I'm putting N and Doll in a time loop AU.

And by which I mean N finds out he's in a time loop and Doll is kinda forced to deal with that because she is the only other person even remotely aware there's a time loop situation going on.

Here's the kicker, though.

It only resets whenever N dies.

It does not restart when Doll dies.

Sure, Doll is somehow connected to it and will taken back to the start with her memories of the last loop, but she is not able to restart the loop herself. She will come back to life alongside of N when it restarts, though it may impact her mental health in some way.

When the loop resets, N always wakes up where he found himself on after getting bootlooped. I did not mean to connect these events; I just didn't want to send N back too far. However, I will admit it's kind of an interesting way to get stuck in a time loop.

Sadly, N and Doll eventually realize that certain events are crucial to progressing forward, so they must play out similarly every single time. If they change too much, it will result in catastrophe and inevitably restart the loop.

N only finds this out when he attempts to save V at the elevator, leading to the very first instances of the time loop restarting. Unfortunately, this does mean N cannot rescue V without putting an end to the loop, and Doll refuses to try in case that ruins it more.

Neither of them are sure why Uzi isn't connected to the loops. She's bit of a unpredictable variable, since her responses or reactions can be drastically different no matter how safe N or Doll play it, but she is NOT aware of the loops. Nori and The Solver are very similar cases.

(I'm naming this the "Double Time Loop AU," after the fact there are two drones stuck in a time loop they're aware of... and also because double time is a thing and it felt clever in a way.)

in a way. In a very subtle way. Color is deku coded

god. THIS IS IN NO WAY VOICED but i love his enthusiasm in english and all but THE SOFTNESS ITS ALWAYS THE SOFTNESS OF HIS VOICE IN JP HERE THAT WOULD ALWAYS SEND ME STRAIGHT INTO THE SUN. he is literally the best im choking on my blood..... the way he would laugh, he would encourage you of course, he would already sound triumphant...he sounds so sure and joyous!!!!! his voice, almost like a thunderous applause... to your struggle, to your wishes, to your desires, to your victory, to your humanity and then...

his voice lowers to an octave- to almost, a hushed whisper. the atmosphere turns quiet in contrast to the noise that had breached your heart.

the shadow that guards your soul stands before you, and stretches a hand out, presenting you to the world as the one and true victor in this battle.

yes, to you, alone.

I know. I know. If it is you, whose soul is already a champion in my eyes, dazzling and brilliant, you can achieve anything and everything you could ever want.

For absolutely no reason whatsoever, I feel like we should talk about Limbo. Because it’s a interesting topic with lots of space for theories and perhaps this will help us come back to some common ground of discussion, and be an open enough topic to allow everyone, whether someone who just joined the fandom or has been here for years, to hopefully feel safe and welcome enough to join in and share their thoughts and opinions. Go ahead and use the tag #dsmp limbo so I can see your thoughts, there is no right or wrong answer here.

To start off the discussion, we know the time dilation based on what Wilbur has said is about 30/1 - meaning every 1 second is 30 seconds in limbo, every 2 minutes is 1 hour in limbo, every 48 minutes is 1 day in limbo, every 1 day is a about 1 month in limbo and so on just to give you perspective. We also know based on both what happens in the finale and by what Dream says in the finale, that Limbo changes based on how you die and the circumstances around your death.

Now here are my thoughts at the moment on the matter. While a lot of times I see Limbo in fanfics more personalized to the person killed, one theory I came up with to explain Limbo is that it is actually is more connected to the situation around the death and killer/death.

For example, Schlatt died of a stroke and his limbo then becomes a gym, themeing off the fact of becoming healthy and fit something he wasn’t in life. That lead to his nation being taken over and him not being physically capable to stop it as well as him dying to a stroke, which we are encouraged to believe is caused by his alcoholism.

But I feel like perhaps Schlatt’s is the easiest to connect, Wilbur’s on the other hand is a little weirder. But I think the train station is actually connected to Philza having just arrived, so the relation to travel. Trains are often kept on a schedule to be on time and Philza’s appearance is just in time to kill Wilbur, but too late to stop him from pushing the button.

Mexican Dream’s limbo then reflects more of Dream than of Mexican Dream. With an empty, unfinished nation not unlike how empty and isolated Dream likely felt, as well as angry about nations for being the cause.

This theory becomes a little stronger when looking at Tommy’s 1st Limbo being an existence of basically nothing. And I think this reflects how Dream kinda has nothing at this point. Also relating to how Tommy killed the cat (and am I miss remembering that he also burned his clock?) the only thing(s) Dream had left. It could alternatively relate to an empty stomach adding an element from his death being from the potato.

Rambo’s limbo then connects to Sam for a few reasons, one I think Sam felt very alone in his efforts to keep Dream locked up. Like only he could do it and no one was helping him. It is also similar in the fact that Sam felt so cornered and trapped like killing Ranboo was the only thing he could do, similar to how one would feel stuck on a tiny island surrounded by water that burns. It’s also interesting since for Ranboo, the island is also inescapable like the prison and he is only able to leave when Mexican Dream comes (like Dream only escaping prison when Techno comes), oh and Sam lives on an island too.

Then finally Tommy’s 2nd Limbo I think pretty clearly relates to Tommy asking before he died about why and how Dream saw things, and Dream’s comment of “everything was fine before you came!” so Limbo shows Tommy Dream’s pov at the beginning. Reflecting how Dream feels, his - “I just don’t want to ever be alone.”

Anyways, hopefully that made some sense, those are just some thoughts I have at the moment. Now I wanna hear yours. :) How do you think limbo works? What do you think Punz’s and Dream’s Limbos were? What were Vik’s, Lazar’s and Connor’s Limbos? What do you think would have been Tubbo’s, Techno’s or other character’s Limbos? How was Quackity able to visit Schlatt’s Limbo in the Las Nevadas stream?…

Ahsoka meeting Bean Rex for the very first time.

It takes a while for the clones to feel comfortable enough with the Jedi to share the existence of the Trooper Beans, but some had their suspicions that there was more to their troops than met the eye. Mostly because the Trooper Beans got up to shenanigans that left evidence of "unseen pests" on board.

When you have a living extension of yourself (that embodies both your emotions and personality) hanging about, it's not too unusual that you'd feel a little apprehensive about sharing their existence. Especially when these curious little beings are more often than not, the only remnant you may have of vode you've lost in the past.

Most Jedi don't take the initial lack of trust too hard.

Whenever I watch Black Friday I always look over to my Wiggly on my bookshelf, and gain some sort of superiority complex.

I HATE MY ROOMMATEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

[doveshovel]

I saw a couple people putting together songs and playlists and stuff for their ocs so. First time attempting a character playlist(?) for Hunter wheeeee

This Cold Night: Drown me in the River

OH!Hello: Haunted House

The Smiths: Back to the Old House

Running away from his old house. Knowing that he would never wish to return, but feeling some conflict. Severing attachments to the few good memories that kept him there. Old love that, even then, existed as a distant memory. Has some wish to return to the same house as it existed in childhood. When the people around him were kind. Knowing it can never be as it was.

"I would love to go back to the old house, but I never will."

This Cold Night: Black Cathedral

Seeing the black silhouette of a church spire against the red light of dawn during the long drive north. He's not religious, but the imagery and timing leave an impression.

Linkin Park: What I've Done

Couldn't help myself. Had to put linkin park here.

Carmen Maki: 時には母のない子のように

Lost at sea

Joe Hisashi: A Town With an Ocean View

Arrival in Cape West

Corb Lund: I Wanna be in the Cavalry (Seth Staton Watkins cover)

Meeting WizardEgg, joining the soulriders. He's too optimistic about it, and almost believes them to be an idealized version of some little cavalry regiment. Doesn't think Garnok is an actual threat yet.

Big Data: Automatic

Aideen and Hunter's relationship, sort of. They're codependent. She needs a channel through which to enact her will, he needs to be kept alive and feel useful.

"I'll be the one to make your heart beat right"

"Here I am because you need me to do it again"

Modest Mouse: Float On

Despite everything, Hunter's an optimist. He tries to see the best in situations and people.

sakurai has dantes use 俺 and オレ to differentiate the danteses in part 1 - 1.5 - and 2 plus events and interludes... but i really like the use of 我 it just turns me into a giggling flustered mess😭 for sure of course, 'ore' usage is most commonly used by men... and its definitely fitting for dantes as using boku is gentler and is definitely more used for younger boys.. so ore is fitting but then??? he only??? switches to 我 when it comes to addressing his accomplice. that alone is enough to snipe me dead???

我 is mostly used by ossans and ojisans lmfao...and is definitely something youd hear from the Cavern King/Count of Monte Cristo...he's very dramatic and profound after all www but he uses it mainly towards 「我が共犯者」 to mean to guda that he is a very dependable man they could always count on... thats why you can see some illustrations that depict gudas as kids with dantes as like, on the father or aniki role www but the thing with 我 is that the kanji itself also means 'selfish' www so not only an old fashioned way of speaking but also saying YOU are HIS accomplice- THE MAN WHO IS VERY DEPENDABLE AND YOU CAN ALWAYS TRUST NO MATTER WHAT!!!! whats this expression of love? wwww he loves his accomplice very much... and of course guda would return the same love by addressing him in the pronoun they RARELY use to anyone else!!: キミ

they love each other so much...accomplices for life.
