KIM KITSURAGI - “Is that. My kineema.”

COMPOSURE [Medium: Success] - Something in him is about to break, *big time*.

EMPATHY - And it’s not going to be pretty, do something!

- DRAMA [Formidable] - Everything is fine!

- “Sure is.”

DRAMA [Formidable: Failure] - Surely he’s aware that he’s not the *only* person in the world who owns a Kineema?

YOU - “Is it really *yours*? I mean, plenty of people have their own Kineemas, right? Like working men, government offices, uh, firefighters I guess, maybe even animal control people? Exactly! A million different people who could’ve driven it into the uh…”

DRAMA - Pause, my liege! Ixnay on the Ineemakay!

YOU - “It could even be our *mysterious* joyrider!”

KIM KITSURAGI - Your frenzied babbling falls deaf to the lieutenant's ears. Instead, he approaches the broken vehicle, sunken in the ice. He moves with a caution and gentleness you haven’t seen him display before.

INLAND EMPIRE - It must be cold and lonely down there, in the icy water. Maybe he could sense its sorrow, calling to him…

PERCEPTION (SIGHT) [Easy: Success] - His hands, which are always stiffly placed behind his back, are trembling.

ENDURANCE - This is the shuffle of a tired, tired man.

HALF LIGHT - He’s going to do something drastic because of you. Oh god, terrible! You’re a terrible liar! You can’t look at this, you just can’t!

VOLITION [Formidable: Success] - It's not *you* who drove his kineema into the sea. You have plenty of faults, but this one is decidedly not yours.

KIM KITSURAGI - He kneels down with his head bowed, casting his face in shadow. He plants a hand on the ice to stabilize himself, squinting to get a better view of the motor carriage. “Detective, it says ‘57’ on it.”

YOU - Sweat drips down your brow, and you feel a terrible headache coming. “Maybe our joyrider has an affinity for that number?”

LOGIC - He's not stupid, he knows that it's not that.

KIM KITSURAGI - “57.”

YOU - “What about 57?”, you brace yourself.

KIM KITSURAGI - “Precinct 57.”

YOU - You wince. “Kim, look-”

KIM KITSURAGI - “When I woke up in the Whirling-in-Rags with no memory of what happened during the days before, I've taken note that something of mine has gone missing.” He grits his teeth. "A very. Important. Something."

He runs his hands over his face, messing his already unkempt hair in the process. Regret creeps up on his features. “God. Fuck. They’re going to fire me over this, they’re not going to hear me out.”

EMPATHY - Desperation settles in the lieutenant's tone. Sadly, you find yourself in agreement, even if you don’t want it to be the truth.

YOU - “People are more valuable than machines, Kim.”

KIM KITSURAGI - “Not people like me.” He rasps.

YOU - “…”

KIM KITSURAGI - Before you can say anything more, you fail to notice the lieutenant carefully walking onto the edge of the ice. He looks over the frigid water, a dizzying blue that mirrors and distorts his exhausted face back to him.

YOU - “Kim?”

KIM KITSURAGI - Seconds pass as he looks to be contemplating something. Out of nowhere, he casually takes another step where the ice ends and the sea begins. It happens all too quick for the lieutenant to even voice a call for help— if he even wanted to — his body plunging into the cold water before your eyes.

YOU - “KIM!!!!”

uhhh bonus stuff? sorry i have swap au brainworms pfttt

(im not sure what skills kim has at the moment so rn he only has narration as his inner monologue ok whoops, i would like to keep harry as the guy who thinks in dialogue trees so im still figuring it out pfttt)

also, this was done bc i wanted to expand on these old scribbles of mine, just like an idea, i just think that he'd be having an even worse time wheezes

#disco elysium #kim kitsuragi #harry du bois #den's disco swap #disco elysium role swap #HI nobody look at the fact that. i am a novice writer at best DFGHJFGH #i had idea for some comic dialogue but it ended up being this instead whoops. i mean i could still draw this as a comic #anyways. i was like. trying to reverse engineer my idea of how kim can change into his bomber jacket instead of his uniform. #which. i dont think you can do with just simple convincing bc that thing is fused to him in spirit so there has to be like a good reason wh #oh it gets ruined! how? it gets like wet or smth! how'd that happened? he threw himself into the sea #also isnt it fitting that my memory problems is making me not remember the things that happen in disco elysium very well wheezes #so whoops if the characterization is a lil off lmaoooooo #but i have been trying to figure out how i want harry to be in this swap au #i dont think he's as well as he wants you to believe he is. and just the image of him pushing this 'youre allowed to be in denial about + #this' to kim about the kineema was so vivid in my head and idk if that tracks but hell. its in there now dfghdjfg #starry don't look #sunnysidedraws #sunnysidedisco

[journey-to-the-attic]

the rest of the cast got their new song covers, so i wanted to try putting the others in a band :>

i did want to make it look a bit like an album cover but i have no idea how those are designed so eh?? i also couldn't think of any band or album/song names so. if anyone has any ideas...

#art #obey me #obey me raphael #jtta ik #obey me mephistopheles #obey me thirteen #from left to right they are: lead singer/rhythm guitar - drummer - lead guitar - bass #tbh any of them could've taken any role but bassist girl thirteen spoke to me and raph canonically sings well so that felt like it fit #i did consider ik as lead but she'd absolutely shred on the drums. she has so much pent-up rage to let out... #in context this is for a music festival diavolo's putting on but it'd be a fun au as well #i like to think thirteen is the overwhelming favourite of all the fangirls #also in terms of band name... #i was thinking something based on the fact that there's one of each species (human/demon/angel/reaper) but what word can i use for that #jo has suggested something involving the numbers 3 and 4 for 3 realms and 4 members #3.4HZ Harmony was the best we could come up but it feels like there should be a sorta other-world element to it #then again if it's an au then i guess they'd all be humans anyway #ah whatever #life and work related obligations have been growing so naturally i've been starting a bunch of creative endeavours to try to get away from #is this a long term good thing for future career prospects? probably not. but i'd rather be happy

#succession #web weave #kendall roy #it's about the not knowing who you are once you stop filling that role you thought you were destined to fill #it's about trying so hard to be the perfect son you lose yourself in the process #it's about always defining yourself through what everyone else tells you you are. and only through that #it's ALSO about how kendall literally sounds like ken doll but maybe that's just me #and it's just interesting to me how this is a big theme in the show🔝 despite him consistently being the most self-aware out of #everyone in his whole family. or maybe precisely BECAUSE of that #wait full disclaimer.

um. sir

(feat. an unfinished/rushed narinder design from me because i. look i needed to express the. how i felt seeing. his traits)

i beg your. pardon these traits are random Right like outside of the immortal one Surely he is. like. that's not. Sir. You're the former god of Death , that's not quite your. Hm. Not your usual, like.Um. Domain.

Um. Well. Hm! Well. Perhaps he is looking for new experiences. Given. Well that was what got him locked up to begin with right? #Seeking to change? despite his role? #so like. I guess it'd.

I am *looking* at that lawlu fae au, yell about it, please. I'd love to hear moar xd

YESS TYSM FOR ASKING!!! sorry for the late response, busy irl time for a little, BUT! i have been thinking about lawlu a lot recently (i’m just about done with watching through dressrosa, so, well, you get it), and i always think fae rules make for a fascinating story, so…

namely, this train of thought was inspired by this tumblr post which i think. encapsulates the lawlu dynamic pretty well. i mean, it’s not like luffy is trying to be owned by someone, but good luck getting any sort of handle on that guy even if he’s yours by the letter of the law. and traffy already has a few markers of being a good fae in canon (tricky as hell, hiding his real name, refusing to eat certain foods lol), so it fits!

and it’s like. imagine. you’re a fae. you know how the world works for you. there’s unspoken rules and unspoken conventions and unspoken hatred coursing through your blood. there’s someone you want to tear down from his post, but it’s not easy, not with the faerie court dynamics involved. you’ve been planning this for a long, long time. it may make you want to scream, but at least the schemes you lay out make sense.

and then, right. and then this human wanders into your domain, and eats your food, and shrugs when you tell him this means he cannot leave. and sure, he’s here now, it’s – fine, whatever, as long as he doesn’t get underfoot, so you leave him to his own devices and look away.

except, right.

except you find out very quickly that he gets underfoot.

a lot. in every way you can imagine, and some ways you can’t possibly. you’ve been raised to see humans as – not inferior, maybe, but certainly easy enough to control – but now you’re suddenly forced to confront the fact that this human had – just – not been raised with the same rules that you have ingrained into your very existence. he says he’s free, and that makes no sense, because you technically own him, what freedom is there in belonging to someone like you, but he– he doesn’t live by your standards. he doesn’t do what you ask. he breaks every rule, and stomps past every line you draw, and makes no sense, and–

and. so.

he had just not been raised with the same rules that all of your kind have ingrained into their very existence, you realise, suddenly. you’re pretty sure that doflamingo knows all about your tricks, and schemes, and traps.

you’re pretty sure, however, that doflamingo is not expecting a punch to the face.

and so, maybe having a human on your side isn’t that bad after all.

#BDHDKAKSLS I HOPE THIS MAKES SENSE #this is not a well planned out story yet but i just. have many thoughts about them #lawlu #lulaw #one piece #trafalgar d water law #trafalgar law #monkey d luffy #luffy #i have also considered the opposite role assignment actually!! #trafalgar law has a Horrible Terrible No Good Very Bad Day and if the fae take him how much worse can it really get #‘can i have your name’ the fae asks. ‘trafalgar d. water law’ says trafalgar d. water law who is just so incredibly tired. #you know those sorts of vibes #but luffy doesnt reallyyy fit the traditional fae vibe so i thought of the fae law human luffy scenario more……. FOR NOW! #anyway please ask me more about this i have feelings(tm)

[thatswhatsushesaid]

we need a fandom palette cleanser to follow up from all the salt, so

cast your favourite mdzs character(s) as any role (support or otherwise) in a different book/tv show/video game/musical/whatever, and ramble about why you picked that show et al. for them in the tags

#i have already rambled about why jgy as an avatar of the eye in the magnus archives is my favourite self indulgent AU #but if i had to actually slot him into a narrative role in the show that gets a bit trickier #i do think he would make an incredible Archivist but he is also #as elias bouchard was so fond of saying #the ‘beating heart’ of the narrative; if you remove jgy from the story…. well. there is no story! #but there is a serious class divide between jon and elias/jonah and i think the same would apply here #jgy as archivist makes more contextual sense even if jgy as the eye’s pupil seems fitting for his narrative role in mdzs #i’m going to end up actually writing a mdzs/tma fusion AU at this rate #mdzs #he did crimes??? good for him 😌

the answer to the question of "is vector espio and charmys dad or older brother" is that hes basically charmys dad but to espio he is a secret third thing. some kind of in between of the two options. you cant really fit their relationship into one of the traditional family role boxes but theyre family and thats all that matters. btw.

#i love dad vector and i do think he tries to play a fatherly role to both of them since hes the only adult around #20 year old college dropout trying so hard to be a cool dad to a 16 year old and a 6 year old who are also technically his coworkers #well as far as other adults who can be parental figures go theres vanilla i guess but we dont really see her very often do we #actually has she even interacted with team chaotix outside of sonic x and that one issue of idw sonic. #ok whatever ANYWAYS. considering vector and espio are a lot closer in age than vector and charmy #i think they can be more like siblings sometimes. but other times theyre more like parent and child. #again theyre a secret third thing like i said. they dont strictly fit one label or the other

An underrated aspect of drawing 919 I forgot to mention in my last post: have you ever wondered why I have a tendency sometimes to draw the Wunsoc sweaters as somewhat large and baggy? I think it’s fun to imagine that they might grow into them, just as they’ll “grow into” their role in the Society :)

#this but also just to give myself a reason to draw baggier clothes which more used to and also just more interesting lol #nevermoor #nevermoor headcanons #you’ll see it more on mog and other shorter members of 919 #other characters like cadence and hawthorne not so much #both bc they’re taller lol but also I feel like they’re more secure in / abt their place and role in wunsoc / nevermoor compared to others #like they’re both quite confident when it comes to their knacks and stuff #I think that in wundersmith mog mentions the uniform maybe being exactly her size ? #but sometimes making stuff up for the purpose of interesting character design is >>> canon lol #it’s not an ​exact science tho of how the sweaters fit. it’s different for everyone :) they all wear their uniforms differently #don’t even want to say I’ll make a 919 lineup soon bc I say that once a year and never get far but. I’ll make one in… the next 5yrs?? lol #I need to make at least like head turnarounds (sides / 3/4ths / front) for 919 and honestly lots of nevermoor #at least for myself so I can solidify their designs and draw them easier in the future #and perhaps from there I’ll move onto full body turnarounds or at least poses. who knows. #anyways ummmm. if you’ve read all this. here ⭐️. #I always love discussing nevermoor character design and sharing my own thoughts and hearing other ppls thoughts as well 👍

God I just can’t get over how fucking good this chapter of Candela is. The storytelling is top notch and the entire cast has completely blown me away and it’s only the first episode. I thought I fell hard for last chapters characters. Little did I know what I was in for

#aabria’s DMing style fits this genre SO WELL like I’m literally on the edge of my seat most of the episode #the whole cast is amazing #Noshir especially has been such a treat to watch #his eyes are so expressive and his smile is GORGEOUS it literally radiates his whole face #and that VOICE! #fell in love with Rajan immediately lol #makes me want to play Red Dead again #also I need to see art of Elsie’s creature form #it sounds so horrifically beautiful and cool #and I can’t wait to learn more about Cordelia I LOVE her already #ball gown wearing icon #and Liam and Sam are knocking it out of the park with Oscar and Cosmo too #Cosmo’s acting in grey slate was so great 😆 #and whatever Oscar and Raj have going on is delicious I’m living for the drama haha #candela obscura #critical role #candela obscura spoilers #critrole spoilers #aabria iyengar #noshir dalal #gina darling #ashly burch #liam o'brien #sam riegel

i cannot stop thinking about how dracula mustered a single fucking tear convincing renfield to break the circle in the vampire hunter sequence in the beginning. i havent seen anyone mention it yet??

he CRIED on the brink of death to have his boytoy bail him out. he said some shitty things and it seemed implied he was using his powers to do this, but i like to think that means regular narcissism power bc he was in the circle.....

#renfield 2023 #renfield #dracula #i NEED drac to be more explored. ill fucking do it myself #cage dracula sorry renfield 2023 the film the movie haterz #i also like that he acts comfortable around renfield/ seems extra nutty when he was still half crisped #he was so fun and slayed so like. ya can i get a uhhh role reprise #this thang has sent me into a nic cage rabbithole and like damn. damn #he fits this role so well looks fucking perfect and seems like he had a lot of fun #genuinely hope this concept can be revisited w care bc tbh renfield also seems like it could be a pilot #i have my gripes also but thats for another post #this was mostly abt the crying i thot that was an insane touch. i also just love cage drac

Someone needs to make a Fish In A Birdcage animatic with Sunday and Robin stat

#who is the fish inside the birdcage? you decide #real talk tho post 2.2 either sibling fits #spoiler territory in the tags so be warned #but basically robin could 100% be the ‘brother that always sings songs’ #like she’s a dreamer and basically gets to have the freedom Sunday could never feasibly have #however Sunday could also be the brother who always sings songs #he supported Robin’s dreams to become a universe renowned singer and inspired robin #like the song fits so insanely well for both of them in either role it’s crazy #I’m going to write a character analysis essay about Sunday and robin in a few days I cannot contain these thoughts much longer #honkai star rail #hsr #subday hsr #hsr sunday #robin hsr #hsr robin #lark rambles

#also the whole the gods never did anything for me thing that keeps happening#not to be rude but did you ever try to contact them or did you just think they would randomly intercede#if you avoid their spheres of influence don’t be shocked if they also avoid you

these tags by @wackachewbacca on this post reminded me of a German saying/joke I’ve heard in Cologne once. I didn’t want to derail the original post too much, so here’s my own. Anyway, the joke goes: “A man prays to God everyday, ‘please, God, let me win the lottery.’ Every day: ‘please, God, let me win the lottery.’ Every week, every day: ‘I didn’t win the lottery again. Oh why, God? Please, please let me win the lottery!’ One day, finally, he hears a voice answer his prayer. It sounds very tired as it says ‘Come on, pal, give me a chance. Buy a ticket.’ ”

And this feels very much exactly like what is described in the tags and I agree completely. Pointedly not talking about Deanna and her understandably complex relationship with the Dawnfather (which is very very delicious and I love every second it’s onscreen) here, because that’s not what I mean. Complicated relationships between Gods and their followers are interesting and a great exploration (also see pretty much everything re: FCG since they started following the Changebringer), but those are decidedly not the people ever going “What have the gods ever done for me?” It’s so far mostly been people that say themselves “Oh no, I don’t really have anything to do with the gods”. If they indicated that they worshipped one or some of the Exandrian gods for a significant time and then felt snubbed when they asked for help and didn’t receive any, I might understand their point a bit more (even if the matter would probably be more complicated). But as it is, it’s like if the guy in the joke wouldn’t even pray to his god to get a lottery ticket, it’s just a person randomly going “Well, the gods certainly never helped ME win the lottery” after hearing that someone wants to dispose of the gods.

And yes, they’re engaging the whole thing in the show with a bit more nuance than I probably give them credit for here, but combined with the number of times the same arguments get brought up without anything new (or even old valid) points to back it up, it gets a bit much for me. Especially with how exhausting the fandom can be about this topic.

#critical role #critical role spoilers #cr spoilers #cr meta #cr discourse #(just to be safe) #exandrian pantheon #but also deanna's commune was SO interesting and her whole relationship with the dawnfather is so juicy it's really such a great piece of #storytelling that's fitting this campaign so so well #also i hope it's okay to tag you your tags violently reminded me of that joke and i had to share my thoughts on it #wackachewbacca #because...yes. so much that

No thoughts… only edizzy la cage aux folles au

#their relationship in the movie version is just like edizzy fr to me #the codependency… the volitility at times but beneath that just them knowing eachother better than anyone else and still being in love #and it fits so well in my head too because most aus are about them owning a club anyway lmao #plot twist stede is the straight dad and like in the movie version he lowkey crushes on ed (who would be albert / albin) except its #(well… more like ‘straight’ dad) #actually for real and ed revealing he’s not a woman is his gay awakening lmfao #only thing I’m stuck on is the way that the plot requires the other parents to be homophobic but obviously stede & mary wouldn’t be #me talking #our flag means death #edizzy #izzy hands #ed teach #izzy ofmd #blackhands #it would be interesting to have izzy in the role of albin/albert too but I think he fits george/armand way more #also the jewish last name thing from the movie would be cool to incorporate since that’s a semi common hc already #ALSO !! IT HAS THE SAME THEMES / JOURNEY WITH THE MAIN CHARACTERS IMO #like ik obviously shamelessly being yourself is just a thing in almost every piece of queer media but yeah. it fits their issues well too #it would be interesting to explore izzy pushing ed to fit a certain role in this context and both of their issues with not being vulnerable- #/themselves fully and not feeling worthy of love #lmao rip to their kid tho. hope he can gain some good coping skills from stede and mary’s kid… ah wait they aren’t great at coping either #also izzy owning a gay/drag club is so val of him so I love it for that
