~ IN A VOID ~ FORESHADOWING DEPRESSION PROMPTS
requested by: @crochet-cafe
request: How can I foreshadow or hint that my character has severe depression? I want to make the reveal a big deal when it happens and catch readers off guard
Feel free to use and reblog!
having other characters associate the person's mood with their character traits ("they're always grumpy")
masking their depression really well but being absolutely drained and a lot worse as soon as they're alone
appearing as a 'neutral' person, when their neutral mood actually indicates the emptiness they feel inside
their growing passivity makes them fade into the background
the more excited other people get the more downcast the person becomes (they get perceived as a killjoy)
they don't accept invitations anymore
they always say they're busy but can't answer the question what exactly they're doing
they show no emotional reaction in a fight
everyone says about the person that they have such a hard shell
they usually have been very caring and sensitive to everyone around them but suddenly they seem like they couldn't care less

note: If you or someone you know feels that way and really needs help, please seek professional help <3

Okay lemme go crazy for a sec
Season 2, episode 9: Guilt
When Tron’s simulation machine malfunctions while he’s attached to it, Beck has no choice but to manually figure out what’s wrong, getting transported into Tron’s system. Time for a trip down memory lane.
As Beck travels through Tron’s system, things start to freak out, as it slowly starts trying to fit Beck into these simulations so as not to disrupt or alter them. This leads to him being put in some weird positions.
When Beck finally gets to the dream simulation that led the machine to malfunction, he finds a horrifying sight.
If Tron doesn’t stop, he’ll end up not just hurting his subconscious.

If I had a nickel for every time the writers used an unrelated line of dialogue from Thirteen to foreshadow a major character death at the end of a season, I'd have two nickels. Which isn't a lot, but it's weird that it happened twice.

So I’m halfway through AoaB 4.8…….
……………………..
………………………………..
I cannot express my displeasure adequately. There are not enough words in my vocabulary to truly grasp the deep seated displeasure of what has occurred. I would like to maintain my anger and fury of a thousand suns, but I can’t seem to stop crying. I can’t read this. I cannot.

Since I had the game open anyway, I figured I'd stare and stare at the statue's plaque until it started making sense, so I did. As I thought, it's similar to that statue I shared a while back: GUI says one thing (don't listen to Geppetto's lies!), while the actual texture has an excerpt from Pinocchio. The punctuation and wording aren't exact this time because holy shit is the text small, and my eyesight bad.
What the GUI says:
In honor of the happiest days of our family because of her presence
I still miss you, Camille.
- G.G.
What the texture on the plaque says:
After they had gone another mile, Pinocchio heard the same little low voice saying to him:
"Bear it in mind, simpleton! Boys who refuse to study and turn their backs upon books, schools and masters,
to pass their time in play and amusement, sooner or later come to a bad end.
I know it by experience… and I can tell you. A day will come when you will weep as I am weeping now, but then it will be too late!"
On hearing these words whispered very softly, the puppet,
more frightened than ever, sprang down from the back of his donkey and went and took hold of his mouth.
Imagine his surprise when he found that the donkey was crying — and he was crying like a boy!
