i know everyone wants the legendary stalker to be cool but i'm obsessed with the fact that besides being like, badass or whatever, the only things we know about her is that she a) liked fancy wine, and b) was rude to a kid. PLEASE if we ever see her let her be the most competent stalker of all time AND a disaster as a person. just unpleasant vibes all around.
#yeah maybe carlo was being pushy but her URGHHHH gemini get these annoying brats out of here was. a bit much. and also kind of funny.#i say all of this fondly. i want her to be terrible because i think its more fun.#lies of p#'she wasnt a bastard nor a sweeper' in my heart its bc both bastards and sweepers found her insufferable ♥️ cringe fail woman of all time#people only talk abt her accomplishments bc if you ask anyone who knew her about her as a person you'd get a very awkward 'ummmmm'#i'm ready to be disappointed if we do get more on her but until then. this is my truth

since as per the survivor's mask description, rookie stalkers are made to wear "embarrassing" animal masks by their seniors, i know in my heart that both carlo and romeo would've started out as stalkers with donkey masks....
#no shade to donkeys. they're very cute. or to the mad donkey. he's a real one for the attempted geppetto murder.#but it fits the context SO well...#lies of p#we all already know what's my take on carlo's chosen stalker mask animal would've been. romeo on the other hand........#i have my picks and my biases and very specific things i want from it for pretentious symbolism reasons and maybe half a clue.#i will figure it out eventually ✌️

who's pulling the strings of the puppet king?
#lies of p#lies of p romeo#king of puppets#lies of p geppetto#fanart#digital art#hi hello do you think romeo was fully conscious when geppetto enacted law zero (?through him?).#i think about these two a lot... i don't tend to jump straight to the 'deal with the devil' part because there's something about--#--two people with nothing in common but the empty space between them. world's worst grief bonding situation!!!#and there's something a lot more compelling about that to me. and that's not even mentioning the grand covenant in the room--#merits its own post or something else. (because i think about it more than anything ever.)#tl;dr i would kill carlo myself if i got to witness them having the most painfully unpleasant conversation ever had by two people.#anyway i should comment on art process too huh.#the gist of it is if no one got me i know red and black got me.#it's my Old Reliable. i've been nearly gnawing my hands off from. not managing to get anything done in a way i liked so i went back.#i feel better now.... :-)#anyway. worst in-laws ever <3

one of geppetto's worst crimes (definitely in the top 5) was giving romeo's puppet body human feet. he should've had claws. or hooves.
#you know how cheetah claws aren't fully retractable as part of their stupid speed build. like that.#i think hooves would fit him better though. (hehe donkey)#lies of p#this is my most serious post yet

it's such a shame that sophia as a character is so reliant on keeping everything about her a mystery until.... literally the last chapter, because it makes her a lot weaker as.... one of the main characters. she's intended to have the same level of importance as geppetto in the narrative, however, in execution..... you can't really get invested in her because she doesn't really offer anything meaningful to you until the very end, and by then it feels a little too little too late. (and so much of it is wrapped around simon's plotline, which i have already expressed i don't really care for.)
i think it's why i try to make a bigger deal of things like the hermit's cave, or the thing about being a listener being "the devil's power", according to sophia's mother. these bits show her as an existing part of the setting she's in, and not as the walking Big Reveal set-up she... kind of is, honestly.
sophia is meant to be p's guide through his growing humanity, a counterpoint to geppetto, and i wish more was done with it!!!
#lies of p#love this game dearly which means i must dissect it like a shrimp. for better or worse#sophia is such a frustrating character to think about writing-wise... girl i am rewriting you in my brain half the time#i still think she should've been granted some degree of complex morality. the most we get is the ~i lied about why i woke you up~ ordeal--#--which hardly means anything given she still guided him towards saving the city without any conflict with her real goal#it would make more sense as to why the story is so cagey with her.#and would make her a more interesting foil to geppetto.#-> i know what *i* would have her do in that regard. but that's a secret. for now.#theres more to be said but im tired of trying to work this post out. fly free little bird

everyone has their own niche media to unnecessarily bring up when thinking about the other thing they enjoy. and unfortunately mine is like, a brazilian miniseries from 2008 adapting a classic.
#capitu 2008 you are my everything.... my favorite book adaptation of all time....#it's not my fault if young bentinho really is the perfect carlo casting for me......#not main tagging this. i will talk about this again.#<- guy who wants to draw the 'eis aqui ezequel de souza escobar' bit w carlo and romeo so bad#(the whole escobar introduction scene feels soooo romeo)

reading about the history of computer science is very fun for having thoughts about the technology of the game's setting (which i assume must exist in the same level to one extent or another outside of krat, even if puppets are a monopoly of krat's. i mean, geppetto is not even from krat and he's been established to be a genius inventor even before he came there and invented puppets)
do you think puppets are programmed through some form of punched card on a real version of the analytical engine. do you think ada lovelace existed in this world or that she at least had an equivalent.
#yes there's ergo but that's like. their dubiously sourced battery. i'm talking about the things they are programmed to do as machines#i think they are connected but still separate enough that one could alter one without affecting the other's functionality#lies of p#ok i will admit in my head a puppet's '''cpu''' kind of looks like the cube.#with the idea being that the groves on it acting as a programming language (and conceptually that could resemble a brain's wrinkles?)#and the ergo is like. a wishstone. it's in there. making the whole thing work as the ''cube'' is programmed to. but separate pieces#this is not a theory or anything with any real basis on something it's just an image that my brain conjured up and it stuck.#that said: i hope they have a mini-loom that reads punchcards in them <3

considering venigni is ~the prince of high society~, and puppet ripper is strongly suggested to have been arlecchino's weapon... it really is a weapon befitting of a kingslayer, huh
#lies of p#i made a post about this before. but fuck it. this one is slightly different#also i wuuuuuuv puppet ripper as a weapon (rabbits2 electric boogaloo cheese grater <3) but alas i don't see using it as like. honoring him#alidoro probably was like 'teehee you killed the king of puppets. do you want a weapon that (according to that bitch ass medoro) killed--#--another symbolic king or whatever. i got just the thing for ya'#i can honor him by stapling the dancer's blade to the booster glaive handle. it looks and feels even more like his weapon tbh.#(the heavy attacks with Purely Cosmetic fire!!! come on now.)#<-this is now a weapon recommendation post.

carlo's inherent tragedy as a character means that if he hadn't died young he would've gone through something worse. the horrifying realization that he inherited his father's personality <3
#lies of p#geppetto is over and over mentioned and shown to be a very stubborn man.#and the little we see of carlo.... it works.... he was in fact kind of a bull-headed little brat.#and everyone knows how much parents with strong personalities ~loooooooove~ when their kids. get it from them.#i'm not ragging on carlo. the basis of personality that is inherited is not the sole defining factor in what a person is like--#--and what is developed & changed by one's experiences would make them very different people still.#THAT SAID: i do think carlo achieving his little dream of being The Best Stalker In The World WOULD put him at risk of.#going down the same path his dear old man did :^)#there's something about being at the top of your field and what being the unquestioned authority in all that pertains to it can--#--very easily make one close-minded and set in their ways. it's probably what happened with geppetto.#i mean if my timeline is right he fucked with venigni's grand covenant long before he needed to enact mass murder to resurrect his son.#which to me speaks of him considering only himself as a trustworthy authority for a long time.#the tags in these posts really are the main feature now huh. sorry about that i just like talking here better.👍its like a secret post.#anyway. LOVE YOU DEAD BOY

the thing about romeo is that he's the equivalent of those cars that have all their parts stripped bare and replaced in order to maximize their speed. absolutely no safety measures to prevent him from exploding or collapsing in on himself but he can do 0-100 kph in 2.2 seconds so hey
#geppetto invented the terminator immediately made it into a hot rod and also stapled his dead son's best friend's soul to it 👍#lies of p#i DO think its neat you can tell he was built for speed. but that's for a serious post that i might or might not make later.#not that me saying he's like a car. or a motorcycle. to me. isn't 100% serious. i mean that.

these are sooo interesting to me.... i'm not sure if i'm misremembering if she actually says it later or if it's just implied that sophia tried to reach out to other people before, but due to the nature of the petrification disease no one before p could really help her. also, considering this:
is the idea here that she tried to reach out to her friends first...?
#lies of p#also my personal headcanon is that the mystery lumacchio here is the mad donkey given his outfit's description and all#and if that line of his. you know the one. isn't a mistranslation it Does add to. sophia reaching out to people she knew in vain :)#also. also. did venigni and sophia know each other. is this also a lead up to my speculation on venigni's age.#like this does not suggest all of these people knew each other only that medoro knew them. but its easy enough to extrapolate.#tl;dr. incredible friend group. no notes

the fact laxasia is the boss who blocks your way to sophia. and they have fuck all to do with each other. the missed opportunity of it all. can you imagine if laxasia was an interesting character.
#lies of p#looking for toxic yuri and if i cannot find it i will create it.#<-who said that.#the thing about me is that the fun i have in boss fights is directly correlated to how much i give a fuck about the boss in question--#--as a character or part of the story. if some guy idgaf about is going to roadblock me for ages i will hate every moment of it.#and laxasia yeah she's the hardest boss in the game. her fight is an absolute spectacle. but i just don't care.#you think i'm going to care about simon's right hand arm. man. i don't even care about simon.

part two of that post about geppetto talking about p not inheriting carlo's memories but his personality instead: i think it's very easy to make a case on him being wrong on the personality front as well and present p and carlo as fairly different people even without the circumstances that shaped them? in fact, i feel like most people do (me included!) to one extent or another.
and honestly? it works very well for his character. geppetto is presented with his son disobeying him, and immediately goes "oh you're just like my other son who also disobeyed me", like the extent of both of their personalities is how compliant they are to him. that's consistent character writing, baby!
