#cy Oracle MC

[criminallyyoursvn]

A recent commission I got for Nik/Chronos and our Oracle Delphi 💙💜

I’m so in love with it gosh 😭

My Oracle (I call Laurie) & Nikolas/Chronos Fanart Inspired by screencaps from the Re: Cutie Honey Opening

I plan in the future on doing a more updated or detail design on the Oracle costume, though I hope this version will do. 😅

[criminallyyoursvn]

How aware was Nik of Oracles crush on his 9-5 persona

Hyper aware. He knew fully the MC was into him at least when the story starts, it took him some time admittedly.

NEW HORSE NAMES

This morning, SSO releases a bunch of new options for first and second horse names. I've tried to sort through and pull which are new.

Maddie the baddie fr! I love all the details of this character, tysm for sharing 🥺

My Criminally Yours Oracle, Maddie. "Wait, isn't that--?" Yup. Because all my VN player/reader/MCs are just poorly disguised self-inserts in different cosplays.

(I like to think they're all multiverse variants of the same person)

I wanted her costume to be the inverse of Chronos colorwise, but also since it belonged to her mom, it doesn't reflect her tastes or personality. Chronos' color scheme would be more to her taste (hence the blue glasses frames), but "Oracle" is a legacy to be inherited, not a path she can forge for herself (this TOTALLY isn't a source of any deep-seated resentment, what are you talking about?) And speaking of the glasses, no, she isn't Clark Kent-ing; girl is blind as a bat, can't see a foot in front of her face without them. She uses contacts as Oracle- colored ones (hence the yellow eyes) to further hide her identity.

(Oracle is mos def the least "Maddie-like" of all the visual novel MCs I imagine, tho, because I will never truly be able to gel with an insert-type character whose canonical favorite genre of music is anything but rock or metal.)

🧿| ORACLE (CYvn MC)

hehe finally drew my version of Oracle's Superhero Outfit from Criminally Yours vn.

Small lore details , wip thoughts , alt wip ss , some imagines , ideas dump ,and theories if you squint under the cut:

💥👓💥👓💥👓💥👓💥👓💥👓💥👓💥👓

Starting with the design piece that I love : Eye shaped witch hat. I absolutely wanted that to be a part of this. Also making the oracle face mask black was due to this , I wanted to imitate the pupil of an eye. At the right angle this looks like a purple eye looking at you. Now imagine the city posters being a purple eye looming over you and the small time villains constantly checking over their shoulder to see if any purple eye is in sight (the posters end up jumpscaring them lol). RAD if I must say so myself.

I wanted the design to be very cryptid. sort of scary. But with the added pop of vibrant colours i didn't achieve that. Though the oracle mask only being glowing eye holes sort of feels disconnected from normal humans. Big reason why the mask is 'faceless' and 'expressionless'. Now imagine oracle looking down at you and all you see (in the right lighting and right angel) is a big purple eye (hat) with glowing pupils looking at you.... hehehe (these ideas are all going into my to be drawn list lolol)

Predicting the future is sort of considered a witchy practice so I think it's a neat detail.

I am kind of conflicted with how vibrant the cape colors turned out , i sort of like them for the reason I added them but I feel like they are a bit too bright . Maybe the lore reason would be to make oracle costume more distinct and hence more marketable. i do think that kids love oracle the hero and I want you to imagine civilian Mc going about their day and seeing random kids in a kid sized gradient cloaks. They would be proud of their work as a hero I think. I do managed to keep the cloak's color values stable so I do think that it would look better in night light. maybe it will look duller and darker in night scene... i need to test that out.... (tosses another idea into my to be drawn list)

NOW for the reason i made blue+red the color gradient is because...... *drum roll*..... i dreamt about it!! I had a dream where my oracle was wearing a hero outfit with a COMPLETE blue + red gradient as their color scheme. I HAD to include that it was destined in the fates.... i got an oracle about my oracle ... this is meant to be...

originally the cape wasn't even planned but after that dream I had a prophecy to fulfill LOLL

The colors coincidentally match with the two leads of CY!! I told you it's meant to be!! Blue being Chronos' color and red being associated with a Thesis so far. AND the mix of blue and red is purple.... Oracle's color.... coincidence? i think not. I color picked the gradient transition where it's purple to get 'Oracle's' purple and I love this concept sm.

I like to think that for lore reasons , since nik took the role of chronos because of oracle and wes is said to be a fan of oracle (basically they both greatly admire oracle) so they choosed their villain/hero costume colors based on oracle's. they match!!!!!

I wanted the reference sheet layout look like it was taken out of an artbook or a magazine . i kinda like the way it turned out . Adore the font effect used for 'Oracle', Its giving comic book style and i love it.

Originally I wanted the colour scheme to be more teal/peacock green. but in the end i scrapped the idea because the colors looked too busy. here's a wip ss:

I have no idea why I made the brown leather bag thingy around the thigh. It is too small to contain anything now that I look at it. At the time of making i thought "hmmm maybe it contains a button to call for backup" but I don't like that idea anymore. I am thinking of turning it into a 'hidden' insulin monitor.

How many eye motifs can you spot on the hero outfit? let's see! (take a look at the reference and guess before reading the following portion)

1) The eye witch hat hehe i love that one.

2) The brooch holding the cape around the neck of oracle .

3) The center of the peacock feather looks like an eye (more on this later).

4) The knee supports were to be shaped like an eye (golden sclera with purple iris) but i didn't commit to the bit rip. Its more visible on the left knee i think.

5) The cape is supposed to be eye shaped at some point but i think it wraps around so the shape isn't obvious. I'll let this one slide/silly

6) The glowing eyes on the mask.... no i am not cheating now LOLL /silly

Referencing to two already mentioned points (both including the word peacock) , I initially planned to make the color scheme more peacock color palette and use a lot of peacock motifs because 1) peacock is my favourite bird. 2) I wanted it to be kind of symbolic to how i associate Oracle with peacock and nik betraying Oracle's trust (hence acting like a snake) and how snake and peacock are natural enemies.... does anyone see the vision.... 3) one day i randomly remembered that OH! the center of the peacock feather is an eye!! eye symbols = oracle!! brain blast!!... But i didn't end up following with it because 1) the color palette looked too busy. 3) the repeated peacock feather looked busy AND very out of aesthetic with CY's world. imo it would have worked in a more fantasy setting. Still pondering on point 2) though... maybe I will make it more thematic rather than literal.

At one point I wanted to give this a futuristic color palette but that involved a lot of blues . maybe I'll try to design chronos' villain outfit in futuristic aesthetic for fun.

At one point I went into a rabbit hole of more fantasy esque / magical hero outfit references (I do have concept arts drawn from those references LOL , If someone asks about it I'll gladly share haha) but then i concluded CY is a bit more modern and non magical for that /pos. Though I think you can still see some influence seeping in in this design haha. It is magical in my heart/silly

If you asked Oracle what it is like being under the hero costume, they'll answer "Hot asf" and no they don't mean it in a sexy way XD. The costume gets WARM and not in a good way.

Do i think Oracle reused Mama oracle's old hero outfit? yes. But i think to better fit the decade's aesthetic the outfit is redesigned every so often. So it isn't the PROPER mama oracle outfit but there are influences. The witchy eye hat is definitely one of the classics. In my head that hat is now Oracle's brand and can't be replaced.

If you read this far then I love you <33 I hope my oracle always looks over you like a guardian angel. Thank you for reading this. I would love to read your thoughts and maybe your thoughts on *YOUR* oracle designs!!

[criminallyyoursvn]

Responding to that—if Nik kidnaps MC (Oracle), he’d probably just give them a nice dinner. I can literally imagine Oracle sitting there confused as hell like, “Dude… aren’t you supposed to kill me?” And he’s just across the table with a rose in his mouth, flexing his pecs like, “Is it working?”

Oracle: “Is what working?”🤨😒

Nik: “My seduction.”😩🫶

This is canon I fear. This man has no rizz just one big brown eye 👁️ 😭

[criminallyyoursvn]

OMG SWING THEM ALL TOGETHER. Such a fun crossover! also the poses are to DIE FOR 🤩

Heroes and villains 💕

Binary star hero X Criminally Yours. Because this would be a fun crossover at least to me

While Binary Star and Chronos aren't my characters, the lovely ladies Black Diamond (Jasmine) and Oracle (Odette) are mine.

[criminallyyoursvn]

At the start of the game when Chronos said he planned that bomb threat to draw MC out, what if, MC just... didn't show up?

Like for whatever reason, maybe they just overslept or something. With their hero work and office work, they're definitely somewhat sleep deprived

My homie Oracle needs sleep. Pls go honk shoo mimimi Oracle 😔✊

LMFAO it would be awkward they’d probably have called some other hero in, Chronos gets one look and just escapes lolol and tries again another day. As Nik he’d probably text MC and be like- Chronos tried to bomb a bridge and Oracle never showed, that’s so weird??? (Fully knowing)

[criminallyyoursvn]

I’m a bit confused; does Wes know Oracle’s secret identity, and if not does he have a crush on Oracle or their secret identity? Thank you!

It's not too big of a spoiler tbh. Wes has a crush on Oracle, the previous Oracle that is. Wes does become familiar with MC's secret identity very soon into the story, and maybe he has a crush then too who knows?

[criminallyyoursvn]

About being stretched thin, what if Oracle had one of those moments where everything has built up to a point that a small thing sets them off at work. Not in anger or in front of other people, but maybe Nik overhears them crying in the toilets or a cleaning closet or something lol. How would he react? Would he use it as an opportunity to be their shoulder to cry on?

Yes, Nik always wants to be MC’s “hero”. He wants to be the only person they can rely on if possible. There’s no judgment or even asking what’s wrong. He wants to give MC the opportunity to open up to him and confide with him as a safe space.

[criminallyyoursvn]

The amount of detail in this is insane! Not even to mention the design that I love sm 😭 thank you for this. I had so much fun reading!

[criminallyyoursvn]

Is Oracle a hero just for their town or city, or for the whole government or country? Or could they even be an international hero? Got kinda curious how the whole hero thing works in Criminally yours ngl

They are just a hero for their city. But it’s a big city about the size of Chicago. Heroes do move between cities, but New Lycia is essentially Oracle’s Gotham 💖

It also works close to Soul Eater where they have rosters of heroes all across the world.

[criminallyyoursvn]

does wesley know our real identity or is he just crushing on our herosona?

He is crushing on herosona but soon learns of your true identity 🤭
