MASTER POST

The Experimental Monster Laboratory, or Monster Labs, is a TADC AU where the cast is in the physical world! Sorta..

C&A Research Facilities is one of the cornerstones of the science and medical worlds! They do everything; funding research, manufacturing equipment, and research into the known and unknown in an effort to understand everything. To the public, that is.

They experiment heavily in everything, from hiring literal Gods on earth to manage the more ..sensitive divisions; mixing machine and magic, technology and the supernatural, genetic experimentation, you name it, they’ve probably done it! The world outside may not know anything of the advancements they’re researching but there is little C&A Labs won’t allow in the name of progress in understanding and cataloging everything in their universe. Our story takes place in one of the more private residencies deep in C&A, belonging to Caine; a minor God with mysterious origins, unknown limitations, and boundless enthusiasm for learning everything he can about his little science friends.

Little Nightmares: Rewind sequel 1 - Lingering Trauma

Alternate timeline of Hezu's Little Nightmares ‘Channel Change’ AU

[Animatic - WIP]

[Novelisation]

[Previous]

[Next: A discovery is made, then some decisions, one or two loose ends get tied up, a uniform is established, and caterpillars. Though not necessarily in that order]

~~~

Though you may have escaped the pain and demons of the past physically, they can still stick to you mentally.

~

In my post asking for sequel ideas I never said that it'd be all perfume and roses (I say that because if I said 'Sunshine and rainbows', people might point to the panel of the Signal Tower collapsing in the original comic)

@yansweetz gave me an idea that Raine could be touch-starved and that she'd let Six borrow her raincoat whenever Six gets cold. So from this I made this first sequel about Raine's trauma from her touch-starved past and her offering her raincoat to a cold Six, and Six still getting flashbacks from Raine's death (her survivor's guilt) and getting kidnapped and imprisoned by the Hunter (her PTSD) in the original timeline. But thankfully, Raine thinks of a way to comfort Six to remind her that she's there and that they are safe, and Raine gets some of the touch she's been starved of.

Mono in Hezu's 'Channel Change' AU has selective deja vu, whereas here Six in my AU however, because she's not trapped in the loop, doesn't get deja vu of the events of LN2, but she does remember everything from before she traveled back in time and created the Rewind timeline, hence why she still fully remembers Raine's death and being kidnapped by the Hunter from the original timeline. Which causes her to still have survivor's guilt and PTSD from those events. Of course, Six's PTSD would be much worse if she did have deja vu of the events of LN2 (and LN1), but she doesn't since she's not trapped in the loop. However, RCG's death, being kidnapped by the Hunter and kept locked in his basement for over a month (judging by the tally marks on the wall, though given that Mono never came to free her in 'Channel Change', I'd be hard pressed to assume that her imprisonment there wasn't much longer before the Hunter came for her), would still leave Six traumatised and with PTSD nonetheless.

I had a little trouble deciding how to draw some of the panels, so shoutout to @that-kid-bunny for helping me with Six's arms in the flashbacks of the Hunter's basement, and @penheadie for helping me with the panels of RCG stretching the raincoat around herself and Six. And lastly, I hope that I do not offend anyone in the audience who either has PTSD or knows someone that does. I'm trying to handle PTSD with tact and grace in this comic while also sticking to factors like the characters being children (therefore they wouldn't understand what's happening that well) and that LN seems to be set in the 1940s (where mental illnesses weren't as well understood compared to now), so I hope the way I had Raine get Six out of her flashbacks is okay.

Also, did anyone notice anything in one of the panels? 👀

Obligatory second 4halo angst animatic that I made in 3 hours at like 4 am 🥰

Design gushing under the cut vv

Yes those are top scars on forever, I like projecting on him as a transmasc

Yes those are titties on bbh, I like projecting on him as a genderfluid

Normally I'd draw bbh red, and during the vulture/grief arc I drew him blue! Since he's transitioning kinda between those two states I drew him purple for this, that might change to green if the radiation gets worse :333

The two middle shots of forever looking at bad and bad looking at forever are based off the skewed views of each other they had right before forever was taken over - Bad was deteriorating, and @v@ was obstructing his view of his loved ones and messing with his emotions. Forevers last convo with bbh as himself was telling him he was fine, that he was taking medication for the dark matter. Of course there's also sun and moon symbolism, but I used flower language too, which I'm super weak for!!

On forevers face are Sunflowers, which is kinda obvious based on his sun association, but I also used roses for a representation of love or affection, and finally hyacinths: which I've heard are used to symbolize rebirth, and who's origin is in Greek mythology involving Apollo and his lover Hyacinthus. He was a prince who was beautiful, and attracted the god, but in an unfortunate accident Apollo caused the death of his lover, and the god created a flower dedicated to him to mark the place of his passing and to create a rebirth for him. It's one of my favs :3

Couple things

1. In Mutiny, the way Armando Julian says "Captain", he kind of spits it out, like he's disgusted to call this man his captain right now

2. In the animatic from ElianZis, Eurylochus was originally holding a torch. He helps someone up and hands them a torch then runs off to try and save someone else. The person he ran to save gets killed and drops their torch, which makes Eurylochus realize that, by giving someone else his torch, he essentially marked someone for death.

3. Eurylochus starts off Mutiny not yelling, but pleading with Odysseus. He is still in shock after Scylla, and is trying to find any reason that Odysseus, his captain, king, and brother, would let six men die. He begs for an alternative solution even though he can already guess the truth. He knows Odysseus is a renowned liar, so by saying "use your wits to try and say I'm crazy and mad", he's basically saying "LIE TO ME AND TELL ME IT ISN'T WHAT I THINK." He's desperate for another reason... paralleling Odysseus in the end of The Horse and The Infant. Odysseus begs for an alternative option, even though deep down he knew there wasn't one. Eurylochus is doing the same thing here.

Might Pazu’s death have something to do with that one brief scene from the Main Character animatic (the one where he’s kneeled near a door with a bunch of claw marks)? 🤨🤨🤨

mayhaps 🙂‍↕️

[kidowos]

Death Mark has taken over my life to the point that they've replaced my ocs in my daily "daydreaming animatics to random songs." I really need to make this happen.

Hello,

I just saw your vent comic. I'm really sorry to see that you're feeling so shit. Idk what to say since I'm not in the industry, but as a fan of your work, I want you to know your stories and artwork have made a huge impact to my life.

Years ago, my YouTube feed suggested a very random animatic for 2 fandoms that I wasn't a part of - death note and Good omens. That video was what led me to eventually watch Good Omens, read it, and start reading stories from Neil Gaiman.

Your webcomic, Brimstone and Roses are a part of what I look forward to every Friday. I love Bea so much, who is such a flawed and loveable human. And the way you drew her curves and her stretch marks helped me through my eating disorder.

I wish I had the money to give to your Patreon or I could reach out through the internet to give you a hug. I hope that though your blood family may not be supportive, you have other people near you who tell you that you are incredible and support you the way you need.

Thank you.

Hey, I hope it's okay to respond publicly; I wasn't sure but thank you a lot, I really appreciate your story and hearing this. It's certainly difficult right now, but I'm gonna keep trying, or at least until BnR is completed, I guess

[archivist-the-knight]

hi. xiv analysis. i'm putting some stuff under the cut because that's all things relating to spoilers for the later half of the video jic.

firstly, xiv is a tiefling, but the exact tiefling subrace isn't specified in the video. i'd assume they're a Mephistopheles tiefling, given their appearance in game and the fact that meph tieflings are proficient in arcane magic. they're also known for being in more colder climates. i'll bring this up later.

they're a wild magic sorcerer, which is, in my opinion, super important to know to understand about their character. there's a multitude of ways I can describe it, but I think dnd 5e does a good job as it corresponds with Xiv's story. (link)

[Your innate magic comes from the wild forces of chaos that underlie the order of creation. You might have endured exposure to some form of raw magic, perhaps through a planar portal leading to Limbo, the Elemental Planes, or the mysterious Far Realm. Perhaps you were blessed by a powerful fey creature or marked by a demon. Or your magic could be a fluke of your birth, with no apparent cause or reason. However it came to be, this chaotic magic churns within you, waiting for any outlet.]

now. the spoilery content ^_^. also because this post is going to be like so long every kid with autism. [also very big warning for in-depth discussion of child abuse, particularly from a father, and the affects that has on said child. if you don't wanna read that part you don't have to]

xiv's father, even with the 13 other arcane batteries, is a very powerful man. he's a meph tiefling, giving him proficiency with arcane magic, and is probably a sorcerer like xiv. so, given that... the most logical explanation of xiv gaining the wild aspect of their magic is through enduring exposure to raw magic. Sure, it could potentially be "marked by a demon" given the fact they're a tiefling, but... Xiv's father isn't the best person.

bringing back the meph tieflings living in cold climates thing!! xiv mentioned they lived in a tower of sorts, far enough away where their father could keep them secluded. judging by the usage of negative space and scene layouts in their background animatic, we can retain the information that besides their father, they basically knew very little about the outside world growing up.

^^ tldr abt that. the animatic noticably gets more detailed as xiv both gets older and starts to doubt their father, and has its most detail when they have the wild magic explosion, and when they're escaping only to be put on the mindflayer ship ^_^.

anyway. with all of this to say, xiv's father is not a good man at all. he's done this 13 other times before getting to xiv, and didn't even give them an actual name. just the roman designation of it. he gave xiv a false, hopeful promise about how if they "honed their power, they could leave the tower", but fully intended to keep them there. it is slightly implied that their father got more abusive, more impatient and violent towards Xiv the more they messed up the more their magic lashed out even though it was wild by nature.

this is not good fatherly behavior!! telling them something that would never come true, especially basing it on their skill, they must have the worst damned imposter syndrome known to man!! second guessing themselves, thinking they're never good enough or having to check with the man who made that rule to see if anything they do is good... that isn't healthy!! that isn't a good thing to teach to your child!!

now back to xiv. that one "sex book" throwaway thing is brief but it says. so much about how xiv's father raised them?? i do not care if im looking too much into it but it literally implies that xiv just. doesn't know a lot about things beyond what their father's told them or what were in the books he probably gave them as a kid. combine that with the fact that they immeadily "push out" the mournful thoughts about rai's death to deal with "more important matters"... oh my god... they call me mx head of the xiv emotional support group... the ceo if you will...

and now... another important stepping stone to understanding xiv... rai's death.

first off xiv shapeshifting in the middle of the fight and going "no, not now, goddamnit-" its said in such a tone thats just so... not only is it because it's during such an important moment while they're fighting someone they consider a friend. it's almost as if they've been conditioned to believe that aspect of them isn't good. even though its what helps distract Rai so Tal can attack him. it's like they view it as something that needs to stop instead of something they can't control. which is. probably what their father saw it as! something that xiv needed to stop doing instead of honing to their abilities!

secondly... xiv is a sorcerer. you might be asking "eden!! weren't we just over this?" yeah but. rai... is also a sorcerer. he has the power to harness the storm. the first thing xiv says to rai during the fight is "you see, this is exactly why sorcerers shouldn't learn how to read! you always acted like you're so much better than me; we never should have trusted you!"

and that line in general. it's so. it's the last thing xiv says before rai dies. how did rai act like he was better than xiv? did they tell him this beforehand? is it something they kept locked up, never expressing until this moment? was it on purpose, or was it accidental? was it xiv, seeing rai do things they never learned how to do, and feeling jealous, angry, that he had a chance and they didn't? that rai got the joy of not knowing his parents, while xiv knew their father all too well?

and the sorcerer part... it's not only a dig at rai but themselves. they should've never learned how to read. they shouldn'tve been forced to spend ages in that library, learning spells and incantations instead of just trying to be a little kid. its so subtle yet it speaks so much about how xiv views themselves.

okay. that is basically it for canon stuff. this next part is headcanons/theories that i think are important for the discussion but aren't canon but. i still wanna yap <3

I think the tower/castle xiv grew up in is like, in a snowy mountain close to baldur's gate. it's quite the hike to get there and back but you can kind of see it through certain higher areas of the city. the tower is either positioned behind or to the side of the mountain. the side would be so evil because xiv seeing only a glimpse of the city...

i have this theory that xiv's father was a general or colonel for a war that tal was involved in, with tal's mother being a general as well. thus, i think xiv's only contact with people is either the other generals of this war, or their potential children that were brought over during the occasional meeting or dinner party. very vauge but regardless. smirks.

finally i think xiv was allowed out only on very slim occasions, usually when they begged their father hands and knees or when they did good on training. they were allowed to go with their father into the town of baldur's gate, but if they strayed from him they would be punished. severely. xiv usually went to bed that night hungry, in pain, but happy^_^

ok thats it for real. love peace and joy have a wonderful day <333

[craetor]

So i have a problem this summer getting everything creative i have in mind done.

I'll take the results after 2 days as final

The animatic is to Joshua Alampour's rendition of Dark Is The Night by Mark Bernes btw

[cookie-nom-nom]

I can just see a little animatic for Mirror Dance with 'Amnesia was her name' and it's driving me crazy.

Can't remember when I realized I was in love/Can't remember who it was I was thinking of with him falling for Rowan and the image keeps flicking between her an Elli. Like Rowan is never fully seen, this overlay of another person always distorting.

I think it would absolutely hilarious to switch between a little hospital romance to this gritty scene of Miles' chest completely blown open to the the doctor said I have tomato loss line. Tomato loss, blood loss, same thing. But more seriously the can't remember 'cause my heart jumped and hit my brain line is really excellent for how his chest injury/death clipped his mind in the shrapnel.

Can't remember how she smiled when she said my name/(What's my name?) And it's rapidly switching between cryo-amnesia Miles, Admiral Naismith, Vorkosigan, and lastly mirroring both amnesia-Miles and Mark mouthing (what's my name?) given both of them chasing that answer in different ways.

Can't remember when we walked past the O.R. sign/Can't remember passing out with her hand in mine with Elli's gut wrenching reaction as she watches him die. She couldn't hold his hand as he died because it was ripped away mid battle, the absolute terror of not knowing where his corpse went. She can't remember which 'O.R.' he was taken to; he can't remember that she was there for him. I remember waking up with my mind repaired/I remember when I realized she wasn't there with the cascade in the bathroom. Coming out knowing who he is, and the outline of Elli on Rowan flickering and dying until it's gone and he finally sees her directly.

[puffpastrycrimewatch]

Here's some pieces of an animatic with the dialogue that would have been in it, I don't plan on finishing ever lol

Amelia Vilheart: Oh!

Amelia Vilheart: *whistle*

Amelia Vilheart: Very unfortunate

This is basically Amelia's reaction to whenever someone is marked with death, she can't feel the feeling sadness so she's very indifferent

Only Amelia and Katabasis can see the eye

Even if someone's death is inevitable some do cheat death, then Amelia has to "take care" of them herself
