Someone, sometime after Odysseus is back home in Ithaca:

Bro, you've cheated on Penelope :( That's not cool

Odysseus, raising his eyebrows:

....I've lead Agamemnon's daughter to the sacrificial altar, i killed Palamedes, I almost killed Diomedes, I made teen Achilles fight for us as well as his teen son, I left Philoctetes behind and then stole from him, I stole a statue from Athena from INSIDE troy, I convinced the whole army to keep fighting against troy, I beat up a guy who didn't like us, Ajax killed himself because of me, I sacked Troy and Ismarus, I maimed a cyclops, I lied to every person I've ever met at least ONCE, and killed the 108 suitors of my wife, I'm sure I forgot something, and that is your only complaint? *gets flashbacks to hermes telling him not to refuse Circe and the seven years spent at Ogygia's beach crying in Calypsos grasp* ....sure, add it on to the list *tired sigh*

(Explore) Do you have any headcanons for Voice of the Cheated?

♡. ask game

anon dearie ilysm i'm sorry it's been 2 whole months </3 i immediately began typing this post out as soon as i received it, but then not only did i forget to finish it, but practically all of the headcanons i wrote had to be trashed because they related to cheated's role but he is no longer a pirate!!! buddy got his costume changed and i am not telling you what it is ♡♡

but yes yes i have a couple headcanons! in no particular order:

01. my cheated has a tail for Reasons™ and it is a great source of misfortune of him. he already has a lousy poker face, but even if he manages to keep it together, anyone can easily intuit how he's feeling from its swaying or thumping. not to mention how often people step on it (most accidentally, cold and opportunist not accidentally)

02. my voice's "true" form are mirror shards while their physical bodies are something akin to homuculi/puppets. if harmed beyond a certain threshold then the affected body part will shatter completely rather than simply bleed out. normally, if the shard is healthy, then reverting back to shard form will reverse the injury, but cheated's shard is so ridiculously pure that shattered parts will mend on their own! even when he fully shatters, which is relatively easy for him to do, it only takes a half-hour to recover, as opposed to the days or weeks that others may need.

this is also a great source of misfortune for him ♡ according to razor this makes him the perfect little pin-cushion. the glass shattering makes such a pretty, addictive noise and then woo he's right back to do it again. sure, it's fun to battle stubborn, but it takes him forever to shatter, and then the cooldown can take a month. scam! rip-off! her own little guy is the way better deal!

03. speaking of glass shards: cheated and flinching are brother and sister! all of the voices came from the same mirror, but cheated's shard cracked twice, first forming him and then flinching. while the demo voices remained dormant throughout the game, most of cheated's personality is unconsciously founded in complementing and protecting his sister. whereas flinching would hesitate to shoot a gun, cheated would snatch it from her grasp to fire immediately -- and then she watches in horror as the bullet ricochets off a pipe and hits him square in the knee. chichi twins ♡♡

04. cheated is a stiff in that he doesn't drink or smoke (his suffering will be done raw, thank you), but he absolutely adores gambling. he will swear up and down that he can stop at any time, and he doesn't even like it that much, yet he'll make a beeline for the nearest slot machine and have to be wrestled out of the chair. please, he can't just leave now, he's already sunk so much money into this, please just one more pull--

05. contrary to his appearance (and princess), cheated likes cute things! he's a bit shy about expressing his interest in coquette stuff like ribbons and makeup, but he's very open about caring for the innocent and helpless. the type to leave food out for strays and tries (keyword: tries) not to swear infront of kids. would love for him to team up with damsel for game night.

(kills me that he wouldn't want to wear "girl stuff" since he thinks the other voices pull it off better. everytime i draw cheated i think he would make for such a beautiful woman. i need opportunist to invite him to a drag bar and change his life.)

since it's tangentially connected, i'm ending this off with my favorite headcanon: cheated adores sharks and sleeps with a big shark plush he won at a carnival, whom he has named cap'n crunch ♡

Transcript:

Mai!Cheated: hold still

EG!Cheated: !

*Healing noises`

EG!Cheated: how did you do that?

Mai!Cheated: don't worry. It won't last but it will hold for a few days...

[neverpathia]

fuck you, I like you [un-cheateds my cheated]

YEAH. THIS IS THE SAME GUY AS THIS.

RAZOR. RAZOR WHEN I GET YOU WHEN I FUCKING GET YOU-

at this point I don't know if cheated or thorn is the wife in the relationship. cheathorn yuri fuck it

also you might be wondering why his wings are open here when I don't normally draw the voices like that. well the thing about the right eye being covered is kinda meant to symbolise how their perspectives are always limited by what they are. the wings are shaped in relation to the voices' beings and their beliefs, right? and it is this very thing that clouds their judgement, and prevents them from seeing what is truly right. in the end they can only see what's left behind for them, so their left eyes remain visible.

but 1. I wanted to show off cheated's freaky ass eye socket

2. he's not 'cheated' yet there. he's just a dude.

[prompt-master]

Obsessed with this guy who is just making a sphere with all three projected views separately pulled up

[chealinks]

thanks to the wonderful @spirit-fingers22 for pointing out that I had my dishes mixed in my head lol. My bad y’all this was made in 10minutes at 5am so sincerely apologizing bcos it’s lowkey embarrassing I messed that up 😭

[tai-jansfw]

cheated, with the luck he has, going to see smitten just as the latter has started his "i gotta start a family" arc and breeding the shit out of cheated until he gets pregnant (cheated does not have the proper insides for pregnancy. this does not deter the smitten)

[fuckjohncalvin]

I think cheated one day noticed that hunted was the only one whose ideas actually kept them alive and that’s when he started crushing hard

[jk1spring]

chea is going to a festival so she got dressed up!

[border-collie]

You can ask for dog food brand suggestions on the cheaper side and people will still suggest dog food that is 50 bucks for twenty pounds

[pareidolla]

hes only the least sexy voice if youre a coward

see anon i was about to genuinely question which voice you could possibly find cheated hotter than but then contrarian beamed into my mind clear as a sunny day. you're right. i recend my previous statement.

and that isn't to say chea isn't attractive! it's just that he reminds me of my little brother so i'm sure you can see my dilemma here-

one might expect me, the teenage lesbian from the South who is likely on the autism spectrum and is physically very tiny and also very impulsive, to find Charlie the most relatable out of all of my characters

but you would be wrong. I love Charlie dearly. but it’s gotta be the 6’0” creole drag queen and part-time stripper from Southern California. god he’s just like me fr
