What are your main inspirations when writing your stories?
Since I've only just sorted out how tags work, this could very well be the first people hear of my writing project. If that is the case, hello there! I don't want to be taken seriously at all, and my work is completely open to the public domain, and to public forum of critique, it's why I'm here. I don't want to be arrogant and say that I get my writing from a set list of places, I'm sure i've subconsciously drawn on a lot of things that have just invaded my brain and stayed there. For this project, my biggest influences have just been the stuff I've been indulging in while writing. A lot of the hallucinatory stuff with the automaton's memories came from Miracle Musical's Hawaii Pt: II, especially when touching on themes of insanity.
Furthermore, a lot of the emotion i'm trying to portray within the automaton comes from Cowboy Beebop, obviously Spike Spiegel in that show, but also the show's governing philosophy of the past in general, lingering on it, and the danger that comes from that. Linking this to that show's influences, the automaton is almost certainly inspired by the "man with no name" type western tropes of a soft-spoken cowboy lawmaker, and i plan to touch on this and gently lampshade it in my next short story.
It's also just been a weird period in my life, so a lot of stuff about psychology and psychoanalysis has been creeping into my vocabulary (you might notice if you read my stories that I rely on the word "subconscious" as a crutch waaaaay too much) which has driven a lot of the analysis within the work of the automaton's inner workings- I plan to explore it with a lot less flowery language as I have been doing in the next part, not because I don't think the flowery language has it's place, it most certainly does, and the automaton viewing his own brain with this verbose poetry is something worth pointing out, but there is still a cold diagnosis to be displayed here, and this won't be the last time I write about the automaton's brain "acting up". I can't lie, I love drama and theatre studies, so expect a lot more allusions to greek tragedies as this goes on- because ultimately, Aristotelian unities aside, the story of the automaton as I tell it is deeply tragic.
My initial prompt with this writing project was a sort of light deconstruction of Garth Ennisean and Alan Moorean anti-heroes; while I love and enjoy stories like the boys, punisher and watchmen, I sometimes get the impression that while trying to build characters that are morally grey and have more than 2 dimensions, writers can sometimes fall into the traps of creating irredeemable monsters that we are still supposed to follow and relate to. Ennis and Moore both handled it very well, but writing has been in an era of people trying to emulate them, and make comics "edgy". So, I wanted to contrast this by creating a character who started out as an archetypal "anti-hero", but who would, over the course of a full story, develop into a genuine person with connections, and not just be someone living for one purpose, in the case of the automaton, his revenge. Expect that sort of theme to carry on.
Finally, most of the idea for the automaton's amnesia started with Disco Elysium. Disco has always been for me a stand-out story, and as well as the intense dystopian worldbuilding, I like to think that a lot of that game's central ideology can be seen bearing it's head in my writing- while my story is still in it's infancy, I am a committed supporter of the ideas Disco is trying to get across, without naming it directly. Disco, Cowboy Bebop and Hawaii Pt: II are all for me stories that I use as influence purely because they focus entirely on the past, and I want my story to generally move towards the direction of the moral being that the past doesn't define us. The automaton doesn't have to be Harvey Moore, but he also doesn't have to reject that person entirely. Life, memories and whatever state of existence we find ourselves in is entirely dependant on what we make of it. There is always room for improvement. Nobody has to stay an anti-hero.
Thank you if you've stayed through my ramblings. I hope if you find my stories you find them as enjoyable to read as I find them to make. I don't particularly mind if you even like them, just the knowledge that someone can see what I enjoy doing and have an opinion is enough to show to me that there's a good reason to keep going.
Regrettably, this answer is longer than my last story. Don't worry, I'm capping my next one at two-thousand words minimum. I've been slacking on length.

Video
youtube
THIS was the video that got me into hawaii pt. ii back in late 2012 / early 2013, and from there i got into tally hall proper
so like. the original video is by urnam7. idk if they’ve changed their internet name since then but they went by urnam7 at the time. these are their OCs and they were going to make a comic for it (which i spent YEARS sooo looking forward to, entirely bc of this video, but i dont think a comic has ever happened LOL)
so anyway i saw this video and i was like WOWW THIS IS SO COOL and i just rewatched it constantly at the ripe old age of Just Turned Eleven. but then like, i think literally like 3 days after it was uploaded, it got taken down for copyright because of the music. so urnam reuploaded it without sound which i dont blame them, bc they put a lot of work into it, but then someone else reuploaded it with the song re-added in, and for some reason that reupload lasted a little while longer. so i was listening to that reupload for about another week before i personally bought hawaii pt. ii
and then like a week later im pretty sure that’s when the weird copyright blackout happened. my friend irl, who i got to listen to this album, was unable to buy it off itunes because it was taken off like literally the day before, and then the like THREE videos on youtube that had the mind electric in them at the time were taken down. somehow that original reupload with the audio put back in lasted slightly longer than the other videos, like maybe a month, before it too was taken down
and then of course late 2014 / 2015, the weird blackout stopped and the songs were officially uploaded to youtube, and now people can actually have these songs in their videos, so i guess ANOTHER person reuploaded this video with the song in it in 2018 so .yeah
also i was a huge fan of urnam7 back in the day entirely because of their warrior cats content so . yes i owe it to warrior cats that i know about tally hall and musical miracle LOL
#AND ALSO . i still dont know if its miracle musical or musical miracle#bc yeah back in the day im pretty sure me and my friend put it thru google translate and it was miracle musical#and bc of the weird blackout shit we literally couldnt find anything else about it except google translating it#then yeah 2015 happened. it got semi-popular#eerybody started saying musical miracle instead and it was like.. ok ... perhaps google translate was wrong#BUT NOW IM SEEING MORE PEOPLE SAYING MIRACLE MUSICAL AGAIN AND ITS LIKE.. WHAT IS THE TRUTH.........#WHICH ONE IS IT... IM LOSING MY MIND#so if u ever notice that im inconsistent with it then like. thats why LOL#brot posts#anyway idk if urnam7 even has muted version up anymore bc i cant find it :(#I REMEMBER there was another animatic for the mind electric but idk if it was taken down in the blackout or if its just#being swamped by more recent results from over the years#i explicitly remember the thumbnail LOL#i feel like that also maybe lasted a little bit longer into the blackout but i guess it mightve also eventually vanished
