I realized after the fact that I messed up Sym's ears >> might go back and fix it later. Idk why, I like the idea of Dys's hair-decoration coming from Sym.

Wouldnt it be so cool if Sym’s left and right hands were switched?? Like… what’s supposed to be his left hand is on his right?? And vice versa? Wouldnt that be cool? Is this vertumna brainrot?

this cannon OTP almost ruined the game for me and i wanted to vent

Teenage exocolonist spoilers below!

Was anyone else srsly grossed out when dys and sym are revealed to be dating? Dys is a lonely traumatized kid who meets sym before he even hits puberty and immediately develops a codependent obsession. You get the sense that he'd rather die than so much as disagree w sym. His relationship w him further isolates him from the colony-he doesn't need to connect w other humans because he's got an alien he worships, and this connection is used to convince dys to commit some domestic terrorism to win a place as the Gardeners equal, to leave humans behind. Then, no matter what you do, sym and dys will always date. Like, if befriending a child and isolating them only to date them later isn't grooming I don't know what is.

Sols relationship w sym feels far balanced in comparison. They don't meet sym till they're dating age, they don't solely rely on sym, can see all the timelines like he can, betrays sym in some timelines (proof of a non codependent relationship imo). At best dys feels like a little pet that sym and sol have picked up along the way and I hate that you can't stop it, which feels so weird for a game that goes out of its way to be so progressive

So yeah that grosses me out. Idc that sym is technically older-like edward being 17 forever means he's 17,its fiction who cares - but the fact dys knows sym and is obsessed w him when hes 11-12 (and can never seem to say no to sym) and sym seems perpetually like a young adult is more like resnesmee/jacob than edward/bella. Big ick.

Finished chapter 2 of Know Thy Enemy, my SymVace fic!

It's not the quality I would have liked, but I kinda just wanted to put it out there so I can move on and I didn't want to rewrite the chapter lolol. I'm going to work more on the quality of the fic now!

Hope you enjoy regardless!

BD FAN-ART BELOW - SPOILER ALERT - TEENAGE EXOCOLONIST My very first contribution to Tumblr! After months of drooling in admiration in front of all the fantastic fan-arts on this site.. I want to start drawing again. And what could be better for this occasion than one of my favorite dialogue by one of my favorite characters in one of my favorite games? Sym my love, please, never change. (and thank you, @vergess, I wouldn't have known this scene even exist without your post !)

[maetheellen]

Please draw more Sym I’m normal about him. Maybe do the scene where he grows a little field of white flowers? Or just any Sym.

have a lil sketchie
