#coding is going to be rough

[i-spook-and-seek]

My name is Katt and I've decided that I'm going to make a visual novel. I will have to learn how to code, as well as do all my own art, writing, music etc. To keep myself on task I'm going to try and post the characters here when I'm done with their designs essentially.

I'll also post any updates or stuff just to keep me on task as well as measure my progress.

The world I'm creating is based on a DND campaign I'm playing in so Ill be referring to characters by race and class stuff. The world is built as a bunch of floating islands in a cloud sea in the sky.

So here's my first character:

His name is Dendinor (Dendy for short). He is an elf barbarian who is also a vegetarian from the island of Villa Osa. He is part of a crew of misfit adventurers you will meet in the game. He's not very smart but makes up for that with lots of heart (and muscle). You also wouldn't be able to tell just by looking at him but he is a bit of a gambling addict. Part of his adventuring party encourages the gambling while the other part tries to keep him out of trouble.

did buck and leo get the same powers their parents had, or are they different? and as a superhero, is leo trying to emulate his dad or more do his own thing with the captain armstrong persona?

also for a while i thought buck was the younger sibling, and him actually being the older sibling makes the whole "ran away to become a villain" situation juicier. like as the oldest child he was probably under extra pressure to Carry On The Legacy

they kinda did - Leo's powers are basically exactly the same as their dad's super-strength powers. Buck, meanwhile, kind of got a "pick one" deal from their mom, who was a Wonder Woman-esque Possibly Literal Demigoddess with a whole suite of powers at her disposal, and he's now superhumanly durable-slash-heals from injuries much much faster than the average joe. Leo's very much trying to emulate his dad in his current heroism, with only minor differences - he's (at least in public appearances) a little more wisecrack-y and jovial than the first Captain Armstrong, who was personable enough but a little more stoic about superheroism. Leo's much more "guy who will play himself in a commercial" about it.

and yeah, Buck was Very Very Much under pressure as the firstborn Armstrong kid - the public story is that he resorted to villainy after his little brother got named the successor instead of him, but like, the only people who know the real story are him, Leo and their dad (dead), none of whom are much inclined to publicly reflect on the occasion in any great detail.

would love to listen to the promises promises playlist if you were ever comfortable sharing it!! You know I love playlists loll

OH yeah ofc!! Here you go!!!

I tried to put the songs a bit in order but bc a lot of these are not just related to plotbeats or character moments but are just in there bc they help with my writing mood as well, that turned out to be harder than i thought lmao

Hope you enjoy tho!! <33

Actually writing down project stuff and trying very hard but not being brave at all about the fact I'm having to genuinely look at the reader and explain fantasy racism and the colonizer horse people. This all feels very stupid I am not going to lie

Felix and Chan actually getting to keep their occa aussiness will always be inherently funny to me, but also it is really cute.... makes me a lil :'')

still no funded phd projects that i can apply for and that i can commute to without moving out:( been having a massive career crisis lol. my two paths i've been thinking about is an apprenticeship route, either into healthcare/medical or data tech/analyst kinda stuff

in my head, if i get good at data stuff i can do a phd after with those skills or go into a computational biology job. then if i end up in an nhs medical-type apprenticeship, i can have a bio career progressing, there or even go back and do a health-related phd project

i suppose there's no rush and a paid apprenticeship to get that work experience in a rough job market is worthwhile, even if it takes longer!!

oh don’t act like you wouldn’t bust a u-ey, flirtatiously shove a dead body out of your car and offer a cheeky “going my way?” if you saw will graham standing by the side of the road, we’d all do it.

Thinking about TTPD and “you don’t get to tell me about sad” unlocked a memory of my parent having a self-flagellation moment after broaching a somewhat difficult topic and when I tried to be brave and finally speak up about that and tell them that when they did that, it then put the onus on me to comfort and reassure them instead of actually discussing the issue at hand and their response was “no it doesn’t, I’m just telling the truth, I am terrible and this is why…” which then made me drop the issue altogether and reinforced that I cannot ever actually say how they make me feel and attempt to heal anything because everything will always be a slight against them instead of trying to open up communication between us…

(As though it were the Sadness Olympics and just because they suffered terribly their whole life gave them supremacy in feeling awful and nobody else’s pain held weight in comparison… 🙃)

Yeah I feel like I’m going to feel this album so incredibly deeply I’m going to go catatonic because I know I’m picking up what she’s putting down lmao
