I put together a little Disco Elysium graphics pack in 2023! Has vectors for my take on the RCM logo/watermark and a vectorized version of the Revachol map, all based on official/in-game sources. You can find it here on google drive :)

[bagmanunlucky]

fic where kim develops shivers?

1. do we need this? 2. how badly do we need this? 3. i'm already writing it, please need this.

idea inspo from @zoetheduckling beautiful art: https://www.tumblr.com/bagmanunlucky/779845837859815424/zoetheduckling-my-liege-i-have-been-searching

i'm a writer & researcher, but it's my first fanfic for the characters running through my mind 24/7 since 2019. i flesh out the outline, themes, emotional arc, etc. constantly. focus is shivers, but also viewing skills through the lens of internal family systems (IFS) work. kim is so repressed, his parts need the help of a certain sorry cop to let his exiled parts surface and get in touch with his Self.

i have never been obsessed with something as much as de or kim kitsuragi. if you like a writing style that's been trying to emulate Kate Chopin, Rupi Kaur and Stephen King their whole life, stay tuned!

update for those interested:

i love all the people asking to be tagged when i eventually post it, but i fear i prematurely teased my fic because of how long my research and writing process is. i can't do wip because i don't write chronologically and also i don't wanna do wip cause that seems anxiety inducing. lol if anyone wants to be a fic writing accountability buddy please comment <3

This isn’t a fully finished thought-project yet so please bear with me but I’m pretty sure Cuno is the one paying the bills for the de Ruyter apartment.

Or at least he’s trying to.

When you go into Cuno’s apartment, the first thing you realize is the chain and the warning about the electricity. From what we know about how Cuno protects his shack (and the state of his inebriation-comatose father) we can safely assume that Cuno’s the one who chains the door closed whenever he leaves. Obviously, no one in Martinaise would want to leave their home open for any reason, but the apartments clearly have deadbolts installed in the doors— so the chain is an extra measure. Cuno can’t have anything being stolen, even taking the extra effort beyond confidence in his own intimidation to chain it up.

The apartment has two rooms: Uuno’s bedroom, and the living room. Uuno’s bedroom consists primarily of the bed, the clothes line, presumably a dresser or some end table-like surfaces. Plenty of room for his substances and shit.

The living room has the sofa, which is clearly covered in Cuno’s clothing and a makeshift sleeping setup. The risqué pinup on the wall is basically confirmation that this is Cuno’s “space,” not something that he and his dad alternate or share. The L-Couch is Cuno’s bed, bedroom, and dresser, effectively.

Which leads us to the tiny desk. The items on the desk are minimal, but crucial: Cuno’s speed with the straw, Cuno’s textbook and homework, a lamp, the stack of bills, and an open phone book.

We’ve established already that Cuno and his father do not share space. Cuno is already a territorial kid, established by his limited safe zones in his own home. He wouldn’t leave his damn homework out somewhere where his dad could access it; the fact that the homework exists means that beneath his attitude, Cuno clearly has a deep level of care for his schoolwork and at least a desire to complete it. With how terrified he is of his father, there’s no way in hell Cuno would leave his schoolwork out in a place that his father could damage it or get angry for it. Which essentially confirms that the desk is Cuno’s space only.

The speed has its little straw, making it convenient to sip on consistently while doing work at the desk. (I do this with my water tumbler.) especially if you’re at the desk for a long time. With the open phone book, it’s clear that Cuno is at least trying to find the numbers for the companies that the bills are coming from. It’s not just a pile of mail on the desk— he’s doing research into it. Gathering phone numbers to take outside to one of the payphones. The desk is organized, business-like, unlike anything Cuno is— except for how he deals.

Which leads me to my last bit. Cuno’s insistence on selling you shit. Obviously, the best way for this kid to maintain a steady supply for his own addiction is to be a dealer. However, for a 12-year-old boy with a substance addiction in the world of DE where there’s nothing else to do, that level of self-control is absurdly high. There’s a meticulousness to it that betrays a primary aspect of Cuno’s approach: business. Cuno isn’t doing it for popularity, for “cool” points, and if his focus was only his own addiction then he would likely just steal them, take it all for himself. He’s not supplying his dad, that’s for sure. On top of that, he’s got a side hustle selling clothing and other crap he picks up, enough to try and pitch it to Pigs— repeatedly. There’s a lot to buy off Cuno, and it’s the one thing he repeatedly brings up in dialogue options, aside from insults. He wants you to know he’s willing to do business. He needs the money. Because the bills are stacking up, his dad could die any minute, and now he’s got Cunoesse too. (It’s not confirmed if she stays in the apartment with him, and I’m inclined to think not, considering the chain, his fear of her too and the fact that she stands on the other side of the fence than him— there’s a special separation there. There’s also no trace of Cunoesse-noted belongings nor a second space to sleep indicated on the couch; shivers, empathy, none of the skills speak up when inside the apartment about anyone but Cuno and his dad. At the same time, this is again unconfirmed).

I lost what I was talking about here, but the point is. Cuno breaks my heart and I want to adopt and take care of him so badly. It’s one thing to be a delinquent kid, it’s another to be a 12-year-old delinquent kid trying to pay your own damn bills in Martinaise. Fuck, man. I love this kid so much. He breaks my heart.

As much as I yap about my old man yaoi, I think Cuno is my favorite character in DE. He’s just… I need to take care of him. God help me. I wanted to kill his dad so badly. Sigh.

Anyways. That was my thought project. Thought Cabinet just adopted Cunology.

I have Disco Elysium Stickers up on my red bubble : )

Enemies now.

Made myself a RCM patch! :)

I used @freezebobs vectors/renders as a base, but used blues instead of black and white because I wanted to reference forget me nots.

Also shortened district names besides Martenaise due to size. Black border is to have a place for the safety pins.

It's actually my second attempt, so I'm pretty happy with it!

Judit Minot. This was made pretty hastily so the the porportions are kinda wonky but I had to just draw something to get it out of my system.

[en-garte-au-cafe]

uhh, hi, i'm here to apply for the cook position-- i heard you were hiring? i have no experience but i *do* have a winning personality and a pretty nice apron

This sounds suspiciously like something Lieutenant Double-Yefreitor Harrier du Bois would say. So no.

Unless you would like to submit a legitimate application and not just an anonymous text.

What is wrong with you all.

I genuinely need help or I’m going to lose this place. Good luck finding another RCM-friendly hostel, if this is Officer du Bois. And if it’s not… then please reconsider. Just. Please.

Neutrally,

— L. Garte, Manager

P.S. @lieutenant-hdb was this you? If so, is that one of Sylvie’s left behind aprons you stole? Please give it back.

P. P. S. — If you are looking to quit the RCM, Officer, we could discuss working something out. The Whirling is in a dire situation, business-wise. I would hate to see it go, especially after all you did. To protect it, I mean.

RCM watermark/logo sticker project from 2023!... I think these were pretty cool and I put a lot of thought into the design + the cards and envelopes I put them in ☺️ Not selling them anymore but I ended up putting the files for these on google drive (see separate post with disco elysium graphics)!

The envelope, card & how it came together!

In-game references that were considered in the design for the stickers and cards:
