swtd headcannons!!
Caz is a complete emotional drunk. Suze once even found him hugging a cabinet, swearing he wouldnā€™t leave it alone ever again.
Roy always used to bake with his aunt when he was little. The baking turned gears to cooking after Royā€™s diabetes diagnosis.
Finlays son is in his late 20ā€™s/early 30ā€™s, and is in the Air Force.
Rennick actually has 3 grandchildren.
Caz used to run track (mostly hurdles) in school before he went to boxing, hence why heā€™s so fast, and can vault/jump over things with ease.
(May not be a headcannon) Raffs is an apprentice under Brodie supervision.
In the beginning of Raffs apprenticeship, he actually didnā€™t trust Brodie a lot, leading to Brodie promising heā€™d look after him.
The crew (besides Trots, McLurg, and Rennick) has all secretly created a Addair hate club. Surprisingly (maybe not), Sunil is the original creator of the club.
Muir really enjoys the beach, and tends to walk around finding shells, and ironically, hermit crabs.
Oā€™Connor is a cat guy, and has 2 tuxedo cats back on the mainland he named Houdini and Shela.
Bruce loves sharks. He doesnā€™t really tell anyone else or else he will yap their ear off.
Finlay avoids the smell of onions like the black plague. Sheā€™ll only tolerate the smell if they are cooked in any way to minimize the stench.
Alex answers almost any question about his action with ā€œyour momā€ when heā€™s with Sunil
Sunils mother died when he was 3 from a lung infection he has yet to know what caused it in the first place.
Innes tried to dye his hair red with a drink mix he found, accidentally staining his hands and forehead red for at least a week.
During said week- Muir refused to hold were Innes held, as it felt oddly sticky because of the juice packet.
ask for any specific characters for headcannons!!

still wakes the deep au posting lets get it
ZOMBIE APOCALYPSE, BECAUSE OBVIOUSLY
basically they drill like normal and head back to the mainland only to find everything is shit and theres ghoulies. oh no
Tumblr media
and now doodles/relationships jeje
Tumblr media
brodie/raffs stick together 24/7. brodie does not allow raffs to go on scouting/scavenging missions without him, raffs doesnt wanna go on those missions At All. But alas
Also brodie is not the greatest at protecting him
Innes and Muir are. Having suchh a time. theyre both also always together because nobody wants to seperate them (they both have one half of a brain cell and dont function without eachother) and theyre just ā€œDUDE DID YOU SEE THATā€ ā€œSEE WHATā€ 24/7
Tumblr media
trots is in charge of organizing the missions bc nobody trusts rennick and addair to not send the people they dont like (caz) to die. Trots accidentally keeps sending gibbo on every other mission
Tumblr media
finlay is the first person to kill a zombie. She picks up a big hunk of Pipe and starts bashing bitches. She then replaces it with a bat she wraps in barbed wire. Sheā€™s great. Also gives herself a lil buzz and will not beat the butch allegations about it
Addair is having the worst time because Nobody likes him and he fears they will just leave him to die about that. They wont but he has very low standards for them so. Also everytime he gets upset he ā€œleavesā€ for 5 minutes and then runs back in and goes ā€œIM JUST AN OLD MAAANN DONT LEAVE ME TO DIE PLEASEā€ nobody is amused
Tumblr media
Rennick is constantly upset about no longer being In Charge and Roper likes bothering him about it. Rennick keeps going ā€œwell I THINKā€”ā€œ and roper goes ā€œwho? Asked youā€
Tumblr media
Alex, Sunil and Davros are on the night watch since its safer than going on missions. sunil is terrified and alex and davros are nonchalant as hell. Also nobody is Actually watching (which spells disaster)
Tumblr media
Caz and Roy both have lots of braincells but get nothing done together. They cancel eachother out. Sorry.
Caz makes sure they raid a bunch of hospitals for insulin and threatens anyone who suggests leaving roy behind <3 and roy rations/makes the food obviously
Scooby and Caz are also A Duo to me. Scooby and Caz were both into zombie rpgs/shooters when they were younger and they are not taking this apocalypse as seriously as they should about it
IIII AM CRINGE AND IM FREEE

STILL WAKES THE DEEPERS COME GET YOUR DINNER!!!
youtube
[BODY HORROR AND FLASHING WARNING]
Thoughts under the cut (it gets lengthy)!
So.. weĀ“re finally here huh? Took me a little over a week, but its done at last!
IĀ“ll be honest, the idea first came to me when I listened to the song. I was brainrotting so bad on Still Wakes the Deep, I think I couldĀ“ve twisted anything into being about it haha. But this song actually fits it super well. ĀØYou lose touch with all the things that made you feel sane.ĀØ fits especially well with Caz, as everything that sort of grounds him on the rig during the shape infestation, the things that make him feel sane (mostly his friends) are all things he loses. In many cases, right in front of him. He also loses his family, as he realizes hes never going to get back to them, and, at the end, he loses himself too.
I tried to draw CazĀ“s hair progressively worse as his mental and physical state do. At his very best, particularly in the flashbacks at the end, his hair is shaped very specifically. But the more he goes through, the worse it gets, until at the very end where its just a tangled mess. Also his emotions, obviously towards the end he is still super emotional and stuff but I had hoped to sort of make it more...subdued? Maybe thatĀ“s not the right word, but heĀ“s been through so much that his reactions arenĀ“t as big to things, he doesnĀ“t quite have the enough energy. He still Goes Through It with Finlay, but after that heĀ“s giving you a constant 5000 yard stare. The, ĀØI just watched every single one of my closest friends die in front of meĀØ look.ĀØ
Tumblr media
Even when he gets to the derrick, he can only stare at the shape abyss.
HeĀ“s also in terrible physical condition and I tried to illustrate that with the scene of him standing up after Finlay dies. He is literally on his last legs, he is so, so tired.
also!! three flashy sequences in very quick succession at the end! do you know why? because Caz starts to See. The first, after Brodie dies, is a bunch of unique images about Caz. The people, things, and parts of himself that he is losing or has lost. Accompanied by other things, parts of himself, his life, etc.
ThereĀ“s also these two images of Muir and Innes that I love very much.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
The second one happens as he holds the lighter above the oil abyss! This ones just people he lost. And the third is everything that happened in the pmv flashing before his eyes. Because it is Quite a journey he has been on.
But you know why these flash? because Caz realizes that every step he is taking is one step closer to his death. Because he realizes that he is never going to get off the rig. because he realizes that he is going to die here. So hes thinking about Everything. His life, his family, friends, the horrors he went through, the things he lost and the things he will never, ever get back.
He also hallucinates Suze a lot in the pmv, but unlike in the game its not flashback sequences and she is not normal Suze. Until the end, when heĀ“s reflecting on his life, its Suze With Tendrils!! Shape infected wife!!
Tumblr media
and then at the end, she becomes more normal. Because he is flashing through the events of his life. also because he misses her, but he knows that by doing what he is doing, Shape Suze will never, ever exist. She will be safe.
I had a fun time drawing all the scenes in the pmv, but a select few are my favorite.
For example: The Beira D Bookends!
At the beginning and the end of the pmv, you get a full shot of the Beira D!
Tumblr media Tumblr media
I like these scenes because I love having secret things like this. The bookends,,, ough do u guys get it theyĀ“re bookends... The Beira D is where it all takes place, in the game, and in the pmv. It is the first and last thing you see as Caz, and the first and last thing he sees in the 24 hours this takes place in. It is a very significant location, which is why it bookends the pmv.
Addair and Caz at the Stack:
Tumblr media
Getting to animate this whole sequence was a blast. ItĀ“s my absolute favorite part of the game! Followed closely by the ending, but still my most favorite. I just think its a really cool part of the game, and it plays a lot into my Addair headcanons so!!! pretty sick!!
CazĀ“s Memories:
Tumblr media
After he drops the lighter, Caz and his family are shown again. You can see him and Suze reconnecting (as well as the fact that I yoinked @inky-ashĀ“s headcanon about them meeting up after he got punched in the face). He also plays with a young Cait. and drawing the hug between them just about made my eyes misty, because he really loves his family,,,, auuuughh,,,
also. the wedding photo.
Tumblr media
I didnt really try with their outfits honestly, but I still really love how this came out. the wedding photo means so much to me...
The Lighter:
a little extra bit about the lighter. I drew when it was handed to Finlay, and when she handed it back to Caz. ThereĀ“s no real scene parellells between these scenes, but I do really love them, and the whole fact that the Lighter was originally given to Finlay before she gave it back to Caz.
The Scene That Is Most Definitely Not A Reference:
Just kidding. it is.
Tumblr media
The pose and composition is indeed a self-indulgent reference to the first artwork I made of Still Wakes The Deep!
Sinking:
The first time you see Caz in the pmv? HeĀ“s unconscious in the ocean, and sinking.
Tumblr media
and the last time you see him? Unconcious, in an ocean, and sinking.
Tumblr media
boy I sure do love parallels and things.
The Helmet:
at the very end, his helmet appears in the waves, before sinking below the surface. This is another self-indulgent little detail that serves as a nod to my headcanon!
I also just generally enjoyed drawing Caz and his facial expressions. That man means so much to me, so it was awesome to draw him so much!
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
also, I think its funny you can tell exactly when I figured out what the Cadal logo looks like, or that there even was a logo on the uniforms.
If you watched the pmv, or read this far, thank you so much!! This game means so much to me, and IĀ“m so glad I could make this pmv. I love all the support this fandom has given me so far, so thank you! Thank you so much! CouldnĀ“t have done this without such an awesome fandom <333

More SWTD Second Chance AU Thoughts!
Obviously, the crew can't just all stop working on the rig (despite no one but Caz being ok to work), so characters like Finlay, Addair, and Gibbo have to work, or else the rig would break down.
Roper threatens to throw anyone who tries to start the drill overboard. Brodie threatens to do the same to anyone that mentions Raffs going in the dive bell.
The crew is fairly divided on whether or not to tell Caz about what happened 'yesterday'. One side thinks he went through enough for them all, and it would be kinder to let him live in ignorance. The other side wants to tell him to see if it'll jog his memory so he can tell them what the hell he did to restart the day.
(The answer would be nothing. He'd be as confused as everyone else.)
After the day shift ends, there's a long line of people at the radio room waiting to call their loved ones. Gibbo is the first one there.
The crewmates' memories of 'yesterday' end at their deaths, so Innes has no idea about the chopper crashing or Rennick turning (or Muir carrying him around for hours).
But most people remember how hard Caz tried to save them all. O'Connor and Trots both remember vividly how Caz apologized for not being able to help them.
Once Trots is finished with his panic attack, he goes to the radio room to start calling in every favor he has with the NSOWU to get the Beira decommissioned.
The darts finale is postponed until further notice.

Cheese??
Tumblr media
THERE. YOU SEE WHAT YOU DID, ANON. YOU SEE WHAT YOUVE DONE TO THEIR POOR PRE-BOOMER BRAINS!? This is exactly how people in the seventies would react to this kind of shit. Iā€™m just a millennial-gen z cusp who doesnā€™t understand this stuff.
I couldnā€™t fit Oā€™Connor and Gibbo in but thatā€™s GOOD. They donā€™t need to see this.
It was the music that made the video unbearable to me.

inncorect quotes! (still wakes the deep edition pt. 1 maybe??)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Sunil as a child: I canā€™t wait to grow up and have cool adventures! Sunil now: I canā€™t wait to go to bed.
------------------------
Caz: Remember that time you dared me to lick a swingset? O'Conner: No, I said "Caz, don't lick that swingset" and you said "Don't tell me what to do" and licked the swingset.
------------------------
Finlay: How petty can you get? Rennick: I once edited a Wikipedia article to win an argument I was wrong about.
------------------------
Gibbo: Hey, how did my phone break? Trots: You were drunk yesterday. Gibbo: And? Rennick: You threw it. Gibbo: Why? Raffs: You turned on airplane mode and kept screaming ā€œFLY DAMN YOU!ā€ Gibbo: And why didnā€™t you stop me?! Caz: We were busy laughing our asses off.
------------------------
Caz: My heart is guarded but likeā€¦ very poorly. The kind of guards that would let 3 kids in a trench coat into an R rated movie.
------------------------
Roy: I have an idea. Suze: A good idea? Roy: Let's not get ahead of ourselves.
------------------------
Finlay: Ladies, gentlemen and Rennick, I want to show you the greatest thing your eyes have ever beheld! Roy: A llama? Finlay: No. Roy: A baby llama? Finlay: No! Roy: A baby llama with a little hat on? Finlay: NO!
------------------------
Brodie: You look like a corpse that was just pulled out of the river. Caz: Wrong. I look like a cool rock star who just OD'd in their own pool. Big difference.
------------------------
Innes: Hey, random question, what are your favorite flowers? Muir: Peonies, why? Innes: Muir: Were you going to get me flowers? Innes: Muir: Innes: į¶¦įµ—ā€™Ė¢ įµƒ įµ–įµ’Ė¢Ė¢į¶¦įµ‡į¶¦Ė”į¶¦įµ—Źø

Do you happen to have any headcannons regarding O'Connor and his friends? They live rent free in my head right now
Gotta admit, i do really hope they release maybe like a dlc or a short part two game that just focuses on the crew and their lives, because O'Connor and Gibbo, despite having only a few lines actually seem like they have lots of cool lore! Especially Gibbo (him talking about beasts, flashing lights etc)
Anyways! Heres a few headcanons of Gibbo, O'Connor, Trots, Finlay and Caz! **SPOILERS!!**
O'Connor
- i think lots of people think Mary is O'Connors wife, but I actually think hes talking about his daughter! Someone on the SWTD reddit said the ones who turn into The Shape are sort of traumatized or broken in some way, and the shape seems to lure/sedate its victims by making it think someone they care about is talking to them, so my mind immediately goes to O'Connor had a wife who either died or left and Mary is all he has. Poor guy :(
- I feel like he would be the type to go up to Trots when they first meet and ask if he can "see how blind" Trots is by trying on his glasses lol (he means well though!!)
- Poor man has night terrors like nobodies business. I like to think hes had night terrors the week leading up to what happens in the game about The Shape, but in very vague ways. Has probably told Trots or Gibbo about them as a joke.
Gibbo
- Again, a lot of people on reddit speculate that people who are traumatized or broken, I think his father left him or maybe just isnt a very great guy, since he tells Caz to tell his mom he'll be home soon, and since his ramblings sometimes sound like something an angry/neglectful father would say to a kid. I think Gibbo def gives off mamas boy vibes
- BIG. OLE. SOFTIE!!!! Definitely is the one who hung up all the christmas decor, and helped Dobbie with decorating their shared cabin.
- Definitely has seen some weird shit that Rennick has told him to stuff down, the "flashing lights" in the ocean, creatures that come up that he chalks up to being weird sea creatures so he can sleep peacefully at night
- I feel like in a weird way, he would survive the explosion and make his way to the main land, maybe to see his mom again or to try an find help
Trots
- I personally fucking adore Trots, he feels like the dad friend of the crew, the type that goes up to the crew when Rennick is up their asses and tells them to stand up for what they think is right.
- Always making passive aggressive comments around Rennick, Caz and Roy are always having to break the two up when they get into heavily heated arguements
- In his infected form, i think it shows a lot about the stresses he has as a union person and as a person in general. He feels like hes always having to clean up peoples messes, make sure things are working the way he should be, I feel like he puts on a composed face infront of everybody but is heavily stressed by his duties to keep everyone from getting killed
- I think he likes melancholy music :] soft and sad tunes that you can take a nap to while it rains outside
Finlay
- Can throw back shots like nobodies business, Caz and Muir are constantly doing drinking games with her and she always wins (though the hangover afterwards for her is more of a lose than anything)
- Constantly messing with Addair by getting into political battles and not giving him any satisfaction in seeing her get angry or anything, will sometimes just throw in random hyper-exaggerated takes to see him get mad
- As we seen from the paper, an absolute fucking wizard at darts, like, to the point where if shes drunk as all hell shes still able to hit multiple middles in a row
- Has nightmares too, but about her son. I cant imagine how hard it was for her to make it past the Shape hearing her son singing and calling out to her :((
- I feel like shes also pretty close with Roy, goes out for smoke breaks with him and stuff like that
Caz
- Double jointed. Maybe im just projecting onto him but the way his legs hurt from like THE SMALLEST OF FALLS is some double jointed problems shit. That being said, he totally does that bending-finger-back party trick for the crew, Trots tries to warn him against doing it but the look of disgust and suprise on the crews face will always make him do it again lol
- Was accidentally the first person to find out about Muir and Innes's relationship. He caught them kissing in the mud room, ever since then hes tried to be like,,,, overly accepting to the point where every time Innes and Muir are walking together he gives them a thumbs up like a dork
- Keeps his hair long despite Rennick and Addairs comments because Suize likes it that way (you cannot tell me Caz doesnt like getting his hair pulled lmao he is WHIPPED for that lady)
- I like to think his afterlife is him haunting his house, i know that may sound shitty but i want that man to be able to watch his weans grow up :(((
