TELL ME MORE ABT VERA AND THE DISTORTION STUFF PLS

:) :) :) :) <- vera sleeper agents activated

so her distortion was originally not one, but i sort of shaped it into one over time, since she distorts others and is the voice of distortion in the rp. its about being the magical girl who saves the world, specifically saving her friends from the timeloop/suffering in general.

so vera joined the facility because her family/friends/etc was like "damn you suck! bye" and she was like "W. HUH?????" and wanted to spite them for leaving her. once she learned of the timeloops on d10, shes like "im gonna fix this!". but as time goes on and everything gets worse, she gets more stressed about trying to fix it before everyone just loses it and they cant be saved. so from the stress, vera falls really hard into a magical girl persona, trying to be likeable and everyones friend (both so they dont lose it and so she isnt abandoned).

ironically vera ended up losing it the most and kinda loses herself to the magical girl thing, and ends up coming to the conclusion that she will save the world and all her friends with her magical girl powers. you can only be so sane after seeing your friends die over and over (and then watching utter chaos ensue on d46-49 as everyone dies and doesnt come back, as everything falls apart and you cant do anything, the world is laughing in your face, everyone is.)

so on d50 she distorts! she brings back her dead friends, steals the seed of light for her own power, and at the same time owen realizes about the timeloops and gets hit in the face with so so many memories he never knew he had. vera decides to leave him behind, which is because when she asked if he wanted to join her, he didn't respond, so she was like "ok bye have fun!" (he was not having fun)

ok finally the distortion itself. it has no name rn over than "the light" but im totally giving it a good name one day. veras the leader of it all, with tons of blind followers who totally agree with her. theyre all distorted, but their distortions have been hidden under light-y versions of themselves. everyone whos a part of the light basically has time stopped for them - they dont age or change at all. they also cant see things negatively/feel negativity, being only happy or (at worst) neutral. their suffering has totally stopped.

ofc this has consequences. everyones basically stuck in denial/ignorance of any suffering. everything vera does ends up being for her own goals, so all her followers arent really people anymore. she goes around entirely unknowing of all the suffering shes caused, and over time uses her own followers to save herself

in l corp, vera gets stressed about all of her deaths catching up to her, which manifests in the distortion - veras under her lighty shell, but shes also rotting, so she reverses it with the life of her followers. in the final battle against her she literally kills tons of people to bring herself to good health

soo distorted!veras personality is way too happy. shes basically manic half the time, doing random impulsive things and distorting people for no reason and ditching them when they get aggressive/sad/etc. she calls everyone her friends and family. when anything negative is presented to her, especially relating to her past, shell either twist it into positiveness or go totally silent with a blank stare. and then snap right back to her happy self :)

shes meant to be so fast its confusing/disorienting, which often works on people shes trying to pull into her cult thing. they get so confused they just cant do anything, give up, or just distort on their own.

heres some recent art of her :D

also some songs that fit her:

malks core suppression just. fits her. it gives me the vibe of something being Off and Wrong and yeah thats how it is with her in the final battle (also would just fit like any vera tbh) also it has breakcore and is very fast. which also fits!

apalling past memories seen through rose-tinted glasses says basically everything in the name lol

awake is the same kind of thing as past memories, simple piano stuff. that kind of song tends to fit her. this one also gets fucked up at the end but in a different way that i really like. like this is her as a whole. also its pretty earstrainy so be warned

the toy box! a really good song that happens to be about denial and growing up (also some stuff about identity issues). fits both vera and her distortion a lot

alkali underachiever, which i think is about standing up in the face of hardship and going on despite bad things. i dont remember the lyrics too well but i think it has "please dont hate me" in them and damn if a happy song with that in it isnt her

im. normal about my ocs. as you can see (i could literally say more but this is so long)

on that note, i think that people who interpret Oleana's Garbodor as just symbolic of the villainy/toxic personality/whatever hidden beneath Oleana's outward beauty aren't.....wrong exactly? like maybe they are right. but also i do think they are rude. toward Garbodor. :(

True Oleana Fans know that Oleana's Garbodor is just indicative of how Oleana is obsessed with maintaining her outward appearance of a prim, proper, and ruthless businesswoman but inwardly she's kind of a sweetheart who really does care a lot. TOO MUCH in fact. Garbodor is her BABY okay.......and her other, more "beautiful" and "feminine" Pokemon are more just respected business partners to her so she can continue keeping her beloved giant trash monster around without either of them being hassled for it. and that's that on that.

In the end, it will always return to that day.

Gazing at the laundry hanging in the sun, having a home-cooked meal, and someone to share it with.
