s so so so much love, just as families are supposed to be

Thinking about how much I would genuinely enjoy doodling the kid Leo spinoff comics if only I didn't have to explain every single time that they aren't canon and that them being canon is not possible- I really did want to explore Present Leo's complicated emotions and healing process but I have a problem where I get really upset when I'm not like- completely understood? Like I have gotten way better at it as I've worked on projects, but back when I was doing more with the spinoff comics I'd get so frustrated having to explain over and over that they couldn't be canon, even if I wanted them to be. And its not a matter of me SAYING they're not canon just because, I have actual plot reasons that they CANT be canon.

I think the thing that endeared me to Lefty's character the quickest was how much he cared about Franklin.
The whole first movie Franklin was ignored, abandoned, and ultimately killed. Nobody treated him like he was worth the time of day, all his "friends" were annoyed with him the whole film because he was in pain, scared, and disabled, and dared to say something about it. Tons of fans were happy when he died, and Franklin's death is sudden, swift, and the most gratuitous of the movie save for maybe the Hitchhiker. In the first movie, Franklin's life and struggles and pain never felt like it mattered.
But in the second, here comes Lefty, absolutely wrecked with grief over not only Sally's fate, but Franklin's. His whole character, his arch and his motivation, is built around the idea that Franklin did matter. That what happened to Franklin was a tragedy. That Franklin was loved, and that he was worth fighting for and worth avenging and even worth dying for. When Lefty found Franklin's body he knew him right away, in the dark, after 13 years of decomposition. And the tragedy of it all brought a fast paced wild scene to a stand still- everything slowed down to show us Lefty reacting to Franklin's death, kneeling down and telling him it was alright, that he didn't need to cry anymore, that this nightmare was over.
It's just nice to see someone value Franklin, even if it's too little too late. There was no time for it to logically happen but I wish we could've seen them interact at some point.

I want to be loved
I want to be loved. I want to be loved the way they describe it in the books I found too cheesy to read when I was younger.
I want to be hugged from behind, and feel the tiny kisses they leave in my neck. I want to be cuddled while we watch a movie, and make stupid commentary throughout, not even once wondering if I'm being annoying.
I want to know that when I feel upset because of something they did, they will try to understand and apologize, even if that thing was small or stupid or not worth their time.
I want to hold hands and feel close to them even when we're with their friends, like they are telling me that I'm still important, that they are with me no matter the circumstance.
I want to kiss them, and feel their skin close to mine, without the expectation of sex afterwards. To be able to feel closer to them without the fear of making them feel disappointed when I just want to hug, and nothing else.
I want to look into each other’s eyes, and see their love for me. I want them to be able to express with words how much I mean to them, the same way I’d know how to express my devotion for them.
I want random I love you’s, acts of kindness, I want to be remembered randomly while they were grocery shopping and receive a text with a photo of a pizza or candy with the caption “Saw your favourite and made me think of you”.
I want to be taken care of when I’m sick, I want to be put in bed, to be kissed in the forehead, and know they’ll be there when I wake up.
I want long conversations about stupid things, and even longer conversations about important stuff that need to be talked about.
I want to feel respected, loved, needed, and wanted. I want to be understood and appreciated.
I want someone to look me in the eyes, both hands on both my cheeks, and tell me I’m the most beautiful girl in the world.
I want to love, and I want to be loved.

Since i am I am a person who impulsively saves a lot of pictures and screenshot and videos and art to my phone's photo gallery (only for me to look at, not spreading it anywhere else), there is one habit that I picked up from when I used to have a lot of worse days, but now is basically a daily ritual. And it's that, before going to sleep, I will enter that photo gallery and choose one picture (or video) from it
It can be anything, depending on how I'm feeling, but it's always some image that either makes me smile or motivates / inspires me. It can be a picture of me / my family / my friends, but it can also be a meme, a screenshot of my chat with someone or a nice comment under something I made. It can be an edit of a character I obsess over, a fanart I really really love, a screenshot of a fragment from a fanfic that was so iconic I had to keep it. I promise you one time it was a drawing that was just 3 stickmen characters with 2 dialogue lines that made me laugh so hard it is still my favourite fanart ever for that fandom
And what I do is I leave the picture in full display and then I turn off the phone and go to sleep. So that the next day, after I wake up and eventually reach for my phone to unlock it, the first thing I see is this exact picture
That way, I can remember something from the day before that made me happy, was funny, moved me, inspired something. And even if the day before was bad, I am reminded that at the end of it I can always find something that somehow can make me feel nice. That there's always things and people that make me happy out there. That even the bad times can end on a smile – maybe a strained, small one, maybe a tear-filled one, maybe a nostalgic one – but a smile nonetheless
And I don't know, somehow that used to keep me going when I felt tired and unmotivated. And now it's just a happy note to start the day with to get motivation and a reminder that at the end of the day there's always something nice waiting for me
Im sharing this rly just a thank you to all the people out there who make lovely and funny and interesting things and are kind and having fun and sharing it all with the world. Something you made or said just might've one time been a picture (or video) that I had displayed on my screen one of those days that made me happy. You might have just been my smile after a tiring day, and I love you. And I love you even if it wasn't you yet
My point is. Whether it's something simple and short and you spent 2 minutes on it, or something you worked on for so long and put so much effort and thought into – your passion and kindness don't go unnoticed. Keep doing your things and sharing what makes you happy because I promise you there's people out there who are happy because of it too. Even if it's one person

V1 just admiring Gabes new fallen traits and Gabe noticing this and starts accepting his new self all tender and shit
mentions of body image issues //
YEA YEA EXACTLY - gabriel has a lot of preconceived notions to work through and sees every new trait as something loathsome, something lesser than what he once was as an archangel. he would never take back his decision, he is at least at peace with how he came to free heaven even if he has to carry the burden of taking the lives of other angels, but living on and watching his appearance change in such drastic ways is like a new grief. there's pain, there's resentment, there's anger, there's despair...there's hatred, at first unable to see himself as anything other than shameful. he knows what those in heaven would say now, he knows what regard god would hold him in, and he knows he's locked into this fate yet he gives into vain prayer out of old habits. just. let this stop. let something stay. at least let his halo crown his head even if it grows dim.
v1, on the outside of all gabe's internal drama and hidden prayer, excites at each novelty and genuinely views the new traits as fitting for gabriel in some ways. it has seen him when he lets go of his restraints and is fully unbound, what he can be without the heavy yoke forcing his head down. why wouldn't he look a little wild now? it's the same way, a rogue ai that's changed being left to its own devices and its own will, so what is gabriel now but a rogue angel who shapes himself. and it does admire those traits besides - massive horns, sets of claws, unbreakable plating??? gabriel initially thinks of this as little more than v1's natural interest in novelty and that as it inevitably fades...perhaps even v1 would think of him as less, how he's lost his radiance and can no longer look nearly so impressive in their sparring matches. it fell in love with him as gabriel, not what he is now. yet v1's fascination and excitement in the new grows into showing affection for it, how it tugs playfully on his horns, how it consistently buries itself in his fur cloak, how it sometimes refuses to allow him to trim his claws short over and over again. and, most importantly, how far from seeming disinterested in their sparring it seems overjoyed by his brutal technique, how it seems to answer him in kind or perhaps...how he reflects its wild but transcendent way of fighting. he's using his hands so much more now, his whole body becoming not just the force behind his blows but an entire weapon at his own command. and v1 could love nothing more....so gabriel himself starts to feel how he follows its lead little by little, finding thrill, finding acceptance, and finally finding happiness of his own in this new body. as an angel he had been taught how repulsive the fallen and demonic form are, but when he sees v1's admiration and enduring affection for it, he begins instead to be able to see that this is his own. this is the body for himself and it shows how he chose autonomy. and most importantly...the feelings he harbored for it are another heavenly lie

Could you maybe tell us what future Raz and Lilis relationship is like now?
*vibrating with excitement*
Putting this under a read more because it might be really long hemngh
So I'd decided to study their characters and how they interact a little more (mostly from the second game, but a little bit of the first too) and think about how their relationship would develop as they got older.
I came to the conclusion that I want to portray them as two people who have some level of affection for the other, but don't have time to focus on being sappy "boyfriend and girlfriend" because of work. The "fun" part their relationship ended waaaay back when they were 18-ish and went from Junior Agents to Official Psychonauts. It ain't exactly easy to go on dates and save the world at the same time y'know, and both of them have a lot of personal stuff going on.
Raz is almost always busy. Constantly filling out paperwork, running around in Sasha's lab, doing agent stuff, Circus stuff, the WHOLE shebang. Lili, is still trying to get over her dad's retirement, as the while thing still feels very surreal to her. Not to mention Hollis and her dad trying to push her to become the next Grand Head, much to her dismay. It's not very easy to have a social life with that much going on to be 100% honest.
Theres also taking their very different personalities into account. Lili's "Fuck around and find out" and Raz's sticking to a solid plan type of methods tend to clash quite often, and many newcomers have a hard time telling whether or not they're dating or competing with eachother.
Lili is probably the most complicated woman Raz has ever worked with, and while he finds it endearing he also finds it incredibly exhausting. Sometimes, It feels like she'll do the exact opposite of what he tells her just to get a reaction out of him, out of spite. But it's not like she can help it. She absolutely hates being told what to do, and one of her least favorite things about Raz is when he decides to become "Mr. Boss man" and order everyone around during missions. Despite all of- that- however, they do end up having very successful missions!... Most of the time.
There's also the pressure to keep up professional appearances for their fellow agents and new interns. One thing the both of them can agree on, is that they'll avoid showing any PDA in front of their coworkers. They still cringe thinking about how a little too comfortable they were as kids, and how almost EVERYONE in the Motherlobe knew about it. Luckily, most of those people are retired, quit or fired, and gives the two a better chance to be a little more professional with their relationship in front of the newcomers, because if they have to hear, "You guys are like the next Sasha and Milla!" One more time...
This isn't to say that things are always rough and gloomy for them. They still have a very special connection, and after knowing eachother for half of their lives, it's not like they're going to get rid of the other anytime soon. So might as well make the most of it, eh? She'll never admit it out loud, but there's really no other person Lili would rather be tied up and dangling over a pool of pyrokenetic sharks with than Raz (which has actually happened before btw) There's no way you won't catch them holding hands or sneaking a quick kiss at least once.
Anyways, to sum all of this shishkabable up best I can: They're WAY too close to be considered "just coworkers", but they also have way too much going on to focus on a serious relationship at this time.
Good on you if you managed to read my nonsensical ramblings all the way through! Take a prize from the prize bin you deserve it 👏 👏👏

here to say that hart should’ve died for cohle because he needed to be wiped from the earth anyway
originally they were both supposed to die in carcosa and their bodies would never be found. i like the uncharacteristically optimistic ending for rust, but it would be so fucking tragic for marty to die saving rust or dying because rust is unable to save him. not only does rust not get to die and return to everyone he ever loved, but he also gets to live with the guilt that he dragged marty back into his world only to kill him. haha yeas < sicko voice
