#alnst oc: macbeth

[brightstarofnoct]

what do you think of your classmates sirius : D ?

JIU ( @severedscales ): He’s fascinating, in a way. So studious, so monotonous. He seems to act strange in front of that Kioku girl. I think it’s a little bit funny how we almost wear our hair similarly. Would it be weird if I said I wanted to dissect him?

KIOKU (same as above): Very forgetful. I want to know why… but I can’t just go up to someone and ask, “Why is your memory horrible?” She’s so friendly. She reminds me of sunflowers. I might give her one some day.

NENE: Her brightness is very blinding, it’s a little bit annoying. She’s always writing letters. Either that, or she’s pining over some girl like a loser. I deliver her work sometimes. I try not to think about her, really.

XAEL: He doesn’t like me. It’s fun to mess with him.

NUMA: Arguably one of the most interesting in ANAKT Garden. He has such a warm feeling about him… it’s not overwhelming, or bad. He’s always so nice. He has so much energy, he loves sports, but he’s not a sore loser. He’s even willing to teach others how to play with him. I worry for him sometimes when I notice he spends too long in the bathroom and comes out looking rather pale. I see it normally happens right after lunch, if he eats. He usually skips it. It’s so odd to me how much energy he has even if I almost never see him eat. I want to know everything about him.

ZERO ( @myworld-collapsing ): Zero is like a shadow. I think their name is fitting. I don’t really see Zero, but I feel him around me. He’s obsessed with me. I don’t mind it, though. I think it’s cute. I like seeing his reactions.

ASAHI (same as above): I don’t believe in matchmaking. I often find myself annoyed with her for a reason I can’t describe.

DANTE ( @imperfectnothing ): I like him. He’s very helpful to me. I appreciate the company he brings. Dante himself doesn’t scare me, but… There’s something about the way he makes me feel. It’s different. That’s what’s scary. I don’t want to hurt him for loving me. I don’t know exactly what that means. I might tell him when I know what this feeling is.

MILL ( @waterydream ): Mill is like me. Mill and I share a lot of the same attributes. I don’t have to “pretend” with Mill. He told me I didn’t have to. That neither of us have to. But still, I wouldn’t call them a friend. Sometimes Mill does say things that seem a little bit targeted, though I wouldn’t call it annoying. I’d say we’re acquaintances at most.

TOKI ( @eventseraphim ): What a freak. It’s like he saw through my facade the moment we met. He likes bullying me as if it’s a joke. It doesn’t matter, though. He makes for an interesting friend. I will say that he is quite lucky I didn’t come to ANAKT for new test subjects…

INNAMORATI ( @alien-til-i-stage ): Very friendly. I don’t like it when he messes with me. I don’t want to show it and hurt his feelings, he seems fragile.

MACBETH (same as above): “To-morrow, and to-morrow, and to-morrow, creeps in this petty pace from day to day, to the last syllable of recorded time; and all our yesterdays have lighted fools the way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle! Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player, that struts and frets his hour upon the stage, and then is heard no more. It is a tale told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, signifying nothing.” … Sorry. He’s named after a show I’ve read before and enjoyed, that’s all. I like Shakespeare. It’s interesting to me how humans used to talk… I think Macbeth is very well named. I wonder if he’s read the play…

YUME ( @sotogalmo ): So odd. I want to take Yume apart to see how what makes him tick. Is that so wrong?

YVONNE ( @aakaneeee ): Hm. She reminds me of vines. To be loved by her is to be trapped in a thorny embrace for all eternity…

ELIANA (same as above): I don’t know why Nene finds her interesting. Nene has such odd tastes…  At least Eliana is pretty.

YAEL ( @lookatmysillies ): He’s such an enabler. He doesn’t know what he’s doing to me, and I’d like to keep it that way. He doesn’t need to know anything I don’t need to tell him.

MAYA'S FIRST DAY IN ANAKT GARDEN [PART 1]

She doesn't recognise anyone there.

That should have been obvious, of course she wouldn't. But she can't help but take note of it. Some seem to have made connections while others are content on their own. But none are faces she finds familiar.

Maya chooses to sit in a corner, under a tree (are they truly trees? is the grass truly grass? is any of this real-). She is content to watch the kods play. She is content to watch the way this story will end.

Maya takes notes of some of the kids in the meantime.

There was a boy with lengthy pale blue hair and blue eyes, talking rather happily to another kid, who had brown hair and striking gold eyes. Maya can't tell if they were friends...but they looked close to it. Maya can't help but think the scene looked rather sweet. The blue haired kid looked happier to be there than the brunet, but he looked content nonetheless. It was an odd pairing, but they seemed to be friends. She could see smiles, no matter how big nor small. [Innamorati and Macbeth by @alien-til-i-stage ]

(There was another boy, a redhead, who was looking at them from a distance. He seemed fixated on the 'blue one'...to an unhealthy degree. He felt dangerous...almost like he was inevitable. Were the blue and him also friends..?(Toki by @zerostyrant )

There was another duo she took notice of, mostly the girl, hair fading from white to brown, being more..excited, she could say. She was a bright person, there was no doubt about that. The kind that would draw people in. The boy looked rather stoic, as though he was one of those noble aliens Echidna sometimes talked to. But Maya could tell there was also an air of...caution? He even avoided looking her in the eyes...why would he be catious of the girl? Despite this, he let the girl stay around. Thats curious. [Jiu and Kioku by @solei-eclipse]

Maya looks around some more and a child takes up her attention. He looked almost ordinary, with black hair and dark eyes, but there was definitely something...uncanny about him. Like he was an attempt at something resembling human, but not entirely one. He was smiling, and it should by all means look genuine, but Maya couldn't help but find it to be so fake. Ingenuous. Almost like a doll in a way. [Yume by @sotogalmo]

The other boy he was at near felt familiar. Maya could find a sense of resemblance in the boy to someone she had seen before. But this time, he felt more...sane? Was he sane? Was anyone here truly sane? He seemed like one of the more quiet ones...like he was constantly afraid of something happening. (...why did he almost resemble one of those funny dolls Maya had seen before? The ones with strings) [Sebastian by @/sotogalmo ]

There's so many scars she can notice on the kids...are they safer here than they were before? Did some of them even want to be here-

Is that a kid in a tree?

...Dear guardians, it's a kid in a tree. He seems comfortable up there, like he's done this plenty of times before. And he just up there...observing. He had bright red eyes. (It almost seemed like they wouls glow), and beauty marks that looked like the bite marks from one of those crude shows Echidna watched. He seemed normal despite all this, if not shy. Still, he was intriguing if only for his habit of apparently watching from trees. [Ciaran by @starry-skiez ]

....ah, there was a familiar face. Just one Maya had never spoken to. She should have known Yvonne would be here. And she still carried that air of elegance around her...as well as that sense of unhinge. Her muted pink hair was always a sight to see, but Maya never got over the eerie personality of hers...Maybe she changed [Yvonne by @aakaneeee]

Maya's eyes landed on strands of white, with striking pink eyes to pair with them. The girl was staring up at the clouds (were the clouds eve real?...suppse it doesn't matter to the girl) . She seemd content in her activity. It looked peaceful. [Asahi by @apriciticreveries ]

There was another child by her side, also content. Maya could note that there were moments where seemed to communicate something to the other one using her hands rather than her words. It makes her curious on how she made it into the garden in the first place. [Yumi by @rockwgooglyeyes ]

A loud vpice caught her attention, and Maya turned to look at a rather fragile looking girl, with brown hair, only interrupted by a streak of yellow. She looked cheerful...almost like she would tackle someone to the ground out of sheer affection. But Maya felt like something deeper was lurking, like she had her own secrets she wanted to keep...Still, she seemed to be a lind soul. [Nene by @junebluues]

Ah, there. There was a boy who looked like he didn't want to be there. There was no sense of honor or want that Maya could see on the surface. He simply didn't wish to be there. Bandages wrapped around his hands, but Maya couldn't see if there was blood from where she was sitting. He did seem to be fiddling with some sort of technolody in his hands, useless if not for the fidgeting. [Xael by @junebluues ]

Beside him was another boy, though he looked more friendly than the other one. He seemed fond of his...friend(???) regardless. He seemed happy to be there, and rather brighter tha his counterpart....they were cute together. [Numa by @spcells]

[lookatmysillies]

Yael Fun (Tragic) Facts!

Since he has the least amount of screen time of any of my OCs so far, he’s some tidbits of his character to help get to know him better:

-He gravitates towards unhealthy relationships whether that be for friends or romantic partners. He has an incredibly toxic and codependent relationship with Macbeth, and after Macbeth’s death, he becomes obsessed with trying to get Innamorati to accept him and accept Macbeth’s passing.

-He could have the potential for a healthier dynamic if @paradisedisconcert is still making their shy little guy

-He’s had multiple unnecessary surgeries done. He’s had organs removed and replaced that were perfectly healthy. He has to have a very specific diet not to aggravate his system after all that’s been done to try and “fix” him.

-Because of this, he has to exclusively eat plain, tasteless food. He misses sweets.

-Tends to wander with seemingly no goal, aimlessly picking petals off of flowers or staring at seemingly nothing

-Before he goes to sleep, he has a routine of pressing his fingers against different spots on his torso to feel if anything is inside that shouldn’t be or otherwise missing. He does this again when he wakes up.

-They’re very interested in his peers and sometimes follows them around without saying anything.

-He and Naz used to be friends, but Naz slowly became freaked out by Yael and pushed him away.

-His hair is always cut short and straightened when he comes back from a visit home. His guardian is wealthy and likes him looking as clean and presentable as possible. Naturally, his hair is curly.

-Left-handed.

-Takes a lot of strange medicines every day that switch out frequently. He has to take them crushed in his food since he can’t swallow pills.

-Born female but leaned more androgynous and masculine as a young child, so they grew up as such.

-Wants to help others but often goes about it the wrong way.

-Their guardian, Aligri, has never sent any humans to Anakt Garden before Yael, who was sent very, very young.

-He has a very blank look about him most of the time.

-Can often be heard singing strange, unfamiliar melodies and words under his breath—he sees singing as ritualistic. He’s never known a life in death without it.

-In addition to Macbeth and Inna, he’s also interested in Naz, Kioku, Yume, Xael, Numa, Sebastian, and Yumi (subject to be added onto, obviously)

-He never really seems happy or childlike, just listless.

-He once had an incident where he almost drowned in the stream in Anakt Garden. He wandered there and was found facedown in the water by a classmate. He was pulled out and had to be revived.

-He had to wear a collar after that.

HI!!!

I was wondering what Kio and Jiu would think of Macbeth and Inna? and maybe Lilith but I don’t think they would know her too well (mostly bc shes an alien model but maybe theyve heard about her)

I think Inna would find Jiu to be really similar to Macbeth and maybe tries really hard to make the two of them friends.

Inna: look hes just like you

Macbeth: wtf why you just carry him over here???

He would also consider Jiu as a close friend, even if Jiu didn’t think the same. Maybe like everyday for a moment or two he tries to find Jiu to pester him a bit.

I also think Inna would really like Kio and bond with her. Like the two of them run and play around the garden together and maybe even race a bit! (Kio always wins)

Meanwhile I think Macbeth wouldn’t really interact with Jiu too much, but he would notice that Jiu seems to have smth going on with Kio, that he just acts differently with her. He wouldn’t care too much bc it doesn’t involve him, choosing to instead ignore it.

I also think Macbeth would be pretty annoyed by Kio and tries to avoid talking to her, same reasons as he does with Inna. He just doesn’t like them. If Kio was running around he’d try to find somewhere else to be

jiu 🤝 macbeth

kio 🤝 inna

this is SO fun to me, especially inna finding jiu similar to macbeth. the two duos are kind of like mirrors of each other, inna and jiu both have blue(ish) hair and blue eyes, yet Inna is lighter and brighter while Jiu's hair is so dull it's basically black. His eyes are steely as well, definitely not as bright as Inna's.

Kio and Macbeth both share a brownish color, but Kio is warmer both physically and personality wise.

INNA CARRYING JIU? HELP. His expression was definitely 🗿 the whole time.

Unfortunately Jiu would not appreciate being pestered 😭 in his head he'd register Inna as a bit of a pest and make a mental note to avoid him when they're about to cross paths. Nothing personal against Inna (I guess, Jiu doesn't hate him), Jiu just doesn't want to be bothered when he's so busy. It's really nice how Inna sees him as a friend, though! I think Jiu would feel guilty about that, he doesn't feel deserving of it. Still, it would make him feel a little bit soft.

INNA AND KIO WOULD BE GREAT FRIENDS! They'd definitely play around a lot! Their personalities seem like a perfect fit for each other and their vibes would mesh really well. Kio would reach the finish line first, and if Inna was still farther behind she'd be cheering him on!

Most of all, she'd like the blue of Inna's eyes. It reminds her of something, but she can't properly recall...

Macbeth clocking Jiu and Kio's tension but going 'thats not my problem' is SO real. stay unbothered king.

Macbeth (tries to avoid Kio) 🤝 Jiu (tries to avoid Inna)

Kio and Inna would be an absolute force to be reckoned with actually 😭 Jiu already feels awkward with Kio, but now that she's hanging with Inna... Jiu is going to apply reverse magnetism and immediately swerve at the sight of them.

Partly because they're a great bother, and partly because... well... it makes him bitter. Seeing the two together is like a childhood memory coming to life just to mock him.

TW for brief mention of SA, abuse, and panic attacks.

Bumblebees are out - Jack Stauber

♧ Clove ♧

Green is Clove

Blue is Aster - @apriciticreveries

Orange is Wren - @ivanttakethis

Purple is Cindy - @tsukacchako

Macbeth - @alien-til-i-stage

Sebastian - @sotogalmo

Clove's most recent owner, Ignis. Abandoned him at ANAKT at 15 years old. He was visually beaten and bruised, cuts and gashes visible through tattered clothing. He looked lifeless. The administrators who handled him were... a bit concerned, but couldn't do anything to help him yet. The only thing Ignis said before handing all ownership over to ANAKT was, "Keep her hair long and keep her piercings in. Don't let her take them out."

And so began Clove's recovery at ANAKT. The admins were thankfully kind towards Clove, and helped him recover as well as put him in physical therapy for wrongly-healed fractured ankles.

Clove was silent for a while, the light in his eyes was dark. Everyone was referring to him as a girl and he couldn't say anything about it. His voice wouldn't come out, he was too scared.

But little by little, he regained hope. He ended up in speech therapy too, which helped a lot. Soon enough he was giving rough bits and pieces about Ignis' treatment towards Clove as well as Clove's preferred identity. They acclimated decently, able to edit a few things on his chart for future admins to see. As for Ignis' treatment, they weren't surprised to hear the things he had done. A lot of human pet owners treating their pets like sex toys, punching bags, and/or slaves is nothing new.

From what they've gathered, Clove endured all three. He was forced to be a young girl and to do everything Ignis asked of him. It was torture. He had to endure it for roughly 2 years.

They learned how Clove's eye became defective. He had a nasty beating and was left with a gash through his right eye leaving it black, bruised, and swollen. It got infected and wasn't treated. He had a parasite eat its way through his eye and by the time he was finally taken to a doctor, he was already blind in his right eye. Thankfully it was removed before any further damage was done.

...

...Making friends at ANAKT was a nice change, too. He found a lot of people he liked and some he... didn't quite like. He can be found in a patch of grass weaving flower crowns for anyone who wants one, his shaking hands turning stems in and out, over and under. He repeats the motion until his hands start to cramp.

Sometimes he'll accidentally break a stem... somewhere in his mind he hears the snap of his ankles and the scream he let out after, but he's not there anymore. He picks another flower.

He found someone who's presence is very calming, someone named Aster. He finds it quite ironic that their name is also that of a flower. He likes to braid flowers into their hair and likes to sing and dance with them. They can't see very well, but Clove doesn't care. He likes to help them during the day, if they feel like Clove is crowding them, they never say anything. In fact, Aster seems to enjoy the help Clove provides.

♧

"I hope I can see you one day. Maybe when I get you out of Alien Stage."

"Alien Stage? What's that?"

"...You... oh no..."

"Aster...? What's Alien Stage...?"

They stay silent for a while, contemplating their next words carefully. Unfortunately,, there's not a good way to put it.

"Do you know what our singing practice is for? It's for Alien Stage. Once it's your time to participate... you'll be sent off to compete. If you lose a round by unpopular vote... they kill you on stage. It's all for the entertainment of the aliens. I'm not here to participate, only to train. But you... I need to get my owner to adopt you, so you can be free."

Clove's head was swimming. He felt dizzy. He was going to die? He would go up on stage and sing his heart out to an audience of aliens, only to be voted against and killed?

His breathing became quicker and heavier. His hands were shaking again. He felt lightheaded and everything was too bright. His vision was blurred,,, no those were tears. He quickly stood from the bench he was sitting on, forgetting his ankles were still faulty. Tripping backwards, he lands on his back, punching the air out of his lungs. He curls in on himself, deaf to Aster calling his name frantically.

HewasgoingtodiehewasgoingtodiehewasgoingtodiehewasgoingtodiehewasgoingtodieHEWASGOINGTOFUCKINGDIE.

♧

When he wakes, hes lying on his back, facing the too bright sky of ANAKT garden. His head was pounding, but he could see familiar face above him. He made out Aster, Cindy, and Wren circling him, he also swore he saw Macbeth and Seb in the back watching worridly.

"You okay, Clove?"

"Yeah, you seemed to hit the ground pretty hard, does anything hurt... too bad?"

Clove groans, sitting up slowly. He tries to hold his head up with his hands, but notices that one of them is being held by Aster. He feels his face heat up a little bit, but deflates when he remembers why he's on the ground in the first place.

"Alien Stage..."

Everyones face twists in disdainful knowing.

"Is that what got you to freak out? I thought you knew?"

"He didn't. I guess... he was never told."

"Is... Is there anything we can do to help you, Clove?"

"I just wanna sleep. My head hurts. Sorry for scaring all of you."

He stands on wobbly feet, Wren immediately standing to stablize him. He mumbles a 'thank you' as Wren helps him get back to his room.

He doesn't sleep very well, needless to say.

FNAF Alnst OC au........

Toki as Vanny.... The song "For You" by NightCove_thefox..... (Toki: @zerostyrant )

Innamorati as Tapegirl (for the Vanny tape girl yuris).... Tho I rlly don't know.,,,

Macbeth is Gregory. He's Gregory to me (inna & mac: @alien-til-i-stage )

[lookatmysillies]

I was thinking when I read this post that Inna would be one of those characters everyone woobifies and You Will Die in fandom spaces if you don’t like him while Macbeth is reduced to “poor traumatized gay boy” while meanwhile he is traumatized but in fact very responsible for his own actions and also. Hey can we not ignore that he’s aroace, asks somebody in the back. They Die ✨

For my OCs, I can tell you right now that Castor would be dumbed way down to the comedic relief, ignoring that his constant joking is a coping mechanism for severe trauma. LIKE YES I JOKE ABOUT HIM BEING A DUMBDUMB ALL THE TIME BUT I ALSO WRITE ABOUT HIS MENTAL BREAKDOWNS SO THERE’S A BALANCE—

Kyo would be like Till where people either take his hotheadedness too far and make him literally just the most inexcusably mean person ever, or woobify him to hell and make him a super sensitive bottom energy twink

Himei and Naz would probably be villainized by some people for expressing morally gray thoughts as women. Oh No. Naz is probably also dumbed down like Cas and there’s not enough focus on her as an individual without Akane because people focus too much on their relationship and not enough on them as people

Itsaso would probably be sidelined constantly. She gives those vibes

Tallis’s character would also clearly have no life outside of his relationships

Eddy is woobified and treated like a baby. Yael is loved by 50% and hated by the other 50. Would probably have terrible analyses on his mental state and whether he’s evil or completely innocent (because there is obviously no middle ground). Macbeth’s aroaceness is ignored in their dynamic (because obviously an aroace person and someone who is romantically and sexually inclined can’t be partners who have strong feelings for each other). Massive brain 👍

wait this aould be so cool

Can we start a thing where we show the canon ver of our alnst oc and then a fanon ver of how they would be mischaracterized if they were in a popular show

[zerostyrant]

TW for semi graphic depictions of cannibalistic behaviors!!

Butcher Vanity - Vane Lily, Jamie Paige, ricedeity

Toki was abandoned and left to fend for himself at a very young age. He has no real memory of his parents, if he was genetically modified, or if he was bred for any purpose. All he remembers is the howling pit in his stomach.

He’s… always hungry. Nothing satisfies his stomach. He’s learned to deal with it as he grew older, even if it got more difficult once he was taken to ANAKT Garden. His current guardian found him hunched over a dead body, gnawing flesh off the bone of the poor human soul who didn’t stand a chance against a starving thirteen-year-old. The alien that found him was put off by the crude sight, to say the least, but it persisted and took the child away.

Toki went down with a fight. He bit, clawed, and scratched at the alien who took him from his meal, only to be drugged and subdued, eventually put in a collar. His guardian made sure to put his cannibalistic tendencies on his file, so that he can be closely monitored around his classmates.

His start at ANAKT Garden was rocky, and he was incredibly rebellious. He would constantly get into fights, leaving the other person with bloody bite marks and deep scratches. This led to him being muzzled 24/7 and treated more like a misbehaving pet than any of the other human-pets. This is around the time he realized that he won’t get what he wants if he doesn’t behave.

It was also around the time he befriended Innamorati, another student in his class. A boy with light blue hair and royal blue eyes. Toki found him pretty, to say the least, but he liked him more because of his blind kindness. If Inna knew what Toki did, or what he does, he clearly doesn’t care and sees past it.

Inna has drawn things for Toki. He keeps all the drawings Inna gives him and puts them all over the walls next to his bed. He’s not allowed to have a roommate, nor is any student allowed to be alone in Toki’s room with him, so there’s no one to complain about him hanging up Inna’s art. (Inna doesn’t know Toki does this btw)

Inna also taught Toki how to dance, which is where he found his love for it. He loves dancing, even more so with Inna.

Issues start to arise once again whenever he becomes aware of Macbeth’s presence. Whenever he becomes aware of… everyone’s presence. He sees other people playing and interacting with Inna and can’t help but feel anger towards these people. Inna should have his eyes on Toki.

But Toki behaves. He decides to go the route of studying people. He studies Inna the most, obviously, but he also studies the people he talks to. He learns what makes them tick, what’s special to them, and their mannerisms. He learns to smile and entertain people to get as much information as possible. It even helps him get on the good side of his guardian and earn his label as a good pet. Once he knows enough about another person, he turns everyone onto them. He frames, backstabs, blackmails, and gaslights. (gaslight gatekeep girlboss yk)

His first victim was Macbeth, and now no one likes Macbeth. He knew a lot of people already didn’t like them very much, but the things Toki did to make Inna hate them was enough to get everyone to hate them. Toki sees the poor thing sit and sulk in a corner, closed off and ignoring anyone and everything. He feels no pity.

All he feels is his love for Inna, and the still, slow growing, pit in his stomach. Maybe Inna can satiate his hunger.

But maybe not… Rabbits aren’t meant to be predators, so he’ll continue playing prey.

☆

Other fun things to note!!

Toki is toxic as hell with so many red flags... Inna is colorblind /j

Cannibal!! ...willingly

Obsessive and possessive personality

Severe lack of empathy

Semi black and white thinking

Ridiculously manipulative

With his obsession over Inna, he can still have friends and does enjoy others' company, but he ultimately turns on them if they get in the way of him and Inna.

He would only let Inna have friends if they were friends with Toki, too

Toki's name means rabbit in Korean!! "토끼" "Tokki" (hehe there is a specific meaning for this :3)

Naturally pretty flexible, does a lot of stretching before bed and in the mornings. In a modern/actor au, he'd have a background of childhood gymnastics.

Sits in some really strange and compromising positions... (my little pretzel <3)

I make playlists for all my OCs across many fandoms, and Toki is no exception. His playlist is already done and it is here:

At the top of each lore post will be a song from the playlist that I feel fits the post :3

Innamorati/Inna and Macbeth belong to @alien-til-i-stage !!! hii pookie :3

[ A wild Kioku approaches Yael ! ]

HEY! Man, are you okay?

I heard you nearly drowned in the river! That's not good at all obviously, and I should know! I've fallen into my fair share of rivers. I saw a green-haired kid fish you out, though, which I'm grateful for. I've only just recently arrived and I'm no good at remembering names, so I couldn't tell you who it was. I'm sorry.

I don't really know you all that well, but I think you should eat something. The other kids tell me to be careful with you, and I've seen you pat your body pretty often, so I'm worried you might have health issues.

Here, take this jelly. It's plain, so hopefully it won't bang up your innards or anything. Don't even worry about where I got it! Haha. Ha. It's super important to eat and gain at least a little more strength! Maybe it'll help you out in the future! you know, with the falling or fainting and drowning stuff... I wonder how you ended up there...

Anyway, I know this is super sudden, but I kinda know what almost-drowning feels like, too. I just wanted to try and help a little bit. I'm not really sure how to do it properly... I just want you to feel better. I hope you can feel better.

Oh, the teacher is coming... I'm gonna run now, see you around!

Hiiii!! This is Para!! Sorry for all that, I just thought it would be silly. I'm here to ask what Yael thinks of Kioku! He's a super interesting character to me, and while you've already explained a bit of his thoughts on Kio, I'd like to ask if you could share any more/explain further? If it's okay with you! The whole angel thing was particularly intriguing...

Love your characters as always, and I truly do enjoy learning more about them :)

[Yael stares back at Kioku with wide eyes like she’s just given him the world rather than a single somewhat unremarkable jelly.]

Oh! Yes, um, it was an accident. A bad one, but I’m still here… Can tells me he’s the one who found me, and I’ll take his word for it. He seems like he would do something like that…

Sorry you’ve fallen into water a lot, too. Drowning feels stranger than I would’ve imagined. A lot worse. Thank you for the food, it almost tastes a little bit sweet if I hold it in my mouth for a while! You really are an angel. [He says this very seriously, though it flies over Kioku’s head. He’s quiet for a moment.]

I hope maybe we can talk more and—oh, yes, go ahead. Goodbye Kioku! The teacher’s probably here to take me for another useless checkup.

Hiii Para! Thanks for dropping this in my inbox, Kioku’s adorable face was the best thing to wake up to earlier today 🥺 To expand on Yael’s thoughts on Kioku a bit, I’ll establish some comparisons with his other fundamental relationships to give you a reference point:

He has the strongest feelings for @paradisedisconcert’s Can and @alien-til-i-stage’s Macbeth and Innamorati, Can being his purest relationship, Macbeth more muddled, and Inna just. Ridiculous. Who even knows

Add Kioku to this bunch of people he takes an especially strong interest in once she arrives, Kio being a person he looks up to and believes wholeheartedly in (due to misguided reasons, but there nonetheless).

He thinks of her as an Angel; Macbeth as Death; Can as Life; and Innamorati as personal Salvation. Kioku and Macbeth both represent “selfless” ideals: He adores Kioku because he believes she is here to save them from their eternal prison—not just to save him, but ALL of them. He truly believes she’s filled with all the good in the world and she can do no wrong in his eyes. His feelings about her are misguided but pure in nature. He also mixes up romantic and platonic feelings a lot, and she is the only one of these 4 he doesn’t feel confused about. I’ve mentioned that he’s subconsciously drawn to unhealthy relationships, Can being (for the most part anyway) an exception. Kioku is too good to have those kinds of feelings for, in Yael’s mind.

His perception of Kioku as an angel is different from his idea of Can as life or Inna as salvation. Can and Inna are what he perceives as his “selfish” ideals. Can isn’t holy or angelic in his eyes, but rather incredibly human; flawed and damaged, proof of their existence. Yael views his own existence, simply existing for himself, as selfish, and Can encourages living for himself. Inna is Yael’s personal salvation from his own mistake of playing a part in Macbeth’s death; Macbeth, who he believed was supposed to die and be free. He missed him so badly and questioned if it would be better for him to still be with him. He can’t change it, though, so he seeks absolution from the last piece of Macbeth there is.

Yael creates his own Saints in his head and Kioku is one of them. She represents a twisted sort of hope to him, and he wants to protect her and help her with whatever she needs to repay her for descending to Anakt Garden.

Thank you for the ask, I love yapping about the children. I love your characters too, I’m excited to learn more about Jiu and Kioku! That said if Jiu hurts her I will be seen on the news

Are we…. about to make the non canon toxic ship canon right now…. 😳😳😳

Yael and Macbeth refuses to leave my brain. They’re just such a screwed up dynamic and I live for that. They’re very “I hope you die, I hope we both die” core. Like they genuinely do care for one another in some capacity and they rely on one another for companionship, yet that connection drains the life out of both of them. They can only hurt each other, but at least the hurt is nicer than nothing, right? Right?

Then of course Macbeth goes and dies *head in hands* as is the nature of the doomed toxic situationship. And that can set into motion Yael and Inna’s equally fucked up dynamic. THE BILLFORD COMPARISON IS SO FUNNY TO ME

Inna: I hate you! All you do is hurt people!

Yael:

I think Yael would be confused why Inna isn’t happier that Macbeth is “freed” (while not recognizing his own feelings of loss) and doesn’t understand why Inna hates him so much, so he just tries harder to make him like him like “wait, no, see, I’m a likable person! (lie)” Like with Macbeth, he’s more drawn to people who express dislike for him. I guess bro likes a challenge he’s weird okay—but yeah, Yael could be an interesting outlet for Inna’s grief and anger, and Inna could be an outlet for Yael’s own repressed grief and feelings of confusion.

Also, the bit on Macbeth and Inna being originally intended to be more of a romantic dynamic is so interesting to me, I got those vibes before Toki came along! Their designs are very complimentary, which still makes sense considering their closely connected stories and their complicated sort-of friendship.

hiiiiiii :3

how do you think seb, eeta, and yume would react when they learn macbeth has died???

Ouwguahehfahs.

Hmmmm, I actually dunno how Sebastian and Yume would react, I mean. Numb, yes. But then-? I dunno. I mean, at least Seb would've wanted to hang out in some way, or to at least just chill with Mac

Yume is quite indifferent towards death itself, because he's experienced it (more like his facades and such, his small identitys). At first he would think he'd come back since Yume has come back many times, but then he accepts that he won't. Only a small part of him thinks that Macbeth wanted this, and is fine with being dead/ he hopes he rests well, even if it hurts.

Eeta, oh her heart. How it affects Inna breaks her so much. But for her personally, it's also a hard blow. I like to think that she and Inna would talk to each other bout their friends and such, and Eeta would get slightly attached to Mac due to her mother instincts and such (she also tries like Inna!). It's like the time where I lost a pet. It hurts only for the moment, numb throughout life and when in the dumps of life it makes me cry. I think that's how it would be for Eeta, even if that connection is- ehh

hear me out hear me out

yael vs inna

O h m y g o d

YAEL VS INNA

WE SHOULD DO IT WHEN S40 ROLLS AROUND

This would be such a good one; they would both feel like Macbeth is there too, this unspoken grief that drives a wedge between them. Yael wants desperately to be liked by Inna and for Inna to recognize that no, no, I didn’t hurt Macbeth, I loved him, I didn’t hurt him, I don’t want to hurt you either, please like me, please want me. And Inna, usually so chill and sweet, is completely blindsided with rage and hatred. He needs someone to point the finger at for what happened, because there’s just… no other way to rationalize it. All of it.

Anyway Yael vs Inna watch Yael get brutally murdered as Inna unleashes his inner alpha on 4k Ultra HD LIVE (/j) (unless…?)
