i've been pondering about this game for the past few weeks and now i finally got to drawing all of them!

[goosesartblog]

putting this game on the high shelf ‘til you folks unlearn fandom misogyny

[downsteepy]

have not played this game but i care deeply for her. what if she was a little pony

[0ujidere]

The way Anya & Curly's entire characters are dependent on viewer interpretation is crazy to me but also oh so very good. I will start with Anya okay be ready. The way others draw her interaction with any members of the crew varies so heavily and its based off of how others project onto her. Killing Jimmy with the Axe or the Gun, Anya and Curly killing Jimbo, Keeping the baby, Aborting that baby (dattebayo), Forgiving Curly, Blaming Curly, Killing Curly. All of these are interpretations that we can't really confirm or deny because we Don't know how she would act in any of these situations. We don't know who she is outside of the little tidbits of interaction with the crew and how those can be interpreted and how much those vary. I think its really interesting to see how some Anyas take revenge through their own means and others try to find the road to forgiveness. Both are very valid, but we never learn how she really feels about Curly post-crash, whether they even try to have a conversation or if she follows Jimmy's ideal of projecting herself onto the captain, whichever way that means. His pov has made her character so easy to twist to the way the viewer finds more cathartic and I think it is both a disservice to her from Him as a victim, and insanely good writing from the devs to leave an open ended story with a character who can be formed to fit whatever feels best. I'll make another ramble at some point about her precrash relationship with curly because i think it also holds alot BUT that is a whole nother essay. Curly, very obviously, has no way to communicate other than to fight back with what little he has. We see his fatal flaw & mistake, the semi immediate aftermath, but from then on, he is completely at the mercy of Jimmy/The viewer. We do not see him interact with the crew postcrash, except the three times Jimmy gives him his medication. If he didn't need painkillers every day, he might as well just have been a figment of Jimmy's imagination haunting him, the way Swansea+Daisuke avoid talking about Curly. Though he is still very much a person, he is made out (by jimbo) to be (possibly) a complete mockery of who he used to be, strangled and forced into an idol and a scapegoat and a friend and a coward and a god. Whatever he is needed as at any given moment. An obstacle or a damsel or an upstanding captain or a traitor crushing the crew (Jimmy alone) into the dirt. Any of these could be true or false, all at the same time or otherwise. His actions precrash are all we have to understand him, and the way he fights Jimmy against his medication and is beaten for it, and the way he creaks out a laugh once the gun is revealed, after all this time, right under both of their noses. He spends time with Anya and jokes with her. He helps Jimmy with his psyche eval and reveals his fears regarding being captain. The crew get let go and he goes against the company and tells them anyways, only holding out for a week. He doesn't understand Anya's situation when they watch the 'stars'. He makes some horrible word choice and false promises once he does. He continues to make some more horrible word choices and then action followed by a fatal, single thought. And once the regret hits it is too late. And whether or not he could ever be forgiven or more responsible than ever isn't a question given to Anya, but rather, the viewer. Anya and Curly hurt. They are written both as human and an ultimatum. Who Anya is as a person and where she stands on Curly are both vague. Curly's lack of action and level of responsibility are devastating, but whether or not he deserves punishment or empathy are the viewer's decision.

shoutout to media with only one female character that’s just a vessel for a sexual assault and/or pregnancy plot line with very little or no characterization beyond that

[beanzismyname]

…why did I make this

[ashersbraincell]

Aside from the EMBARASSING lack of anya angst in the fandom, could be please have atleast a SLITHER of swansea angst I mean come ONNN

[endofunctress]

mouthwashing more like brainwashing bc why are some of you guys acting as if curly wasn't jimmy's accomplice ???? the 'promising young man' rhetoric that protected jimmy is the same rhetoric some of you guys are now deploying to defend curly's innocence ?? just bc ?? [1] he is not a meanie weenie like his friend and [2] the audience, someone !who's not the victim!, based on premise [1] decided that his torment was retributive and restorative. some of you guys would not hold accountable a motherfucker if he was capable of displaying a wider range of emotions & cognitive life other than 'asshole'. be so fr

[ask-swansea]

you remind me of this dog mr swansea, good d ay

That looks like one 'heckin chonker'. Anya's words. In seriousness, that's a very cute dog.

[leavemetoplaythesims]

i didn't intend for them all to match but here we are

[emiliyathecossack]

Imagine if "Still" in Anastasia the musical was written like "Still/The Neva Flows Reprise".

Like:

🎵 An underhanded girl, an act of desperation, and to my consternation, I let you go. You want what you can get? Is that a fair depiction? Do you believe your fiction? It's hard to know... 🎵

And so on.

I mean come on! Like Gleb's reprimanding her angrily, maybe caught her a second time...

🎵 You don't know you need me! You willfully mislead me! But still, still... 🎵
