Segment in a horror game where you explore a haunted house in which people have gone missing. The music that plays here isn't like an ambient track or only a sad creepy violin, but consisting of several instruments, including soft vocals harmonizing and a slow percussion instrument of some sort, repeating roughly the same note every second. As you explore the house, no big scares happen, maybe a sudden rat or some creepy imagery scratched into a wall. You may find newspaper articles about the house, testimonies saying they've heard footsteps from inside the house. But you hear no such thing, only the music.

After a while, so slowly you might not realise at first, instruments in the track begin to fade away, until only the percussion remains with its slow, repeated thumping. You may begin to think, when isolated like this, it sounds very similar to footsteps, when-

The idea of MC 'working' for Skull is sweet but I can imagine her trying to at least do something. Picturing her serving Skull tea and a lunch she prepared him because damn it, she's earning her paychecks! And Skull is just completely enamored because his wifey made him food and she's so pretty and he's just heart eyed.

I love the thought of Mc being on a mission to secretly do chores behind Skull's back. She finds out he's fallen asleep in his chair, and she immediately sneaks out of the room to run downstairs into the servant quarters and help with whatever they're doing. They often have an apron waiting for her so she can get straight to work. If Skull discovers she's disappeared from the room (she's well-trained in moving silently around a big house) the first place he checks is the kitchens.

I think that even well into their marriage, when she's the lady of many beautiful houses and technically part of the aristocracy, Mc still wouldn't be able to shake off the need to assist the workers hands-on whenever she can. Sorting linens, helping during laundry day, clearing out the fire coals herself in the early morning because her body is still trained to wake up with the sun. She carries a rag in her pocket, and quickly polishes silverware or tabletops when she's got a passing moment. Her new life is comfortable... she's not used to comfortable.

She still has nightmares that she's in trouble for falling behind on her chores. She'll wake up in the middle of the night and start dressing herself in a teary panic, mumbling incoherently about needing to go scrub the pantry stairs before the housekeeper wakes up. Skull, used to nightmares of his own, is very good at gently shepherding her back to bed.

Hi, frat boy!

i love him

Don't know if this hc makes sense or not but I feel like a few kids of the aphrodite cabin would probably be like one of those early morning people because of their extensive skincare routine. Like these bitches really be up at 5am in the morning washing their face and everything. Basically those skincare obsessed girlies.

cw: unbeta'd rambling once more, all mistakes are mine. vague references to true crime content, nothing graphic. just thinking of what would discomfort the charas, im basically throwing darts 🥴

i hc'd that kalim doesnt really get scared by ghosts and urban legends and to add onto that: i think kalim would be icked out by people with an interest in true crime.

like, the content hits uncomfortably close to his own encounters and some people frankly take a bit too much pleasure in going through all the gory details - wait, you're telling him there are people who fall asleep while listening to true crime podcasts?! on that note, some psychological thrillers (especially the 'adapted from true events' kind, compared to the 'dystopic social commentary' ones) would also fit into this category - just being plain uncomfortable to sit through, a movie/podcast/tv experience making him sick to his stomach.

i just think that kalim doesn't get the appeal at all, no matter the explanation. if someone tried to show him a few cases, he'd just be sitting in uncomfy silence.

(on the flipside, i think jamil hates horror movies with an abundance of jumpscares compared to slashers. he has an uncanny sense foretelling when they're gonna happen, but he still flinches during the actual jumpscare. bonus points if a fakeout is good, u get to see his soul jump out of his body twice.

on the topic of true crime, jamil just doesn't vibe with it, especially when it's not well-researched and/or poorly handled in its delivery. and like, he's already gotten the fearmongering-type of warnings* from the adults in his life plenty of times. he doesn't want to see it packaged in a spooky, edgy, internet detective-way, but he's more rational? understanding? of its appeal to others.)

Description

If an author writes a book without descriptions about the characters cause it's in first person and the main character already knows everyone in the cast and Chase goes into the book. Two scenarios come to mind. First: they just look like mannequins. Second: the keys uses the user's memories to use for the characters. The first one would be creepy but the second one, oh boy. Chase wake up from the bed confused and startled until he remembers the book start with him going to school. He starts brushing his teeth until he hears a voice that shouldn't be there. He finish the morning routine The voice yelled to his character "Hey sweetheart, if you don't come down faster, you're going to be late." Chase walks down and suddenly freezes. His face turn pale as if he saw a ghost. To be fair, his deceased dad counts as one. His mind began racing this thoughts- Why is he here, What do I, Is he real. His dad begun talking "Charlie, are you okay?" Chase starting bawling and hugging him. "Dad, I thought I never hear you say that again." "Charlie, did you have a nightmare." His dad began embracing and patting him. Another person spoke. "Honey, hurry up and eat breakfast." Chase turn around to see a healthy version of his mom. "Mom, you're actually in good shape." "Charlie, why wouldn't I." His mom smiles at him. It was a moment that Chase would never forget. His dead dad and sick mom talking and laughing with him. After so many years, both of his parents was with him.

Welp.

I've found Mr. Romantic.

I think he has seen better days. RIP.

That's a cool ass hat, though. Can I borrow it?

Hmmm.

Rome does look pretty good with that dope hat (probably because I made him bard-like and bards always have dope hats), but I don't think I'll add it to his main design. I do like it, though. However, I think I went overboard on the design of it. Looking back, it's not nearly as complicated. I don't even think it has a feather. Oops...

One would think that Smitten would have no reason to enter Spooky's mansion. (Like, what? A trivial prize for a thousand-room expedition? I've better things to do.) But rest assured. He doesn't have just one reason. Depending on what game mode you play, he can have three to seven reasons to enter.

Here are the reasons:

There they are! Peak beauty!

I mostly wanted to see if I could sketch them, and this was a pretty good excuse to do so.

I'm warming up to this crossover idea, but I gotta put it on the back burner. I need to finish the voices. Ack.

Revisited my old vld au (i blame @jankwritten) and remade my old character sheets about it. tweaked some things, struggled to remember what the hell all my notes were about from like 5 years ago, etc etc. Much happier with the set-up now honestly.

Stars vs circles indicate designated paladin/main pilot of that lion. Or castle in the castle's case.

feel free to ask about it cause I have a lot of random notes jotted down.

I’m hearing people joking about putting My Shot or something into the lotus casino scene. No, no, no my friends. We are thinking too small:

Put “The Club” from In The Heights.
