Fellswap!silver (or just FSS)

Welcome, readers, to this little neat au! It follows the fell + swap trope (fellswap red, swapfell, etc.) but with a horror tone! Please stay around while we work on it.

Two people run this blog, so expect art style changes. One of the people running the account doesn’t have English as their first language, so please be respectful!

Things to know:

We do NOT support proshippers (such as Foncest, Frans, etc.)

We love and encourage fanart and writing of the characters!

You may use our characters in your fan works (as long as credits are involved and the content is not gross)

Shipping is okay as long as it’s not a proship of any kind (OC x Canon is fine, too)

Just three words: Norman. Cursed hair.

Do your thing.

Lineless art is pretty fun

#hello I'm the artist this is my sideblog- #I just wanted to say something because I liked the whole analysis in the tags so much omg #I actually- never watched season 2- #So this was mostly done by the vibes I had after the S1 finale lol #I'm glad it matches with the start of S2!! #also what you mentioned about the moment with Isabella #:') poor boy was just being forced to grow up more and more #even though he already knew a lot of stuff the fact that he had to confront it sure wasn't easy #I might have to watch S2 now lol #anyway #i just wanted to answer in a way to say thanks for liking my drawing :'D #have a nice day and stuff <3

Aaaah thank you for being inspired and taking the time to share your work with community. <3 The essence you capture in your piece is one of the many aspects of the series that appeals to me and engenders my endearment for it, and it's always nice to see that resonate with other people too.

Slight spoilers but they don’t get to ruminate on that feeling of wondrous awe at the new world they find themselves in for too long because Things™ Happen fairly quickly, but despite its many, many shortcomings, I still highly recommend watching the first three episodes of S2 for what the medium shift is able to bring to the experience, namely the soundtrack and the voices. It’s another retooling of the main theme, but “The Adventures of Ugo” alongside “The Deep Forest” and “Guidance of Minerva’s Pen” to me capture the range of inquisitive exploration born of satiating curiosity purely for the sake of it:

To awe at the grand scale of what they’re experiencing being beyond their wildest imaginations, a thrumming undercurrent of magnificence and excitement reaching grand heights tinged with an aura of the ethereal:

To that retooling of the main theme that contextualizes all of this being possible due to their shared love and affection for their family pushing them to strive for the ideal:

That they’re experiencing this alongside each other and are unified in this new adventure by this previously used melody acting as a grounding, quiet swell of affection and gratitude that’s so beautiful when you consider the transformation it’s undergone.

From Leslie’s original rendition, not yet touched by tragedy, to Isabella’s refuge of strength as a song of solitary sacrifice and survival, to being the final straw that would have sealed Ray’s fate as well as his mournful and lonely solace in what would have been his final hour (again the anime has its problems but I will never not applaud the choice to have him hum the lullaby in the dining hall before Emma comes to talk to him. The layers of that have been fucking me up since I first watched the series in 2021.) And the children collectively take on that association and transform it into a song of familial love and solidarity that refuses to perpetuate that cycle of systemic sacrifice and violence.

Replay Value’s video touches upon this in greater length for the first season,

And while I think one could argue that S2 eventually winds up relying on the love and goodwill built around this theme too much to carry a heavily truncated and butchered story, I can’t deny my personal affection for it. If that’s something that might appeal to you, I think you could get some level of enjoyment out of at least the first three episodes of season 2.

In that moment, as the sun was rising and the snow was melting, he looked like the curious child he always was. ❄️

not to be totally one track minded but for the subject rant thing. scike :3c

Hm no I���m not gonna answer this one ❤️

Okay for real I LOVE SCIKE so like. I’m gonna dump about them because I hate them so much.

I think my biggest thing with Scike is I genuinely cannot see them being together. It’s the darkest timeline. Genuinely they would not work. I think there is a potential that like. They don’t hate each other in the future they could get along in a toxic frenemies sort of way but they’re always a spin off for me a “what if” idea.

They’re fun when they’re toxic and evil and hate each other and try to kill each other and are just fss (read future starts slow guys it’s good it’s wild but it’s good definitely not shouting out the mutual that asked this) and I feel if you make them … “normal” (?) it looses everything that makes them fun. They cannot be together in a way that is healthy and makes for a happy ending. Like stated in my obligatory community reference (did you know I like community), this is the darkest timeline for them both.

I say I’m a zoke shipper because they are endgame to me. They are the realistic and “good” outcome if you ask me. But I care way more about scike and their evil shenanigans, but I cannot defend them as an endgame ship, even as a ship at all in any “good timeline” fic/au because they ruin each other too much.

Do you guys get me or am I talking too much.

So while I do enjoy scike, more than most other ships, and will defend them and all of their NORMAL shippers (by normal I mean people that don’t mischaracterise or make it creepy I’m not talking about the freaks the freaks can stay you know who you are) but I cannot rightfully say they should be together, at all in any capacity in a fic/au where you want a happy ending.

If you do choose to include scike in your “normal” fic with a happy ending where they move on or stay together this is the only possible outcome.

What do you think is in store for Rosalind longterm, after she’s no longer president (however that happens)? Your latest snippet made me curious :3

I have Thoughts ™️ about post-presidency Ros, so thank you @irrigone for indulging them! ETA: the snippet referenced in the ask

Rosalind knows all kinds of things about all kinds of people and corps that she shouldn’t from all of Songbird’s time beyond the Blackwall, and after she leaves office, it’s only a matter of time before possession of those secrets becomes dangerous.

We don’t know who her enemies at Militech are/were. While the official story is that she left CEO to run for president, it’s possible that is just an excuse and she was actually ousted, but was still useful enough to run Militech’s “government arm”. So she’s already got enemies at Militech, but either they are outnumbered by her supporters as Militech keeps funding her campaign, or they have no viable alternative which is why they continue to fund her campaign.

Regardless of how Rosalind leaves office — scandal whenever news breaks about her and Songbird and the Blackwall; Militech pulling support; or legitimate election loss by a challenger — because of all the things she knows and her powerful enemies, she will be a target.  Someone will always be looking for her. She might be due lifetime protection from the Secret Service like the real world US government provides, but what good is government protection if the entity behind that protection wants her dead?

In the MILFguard server @awwwokay recently said post-presidency Ros is either in a jail cell or living off the grid, and I agree with that statement fully.

After she leaves office, she will retire to the family estate in New England. We don’t know much about her family except that its wealthy and influential, and rumored to be descendants of the Mayflower. Within a few months, she will be invited to be an ambassador for the new administration to help with some outreach program, and suddenly she will become a distinguished, long-term guest of the NUSA. She would never be officially charged with anything or even told she was being taken into custody. They might pretend it’s for her own benefit, but it’s because she knows too much and can’t be trusted not to use information that could harm the country or Militech, even though I don’t think she would do either except to “save them from themselves”.

If she’s not in custody, she’ll be living the quiet life somewhere. Someone in the server once mentioned the idea of Ros faking her death to get away from everything, and I think that’s perfect in this scenario. Rather than becoming a ward of the state, she would disappear. Because her information isn't just limited to Militech, she would be wearing a lot of different targets, from corpos, governments, and private individuals alike. As I mentioned before, she would receive lifetime Secret Service protection but how can she trust them? Anyone she hasn’t personally vetted would be suspect; hell, even the ones she did hire herself could still be turned. Loyalty in the Cyberpunk world is extremely expensive and very hard to come by. 

Faking her death would be a good way to buy herself some time. It would require people she trusts literally with her life, and I could see her put the plan into motion before she left office. She would still have contacts at that point, and could handpick FIA and FSS agents who are loyal. She would also split the plan up so that no one one person knows what she’s doing. 

I personally love the image of Rosalind as HRC after the 2016 elections, hiking in the woods with people running into her, except it’s somewhere far away from New England and she’s like a cryptid — people say they saw her somewhere but by the time FIA agents arrive they might find witnesses who saw a woman who looked like the former president, but never any clues as to her location.

Someone asked when I'll have a Ros-Mitch-Val OT3 AU. My reaction:

My immediate thought was how the hell do I get Mitch and Ros in a room together? But like all brainworms of hearty stock, it found a little fold in my brain and made itself at home. If I were to have an OT3 AU, it would involve be post-Star ending with Val hearing news of Rosalind's death and not believing it and setting out to find out for herself with Mitch in tow, then once she tracks Rosalind down, convincing her to join a nomad family. From her time in the Marines, I think Ros could adapt quickly to life as a nomad, and the fractured Net could help keep her hidden from people searching for her.

Stealing @just-like-playing-tag's ship chart with a few tweaks but my general leanings for the trio

[fullscoreshenanigans]

kjfsfdh always wild he was willing to die for both of them why would he hate them??? lkfjdsjflk

I’ve yet to stumble across a fic where jealousy features a major role for them

can’t properly link this back to @thedoodlenoodlesuniverse since they’ve deleted but like; this is basically it lol (the jealousy-done-well fic does sound interesting though, assuming it still ends with them together after maturely navigating it)

HOLY SHIT THAT VINO COMIC!!! i know nothing about TPN insta that is;;;truly perfect; blessed 🧡🤍🖤🙏 ty for sharing it

Emma: omg you guys are both geniuses why are you so stupid abt this 😭💔

but yeah very much on the same wavelength; last to know, first to go (for it) lol for her it just seems so obvious and right (she wouldn’t pursue it if she didn’t overwhelmingly believe the feeling was mutual) that once it clicks, it’s hard to even conceptualize why there’d be any roadblocks to it. and the pushy bit is great for being reminiscent of their convo in chapter 4/S1e02; adore the respectful tenacity and confidence. 🧡🧡

ooo definitely ((so what am I defending now?) by postcanons/@salsae​ the GOAT Norray-focused NER fic; it just flows so naturally,,,fic writing goals). I also have an idea for this set pre-bunker raid. idk if it’s actually viable but maybe this will finally prompt me to write an outline lol

Bit of a delay but do you have any favorite or disliked tropes for NER?

mmmm idk if it counts as tropes but i Hate the fics where ray just. deadass dislikes emma and norman?? like even his internal monologue is just Mean😭 also the jealousy trope. ive only ever read One fic that handled that well w them tbh. i just cant see Any of them being jealous. they care too much about eachother- ray would w out a doubt rather just norman and emma be together if that makes them happy than none of them be together at all. and its the same for emma and norman.

i really like the "ray has known his feelings since he was a kid" trope. is that a trope? idk but its my religion 🫶🏻 ray knew first, norman knew he liked emma from the start, but i think he wouldnt realize his feelings for ray until they are re-united. this mini comic from @/vinokurin_purin's insta lives in my mind rent free and is exactly how i see that going. emma would find out last bc- like you always say- she would not hesitate to initiate that relationship LMAO. i really enjoy when people just write them as really touchy and sweet bc thats My love language so im projecting a bit but. oh well. i also enjoy when emma is written as a bit pushy if its done right KDBDKE shes so funny in the fics where shes like. trust me bro. youre in love with me. come to this realization🔫😐

this definitely isnt a trope but i loveeee stories that focus on like ray/emma norman/emma norman/ray but still references them as All together iykwim. like fics abt ray and emma in the shelter? the two years between ray and norman finding emma? GOOD FOOD🙏🏻🙏🏻

Content Creator Metaphor teilt sein optimales Loadout für den schnellen und tödlichen FSS Hurricane, das neue Meta in Season 2 Reloaded FSS-X7 Lauf für erhöhte Geschoss-Geschwindigkeit und Schadensreichweite 5.7x28mm Overpressure +P für zusätzliches Flinchen beim Ziel Demo Quicksilver Schaft für verbesserte Mobilität XTEN Griff für erhöhte Sprint-Geschwindigkeit und schnelleres Zielen FTAC Grimline Laser für verbesserte Rückstoßkontrolle und Hüftfeuer-Genauigkeit Metaphors FSS Hurricane Loadout im Detail Der bekannte Warzone 2 Content Creator Metaphor hat sein neues Meta-Loadout für den FSS Hurricane in Season 2 Reloaded präsentiert und zeigt, wie diese Waffe effizient als Sniper-Unterstützung verwendet werden kann. Laut Metaphor ist der FSS Hurricane "gut in allem" und zeichnet sich durch eine hervorragende Magazingröße aus. Im Fokus des Loadouts stehen: FSS-X7 Lauf: Erhöht die Geschoss-Geschwindigkeit und Schadensreichweite und macht den FSS Hurricane zu einer idealen Waffe über größere Entfernungen. 5.7x28mm Overpressure +P: Verursacht ein starkes Flinchen beim getroffenen Ziel, was die Genauigkeit des Gegners reduziert. Demo Quicksilver Schaft: Verbesserte Mobilität ermöglicht dem Spieler, sich schneller in den Kämpfen und über das Schlachtfeld zu bewegen. XTEN Griff: Erhöht die Sprint-Geschwindigkeit und verkürzt die Zeit zum Zielen, was besonders wichtig ist, wenn man als Sniper unterstützend agiert. FTAC Grimline Laser: Erhöht sowohl die Rückstoßkontrolle als auch die Hüftfeuer-Genauigkeit, wodurch die FSS Hurricane vielseitiger und leistungsfähiger wird. https://youtu.be/1lnD-tN89uI Zukunft des FSS Hurricane und Warzone 2 Es ist noch zu früh, um sicher zu sagen, ob das FSS Hurricane Loadout von Metaphor das Meta für lange Zeit dominieren wird, aber bisher scheint es eine ausgezeichnete Wahl für diejenigen zu sein, die eine effektive Sniper-Unterstützung suchen. Es bleibt abzuwarten, wie die Entwickler auf die sich entwickelnde Meta reagieren und ob sie möglicherweise Anpassungen vornehmen, um das Waffen-Ökosystem auszubalancieren. Fazit Zusammenfassend bietet Metaphors FSS Hurricane Loadout in Warzone 2 eine hervorragende Möglichkeit für Spieler, als Sniper-Unterstützung auf dem Schlachtfeld zu glänzen. Die Vielseitigkeit, Mobilität und tödliche Effizienz dieser Set-Kombination sind der Schlüssel für das neue Meta in Season 2 Reloaded. Obwohl die Zukunft dieser Waffe noch ungewiss ist, sollten Spieler in der Zwischenzeit versuchen, ihre Fähigkeiten mit dem FSS Hurricane zu perfektionieren, um das volle Potenzial dieses beeindruckenden Loadouts auszuschöpfen.

#I see him as the doing-laundry guy #folding every single piece of clothing to perfection while his mind does the most exciting things #(same with Ray and cooking and Emma with cleaning. but pshhht!) (via @officersnickers)

100% behind Norman being the main one to handle laundry duties ever since listening to one of the anime-original sound dramas and having this exchange come up:

Krone: When doing laundry, different types of personalities come out…I wonder how [Norman] dries clothes…ah~ so gentle, he dries the clothes very neatly~ The style of drying, the spacing between the clothes, it looks beautiful! This way, the wind flows into clothes properly, and the sunlight is shared uniformly. An efficient way of drying clothes. Good job! Gilda: Norman's way of doing laundry is also perfect. Don: A genius is a genius no matter what he does, huh? Norman: It's nothing like that! I just like doing laundry. The snowy white clothes being blown by the breeze is a sight I really love. That's why I try to be gentle when hanging the laundry.

Emma and Ray help of course, just like they all help with cleaning and, if need be, step up for cooking, though it usually falls to Ray due to personal interest and because it's part of his love language. Likewise, by default laundry falls to Norman, though it's more for how it keeps him moving (as the least athletically inclined of the three, it fits his speed more). For Emma, I feel like she'd be in charge of shopping.

Norman on a day off in post canon would probably just go crazy for a while and work anyway. If Emma takes his laptop or whatever? Housework.

Then he'll crash to bed and sleep
