#dt is a mystery

[lookingatacupoftea]

Why do Aziraphale & Crowley go to the pub? 

There’s no obvious reason, right? They could have talked about the 25 Lazarii miracle and the Nina & Maggie love plan in the bookshop. Jim was obviously there for the miracle so he knows about it and its real purpose, and he was there for Aziraphale and the angels discussing the miracle strength and Aziraphale's lie. Later Crowley will do the awning-of-a-new-age plan in front of Jim, even before* he gets wine-drunk and protective and tries to get Jim to out himself as Gabriel. Jim also knows about the song he himself sang that Aziraphale performs for Crowley on the street outside the pub. 

There’s nothing that happens during the pub outing that Jim doesn’t know already except that Crowley is a sap who watches Richard Curtis films and/or fell in love under an awning (I think the latter). 

So why go to the pub, which is apparently not their normal routine? Am I missing something? 

If there’s a reason that doesn’t meet the eye, I’m thinking it’s one of the following: 

To ensure that Mr. Brown asks Aziraphale to host the shopkeepers meeting so everyone on the street will be inside the bookshop/embassy Thursday evening.

To show themselves together acting normally (or as normally as these drama queens get) to anyone watching.

To keep an eye on someone in the pub.

To make sure someone on the street overhears the song. 

This is a different timeline and some details are different enough that it necessitates having this conversation outside the bookshop. 

Am I missing something? Is there another reason for not having this discussion in the bookshop? Is this a ⭐Clue⭐? Or did Neil just want them to go to the pub? Has anyone addressed this? 

*Assuming time is normal (ha!)

iirc they had a vote over what to call the weird route cuz the person who initially wrote the wiki page named it. pipis route

If it had to be a name someone made up then they should have kept it named pipis route That's a spoiler name too technically but a funnier type of spoiler where anyone who didn't know what it was talking about and only read the name would only think "What does that mean" or "What am i supposed to do with that information". Gives a totally incorrect impression for what steps could be involved you'd never figure out what the point is or what it entails from the name alone in fact you'd only lose information from knowing the name and nothing else about it

#ask #''snowgrave'' is very ''oh things die in this and its cold i get it'' #but ''pipis'' is mysterious. ''pipis'' has no answers. #''pipis'' is only relevant for like 2 rooms in the entire run. #dt

Every once in a while I'll despair a little at finding so little Hina and/or Rui or Koorime content in general and then I'll recall how in a post asking "whatever character you're drawing their fate is yours now", a description of mine of Hina (I think I said "had illegal sex and will die in illegal childbirth (allegedly, in the manga, but yes does die) or by suicide after having said illegal childbirth (allegedly, in the anime)") picqued someone's interest and they wondered what that character was from. I told them and then they never asked me any further abt that (fair, it's a heavy description to hear on the Internet from a stranger and the yyh fandom is terrifying and Hina's presence in the story as "tragic female character willing to die in childbirth" and it being not left to much speculation Why She Was Willing To Do That aside from the expectant "well she's a female character and she was written by a man so it must've been the ye old ideal and self-sacrificing mother trope" are all fine reasons that come to mind) but I'm carrying that affirmation in my heart! I know that if a character's story is just told in an interesting way, they can in fact become interesting through that interpretation, even if at first they were expected to be boring.

#I think another couple of factors was Togashi's exhaustion with the series #and also bc his initial thought to “deconstruct the characters” was dissuaded from #but also bc a lot of intrigue for Hiei lies in him being a mysterious gremlin with no home #the only reason for giving him a home is to give him a home that will reject him #to give him a family is to give him a background where suddenly his behaviour is much less nature #and nurture in a way that a given fan might not like for him #hes no longer “gremlin” or “little jackass” he becomes a “person (character)” #hes no longer a badass he's a tragic character with the sort of backstory that in no way Leaves him a badass #this view I have of yyh fans might be incorrect but from my experience the biggest circle #fall for the very things the dt antagonists belive that there's nothing worse #than being a human being who has an impact on the world and that the world can see them #this combined w the lack of time and the lack of energy to continue it any more than he had to #is what resulted in “dead mum; she was dead bf u got here” thing & Rui feeling so guilty shed rather b killed #&Yukina being so “respectful” of Hieis decision not to reveal himself even tho she must know #who he is - never allowed to confront him & yet Hieis development is given form through *Mukuro* #another “badass character” but who needs saving she won't admit to & is in no way tied to him familially #I think Mukuros “catharsis” was meant 2b Hieis & Hieis role in that chapter was supposed 2b Yukinas Ill die on this hill!! #yyh things #Hina #Yukina #Rui #Mukuro

my roman empire is the mystery of the falling out that michael italiano and daniel ricciardo had

#im bringing this up bc michael just showed up on dts w yuki lol #but it’s one of the f1 biggest mysteries that i want solved lol and unfortunately we will never know what happened #like they went from besties to not talking to each other and standing like 👬🏻 five feet apart in the alpha tauri garage #within a few months and i want the tea. i don’t buy the rumours that were going around about daniels weight btw #roscoehamiltons.txt

[deltaruminations]

you guys ever think about how the DT extraction machine, possibly implied to have been initially designed/prototyped by gaster, is shaped like a deer skull. and how toby fox originally meant to have more things foreshadowing it earlier in UT. but the only one he kept in the final game was a deer monster themed around a december holiday

#i just. #$ 666 mystery man lore hell #btw alphys was still the one to isolate and name determination #whatever plans G might have had for the machine. it couldn’t have been as refined as DT extraction specifically #i think maybe it was designed for analyzing the then-unknown constituent parts of a SOUL. ripping it apart in a way #hm. mmmmmhhhhm. who knows lol

You know what, I want DT and MS to act in a movie or tv show together and I want DT to play a proper psycho because he is really interesting in those roles. We know he can play all the other roles perfectly but we don’t have enough of proper psychopaths.

And then imagine MS as a… detective? Trying to catch him? Probably catching him a few times and the interrogations would be fantastic! Their chemistry!!!

DT’s character would keep on escaping anyway. The frustrations would be growing. Murder mysteries after murder mysteries. Or not really mysteries because MS’s character knows it’s him but he just can’t bloody prove it.

And DT’s character is having the time of his life, pissing him off, laughing in his face. And everyone just falls for him because he’s pretty and charming and must be innocent! And MS’s character falls too BUT his moral high ground has to win. But, god, he realises he is looking forward to another mystery so he can catch him and talk to him. Sick.

And DT’s character drives the audience insane too because he’s so charming, funny, pretty and flirty, and oh so clever, but everything points to him being the murderer.

And he keeps on manipulating everyone around him with charming stories and sad stories and audience doesn’t even know which ones are true but everyone always, always, always falls for him.

And MS’s character has literally everyone against him because everyone adores the little psychopath and frustratingly so does he but NO oh god this is so wrong. So bloody wrong. Oh god maybe it’s NOT him?

And DT’s character loves the fact that MS’s character is giving in to him but… he stops chasing him. So he goes more obvious. It’s boring without being chased!

And MS’s character is a mess catching him again and says we know it’s not you, because he doesn’t want it to be him, and DT’s character leans over the table and whispers in his ear;

I will tell you who’s next.

And he does. And MS’s character runs to save the person. But he’s late.

The problem is. When he tells others he knew from DT’s character… nobody believes him. How could it be him when he was already arrested? What if… it’s MS’s character behind it?

He gets suspended. The psychopath set free.

MS’s character locks himself up away from everyone, angry at everything. And then the little psychopath starts showing up at his place.

And he’s drunk enough to let him in. Because he’s pretty and charming and that insanity in his eyes that kept him sober usually is gone. He’s perfect.

And everything feels perfect. The charm, the jokes, the sex, the conversations, the breakfast in the morning.

Except whenever he disappears for some time, another murder happens.

And what do you do when you fall in love with a psychopath?

Get Your Shit Together - Extra; a section of a DTS Episode.

Masterlist | Part 1

genre: 2024 Season AU

pairing: there will be romance but I haven't finalised who yet. platonic! oc x literally the whole grid.

warnings: lots swearing, major car accident, mentions of broken bones, blood and hospitals. A lot of shit happens.

context: Sadie, a 20 year old university student from Melbourne, decided to take a gap year and volunteer at 2 Formula One races in different countries.

Sadie's Faceclaim: Maia Mitchell (but you can visualise her however you want :) )

comments: READ CHAPTER FOUR BEFORE READING THIS. This is an extra and is not actually thaaaat vital to the story. I just know if this happened irl, DTS would 100% make an entire episode on it. This is gonna be so strange to write because DTS is a visual format but imma try for the cool perspective. You’re gonna need a good imagination.

*Drive to Survive theme and intro*

WILL BUXTON: Silverstone, the home of formula one.

LANDO NORRIS: It’s one of my favourite tracks, I love the support we get there.

BUXTON: Our hearts were in our mouths, in 2024. The title fight was ramping up!

CHARLES LECLERC: It was close.

CARLOS SAINZ: We were fighting, but it was horrific race.

BUXTON: It ended in shambles.

OSCAR PIASTRI: I mean, I was out in lap, 5 I think, it might’ve been 6.

BUXTON: No one expected five DNF’s.

LEWIS HAMILTON: I don’t know how it happened.

BUXTON: Let alone Lando’s accident.

NORRIS: I don’t remember much.

BUXTON: or the Mystery Medic.

*dramatic pause*

BUXTON: It was incredible, in a morbid way.

NORRIS: I was panicking

*onboard footage of moments after the crash, with radio subtitles*

NORRIS *onboard radio*: MY ANKLE, **** MY FOOT!

BUXTON: First, they catch Lando as he falls from the halo. He is in pain, and at one point you can hear him scream.

*onboard footage of the Mystery Medic catching Lando as he falls from the halo*

NORRIS: I knew it was my ankle or my foot. I’d never been in so much pain.

BUXTON: The medic starts to, essentially drag, Lando towards a safe section of the barrier. We could see that it was bad. We could see how much was relying on them and leaning on them, considering that he was taller than the medic.

PIASTRI: We could see that he wasn’t even letting it touch the ground.

NORRIS: “Keep it off the ground,” they told me. They didn’t have to, I was in too much pain anyway.

BUXTON: Then Sergio Perez approaches the accident.

TOTO WOLFF: There was debris everywhere, McLaren and Mercedes.

SERGIO PEREZ: I still do not know how I did not see it.

NORRIS: I didn’t know until I was on a stretcher.

BUXTON: You can see, if you watch the replay you can see, the moment the Mystery Medic hears Checo’s car.

*footage of the Mystery Medic turning their head towards the track*

BUXTON: Put the moment into slow motion, and you can see them make the choice.

*footage of the Mystery Medic putting both hands on Lando’s waist and switching to his right side*

BUXTON: To put yourself between a driver and a Formula One car? That’s either incredibly brave or incredibly stupid.

HAMILTON: Brave.

WOLFF: Stupid.

BUXTON: Either way, I don’t think Drive to Survive can show what happened.

*footage of Perez’s Red Bull striking black and papaya debris*

BUXTON: The medic barely stumbled.

NORRIS: If I hadn’t have seen it afterwards, I wouldn’t have known. I don’t remember it happening.

BUXTON: It was horrifying! They were walking, and almost carrying Lando, with a piece of debris in their thigh.

NORRIS: I’ve watched the replay. It was headed straight for me.

BUXTON: Watching it live was… it was awful! But you couldn’t look away.

*footage of everyone in the McLaren garage watching screens with various expressions of terror*

BUXTON: You had to know if they were going to make it.

NORRIS: They saved my life. Racing is my life, and if that debris had hit my leg? We don’t know what damage it could have done.

BUXTON: But there’s a reason we call them the Mystery Medic, and it may be a feat just as incredible. They did the impossible.

*seperate shots of Sir Lewis Hamilton and Max Verstappen placed side by side*

BUXTON: Lewis and Max worked together. They put their rivalry aside and worked together to keep the Mystery Medic a secret and we have no idea why.

MAX VERSTAPPEN and HAMILTON *in unison*: I’m not going to comment on that.

BUXTON: We don’t know their name. We don’t know who they are, where they’re from, or how they’re doing now.

*another dramatic pause*

BUXTON: It’s like they never existed.

did i ever post about my old theory that the reason the knight disappeared from cyber world was literally just because the internet in town is out. because chapter 2 establishes the knight has outright disappeared from cyber world  but this isn’t a factor in chapter 1 at all in fact if i remember correctly it seemed moreso implied that the knight is still in contact with the king in some way. So I’d thought it would be really funny if that was just because the internet is out. I don’t know if this holds up to scrutiny at all but it’s just very funny to me

#this would possibly imply all that shit happened to spamton only like a week ago and he's already like that about it but that's also funny #though actually one of spamton's dialogues specifically kind of disproves this because he's stopped from talking about the knight #by presumably also the knight otherwise i don't know why whatever mystery force would be so mad about him talking about that. #...maybe the knight was using data for that. Phone joke #mypost #dt

[directdogman]

Hey dogman, idk if you answered this

Who, out of both DSAF and Dialtown, was your favourite to write and/or create?

It's very hard for me to pick favourites with my characters because I don't tend to give characters a lot of screen-time unless I find a character interesting or fun to write. You've caught me in a talkative mood, so warning, there's an onslaught of text coming!

DSaF: Dave was the most fun to write for, as I remember it. I mean, the guy is the walking personification of chaos and even when he's being constructive (eg, rigging robots to do insane stuff), it's usually in a destructive capacity. Dave will do LITERALLY ANYTHING but contribute to society in meaningful/valuable ways.

In terms of what character-writing I was most 'proud' of, I was also pretty happy with Dr Henry Miller, as a villain. Namely the research he embarked on, described in his logs in DSaF 3 (which the fandom evidently agreed with, as I got really strong feedback on those logs.)

One issue a lot of people (including myself) have with canon William Afton is that he's this kind of mad scientist character but his research doesn't really seem to be... idk, going anywhere? Other than using remnant (soul nectar?) to make kids possess robots, it's kind of a mystery how he got to this point he did from running a bad fast food restaurant. William gets fleshed out motivations in TSE and even then, it mainly revolves around his relationship with Henry Emily, iirc. It's actually pretty accurate to how real serial killers think, imo, but there's a pretty wide berth between this kind of serial killer and becoming a sci-fi fast-food mad scientist... So, I decided to try to bridge that gap.

DSaF Henry's logs actually mention where the idea for his research came from, namely the fact that he existed in a world with normal scientific rules just like ours and seemingly discovered something supernatural, and he approaches it like an amoral scientist would - trying to figure out how to figure out more about the fabric of reality using the newly discovered phenomenon of possession. The 'joy of creation' phrase people pulled from Golden Freddy's phone call in FNaF 1 is given context - Henry is trying to find out what's on the other side (and eventually, how existence itself formed.)

There's other aspects to his character that make him more interesting too, like the implication that his research is partially an excuse for him to act on an underlying sadism (with scenes implying that he inflicts damage on others than can't be justified as assisting with his research.) His background as a dissident/quack laughing-stock scientist (thanks to pushing his soul theory in a best-selling book, which is considered pseudoscience) BEFORE he embarked on his journey to become a fast food tycoon also makes it less farfetch'd that he'd be capable of y'know, harvesting human souls intentionally to continue his research?

I had more for the character on paper that people haven't seen but some of it wasn't revealed due to it feeling a bit too disturbing to publish. None of the contents would've been all that controversial, more just too tonally disturbing when written about in detail (like a omitted part from his backstory/lore post where he managed to pick up a hazy audio of his wife + son's crying from the radio of the car his wife/son drowned in and reacted with genuine elation upon realizing he'd discovered a new scientific phenomenon (as this was the first time Henry witnessed soul-possession.)) Yeah.

I don't feel much of a need to revisit Henry as a character because as a series villain, he was pretty thoroughly-written and he did his job effectively... And his fate was well earned! (He even got an epilogue short-story a few years back, further cementing his fate!)

Dialtown: From the characters/writing that the fandom has seen? Tough to say. I genuinely really like every DT character. Gingi and Mayor Mingus are two of my favourite characters to write for because they're both really insistent and react to adversity in a really comically indignant way. Mingus is more like Gingi than she cares to admit in very specific ways, which is the core hypocrisy of her character - she's one of the most abnormal things IN Dialtown, and spends the game on a quest opposing abnormality that she, herself, can't stand.

Many absolute rulers have debilitating physical and/or mental cruxes and despite that, usually have the final say on what is/isn't okay, often guided by arbitrary preferences. It's funny to remember all of the ancient kings and emperors who dictated how others should act, talk and even think, when very many of them themselves were anything except a good reflection of their own subjects! It's an irony I quite enjoy and leads to a fun character to write for!

My favourite DT writing is probably some of my Callum Crown speech drafts. I have a definite bias here since Crown's character is based on many figures I've encountered in my own reading (and his story relates to topics I enjoy reading about.) A lot of that is real nerd shit that wouldn't be interesting to 99.9% of DT fans (like a long conversation where Crown + Milt discuss a campaign speech Milt wrote for Crown and they bicker about if the wording/arguments used are truly honest.) Again, not super relevant to Dialtown-proper, but it explains a lot about why the world of DT ended up the way it did.

Realistically, the story of Dialtown itself is basically a weird little epilogue to a story that ended decades upon decades ago, centered around a bunch of small-town nobodies circling around the carcass of the last surviving main character of the old story.

I'm also very happy with Gingi's character partially because I know more about Gingi's past/future than you guys do. Gingi has such rotten memory that Gingi's backstory before DT's story begins is basically a complete mystery. Thanks to Gingi never getting close enough to any humans before laying its eggs, there's nobody in Gingi's life that can fill in the gaps. Companionship means so much to Gingi because prior to meeting The Gang, Gingi is aware of a massive and unknown block of time that's a complete mystery precisely because Gingi had nobody in its life. To Gingi, this time was basically akin to being non-sentient or dead, and Gingi would never go back.

While I was making DSaF, I drafted a ton of other stories on paper. I considered making most of them, but decided not to for various reasons, despite getting some solid feedback from collaborators. Bits of almost all of those project ideas made it into DT, with Gingi having traits from several other main characters I prototyped years and years ago. This includes where Gingi came from and what exactly Gingi is. I don't want to mislead people into thinking Gingi is more important than it is, like Gingi is the key to unlocking DT lore (I promise there's a LOT of aimless scuttling/devouring in Gingi's past and relatively little else!) BUT: Of everything from those old scrapped projects, Gingi is what I decided deserved to survive the most. And that has to count for something.

One day I'd love to make sequels to DT and perhaps explore some of the stuff I've described above, like why the hell the world of DT is the way it is or maybe where the hell Gingi spawned from. Thanks
