reginald's the kind of guy who is, like, really against swearing. he's an 'oh my gosh'-er and recites 'sugar honey iced tea' whenever he bashes into something

[kitkatusagihime]

Guess I’ll have to make sure I’m active here again while Twitter burns down

[kitkatyes]

i'm very bored rn so ramble time :]

so,,, octo expansion is like, peak Zoraxis activity

we got the mysterious phone guy who literally wants to eradicate everything (cough cough, death engine parallels cough cough) and agent 8 being the person to stop it. THE FACT THAT THEY'RE CALLED AGENT !!

We also got the random tasks. like, i can imagine fabby putting that together. i mean when WOULD be sadistic enough to make the stupid 8-ball levels

can I talk about the agent 3 fight,,, they're literally being controlled against their own will

it givies me hivemind vibes,, his mind control and all that

and like agent 8 is SO phoenix with amnesia,,, and like pearl and marina act so much like reggie. they literally communicate with 8 using textlogs an stuff hhhhh they can be reggie and prism, as a treat

anyway, its like,, phoenix escaping from the grasps of Zoraxis before being recruited for the agency

[kitkatyes]

are you trying to say the computers ATE him??? HUH?? Is this the game we're playing right now??

[kitkatyes]

I am loosing it <- being normal about a kids tv show bc they got too nostalgic

[kitkatyes]

But like,,,

The bear archer is Zor an they are all gooped up like tartar,,,

THE GOOP IS SUPPOSED TO BE RED BTW BUT I ONLY HAVE AN ORANGE HIGHLIGHTER

[kitkatyes]

Fine.

Phoenix if they were a funny octopus

must draw them later,,,

[kitkatyes]

Okay, but what if we all made little robot/robutler ocs

I think that would be so fun for no reason

[kitkatyes]

Okay so I’m replaying ieytd 1 rn and I’m on operation: winter break, right? Tell me why Zor owns a copy of the eod suduction handbook????

Gonna do a line break here before I ramble for too long—

So like, I can’t see a reason why they’d have it in the first place? It’s nestled between other books such as; just shoot them: common pitfalls of eccentric villainy, the essential guide to evil taxidermy, guidelines: secret compartments. So why would it appear with them? They have no correlation, and I don’t see why it would need to be in their secret cabin out in the middle of nowhere.

I suppose, in a sense we get a glimpse into Zor’s mind and personality. We see that they like research as showcased by the books on crystals and gravity manipulation. But I suppose that the seduction handbook is more so nestled between the personal ‘interests’ section of the shelf. Taxidermy while, odd in a sense could be a personal hobby of Zors. We even see secret compartments in the cabin that would likely feature in the corresponding book.

It just makes no sense. Why would they have that book— Stealing it is out of the question. No agent would bring that book with them on a mission. No agent would die with that on their person. So why would Zor have it?

Let’s not forget the portrait of Vitti behind the desk and the eod lighter in the safe behind it. Through the portrait of Vitti, we can infer this as a sign of a possible relationship between the two. It’s the only reason I can really justify it. Maybe Vitti stole the seduction handbook as a gag gift of sorts. Maybe Zor just took it after leaving the agency.

There’s no other way this makes sense. No other way I can think of justifying this. No other reason why they’d have the goddamn seduction handbook.

[kitkatyes]

Huh, would you look at that? It’s been a year since my ieytd insanity began

I absolutely am so normal about this silly spy game and I’m so glad that there are so many people who feel the same way <3

Im gonna take this moment to dump some of my favourite things I’ve made over the course of the year cause I’m feeling real sentimental (I also really wanted to draw something but alas, school got in my way)

More below the cut!

[kitkatyes]

I have been, once again, obsessed with TMA and newly, TMAGP and well, it seems to have translated to ieytd so...

ieytd characters assigned with fears

Obligatory warning for spoilers, both tma and all the ieytd games

While I'd love to have a set fear for every character in the games, I don't really know too much about the less-mentioned characters but I still have a decent chunk of them.

Linebreak because I definitely over-analysed this

So we all agree that the Agency has a distinct Eye flavour, right?

Reginald is definitely solely Eye-- more so in the watching aspect. He doesn't have anything in the Knowing department (be so real right now, he's dumb as bricks /aff) but definitely Watches his agents with a close eye.

Prisim on the other hand, while tinged with the Eye definitely has been affected by the Buried. In the sense that she is constantly buried under her expectations to achieve. She created the TK implant, she has to live up to those standards.

Director Morales is definitely like the Elias of the Agency. Does nothing but look pretty for the Eye, serving as a vessel.

Phoenix is really hard to decipher. I originally thought they'd be Desolation because of the fire motif but thinking about it more, they're a bit closer to the End with their penchant to avoid death.

Honestly, Zor reeks of the web. They hide in the shadows orchestrating their evil plans, coordinating and manipulating as many people as they can.

Fabby is an interesting one to me. She's definitely the Hunt. She finds so much joy in creating these traps for unsuspecting EOD agents to fall witness to. The thrill of the hunt and all that jazz.

Hivemind is so silly. So silly that they're somehow both the Web and Spiral. We see that he's got the mind control device in ieytd 3 as well as a mind-wiper. I'm sure anyone would feel like they're going crazy if they're suddenly missing a decent chunk of their memory.

Solaris is vast. She loves space and practically lived on the death engine. But, I can also see her being affected by the Lonely. She doesn't exactly have anyone stable considering the rotating cast of people sent to work on the Death Engine.

Anna gives off Slaughter vibes. I don't really know how to describe it other than the music motif she has. Pied Piper and all that shit.

Daniel Sans, despite the fact he has like, two minutes of screentime ABSOLUTELY is Corruption. Bro wants to unleash a supervirus??? Tell me that doesn't scream Corruption.

John Juniper. Oh, Juni. He has definitely been affected by the Eye. Being an actor in the spotlight would have consequences. But, I see him affiliated with the Stranger. He'd be so uncanny with his masks, both literal and metaphorical.

Ollie is Lonely. He's been stuck underwater for HOW long? That'd do something to a person

[kitkatyes]

thinking about how silly my phoenix is

they are ambidextrous but prefer using their left hand (yet they refuse to write with their left hand because they don't want to smudge the ink)

they are like a cat and will knock over a glass if it's too close to the edge of a table

they never speak but will talk their head off to themself when alone

they absolutely cannot cook to save their life

they 100% dressed up like a pirate with a peg leg after they lost it

they have mixed all the energy drinks they could find in the supermarket one time because they were dared to (and they liked how it tasted despite the fact they were up for an entire night)

they're fluent in a couple languages but know all the swear words in the rest

they like messing with random people on the street using their TK-- like, they'll move a shopping trolley slightly when someone's not looking or will move a dropped note

they can drive but they are nowhere near legally licensed

they absolutely despise doctors and other medical professionals because they force them to take a break :(

they always take a small plushie with them on long missions cause they can't sleep without one

they have horrible eyesight but refused to get glasses when they were younger

their favourite colour isn't actually red despite the fact it's the only colour they wear

[kitkatyes]

I can’t sleep so here’s my thoughts on a hypothetical tma ieytd au

Something, something major tma + minor ieytd 3 spoilers

I really like the thought of Phoenix being in artefact storage. But, like, they’re more into the artefact retrieval aspect of it. I can just imagine Phoenix breaking into someplace with half an earbud in plugged into some mobile phone from who-knows-when with their handler rattling on about what they need to get

I’m tossing up weather Zor or Morales should be the head of the institute. They both make sense, I think. Both are the big bosses of their companies, after all. Wait… what if it’s a Jonah situation: it’s Morales’ body but Zor’s mind??? I feel like such a genius (it is 2am, I am exhausted from my schools production and I’m letting my brain run wild)

Okay, whoever is the Elias stand-in would Know that Phoenix is an avatar of the End (their uncanny ability to escape death etc.) and thus, keeps sending them to get all the artefacts: it is quite annoying to replace staff that have been devoured via homophobic vases and other such artefacts, after all. Their handler is none the wiser to the

Juniper would definitely try and do the Unknowing and Phoenix has definitely confiscated at least one of his masks over the years

HOLY SHIT WHAT ID THE HANDLER WAS LIKE SASHA AND GOT FUCKING SNATCHED KDNFVKJHFD

I AM CONNECTING THR DOTS— THINKING OF OPERATION SAFE AND SOUND WHERE JUNIPER STEALS HIS VOICE WHAT IF HE JUST STEALS HIS BEING???

PHOENIX DOESNT NOTICE BUT PRISM DOES AND THEN THEY REALISE

I love Phoenix so much (giving them immense trauma)

What if after that, they get ‘promoted’ to the archives branch— either as archival assistant or The Archivist

“I understand that your coworker was forcibly replaced by some weird creature but here, do paperwork instead of running around like a lunatic; I promise it’ll make you feel better”

Worm incident but it’s bees. I don’t think I need to explain who this is

Im gonna go pass out now bc i desperately need sleep, gn

[kitkatyes]

It's an absolute CRIME that I haven't shown this here yet-- but I suppose that I've only just reached the point in my fic where this happens

this stupid thing has been sitting in my planning document since I started writing my multi-chapter fic and I think y'all deserve to see it

[kitkatyes]

I just finished a 200k word fic and tell me why there’s a second part with another 168k [is still going to read it]

[kitkatyes]

i like splatoon a normal amount,,,
