The ROs + Abel and Florentin's opinion on School, Vegetables and Drugs?

School

Crux: The type of guy that was always "too smart" for school and suffered for it. Did exams in Elementary and High School just enough to pass, then had a mental breakdown in college and dropped out. He loves learning but hates the concept of school.

Black: Did well enough that he got into a decent college. His mom pressured him to be a doctor for money, but he hated Pre-med so much he dropped out in his second year and ghosted.

Vincenzo: I think if Vincenzo went to a normal school, he would have liked it. But his old school just left a sour taste in his mouth.

Abel: Overachiever and teacher's pet, kisses everyone in the faculty's ass, deeply unpopular with classmates for being a nerd and a snitch.

Florentin: Absolutely perfect in school and effortless. A highly regarded medical genius.

Vegetables

Crux: He hates eating and hates eating for health reasons even more!!!

Black: He was fine with it when he was alive, but he was more liable to eat disgusting processed stuff like cereals and grains.

Vincenzo, Abel and Florentin are all fine with it.

Abel's liable to mock you for being a fussy little baby for refusing to eat vegetables.

Drugs

Crux: He takes that shit like it's candy, it's very concerning. Very addictive and thrill-seeking personality.

Black: He did a lot of drugs when he was alive, like ecstasy and cocaine. He's never happy so he has to rely on substances to simulate it.

Vincenzo: None, absolutely none. The closest thing is sugar, and he can skip the sweet stuff. It's why he's so fucking crazy.

Abel: Abel's ideal is to be a perfectly well-oiled machine, and he will use any substance to make it happen, stimulants to keep working then weed to calm down etc. He picked up cigarettes to fit in with the other suits during lunch hour. But I actually think he would not be taking them if he had a choice. Abel's more liable to get addicted to sex esp if it's with someone he really likes?

Florentin: With his precarious health condition, he's not going to risk substances that could exacerbate it. He does drink a few cups of coffee everyday so he can keep studying.

Dang crazy how Roberto left part of his acciones to Betty! (not 100% sure but it’s pretty obvious)

Ngl if I were Marcela I’d be pissed but mostly betrayed especially since she viewed him as a second father. In her defense it would’ve been normal to expect she’d get some of Roberto’s share. He knew how much Marcela loved Ecomoda. Tho it’s too early to assume anything.

What I’m guessing is that Doña Margarita died before Roberto so who knows maybe she gave Marcela some of her shares and Marcela then felt entitled to Roberto’s as well? Or maybe Roberto did leave something for Marcela which he thought would’ve been more valuable than his acciones but Marcela didn’t viewed it as such?🤔 idk but I can already sense Marcela is going to blame Betty for not inheriting anything…

Okay prediction time!:

I think Marcela’s overall goal was to win the presidency for her son (or who ever that guy is, he’s definitely a Valencia).

I’m assuming Betty was president before she left for two years. Something happened which Marcela was able to ask for Betty’s head.

While voting for the presidency she probably lost due to majority rule and Armando took over as president. She was fine with it cause she probably knew he wasn’t going to last long. With Betty out of the picture and with Roberto’s death she was certain her son will take the presidency because she assumed she will inherit some of Roberto’s acciones. She probably wouldn’t have won majority vote but she could’ve won cause her vote would’ve had more weight with Roberto’s acciones.

Obviously Betty got the acciones and became president again and which ruined Marcela’s plan…

Obviously Marcela’s pissed and will now go above and beyond for her son to become president.

And that’s where another prediction come in!

What if she convinces her son to seduce Camila?👀 it’s history repeating itself! Camilla will go through what Betty did! A man seducing her for Ecomoda…

^but yea idk about this prediction tho💀 i can already guess that Hugo’s assistant (im assuming) will try to seduce Camila. But I don’t think it’s for Ecomoda but for another sick intention. That will be the difference between Marcela’s kid and Hugo’s assistant.

Also I wouldn’t be surprised if Marcela’s kid actually falls in love with Camila (again history repeating itself) and that’s how Marcela will get her redemption. Having to watch her son fall in love with a Mendoza just like her , watching them end up together just how she wished for herself. She will then understand that the hate she carried is a waste and will finally get along with Betty finally restoring the strong bond between the Mendoza & Valencia’s.

So yea that’s what I’m expecting as subplots for this sequel…

Bueno, creo que ahora esta época de mi vida es en la que me estoy convirtiendo en mis tías jajaja, me empecé a ver 'Yo soy Betty, la fea' y ya estoy a nada de terminarmela ver. Que novelón, 100000/10. Obvio tiene sus cosas y ajá, pero lo siento muy confortante. Tengo varios pensamientos que quisiera decir, de lo que visto y recuerdo hasta ahora: No relacionados con el lore en sí de la serie: - Sé que la nueva temporada en Amazon ha tenido varias opiniones, especialmente negativas, y no abordaré sobre eso. Pero me hace pensar que hubiera estado chevere que hubieran hecho una serie tipo "precuela", es decir, una serie para enseñar el pasado de los personajes, tipo: Por qué los Valencia y los Mendoza son así como son, conocer a la hermana de Armando, como se conoció con Mario, incluso ver un poquito más de la amistad entre Betty y Nicolás. Igual y si seria complejo juntar todas esas historias, pero un spin-off precuela siento que podría servir. - Otra idea, que se me ocurrió, es que hubieran hecho un reboot a la serie animada, yo me ví un capitulo y no sentí tanta pena como creí que iba a sentir, porque tiene un guión decente, pero la animación si esta bien cutre. Igual estos son solo thoughts, ya cuando me terminé la serie y siga con 'Ecomoda' veré que tal esta la nueva temporada. Ahora sí quiero hablar de los personajes: *ejem* Más de un personaje en esta novela, no es hetero. Y me encanta. No sabía que en Colombia teníamos este tipo de representación en televisión, porque igual siento que, si hay un poco de homofobía pero no siento que los usen como una burla o una parodia, a demás de Hugo también hay otros personajes gay, el que más me impacto fue el de RagTela. Yo fuí tipo- whatttttt 👀- lo cual me agradó porque sentí que en los cap anteriores le estaba coqueteando a Betty, pero no fue de esos coqueteos si quiera tiernos, fue uno de esos incomódos. Y había su razón. (Jsksjks)

No alargaré mucho esto pero creo que diré algunos personajes que me hacen pensar que no son hetero: Mario, es obvio, minimo es bisexual. También amo cuando salen Sandra y Mariana juntas porque, asafdksj, no sé- se me hacen una pareja muy cute. También levanto un 🏳️‍🌈? a Wilson, que aparte de chismosito (y que debian agregarlo al cuartel de las feas), si tenía ahi sus momentos... especialmente con Freddy. Bueno, ya, sigo. Otros personajes que me fascinan, más que por su historia son los Valencia. Toda la familia de hecho. - Los tres hermanos, son huerfanos siendo cuidados por el mejor amigo de su papá. La novela hasta ahora solo se enfoca más que todo en Marcela y como ella si tiene un gran peso respecto a Ecomoda, su familia, etc. Pero aunque la novela no lo diga, definitivamente la muerte de sus papás si les afectaron a los tres, y teniendo en cuenta que los Mendoza tampoco son muy buenos padres:

*Daniel se volvió más distante. Su actitud fría y calculadora podría ser un mecanismo de defensa ante la pérdida y la falta de apoyo emocional, buscando llenar el vacío con ambición y control. *Marcela se volvió más dependiente emocionalmente. Su necesidad de aprobación y su dependencia de Armando reflejan su inseguridad y su búsqueda de estabilidad emocional que perdió con la muerte de sus padres. *María Beatriz... en la novela dicen que ella era la "fea", pero no explican si esto viene de antes, cuando sus padres aún vivían, o fue después de que los Mendoza los acogieran. Siendo así, y sabiendo lo superficiales que son los Mendoza, especialmente Margarita, no sería raro que, siendo tan pequeña y con los comentarios de Margarita como única figura materna, haya sido impulsada a esta percepción de sí misma. También podría ser que los Mendoza les prestaron atención, pero no la suficiente para entender lo que pasaba en su interior. Para evitar que se afligieran más o vivieran en una depresión interminable, les permitieron hacer de todo, enterrando el problema y ya. Igual y también quiero creer que la alegría que aún quedaba en María Beatriz mantenía unidos a los tres hermanos Valencia. A pesar de lo tontos o irrelevantes que pudieran parecer sus comentarios, Daniel y Marcela nunca parecían molestos con ella. Después de todo, era su hermanita, y su presencia era un recordatorio constante del amor y el vínculo que compartían como familia.

Y para terminar con esto, si me termino la novela y Mario y Daniel siguen solteros, los voy a shippear, ya dije. 👀

Me expandí mucho con los Valencia, quería hablar más de los otros personajes como Patricia y las del Cuartel. Pero siento que ya esta muy largo, y aun no tengo mis pensamientos claros sobre esos personajes.

Uy pero no- un spin off de los valencia - me ilusioné yo solita 😭

[ladysophiebeckett]

Maria Beatriz was really the most rational Valencia tbh She correctly guessed that Armando had another woman in his life and almost begged Marcela to not marry him if that was the case because it would be insane. I almost wish someone would’ve told her that Armando had had a fight with Betty’s boyfriend the night before because she would’ve also correctly guessed that she was the other woman and everyone else would have laughed at her (Hugo would laugh but deep down knows it’s the truth 😶).

She is presented as an airhead, rich travelling socialite but she had a much greater insight than Marcela. For some reason ppl say that Marcela has siblings that dont care about her but Maria Beatriz does. She's the only one to tell Marcela not to marry Armando, ppl like Patricia and Margarita keep telling her telling to hold on to a dead relationship with a man that doesn't respect her. And for what? Image purposes?? So Patricia can live vicariously through her? So Margarita can have her Mendoza\Valencia Sims Wedding of her dreams??

If the fight fm the night before had been mentioned she immediately would know Betty was the other woman and she would have been laughed at while Catalina looks away and Hugo slyly changes the subject but not before insulting Betty in some way.

Maria Beatriz knows there's another woman and tries to get info fm Catalina herself and Catalina looks visibly uncomfortable but plays dumb. She may be an airhead, but she was on the right track.

Daniel is annoying and doesnt see the affair but he does see ahead of Ecomoda's future and knew that Betty was too smart for her own good and would end up higher up in the company than she should have been. Both him and Maria Beatriz are able to see the bigger picture, where as Marcela is too close to the situation and can't see beyond herself. And also her ego, which rivals Armando's. It's a surprise that they can fit into one room together.

[cerealbishh]

it's been years since galavant ended but one scene that sticks with me is the scene in 01x05 where they're fixing each other's robes and complimenting each other but like i personally feel like there's so many layers to it? these are presumably their final words to each other before they part and there's some light banter and teasing and a genuineness to it. there's also this warmth and appreciation. but there's also this sadness to it? the moment after izzy says "you have the ability to see the best in people even after they've wronged you" and she stops what she's doing to look up at him and when she does he looks absolutely fucking smitten and the galavant instrumental starts playing tenderly and slowly for the second time(first time was in the pilot when he attempted to stop madalena's wedding, so... tender music before someone he trusts betrays him... coolcoolcool) is so important to me because in that moment izzy realizes she's in love with him and gal is going through conflicting emotions because he believes he's in love with madalena but he knows he's growing an affection or fondness for izzy and doesn't quite realize(or maybe he doesn't even want to believe) that he's in love with her. they both say "madalena" with a sort of groundedness(?) but also some slight disappointment because they both know that's the reason why he's even here. finally, there's a longing look from both of them before gal leaves to help sid and they sadly smile at each other. not to mention izzy has major guilt brewing on top of all this.

hey so probably not a lot of you are aware of what's going on in Valencia (Spain) right now , and we're going through some really bad meteorological conditions (know as DANA) which paired with the government's late actions have caused A LOT of people to be victims of floods.

as of now, around 160 people have been declared dead and there are uncountable missing people. the situation is critical, many people from the municipalities around Valencia (paiporta, alfafar, sedaví, xiva, benetusser, catarroja, silla, la torre... and more) don't have running water or electricity. hundreds of animals are being transported however possible since shelters have been destroyed. people are starving unable to drink water, and incommunicated. everyone around here is trying to help, but for now, the accesses are cut and we can't go physically help them, we can only donate things they need.

Hello! Welcome to the official Double Dead Studio Tumblr, the solodev behind Reanimated Heart, Another Rose in His Garden, and Pygmalion's Folly.

Reanimated Heart is a character-driven horror romance visual novel about finding love in a mysterious small town. There are three monstrous love interests with their own unique personalities and storylines.

Another Rose in His Garden is an 18+ erotic Omegaverse BL visual novel. Abel Valencia is an Omega who's hidden his secondary sex his entire life. Life's alright, until he meets the wealthy tycoon, Mars Rosales, and the two get embroiled in a sexual affair that changes his life forever.

Pygmalion's Folly is a survival murdersim where you play as Roxham Police Department's star detective, hellbent on finding your sister's killer... until he finds you. 

Content Warning: All my games are 18+! They contains dark subject matter such as violence and sexual content. Player discretion is advised.

This blog is ran by Jack, the creator.

Itch | Link Tree | Patreon | Twitter

Guidelines

My policy for fanwork is that anything goes in fiction, but respect my authority and copyright outside it. This means normal fan activity like taking screencaps, posting playthroughs, and making fanart/fanfiction is completely allowed, but selling this game or its assets isn't allowed (selling fanwork of it is fine, though). You are also not allowed to feed any of my assets to AI bots, period, even if it's free.

Do not use my stuff for illegal or hateful content.

Also, I expect everyone to respect the Content Warnings on the page. I'm old and do not tolerate fandom wank.

F.A.Q.

Who are the main Love Interests in Reanimated Heart?

Read their character profiles here!!

Who's the team?

Jack (creator, writer, artist), mostly. I closely work with Exodus (main programmer) and Claira (music composer). My husband edits the drafts.

For Reanimated Heart, my friend Bonny makes art assets. I've also gotten help from outsiders like Sleepy (prologue music + vfx) and my friend Gumjamin (main menu heart animation).

For Reanimated Heart's VOs, Alex Ross voices Crux, Devin McLaughlin voices Vincenzo, Christian Cruz voices Black, Maganda Marie voices Grete, and Zoe D. Lee voices Missy.

Basically, it's mostly just me & outsourcing stuff to my friends and professionals.

How can I support Double Dead Studio productions?

You can pay for the game, or join our monthly Patreon! If you don't have any money, just giving it a nice rating and recommending it to a friend is already good enough. :)

Where do the funds go to?

Almost 100% gets poured back into the game. More voice acting, more music, more trailers, more art, etc. I also like to give my programmer a monthly tip for helping me.

This game is really my insane passion project, and I want to make it better with community support.

I live in the Philippines and the purchasing power of php is not high, especially since many of the people I outsource to prefer USD. (One time I spent P10k of my own money in one month just to get things.) I'll probably still do that, even if no money comes in, until I'm in danger of getting kicked out the street… but maybe even then? (jk)

What platforms will Reanimated Heart be released in?

Itch and then Steam when it's fully finished. Still looking into other options, as I hear both are getting bad.

Will Reanimated Heart be free?

Chapter 1 will be free. The rest will be updated on Patreon exclusively until full release.

Are you doing a mobile version?

Yeah. Just Android for now, but it's in the works.

Where can I listen to Reanimated Heart's OST?

It is currently up on YouTube, Spotify, and Bandcamp!

Why didn't you answer my ask?

A number of things! Two big ones that keep coming up are Spoilers (as in, you asked something that will be put in an update) or it's already been asked. If you're really dying to know, check the character tags or the meta commentary. You might find what you're looking for there. :)

Will there be a sequel to Pygmalion's Folly?

It's not my first concern right now, but I am planning on it.

WHAT'S GOING ON IN SPAIN AND HOW YOU CAN HELP!

On the 29th of october Valencia (in the south-east of Spain) suffered the worst flooding disaster in recent history.

The damage is unimaginable, many people have lost everything and the death toll is high and expected to rise.

A group of Spanish phannies set up a gofundme for donations. We set up various incentives for people to donate (fanart, edits, fanfic, etc).

All the money will go to the spanish red cross! You can check this twitter thread for more info.

Donating or sharing will be of huge help for the people directly affected:

You can dm me for more info! Thank you so, so much 🖤

"Wouldn't dream of it." Says he, while being exactly that. Bishop likes to think his personality's sided more towards modesty nowadays, but nothing will truly stamp out what he was born with. Such as the way he also takes up a defensive stance. His arms cross over his chest, head canted just so, with most of the weight shifted onto one leg.

A terribly flat, yet amused, laugh sparks before his features sober. "Oh, you're serious. Drool all over you? That's what you consider normal?" Something close to disgust takes ahold of him, or maybe it's just pure spite. "I'd rather give you money than this— especially after you've put yourself on such a high pedestal. Christ— I'll need to bleach my brain to stand the thought of it."

"oh, don't be dramatic," valencia all but rolls her eyes. she stands with one hand on her hip and narrows her eyes critically at bishop, her nose scrunching up a bit in distaste. "look — it's not like you were my first choice but i'd actually rather drop dead than show up alone to my ex's wedding, so can you try acting like a normal man and drool all over me?"

she brings a boxed water to her lips and takes a swig before she continues. "really, you should be jumping at the opportunity. it's not like i'm asking you for money, i'm asking you to pretend you're into me for like, a couple hours. how hard could that be?"

did u guys know ppl ship betty with marcella? bc I found that out last night and im still processing it.
