before I played Disco Elysium, I thought Harry du Bois was a co-worker in the precinct you work at and, reading about him being such a fucked up guy, I was literally planning on avoiding him as much as possible in my playthrough... colour me surprised when I found the badge and found out the main character's name

I've been listening to an embarrassing pop song, and all I can think of is Harry and Kim meeting in their early 20s, and Kim is still in his massively rebellious phase.
Maybe neither Kim nor Harry is in the RCM yet. Harry's a gym teacher. Maybe Kim is doing community service (cleaning up the schoolyard?) because he got caught being a delinquent. They strike up a friendship.
Maybe it's unlikely from the outside - but they're two people chewed up and spat out by the system. Harry just has more advantages than Kim.
Maybe Harry has started seeing Dora, or he's thinking about asking her out. He's head over heels, and it's so fucking painful for Kim to watch. Painful because he's jealous. Painful because he shouldn't be jealous. It makes him alternate between lashing out and being incredibly compassionate. It's confusing for both of them.
Maybe that jealousy spurs Kim on to show off for Harry - dragging him to races. Cars. Motorcycles. Bikes. Daredevil stunts done by people who see it as a win/win situation to survive a crash or go out in a blaze of glory. Kim participating in some of those races - speeding down the highway late at night. Drifting so hard that his shoulder almost touches the ground. Looking over and seeing Harry jumping to his feet. Out of fear? Out of pride? Doesn't matter. Harry sees him.
Maybe Harry notices he's not as interested in Dora. She's beautiful - so fucking beautiful - but she doesn't see him. She doesn't share the passion he does. She's gorgeous, but she's not cool. She doesn't like that he slips out to watch underground racing. She's not a fan of Kim.
Maybe Kim is Harry's first real friend since the other kids of the 15th Indotribe died out. Someone who sees Harry's curiosity and returns it with his own. A friendship that fills his lungs with light to the point of bursting. But he's never been hurt by friendship like this before. Friendship doesn't burn like this - that's reserved for wipeouts, booze, and love.
Maybe the first time they kiss, neither of them knows if it's a mistake.
Maybe the first time they kiss, neither of them cares.

I’ve seen that post on here that’s like “What did they put in this game to make us all Like That,” and I think we’re all Like That about Disco Elysium bc we’re all hyperfixating on it because it surprisingly speaks to the chaos of living with ADHD. And we SEE that and feel seen.
- First of all, Harry Du Bois Adhd headcanons pop off hard, especially with the whole “I do speed to do detective work,” aka I need stimulants to focus, aka unintentional self-medication. Also the poor impulse control, emotional disregulation. And the voices remind me of the way my brain jumps topic to topic so I have like 4 ongoing topics going at once. Stereo investigations, thoughts in the thought cabinet, if you will.
- Additionally, a lot of interactions surrounding Harry’s memory loss even feel very ADHD. ADHD is a problem with working memory (attention/focus), which cascades into causing problems with encoding memories for long term storage. You can’t remember what you never even focused on. Because of this, being forgetful of things that seemed basic or obvious or easy to remember for other people is a staple problem for people with ADHD, and while the game is obviously much more extreme with total retrograde amnesia, I find that the game’s demonstration of “the people being frustrated or confused by basic things you’ve forgotten or misplaced” (and this being taken seriously as a Big Issue affecting your life, even if the others don’t take it seriously/brush it off) is very relatable and almost cathartic. Even if the only reason why it’s taken so seriously in the game is because you’ve just literally lost all your memory… and your gun lol
- Harry doing buck wild things to get results based on the conversations going on inside his head, which don’t get read to the outside world, is very relatable. Again, my brain jumps topic to topic so much that it’s almost hard to track the logical thread connecting the thoughts internally, much less explain them to another person at the same time. The “how did we get here, what exactly brought you to this course of action? This seems unrelated, detective” is very much a conversation I experience on the daily, whether with myself or the people around me.
- Kim Kitsuragi is the ADHD fantasy. @snowberry-pie’s got in one. He’s perfect for fighting off that executive dysfunction by helping you actually get shit done while not being suffocating/controlling/shaming about it. He sorta takes responsibility of you to help you take responsibility of yourself. He’s a body double, your partner in it with you. Lets you go on your barely related stereo investigations and indulges your inexplicable actions instead of controlling you, trusting that it’s part of the process lol. Offers positive reinforcement instead of using shame (like calling Harry a burden) to get Harry to focus on the case.
Disco Elysium has lots to say about how disability is exacerbated/unsupported by the system for a lot of characters, including Harry. Adhd fits right into that, especially with the ways an ADHD!Harry interpretation would highlight the understandable nature of his drug addiction (not only was it a way to cope with chronic pain that no one was treating him for, but also a way to cope with unmedicated ADHD).
Anyways I wrote this instead of writing my paper.

We need to talk about Caspar's arc in Pentiment and how it sucker punches you by using genre conventions.
In Pentiment, when you say something that will affect an important NPC decision later, a little "this will be remembered" banner pops up. This can be useful for knowing when you've pissed off someone or made them like you. Lots of RPGs have NPC opinions like this.
By Act 2, you're probably familiar with how this works, and trying to say things to get on people's good or bad sides. Enter Caspar, your apprentice, who looks up to you as a father figure and who you have taken in as a stand-in for your real son who died. Obviously, you're gonna want to be kind to the kid, and when you do a "This will be remembered" banner pops up. You may assume that this will lead to a major decision down the road, similar to the "Kim really trusts you" check during the tribunal in Disco Elysium. I felt good about myself for being a good mentor for him through the course of Act 2.
And then you get to the tribunal and you have to ask him to leave. And all those nice things you did are now stacked against you.
Because you were kind to him, Caspar stays out of loyalty to you. Because you tried to raise his friendship meter, so to speak, he gets himself killed in the burning library. Because you tried to be a good person, you've now lost *another* son. He died saving the books for you.

There was like a decent few months when disco elysium was first popping off where I thought it was made up like goncharov. Also I somehow managed to completely misread the title every single time I saw it so up until like earlier this year I thought it was called disco asylum

excuse me while I add a third Disco Elysium OC to my roster...
God, I love how this game is written. It's so fun to just... make little blorbos based on how Harrier du Bois' fucked up brain voices will see them. A heehee. Giggle.
Anyway, enjoy~ He's still being developed, but I hope this teaser will tide some of yous over <3
~~~
VISUAL CALCULUS: A young man. No older than his late 20s. 172 centimeters, approximately 68 kilograms. Bright, outgoing-- probably has loads of friends.
LOGIC: Someone this popular doesn't take for a solo flâneur.
ENCYCLOPEDIA: "Flâneur"-- the coolest of the cool, but in that introspective, cool international poet way. A person without chains or concerns, wandering the urban paths for no better reason than the city has solid ground and the flâneur has feet. Basically, this kid is flâneuring right now-- aimlessly milling about, simply for the pleasure of it.
HALF-LIGHT: Or so he says.
CONCEPTUALIZATION: What kind of crowd would someone this cool and casual draw?
1. What does he look like?
Me. I'm his crowd. He rolls with guys like me.
Seems like a pop-collared prick if you ask me. I don't even need to see him to smell it. Elitism, baby.
Why do we care? We're just asking directions.
PERCEPTION: Now, remember-- you can't determine everything there is to know about a guy based on how he looks, brother.
LOGIC: But we can guess.
PERCEPTION: Sure. He's got a lot of pockets. A dark, snug-fitting ribbed tank top. A t-shirt, cropped at the ribs. A heavy-duty canvas worker's jacket, again with lots of pockets. A bandana around his neck. Work gloves, a duffel bag - so many pockets - and a good, strong pair of leather work boots.
SHIVERS: Hang on. Something isn't right here.
HALF-LIGHT: This whole time, you've been listening to his casual directions, the Lieutenant jotting each one down with quiet affirmations of 'mhm' or 'what's next?' You've been looking at him, haven't even taken your eyes off him.
SHIVERS: But neither has he.
HALF-LIGHT: He's been watching you, watching him.
[SKILL CHECK: COMPOSURE -- GODLY: SUCCESS] You manage to look almost bored, lazily passing your eyes over him again, paying extra attention to what you see.
PERCEPTION: We missed something.
CONCEPTUALIZATION: He runs with an alternative crowd. But not with them. This kid doesn't have an air of popularity-- it's infamy. Look at his bootstraps.
ENCYCLOPEDIA: Revolutionary groups often adopt subtle signs to recognize one another in the wild, especially when expressing a certain view or lifestyle which may invite dangerous interactions. This young man is gritty, savvy in your Marazovian sociopolitical lingo. He's a comrade, of the working class.
HALF-LIGHT: No. Not a comrade. He may not be a fascist, but he's not quite our friend.
PERCEPTION: Check his boots again.
CONCEPTUALIZATION: Blue laces. For the code.
ESPRIT-DE-CORPS: Cop-killer.

I treat my blog as an open diary sometimes. There'll be cool things about my life and things in excited about and things that make me upset and general life shit. I also talk a lot about my little brothers endeavors because i love him and he's my little creature. If this bothers you, i recommend not following. Also this blog contains adult stuff because im an adult, follow at your own risk and/or pleasure 👍
More info under readmore!! But only if you feel like it.
Other than the aforementioned, i have Many other interests that Can and WILL show up here, like:
My OCs and worldbuilding
Portal

Disco Elysium
Stranger Things
Homestuck
Whump stuff
FNAF
Literally whatever show and game im currently watching or playing.
I'm also VERY into music. My favorite genres are 00s pop, industrial metal, heavy metal, classic rock, folk and mpb. I love learning more about music and getting to know new music genres. Feel free to pop some in my inbox.
Random info: I use emojis abd smileys unironically. I just love to pepper my texts with some emotion here and there. I promise there's no sarcasm associated to my emojis and smileys. If i send i smiling smiley i Mean It. I also add !!!! To them if I'm particularly excited. Tone tags are confusing to me, I don't use them.
Regarding The Me: I'm queer and weird about it! My gender is completely not my business, it's up to you to gender me haha also I'm an Artist and creator at heart, so i draw a lot, i like sculpting things with clay and foam, i love doing collages, i like playing my guitar and sometimes i write fucked up things for fun because it's Fun, tho i wouldn't call myself a writer. I'm diagnosed audhd. I'm weird and not in a cutesy way sometimes, but at least I'm funny about it i think!
I'm a year one med student with a background in AG/rural sciences (vetmed + fishing) which ig is kinda funny. The funniest thing about me is I'm an honest to god fishing technician.

I'm REALLY shy, but please feel free to send an ask asking for my discord if you'd like to chat. My messages are off for nonmutuals because I grew tired of getting spambots. One thing i MUST state upfront if you'd like to talk to me and be friends: i likely have a personality disorder (avpd, extreme anxiety regarding Connecting to People) but I'm working on it! I'm trying to get better at talking about myself and my interests and socializing, so don't blame yourself if our conversations fall flat. Talking and initiating conversations with people is Hard, but I'm alright at keeping conversations going if you tell me about your likes and dislikes or if you wanna do small talk! My cheat sheet is: Talk to me about your favorite weather, your timezone, what you like learning more about, about your country and culture or your favorite types of music and your favorite bands! Tell me about yourself, please!!! I'm told i can be really cool to talk to if we get to know each other, I'm told I'm a very trusting, agreeable and judgementless individual. I'm eager to make new friends and learn more about people and we'll bond over something, I'm sure 🥰.
I think that's about it.

disco elysium! day 4!
we finally made some headway in the actual mystery (got the hardie boys and klaasje to talk), only to discover that we'd been lied to the entire time and in fact had made no headway in the actual actual mystery. (also we explored the new area probably earlier than intended.) visual calculus isn't as poetic as some of the other skills but it is always so fascinating when it pops off. also we spent quite a while debating the physics of the murder as it was described to us right before visual calculus laid out exactly what we'd been discussing.
other developments: we've started a couple intriguing new thoughts (including homosexual underground and remote sensing division); met our coworkers in shitty disguises; did very badly at telling a woman her husband was dead; got a steam achievement for getting kim to like us; learned that kim has an embarrassing past as a pinball champion??????; acquired a die that only ever tells us god has abandoned us and had a very meta discussion about failure.
also, we got two incredible leather jackets off some randos looking at kim's car. i'm trying to avoid spoilers so i don't want to search but: is there art out there of us and kim wearing the jackets; if so, please link me to your favorite one
still have no idea where we are in the game (don't tell me!). i think we could be as early as the beginning of act 2 or as late as the beginning of act 3, but this could correspond to truly any amount of in-game or out-of-game time remaining. there's so much game in this game that absorbing spoilers ambiently from my dash kind of tells me nothing
lastly: i am so, so sad we didn't win the mountain climbing pinball game. i immediately changed all our clothes to the appropriate bonus and tried again, only to learn the machine was busted. if we don't get another chance, i would fully replay this game to be able to win at pinball.

So, I'm about Hour 8 into Lisa the Undone, currently on Chapter 4
I think my favorite thing about this fan game so far is the fact that your choices matter in affecting the way Buddy acts in this game, especially with the one bit I am currently hyperfixated on to hell and back
Spoilers ahead for those that have yet to play Lisa the Undone. Please for the love of God check this fan game out if you ever get the chance, it's sincerely well worth your time.
SO, Lisa the Undone, probably my highest rated Lisa fan game so far, and it's all because of one thing:
The Disco Elysium inspired monologues.
What the hell do I mean by that?
Essentially you have 3 "statuses" or states that Buddy has to balance. One involves how social Buddy is with the rest of the world, one is how violent she can be, and one is how much exploration she does in the world.
With the first one, it starts off subtly. You won't really see any difference with the social stat until you get to about the 2nd or 3rd tier, and that's when you finally get The Voices(tm)
Essentially they are what you'd get from Disco Elysium's stat monologues, they're voices in Buddy's head that comment or suggest actions here and there that kinda break the fourth wall a bit. It's very well written for a Lisa fan game and the writers here pull it off in a really engaging way, at least if you ask me.
Over time though they start to affect the choices you can make for Buddy. Go too far into the social stat and soon Buddy starts to interpret things that NPCs may be implying. They could be 100% paranoid delusion...or they could actually be foreshadowing things, implying things that YOU may know if you're a really big Lisahead but to Buddy may mean something totally different. Eventually you go so far into this stat that suddenly even corpses and inanimate objects start to have dialogue that may or may not mean something to you.
It's PEAK Disco Elysium and I love it so fucking much, I adore the idea of Buddy tapping into some supernatural type shit that may be borderline insane until you realize "wait what the fuck this is actually foreshadowing", it's not a blatant ripoff of Disco Elysium but a genuinely good inspiration taken from it, if that makes any sense.
The way you can write that stuff for Buddy and really get into her headspace with this kind of dialogue, and also make it so interesting to read that it makes you wanna push it further and further is DEFINITELY something I love about Lisa the Undone so far. All this content you can get in this fan game is entirely optional, even the three states Buddy has to balance, but God it's so well worth it seeing how the game reacts to your choices and the resulting dialogue that comes with it.
I may post more on this, cause I am hyperfixated to hell and back on this fan game, but god
I really wanna see it pop off like Lisa the Pointless, this is a gem worth playing.
That's all I got for now with this blog post, but I'll leave one more but of dialogue that I've enjoyed, the peak so far:
DISCO
NEVER
DIES

Any chance of a Codex brand Disco Elysium playthrough/analysis sometime in the future?
I've considered it, but my big concern is just that I'm not sure what I'd bring to the table for it. It's one of those works of art that seemingly has had every piece of it so exhaustively examined, re-examined, and re-re-examined that I feel like anything I'd say would inevitably have already been discussed in more depth by someone else. It'd be a fun video to make, but also a redundant one. Perhaps a stream or a podcast tho, cause I would love to be able to just pop off about the Horrific Necktie with some friends for an hour or two.

Meet The Choir
It's Monday, so I'm giving you lore bits about my character's "Choir" - the result of Minti's job crystals resonating with her aether and Echo. In non-WoL timelines, they are aetherically created constructs made from Minti's imagination; in WoL timelines, they are people she's met on the way to becoming the Champion of Eorzea. Think of them like party members you'd meet in a classic Final Fantasy game. Or, if you've played Civilization games or Disco Elysium, they're like those pop-up advisors who appear to tell you about how cities work, or to tell you that your ugly tie looks GREAT on you.
I go into more detail HERE and HERE.
---
Without further ado, let's meet our aetheric host:
Tumblr media
Lead Soprano: The Artist (They/None)
Note: "I am here to create. You may refer to me however you wish."
"The world may be dark indeed, but have faith. The chill of winter must come 'ere we find the warmth of spring."
Manifested from the Samurai job crystal. Self-appointed voice of reason, coordinator with the many other voices in Minti's crystals. Logic with tempered passion.
Tumblr media
Soprano: The Firebird (She/Her)
Note: "Let me burn freely, and fully. You'll let me do that, won't you?"
"You always fought with such passion, my love. Harken to my dance..."
Manifested from the Dancer job crystal. The voice that burns bright and pushes Minti forward, even in the darkest of days. May be a misremembered paramour, or even one of the Four Lords. (Mortals don't have love affairs with primals...do they?) Passion with tempered logic.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Soprano: The Frost Queen, She Made of Ice (She/Her)
Note: "I've been waiting to rejoin the Choir for a very long time. High time to grow my hoard..."
Originally manifested from the Dragoon crystal, but was abandoned in the Coerthas Highlands. Rejoined the Choir when Minti retook up the lance.
Used to take on the form of an ancient Ice Dragon, and may, in fact, be the spirit of one bound to the job crystal. Has a long memory and a dragon's hoard to match.
Experience. Acknowledgement of the past, remembrance of sins, and embrace of the future.
Tumblr media
Soprano: The Steel Queen, She Made of Machina (She/Her)
Note: "Loading standard greeting and designation....Hello. I am The Steel Queen. Standard operating procedures are in place."
Originally manifested from the Machinist job crystal. Currently manages Machinist and Sage, but Sage may be splitting off into their own voice.
Anticipation and proper procedure. The voice best suited for memorizing job rotations.
Tumblr media
Lead Alto: The Signora (pronounced Si-NO-rah) (She/Her)
Note: "Hello there. You aren't busy at the moment, are you? Of course, you are browsing your website, yes, but are you busy afterwards. We should talk."
The voidsent bound to Minti's Reaper crystal. Originally known as the Countess Alessandra. Before her world became enveloped in Darkness, she was a favored figure in the kingdom of Troia. Has a lovely singing voice. Is not proficient with the subtle art of assassination, who told you she is, that's a rumour.
Greed. The drive to see a difficult fight finished.
Tumblr media
Alto: The Knightly Mother (She/Her)
Note: "My face may be unfamiliar to you, but I am assured you know who I am. I am, as always, waiting and willing to take the reins from you, Warrior of Light.
Just say you have need of me, my friend.
I will never abandon you."
The darkness inside Minti's Dark Knight crystal. The collected memories of one Lady Sabbatine Treleaux - dark knight, matron of a fallen Ishgardian House, mother to a Viera who was a long way from home. Protector to the very last breath.
Friend, comfort, honor.
Tumblr media
Lead Bass: The Royal Volunteer, or Volunteer (He/Him)
Note: "No aethergraphs while I'm working! Please! What's that Au Ra doin' ther-"
Originally manifested from the Gunbreaker crystal. The classic Final Fantasy adventurer, always ready to do content, whether that's roulettes, raids, or delivering mail for the Deputy Post-Moogle. Many, many letters...
A big man with an even bigger heart, who wants to improve his skills when there's a chance. Getting in misadventures with Scions or friends is his bread and butter.
Reliability, friendship, love given freely and often.
---
And that's everyone! New voices will be added in future posts.
I hope this has been of some help to you, at least in understanding how Minti's Echo works.

This time appropriately at the 6-month mark(ish), if a bit too late...
So earlier this year, I made a resolution:
Get things off my desk and shelf it for good!
This... didn't really happen. I had shelved MtP, before fixing some more stuff again... I think it's shelved for good now? I hope so at least.
Another one was avoiding adding new projects to the pile (failed), entering jams and comps on a while (absolutely failed)...
There's still 6 more months to correct that (and so many new shiny jams to participate/organise), so maybe I will keep my promise? We will see...
Looking back first:
Tumblr media
(Damn it, it should say Chapter 4 in May... and missing the Orifice Comp in June...)
In the past 6 months:
I have been or helped with organising 4 game jams/competition: the @seedcomp-if, the Anti-Romance Jam (ongoing), the @neo-twiny-jam, and the Orifice Jam (ongoing)
I have participated in 5 other jams/competitions: the French Comp (which I won 🥳), the SpringThing, the Spring Jam (Twine Server), La Sens Dessus-Dessous, and the Text Adventure Literacy Jam.
All this saw the release of: DOL-OS, The Rye in the Dark City, The Roads not Taken, À la Campagne, Entre d'oeux Coquilles/An Eggcellent Preparation, Collision, Intersigne, and Clarence Street 14.
I also updated P-Rix - Space Trucker, and The Trials and Tribulations of Edward Harcourt (twice!).
And finally, I added the Settings Template, the Space/Tech Template, and lately, the SubgarCube Guide (along with answering SugarCube questions on this blog).
As one extra points, I reviewed a bunch of games too (@manonamora-if-reviews) and actually played games outside of Comp/Jam times.
It's been more busy than I think I realised... and I've done more than I thought I did (I really have been feeling like I've not done enough, that there was more I could have done, that I've wasted some my time...) So while progress on the planned things has not really been happening, or not as much as/the way I hoped (i.e. shelving projects), I did:
Make P-Rix mobile friendly, with some QoL (I still need to fix some)
Add 2 chapters for TTATEH (with one coming soon-ish?)
Actually released all the points about the templates from last January, with the Sci-Fi and Settings ones, and added the Guide on top of it.
On the other hand, Exquisite Cadaver and Crimson Rose & White Lily were more or less just pushed to the side. Other smaller games like La Petite Mort or Goncharov Escapes! have also not been opened in a while... And, having created new games, there's still the issue of finishing those (The Rye), or editing them a bit (all of them).
On the other other hand, I was able to test ideas and gameplay with those new lil games, try out new IF programs, win some prizes and get lovely reviews, played some really good games and learned from them through reviews...
...and most importantly: I've had loads of fun.
What now?
Preferably... fulfilling this year's resolution to shelve projects. So actually finishing them without crumbling under new WiP ideas. Aside from more jams I'll be organising, I probably won't be part of large comps. There are some ideas I want to test out still, so you may see new smaller things that I've done in like... a week, popping up here and there.
Concrete things to look forward to:
the new chapter of TTATEH dropping some time this summer (with potential of completion by the end of the year?????? <- infinite question marks)
fixing some issues of An Eggcellent Preparation and getting the French version up to speed.
the translation of Clarence Street, 14 (and fix of the UI, cause it's a bit of a mess)
the Disco Elysium inspired UI (I am this close with the base page, I still need the Main Menu, Class Choice, and Level/Inventory pages to finish)
more Guide pages (and a better organisation/linking)!
more jams!
more reviews!
For the rest... it is a bit more up in the air. I will try to complete/fix the smaller WiPs (especially the ones started this year) as fast as I can so I can go back to focusing on the larger projects (and the new ideas I've been stewing).
On to trying to fulfill my new year's resolution :D
And having fun while doing it!!
