llama i must know
do you have any thoughts about siren bad sanses? 👉👈(//ŏ⁠﹏⁠ŏ⁠//)
do i
Horror: Now, Skull is a cecaelia. But I think Horror would be a little different. A big frightening toothed whale - particularly, a Risso's dolphin. Risso's dolphins have a cool effect where any time they get an injury, their scars lose pigment and remain white forever. Horror is slowly turning whiter and whiter as time goes on.
Tumblr media
Just like usual, he used to be normal sized, but his injury kickstarted a bizarre growth spurt and he's become far larger than he ever should've. He enjoys targeting boats - since he's so big he can easily sink small ships, his favourite 'game' is ramming vessels and seeing who survives after the ship rolls over. He eats anyone who drowns.
I can imagine him falling in love with you from the water, and rocking your boat purely to get your attention. If you ignore him he slams into the hull in frustration. He'd never sink your boat, of course... not unless you were really, REALLY ignoring him, and he lost his temper.
Dust: An oceanic whitetip shark. The beautiful dark colouring. The 'dusty' white edges of the fins and tail. A solitary, wandering creature that's probably responsible for many of the open-water shark attacks attributed to other species... IMO, it's absolutely perfect.
Tumblr media
Before joining Nightmare, he travelled long distances in isolation, avoiding large vessels or groups but hunting down and killing anyone (or anything) he caught alone. He'll follow prey for weeks; he often waits for people on boats to go stir crazy before he attacks.
He's a distant admirer. He'll stalk from afar, but come closer at night, when it's hard to distinguish his dark shape against the moonlit sea. He thinks you'll be a very pretty siren.
Killer: @aka-indulgence suggested Killer is a bull shark and she's absolutely right. Killer is hyperactive and murderous, but incredibly loyal to those he cares about (even if he won't admit he cares). Bull sharks are fast, notoriously aggressive, yet surprisingly social.
Tumblr media
Killer just enjoys... well, killing. He sometimes plays with his prey, but the games are never as forgiving as Horror's, or as patient as Dust's. He likes to bite the limbs off of his targets and watch them struggle to get away.
He's extremely friendly to you. Worryingly so. He lacks any subtlety, he'll come right up to your boat and put his arms over the edge when he wants your attention, flirting like you didn't just watch him murder another siren in cold blood. A swift strike with an oar is usually enough to ward him off - but unfortunately, it never seems to chase him away permanently.
Nightmare: He isn't any one species. He's much, much older. He was something else before his corruption... but times change, don't they? If you don't know what to call him, he certainly doesn't mind the ego stroke of being called a kraken.
Tumblr media
Obviously it would be ridiculous of me to make Nightmare anything other than a cecaelia. He's large, scary, black as midnight sea, beautifully bioluminescent when he wants to be. He has attributes of lots of different deep-sea creatures; retractable hooks in his tentacles, a toxic bite, terrifying teeth, incredible vision. He's not the kind of thing you want to encounter underwater. Ever.
The other sirens would be very reluctant to let Nightmare know you exist. But when all three of his underlings are chasing the same prey... well. You'll catch his eye sooner or later.

I'm not a hazbin hotel artist I'm just really art blocked mkay. Don't even. Okay so husk. Ngl as a character, he's so, He's so cool!!!! But his design is so, so :///
So I revamped a lot of stuff!!! Since he's a cat, removed the wings and added a lot more hair to both give a dirty/scruffy look but also kinda give him like a mane. Also gives his head some shape with the absence of his hat
I also made his main color green, because greed (tho I think he more fits gluttony but shh), the bottoms of casino tables, green cash, and green olives in martinis. It'll help him stand out more as well from the super redness of everything.
Since he was also a Vietnam vet, I think his jacket would kinda resemble jackets I've seen vets wear, like biker jackets and stuff. Also let him have a little callback to his wings with the design.
Also Alastor totally forced him to wear a tie to look 'professional' but Husk pulled a Jake Peralta and doesn't wear it properly
Also did yall know he died by suicide of drowning? Cus I sure didn't. I didn't really add much that'd tell you that, admittedly, but I think he always vaguely smells of sewer water and is damp/dripping.

I think if Maul was a mermaid, he would be one of those freaky deep-sea fish that people are afraid of. (Based off of the Black Dragonfish, Idiacanthus sp.)
Not sure what kind of AU this is! I'm thinking "Maul gets cut in half, gets thrown into an ocean and becomes forever changed by the unknowable energies in the water."
And of course he found Obi-wan and is dragging him down :) Don't worry he's fine

Currently obssessing over 0308 (as usual) and the way punishment/judgement is represented as fire in Fuuta's MVs and rain/water in Amane's. The parallels are driving me insane I swear.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Punishing someone else.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Being punished (I assume Fuuta is supposed to be burning here).
Like okay okay listen.
CW: Online harrassment, doxxing, child abuse, cults and indoctrination, burning and drowning.
What do these things represent in the MVs? Well, like I said, it's punishment or judgement. They're these suffocating, overpowering forces of nature which feel like they swallow you whole, right?
[Backdraft] Flames closing in, are both sides losers? Flames closing in, can’t douse this FIRE
Alight, enmeshed, their eyes closing in Dodging seems impossible Bust out, explode that counter uppercut Swallowing me whole, can’t douse this FIRE
Tumblr media
Amane may not mention water in her lyrics, but the visuals are clear enough.
But obviously they're so so different. The fires in Bring it On and Backdraft always have human origin. It's Fuuta weilding the fire swords, it's Fuuta who uses the highly flammable spray paint. In fact, Fuuta uses the username Pazuzu, a wind demon, and wind very easily causes fires to spread and worsen (more on the Fuuta-Pazuzu connection in this post by milk-ly I highly recommend you read!). Fuuta for a long time had control of the punishment and judgement dealt out to others, he controlled the fire.
But humans don't control rain. It always comes from nature, and in Amane's eyes, from a God. It's an immutable fact of life, punishment shall come because it is ordained by a higher power.
Tumblr media
Right? You get it?
And there's more. Because rain and water in general is a necessity. It's something humans can't live without. Even if it's unpleasant or annoying when it does rain, people should always be grateful that it does. Even if it's inescapable, it's a gift from God. It's love.
[Magic] But it’s not scary at all, because it’s love I can really think it’s great. See, isn’t it a great thing?
Please get my girl some therapy.
Okay so that's all well and good. But probably the most important difference is the aftermath.
Because for Fuuta, fire doesn't leave anything behind, but ash. It's a completely destructive force. Even if something new can take the burnt object's place (see: agricultural uses of fire), the old object is completely destroyed. It's unforgiving, nothing good can come from being burnt.
[Backdraft] An ever-victorious FIRE, burn so high 'till it becomes ash
With just one mistake and I’m out of chances Bless me, please, with one more chance
Fuuta's lives in a world where judgement is damning. Just one mistake, and you're already burning, and no one can douse the fire. That's how it's always been for him and the people he attacked. Nothing good comes from being punished, and there are no second chances.
But rain isn't like that. After the rain comes the rainbow, right? After punishment comes reform, after being judged, one can become a better version of themselves.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
The thing that ties all the Purge March scenes with a rainbow is the theme of punishment, of rain. It first appears when Amane fumbles the Gozake flag, later when Amane heals the cat, then the last two images are after her victim killed the cat. It's the good following the judgement, the "improvement."
[Magic] I won’t say “I’ve had enough” Will you laugh with me and forgive me? I promise! I can only become a better girl!
I wonder why she won't say she's had enough punishment...
[The Purge March] The “It can’t be helped”, from the scum who can’t be helped That makes them doubtlessly, clearly, absolutely, unequivocally, beyond any doubt, GUILTY
Oh right! Because saying you won't be able to change after punishment is blasphemous and makes you "scum who can't be helped"! Right!
Please get my girl some therapy.
Okay, and why's all this paralleling important? Like sure it's neat, but this is all stuff that can be gathered individually from each MV, why do we gotta relate it to one another?
Well, because it makes it make so much more sense.
[Fuuta] Brat, you’re on the side who weren’t forgiven too, right? ……so why can you still stand? Don’t you can hear it too? The voices blaming us. ……I don’t have the energy to do anything like this. [Amane] It goes without saying. Because there’s something far more important than the voices of people we can’t even see. People are able to get back up again. As long as there’s something to guide them. Kajiyama Futa, by coincidence today happens to be your birthday, correct? Don’t you think it’s a good opportunity to be reborn?
Of course Fuuta wants to believe Amane! Because if her religion is right, then he does have a second chance!
Bless me, please, with one more chance
The use of "bless" here really became quite ironic huh. (Disclaimer, I don't have a good way of checking if there really is a religious implication in the original Japanese lyric and I actually think there isn't)
He's going through the punishment here, and he's reforming! He probably wouldn't dox anyone again after what happened with Killcheroy. Suddenly, his Guilty verdict isn't just an unforgiving fire which will consume him whole and leave nothing but ash. Instead, it's just a tiny bit of rain, and as long as he holds out, he can see the rainbow. If you feel like you're standing in an inferno, wouldn't you rather be in the rain instead?
I've always been worried about how Fuuta would react to a second Amane Guilty. I'm pretty sure Amane herself would only cling to her beliefs harder, because when the rain turns into a storm, the rainbow becomes even more necessary. If after all she's gone through she still believes in her faith, there is zero chance in my mind a second Guilty would help at all. The question is what the hell would Fuuta do if Amane suffers so much and the only thing she has left is her religion. The issue is that Amane's religion, given everything I talked about, seems like it would love martyrs, so if Fuuta is already starting to believe, he's only going to be... more impressed? Maybe? By Amane.
[Magic] I won’t say “I’ve had enough” Will you laugh with me and forgive me?
Yeah that line again.
And I don't know man, I really hope he doesn't end up attacking Shidou in Amane's stead, but I think it's not all that impossible. And it would also be very funny I think, a small part of me wants to see the reaction of people who voted Amane Guilty to protect Shidou if that happens.
Would Amane Innocent help? Not by itself, probably. But if Amane gets into a better mental state, it's possible Fuuta would be able to sorta start getting her to realize some of the bad parts of her cult and hopefully a Trial 3 inno on Amane would be enough to start a path to healing.
Listen, Shidou can survive a stab, and he can tell someone else how to heal the other injured prisoners. He and the others can probably come back from Shidou's injury. I don't think Amane can come back from a second Guilty if I'm honest. Given the Situation, I hope I'm wrong, but I am so so worried.
Come on Fuuta make a Timelines post asking us to inno Amane like Haruka did with Mu. Do it. I know it didn't go well last time but you know.
Anyways, Inno Amane please- take care!

Every time I close my eyes to sleep I'm back in the water, I try to hold my breath and swim back up but the surface gets further and further away from me. I can't hold my breath anymore, I gasp and icy water rushes into my lungs. I can feel myself being pulled down and everything around me gets darker. I can hear their voices... your voice, telling me to join you in the water. It feels so real I forget it's a dream.
I'm scared I'll be there in the dark, cold water when I wake up.

Well that was that she guessed. Sunny considered to herself that she had a pretty good run. But really, what a no good terrible reason to make her father cry. Could he even cry? She didn't think she'd ever seen him do it. Maybe he'd make an exception for her. (🎵!)
Tumblr media
Would they even ever find her down here? Would the ocean spit her out- or keep her trapped in this cave until that awful boy came back to use her tiny bones like a xylophone? She hoped for the first. She didn't want to give him the satisfaction- or the musical accompaniment.
Tumblr media
And down down down Alice fell. And as her vision became more clouded and the fire licked at her throat, she could only hope they all knew how much she would miss them. But she was tired now, and the ocean whispered to her that it was time to let go.
Tumblr media
So she closed her eyes, and took a breath.
Tumblr media
And the spirits of the island, the volcano, and the sea watched on, as in the small cave, shielded from prying eyes of the stars breaking through the dusk outside, a long forgotten promise was kept.
Tumblr media
Because you see, there is great magic in a mermaid's kiss. And as Sunny Helianthus Plott's last breath floated up through the too small crack in the ceiling, the ocean began to sing for her.
Not a lullaby this time, but a new song altogether.
Tumblr media
A Promise of Protection. For a Child of the Ocean.
