I for one would like to hear your telltale thoughts 👀👀

ok!!! i am going to try my hardest to explain what i think. but be warned that a lot of this is going to be speculative. but then again. it's aa4 🥴

putting this under the cut bc it's long. i think. idk i'm typing this on mobile

so! to start us off, aside from the obvious (murder lol /j), there's one really big thing the protagonist and kristoph have in common, which is that no one really knows what their motives are. The story’s protagonist says they loved the old man. The line “I think it was his eye! Yes, it was this!” (lol) uses hedging as well, so they’re not even sure of it themselves. Kristoph’s black psychelocks appear when you ask him why he killed zak gramarye, implying he’s buried the reason so deep in his subconscious he doesn’t even know it’s there in the first place. So that’s another thing they have in common: they’re not sure what their motives are for murder.

They do have something more (and this is where we get into speculative territory). There’s this underlying paranoia in both of the characters, that I like to think is part of their ~mysterious~ motive. More specifically, it’s a fear of being watched. Again, tell-tale’s protagonist with the eye, referenced after the line where they'd speculated it might had been the eye: "One of his eyes resembled that of a vulture — a pale blue eye, with a film over it. Whenever it fell upon me, my blood ran cold; and so by degrees — very gradually — I made up my mind to take the life of the old man, and thus rid myself of the eye forever." Then Kristoph’s suspicions that someone had watched him right back all those years after the Gramarye trial. Maybe kristoph killed zak gramarye because he was the most obvious connection to the case that would drag kristoph’s name through the mud. I mean, who knows what trucy’s told zak. She could easily connect kristoph and the diary page she’d given to her dad’s lawyer.

(unrelated but I also think phoenix’s trial could possibly be a step into getting rid of trucy as well. befriend her dad who is conveniently the lawyer you’d gotten disbarred via fake evidence, kill a man (most likely unplanned), pin it on him (most likely planned right after the unplanned thing), get a greenhorn attorney to do the dirty work for you and blame the guilty verdict on incompetence (happened by convenience), then you know. a girl is left vulnerable without a guardian. there’s some mvk-edgeworth shit that could go on here if this worked out. probably)

if we were to assume that it really was the eye that had caused the protagonist to kill the old man in the first place, then another key similarity about them and kristoph is that eyes were their undoing, what caused them to take a life, or in poe's words: rid themselves of the eye forever. In Kristoph's case, this 'eye' was two things. The first is phoenix keeping him close all these years, watching him, knowing all along that kristoph had been behind his disbarment all those years ago (in the drawing, this is represented by the camera, aka the pin on phoenix's beanie, which is why it's pulled over his eye, just to make it more like the old man, with his one big, creepy eye). The second is apollo, his powers that he'd discovered at the advent of kristoph's drawn-out fall, because his bracelet is primarily tied to SEEING those lies (seeing the tension, if we want to be fussy about it. and i will be. because we all know how i am about the bracelet)

sort of unrelated tangent, but my school had this "living museum" held by the theater club every year and let me tell you it was a Hit 😎 (our theater club was popular yeah) anyway. they had a different author every year, and the year they did poe they chose to show telltale heart through the pov of the eye and the heart. and idk. the heart just stuck with me. i'm p sure that the beating heart in the story was the protag's own anxious beating heart that they imagine to be the old man's instead. it's not an exact parallel, but the magatama was used in the investigation into phoenix's disbarment, and the magatama is connected to the heart, blah blah blah, so i used it in the drawing because the heart. because it looked cool B) now that i think about it, it's kind of ironic—it's a tell-tale heart, revealing information, betraying the protagonist's guilt, and ultimately the beating of it caused them to reveal their crimes in the finale. Kristoph's heart held secrets so close he'd buried it even from himself. that's saurrrrr funnay 🥴

the last thing i'd like to point out was that the reveal was done to three officers. and i just thought it was so fitting kristoph was before three people as well when his crimes were implicated. which is why trucy, apollo, and klavier were there in the background. originally, there was a second piece with their reactions to phoenix's dead body but i chose to scrap it because of kristoph's unfortunate angle. i still have the thumbnail, though! you can see it here!

anyway. look at this venn diagram feat the spongebob ep mermaidman and barnacleboy iv. you get it. probably

Omg omg trick or treat!!!

hi!! I literally just today found out about this. Is there any sign-up process (I looked around but you know tumblr, it loves to hide information) and/or any guidelines about what is and isn't allowed in fanworks (beyond obvious taboos)?

There's no sign-up process! Just post your context with the tag "DnDads Halloween Week 2023" on the correct day, and we will reblog it. We've been using the same tag on Ao3 as well, there's no collection you have to submit to. If a good amount of people think there should be a collection, I (mod Travis!) can make one, but for now, just use the tag.

As for guidelines, we're just sticking with pretty standard rules: No incest (we are classifying Glenn/Jodie under this), no underage sexual content, etc. Like you said, obvious taboos. Sexual content is fine as long as all characters are of adult age and are depicted as such on the podcast. We're not here to police anybody on what they can write, really. Go wild as long as it's within those guidelines, and please be sure to tag everything appropriately! Be mindful of content warnings and the ratings you're applying to your work :]

heya! new to modding sdv, so this may be a very simple fix. I have the packs I want installed, extracted, and added to my Mods folder. They're showing the vanilla portraits, but I knew to expect that since I read over the website. I do want the full mod active though, so I downloaded the JSON formatter app to set the values according to the page linked in options/configuration. However, I can't save the configuration files when I try to save them in the JSON formatter, and though I can edit them in other word processors, I don't know if that will break them. Is there a way to turn all options on without the JSON app, or will using another word processor work, or am I missing something else entirely? Thanks!

You can use something as basic as Notepad/Notepad++ to edit your config.json. You can also install the Generic Mod Config Menu to configure the mod via an in-game menu. :)

87, 88, 91?

87. 3 characters you would have a sleepover with?

ummmmm kay, ema, and maya hands down, we would eat so many snacks and get into so much mischief. plus like we are all roughly the same age so i actually feasibly COULD have had sleepovers with them growing up

88. You have to rob a bank. Which 2 characters do you choose as your partners in crime?

okay well if i can choose criminals i'm absolutely choosing calisto/shih-na i mean she NEVER got caught as the yatagarasu. and maybe like... i think desiree delite bc we know that she later helps ronnie with the heist plans so she has to know what she's doing plus she can drive us away on her motorcycle. no i'm not just choosing hot women

91. Who would you trust to cook the menu for your wedding?

well definitely NOT jean armstrong so jot that one down. uh... idk who else cooks? OH gumshoe. i would eat weenie boxes at my wedding why the fuck not

[mithliya]

You’ve got my friend @hesmikeyfuckinway blocked. I’m wondering why so he can do more of whatever it is that got a radfem mad enough at him to actually block? Also free invitation to all radfems to block him, he hates y’all lmao

she blocked me so i blocked her back lol. sorry to destroy ur friend's dreams but i genuinely felt nothing at any point for her, shes likely the one who rageblocked & forgot <3

[id: a reply from user hesmikeyfuckinway reading “LITERALLY lord who made the lion and the lamb you decreed i should be what i am would it spoil some vast eternal plan if i weren't fucking sick man!!!!” /end id]

Merrick just had us watch bdg's pokerap thing and I'm like fully incensed now bc it made me feel like a border collie on crate rest. That man has so much clown blood and he can just CAPER ABOUT for 40 minutes and be maximally annoying and NOT pass out??? He probably doesn't even have to sleep for 3 days afterward. I'm so mad. Do you have ANY IDEA how irritating I could be if God hadn't nerfed me this bad. Writing a song in my head to the tune of if I were a rich man but it goes IF I WERENT SICK, MAN

[goodnightsocialitemp3]

Adding to the California meta and why I personally need them to play it so so badly: there would be something so powerful about mcr performing California IN California. In LA no less, right next to Hollywood. Idk where they lived when they wrote California originally but to sing it there, where half the band lives, and declare that they will never again be in that place in the industry while at the place where the industry’s heart beats - it would be genuinely unspeakably powerful, one of the greatest fuck-yous to the business that nearly killed them a decade later when they’re old and happy.

Yes! Exactly! Seeing We Don't Need Another Song be recontextualized for this new era where they're all doing whatever the fuck they want and at a show in LA of all places would be absolutely incredible. That song speaks to everything they thought was horrific about the industry but that they were helpless to go against, and now they're literally impervious to all of that. That Kerrang reviewer who was complaining about their regard for crowd safety? Gerard called them out onstage for that and I sure doubt they lost any love from anyone. People bitch about their outfits and their performance and yet. MCR sold out a full arena tour before they'd made a single show re-appearance in 2019. All the members have grown and they're happier together than they've been in years and We Don't Need Another Song About California would be the ultimate farewell to all the pain they carried back then

"#dont look at me this show and every show is for him#my chemical romance is a vehicle for mikey to be the rockstar he wanted to be as a kid. if you even care#my chem" this is LITERALLY the everybody loves mikey tour. like i don't even call it the reunion tour or the return tour in my head anymore it's the everybody loves mikey tour

It really does kill me every day that he gets to play this tour happy and sober and married and as a dad and comfortable enough to smile and sing along to every song and listening to the crowd chant for him at every show it KILLS me. Sorry to be an insane mikeygirl but this is the purpose of my chemical romance. They gave their little brother a place to grow safely and utterly surrounded by love

🎶✨when u get this u have to put 5 songs u actually listen to, publish. then, send this ask to 10 of your favorite followers (non-negotiable, positivity is cool) 🎶✨

I was tagged in this post by both @raytorosheadbutts and @raytoromoans (thanks guys!)

Jask pulled the first 5 songs on his Spotify On Repeat which is a great idea so here’s mine:

1) The Foundations of Decay by My Chemical Romance

2) We Save by Ray Toro

3) Achilles Come Down by Gang of Youths

4) It Will Come Back by Hozier

5) Cigarettes by Tash Sultana

I didn’t want all of these to be my chem songs so I skipped #2 (Helena) and #4 (House of Wolves) and bumped up 6 and 7.

Jask and Dean covered most of the raytorocule so I’ll tag the smwc: @sstage4 @blackparadedean @stomachachesdean @fourlessbones @allegedlyopposed @iridescentoracle @ourladyofsorrow @hesmikeyfuckinway @murderscenedean @spookycowboygod and that’s 10 but the rest of you are spiritually invited to share also

kora i know it's so different from your brand of watching but i do think you would love a lot about holistic detective agency (season one especially). there's so many hot women and the two main men are insanely cringefail and there's a group of anarchist vandal punks who feed on chaos. it's weird and it has fun with itself and there's a plot about sticking human minds/souls in other creatures. it's definitely a show you can get away with not taking seriously as you watch it and though it sadly isn't ALL fiona dourif it does have a lot of fiona dourif

i probably would like it!!!! watching tv shows scares me but i do think it sounds fun and a lot of my pals enjoy it….plus good god fiona dourif. hi.

oh bestie i wish i knew shsjfkskfk but given that this man was responsible for like half of fall out boy's discography being written from 2005 onward i can't say im surprised we're still like this in 2022

@hesmikeyfuckinway

the fact that welcome to the black parade was recorded in a haunted mansion called the paramour and they recorded it in the middle of the night in the ballroom and the bass player had to go live with a therapist and the lead singer would have night terrors of being strangled and the guitarist would see a woman in white walking the halls. who is doing it like my chemical romance. fucking no one
