I just have to say I LOVE the Instant Synchronised Murder Faces that Fai and Kurogane are whipping out any time anything even slightly unusual happens. It’s EXTREMELY warranted for where they are, and also just slightly hilarious whenever it’s like… a door opening.

BUT INSTANT SYNCHRONISED MURDER FACES I SHALL HAVE!

I suppose you could say the giant doors they had to open in Koryo were the tiniest bit foreshadowing this moment. Oh it’s even the same battle party too! Sakura didn’t come with them that time either, so it was just the four of them storming a giant forbidding castle controlled by an evil wizard who was watching them magically from a distance.

If there is acid anywhere inside the ruinsI’m allowed to start yelling.

Oh! Also! In Koryo the inside corridor of the castle had a repeating hallway - kind of like a time loop, but a far simpler one. And when they visited the Memory version of the Clow Ruins in Recourt the hallways also randomly changed in size and shape, as if time and space were unstable - which is far more relevant now than it ever was before.

I can't believe they've done this.

#We’ve never been here after all #But by giving us visibly similar images and scenarios #It FEELS like we have #Like we are ALSO in a time loop #Like all of our adventures have been echoes of this moment displaced in time #Liveblogging the Reservoir Chronicle #Vol 188 #Tsubasa #Lava Lamp Guy #Mokona #Kurogane #Fai #The only downside is that #We are not given the opportunity to see Kurogane punch down a wall #WHICH I AM SURE I WILL RECOVER FROM EVENTUALLY

edit (10/23/2024) now that the poll is over: Original version, with 10 questions, from April 2023 here

And, given that the original is from April 2023, that means I can very easily say:

No, this was not an ISAT reference!

Just because I use parentheses and 2nd person pov and love the same concepts of what a time loop can do to a person doesn't mean it's ISAT

(Yes, I like ISAT, the original poll is why I was recommended the game! But if you look at the original, you can see all the origins of the options to choose from, including what spurred me on with the moss option from the replies)

If I were going to make something for ISAT, I would never be so vague, you can simply look at my ao3 for proof of that

#egg speaks #writing #polls #my writing #egg writes #my polls #poetry #time loops #listen I want to run this again #time loop poll #<- check that tag on my blog for the original 10 option version lmao #unreality #you know I didn't think I'd get fed up with people making isat jokes about this #I thought it'd be like oh hey neat same hat #we both like the same game #but people keep going “oh this is JUST an ISAT reference”#as if it's not a genuine work of creativity I did myself. it feels a bit devaluing #“op you played isat” yes but that came after the original!!!!!#I KNOW it's not meant like that but I want people to engage in my work as its own thing. you can make jokes about similar media!!!#but this is it's own thing!!!!#I want people to like it for what it is. I want people to enjoy it outside of other media. I want it to stand on its own #I'm flattered someone said it was good enough that they think it could be narration from the game and read just as well!!!!#but like. idk. all the other medias popping up (pmmm. orv. higurashi. etc) aren't people calling it a /reference/#if I wanted it to be an ISAT reference I would have tagged it originally. I would have targeted it toward ISAT fans more intentionally.#I love fanworks but this was an ode to time loops alone. I wanted people to think. to have to CHOOSE. I wanted PARTICIPATION #time loops as a narrative and as horror and as a group activity via polls on tumblr. also s/o to the person who said 40 hr work week so tru

"This one wants and wants but will not speak. They have circled endlessly, chasing what they had, that of which is now lost. They will make for a yearning heart."

so i played slay the princess recently. and might've thought about another monochromatic time loop game......

(psssst please pretend those are the Universe's hands, ok? okay. thank you. enjoy those implications.)

#in stars and time #isat spoilers #isat loop #loop isat #sammi sketches #i'd like to do something more with this and the other frins we encounter.#like comic frin #i think thatd be fun!! also this isnt an au or anything; i dont have anything thought out for an actual au lmao

Everyone Except For Siffrin Is Looping Au Except Someone Wishes That Siffrin Knew Everything There Was To Know About The Loops And Subsequently Accidently Replaces Their Non-Looping Siffrin With Post Game Canon Siffrin And They Only Find Out Cause Siffrin Gets The Memory Of Back In The Fucking Building Again.

#captain's posts #was this an elaborate set up for a joke? yes yes it was. was it also a legitimate au suggestion? yes yes it was. the duality of man ~(°^°)~#isat #in stars and time #isat au #in stars and time au #looping!Party:*wakes up in their designated areas* back on our bullshit here we go~#post canon!Siffrin:*wakes up in The Meadow™ after not looping for a year or so* F U C K #post-canon!Siffrin spends their first loop ignoring their problems and pretending like its all just a fucked up dream caused by stress #when in reality the looping party is Loop-less and instead summoned themselves a Siffrin that escaped the torture nexus to act as a guide

got some loop dialogue that didnt flow well with what we were doing the current loop so i made this to kinda smooth it out

#isat #in stars and time #isat spoilers #in stars and time spoilers #act 3 spoilers #isat act 3 spoilers #we did friendquest but previous loop we got the bonnie interrupting isabeau dialogue #so loop was talking about isabeau's interrupted confession and friend were like huh???? thats not applicable to now #so i made this!#loop trying distract siffrin from depression by dangling the confession in front of him #also friends all booed isabeau when he didnt confess during friendquest and called him a coward and i thought that was so funny #because thats so siffrin #so i shunted that thought over to loop bc they wont hold back #the draws

here's everyone from Café Chick all together!

siffrin - the newest employee, recruited from the gas station around the corner. still learning how to function in a healthy work environment. loop - an alter in the same system as siffrin. they're better at making it through tense situations than siffrin, but that doesn't mean they handle them well. mirabelle - she's worked there the longest, but turned down the promotion to manager. that's a lot of responsibility and she's still figuring out what she wants to do with her life. isabeau - recently bumped up his hours after burning out of college. he's not great at latte art, but he has fun. odile - took the manager position as a way to escape her stressful corporate office job. it's nice being part of something smaller and more tangible. nille - usually comes in bright and early to bake the pastries. she's started working towards getting her GED, too. bonnie - in their first year of middle school. whenever nille has a shift outside of school hours, they hang out in the shop, doing homework and playing DS games. euphrasie - owns the coffee shop. she puts any extra profit towards the underfunded local house of change, where she's a member of the board.

i'm working on some silly little posts for this au, but feel free to send asks too if there's anything you'd like to hear more about!

EDIT: changed nearly everyone's color schemes bc i found the Q&A where id5 assigned them favorite colors and it was going to bug me forever if i didn't change them to match, lmao

#in stars and time #isat au #isat #isat spoilers #siffrin #loop #mirabelle #isabeau #odile #nille #bonnie #euphrasie #café chick #theyre all so cute together like this.... puts them in a to-go cup and shakes it around :3 #silverstarsart

Siffrin plays Disco Elysium AU: Featuring backseat gamer Loop.

#in stars and time #ISAT #Siffrin #Loop #disco elysium #digital art #When I first thought of a crossover I went from 1) 'ISAT Disco AU but Loop is all of the skills'#To: 2) 'Loop is in the mindspace alongside the skills #To my magnum opus: 3)'Loop is sitting next to Siffrin backseat gaming him the whole time.'#Loop beat Disco Elysium ages ago and repeated it to the point they know all the vision quests and dialogue variables.#Siffrin just started playing and Loop keeps ruining the fun by using their meta-game knowledge to try and help.#Also let's be real. Siffrin's stats are 100% completely focused into motorics and nothing else.#If we can't Savoir Faire ourselves of this situation - we will explode. Endurance? Call my insurance instead.#Thinking skills? None. Emotional intelligence and morale? A failed social interaction canonically feels like death to them.#I might have bumped Phys up but...Siffrin's Electrochem stat is like -10. And Pain Threshold is emotional durability too.#Unused part of this joke is that I set their signature skill to Drama.#Both these games made my brain melt so now I get to combine them! I have that power!#This joke made me laugh the entire 3 hours I sat down and drew it and that is what creation should be about.

Not all who wander are lost. Some who wander, however, are extremely, extremely lost.

#note: this is a kitchen in a house of change. they are still on the road w the party #not to say i think that maybe chillin out in one location with some loved ones and planned visits from their friends would fix siffrin #but i am saying that they do seem to hoard random items at every given oppertunity. which is an interesting habit #isat #isat fanart #in stars and time #in stars and time fanart #isat spoilers #sifloop #isat siffrin #isat loop #sloops #lucabyteart #but yeah no i dont actually know that siffrin would wwwant to be . travelling literally forever. given the. well. um #that one QnA answer especially. the immediate deflective joking when asked how long they'd been a traveller. mm.#it's not like they chose this life is the thing. and we know they have a habit of forcing themselves to 'stick to the script'#i really do think they'd be better for some stability. its not like you cant have a house and also go on fun travel holidays also #(if you want my real opinion. why not just move to bambouche to help raise bonnie. but. that's fanfic territory at that point)

happy siffrin day / loop plush drop day / loop day!!! :D

#in stars and time #isat #isat loop #isat siffrin #isat spoilers #isat act 6 secret encounter spoilers #<- since. yanno. LMAO.#a thought crossed my mind briefly thinking loop and sif could technically have 2 stated different birthdays #if we assume that siffrin said a random date when asked about when their birthday was cuz they forgor #then that could also mean loop? said a DIFFERENT random birthday??? when asked who knows when?? if that makes sense???#so they could share an ORIGINAL birthday but when asked on two seperate occasions they couldve STATED two different days???#idk where i was going with that tbh it was more of a random thought than anything else ASFASDAS #also!! favor tree topped cake!!! i thought it would be fun to draw #was originally gonna just have siffrin and loop on it but then #it looked empty so added the party and some birds :]#however poor planning meant the cake was uh tinier than expected to fit everyone #oops!!! still fun tho!! no regrets there #also please pretend the toppers are more to scale and are kinda like mini plushies since #i thought itd be a fun touch cuz the loop plush drops today :D #okay! tag talk over!!

*sigh* thoughts on Nintendo's botw/totk timeline shenanigans and tomfoolery?

tbh. my maybe-unpopular opinion is that the timeline is only important when a game's place on the timeline seriously informs the way their narrative progresses. the problem is that before botw we almost NEVER got games where it didn't matter. it matters for skyward sword because it's the beginning, and it matters for tp/ww/alttp (and their respective sequels) because the choices the hero of time makes explicitly inform the narrative of those games in one way or another. it matters which timeline we're in for those games because these cycles we're seeing are close enough to oot's cycle that they're still feeling the effects of his choices. botw, however, takes place at minimum 10 thousand years after oot, so its place on the timeline actually functionally means nothing. botw is completely divorced from the hero of time & his story, so what he does is a nonissue in the context of botw link and zelda's story. thus, which timeline botw happens in is a nonissue. honestly I kind of liked the idea that it happened in all of them. i think there's a cool idea of inevitability that can be played with there. but the point is that the timeline exists to enhance and fill in the lore of games that need it, and botw/totk don't really need it because the devs finally realized they could make a game without the hero of time in it.
