#utmv#mttrio#bad sanses#killer sans#horror sans#dust sans#also like#killer is the only one of them that actually would#kill for the hell of it#which i find funny and much more interesting then them all being trigger happy#horror is kinda just a guy man#his hands ain’t clean and he def has his episodes but. he’s unlikely to kill someone unless they piss him off tbh#and you know he’s super judgmental of the other two for any violence they’ve committed#dust doesn’t enjoy violence#he does it out of a self perscribed obligation#he ‘has to’#so if he has no reason to kill he’s not gonna do it#in fact his creators depict him as someone who will rescue someone who’s going to be harmed without merit#remorseful murderer( and yk he judges killer too)#but he likes horror#but horror probably hates him#and killer couldn’t care less he hates them all and simultaneously loves them bcs they are fun#quotations around fun#killer also knows their opinions hold like little value#at least they are unpredictable and entertaining#they all suck#and i love them#and let’s talk about all the ways they could learn to accept eachother ok#bcs that’s what i need in life#i hate them all

dust and horror angel and demon themes,,,, they could totally parallel each other...... :3
dust=angel of death described in the delta rune prophecy (self declared) (i DEFINITELY elaborated on this one waayyyy before but anyways dust with a fucked up savior complex SAVE ME SAVE ME.... death is a blessing ass guy. life is torment and he will be the one to liberate monsters from their bodies and with the strength they provide to him be able to take down evil evil creation of pure misery that is the human ✨✨✨ dont worry his evil cackles are to HIDE HIS PAIN of saving everyone....... trust)
horror=demon that dragged everyone in horrortale into hell (as perceived by everyone else) (i think it would be a cool hc if everyone outside of snowdin viewed horror as literally a demon. maybe undyne preaches that. anyone outside of snowdin might be WAYYY worse because they starve for longer and literally take part in cannibalism so they might not have the same sort of mild sanity that snowdin residents do,,,, besides he DID kinda bring them all eternal suffering. kinda. nobody but undyne knows what happened at the core so she could totally just paint the story to blame horror fully)
ANYWAYS i like the possible dynamics this could have :333
dust to horror (please let me kill you PLEASE let me kill you i can end it all so peacefully wouldn't it be nice??? i promise ill make it quick just for you),,, horror to dust (i want you to live and suffer with what youve done i want you to watch all of your choices hit you one day and i'll be there and laugh at you. i'll keep you alive just to keep you suffering ok?)
OR dust to horror (you dont deserve to die you dont deserve to even be hurt by me. not because youre the exception but youre the Exception i absolutely loathe you so youll never get the sweet release of death :3) and horror to dust (just let me die already i dont wanna be here. youre supposed to be a savior right??? an angel?? then why don't you save me already when i need it more than anyone else)
#SHITS THIS OUT BECAUSE I NEED TO GET RID OF IT. my evil doppelganger will adore this post i've already shown them#this is definitely a bit of an exaggeration of their characters in my eyes but i love it :333#i dont think that dust is THIS deluded in my eyes and i dont think horror is this cynical. even tho theyre both still these traits#i came up with this idea while writing my mtt meets eachother fic :3#you can probably totally guess where i made the connection. thank you horrortale undyne for this one single thing#anyways i dont know how to shove killer into this LMAO. i was thinking like.... angel and demon on your shoulder to swap choices#but but triglycercule doesnt killer already have that with his stages??? well YES but both can be true at the same time :333#idk i dont have enough brain juices for this rn. so you get this half assed explanation 😭😭‼️‼️‼️#dust: we should kill this person. totally because they need to be freed and not because they piss me off#horror: no we should keep them alive but torment them so they never get the sweet release of death and suffer#and thanks to killer THEY CAN DO BOTH!!! YAAAAY!!!!! the powers of determination are awesome man (smug tiktok emoji)#dust is sounding awfully similar to a certain killer au of mine i made..... swapinverse rearing its ugly head once again smh#idk if this is more of a symbolic thing or LITERALLY angel dust and demon horror#because i like both ideas........ imagine an actual angel dust and demon horror going around with killer doing the little dialogue i said#what would killer be in this??? he's not a mortal or a human as would be per usual when describing whats between an angel or demon#killer as a god lmao..... noooo noooooo..... maybe just something akin to one. i meaaan technically-#someone who's more into religious theming would probably eat this idea but i cant be bothered uaghhhh#if i say anything about killer i will get shot. but i can tank a couple bullets. killer does have the ability to let both dust and horror#fufill their own ideologies. and also i am a big fat SUCKER for killer keeping horror and dust 'in line' IDC if its a bad sanses concept#i love it and therefore it's now mine to use in an only mtt context. otherworldly beings trio ‼️‼️ aghhhhh#i have like 89 drafts if the drafts reach 100 by the end of the year i think i'd DIE. so this is getting posted idc#you wont see me using literal angel and demon dust and horror. but if you look in my mind you'll see the themes regularly in what i talk ab#anyways back to writing this stupid fic i go. dust is currently battling several inner demons rn. good luck loser :3#killer sans#dust sans#horror sans#murder time trio#sans au#utmv#tricule hc

"I need more animalistic skeleton headcanons" ask and thou shall receive i love hc-dumping
This is just gonna be random skeletons i'm thinking of so like...gonna be all over the place
Killer definitely rubs his face all over color to basically mark him with his scent (and like...also because his tears stain)
Whenever nightmare is annoyed and wants to intimidate someone so the fuck off he basically puffs up like a cat, with his tendrils..tentacles..?
Papyrus purrs a lot, but its almost not noticable because his purring is so low.
Killer purrs loudly. Extra loudly when he is with color. He is a motor.
Nightmare purrs when he is reading books, he cant control it, its why he reads them when he is alone.
Killer growls at delta whenever he gets close to color, then proceeds to nuzzle color and purr loudly
Dust can be heard purring softly when talking to seemingly 'no one'
Dust growls and snarls the most out of the gang
When epic and cross play fight they snarl and growl a lot at eachother, then headbonk after they're done
Okay i cant think of anymore
Aww all of these are so cute! 💞
Dust purring while talking to Phantom Paps? That’s so cute I love that he just really loves his brother yall.
Epic and Cross playfighting and headbonking they’re too cute I love that for them
Nm loving reading so much that he literally can’t control his purring seems so adorable. I’m imagining his tentacles waving like a cats’ tails.
And I like the idea that killer weaponizes affection specifically just to fuck with Delta. He’ll purposely purr loudly and be extra touchy simply because he likes how it makes delta uncomfortable or annoyed. he probably likes putting delta in positions where he has to choose between stewing in uncomfortable silence or speak up and look like an asshole or a drama queen.
but when they’re actually alone is probably when all the purring and affection takes on a more genuine and less calculated, terrorital thing meant to psychologically fuck with someone lmaooo. cuz now it’s something genuine for genuine’s sake and there’s no one but the two of them.
now im just thinking about how killer’s relationship with giving and receiving genuine affection for no other reason than to be close. id imagine that the constant uncontrollable purring likely unsettled stage 2 for awhile there.

I DIED 🫶🏼
I said I would be insansley active on this account but I wasn’t and forgot about it immediately
Im trying I promise you I just didn’t know what to post
WE’RE GONNA TALK ABOUT THE FRIEND GROUPS
WELL THEYRE ALL ONE BIG FRIEND GROUP AND LOVE EACHOTHER EQUALLY BUT THEY HAVE SPECIFIC THINGIES
OKAY SO
THIS IS GONNA BE A WEIRD BIG INFODUMP INSTEAD OF A NORMAL LIST
Starting with Error, Geno, Sci and Night. These fucking nerds 💕 Smart guys that talk about smart guy stuff (Idk what kind of smart things because Im not smart myself but still). They’re all calm and collected people that like to sit together and read books because they’re cute and silly guys. Geno and Night talk about Space stuff while Error and Sci talk about science and tech stuff.
NUMBER 2 IS THE STARS💕
I am so obsessed with Drinkberry you can not stop me. They’re all really silly and positive people and they all kiss like muah muah muah. And btw drinkberry, afterdeath and Scifell are the only canon ships you get. Idk what the other ones are I might just make them all kiss tbh. Well actually you might get Cherrberry too who knows. BUT ANYWAY BACK TO THE STARS. They just sit in on of their dorm’s and watch movies and kiss and cuddle I love them sm
NUMBER 3
I CANT TELL YOU HOW ODDLY OBSESSED I AM WITH REAPER, FELL AND PLUM BEING FRIENDS (cutely changes Lust from Hearts to Plum) THEY MET IN YEAR 7 WHEN NONE OF THEM WERE DOING SWIMMING AND IT BASICALLY WENT LIKE THIS
Teacher: Okay then so what’s your excuse today
All 3 of them at the same time by the power of gay friendship: I have tits
AND THEY JUST LOOKED AT EACHOTHER LIKE ???
And then they talked about being trans for the whole lesson, and then found out they were all bi and decided to be friends until one of them inevitably dies from alcohol poisoning 🫶🏼
I love them sm, they kiss in the best friend way that i long for
I need to get a grip girl they’re just skeletons pls
Obviously Cross, Dust, Horror, and Killer
These little heathens omg
They just create havoc wherever they go, accidental or not
This one is self explanatory tbh
AND THEN THE ART KIDS
Ink, Error, Plum, Reaper, Geno
Error and Plum are in textiles
Ink, Reaper and Geno do like regular art, idk what the word is for it but painting, drawing, charcoals and all that
Ink, Reaper and geno design and draw cool designs for Plum and Error to make as practice
ANYWAY THOSE ARE ALL I CAN THINK OF RN
I should probably start actually writing this soon
Ill post a link to the chapter when I do 💀
Help me I cant tell if my brother has a friend round or if he just randomly has a really good sound system and it sounds like theres someone in his room
Either way I cant leave my room because my social anxiety his horrendous and I will kms if I am seen 🙏🏼

Okay, putting a New Age au thing under the cut (likely a ramble-)
So, this one might come from my own hcs a bit too much. However, smth @ancha-aus (hope u don't mind the tag-) said about a situation in which newly teen Night would reach out to *Cross* if he was sick or feeling unwell? I thought a lil more and I ended up deciding that Cross is the most reliable one of the four to keep Nightmare to his word for his own good.
By that, I mean the others can't say no to Night when they have even an inkling he's uncomfortable, and while Cross definitely also would rather Night be comfy, he's also someone Night picked out for his willingness to follow orders. So, say, Night says Ccino is in charge if he falls ill. But, Ccino also has to manage a lot, so Ccino sets the guys to care for Night directly. Night reaches out to Cross, because he's aware even if he's sniffly and miserable, Cross *will* make him eat his dinner and get healing done. Killer? Would honestly probably just curl up around Night and make things worse and/or get himself sick too (<- has never cared for a sick person). Dust? Would try, but the moment Night looks even a bit more distressed than normal, he'd give up on trying to make him do what he doesn't want to. Horror? 2nd best to care for him, but he's also been known to... not but heads, just have a sort of inherent rivalry with Ccino regarding healing and rest (tradition stuff). So Cross? Cross would be the perfect storm of making sure Night feels secure and safe and comfy, while also using his Older Brother skills to get Night to stop being fussy and just do the things that will make him feel better.
On that same note! Cute brotherly things these nerds do w/ Night:
Dust loves playing traditional table games, like chess or checkers, with Night. It's a calm activity they can do together pretty much anywhere, and I know that Dust would bring it out anytime Night seemed down or stressed.
Horror? Horror loves to take trips to the countryside, buy when Night becomes small, it only makes sense for them to visit the gardens more often instead. Horror has a ridiculous amount of knowledge on flora since he lived out on the outskirts and used to farm/forage for a living. Night loves sitting under a tree with Horror after a long day.
Killer has... a lot he likes to do with Night. He's been here the longest, so he knows Night's hobbies thoroughly (Nightmare him go everywhere with him during paranoia episodes) but Killer enjoys the most reading with Night. Whether that's Night reading to him or vice versa. (I like to think Night might have taught his boys to read, or at least Horror and Killer, because I doubt they knew before-) It's his first instinct if Night I'd upset to grab a book. It was what helped him escape his episodes, and now it helps him calm from night terrors and decompress after stressful meetings.
Cross (headcanon incoming) really enjoys music. I think whenever he has the chance, he and Night will go to the music room, and Cross will play. He learned Cello when he was younger, alongside his training as a soldier, and it was one of the few times he was able to be around his siblings normally. Night knows the piano and viola (Dream learned Violin) so Night and Cross will play together sometimes, to decompress and to help Cross shake off that wall he puts up while he's working.
And! When Night was still running on the Apple Magic, their favorite group activity was always Sparring. The fighting was how Night taught the four to be so trusting of eachother, because he would tell them to incapacitate him as a team. If the worked together, they always has more fun and got used to trust eachother like an extra limb (Like Brothers). Night was always too swift for them to catch, most of the time, but it posed a challenge. When Night lost the apple magic, he never really got back that combat prowess he had before, so they couldn't spar the way they used to... To make up for it, Night and his brothers will sometimes have game nights that involve sparring challenges. Like, passing Night between eachother in fun ways, or hide and seek with him, or tags things that don't require Night to have amazing reflexes like he used to, that still let the group have fun!
Bonus Round for the side characters!
Error! Sometimes when Nightmare is really liking a story, Error will weave him a little "tapestry" of a scene out of his strings. Conversely, Night loves to sit and listen to Error ramble about his latest craft project or his new magical device. They bond over info dumping and insane passion for stuff. (Night is also allowed into Error's 'extra floors' which he weaves into the rooms with high ceilings as a safe-haven for himself.)
Ccino! They have an odd relationship, babysitter, turned confidant, turned... both? But Ccino loves when Night offers to help him make food. Like, at first it was a way to make sure Night didn't starve hinself, but then he kept ordering new interesting ingredients and recipes, and they bonded over the craft. It's a time when they both feel extremely at ease.
Lastly... I'm thinking about slipping Crop and Straw in as an homage to RealAge again, but idk where I'd plop them just yet! Maybe Crop is where Night sources a lot of supplies from? Maybe he's a guy who hid Night and a few of the guys after the first escape from Dream? We'll see lmao.
#New Age au#I still have a few things to do#but this is that post about The Baby that I almost wrote yesterday then decided against lmao---#i will be back... eventually-

anyways my early plural characters would be like. "ahah!! the character but they have the EVIL side" except not always?? its been a wacky history. i blame skulduggery pleasant first and foremost, and the mlp fandom, and undertale, and whatever else i must have watched. anyways i then proceeded to write this entire post and put in too much labour to not post it so i curse thee.
the first was my sona character who i made before anything. (based on stuff from my real life) they had an evil black snake. then i added a white cat that was meant to be good like it were the opposite of the snake before turning out to also be evil but just in a different way. and then there was a grey wolf i added which i think was meant to appear evil but was actually good unlike the other two bitches.
there was my mlp alicorn oc who was a result of an evil bad pony basically shoving dead souls inside of them that were from different times and places, for experimenting reasons. this included a serial killer and i think some others?? but the only ones i remember clearly are my ocs icicle blossom (child) and shining meadow (caretaker) who actually knew eachother when they were alive.
they came from a time where tldr an alicorn ruler was driven to 'madness' and so the pony citizens started a war against her. shining meadow didn't agree with the ruler, but for some reason there weren't enough resources for the resistance?? so shining meadow joined the queen's side but sent food and money back to icecicle blossom. but one day between a misunderstanding and a fucked up pony soldier, icicle blossom ended up being killed, but i don't thinking shining meadow found out until the ends days. shining meadow had ended up becoming a general at some point (because why not) so basically not only did she find out all her efforts were for nothing, to cap off her despair she got fucking GUILLOTINED not long after <- none of this is altered in retrospect, this was legit the story and like yeah i still wasnt in highschool yet. so anyways, neither of THEM were evil, meadow was just morally grey and blossom was just an innocent kid.
then i made original human characters where several of them made pacts with demons. if you summoned a demon and performed an act of great pain then you could make a wish in exchange for your soul. my main character was a child whose parents wanted a wish and didn't love their child enough to not be utterly cruel, so they performed the ritual wishing for eternal life but forcing the "act of great pain" part on their child. except they fucked up the contract with their wording so the demon just ended up killing them for fun (they didn't make themselves immune to murder). so yeah then that character has a demon attached to them. which is EVIL but they're a demon so you can't rlly blame em. i forgive the big bird demon they did nothing wrong other than everything they did wrong.
and ig in current day i DO have a system oc, but im not gonna talk abt em because they don't have any story yet. but they do have an alter that's just a big rat and so that means that they're clearly superior to all these other posers.
anyways, big fan of vyncent sol. big fan of lucy elfen lied. big fan of peter and exandroth. big fan of nightmare moon. big fan of frisk and chara. big fan of probably some other characters i forgot. if this post made you cringe you can press a big red button that vaporises me its on your lef-- **i am turned to dust**
#📚 my posts#📌 thoughts#i was perhaps a BIT ahead of the curve but in my own weird way#i was like 'evil side?? basic af. make that an entire pony. that'd be based'#if any of you know emala j1ss i rlly liked their speedpaints btw so that had influence

Yes
Alright that's all great
How does that all relate to sexual positions
You filthy Driller shipper
DRILLER MY BELOVED IM GONNA DO DRILLER JUST BECAUSE YOU SAID SOMETHING HHAHA
Okokokokokok this is a lot because i think about them A LOT.
Edit: i do NOT expect you to read all of this.
I like to think it first started with killer. Nightmare always told them that dream was the enemy. Dream was vermin- pest to be delt with and eradicated. Killer, loyal as he could be (barely), listened to his words. Absorbed them. Ate the information on dream he was given like a snake eats a rabbit. He wanted to- needed to impress nightmare. Needed to show he was good. He was loyal. He could be trustsed. Because he cant and he wasnt. He sought out dream. Needed to find him, wound him, capture him, give him to nightmare wrapped up in a pretty yellow box. Hed fight dream viciously, do his best, work his hardest- to wound that golden bastard. Hed zigzag across the field, manuver in ways dream couldnt keep up with in the darkness of nightmares aura. Evey battle he felt the desire to find him and kill him. He wanted to destroy dream so so badly. And at one point he ended up letting his mind wonder. He and dream were almost evenly matched, werent they? Oh sure he knew he could never get a fatal hit on him, that was all for nightmare, but they did wound eachother quite a lot (Killer, more than dream). He began to wonder if dream had the same desires. To find him, hunt him, deliver him to the steps of.. did the stars even have a castle? No, they probably lived in some dainty little house in inks doodle-shit or the omega timeline. However, did dream want to kill him as much as he want to dream? Did dream want to destroy him-... could he destroy him? And thats where his mind wondered. AND THATS WHERE KILLERS INTREST STARTED.
Dream is much much different. Dream was repulsed by killer, wanted nothing to do with the freak. Hated fighting him, hated how he found him everytime, tried to kill him, everytime, got a hit on him. Every. Time. He hated the bastard. He never noticed a shift in killers fighting sequence, but he sure as hell noticed when killer would lick his face. It made him recoil, made him disgusted beyond belief. The sick sadist bastard probably did get off on trying to kill him. Dream wanted nothing more than to dust him and finally knock nightmare down a peg. But he couldnt do that. As much of a pain and headache as he was, no one deserved that. Not even nightmare. So he'd keep fighting- keep yelling at killer to keep that filthy tongue in his mouth. Keep cringing at those digusting words killer'd respond with. Him and his filthy mind.
All up until killer, sporratic, LV-spiked, unhinged, and downright crazy, decided to just take his chance. Take it. Take it because hed never get it again and if nightmare found out hed be dusted and replaced and never ssee dream again andn ever have the chance to tttalk to him and tell him he wasnt lying and he needed to tell dream. he needed to. And they teleport. Dream, pissed and confused. Killer, terrified and erratic. Killer took his chance and he told dream and he told him everything. Told him how he loved him how he needed him how he desperately desperately needed to be his and begging to just give him a chance and he knows he looks pathetic and he knows dream will say no and he knows hell tell nightmare and have him killed and never see dream again but goddamnit FUCK he just needed dream to know. And dream has no idea how to take this. He just stares. Studying his face, he was lying. He was kying and this was a trap. In self defense and preservation he kicked killer down, pinned him to the snow and demanded the truth. Where was he? Why did killer bring him here? Why did-
And then killer had a boner and dream hate fucked him the end. Mwah

It's kinda a mix between shipping and the slendermansion thing (I'll creepypasta ♡) I enjoy their dynamics and since i joined the fandom they were always there. Seeing them fight, kiss, talk and all was always fun.
I like seeing the star sanses because Dream, ink, and Swap all have different ideals but in the end, want the best. Ink has knowledge of the creators' existence so he feels like he should play the game with other "characters" & is amazed by all creativity. He is fun and exciting, he sees things completely differently, and he knows the most about aus, he could help his team move around and he knows all the kinks of the multiverse! He can fight in many ways and jumps around alot, his blasters (they are so cute
>~(^▽^)~>) , I imagine he is long distance fighting most of the times but he can do hands on to some extent.
Dream is a heartbroken guy who has been shoved into a fight with the only thing he had left (besides neil) from his home turned into a demon, and he wants to be a good person, in fact he is, it's just so much + the world Relies on him being alive to feel happy. He is so much weaker and is traumatized, but despite all he still wants to help people. He seems to get close to people fighting (small swords) and moves very fast.
Swap Is a guy who wants to join the royal guard to help people and be popular, and Dream & ink offer him something amazing, helping so many more people in so many places. It may be jarring at first seeing 100s of 1,000s of you but you get used to it, depending on his hp (whether it's 1hp or more) he could help in a lot of different ways. + he's probably one of the only ones that can engage In a battle! (So far I don't know if Dream or Ink know/can engage in turn-based battles, I think it's cool if they don't and just fight hands-on) & he can be a great moral support for the team.
(And it's fun to add honorary members or people whi are just friends of blue to help out every now in then (classic, fell, lust, swapfell, fellswap yk) )
I love how they mesh together, in angst & fluff it's so fun, they all have their problems but at the end of the day they are good people, and they try their best. Dream is their leader (though I imagine Ink used to be the leader but let Dream take on the role) & he organizes. Ink draws out their plans & makes/gets things for them. Blue Is good muscles & a strategist, he Is very good with crosswords to be fair. & They all love/care for eachother!
For the bad sanses I like the unconventional crazy group.
Nightmare, who is just doing everything willy-nilly for fun because why the hell not & he loops people on for a nice constant source of Negativity, miserable, scared & angry monsters. He finds them funny, seeing himself as higher, sending them on frivolous missions of misery that he could've done himself. And he delves into more understanding of others in his way as time progresses.
Killer who thinks he deserves no autonomy most of the time hanging around, he gets to move about, collect research, and mostly do what he wants, though sometimes he's not even sure what that is. He's rough, & sarcastic, rude, and jokey (with jokes that aren't good), Jolly, & scared & only has himself & Nightmare really (not particularly good but cool nonetheless) & adding on more characters. Horror & dust having their own goals & them all being looped into proximity for so long where they seem melded together in a way. & Cross if he's on the bad guys side being noticeable different but idk how to explain it, I adore seeing their dynamics, fighting & having fun. From killing people for the shit of it, to doing unintentional therapy by living childlike or whismically, watching silly movies, doing random crafts & anything in Nightmare's enormous castle that holds centuries of NM testing and trying, living & bringing in cultures, trying foods from different aus and cities they never knew existed on the surface, & all sorts. Them being together, isn't the healthiest but I like to imagine it's comfortable at least!
Their relationships coming from torturous to learning how to be people/monsters with eachother, maybe through broken red lenses but at least they can see, and that's a start.
hey gang im gonna run a real quick test. why do you like the star/bad sanses?
in like 7 months you’ll know the answer for why im asking this

The Ink Black Heart: Braindump
**many spoilers ahead**
Firstly I want to say apologies for the DREADFUL formatting. There’s huge spaces between sections and no line spaces within the sections. I’m fully aware. This was originally written in the notes app and the Tumblr app hates copy and paste apparently. I couldn’t bring myself to type it all in again from scratch.
But here it is! A lot of this is just me letting my brain run free and might make no sense to anyone but writing it out helps me make sense of everything for myself.
The Case
Up until about page 800, I was fully ready to come out and say I did *not* like this case. It was almost labyrinthine in the way it baffled me. So many characters, both real and virtual, and trying to figure out which real life character is which mod in the game and who could possibly be Anomie, left me with a headache a lot of the time. I had to force myself to read through the more case-heavy chapters at the beginning of the book and resist the urge to flip ahead to more main character-led/shippy content. What I will say with some pride though, is I guessed Gus was the killer very early on - which never happens for me! Real talk, and others may disagree, but I do genuinely feel like a lot of women online are mostly able to pick out that type of male character a mile off and I just sensed it from first meeting of Gus. Also the way Flavia spoke about him was very sus from the beginning. The crescendo of this case however, was probably the best of any of the books for me. My heart was genuinely beating so fast at that final scene. Gus telling Robin very matter of factly that he was going to rape Robin before he killed her made my spine shiver. And then Strike being stabbed!! Absolutely did not see any of that coming and audibly gasped a few times. Something else that wasn’t hard to notice was how much danger this case put everyone in; the letter bomb at the office, the dude being pushed into the path of a train and Robin jumping down to help, the entire end scene with Gus - this book seemed to place everyone, particularly Robin, in peril at some point. As an aside though, I like the sense of renewal and reborn that the office explosion seemed to give. It feels like a fresh start is about to happen and I really do think that’s intentionally symbolic and hopefully a hint to good things to come.
Character Development
I’ve loved the development of more “minor” characters in IBH. Particularly Ilsa and Robin’s close friendship and her love life advice. Ilsa is the OG strellacott shipper and it gives me LIFE. I love that she’s there to remind Robin all the things that us as readers want her to know about the way Strike sees and values her. I think the reader is able to see so much of themselves and their thoughts on Corm and Robin reflected by Ilsa, I know I do, and that’s why I genuinely shed a little happy tear at her pregnancy news. Again, a rebirth and a renewal - seems to be a fledgling theme of sorts!! Also definitely worthy of a mention is Strike and Barclay’s bantery friendship. Absolutely loved the way they bounce off eachother and hope there’s more to come. Pat really endeared herself to me in IBH, she seems to have a secret soft spot for Cormoran that makes me so happy. Her basically saving Cormoran’s life and then dusting herself off and worrying more about her e-cig was just iconic. I also love the introduction of Midge!!! I need more Midge content in my life and I hope she gets a bit more involved with the other characters next book.

I remember there was some debate after Troubled Blood as to whether we’d be seeing Charlotte again. Cormoran had deleted her phone number and all roads were leading to Robin at that point. However, Charlotte is Charlotte. Deleting her number isn’t going to deter her and my girl knows people who know people who know people. She was always going to creep back somehow.
Might be contentious, but part of me did think a little bit of Cormoran at the beginning of this book wasn’t fully over Charlotte, deep down. When Valentine told him about Madeline’s connection to Charlotte, he didn’t run a mile as I - and to be fair, most people - would if the guy I was chatting up turned out to be matey with a particularly batshit ex of mine. I found it really really interesting to see him date a girl that both looked like Robin physically, but knew Charlotte on a social level and had similar social climber tendencies. It’s almost as if it was his way of having a little bit of both, and ultimately realising that can’t work. What’s changed though, and what made my heart happy, was Cormoran’s reaction to Charlotte’s clear manipulation and advances. A part of me did really think we’d have a Charmoran (?) reprisal at one point, but he seems almost…pitiful toward her? He truly does seem to have moved on - and this was seen in that almost seismic revelation toward the end of the book that Charlotte doesn’t care a damn about her children, and there aren’t any hidden sensitive depths to her as he had once believed. This was big for me as a reader as if I’m honest, I’d thought he’d came to that conclusion a long time ago but clearly he hadn’t, so seeing it on paper gave a sense of finality that was so refreshing to read. Do I think we’ve seen the last of Charlotte now? Maybe not in terms of her being mentioned. I’m sure she’ll crop up at some point even if it’s just an update on where her life is at. But I do genuinely believe this is finally the last of Cormoran being in any way affected by her.
Corm & Robin
So the big one, of course, is that we got two admissions of love!!!! Or at very least Cormoran now concedes he can’t deny ‘its’ existence. That’s an admission to me! This is huge. I do truly hope that this is the last book of slow burn before we see actual romantic content. I know RG said in interview that they feel Robin and Cormoran both need to fix a lot about themselves before they can be ready for one another and I do believe we saw a lot of that in IBH. It felt a lot different than previous instalments in terms of emotional development from both; I noticed, for example, Robin taking Cormoran to task for any snarky offhand comments she found patronising or insulting, telling him specifically why she didn’t like them. In books gone by, she’d brood over those comments for days before either letting it go or waiting until Cormoran realised his errors and apologised. There’s the obvious changes too, of course. As much as I hated reading about Robin kissing Pez or agreeing to date Ryan, I get why she needed to do that. I feel like most of us have told a girlfriend that they should broaden their horizons and see different people after a breakup, so I’d likely give that advice to Robin. That said though, the end of the Coda chapter absolutely killed. Me. Off. I can’t pretend I’m not planning some kind of quickfic about two certain people going on the most disastrous date anyone’s ever been on…. A central theme of the book was Cormoran’s health finally catching up with him, and his complete bullish stubbornness in regard to doing anything about it. I think a lot of us know somebody like this. My own dad would rather chew his fingers off than admit he might be a little bit unwell, for example. So we all know how frustrating it is to see someone in total pain and letting the problem fester and worsen when they could just swallow their pride and sort it out early on. If we want to get all CliffNotes over here - and made no mistake, I always wanna get CliffNotey - this is mirrored with Corm’s refusal to face his feelings for Robin head on, choosing to let them simmer away and letting Robin think he’s uninterested, or his avoidance of his father and extended family. Cormoran is a really brave guy, but he’s also quite a daft one. His daftness, combined with that ever-present overprotectiveness, however, provided us with the most quotable and gif-able comment of the whole series - “I don’t want to lose you” - cue me, in the words of Ms Swift: screaming, crying. And ultimately, I think this is what pushes him to improve his health and lifestyle. Sure, being stabbed and almost losing even more of his leg helped, but he wants to be better for Robin. She doesn’t want to lose him so he won’t let himself be lost. If I think too much about it I’ll dissolve into a puddle of goo. I feel like book 7 will see a real kiss at least. I think Robin’s hesitation with Strike’s attempt came from not being quite there yet with her realisation of feelings. As much as I would have loved it to be then, it wouldn’t have been right. There would have been more questions raised than either were happy answering and a lot of doubts and discomfort. My genuine prediction is that when it does happen it’ll be in very dramatic circumstances or very much like chapter 58 from Troubled Blood. I’m picturing either a near death scenario on the one hand, or a whiskey-soaked lamplit late-night rendezvous on the other. Both equally delicious…. Either way, Robin’s name is etched on the door now so they’re as good as married in my eyes x

I've done so many headcannons of nightmares gang now it's time for the Star sans' to get some love!
-----------
Dream is still scared to return to Dreamtale because he'll break down just seeing the tree
Ink gets artists block more frequently then most people think he does
Blues laugh always makes Dream feel better no matter what
Ink draws/paints on himself and the others when he gets bored it also calms him down if he gets worked up
Blue has been taking cooking lessons from Horror and his cooking has improved a lot
Dreams favorite song is Gristle Licker by Cattle decapitation
Inks favorite song is Its A Trip! by Joywave
Blues favorite song is Custer Pie by Led Zeppelin
They didn't originally call themselves the Star sans' But after Blue heard Horor, Dust and Killer call themselves the murder time trio he also wanted cool names with his friends
Dream doesn't need to eat to live but he LOVES trying out different foods and taste testing Blues food
While Error is an absolute heater Ink is like an AC he is ALWAYS cold to the touch and If you're holding his hand it feels like you're holding a bunch of ice cubes
Blue makes friendship bracelets for the Three of them and none of them ever take it off (its the colors brown,blue and gold all wrapped around eachother)
Inks room has paint hand prints on the ceiling and walls..and some feet prints, Dream and Blue decided not to ask
Blue usually doesn't sleep in the mansion incase Stretch needs him for something but hes at the mansion most of the time
The mansion is filled with sticky notes because Ink will write down an idea and put it on the wall and walk away from it, forget about it, have the idea again and make another sticky note and it snowballs from there
Dream has better eyesight then Blue and Ink but his reaction time is slower
Ink has the most stamina, he can do a lot for a long time without getting burned out his eye sight is the worst tho
Blue is definitely the fastest(in speed, attacks etc) but he can't keep up for long he gives it a bunch of power at the start then it dies out
Ink can crack ALL of his bones and it makes Dream extremely uncomfortable but his reaction makes ink laugh
Blue gets called mom a lot around the mansion
Dream feels his emotions tenfold what they actually are due to him being more sensitive to them
-
Dream gets extreme panic attacks if someone uses green magic on him or something that keeps him from moving due to the stone
Ink cannot be in a completely white room for longer then a few minutes before he starts to feel trapped and can't breathe
Blue probably has the worst coping mechanisms out of thr three of them, hes the one that turns to self harm and not eating when things go bad Dream usually catches this early on tho and helps the best he can
Ink makes fun of peoples Insecurities to gain the upper hand, many people have tried to tell him its not cool to do that but he really doesn't care..hes a main reason why Error doesn't like himself
Dream can't help but when he feels sadness around and he doesn't feel like dealing with it he'll increase his positive aura so the other forcibly stops feeling that way
Blue will be an absolute bitch to people when hes in a bad mood like he gets sarcastic and makes mean comments
-
Blue doesn't cuss at all, unless hes hurt or way to tired for his own good "uh, are you okay Blue?" "No i feel like shit" "wow okay time for bed"
Dream swears every now and then but its mostly when hes stressed or cant focus "you good?" "No I'm not good, this paperwork sucks ass" "seems like it"
Ink is a swear machine "HOLY SHIT BALLS THATS FUCKING INSANE!" "LANGUAGE."
---
And that's it for these boys! I will do more i just cant think of anything rn

yeah blank canvas is deer’s deadname, her chosen full name is deer of frosted winter. she doesn’t know this but in timelines where the dad deer isn’t killed by opal he dies of frostbite. bc it’s funny
homophobia and transphobia can exist in dnd. anything can, really. some campaigns make homophobia and transphobia nonexistent tho and that’s cool
since i’m feral here’s some facts about these two!!
deer is transfem and lesbian. dust is a cishet male
in a campaign where i temporarily played dust, the campaign had a mechanic where everyone had a “special”. dust’s was to make anyone who fails a wisdom save bow to him and compliment him. his ego is too large. dust is also only loyal to piece under promise of power—if someone came and offered him greater, he’d take it without hesitation, even if it meant going against piece. it’s all for him
dust doesn’t have a playlist, but he has songs in the generalized fragrant caves playlist, alongside lemon and piece. his songs include “video killed the radio star”, “shiny”, “i’m the friend that you need”, “loved”, “take back the power”, “christmas kids”, “heart for brains”, and “die house”
deer has an entire playlist to herself. it’s technically for alot of the campaigns she finds herself in (anguished ashes>murder on baker’s street, plague’s killer, fool and the fall, etc) but so many campaigns have overlap idc. she also has a toyhouse page bc she’s my blorbo
deer and opal weren’t. actually meant to be together. opal i think was just meant to be a character for deer to hate and to remind her of her past. but somebody in the campaign made a joke about them kissing and we were like “i mean that would be funny.” we’ve never turned back. ily polished antler. fragrant caves wasn’t meant to be a cult either we just kept adding reasons why it was terrible before going “wait this is starting to sound cult-like. OOPS!”
deer’s voice claim is princess luna, specifically from scootertrix the abridged. it went through some variations, it was originally belle from meta runner and for a little it was safiya nygaard. that is not a joke. dust’s voice claim is edge from the (debatably official) i hope so comic dub
i’m working on a little campaign concept of my own. in it lemon kills dust in self defense while she dies herself. deer witnesses this happen while not knowing this scientist (she’s a magic scientist here) is her mom.
deer has a habit of dn jokes. she WILL and HAS spend minutes setting one up just for that one punchline. she’s also competitive and cocky and will offer you an arm wrestling match (which, she will more than likely lose. she’s a druid she uses magic). she’s multiple times summoned a giant gorilla who she named jeremy because she thinks it’s funny and i do too
dust would have probably got deer in an arranged marriage because fragrant caves actually does that practice, but exclusively to hook her up with someone “high ranking/perceived” for his own status. opal was actually arranged as well to a guy named fern of eagle. fern is so incredibly chill with opal’s lesbianism and always felt like her heart wasn’t exactly in it, though he’d never admit that to the rest of the town. he’s their biggest ally in the “deer remains in the cult” au because, of course, opal and deer still eventually realize they’re fruits for eachother. i love fern get this man a bf
deer is very against the idea of tabaxis being compared to cats, always going on long rants whenever this happens. however, compared to other tabaxis (including my tabaxi with no association whatever, my totally original character witch sydney), deer displays more sterotypically cat behavior. she meows/purrs/hisses alot, has her attention drawn to lights/shiny things/laser pointers, casually grooms (while still actually cleaning with water), hates the feeling of water,
look at this art of an angry lesbian and her buff gf. opal could probably benchpress her. and deer would probably thank her. (this is drawn by my friend who owns opal/creek/raspy berry/fern)
also deer is in my brain. in a plural way. idk how she got there
hi you’ve opened pandora’s box i’m sorry i’m feral over deer
sooo backstorryyy! tw for like. cults/murder/abuse/arson/alcohol/etc. half of this story belongs to my friend/dm/co-player btw we scheme so much ily bestie/p
there’s these two guys. dust of chalk, and skin of a lemon. they’re raised in this cult, fragrant caves, and eventually the son of the current leaders, piece of the puzzle, kills his parents while swearing it was the will of elvio, the god they all believe in. he takes power and makes the cult 10x worse (not that it wasn’t bad before, it was a still a cult). one day dust and lemon argue and this leads to lemon leaving!!
lemon meets this guy, i’m adjusting his name but currently it’s dragojar. he’s nice and charming and experiments with magic, everything lemon likes!! lemon falls in love with him, but when she, yaknow, gets pregnant and gives birth, dragojar ditches her. l. she comes back to fragrant caves and gets stopped by dust, who has worked his way up and is now a subordinate of piece. he’s still pissed at his sister for abandoning her, and even when she begs, he won’t.
they make a compromise though: lemon doesn’t think she can take care of her daughter, so she gives her to dust, trusting her brother to give her a good life. she never named her, she didn’t want to get attached, so right before she leaves, dust proclaims her name, ‘Blank Canvas’
blank, though she’d prefer her name was shortened to canvas instead, is raised in the cult and her peers don’t treat her the best! including opal of essence, a gal who’s parents died and she was then adopted by piece, who is raising her as his successor. though, at least her peer’s treatment isn’t as bad as her uncle’s.
around the age of majority, she leaves, with the help of an old deer she considers a father (animal speak w), opal witnesses her escape, as the lookout, and claims she killed blank. after all, the best way to get trust in fragrant caves is by killing traitors. (there’s some other variations of this plot point, a bunch of aus we made. in one opal confronts blank and kills deer dad, though that enough hurts her and she still lets blank escape. in another, opal confronts blank before she can even get to the outskirts and fights her until the sun rises, making her unable to escape and plummeting her already low status, also making it impossible to ever try that again)
i’m gonna focus on the plague’s killer campaign’s timeline rn, cus i wanna. so deer begins adventuring with a guy named fillios, who just wanted help to get to a town since he’s magically blind at the moment. they meet some more people and then the town burns down and kids get kidnapped and stuff. deer gets attacked and while she struggles she meets back up with the party and they find athena who guides them to a camp of rebels, who say that the queen and her court r suspected to be behind all this, so they r dragged in to help (deer doesn’t wanna, but fillios wants her to. somewhere here is when fillios finds a ferret who claims to be his god but deer is so incredibly atheist due to trauma it causes them to fight over them. lmao)
this is when i slide in the detail that deer’s an alcoholic. they go in the carriage to the kingdom and they have a time to kill. some visit the bakery while others, very much including deer, head to a bar.
the bartender tells her to get out the moment they step in. weird, anyways!!
they go to the party, they sneak around, and after deer gets in her “important task” quota (stealing a diary), she decides to get the alcohol she wished she got earlier. turns out, the hired bartender for the party is the same one, and she’s still pissed. turns out, the bartender is opal. she never wanted to see deer again.
“oh btw i’m trans”
“i don’t care. what’s a trans”
after the fun stuff wraps up (causing a riot after finding a suspicious as fuck room, finding out the rebels were actually behind everything, freeing the children they kidnapped, stopping the leader from absorbing the ferret’s god powers and the ferret becomes their true form) fillios offers deer to come back home with him. after all, he knows she just wanders. she says she has somewhere to be.
she heads back to the kingdom and to the bar. they fucking hate eachother <3 tho the spite turns into affectionate bickering into “please kiss me rn istg” “what” “what”. opal decides to reintroduce deer to fragrant caves!! bc they’re dating now and she wants deer to rejoin the family!!!!! that’s how deer almost gets sacrificed and opal gets almost killed by her adopted dad!! also how she realizes “oh shit. this place is homophobic and transphobic please stop calling my gf blank”
they leave and almost die another few times, from subordinate dust (his ego has risen ten notches), subordinate raspy berry (she is still debatably a child), and creek winds (opal’s childhood best friend turned enemy. was always jealous of opal. she’s so closeted istg it’s so funny ily creek. it’s so funny to imagine u kissing ur enemies)
oh this is so much i also got confused around the deer bit and just imagined a regular on all fours talking deer until i realised oh wait shes trans so i assume canvas took old deer dads nameeeee?
anyeays. obsessed with the enemies to lovers actually. didnt know homophobia and transphobia existed in dnd j thought it was just tiefling racism and also i love the naming conventions of the cult !!!!
i wanna knowmore bout canvas. deer? and dust!!

Oooh I just got a lovely little angst idea! (Just ignore me if this is too gory! I got into a little bit of a mood with Halloween!) Alright so, this ask is with the Underfell Bros and the Mafiatale + Mafiafell Bros. S/O has a horribly scarred up throat, like, their entire throat area is just a mesh of brutal scars weaving together into one big canvas of scars
The boys no nothing of how S/O got said scar(s), only that it’s a result of a magic attack and that S/O’s normally peaceful and open attitude quickly becomes apathetic and closed off if they ask about it. Then they get sent a video of a child S/O standing in a room packed full of people all viciously fighting eachother, until S/O says “stop”
Everything and everyone stops instantly.
The video then shows various videos of S/O being forced to control people by their mysterious kidnappers (or they get mpunished’) The final segment of the video shows S/O snapping, and in a fit of violent rage and unstable magic, ripping out their own vocal cords and escaping from wherever they were held captive
Underfell Sans - He's horrified. He can't stop watching the last video again and again. How desperate must you have been to do this? He understands why you don't want to talk about this, and he will not do either. If you want to talk about it, it will because you wanted it. Though he will be stangely clingy and cuddly for a few days, so if S/O knows him well, they know something is making him anxious.
Underfell Papyrus - He hates this. He hates every second of it. It reminds him too much of how he got conditionned to be a killer and a royal guard. His instructor had to break him before turning him into the fearless Captain he became. That's why he couldn't be angry Underground with Undyne trying to be mean to him. He knew that she went through too. Edge thought these memories deeply burried in his mind and now he is crying like a child, traumatised, realising that the Surface is not any better than his own government. When S/O steps in, it's the first (and probably last) time they saw him this broken. You are so disturbed you're calling his brother immediately. When he calmed down, he will reveal what he learned and let go of everything he'd been through too. He doesn't care if you don't want to talk about this. He needs to let go or he's going to have a violent breakdown. Red is so triggered by all these explanations, he knew Edge's training went bad, but he had no idea of HOW bad it was. Some hours later, Edge's old instructor is found dead, just as the last guys that hurted you. No one knew who did it except the two of you. Red won't ask for anything in return, he will just be a little softer for a few days.
Mafiatale Sans - He refuses to see the video without your consent. He doesn't know who send it. So the only way he saw it was with you. He is not happy about what he's seeing right now, more especially because he knows who these guys are since they are one of the rival mafias of the city and that the guys they made you kill were close friends from his own clan. He is extremely pissed off. He hesitates, but then explain you his work. He can understand if you want to leave knowing he is no better than these guys, but he can't keep this a secret. He has to tell Asgore and Toriel so they can work again on their case. He's even proposing you to join him. He'll understand if you say no. He doesn't want you to be even more triggered. He can do this on his own too.
Mafiatale Papyrus - Just like his brother, he is very shocked to see you manpulate and get killed some of his friends. He knows it's not your fault, but he just can't unseen it. Everytime he's looking at you, he sees himself screaming in a pool of clothes and dust. He's badly shaking and will take his distances for a while, he will also burn the video. You will never understand why he suddenly got so cold with you. He won't tell you. He's too hurt. However, he's telling his brother and Asgore to take care of the case immediately.
Mafiafell Sans - Once someone gets close from Fangs, there are immediately family. He doesn't care if you are his or his brother's S/O, he's treating everyone the same. And he is damn protective with family. When you're entering the house, all you find is a smashed TV, a CD broke in two parts and a note saying to not wait for him tonight nor the next few days. He's going to hunt every last bastards that hurt you, whether you want it or not. He's explaining mostly everything when he's coming back, and explains that you have nothing to fear of them again. He won't say he murder them all very slowly and painfully, but his face says all.
Mafiafell Papyrus - He's watching the video with you too, he won't if you don't want to. His face stays neutral, but his eyes said how angry he is. His hands are shaking too. Torpedo makes some research after that and knows that they are still alive. So, for once, he's doing something he always forbids himself to do and tells you all about his job. He knows he's taking a big risk, but he wants you to join him. The both of you can search for these guys and destroy their life. It's like a couple's hobby except you kill people in the end. He will respect your decisions. If you don't want them to get kill, he says he won't. Except he will do it anyway and never tells you instead. He respects you but he has too much proud and honor to let them live.

Do you have a favorite level within each game or even one out of all games / is there a specific level that stuck in your mind since you first played it?
Mine would be the second to last I think in DH1. The one, where you walk over a bridge and it's all orange light on one side and deep shadows on the other. In daud's dlcs it would be the boyle mansion, because I love the flooded building. I've loved the edge of the world in DH2 because Karnaca's atmosphere is such a breath of fresh air and the trail of whale blood through the bright and sunny district reveals very much about the game's world. For DOTO it would either be the bank job or the royal conservatory. It may sound pretty weird but the atmosphere within the bank job gives me vacation vibes lol. Also the moment you take the twin bladed knife feels amazing every time. I also really like the hidden features in the royal conservatory.
Thank you for running this blog, it really means a lot to me. Happy Pride! 🏳️🌈
Honestly all the levels in the DH series has a lot of personality in them, and so much visual storytelling. Each one has a different feeling to it while all matching up to eachother perfectly. Never do I feel like one doesn't belong with the others, they all feel part of the same world, and they feel so lived in too.
Everyone has their favorites, and you picked some good ones. I think youre refering to Kaldwin's Bridge which is a very well done level and is certainly pretty to look at, but its rather big with a lot of loading points, and it's a bit choppy and tedious for me. I do like the area around Sokolov's house though. The test subjects imprisoned in the streets and the crumbling buildings around his perfect apartment is great environmental storytelling. Personally my favorite in Dh1 is The Flooded District. The reflection it paints for Corvo, that after everything, things can still get worse and there's still a light at the end and he can't give up. That even after hating Hiram Burrows and wishing death on him, Daud hides there, in the mass grave Burrows made, protected by the rats, flood waters, rivercrusts, and weepers. It's just *chef's kiss*.
I think the one in Daud's dlc's is actually Brigmore Manor, which is one hell of a level. We learn that Daud and Delilah have a lot in common just by the way they work. They both have large followings they share their power with, hidden under everyone's nose. Dispite this, the difference in atmosphere tells the player that Daud is trespassing here. He's met someone who can match him, maybe even best him, and he has to be careful not to lose what little he has left. Brigmore is probably my fave too, but The Surge comes very close. Being in Daud's base, cutting up Overseers, and freeing his Whaler kids is very satisfying.
Edge of the World is a great intro to Karnaca. You get a feel for the atmosphere, learn about smaller power struggles (Howlers vs Overseers), and get a feel for just how bad things are there. I love taking my time in this level, finding the runes and talking to Mindy Blanchard just because it is a very pretty level that's fun to explore. I also like how it ironically leads you to Addemire, which is dark and claustrophobic. My fave in DH2 though is Crack in the Slab. Going between timelines wasn't something I'd done in a videogame before, and it made learning about Aramis Stilton and the rest of Delilah's allies extremely interesting. I love the little details you can mess with in the past to convenience you in the present too. There's a lot to go though twice over in that level, and I always find something new each playthrough. Also, in the ambience music in the present, you can hear a rhythmic banging, and I theorize you can hear the miners being overworked from Aramis' home.
And then there's DOTO... DOTO, my beloved. This game really brought Billie Lurk's character to life and I enjoy every second of it. My fave here would be Follow the Ink, for reasons similar as to why I like Edge of the World. It's nice to explore and there's so much to do story-wise, and even more to just find or interact with. I do wish the story flowed from one point on the map to the other, like how Edge of the World slowly lead you to the black market, wall of light, overseer outpost, then to Addemire Station. I find I'm going back and forth a lot in Follow the Ink, but that's nit-picking. If anything, it gives me time to stumble across things more. I will say though, The Bank Job is probably the strongest level in the game, and the writing is the best there. Billie getting a hold of the knife, pointing a finger in The Outsider's face and telling him she's coiming, no matter what it takes, only for The Outsider to look her in the eyes and tell her that Daud, the closest Billie had ever come to family, is dead?... Heartbreaking. I'm racing back to the ship. I know he's lying, and he has to be, right? But nope, he wasn't. Billie burning her ship called Dreadful Wale, an anagram for Farewell Daud, as his pyre hurts so much. I love the very ending too and how Daud is low chaos option, and to be honest, I shouldn't have been surprised by that. Ironically, mercy and forgiveness were themes in the background of Daud's dlcs.
Some honorable mentions would be:
-Bottle Street/Holger Square: Learning about Overssers, Slackjaw, Granny Rags and you get to see my man Geoff Curnow! Please switch the poison btw.
-Lady Boyle's Last Party: You fuck around with guards and rich ppl bc they think you're one of them and that's quite the critique on the upperclass huh. Don't forget to sign the guestbook as The Empress' alleged assassin!
Return to The Tower: Hiram Burrows is finally his own undoing, and his worst nightmares have come true! What a satisfying downfall. How poetic. Bitch deserved everything he got.
-Light at the End: In high chaos, Martin shoots Pendleton after calling him inbred and that's hilarious to me. Also in low chaos. Emily will scold Havelock and tell him to "sit in the corner and think about what [he's] done!" In honesty, it's a good climax.
-Eminent Domain: Timpsh's downfall in low chaos is one of the most poetic and well written eliminations in the games. Seeing him faint in front of a General of the City Watch always makes me laugh.
-Coldridge Prison: Revisiting the place as Daud and seeing how it's changed since Corvo's escape was very interesting. There's a lot of details to interact with like other prisoners, executions, and doomed escape attempts.
-Addemire Institute: The Crown Killer was an interesting antagonist, and there's a lot of notes and clues to what Addemire was like before The Duke ruined it. The entire situation is very tragic, but not all is lost!
-The Dust District: It's just really fun to explore Karnaca ok? Also Corvo's old house is there.
-Hole in the World: I love how it hints that there's a low chaos option, but you don't realize it until you talk with Daud’s spirit and all the hints come together. I like wandering around the place too since we don't get to see The Void this much anywhere else.
Sorry this was so long, but I really love how well thought out these game are, and I really rambled! Happy pride to you too!

Forget You (Kuroo x Reader)
A/N: This one is told entirely from Kuroos pov except for the very beginning. Because, Reader's pov wouldn't have been sad. As she doesn't remember him by the time they see eachother again. Edit: Y'all deadass let me not have the theme in here since the 24th. The theme has been added as of the 29th.
WARNINGS: None really? Angst Kuroo is a sad boy. Tooth rotting fluff from Bokuto i guess if that counts as a warning. Kuroo yells at you in the beginning.
Date: Saturday October 24th, 2020
Details: 5.5 pages 2,040 words
Theme: Stranger- when you get heartbroken you have the option of forgetting the person who caused the heart break as long as you say the word stranger with enough conviction while thinking about the person you want to forget.
Angst masterlist
“I can’t fucking stand you! Why are you so Goddamn annoying!” I took a step back as I looked at Kuroo “All I asked was to meet your friends! Since you talk about them all the time!” I yelled back. I didn’t know what had made him so mad we had been dating for six months having been roommates previously.
“And I told you no so why didn’t you accept that?” I shook my head “Actually you just started yelling at me-" “God see! You always have to be fucking right about everything!” I flinched as his voice raised more “You know what? Get the fuck out,” I looked up at him “w-what?” I voiced “Get your shit and get out I don’t wanna see you again. I’m breaking up with you,” My other roommate Kenma had finally come out of his room at that “Hey Kuroo-" I held up my hand to stop Kenma “No…its okay i-i'll leave but I’m leaving my stuff here until I have a new place. Kenma I leave it in your care,” my voice was shaky as I turned.
“Y/n…,” I shook my head at Kenma “I…I’ll see you later Kenma. Kuroo,” I turned a glare on him to see he was already glaring at me “I hope I never fucking see you again,” I turned on my heel leaving the apartment with heavy footsteps. It was sunset and my feet carried me to the trains I took a random one and let my feet carry me as I ended up at park. I had no idea where I was but I couldn’t find myself to care as I cried.
I wiped my tears slightly thinking about Kuroo and I knew then I didn’t want him to occupy my thoughts anymore. I looked at the sunset and focused before saying the word with as much conviction and venom as I could muster. “Stranger,” I blinked a few times and rubbed my eyes.
More tears leaked out of my eyes when I recalled my roommate Kenma had kicked me out of our apartment. “Where am I?” I whispered sighing as I realized my phone was dead.
“Excuse me…Are you okay?” I turned my head looking at a guy who stood next to the bench. He had what appeared to be silver and black hair his head tilted slightly to the side casting half his face in the dying sunlight. I vaguely noticed that his eyes were gold and seemed to glow despite no light being cast on them. “I…I think so?” I voiced as I looked back at him.
“You think so? Why are you crying in the park then?” He got closer and sat on the other side of the bench. “My roommate kicked me out of our apartment and my phone is dead so…,” I looked away as he hummed “Um…You could stay at my place,” I turned back to look at him with wide eyes. “I don’t even know your name and you’re asking me to stay at your place? Do you know that makes you sound like a serial killer?” He laughed suddenly eyes crinkling in mirth.
“Sorry I’ve been told I’m too nice by my teammates. Im Bokuto Koutarou,” He held out a hand giving me a smile. I took his hand and mirrored the smile “Y/n L/n. You’re on a sports team?” His smile widened suddenly and in his excitement he pulled me closer still holding onto my hand “Yeah! Volleyball I play for the MSBY Black Jackals,” he puffed his chest with a sense of pride causing me to laugh.
“Volleyball huh? Sounds like fun,” He nodded rapidly “It is! You should come to one of my games- ah sorry! I’ve been talking about me when you’re the one who’s sad,” I shook my head with a smile as he let go of my hands eyes wide in panic “Its okay. I’m not sad anymore but I think I will take you up on that offer as long as you promise not to hurt me,” I held up my pinky towards him giggling lightly.
He smiled widely hooking his pinky with my own “I promise. This will be the best adventure of your life,” I nodded at him “I’ll hold you too that Bokuto,” He chuckled at me
“Deal Y/n,”
Two years.
It had been two years since I’d seen the love of my life. I regretted it everyday since our argument and Kenma never made me feel better about it. “No she never talks about you or asks. And I don’t bring you up,” was the last thing he told me when I asked about her. I never meant to yell or kick her out and I’d never forgiven myself for it. She had blocked my number fairly quickly and Kenma never told me where she was.
“Hey Kuroo pay attention to the game,” Kenma voiced causing me to zone back in and stop thinking about Y/n. I sighed “Why are we even here?” I asked watching Bokuto preform a cross-shot that had the audience screaming. “Bokuto said he wanted to say something and he wanted all of us there,” I shrugged “He’s probably just gonna tell us that he’s got a spot on the Japanese Olympics team,” I sighed out while Kenma clicked his tounge. “Sure…,” I looked at him “Kenma do you know something I don’t?” Before he could answer the whistle blew announcing the Black Jackals as the winners of the match.
Kenma stood “Let’s go congratulate them,” I stood with him as he walked off “Hey you didn’t answer the question!” He kept a quick pace ahead of me while I followed. We stepped onto the court Kenma immediately going to Hinata I couldn’t see Bokuto but my eyes caught sight of a familiar face standing by the Miya twins. She laughed at something Atsumu said and laughed harder when Osamu added something that caused Atsumu to glare at him.
I gasped as I looked at her she looked just as beautiful as she did the last time I saw her. H/l h/c hair cascaded down her back her e/c eyes sparkled brightly like gems she wore a Black Jackals jersey and a pair of jeans both of which hugged her figure in just the right way. I let my feet carry me towards her knowing I needed to apologize. I didn’t know why she was here but Kenma probably invited her so I could see her.
“Y/n!” I called when I was close enough she turned her eyes meeting mine. I expected many emotions to pass her face in all the times I pictured seeing her again. Anger, sadness, happiness, etc. But confusion was never one that crossed my mind. “I’m sorry…Do I know you?” she asked causing my eyes to widen in shock. “No…You couldn’t have…,” I voiced quietly. She stared at me offering a slight smile but nowhere in her expression did I see any form of recognition. And I knew then she had forgotten me entirely.
I smiled back realizing I could start over with her “Sorry I’m Kuroo Tetsuro…You’re very beautiful,” her face turned pink slightly and the Miya twins laughed. Suddenly I saw familiarity light up her eyes and I smiled thinking she remembered me. “Oh! I know you! You’re the friend that Kou always wants me to meet! He gets so sad everytime you blow him off,” she frowned slightly at the end. Causing me to frown as I realized she really didn’t remember. But I also frowned at the name it was vaguely familiar though I couldn’t place where. “Kou?” I mumbled quietly to myself.
“Excuse me! Can I have everyone’s attention?” the gym quieted down everyone knew Bokuto was announcing something so most of the audience had stayed to listen. We all turned to the source of the voice and I noted that he looked beyond nervous for whatever he planned to say.
“I’d like for my beautiful girlfriend to come here,” The twins suddenly shoved Y/n forward causing her to stumble a bit but she walked forward anyway. I froze as the name connected in my mind on why its so familiar 'Kou…Koutarou' 'She calls me Kou and its so cute!' I saw her stop next to him and they smiled at each other “Oh fuck,” I whispered to myself as Kenma slid over. Bokuto was fidgeting slightly and rocking on the balls of his feet a telling sign that he was anxious.
“I’ve got something to say and I’ve thought about it for awhile,” he sent a reassuring smile at her when he noticed she looked nervous. He took a deep breath before continuing “Two years ago I found you crying in a park. I remember you told me that your roommate kicked you out and you called me a serial killer,” she turned red as he and others laughed.
I realized then that the day they met was the same day we broke up. “I took a leap of faith that day and told you that you could stay with me even though I had no reason to,” He chucked lightly at the pink dusting her cheeks “At the time I never would predicted that by the six month mark I would have fallen in love with you,” I frowned at the collective aw leaving the audiences mouths. 'That should be me' I thought as I watched the two of them.
“And after a year and a half I’ve decided that I want to spend the rest of my life making you happy. I want to wake up with you next to me, I want to laugh at everything and nothing with you, I want to spend nights with you wrapped in my arms as we talk about whatever comes to mind,” a pink flush had taken over his face and from behind me I heard a sniffle.
“Tsumu are you crying?” I heard “Shut the fuck up Samu,” Kenma snorted next to me at the twins. “I want these things because I’m so completely and Irrevocably in love with you so…,” I watched Bokutos eyes flicker to Akaashi who nodded at him. He dropped to one knee and everything became a buzz as I zoned in on Y/n the audience gasping was barely audible to me as I watched her cover her mouth with her hand her eyes were bright and glassy and every fiber of my being screamed at me to stop this. ‘Get her back! Stop him!’ my mind screamed. I couldn’t move though I was frozen on the spot feeling like id just been doused with freezing cold water.
“Will you do me the honor of continuing this adventure and marry me?” I could hear Bokuto but it sounded so distant to me. ‘No! Say no!’ My mind screamed louder but I felt my heart crack as she nodded in response. He got back up to wrap his arms around her picking her up he spun her around a few times and buried his face in the crook of her neck pressing light kisses to her shoulder.
‘Get away from her!’ I shook my head as I watched him slip a silver band on her finger. I caught sight of the f/c gem attached to it. It was surrounded by small yellow gems that matched Bokuto's eyes. He kissed her cheek as everyone cheered and congratulated them. She pulled back pulling out a small envelope and pressing it into his hands. He looked at her and opened it before his eyes lit up even more. He whispered something to her to which she nodded at. His excitement couldn’t be contained as he picked her up again “I’m gonna be a dad!” He didn’t need the mic this time plenty loud enough without it but it reignited the audience’s excitement as they screamed again.
He placed her down wrapping an arm around her waist and finally I watched my entire world shatter and heart crumble as the love of my life kissed her fiancé and father of her children.
‘That should have been me'
