Seed berry ornaments
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Making these was so much fun!!! I collected the empty seed coats on a walk in a local park and pretty soon knew I wanted to make some kind of ornament with them.
Because they were empty I took a wooden bead and wrapped it in wire, with little beads threaded onto each wire string. It was a simple process of stringing the beads and wrapping them through the wooden beads opening, but still time consuming. For me it was relaxing and fun to see the berry form with all the beads attached to the wooden bead! I hot glued the beaded berries into the seed coats and also hot glued red satin ribbon onto them (for hanging them up) and added some red velvet ribbon shapes into bows (for further decoration and festive cheer)!
I really adore how they came out.

Picture 1: Picture 1 and Picture 6 are basically identical, they are just slightly different in zoom and are there to show of the pretty seed berry ornaments twice. Because, why not! They both show the finished seed berry ornaments, made with empty seed coats I found on a walk in nature, they kinda look like flower hats in my opinion. A berry made from different red-and-black beads has been glued inside the empty seed coat as a new berry and the ornament is decorated with a red satin ribbon loop and a red velvet bow.
Picture 2: Two empty seed coats, one laying on it's side and showing it's cap/hat like shape and one standing on top of the table. Two wooden beads wrapped with wire and beads are laying next to the seed coats, looking very much like red-and-black sparkly berries.
Picture 3: A close-up of a finished bead "berry" placed into an emtpy seed coat, showing how cute this ornament will look once I glue everything together!
Picture 4: A wooden bead wrapped in wire and covered with little beads is laying on top of a table. It looks very much like a sparkly berry in different shades of red and some black beads. Next to the wire-wrapped berry lay the used tools: two kinds of miniature-sized pliers and one miniature-sized wire cutter, the collected empty sead coat and a little transparent tin with a red-and-black bead mix.
Picture 5: A close-up of one wooden bead that has been completely wrapped in strings of wire with various shades of red (and some black) beads threaded onto the wire. The final look resembles a sparkly berry.
Picture 6: See picture 1. The picture almost look identical. I just wanted to include both! [/image description]

Mixing this inspiration picture with inspiration I took from Kaneko's iconic split bodice dresses to cook something new up....
Tumblr media
These are fabrics I bought 2007 in Tokyo. Yes quite some time ago! As you can see they have the same print but different colourways. I want to use them to create a split bodice and a big split bow as well.
I don't have a fabric for the skirt part yet though... so I need to aquire that somehow.
[Image description]
First 4 pictures show stock pictures of a wa lolita dress by Japanese brand Metamorphose. It has a shortened bodice made from beautiful kimono fabric in a rich golden colour with red and purple flowers on it. The bodice is decorated with beautiful red tassles and white lace. The skirt part has a deep purple plum colour with a ruffle of the kimono print fabric peaking out at the bottom. A plum waisttie decorated with red lace finishes the look off.
The link shows a preview of an off-white onepiece dress printed with knightly images.
The singular picture at the bottom shows two fabric: a black and a purple one. They have the same pattern of horizontal almost brush- like strokes/stripes and sakura inspired flower branches.

Goran Višnjić as Nikola Tesla in Doctor Who 12.4, Nikola Tesla's Night of Terror.
image descriptions below the cut
[1] A still from an episode of Doctor Who, showing Goran as Nikola Tesla in front of Niagara Falls with an audience of men in suits and top hats, only their backs shown to us. Nikola is gesturing towards the waterfall as he speaks. He's a tall, slim man of about fifty in an old-fashioned suit with a tailcoat, pinstriped trousers, a waistcoat and watch-chain. He has a moustache, and brown hair parted in the middle, a few inches long and styled neatly with a bit of a wave.
[2] Goran as Nikola Tesla gesturing towards a device I don't understand well enough to even describe except that it's two corrugated metal cylinders and electricity is arcing between them, blue and dramatic, while he gestures like a magician. His other hand is on a lever, his face obscured by a starburst of blue light.
[3] A close-up of Goran as Nikola Tesla with a lightbulb in the foreground gleaming with warm light. He's looking off-screen and smiling slightly, eyes large and grey-blue, eyebrows raised, creases in his forehead and around his mouth. He's wearing a butterscotch-yellow tie with a wing or tuxedo shirt collar.
[4] A side-on view of Goran as Nikola Tesla bent over a workbench doing something with a tool we only see as a faint gleam of metal. He's bent almost double, intent on his work, a curl of hair falling down above his forehead, his coat gone and his shirt sleeves rucked up to the elbow so that his arms are bare and evidently hairy. The scene's dark, lit only by a candle lamp.
[5] A view of Goran as Nikola Tesla looking at a figure mostly out of view, visible to us only as blonde hair at the side of the screen. Nikola's eyes are a little wide, his mouth slightly open, making him look bewildered, and perhaps wary - I thought of it as his "okay, either you or this situation is bonkers" face. His thumb is just visible at the bottom of the screen, suggesting he's gesturing or fidgeting with his hands.
[6] A view of Goran in a crowded street, no coat, standing almost a head taller than everyone else and gesturing with one hand in a way that signals frustration or defensiveness, his eyes closed, mouth open as he speaks. A few bowler hats are visible around him, and a few of Nikola's companions - Dorothy, a serious-faced woman of thirty or so with tightly curly hair and smart clothing; the Doctor, currently a woman with straight blonde hair looking curiously past Dorothy; and just a glimpse of Yasmin in the background in a flat blue hat.
[7] A side-on view of Jodie Whittaker as the Doctor and Goran as Nikola both paying rapt attention to a glowing green mechanical-looking ball in a dish, with the Doctor pointing her sonic screwdriver at it and Nikola bending down to watch at the opposite side of the desk, hands folded together as if he's fidgeting, intent on her work. The Doctor's in a long light grey coat with a hood, incongruous for the era, and it's clear she'd be a lot shorter than him if he weren't currently courting back pain.
[8] The same scene as before, minutes later - the Doctor only visible as blonde hair in the foreground, Nikola's face transformed like he's realised something wonderful, eyes on the Doctor and leaning forward slightly, or still leaning on the desk. His mouth is open as he talks, his eyes bright, skin creasing faintly at the corners with a real smile.
[9] The same scene as before, seconds later. Goran as Nikola is looking to the side, no longer smiling but serious and thoughtful.
[10] The same scene as before, seconds later. Nikola is looking back at the Doctor and raising his eyebrows in a question at something she said, his forehead creasing, his expression perhaps a little doubtful.
[11] A close-up of Goran as Nikola in a room with warmer and dimmer lighting, his hair coming loose a bit as short curls on his forehead, frowning as he talks to someone off-screen. The angle exaggerates his nose, emphasises the lines around his mouth.
[12] A different view of the scene, zoomed out. Nikola is bent over a worktable beside Yasmin, a young woman with curled hair and a smart navy-blue jacket, and they're looking at each other as though discussing a problem, Nikola folding or rubbing his hands together. The desk of a mess of wires and oddments, lit bulbs in metal cages and what might be the odd green ball from earlier.
[13] Nikola and Yasmin in a very different location, dimly lit, with strange red lights in the background and a green light over their faces. (They're on an alien spaceship.) Yasmin is looking down at the floor like she's stunned, mouth open, and Nikola is holding her arm like he's just pulled her back, but his eyes are on something or someone else we can't see. His eyes are wide, his expression startled and openly afraid.
[14] Nikola and Yasmin still on the spaceship, blurry machinery behind them, but Nikola is almost level with Yasmin now and they're standing close, both looking at a third party off-screen. Yasmin's expression is one of distaste and a little anger, and Nikola's eyebrows are drawn down, expression somewhere between bewildered and worried.
[15] A different scene, different lighting - deep blue in the background, warm light on Nikola's face. It's an odd angle, his head ducked as though looking at something, his expression serious.
[16] A different scene, perhaps daytime with electric lighting, Nikola in conversation with someone off-screen who's clearly shorter than him. His hair's a little disarrayed, eyebrows raised and forehead creased, but there's something of a smile to his eyes and his mouth that gentles it.
[17] The same scene, seconds later, slightly zoomed in. Nikola's eyebrows are lower, forehead still creased and eyes a little scrunched, like he doesn't understand yet what the other person means. There's something tender about it still.
[18] A different room, darker, Nikola grinning while the Doctor is mostly off-screen, just a little of her hair visible, except she's raising a hand for a high-five that he isn't reciprocating. Creases are splayed out from his eyes, deep ones around his mouth, his nose sharp from this angle.
[19] A different view of the high-five moment, focusing on the Doctor as she realises he doesn't know to reciprocate - the high-five wasn't invented yet - and starts to lower her hand. Her mouth is wide open, teeth showing, somewhere between a grin and talking, and her body language is open exuberance. The creases around Nikola's eyes are still very visible from this angle, though most of his face isn't.
[20] A view of Goran as Nikola with his eyes closed as if he's blocking something out, and a look of forbearance and faint frustration on his face.
[21] A side-on view of Goran as Nikola, a shorter man in the background and the TARDIS behind them both, its windows glowing white. Nikola's expression is determined and a little grim, more hair curling messily against his forehead.
[22] A view of Goran as Nikola outside, trees in the background, a blurry blue-white sky and what might be yellowish grass. He's wearing old-fashioned aviator goggles on his forehead, where they're pushing his hair up so it's even messier, and he's looking down at something with a troubled expression.
[23] A view of the Doctor and Goran as Nikola in the TARDIS, the scene awash in electric blue and peach-pink, and no other lighting. The Doctor's leant over the TARDIS controls doing something there and looking back at Nikola, who has picked up some sort of contraption and is looking down at it, expression either troubled or focused. The light on his face is blue, throwing his features into sharp and unflattering relief.
[24] A view of Goran as Nikola in the TARDIS still, the lighting blue, the angle of his shoulders suggesting his hands are on his hips, and his expression now one of open joy. His eyes are large, his mouth open and smiling slightly, soft creases on either side.
[25] A view of Goran as Nikola on the street, looking with his head tilted at someone in the foreground - barely visible, except for the bowler hat. Nikola's expression is tolerant, a restrained smile with narrow eyes, and his hands are probably clasped behind his back.
[26] A view of Goran as Nikola on the street, now talking to the Doctor, only the back of her head visible. Nikola's in the same pose as before, hands behind his back, only leaning slightly towards her now, his expression warm as he talks to her. The creases around his eyes are back, and it's another angle that emphasises his nose.
[27] The same view as before, only now Nikola's ducked his head, almost like he's shy, or needs a moment to collect himself. The creases have gone from his eyes, but the smile's still there at his mouth.

I have a new creation that I’d love to share with you all! I went to group art therapy today at the VA and the prompt was to create a piece of art depicting an armor that protects you from anxiety and stress. So I created this!
It’s a representation of my energetic shield that I create every morning and night with the help of this guided meditation (I can not recommend this video enough, it’s amazing! https://youtu.be/pmrmK0HwAWM?si=L-Jq4H_T4WcqwE3G) where I first release all energy that is not of unconditional love and light and then I visualize a shield made of unconditional light and love that encompasses my body and connects up to the cosmos and higher dimensions as well as deep down to the center of the earth. There are other protection actions that the meditation guides me through but that’s the important part for the sake of the painting.
So I wanted to paint the ground with a layer of grass and roots and a clear blue sky. And the little pink blob represents my energetic self. I imagine that my energetic self would be a bright pink.
So yeah that’s my new painting. 🥰
[Image ID: The image is a photo of a painting against a wood grained desk. The painting shows a clear blue sky, a layer of grass and roots, and a deep brown ground stretching to the bottom of the canvas. On the right side of the canvas is a bright pink blob in a shape of a figure eight with a slightly bigger bottom than top that is hovering over the grass. Encompassing the blob is a column of bright yellow that extends from the top of the blue sky to the bottom of the canvas. In the bottom left corner is my signature in yellow. ./End ID]

Die Vampire laden zum Tanz
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
I dressed as my favourite musical for the musical party at the end of September! My favourite musical is Tanz der Vampire (Dance of the Vampires) and of course I had to incorporate my Witches' vest into the outfit (because obviously) and red accents & accessories for a blood theme. My new red hair bows went well with that!!
Me and two friends (one doesn't want to be included in pictures) visited the musical party event held by the theatre company. They celebrate known cult musicals and introduce the new musical, that will be introduced this season. We got a sneakpeak for "Rock me Amadeus", a musical based on the life's story of one of Austrian's most famous rock stars Falco! After having lots of fun at the musical event we went to a nearby Japanese restaurant and had the most delicious food. Spy my yummy 3 courses: vegetable gyoza for a starter, green ramen noodles and a melon pan with azuki ice cream for dessert.
Outfit rundown:
- hair bows from Claire's
- red short- sleeved t-shirt (second hand for free)
- black lacy blouse over the t-shirt (second hand for free)
- handmade vest/ gilet
- handmade pointy black skirt (I randomly made this skirt a couple years ago in a spur of the moment. It's amazing!)
- black tights and booties
- black shoulder bag with red details and pentagram (forever in my collection) [there's also a black bat plushie hugging the bag but you can't really see that in the pictures]
[image description]Picture 1: Two young, white women posing together. One is thin, the other is fat. (I'm the fat one). Both have brown hair and wear it in two braids, though the thin woman has noticeably shorter braids and bangs. The fat woman has very long hair and thus braids, and is also wearing glasses (her friend has none). The young, fat, white woman (me) is wearing: a red t-shirt, with a black sheer lacey blouse on top. The shirt sleeves stop before the lace, so you have a bit of lace with only her arm underneath, which gives a pretty effect. Over the shirt and lace blouse (both thrifted) she's wearing a handmade vest with a witchy themed print on it. Her outfit continues with a black pointy circle skirt, with additional layers of tulle for decoration. The edges of the pointy skirt are also decorated with lace (because the answer to lace is always yes!). Black thights and booties finish the bottom off. For accessories she's got bright red velvet hairbows, a necklace with an anatomical heart on it, black lace fingerless gloves and a black hand-held fan.
Her thin friend next to her is wearing a brown beret, a cream-coloured blouse with red decorations and an embroidery-like print which features big roses. She's wearing a cameo brooch pinned to the neck of her blouse. Her outfit continues with a highwaist skirt in dark red (blood red maybe?) featuring a gorgeous fairy tale-esque/picture book-esque print showing scenes from the musical "Dance of the Vampires". It's not officially affiliated, but for fans of the musical it's clear where the inspiration came from. The picture book drawings even show the famous bed featuring in the scene of the "Carpe Noctem" song! White tights and black shoes with cute bows on them finish the outfit off.
Picture 2: A close-up candid picture of Amy (me) standing among the crowd watching the musical show on stage. She's turning around to look towards the picture taker and smiling.
Picture 3: A close-up candid picture of Amy (me) taken from behind. She's happily watching the musical show on the stage and quickly fanning herself with a black fan with white mountains drawn on it.
Picture 4: Amy (me) and her friend waiting in line for the musical flea market. One is thin, the other is fat. (I'm the fat one). Both have brown hair and wear it in two braids, though the thin woman has noticeably shorter braids and bangs. The fat woman has very long hair and thus braids, and is also wearing glasses (her friend has none). Their both dressed in gothic lolita fashion, with a vampire theme. (For a detailed description of their clothes, check picture 1 please.)
Picture 5: The delicious Japanese food I've had! On top of the collage of pictures are the surprisingly big vegetable gyoza, followed by a bib beautiful ramen bowl, with noodles, green vegetables, spring onions, sprouts and a juicy egg. The third image shows dessert: a melon pan, which has been cut open, with a big scoop of azuki ice cream inside, with some azuki bean sauce, an orange slice and mint for garnish.[/image description]

New obsession:
Tumblr media
THIS HAT ⬆️
Can only find it called kalatiskos in relation to this one image of it at the Carneia festival (on volute krater from C5th BCE). Wiki descrips suggest a male dancer (no mention of what’s happening to the skirt! Whirling round?) in a straw hat!
A kalathos is a basket (nifty Archaic Greek ceramic version from the BM below) worn as a crown (like a polos but taller), to signify prosperity, like on the statue of Serapis below (a bit like a cornucopia?)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
And ‘-iskos’ is a diminutive. So… a little Kalathos? Hardly looks little though in that base painting! Reminds me of an Erté crown!
Tumblr media
And the skirt reminded me of Sufi dancers (exact image provided by art friend!)

does that mean commissions are open? I've got a dnd character with your name on it haha
I'd say I'm fairly comfortable to take on some new orders now, yeah! and I DO take dnd characters... usually people don't have visual refs for those though, so if you do hit me up, make sure you have a good written descrip and/or some reference images, they can be from pinch rest or made in ms paint, it doesn't matter.

@an-unimpressed-jackalope You! You get it!
Jonathan Sims:
"What if you just narrowly escaped an death that one time you walked home late at night?
What if a person you loved suddenly changed for seemingly no reason?
What if a family member lost themselves in an unhealthy obsession and you could do nothing but watch?
What if you died and nobody even cared?"

hihi! it’s national gf day & i was wondering if you had some headcanons on how the dteam would spend it! :)) -🐼
dteam on national girlfriend day
masterlist & descrip. pg. 13+. girlfriend!reader. fluff.
a/n. this i actually i have ideas for, but it's still pretty shitty writing
Tumblr media
dream – wakes you up early by peppering your face in kisses. ”five more minutes, clay, please..” you lazily push your hands at his face. ”no, c'mon you have to get up, we're going out today.” he intertwines one of his hands in yours while using the other to hold himself up over you.
takes you out for breakfast, something simple. he also packs extra clothes in the car because you're out all day. long beach day, in and out of the water, sunbathing (he helps you with spf tanning lotion and vice versa), and a picnic lunch.
in the evening the two of you cook together and inevitably a small food fight in the kitchen with the ingredients you were cooking with. post-dinner it's a fort and movies on his laptop. he forces himself to stay up longer than you so that he can carry you back to bed when you finally let the sleep get to you.
sapnap – he got a disposable camera just for this day. wakes you up accidentally, while he's fumbling around the bedroom. for a few minutes you only roll around, trying to convince your body to go back to sleep. ”sap, what's going on?” you sit up, blinking away the last of your tiredness. ”no, peach go back to sleep.” ”can't.”
instead of a full breakfast, he makes a big ass fruit smoothie that you can take in the car with you because you're out all day. not doing anything in particular, but just driving. occasionally you'll pull over, stop and sapnap will use the camera for a new polaroid or two, and you stop for lunch, more pictures when you pull over at an overlook to eat. he just wants to make the most of the day.
you come home late, tired and sap insists on carrying you back up to the bedroom because it's national girlfriend day and he loves you. he reads aloud a couple chapters of the book you've been reading, asking questions of course because he wasn't sure what was going on, and by the end of the last chapter, you're falling asleep.
george – lets you sleep in while he attempts to cook breakfast. keyword attempts. ”george what is that smell,” you rub your eyes, trying to get the sleep out of them and when you open them and can see clearly, the image in front of you is nothing short of laughable. george is struggling to move dishes around the kitchen, something is clearly burning on the stove, the sink is running and the fridge door isn't entirely shut. you pad your way over to him, ”oh georgie..”
you have to cheer him up from his failed attempts at cooking before you make breakfast. ”i wanted to do something nice for you love.” you smile at him, ”why? am i forgetting something? is it my birthday?” you're being sarcastic, somewhat. ”no, it's national girlfriend day you moron.” he continues to eat, and you gasp. ”well that's no way to treat your girlfriend.”
after breakfast, he agrees to try something you'd been wanting to do with him or teach him to do for awhile. he learned to like it, but he would never admit it. a few pictures, but not a lot because neither one of you wanted to ruin the moment. a stream on his twitch except you had entire control of everything; also him ending stream earlier than originally planned because he wanted you all to himself.
fbsdikjfb falling asleep watching your favourite romcoms.

interloper: the story behind the story
losing my mind, i need to write this down before matpat breaks out of containment and covers this topic. because of the density of the arg (and lack of computer), all the hidden dev notes have to be supplemented from other investigators, and I'll have a list of creators that inadvertently helped. i wanted the theory on the story to be wholly my interpretation so other theories similar to mine are likely following the same path as me (or read my mind) fhdjd I've been working on a script for about a year now but just needed to get this out.
edit: will be adding and editing periodically!
UPDATE (2025.01) in the process of writing a script. uploading video in the next month or two. unfinished works/reworks will be linked when video is up!
eida, project skybox, and the connection between fsky + lilico + current interloper theory thread
(spoilers ahead)
brief timeline of a few events
( 1980-1993 ) Digivisions
1991 ; "small CGi development startup" and "European company," FourTwo, slates a 50 minute time slot for "showcase 22."
While not physically present, organizers are sent 3 Tapes to play in order, totaling to a 90 minute presentation.
Only Tape 2 is played ; Lilico.
Footage : only image is a title card of black and white text "demonstration 014 Lilico" and an image of a square with two bright green squares to on either side ; one red "eye" and one blue "eye" ; what looks like a cylindrical body underneath as well as what looks like a structure behind it.
Tape 1 was called "anatomy of a world."
Notable , video segments broken up by black screens with white text & and written in all caps in 3 different languages.
( 2004(?)-??? ) DM Editor
Briefly mentioned in Anomi's Interloper Episode 2 ; at first dismissed as a hoax ; "an old promotional tech demo of a cut source tool." Seems to be related to FourTwo and/or FSKY, and "can easily be speculated that it is related in some form to DMNPCs. A common theory is that it allowed for the creation and interaction of DMNPCs with nodes."¹
( 2005 original upload ) FSKY Forum Ad
Video uploaded by Eida 2014.07.12 ; description "original taken off youtube, full archived ad from 2005"
Footage : Dancing models reminiscent to the dmnpc models. Checkerboard flooring. Model is shown twitching in the background briefly by the end.
Footage text : "favorite games and mods!" , "immersive worlds" , "the future of games entertainment is here!" , "purchase servers today"
FSKY forums website handle is cut off by the end but by indicating the tag line , "server linsting og teknologi for deg" , ie "server listing and technology for you" , we can see the language of origin is Norwegian. Inferring that the domain is .no , we can assume the website originates in Norway.
( ??? ) Makeface demo
Video uploaded by Eida 2014.07.13 ; description "downloaded from the website before it was taken down. watch interloper ghosts episode 8 on my channel"
Footage : Model being scultped seemingly to match a face of a woman in the bottom right corner. Model begins to adhere a head with no textures before cutting abruptly to a completely different model with textures. Checkboard flooring.
Notable , model is using olive.vtf as a file name.
( 2005-2006 , October ) HL2 Interloper Forum Threads
Original discussion 2005.10.14 , OP asks about weird graffiti in the Ravenholm alleyway and adding that "when you walk up to it theres a weird noise"
Notable , during the exchange, OP also explains that they only looked at it because "it made a sound like a scientist voice saying 'oh little one, what now' [...]"
( 2006 )
This is also where Jman finds the " FOR J.J " interloper console command prompt in the files for the UmberellaMan graffiti.
2006.05.04 helmetcreek is uploaded.
2006.05.10 misty is uploaded. ( later recovered by Anomidae in Interloper 6 )
2006.04.23 spookycoast is uploaded.
( 2007 ) Eida Machina Channel
Uploads in order to his original channel as follows:
2007.07.01 " Jan's video " ; description "Prefer PC games, I only wanted to try out my new video editing."
Footage ; a mock video on Top 5 PS3 games. Features screenshots from various demo locations, including the UmberellaMan hallway.
Notable , the song that plays over the video is a French cover of Paint it Black, Marie Douceur - Marie Colère by Marie Laforêt that was released in 1967.
2007.07.07 " garyman eats taco and DIES " ; another Jan Movie.
2007.10.30 " Zombie Slayer "
Footage : "Woman" in the video is named Mona, who uses an HL2 woman citizen model.
Notable , Eida attempts to use said zombie slayer vehicle on Mona but the camera inexplicably "falls" ; video ends to reveal itself as a demo.
2008.06.09 " Garrysman Episode 4 behind the scenes " ; Mona appears static.
2010.02.13 " Dr Breen in the Machine " ; nothing notable.
2011.11.21 " Interloper Episode 3 The Ghosts of City 17 " ; Eida's channel officially changes it's name and opening to an Eida-Mona production. Uploaded as Eida is already being "haunted" by other ingame entities.
Footage : Video begins with a TYPE 5 in which a possible UmbrellaMan is seen. TYPE 4 shown as well.
Eida attempts to use an ingame built ouija board ; Asking for a name reveals the letters W V H. Final test shows erratic movement from a model beside a static camera. static camera moves into a void until reaching what is theorized to be hazflick.map from Half Life 2 beta.
2011.11.25 Upload of final test.
2012.01.04 " Weird Crash TF2 " + 2014.11.22 " It's in My Computer " Uploaded by Editor and given the message "this is it. I'm done for good. leaving you with the last coordinate [ coordinate numbers here ]. please check in a year or two and make sure it's gone. this is it. goodbye."
Footage : Scout "ghost" changes models through glass while Eida watches on, other players cannot see it. UmberellaMan is seen watching. Scout ghost kills player and flies at the screen, crashing TF2.
Unreleased footage reveals that Eida attempted to check the footage inside of the DM Editor.
Coordinates led to an area outside of the cpsteel map ; an enclosed box structure with the letters " HLEM " with a small formation in the center. Here inside, VRAD.exe. By running a demo in the box and playing it back, it seems like the VRAD.exe ERROR had been "released."
2013.06.02 " Interloper 8 Entity Captured " ; description "We have found a real entity inside of half-life 2 deathmatch. This video is a real documentary on capturing a real spirit inside of a computer game, watch now! And subscribe my channel while we experiment with the ghost!"
Footage : A lot of vague concepts here since Eida uses supranatural language. Captures an invisible entity in a box, essentially cut off from the FSKY/int_menu server. Gives it an HL2 Woman Citizen model to "possess." Eida suggests these are "unborn human spirits." Uses DM Editor to interface with the "spirit"/DMNPC.
2023.03.21 Anomi Live Investigation ; Portal RTX is shown connecting to FSKY after a TYPE 2.5(?) is shown ; text reads " connecting go socket.fsky.org "
2023.04.01+05 Anomi discovers that RTX Portal model is connected to the server and int_menu ; model is able to switch valve models with the right click of the mouse. Demos recorded in int_menu are being saved to the server / 2023.12.08 possibly the VRAD ERROR computer marked as " Jan " as the user.
( 2014 ) Eida-Mona
2014.07.12 + 2014.07.13 Eida uploads the FSKY forum ad & Makface demo.
2014.11.21 " MONA DELETED IE I'M DONE. GOODBYE. " ; description "You win. I quit. Now leave me alone. This is my last video. Deleting everything. goodbye and fuck you."
Footage : Mona is deleted with DM Editor. Mona uses the default dancing model from the FSKY ad. An ERROR seemingly destroys Mona (possibly VRAD.exe). Checkerboard flooring.

theory 1
Eida / Johan is the son of someone from FourTwo (+ FourTwo & FSKY are Norwegian)
As stated above, there are indicators of Eida / Johan, FourTwo, and FSKY being of Norwegian origin.
FourTwo was stated to be a “European company” that specialized in, for lack of a better phrase - “weird tech” - focused on “worlds” and notably, a named entity, “Lilico.” It’s also extremely important that it’s Project Skybox’s goal to discover said videos as well as stay involved in the Interloper Investigation.
FSKY forums, judging by their tagline and likely domain of .no, are Norwegian.
Eida’s name on his computer is Johan, the Norwegian equivalent to John. Interestingly, “Johan” ironically translates to “God is gracious.” Eida also has a distinctive accent, I’M SORRY LOL.
With the knowledge of Eida having access to the DM Editor & Interloper demo command along with the FSKY forums BEFORE he became involved with them but after they’ve integrated it into their own servers, it is a question of how exactly he acquired it… For this, I had to do some research.
A few fact’s to note… Statistics Norway shows that a Mother and Father’s age rearing their first child in the 1980s / 1990s would be around 24 to 27 respectively. This would would put the parents at being born around the 1960s.
Eida / Johan begins uploading his videos in 2007, and if born in the 90s, would roughly place him in his tween to teen years, making him likely too young to be running servers with the FSKY crew but old enough to be exposed to Half Life 2 and upload videos with juvenile themes.
There is also… the song. Unless Anomidae just really loves John Wick, I do believe the French cover of Paint It Black is a significant clue. Marie Douceur - Marie Colère by Marie Laforêt was released in 1967, the decade his Mother and Father would have been born and growing up in.
2007 to 2014 is 7 years as well, which would place Eida / Johan around the tender of age of “almost / barely adult now” which might also fuel his juvenile and reckless decision making.
In Interloper B, anonymous discord messenger, jstal1994 makes contact with Anomi. If this is actually Eida / Johan, then this solidifies my theory on his birth year (1994 being the 90s clearly). Interestingly, this name could elude to his last name. In Norwegian, there are a few names that begin with "stal", such as Stalsberg and Stalheim, the latter also being the name of a village in Norway.
theory 2
Eida / Johan and Jan are two different people + Jan is not a dead ex gf but possibly.. a brother?
This is a weird one, especially because of Interloper B in which Anomi encounters Eida seemingly through messages on discord. While it initially seems subject to suspicion, especially when jstal1994 refuses to answer questions directly, it does seem as though this is Eida / Johan. Unless, it's Jan. In Norway, Johan may be shortened to Jan as a nickname, but it's a bit more common in Johannes, while additionally, the name Jan can be a woman's name as well.
In the beginning of the investigation, the first dev note given is specifically noted as "FOR J.J" ; while it may be a stretch, the two J's don't seem to imply a single person as a first name, last name initial as the period is only after the first "J."
Additionally, we see the name of Jan as the user of the computer this VRAD ERROR seems to be coming from(?) or saving to(?) in Anomi's Interloper 7: Following the Light in Source.
From 2007.07.01 to 2007.07.07, Eida's videos are labeled as Jan's videos & movies. Going along with the assumption that Eida / Johan is born in 1994, that would put him at 13 years old when these videos are being made.
to be continued….
