tw: yandere, kidnapping/basement spousery, depression, mentions of noncon, gn reader characters: Crocodile, Sanji, Doflamingo, Law word count: 1.3k

One thing I learned recently is that I'm definitely a social creature and would get horribly, horribly depressed as someone's basement wife, even a well entertained one. All the books, the crafts, the soft music in the world couldn't prevent me from sobbing into my pillows, couldn't get me to crawl out of bed and to paint a smile on my face. Oh, but how would your captor react? For some, it's definitely a necessary evil - Crocodile comes to mind here. Annoyed by your lethargy, by your random tears and your meek, taciturn responses, he finds himself frustrated at times. This state of mind really isn’t ideal - he wanted you docile, sure, but not lifeless. Yet it's also awfully convenient when you just let him push you around, let him caress and touch you - and not out of fear of him, simply because you don't care to struggle. He discovers that he can forgive a lot when you're especially shaken and cling to him, bury your head in his chest because he's the only human you'll ever know again and the world is so bleak around you and you just need him right now. Of course, it would be nicer if you didn't do it because he's the only warm-blooded creature that you interact with, but he'll take what he can get. (And with time, it weirdly grows on him: him turning into the center of your life, the way your eyes seem to light up the tiniest bit when he comes home to you, something he thought mildly annoying at first turning out to be awfully convenient.)

To others, it's devastating. Sanji lives for your smiles, your warmth, the way your eyes crinkle and you jut your head forward when you fully, genuinely laugh - total apathy is worse than antagonism to him. If you were to scream, shout, put your fingers around his neck and squeeze with the desperation of a cornered prey animal, he'd at least get a reaction, some signs of life out of you. But you don't even do that. You just sit and try to suppress tears while he holds your hand. Sometimes he just cries with you, letting himself fall into the same hole you're being pulled into. It makes him regret taking you so utterly, bitterly, makes him feel all those memories from when he was a child bubble up in his stomach until they force themselves out and he has to vomit to be rid of them. He’s just like his father, he thinks, and it makes him sick. He’s rotten down to the very core, cursed from birth and now he has gone and soiled you, too - he’ll end up sobbing into the crook of your neck more than once, full of genuine remorse. And all you’ll be able to do is absentmindedly pat his hair, thoughts spilling like an knocked over ink well. No, you slipping into a deeply depressive state is only going to worsen the hatred he has for himself, is going to poison him slowly and steadily until he’ll be in agony. Maybe it’s his just punishment.

Then there are the ones like Doflamingo who simply don’t care. You don’t crawl out of bed until noon? You just stare into space or bury yourself in books when you finally do? You’re just lifeless by his side, just blink, shrug your shoulders when spoken to, just exist? Whatever, he has always treated you like a doll from the start. He can even weather the elusive bouts of sobbing and crying (even if he hates it when they happen), because most of the time you’re just his poseable thing and he is nothing if not generous to allow you a tantrum here and there. He doesn't feel bad about you being a more of a hollowed out shell of a person than a fully-fledged human with a rich inner life and doesn't care that most of it is his fault - his fault that you fester and rot beneath the surface, his fault that all the opulent, vibrant clothing and the scorching hot days by the pool still leave you frosty and weirdly bloodless, like a cold-blooded creature in winter. Food is ash in your mouth and only sours your stomach but you still eat when he tells you to, touches feel foreign and loveless but you still let him fuck you if he so wishes. Why should he care what circles around in your head when he gets to do anything he wants to you? That you feel like life is no luster, only desperation? The truly bothersome parts are taken care of by his myriad of servants and the family. Messes left behind get cleaned up, baths are forced on you regularly, as are grooming sessions. If you don’t get dressed on your own either someone else will see to it or he will - and he’ll have his payment for his time, trust me. The solemn mood, the non-existent smiles… he doesn't care for that. You’re not here for your entertainment, you’re here for his. And you just accepting your fate and letting him do whatever it is he wants… That’s just perfect, isn’t it?

Of course, let’s not forget about the ones who secretly love it. Law is a prime example, especially with his medical background. He isn’t surprised that your mood sways - he expected as much when he restricted your every move, declared the outside world to be too unhealthy for you. Of course you’d slip into a depressive episode. And it’s not a flaw, it’s intentional. Because now - now, when you can’t peel yourself out of bed, when everything feels too much, when you can’t feed or move or dress or take care of yourself- he gets to swoop in. He gets to do it for you, gets to tell you that he’s here and that he’ll always catch you when you fall. That his assessment of your condition was accurate - that you always needed him, right from the start. Dependency is worth more than all the love in the world to him. It simply doesn’t matter if you’d rather slit his throat than to behave for him out of your own volition - as long as you can’t leave. Even if he genuinely loves you, he’s not deluded enough to cling to daydreams of him and you living a quiet, happy life full of reciprocated affection, that ship has long sailed - sailed ever since his childhood got irrevocably destroyed. No. Love is nice and good and makes him wash you gladly, makes him care for you with delicate hands and with a patient brow - but your sickness makes you stay, renders you unable to leave him. It’s the only currency he can trade in when it comes to you. He’s your savior and tormentor rolled into one person; but above all he is the only one who cares and will forever care. You could rot yourself into a pathetic, sweat-soaked, disgusting corner, could turn into nothing but a husk and he’d always, always nurse you out of the ditch he’s found you in, just at the right time.  What he doesn’t tell you is that he could help you. At least artificially. Boost your moods with SSRIs until you bounce off the walls with nervousness and sweat thrice as much; make you giddy and shaky until you get used to the dose. Until the world seems worth living in once more, until at least some color returns to your drab eyes. He could get you the medication, even try some speech therapy, could help you like a good boyfriend should. But why? It makes no sense. Why help you only to get some fire back, maybe even for you to slip through his fingers? It’s easier to sit in twosome silence with tired eyes watching him, eyes that one day might be grateful for all the work he has put into them. Until then, it’s of utmost importance that they stay right where they are: in a cramped, dirty corner of a bed, dull and lifeless.

Had an infinetly better idea for the minecraft movie. (Wether its a good idea or not is debatable, but i feel its infinetly better than what we got.)

So the plot centers around 2 characters: a mother and her daughter. The daughter is well into her teen's now and is obssessed with the game minecraft to the point where its taken over her whole life. Every second she gets, she spends it playing minecraft. She spends it building her world, and escapeing a rather bleak reality.

She doesnt have freinds, her school sucks, the world feels like its going to shit due to financal struggles with her family, and she feels lost and helpless. It doesnt help that her relationship with her mother has strained due to her dads death. And minecraft gives her a break from all that. A way to tune everything else out from her life, and just chill out for once. And it gets to the point where she's dependent on it, where she needs it in order to get through the day.

It doesnt help either that her dad was the one who introduced her to the game. He grew up with the game in his preteens/teens and thusly wanted his daughter to get that experience aswell. Every weekend, the two would spend hours playing it, and its how they really bonded. So when he died, it became her way of mourning him, of remembering him. But that mourning quickly spiraled out of control as every hour she spends, is playing that game. Something that doesnt sit right with her mom.

Now, her and her mom were never too close: her mom was always working after all, so she never got to spend too much time with her. But things got a lot worse once the dad died. Because truthully, the mom and the dad were in a failing marriage. They were in debt, a lot of debt, due to hospital bill's, and the mom knew the money she earned wouldn't be enough to pay it all off. so, she wanted the dad to get a job. But since the daughter was pretty young at the time, the father didnt want to because then there wouldnt be anyone at home to take care of her, (since he knew they couldnt afford a babysitter.)

But in the mothers mind, it wouldnt matter if there was noone at home to take care of her because it was better than the alternative: haveing to sell the house or the car in order to be able to pay off their debts on time.

This argument highliting their very different viewpoints when it came to their family: The father being more focused on the happiness and wellbeing of the family, while the mother was more focused with keeping their family afloat.

But the arguments about their debt wouldnt matter when the father started to get sicker and sicker. Of course, the mother insisted that he go to the hospital to get it checked out, but he refused. They couldnt afford another hospital visit, so if he did go, then he deffinetly wouldnt be able to stay home anymore to care for their daughter.

Although, despite his protests, he was eventually forced to go by the mother when he could barely walk anymore. Which led to him getting diagnosed with stage 3 cancer. Something, they didnt have the money to treat.

It was during that time when the daughter really got her obsession with minecraft. It wasnt as bad as when the dad passed, but there is deffinetly when it took its hold. She'd play it when she heard her parents screaming at eachother in the living room, she'd play it for hours just to take her mind off of her dads diagnosis, and she'd sob to herself when she walked through their world after he had passed. To her, playing it made her feel like he was still there, like she was back to when she was a little kid, and everything seemed to hopefull. She doesnt have to worry wether or not they'll have food on the table, or if she'll have to eat lunch by herself at school, or even if she'll have a house by the end of the year, she can just relax and play minecraft. Leading to her driffting apart from her mother, as she spent less time with her, and more time playing the game. Something the mother really never got.

To the mother, the game wasnt important, it was just some damn pixels on a screen. She doesnt get the signifigence it holds to her daughter. How can it matter more, then haveing dinner together? Or going to hang out together when she got the time? Or just being together in general? She gets that she wasnt there that often, but surely that shouldnt lead to her daughter placeing some damn, stupid, video game over her!

Id imagine that they'd have some arguments over this at the beggining of the movie. Showcasing how despite her best attempts to bond with her daughter, she just cant get through to her. This leads to a scene which highlightes just how deep this rift has gone.

In a fit of rage at another dissconnected response through the door, the mother barges in and demands a conversation, something the daughter avoids. She doesnt want to have a conversation afterall, she just wants to go back to playing minecraft after a particuallarly shitty day. Of course the mother yells at her about it, how this stupid game has taken over her life. But the daughter doesnt care, insisting its fine and to just leave her alone already. This sparks the mothers anger, leading her to call it insignifigent, which in turn, sparks the daughters anger. With her saying: "well its far more better than being with you!"

One shouting match later and the mother decides that if she cant get through to her babygirl because of this stupid game, then she'll just get rid of it! And in the heat of the moment, she trashes the computer. (Now, wether this is what ends up transporting to the game, or is the catalyist to what forces them to have to go into the game in order to fix things doesnt matter. The important point here is, its there rift that forces them to go into minecraft.)

Now, an important thing to point out is that neither of them are in the right. Yes the daughters obssession is unhealthy, but the mother refuses to try and see how much this game matters to her and why.

And resolving these problems is the whole plot of the movie, minecraft being the needed setting and catalyst for them to do so.

The daughter needs to learn to move on and heal from her dads death, and to let go of her obssession with minecraft, and the mother needs to actually try to understand her daughter. Up until this point, she's only been trying to bond with the daughter she used to know, not the one thats infront of her. And she needs to accept that things are different, her daughter has changed, and she needs to support the one that she has right now.

Now, i dont have solid idea for their time in minecraft, but i do have specific points:

Maybe the thing driving into this world, is that its slowly being corrupted because of what the mother did, and now they have to fight the great evil that has been released. (Its herobrine, im self indulgent like that.)

Now, in order to defeat herobrine they have to bring back his twin: steve. Though its deffinetly tough getting there, with them being kinda carried by the daughters technical knowledge, since she deffinetly has over 10,000 hours invested in this game.

This roadtrip lets them bond a little and grow to appreciate eachother more, of course, theyre bickering at the start of it, but decide that they really need to bash their heads together if they want to sort things out.

I feel like a lot of the early bonding would be from the daughter teaching the mother the ropes of the game. Like how to mine wood, how to make a crafting table, and what mobs are freindly and which to avoid.

An early joke in the first act, would be the mom trying to craft a wooden pickaxe by only useing wooden planks and the daughter internally dying inside from cringe. So much so that she visibly recoils from the unholy act.

I'd also imagine that they'd pick up a dog on the way which the daughter obsesses over. She ends nameing him alphredo, because of his white coat. The mom does not like the dog, thinking the name is stupid and that they're a distraction, but eventually grows very attached to alphredo.

Speaking of distractions, this is where the mother really comes in handy: keeping both her and the daughter on track. Naturally, from being in her favorite game, the daughter wants to do everything! She wants to punch wood, go to the nether, build a house, but they dont have time for that. Plus, they are on hardcore mode.

Another way the mother helps out is that she ends up haveing to do a lot of the physical labor, because despite being in a game, they still have human bodies (even if theyre blocky now) and being a gamer does not bode well for the daughters physical capabilities. As for why the mother has a lot of physical strength, i think the explination would be that she used to be an professional bodybuilder/boxer before she met and married the dad. Something the daughter had zero clue about before the mom mentions which is a conversation that i think would go before like this:

*the daughter pants from exaughstion at punching trees down. Takeing a moment to catch her breath before glancing over to the mom, who hasnt even broke a sweat yet.*

...

"how are you-"

"I was a proffesional boxer in my 20s."

*more silence.*

"You.-... theres no shot."

"W- wha?-"

"Theres no way, that you were a professional boxer, and i didnt know about it!"

"I- patricia i litterally have several gold metals at ho-"

"GOLD MEDLE-... shut the fuck up, you are lying."

"Lying?-"

"Theres no way you have a single gold medal- you are LYING!"

"We have a whole shelf for them at home-"

"Blah, blah, blah, blah! I cant hear you; thats absolute bullshit." *the daughter plugs her ears with her fingers.*

"Oh come on- right now?"

"Yes right now! If there was damn shelf, i would have seen it already!"

"Oh like you get out of your room enough to do that-"

"IM SORRY! i cant seem to hear youre ABSOLUTE SLANDER right now!"

*cue the mom trying to talk, while the daughter yells "la la la la la la" and breifly interjecting over her.*

Id also imagine theres a scene where the daughter struggles to kill the sheep, because now they actually seem alive and its eating her alive. Also, it would probobly go something like this:

"Mmh... can we please eat something else! I dont can't do it!"

"Honey, we dont have time to make a farm, you're going to have to kill the sheep."

"But hes so cute!"

"Dear, it is litterally just a bunch of pixels clumped together."

"Well its a very adorable bunch of pixels, that leans up for head patts every time i get close, okay!"

"Its either the sheep or us right now love! Because we have about 8 minutes before our hunger bar drops-"

"Okay fine!"

*the daughter turns twards the sheep, sword raised above her head, as tears form in her eyes.*

"Im so sorry truffles."

Oh, my god, it has been less than a minute and you have already NAMED IT?-"

"Its big, its fluffy, and it has beady little eyes, of COURSE i named it!"

"Patricia-"

"Shut up! Im already doing it."

Now both of those would be scenes before steve comes along because it strengthens their relationship before the metaphorical sledgehammer steve brings crashing down on them. Why is steve like a sledgehammer you may ask? Well its because he looks exactly like the dad. And also kind of acts like him too.

Steve is essentially going to be a tool plot wise to further advance the mothers ark. To push the mother to understand her daughter more, or at least try to. To get her to recognize where she fucked up, and try ot fix it. Because while she is hard headed, she loved the dad. She obsolutely did, and although she never showed it much to the daughter, due to being bogged down with responsibility, she was devistated after his death. Which leads to another character flaw of her's: haveing a hard time showing emotion. After the dad died, for the first couple of years, the mother closed herself off. Of course she was greiving in private, but she kept a brave face for her daughter, didnt want her to see just how much shit they were really in. Of course, the daughters not stupid, she saw through some of the charade, but it left her with the impression that the dads death didnt really affect the mother which is the farthest from the truth. It doesnt help that the mother still tries to keep up this brave face even afterwards, which just perpetuates it.

Steve, looking like the father, forces her to really confront and bring out that vulnerable part of herself. That vulnerable part, that never really moved on from the dads death, who still misses him. That tender part, that nearly sobs at the sight of him again.

That tender part, the part that missed him and never quite moved on after so many years, is what makes her a lot less stubborn to steves suggestions. Sure, she was a lot more stubborn before, but that was before he died, before she had to suffer through the loss, and experience what life was like withought him. And that experience, those years of mourning and stress, and wishing she had just let him have his wau just a bit more before the end, makes her a lot more receptive to steves ideas. And eventually, makes her admit that "yeah, she was in the wrong in some ways. And yeah, she couldve handled everything a whole lot better."

And it also preps her to try more. To make a lasting change and effort for her daughter in the third act. I think at the end of the second act, before they go toe to toe with herobrine, she has a heart to heart with steve, talking about how unsure she is as a mother. How scared she is. Of how she feels like she's loseing her baby. And steve reasures her, saying that while she didnt do the best from the sounds of it, she did what she could. And now, that she knows what her problem is, she can fix it. To make things right, and try better this time.. to do better by her daughter. I think he also would explain the daughters point of view to her aswell, since he would have deffinetly spent a lot of time talking with her aswell up to this point. And him explaining the daughters point of view would nudge her in the right direction of trying to understand her current daughter better. Not the past one, not the one that was 8 years old, but the current one that she has. Of course, shes still resistant somewhat, still doesnt fully get it, but she's deffinetly on her way there

But steve wouldnt just forward the mothers ark aswell, it would also push forward the daughters ark... just not in the right direction. Because at seeing steve (who practically is her dad) in the game, her favorite game, a game thats been the only highlight of her life until now... she has to wonder... why leave? If everything she wants is in here.. why cant she stay? Now, its never said outloud but its deffinetly an implyed thought between every scene between her and steve. Where she slowly stops treating him like steve, and more like her dad. Until the point where she slips up, and just straight up calls him by her dads name.

Now, steve isnt the dad, he doesnt have his memorys. But he certainly does look and sound like him, and to a degree, he acts like him.. and thats more than enough for the daughter to start confuseing him with the real thing. (Something that will come up later.)

Also, side note, im not wure if it will be in the second act or in the third act.. but the dog, alphredo, thats been with them since the begining will die eventually. This is mainly to get the mother to really understand how much this game is important to her daughter, and why it is. Because its not only the daughter thats greiving the dog, but the mother as well. Because despite it being just a clump of pixels, it was important to them. They spent time with it, played with it, bonded with it. And oh, this is why this game is so important to her daughter. Its not just the time spent, its the memories too. Sure its a game, but the emotions put into it were real. The time they spent together, how much theyve bonded because of it, that was real. And looking back, and remembering the times she would come home to her husband and her daughter laughing up a storm in the living room as they bonded over this stupid game, that mattered. And regardless of if she doesn't get it, or if it seems silly, its signifigent to her daughter and thats what matters most. Its her daughters care for it, that should make it important to her aswell.

This moment, is what gets her to change her approch, and actually try to understand the girl infront of her. To actually try to talk with her. (Even if it might be a little too late.)

Remember what i said said about the daughter wanting to stay in the game comeing up later?... and remember the part where i mentioned that steve and herobrines were twins. Yeah, thats the main point in the third act.

Because if steve looks like the dad, and herobrine is steve's twin.. then guess what herobrine looks like? The dad. Which makes fighting him even harder for both the mother and the daughter.. especially for the daughter.

Now i dont know when he would do this, but eventually everything will come to a climax where herobrine tries to make a deal with the daughter: he'll let her stay in this perfect, ideal world forever... if she lets him do what he wants to do. And the cherry on top is, he does this, while pretending to be her father.

(Now depending on the plot, the dog dying might come before or after this, not sure, but either way it happens close to this scene.)

Now, her accepting isnt the part im super sure about, but either way it ends in the mother having to talk her down or out of it.

Originally, she keeps that strong face, tries to be logical about it, to reason with her.. trying to employ the most steadfast logic she can think of, but her daughter seems set. Especially when the face of her father is begging her to do so.. and it seems like the whole deal is about to go through, until... the mother apologieses. It comes out of nowhere, a two letter sentance that the daughter has never heard the other utter to her before. And it gets her to pause.

The mother takes that as a sign that she should continue.

For this moment, she casts logic asside and just decides to level with her. To be honest for once. To tell her how she's feeling and to just be.. human with her. Being completly honest, she wants this, she wants to stay here so bad too. She misses her husband so bad. She wants to stay with him so bad. To hug him one last time, but she knows its not real. No matter how much she wants it to be, her husband is dead and theres nothing that will change that.

This prompts the daughter to open up to her aswell, even if its a little bit at first, the crack is enough, and soon wnough the two of them have what they've needee for so long now:

A conversation.

Not screaming at eachother, not hurried dissmisles. Or half hearted attempts at trying to return things to "how they used to be." But a full on, genuine, heart to heart.

And thats enough to get the daughter to step down. And focuse on defeating herobrine with her mother.

Im thinking as a way of closeing out the daughters unhealthy obsession with minecraft, the world gets deleted. Getting rid of years of memorys, sure, but also setting up a way to make new one's, as at the very end the daughter comes home to see the mother on the couch with two laptops out in the livingroom for them to play minecraft together on. Or course the daughters obsession isnt fully gone, and its something they'll still need to work on, but theyre not going through it alone. As shown by the mother trying to bond and understand the daughter by the end, by engaging with her in her hobby.

Also, they made a memorial for alphredo in the kitchen, and are looking to buy a dog that looks kinda of like him... when they have the money of course, since they still arnt out of debt just yet.

They didnt get a perfect ending, they're still going through a rough patch, but they're going to make it through it together now.

For the credits, i'd imagine it be pictures of adventures through minecraft, but also some drawings of the mother haveing the daughter to try out new hobbies. (Knitting, running, boxing, and other stuff)

Further proof of them trying to get the daughter better copeing habbits would be at the end credit scene where shes either practicing one, reserching how to improve her copeing mechanisms, or engaging in a new hobby at the end, before her mom calls her over. She hasnt been in her moms room in a while, (from spending most of her time playing minecraft) so its a lot different from what she remembers. But she's more floored by the wall full of gold medals and trophies that her mom finnally gets to show off to her, like she promised.

Anyhow, thats just my take on how i'd do a minecraft movie. Obviously its not the most fleshed out idea, more like a rough draft that i wrote up as i went a long. But i feel like its infinetly better than whatever we're getting, so i thought i'd put it out there.

Also, i wrote all of this in one sitting, so sorry if it doesnt flow well, or parts dont make sense, or theres grammer errors. Its late, and i do not have time to reread it. Apologies. Anyways, feel free to give critisism, critique is welcome, i'd love to see other peoples take on this and how they'd improve on it, or what they'd add to it. Or maybe what they'd do differently. Who knows. Also, if you need me to elaborate on something, feel free to ask.

Eepy time

I literally am unable to right now

I have had 2 coffees in the past few hours and am currently working my way through another, and I am BUZZING

Unfortunately I am also dizzy and lightheaded and shaky and way more hyperactive than usual but oh well. I don't like this stage after drinking a lot of coffee :(

[xiii-e]

XIII▸So. This is the brief I promised. Lets talk about the Projects

◂▸ We'll go through the basics first, yeah? Go over what we have clearance to share in loose terms, this probably isn't a totally unfamiliar concept to most people. A lot of the Corps have a division for any research they don't want a name put to.

XIII▸ It's understandable enough as a practise. Protection of company interests is a priority for any major opperation, especially regarding any work that could be done concerningly poorly by a less well-staffed or well-funded team.

◂▸ ... yeah, that's sure the company line. So, the Projects- not the most specific name in the world, covers a lot of things. It's the catchall for anything secrative, and I won't be going into stuff that's not relevent to us, but what's useful to know for our correspondence is that if you hear us talk about Projects when refering to people? Those people are clones, like us. The Project series in particular is what we fall under.

XIII▸ Project Soldiers are designed with specifications of service in mind; the first series, Project One: Talos, was your generic super soldier gene profile, but they've honed in on various tasks and traits over the decades. Take myself, for instance, as the prototype for Series Thirteen- when I describe myself as specialised medical and engineering personnel for field opperations, I mean it down to the dna. I'm wholly intended for the purpose I serve :}

◂▸ mhm... so, that's where our names come from too. Prototypes serve as the root genetic profile for Series, and they'll be named after the project as a whole. After that, it's usually some kind of proper noun and your series number. Hence, Helios-8; proper noun, series number. My line was meant for techie stuff, so we're not exactly hench but have trigger reflexes. Bastard annoying sometimes...

XIII▸ You're flinchy

◂▸ :[ yeah. But- as I have to stress (contractually) a lot of strides have been made in the cloning field since the seccom days. Any major hinks are worked out of the system, as far as either of us are aware we opperate at normal human capacity, if not better in our specialised ways. Any... flaws of production are strictly aesthetic these days.

XIII▸ And we do good work, when deployed well. My line for instance, is intended to save lives on the battlefield- I'm sturdy, stable and evoke a sense of trust :} not to mention capable of expedited healing, so I can get back out there into the thick of things on short notice. I'm even a universal blood donor, in cases of emergency-

◂▸ We're not giving the sales pitch here, cmon leave that to corporate. But to round off my little speech, and to assuage any concerns our general existance may have raised, the FC Project series is a limited scope, highly speculative investment intended to reduce friction caused by Purview expansion, by ensuring the best possible people are in the roles that matter. Superior by Design, and all that.

XIII▸ Harrison Armory takes its commitments seriously. Every Project soldier that comes out of production is created for purpose, with every consideration made to the weight of that decision; each one of us fulfils our role to the fullest extent, and we make Purview space a more stable place doing it.

◂▸ ... so, that's the basic rundown. Projects, as people, are specialist genetic profiles put together through painstaking research and all that stuff about commitments or whatever. We're pretty much all soldiers of some description at some point in our lives but, so are most HA citizens.

XIII▸ If you have any further questions I'm sure we would both be happy to field them, to the extent we have clearence too. I hope this was informative!

// loading echo.exe ... //... //... // now running echo.exe

XIII▸ ... you look sick.

◂▸ That might be because I feel sick. Fuck I hate having to say all that litigation warding, covering their asses type of shit-

XIII▸ It's a bit much in places, maybe.

◂▸ It's straight out lies in some places and you know it.

XIII▸ ... my migraines are- they're manageable. So long as I take my medication on the field, it's like they're not even there.

XIII▸ Well... thank you, for sticking to the script anyway. You know I don't want to see you get in any more trouble for my sake.

◂▸ [sigh] yeah, yeah I know. Sorry for springing all this legal, half-assed whistleblower crap on you in the first place, I just-

XIII▸ You don't have to explain yourself to me, Lio. You're doing what you think is right, even if I don't really get it.

◂▸... I hope one day, you will.

XIII▸ I am as the company wants me to be, Lio. You know that. It's how I'm programmed.

◂▸ I-

XIII▸ Don't try to start that argument again.

◂▸ People aren't programmed, Turtie-

XIII▸ And I'm not a person, Lio.

[silence]

XIII▸ ...and please, call me by my name? I know you don't like it but again, I don't-

◂▸ -want me to get in trouble, for your sake. Yeah, I know.

XIII▸ I am trying, you know. To learn, how to bend the rules. But I can't break them.

◂▸ No, I- I know... Thirteen-E.

XIII▸ :}

◂▸ ... ack, we logged all of that didn't we. Welp. I'm not rerecording it so, posted it is. Did mention this thing would be kind of like a diary.

◂▸ Signing off.

Somehow 6 asks about WIPs felt like 60...

Y'all made me realize a LOT of my WIPs are just mostly unintelligible scribbles meant to just get an idea down quick, and not good enough to post 🥲 I need to improve how I sketch but idk how

Oc stuff I've been cooking in my head thenlast few days

I'm trying to move away from the standard fantasy race things and tldr I think elves might be from space?

Lemme elaborate a little. So my origional setting is kinda riffing on Disco Elysium with reality pockets separated by vast unexplored expanses of The Horrors, my current thing is travel between these is primarily over water through what are essentially submarines. But. I also kind of want the rival empire to my main one to be aeronautically focused, like okay yall nailed sea travel at this point so fuck you we got airships. But then I get to thinking. Why would going too far up be any different than going too far across-

....post canceled I just realised I think I accidentally recreated Githyanki
