dishonored chaos thoughts. usually, when you discuss a person's actions, you do so in terms of intention, behaviour, outcome.
when the dishonored fandom talks about high chaos corvo, or low chaos corvo, the reader is to infer the intentions & behaviours this aligns to. high/low chaos is a useful short hand to discuss AUs: it conveys a similar set of outcomes in gameplay terms, given the achievements pushing certain behaviours (eg. ghost/clean hands, & the necessity of a second playthrough encouraging behaviours you haven't explored)
but. although there's a broad scope of behaviours (because there's lots of choices in-game) that the outcomes (chaos levels) could refer to, I think we often underrepresent intentions in all this.
strange, because revenge is such a core theme. for instance, compare your headcanons for vengeful & high chaos corvo, vs. vengeful & yet, still low chaos corvo.
or, go the other way, and corvo is merciful & low chaos... vs. merciful & high chaos. this could be anything - assassin returns from jail and sees the world has turned to shit, gets powers which he takes to mean that his mercy need not be bloodless.
fun, right?

whether it is dh1 or dh2, CORVO IS ALWAYS BEING STEPPED ON.
THAT MAN DOES NOT KNOW THE WORD BREAK.
JUST LEAVE HIM ALONE!!!!!! please.
i swear i just keep replaying the first few minutes of the first game just to talk to every single person and be relieved that they don't feel like chasing me around with a sword. truly refreshing. makes my day.

This witch somehow didn’t notice Corvo and was sipping tea even after her friend passed out.
Never noticed this painting of Billie before. I like it.
Finished Dishonored 2 for the fourth time. I got the Duke Corvo ending on Low Chaos. I was on New Game +.
Now I’m working on my first High Chaos Emily no powers mode.

I feel like DH2 should have slightly different dialogue depending on your most recent play through of DH. Not much difference, just a few lines that are changed slightly.

To be or not to be (a blackmailer) part 2
After the incident with Damian, word spread throughout the Wayne family, and now everyone was fighting over who would get to meet the newest member of the family (aside from Alfred, who was simply too dignified for something like that, and Bruce, who knew that Danny was coming over next weekend to visit the foster kittens.)
Jason was the next to interact with Danny, and contrary to what anyone says, it was purely by accident that he managed to bump into the kid.
Danny was chasing after a ghost who had stolen his newest invention for a Wayne Industries competition. He was hoping to use the invention to gain an internship in the engineering department and finally get out of the fast food industry. The ghost was a child and seemed to grab anything shiny or even remotely interesting.
He'd chased the kid all the way to a warehouse in Crime Alley where the kid lost steam and gave up the chase. Danny grabs the device, rips open a bright green portal, and shoves the kid through before quickly closing it again.
He's not in a hurry to head home, and he kinda needs to stop at the store anyway for a few ingredients before Tim comes by for dinner, so he transforms out of ghost form after making sure no one is around. He doesn't really come to Crime Alley often, so he wasn't expecting the mugging he was being subjected to by some creep with a pocketknife. He wasn't surprised (it's Crime Alley after all) but he'd been going over his grocery list in his head.
He was debating whether to completely ignore the guy or to punch the guy in the face when Red Hood came out of nowhere and smacked him around before turning to Danny and making sure he was ok.
Danny, of course, has to say something snarky while at the same time reassuring the hero that he was, in fact, just dandy.
Jason didn't rush all the way over here for nothing and racked his brain for any ideas that would let him hang with Danny. He didn't have to, though, because Danny stared at him with starry eyes and enthusiastically asked for an autograph AND a picture in one breathless sentence. Mentally punching the air he brings out his own phone and they both get pictures of the duo.
Jason only wanted the photo to rub it in everyone's face while Danny wanted a keepsake of his favorite Gotham hero. No matter what Tim said, Red Robin was Not the best and that was something they'd just have to agree to disagree on even if Tim did grumble about it every time it was brought up.
Red Hood drove Danny to the store and even waited for him to finish so he could drive him home. A few more pics in hand, and a dazed Danny was dropped off at his apartment.
The Wayne manor was in an uproar when the pics hit the Batfam group chat.
