something i did when i saw a post of joku talking about this topic: it's an interesting concept but practically impossible because nothing stops artists from continuing to create (this is convenient for ink), based on this i tried to adjust the words of the creator of dreamtale herself to her characters under an objective truth— there is no limit to the multiverse

here's the post and the translation

No one:

Tumblr user pillowspace: hey y'all mind if I drew another ISAT au that's going to occupy your brain forever? No? Okay! *Blasts with co-op ISAT*

(It's so cool I need more on my hands and knees)

The House has the prologue's wine! And since SAAPfrin and ISATfrin are both a split of the "original Siffrin" for co-op... You could say that some aspects go to one Siffrin that the other might lose

(This was drawn with the help of one of the poses from this post by @albanenechi)

my sister told me that if you put something in the internet, that thing no longer belongs to you, it belongs to the internet

okay I like the long chapter titles too much, they’re gonna stay

[redeliminator]

i believe that to some extent Andre knows he's fucked up and this headcanon is one of the hills I will die on in the farewell tape, Cal says that “you can’t cure somebody who has nothing wrong with them.” 

Andre, on the other hand, admits they might be seen as hypocrites. he's not gonna back out, he still thinks it's the right thing for him to do, but he seems to acknowledge that people will not perceive it the same way. he tries to explain that no matter what it’ll look like, it’s not murder for the sake of murder - not in his eyes at least. there's a (sick and twisted) lesson hidden in this tragedy.

to some extent, Andre is aware of what’s going on with him, what exactly shaped him into who he is now. he sees the cause and effect of being bullied, of feeling rejected and alienated, and not being able to do anything about it because that's just who he is. he can kick and scream and shout but he will never change who he is at his core and this realization is crushing for a 17/18-year-old. this and all the implications of a missing sense of belonging.

he knows he’s messed up. he knows what would fix him and he’s convinced it’s out of his reach. he looks at other students and he thinks: it’ll never be me. and he's angry that they have something he will never have.

his awareness doesn't help though. if anything, it fuels his frustration. what adults know to be a temporary problem (high school) seemed like an insurmountable obstacle, the end of everything.

new chapter titles 👀

also ‘a lot of the time I just wanted to time travel back or my childhood bed’ juxtaposed with ‘I wanted to get better, to challenge myself, and to build on my skills as a writer, an artist, and a performer’ is like. the thesis of speak now. it’s two diff ways to confront the first big challenge in her life: to recoil and wish you could go back to a time before you thought it possible, or to wish you would already come out the other end and become stronger. I have to grow up—artistically, sexually, romantically—but the thought terrifies me.

I spent basically the entire prologue in the stage of grief called denial

Ok listen. I just have *some thoughts*. Thoughts I can't articulate. So I drew this instead :U

Who is the lucky person Rupert? And Charles and Ellie, what are your plans to make sure he and Henry don’t choke each other to death?

"Who is the lucky person Rupert?"

there's 'Doomed By The Narrative' as in it serves their character arcs and the overall plot (Malistaire, Morganthe) and then there's 'Doomed By The Narrative' as in the narrative fucking hates them (Duncan Grimwater)
