Tried to make it as full as I can, but there could be stuff that I'm missing or simply can't remember, but I hope it's good enough

I think first two layers are clear: the sky is for general information that most people expect to see when finding this media, and the top is for those who watched the series. I think I should break down some points in the rest.

Layer 3

Book version of s1. That's all it is. It has a map and character descriptions, but nothing interesting beside that.

Level 2.0 books. Haven't read them, so I can't tell what's happening there. I'm not sure if it's even based off the animated series, I think it bases on the original books, but it uses the series characters designs.

Markus' mother, Raban's aunt. In s1e5 you can see Markus' mother, Tamara. Raban's aunt is mentioned in s2e4, she lives in Höchstadt.

Surnames. Only a few characters have canon surnames in the series, the rest are taken from books and movies.

Layer 4

Map. From the book that I've mentioned in layer 3.

Beta designs. Honestly, I have no idea what that is and where it came from. I assume it's old designs, but I'm not sure.

Absence of s1e10 in Finnish dub. I heard it was banned due to depiction of cruel bullying.

Spanish Deniz. So they've changed his name to Rico Perez in eng version and now many Russians and probably English viewers who don't know about the original think he has spanish roots instead of turkish.

Layer 5

Marlon without dredlocks. There's merch where Marlon is depicted with loose hair.

Nerv and others in lvl 2 books. They're litteraly on the cover. Also would like to mention a different cover for that book that I've found.

Arabic intro. Nothing special, you just get to see this lil thing at the beginning.

April. A girl from lvl 2 books that seems to be Marlon's love interest or something???

Layer 6

Conny had alcoholism. A theory about the reason why Jojo ended up in a orphanage. It appears to be canon in the books, as far as I know.

Surnames. Natasha's surname comes from the 6th film I think, there was a niece of Mickey with that surname.

The holy apple vodka. A local meme in Russian community from, like, 2019 or 2020 I guess.

Censorship. You can see the full clip here.

Shimeji Leon. This guy.

Layer 7

Weird implications. It's just... The Mayer thing.

Franz is Jojo's dad. I mean look at them.

Refences to serial killers. In s1e10 you can see doorbells with the names of some serial killers/rapists, cult leaders and tyrants. Why would they put that in a kids show? Idk

Deleted animation meme. ''Untrust us'' meme based off Benz' dark AU and created by her as well.

Layer 8

Here assembled things I think very few people know about or seen??? Even I don't know what are some of those.

The play. No Idea what this is, but maybe a play of some kind...

DWK website. Or a game?? Idk, I just found this pic like 5 years ago or so.

Deleted tributes. Clips that I've made at the age of 11, inspired by those mlp slideshows and posted it on YouTube. You never gonna see it tho.

Mettaton Markus. Yeah, that happened.

Leon/Sailor Moon. Oh, deviantart, thank you for having people that do these edits.

Hiii bestiee!!!! How was was your day??

I'm obsessed by the way you have written sex tutor H!!! It was so perfect like Ahhh can't wait for part 2!!!

No pressure tho but was just wondering how is Mean king harry is!! Earlier you have posted a lil sneaky that was so perfect so is there any chance that you could give a lil sneaky of it!! Nd if not then it's okay too!!:)

Ahhh thank you! I'm just so happy y'all seemed to love sex tutor so much! Part 2 is in the works!

Mean King is slowly coming alive. It's a lot of work, though. Period pieces take a bit more research and while I'm sure I'm not going to get everything 100% right, I want to do the story justice. I can't say when it'll be ready quite yet.

BUT! Here's another sneaky for you since you asked so nicely :)

First sneak peek to mean king!harry here.

👑👑👑👑

But there was also the concern of the King’s marital status.

“You’ll need a Queen. Someone to continue the Styles’ lineage for Thornekeep. The people will want to know they are under the rule of a stable Sovereign.”

“What does it matter how the people feel? I can rule without a Queen. I’d rather not be hindered,” Harry waved a hand as he spoke unconcerned.

“Your Majesty, with all due respect, how do you expect to have a child out of wedlock?”

The cheeky grin that pulled up on Harry’s face had his advisor suddenly standing to stop the King from answering that question but Harry only laughed and looked at the man, “Sit. Do not interrupt me again. I think Our Lord Mayer would like a lesson in biology and I’m not one to turn down a teaching moment.”

The advisor relented with a sigh, sitting down (what was he to do? tell the King not to speak?), and Harry began, “One does not need the burden of wedlock to create offspring. It’s quite simple you see…” all the men knew where this was going as Harry continued, “All I need to do is stick my fiddle within the sweet quim whiskers of a beautiful woman and keep it in until I’ve done my duty. Could take a few rounds to set but I imagine soon enough the woman receiving my bounty will be heavy with child and upon the moment of birth will provide me an heir. No need for a marital contract of any sort.”

The men of the council looked around at one another in near shock at Harry’s dismissal of tradition as the Lord Mayor spoke, “That will not do. It is imperative you find a Queen, my King. You need a woman that will raise said heir in the castle with you, bring them up properly, and teach them our ways. This will be your legacy. You must see that.”

Harry knew of course that his words would fall on deaf ears. He knew he’d have to marry and make a show of it. But he did enjoy seeing the looks on the faces of the fancy and feathered men, all tensed with their sleek coverings of velvet and wool and white tights tucked into silk and leather shoes with shiny silver buckles and heels that made them appear taller than they were.

“Fine. I’ll have my selection in a fortnight.”

His selection. As if he were choosing a dish to be served for dinner. But that is how Harry saw it after all. He would have his choice of dishes just as he would have his choice of women. It would be the roasted venison with piping hot potatoes, smothered in butter, and artichokes for his dinner, and for his wife, he’d take the pretty redhead with the plump bottom and big bosom lying in his bed. She had the kind of tummy that would take a child well he figured.

  //   (  niko terho  .  cis male  .  he/him  )  .    ⸻  elliot mayers   ,  a  twenty-seven   year  old  ,  has  survived  another  day  in  red  creek  where  they  have  lived  for  twenty-five years  .  the  reformed  is  known  for  being  cheerful  and  rebellious  and  is  often  associated  with  infectious laughter, early morning runs, and a shit-eating grin  .  in  a  small  town  where  they  work  as  a deputy  word  travels  fast  .  it’s  hard  to  keep  a  secret  ,  and  it  looks  like  the  boogeyman  knows  redacted  (  dee  ,  21+  ,  est  ,  she/her  )  .

BASICS:

NAME: Elliot Mayers

KNOWN AS: Elliot, El, Mayers

BIRTHDATE:  June 5, 1997

ASTROLOGY:  Gemini sun / Gemini moon / Sagittarius rising

HOMETOWN: Red Creek, MI

SEXUAL ORIENTATION: Bisexual

HEIGHT:  5'10"

OCCUPATION: Deputy for the Sheriff's office

QUICK FACTS:

born the youngest child in a family of six, several years younger than the brother closest in age with him. clearly an oopsie baby, and by the time he came around his parents were older and uninterested in starting over with a new kid. in turn elliot sort of flew under the radar from his family, forced to go outside and hang out with kids in the neighborhood if he wanted to have any real fun.

there's not a lot of fun in red creek, so elliot made his own. rebellious by nature—and with some undiagnosed adhd that most adults didn't know how to deal with—him and his friends were a force to be reckoned with. the kind of tweens and teens you see in a group and just know they're up to no good.

though he never had any real run-ins with the law, the sheriff's department knew him and his buddies. once or twice he'd been driven home in a cop car after not being where he was supposed to, and those seemed to be the only times his family paid him much mind.

despite being a little bit of a punk, it was hard to not like elliot; there's a charisma about him that you can't help but find endearing, kids his age & adults alike. he's still like that today—likely how he got his job as a deputy, despite his reputation in town

elliot never had any problems with red creek, but towards the end of high school he started picturing a life outside of the bubble he's known his whole life. grades had never been his specialty, but with the help of his girlfriend at the time, he scraped together enough to earn himself admission to a state school. it was still michigan, but at least it was something different.

he thrived for a while, before eventually dropping out two years in. it's not something he likes to talk about, but being away from home was harder than he expected—as was college. instead he transferred to a nearby school and finished his degree at home (C's get degrees).

but being away for a few years had changed him; no longer was he the lil punk around the neighborhood. and nothing was so true than when he applied to work for the sheriff's department, something many of his friends thought were laughable. since then, he's worked his way up to becoming a deputy, the youngest in town. he enjoys his job, though it helps that the town has always been quiet, which doesn't leave much to do.

there's still a sparkle of mischief in his eyes, but there's no denying that elliot has calmed down a lot since his younger years. he's still always up for a good time, ready to be everyone's best friend... but he's also really looking to make a name for himself as deputy, to prove to everyone that it's something he can do.

WANTED CONNECTIONS:

new & old friends!! especially pals he used to be a dirtbag with as a kid fgdyfud those are friends for life

serious high school ex taken by kennedy

maybe he lives in an apartment above a shop that your muse works at / owns ?? and they get real annoyed when he's playing music to loud or makes the whole building smell like burned food lol

Dread by the Decade: Das Cabinet des Dr. Caligari

👻 You can support me on Ko-fi ❤️

★★★★½

Plot: When a carnival comes to town, its somnambulist begins predicting people's deaths.

Review: Tense, layered, and stylistically gorgeous, this movie's status as a cornerstone of horror cinema is more than deserved.

English Title: The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari Year: 1920 Genre: Psychological Horror Country: Germany Language: Silent Runtime: 1 hour 14 minutes

Director: Robert Wiene Writers: Carl Mayer, Hans Janowitz Cinematographer: Willy Hameister Composer: Giuseppe Becce Cast: Werner Krauss, Conrad Veidt, Friedrich Fehér, Lil Dagover

------

Story: 3/5 - While interesting and unpredictable, it grows somewhat muddled towards the end and falls into ableist tropes.

Performances: 4.5/5 - Krauss plays Dr. Caligari in the most delightfully maniacal way, and Veidt is unsettling as the clairvoyant Cesar.

Cinematography: 5/5 - Eerily beautiful, with unique framing and lighting. There isn't a single shot in this film that isn't striking.

Music: 4/5 - Wonderfully weird.

Sets: 5/5 - From the cityscapes to the carnival, all of the sets are distorted and angular, giving every shot an unsettling, dream-like quality.

Costumes, Hair, & Make-Up: 4/5 - Very solid. Dr. Caligari's outfit and make-up are iconic.

Trigger Warnings:

Mild violence

Ableism against mentally ill people (uncritical)
