two playthroughs later I still have no idea how to build communism

Holy wow it’s been a while. I got hyperfixated on slay the princess and have yet to recover drawing 160 pieces of art for it. I won’t say I haven’t improved because of it though.

Anyway here’s CCCC if Heart, Mind, and Soul functioned like the Disco Elysium skills; weird abstract guys popping up to tell you to do things or just to be weird.

Help I want to do a different playthrough of Disco Elysium but I am afraid of disappointing Kim.

[salty-an-disco]

I think Harry Du Bois and stp’s protagonist should sit down for tea together where they both just stare at each other wordlessly while the world’s most chaotic party/brawl/discussion is happening in a collective mind space where all their Skills and Voices can interact with each other.

Third eye opening moment. Drivers ed teacher Kim teaching in the same building as gym teacher Harry. Causes chaos amongst the student body. Could easily be in or out of canon.

again with the DE x CCCC crossover shit

[kevinthetarotreader]

Haven’t even properly set this thing up yet, but here’s a few tarot spreads using games as symbolic framework. Tarot was created as a game and evolved into a divination tool (the card game Tarot is actually still popular in France). It only makes sense that games, tabletop or digital, work well as components to use with it.

Answering some questions about Elysium!

Filling out this questionnaire for @sonic-oc-showdown so that everyone can know a little more about Ely!

(Questions under the cut)

✨- How did you come up with the OC’s name?

Chuggaconroy's playthrough of Xenoblade Chronicles 2 was fresh on my mind at the time, so I decided to pull a name from there! I first thought of naming it Aegis, but because I saw another OC who had that name already, I decided on Elysium instead, and I think that's for the better. (Plus I'd end up using the name Aegis for an original project later on, so naming it something else made things less confusing lol)

Elysium is a sort of heaven in Greek mythos, so I think it's pretty fitting for a character who's searching for a purpose as well as inner peace in life.

-

🌼 - How old are they? (Or approximate age range)

He's an android, so he's technically ageless. He's modeled after Shadow, who is 15 years old, so you could consider that his age as well.

If you wanna go chronologically, though, he's only existed for a little less than a year.

-

🌺- Do they have any love interest(s)?

Nope! No interest in romance. They don't really know what that feels like.

-

🍕 - What is their favorite food?

She doesn't have taste receptors or the ability to eat, unfortunately. She wishes she could try flan though, it looks so yummy...

Maybe one day...

-

💼 - What do they do for a living?

Thanks to Sonic's world being the way it is, it doesn't have to worry about working for money in the slightest.👍

It does wander the world and occasionally fight against Eggman, if that counts.

-

🎹 - Do they have any hobbies?

They have quite a few! They take up a lot of different hobbies trying to find what sticks. They like to study a lot of things, mostly culture, biology, astrology, and mythology, as well as travel the world with Livewire. They also really enjoy landscape photography, birdwatching, going to Chao Gardens, literally anything that allows them to study and learn about the nature around them.

-

🎯 -What do they do best?

For a good while, he didn't know what he was good at. Being discarded for his inability to fight like other Shadow Androids (among other imperfections) tore his self-esteem to shreds. It took a long time for him to feel like he could be good at anything.

In spite of that, he's got pretty good aim, even if he's unwilling to shoot anyone or anything. He also has near perfect memory (for better or for worse), and is a pretty good photographer.

-

🥊 -What do they love to do? What do they hate to do?

She loves to wander and explore new places, seeing new sights and listening to the world around her. She could sit outside for hours upon hours simply watching and hearing people pass by, birds fly overhead, plants shifting in the wind, anything she can notice in her environment. It's her favorite thing to do.

She absolutely hates fighting, even against Eggman's forces, though she knows she's doing the right thing by standing up against him. She hates having to draw her weapon against another and wishes she'd never have to. She also hates speaking. Her voicebox is faulty, so most of the time her voice comes out glitchy and wrong, if it comes out at all.

-

❤️ - What is one of your OC’s best memories?

Its best memories are often some of the most mundane. Waking up and stepping outside to a cool morning shower, watching the sunrise or the sunset, spending the day lazing around on the couch with Livewire and Nebula watching movies, traveling to new places...

The best out of all, though, is seeing the night sky for the first time. It had never seen it before during its short time with Eggman, but when it got to see it for the first time, lying on the grass and gazing up to the cosmos above, it was overcome with a feeling of awe, and of relief, too. It was the most beautiful thing it had ever seen.

-

✂️ - What is one of your OC’s worst memories?

Shadow Androids are put through a series of tests before they're considered suitable for deployment. Many of these are combat-based, or speed-based. Defeat a certain amount of enemies under a time limit, reach the goal in a certain amount of time, etc.

Elysium failed all of these.

Those who fail are to be torn apart by the other Shadow Androids, before being thrown out into one of Eggman's personal scrap yards.

They remember all of it, up until the moment their energy reserves ran out, and they completely shut down lying in a pile of scrap metal, completely unable to move.

Good thing Livewire eventually found them, huh?

-

🧊 - Is their current design the first one?

Yup! He hasn't gotten any redesigns yet, and I don't see him getting any in the foreseeable future.

-

🍀 - What originally inspired the OC?

I saw other people's Shadow Android OCs and Ely eventually popped into my head! I wanted to do something a little more unique with her, though. Most of the ones I've seen either still work for Eggman or rebelled against him, so I decide to make her defective from the start instead since I hadn't seen that before.

-

🌂 - What genre do they belong in?

Slice of life :]

-

💚 - What is your OC’s gender identity and sexuality?

It's agender and uses any pronouns! It hasn't figured out what it's sexuality is, though. Probably aroace.

-

🙌 - How many sibling does your OC have?

Do the hundreds of thousands of badniks currently online count as siblings? If so, they're all disowned by him.

-

🍎 - What is the OC’s relationship w/their parents like?

Eggman kiiiiiiinda counts as a parent right?

Yeah they hate him. Also disowned.

-

🧠 - What do you like most about the OC?

Her backstory. I love when robots who typically don't have any autonomy break away from their creators and original programming and find their own purpose <3

-

✏️ - How often do you draw/write about the OC?

Not enough 😔

-

💎 - Do you ever see yourself killing off the OC?

God no. If I ever do that I, I want you to shoot me in the head.

-

💀 - Does your OC have any phobias?

It has a crippling fear of failure, confrontation, and abandonment, due to its past experiences.

It also hates seeing dismantled robots. That's like gore to it. It begins to panic at the sight of it.

-

🍩 -Who is your OC’s arch-nemesis or rival?

Eggman is definitely their arch-nemesis. He's probably the only person out there they're willing to hurt, given the chance.

As for rivals, they don't have any. They're just not good rival material. They're way too nice and too avoidant of any kind of confrontation.

-

🎓 - How long have you had the OC?

Over a year now! I made him in June 2022 :]

-

🍥 - What age were you when you created the OC?

I made her just before my birthday in 2022, so I was almost 17! Time flies, huh.

-

And that's all! Thanks for reading!

God I love the end of disco elysium where Kim and Harry get married. Peak video game moment right there

[euclydya]

If I read the tags on the Anon message correctly, you have hyperfixations you enjoy talking about? Do you want to share anything about a current one? We'd be interested to learn what you enjoy

Oh yes!!! So right now we're super into gravity falls, we don't have. a Lot to say about it Really but just know that we are rotating the main cast in our head <== fictives. we have fictives of the main cast and then some hi I'm one of those fictives hi. uhhhhjj lemme think

SO BASICALLY it's a show abt 2 kids who get sent to stay with their great uncle for the summer because their parents are Having Relationship Issues iirc. WEIRDNESS ENSUES A LOT. Every fucking day they come across some supernatural bullshit. it's so fun. hut also it's 2024 and th9s show came out over a decade ago and it's getting a resurgence bc Book of Bill came out recently so if you hAVENT heard about it by now,,, how tbh HDDBDJSJDJFJS

sO that's our main hyperfixation rn!! really fun show if you haven't watched it yet season 1 is free on YouTube and we can help you find s2 for free also 👀 🤫

BESIDES THAT THOUGH a mainstay hyperfixation of ours is music!!!!!!! we LOOOOOOV sharing music with people!!! if you send us a song we'll give you a song rec back! sharing music with others is Very Important To Us and is our main way Of Bonding With People tbh. we have synesthesia also which plays into our love of music so very much (we have sound => colour synesthesia along with MANY OTHER TYPES, this means sound has colour for us) and we enjoy rambling about that too!!

such is the nature of the elysiumverse. Loki: anxiety spiraling so badly during Tory’s tender and gentle conversation with him(the same one I’ve been talking about we just kept having to pause) that he at last caves to the screaming instinct to run and hide and finally vanishes as per every previous pregnancy. me: LETTING him, flinging this with no idea what the fuck happens next. WITH BAITED BREATH.

…Fenixe and I: immediately stuck in a tangent of Tory like, playing 20 questions with Fjöer to try to give him food cause Fjöer’s the first person who flew in the kitchen the second after Loki left; Tory can’t understand wtf Fjöer’s saying when he chirps at him; I never translate when there isn’t anyone canon in the room who can understand him; & this is genuinely hilarious. (Fjöer - Loki’s son through and through - is actually trying to get Tory to hand him a mouse. he may not eat it, he just wants to see if he can get Tory to do it 😭) more pressingly HELLO??? LMAO WHAT ARE WE DOING??? WHIPLASH???we’re incredibly dumb. this is why nothing gets done around here
