[sleepyminty]

It so weird looking at damien’s group members silhouettes cuz so far we know Rim and Sanson are the part of his group, but none of their appearances match with what’s in the promo

When can we meet the others pm

[tfh-arts]

Smh the Aqueermarine Assembly at it again

[zen17hdee]

! Canto 7 spoilers !

As soon as I saw Sanson I guessed that he’s part of Demian’s mysterious blue people crew

And then I saw someone posted Sanson’s profile image

He’s got that same bisexual background as the other two blue dudes we’ve met

Why is Dongrang the only member of the League with a weird fantasy hair color while everyone else has normal colors actually. What is his fucking problem

On the note of pacific rim sinners. Here are the pairings. I've yet to come up with any jaeger names cuz that's hard.

Don + Sinclair (siblings are always drift compatible)

Ishmael + Heathcliff (see: canto 5)

Meursault + Rodion (both canonical murderers also tall?)

Yisang + Faust (geniuses)

Outis + Gregor (veterans)

Hong lu + ryoshu (leftovers, but I could see it working)

Dante can be their ground operator radio guy or something. Same goes for Charon and Verg.

Drawings coming when I can

(CANTO 5 - PART 2/3 SPOILERS)

I think I have a bit of an idea of who Rim is

[minnowoooo]

I like this weird orb

Hey, Demian!

Got a question for you about one of your compatriots, Lim? I think their name was? Have you ever tried to sneak a fish into their fishbowl head?

~ Mist

The liquid in his head isn’t pure water. His fishbowl acts very similar to a prosthetic, and because it is clear you can see his brain inside it. As such, the liquid is some sort of mixture of water and cerebrospinal fluid like substance that I’m not sure would be good for a fish.

// this one’s very important to me because my dad has a condition called hydrocephalus where his body has too much cerebrospinal fluid putting pressure on his brain. I think if his head was a fish bowl that mixed his CSF with water to thin it out, maybe he wouldn’t have the negative symptoms affect him so much.

propaganda for faust

Rim and Sanson final super mega ultimate awakened forms (based off the silhouettes in Demian's trailer scene)

Plus a little unmasked Sanson idea because damn if we don't get to see what's underneath all that

[evorathesylvurr]

Look, that was something that the game decided on. They flirted, got together, and got married before they broke up, which I feel like. I should just let that one happen.

I tend to let sinner/sinner and colonist/colonist happen and I only soft reset when I get a sinner/colonist relationship that makes me die inside (like Ryoshu romancing the colonist who was teen mom when the save started)

yi sang is on the constant verge of a mental breakdown.

wearing pants might solve his problems.

Theory: Why only some people understand Dante

aka The Little Prince metaphors haunts me yet again

Idk how credible this is but I just had a realisation in my Limbus server so I'm going to share.

This theory jumps off from some great points made by @lu-is-not-ok in this post about Sonya about how the two Team Fortress teams major factions we see in Limbus embody "seeing with the eyes" (Hermann's group) vs "seeing with the heart" (Demian's group).

And it makes sense, Hermann's group is full of scientists trying to crack the universe through experimentation while Demian's group seems to just want things to exist.

And Limbus Company is not subtle about the Little Prince metaphors, Demian quotes the book every time he has his cameos at the end of the cantos.

And then I got decked with the realisation of just how much the voice of the heart is a theme here. Demian is the Little Prince, and he understands more than anyone that the truth can only be perceived with the heart.

There's an entire metaphor in the book of the snake eating a boa, and how the "rational adults", the people who only perceive with eyes and accept logic and science as the sole truth, are blind to the truth of the drawing.

This is, I feel, how Dante's speech works - people who do not have a connection to them, who do not look past their clockhead, can only hear ticking noises.

Demian already has a pre-existing connection with Dante (putting them in the role of the POV character in the book, the Pilot) so he can easily do that. Hell, maybe Rim can as well, it's not like during the conversation in U Corp's Lobcorp branch he remarks on the ticking noises.

And the sinners?

Take a look at how Dante connects to them.

They're connected through the heart.

And the same can be said of Dante being able to explore the fathoms of their heart to discover their truths. They have an understanding that simply could not be formed by merely looking at each other how they appear physically.

What is essential is invisible to the eye.

So ye!

When I saw Rim, I thought "there's no way I'm NOT editing YB into this"

Background - Limbus Company, Canto 5, Ep 26

YBs face is from @y0urb0yfriend

[drmobiusvanch]

so yi sang isn't my blorbo but this is driving me crazy SO

Deep dive into this picture!!!!

Okay, first off. We can see that this is an edit of the picture of the League from Chapter 4.

The word 'edit' is chosen specifically. At first, it looks like the picture was just defaced, but Ring Yi Sang is an abstract painter and there's a lot of changes outside of what you might think. A lot of silhouettes are distorted wildly, especially including the two mysteries in the back left, and strangely Aseah.

Of the three faceless characters, I have no idea which one might be Rim. I'm GUESSING he's probably not the femme-y tall one, but who knows.

Also, Dongbaek has these swatches of white on her face, which no one else does.

They look vaguely similar to the 'feathers' on Yi Sang's painting of his wings.

But since we're talking about faces, let's inventory it, shall we?

Of the three unknowns, two are frowning while the one in the foreground next to Dongbaek is smiling. The frowning faces are heavily distorted as well. The face of the one on the right looks to be 'melting', heavily lopsided compared to the other faces, while the one on the left has their eyes de-emphasized, drawn smaller and darker than the others unless one of them is missing?

Very abstract, so it's hard to tell, but if you consider Dongbaek and front guy basic faces, you can see that these two are distorted in a way Dongbaek isn't.

Yi Sang's face here is very interesting. First off, he appears to have given himself a hat, but more importantly his face is drawn dramatically differently from every other face in the picture. Even the relatively un-distorted ones are childish smiley faces, while Yi Sang has a 'normal' face in silhouette. He's effectively saying that he is important, human, but the rest of the League are just shadows of the past.

As you can see, just about everyone in the back row has their heads distorted somehow. I have no idea what this means.

Gubo and Dongrang's faces, meanwhile, are really strange, even compared to the face of the person next to Dongbaek. They're both drawn with smiles, but the smiles are distorted even more than the lopsided frown in the background. Gubo's smile reaches entirely across his face, while Dongrang's is almost a 'V', with the corners of his mouth drawn up to be level with his eyes.

Young-ji is completely free of any graffiti, as well as any distortion.

(Aseah will be explained later.)

But what do the faces MEAN? Simply going off the ones we know, Gubo, Dongbaek, and Dongrang-even more when we consider the vague information we have on the fate of the others and compare that with the faceless ones, we have a pattern.

Yi Sang is smiling, fitting with his joining the Ring later.

Dongrang and Gubo, both of whom sold out to Wings, are smiling. Dongbaek, who was injured and had a breakdown after the fall of the League, is frowning.

For the faceless ones, Rim is one of them, another sold out to work with T Corp, and I can't remember who/what the third one was. Two frowning faces, one smiling. From the rest of this, it seems reasonable to extrapolate that the T Corp defector is the smiling man in front, and since Rim isn't notably tall, it seems very likely Rim is the shorter man in the back with his face 'melting', or in the regular picture, this guy:

But then there's Aseah. Aseah is one of the most interesting parts of this picture. We can't see his mouth, but it's not a choice on Yi Sang's part to obscure Aseah's face-it's a choice on nai_ga's. His face is blocked by the handle of Yi Sang's weapon. Why?

Aseah first appears in Leviathan as a captive of the Ring. When we see him in Limbus, he's an associate of N Corp and in charge of the Ring. Regardless of which, the fact that Yi Sang is a member of the Ring as well as a friend of Aseah's would make him an authority on Aseah's emotional state, as well as what happened to him. We don't know much about Aseah, who is something of a cipher. Whether he drew him with a frown or a smile could have meant a lot about what the circumstances around him are.

Also, interestingly, his face seems to be less distorted, like Yi Sang's. If his face was as distorted as Dongrang or Gubo's, it would be immediately apparent where his mouth was-even a more simply drawn mouth would probably reach up or down into the cheeks outside of the paintbrush handle.

Finally, as a side note, comparing the expressions with the original picture:

In the original picture, far-left, tall one, and Possibly Rim are all smiling. Yi Sang and Dongbaek have small smiles-Yi Sang appears much happier in his drawing than in the original picture, as Ring Yi Sang probably considers himself to be now. Aseah seems expressionless. Gubo is frowning slightly. Dongrang looks visibly uncomfortable, which is particularly interesting considering how he's drawn in Yi Sang's version. Considering our Yi Sang might have harbored a grudge against Dongrang, this one might too.

Regardless-it's very interesting that someone so focused on denying the past and putting it behind him would not simply deface the picture, but put effort into that defacement by giving them different expressions.
