#isat full game spoilers

[anuninterestingperson]

a comic about loop. i've put it under the cut for end-of-game secret spoilers!

closeups and some notes

the big panel on the first page is the one that i started out wanting to do as an illustration but i was like 'wait i want a bit of dialogue too' and so i was gonna do a one page comic but the timing of it didn't work out so it became two pages and since i wanted to do an illustration in the first place i ended up rendering the whole thing like one. don't particularly recommend.

i didn't eyedrop any of the colors, everything was just done with. like. black at varying levels of opacity (lol lol) so i was just eyeballing it, my hope is that i didn't whitewash anybody but if i did feel free to let me know and i'll edit it

the one in the back in the fireplace scene is nille of course. the n on her apron was sewn by bonnie who did their best

the scarf was knit by odile to give loop something to hide their face with and also 'coincidentally' so she could practice working craft into stitches

lulu and bumblebee as nicknames were stolen from future chapters of my fic and there is also secret shameless isiloop woven into this because it's me <3 only a little bit though haha

thank you as always to @insertdisc5 for these amazing characters and story! i've done more art in the past month and a half than i have in years it's wild

HAPPY 1ST ANNIVERSARY TO IN STARS AND TIME!!!

To celebrate, here's a frankly MASSIVE collection of unfinished and/or unposted fanart from over the past year that I've made, starting from all the way back when i first played the game in December last year <3

A whole year in sketches! Maybe you can see how my style changed over time? Tysm if you looked at all that, it means a lot that you enjoyed the art I was too shy to upload on its own!

And thank you everyone for such a spectacular year!!! I've loved meeting you all and getting to reignite my creative spark! What an incredible game and fandom!

I do think it's very interesting to have Loop as a counterpoint to Siffrin because as a character Loop is forced to talk more than what they are probably comfortable with, so we get some interesting insights into Siffrin as well. It also lets us see what it might have been like to view Siffrin from the outside when they first met the party, the rather lackadaisical personality with sharp mean comments that are intended as teasing. While Loop is different than Siffrin, an extreme version of a possibility, there are still similarities that we can acknowledge between them. As such, I think it's a tad dishonest to write the party as not noticing the similarities of the two of them when writing Loop joins the party fanfics. Sure, they don't recognize Loop as Siffrin in game but that was an emergency scenario with zero context as to what was happening. Given time and less stress, I'm sure everyone in the party would realize that something about Loop is adding up Siffrin. Anyway, that's just some of my thoughts on the matter. I find the mirror of self intriguing when the reflection has grown sentience and the ability to change without knowing they are a reflection in the first place.

a question about full cast! when they're.. acting like the rest of the party??? who's who? (as in, 'the FIRST siffrin is odile, the SECOND siffrin is mirabelle,' etc - completely random picks there and not intended as actual guesses) what's up with bonnie-loop?

or is it just Rule Of Funny?

OKAY so I forgot to tag a post, but like, This Post is very relevant to your questions!

GETTING ALL THE WAY UP TO 36 LOOPS IS LIKE. BOTH THE WORST CASE SCENARIO AND AN INCREDIBLY DEMORALIZING EXPERIENCE. It was just too fucking funny not to draw the Universe breaking under the strain of this Black Hole of a person.

Which is to say!! It's said it takes a village to raise a Siffrin but nobody there is playing any particular role at that point. There's no way to tell anyone apart beyond "A Loop" and "The Siffrin," "a New (hopeful) Star" or "an Old (jaded) Star." When you become one of the many, many failures, and the Universe won't let you walk away, you just. That's all that matters anymore. You can't even take yourself seriously, let alone those around you.

BUT!!! Say we keep it to Four Loops, a much more manageable number. I mentioned in the previous post somewhat about how they don't differentiate very well - except for mini-loop, who was fortunate enough to at least look different - until they all decide on what role they're going to take up in their silly little one-person play. They just Don't intrude on each other's lines, on each other's characters, too caught up in their own - unless they're being Siffrin, just to tease him. They're as happy as they can be, having found a way to be.. well, not themselves, per se. But not a group of failed Siffrins. Not all the same doomed narrative. And in a way, they get to experience the people they love again.

When they have the energy to keep up the act, they talk differently, they walk differently, they focus on different things, and it's enough to tell one from the other half the time. And they'll keep going with this until it inevitably gets to them, just how much they're still. Worse versions of someone else.

Oh, but mini-bonnie-loop was made that short both because they worded their wish weird trying to find a loophole (tee hee) and also because the Universe was like. I'm gonna make this really funny. And well if the Universe is making them out like they could replace Siffrin's entire cast, who are they not to follow?

Thinking bout how Josephandre felt during that time in his journey where everyone started praising him as a chosen one or someone with a rich lineage of heroes and what not. I think he'd feel similar to Mira but couldn't show it outwardly at all or even tell anything bout it towards his own companions for fear of them being hurt or leaving. I think the reveal about his true identity came off similar in the way that Mira admitted about the fact that it wasn't the Change God that blessed her.

So the reveal hit Mira harder than it should that in a life and death situation like the one they were in, she just couldn't process it well enough that her favourite series' main character, that her favourite character especially, had the Same Troubles as her. I think Mira has been relying on Josephandre as a "he's a chosen one and he's able to do aalll these great things..." and she thinks a little less of herself cuz she Isn't a chosen one like how Josephandre has been praised so far. Only for the series' last issue to show that "Hey, Josephandre wasn't actually a chosen one. He's just an ordinary guy that wanted to help people." Mira emotions must've been a wreck at that revelation that, "Oh... he's just like me."

Finishing ISAT was an experience.

I played through all of Act 5 on my projector setup in the early morning before starting work and it was pretty crabbing intense.

Like, I was getting this whole nightmare cut while bathed in irl darkness.

And then and then, getting past that sequence and seeing the friends jump in for the save coincided with the sun actually rising outside.

The sunlight causes the contrast to fade in the the last pic I took, which if anything enhanced the atmosphere of the intervention saving lil' Siffy.

Cannot overstate how emotionally impactful this whole sequence was. 10/10 use of the color red.

I so desperately wish to see the dialogue you get if you try to use the dagger on your party members, please share if you're able

I've only seen snippets of it myself because I. STILL haven't played the game myself but based on what I HAVE seen and what I saw several people say about the lines of dialogue, whenever you try to use the dagger on your party members, Siffrin refuses and gets more distressed until he just kills himself instead. If you try to use the dagger on the party again after that, you get this dialogue.

And I know I'm going off topic here but the fucking "teehee" gets me because like. Honestly everything about the dagger event is just deeply upsetting. It's one of the most explicit instances of Siffrin being suicidal and having self-harm tendencies and Loop is very insistent on telling you not to use it even once you already have access to it. But Sif becomes more and more... desensitized the more you use the dagger to loop in time. And just. that desensitization combined with Siffrin's mania really gets me.

maybe it will be easier to figure out loop if i actually play the prologue

[doodlecircuitredrawn]

Hi, everybody!!

I have little to no impulse control in regards to this fandom, apparently, cuz…

I made yet another one!

Warnings: Spoilers for ISAT’s entirety

I just started writing this, so idk if there are more warnings I should add. I’ll try my best to remember to do that later! My brain told me that nothing else was gonna get done unless I at least post the concept,,, so I did-

More under the cut,

So,,, this one’s called souvenir. It’s an au where Siff remembers! I’m being as vague as possible cuz this is still in its concept stages!

The concept for this was written by @/auncyen (Sorry, directly @ing someone just sounds too overwhelming rn! >_<)

When I was trying to figure out a title, I wanted to look up the French word for remembrance…

Lo and behold… “Souvenir.” It was way too perfect!!

So, here’s the link, enjoy everybody!

Yeah it’s most def a case of like old phrase that was used very commonly that everyone used to know the full meaning of as to why it’s used and then it got lost in translation as time moved on later! This isn’t the only instance of this in the story, I think our first instances of stuff like that happening is in act 1:

out of the what
