The Doctrine of Perseverance (Re)Announcement
Tumblr media
The Doctrine of Perseverance is an indie horror and mystery game currently in development. It is being developed in RPG Maker MV and includes visual novel elements. A freeware demo was released in 2016. At the time of initial demo release, I was a senior in high school. Since then, I have spent many years developing my art and have returned to my first project. The game is still early in development, so everything is still subject to change, but I still hope you find interest in my project! I'd like to showcase some updated portraits from the 2016 version.
Tumblr media
Melrose, the main character. The story begins on her thirteenth birthday (this portrait not yet shown), where a traumatic house fire takes place. Three years later, on Melrose's sixteenth birthday, the events of the past manifest themselves once again, showing that what happened on that day is far from over.
Tumblr media
Suzetta, a childhood friend of Melrose. A stark contrast to Melrose, she is upbeat, mischievous, and more often than not, the most mature in their friend group. Her father is a close friend of Melrose's mom, Florence.
Tumblr media
Silas is a friend of both Melrose and Suzetta and also Suzetta's neighbor. His family harbors distrust toward Melrose's family and the renowned 'founding families' in the city of Noxton.
For those interested in the previous rendition of the game, @flareblitzedyt has a great playthrough and playlist featuring it on Youtube. Although, I must advice that many story elements have changed since then.
The previous demo was taken down a couple of years ago, but the game page for it is still up. I intend to update it in the future. Thank you for reading, stayed tuned for additional information and screenshots!

Mattheo x Reader - Your parents cut his visit short.
Shaky digits gripped the flimsy trellis tightly as he descended past the verdant foliage. The far end of the home provided only momentary visual obscurity from the approaching engine burning against the gravel driveway. Six feet above the earth, he released his hold, landing firmly before bolting toward the nearby fence dividing one yard from the next.
Gripping the edge of the top tightly and stabilizing himself with his foot at the bottom, he eagerly pulled himself up and swung over to the other side, alerting the leashed canine. The curly-haired brunette picked up speed, narrowly avoiding the snarling animal's teeth by only inches. 'Fuck, fuck, fuck,' he muttered to himself as sweat began to bead on his forehead, aiming for the next fence.
Once over the second fence, he doubled over, out of breath, resting his hands on his knees while dabbing his forehead with the white cotton shirt he had been holding. He glanced back, relieved to see he hadn't been followed, and then straightened himself back up. 
His mind raced with the vision he had left behind. He recalled the way you laid beneath him as his fingers gently cupped your throat. The gooseflesh that rose on your skin as he pressed his lips onto your delicate flesh from your collarbone downward. He remembered the chill that shook you as he whispered future promises into your ear.
He grinned to himself at the thought.
One day, your father was sure to come home and catch the both of you, but fuck, he was glad today wasn't it.

respond to the following prompts out of character, then tag others you'd like to get to know a little bit better.
Tumblr media
roleplayer name: melrose, mel
roleplayer pronouns: she/her
muse name: hara minka ora
preferred communication: discord!!! sumthing about tumblr dms that are so easy to loose track of.
experience: on and off 10+, can't really remember the age i started tbh. middle school prob. started with groups, then discovered 1x1s, then discovered indie. more recent years mainly rped on discord or dash. 2024 has been the most i've written on dash primarily in a long, long time. there was a lot of time during prime pandemic where i only wrote on discord, if i did at all.
preferred roleplay type: sensory descriptive, some nice metaphors, overarching allegories and themes, double entendres, literary visual devices, literary parallelism!!, literary foils. something i like to call echoes: finding something in someone else's reply to echo back in mine or vice versa; whether that's a theme or metaphor or body part or color or whatever; it just kinda ties two characters into one story. example, mirroring the character's feeling in his stomach with my character's wound being on her belly. i consider myself a story-centered rper, so as long as we're creating a lovely story together, i'm happy!
pet peeves & dealbreakers: bisexual erasure, somehow still such an issue in the rpc and media in general. consistent main character syndrome? like, it's fine if certain scenes will have a focus on one character more, obvi. but ultimately, the story should have two lead roles not just one.
plot or memes: memes. with some plotting when needed!
long replies or short replies: fluctuating length. giving a reply what it needs and not pushing yourself for unnecessary filler. i'll always give high quality and that doesn't reflect on the length given. that being said, i can't do or remain in short replies for long. one liners will never stay one liners — they're more like a prompt starter for me.
best time to write: changes, all the time. because of gardening, for awhile it was earlier in the morning. now it's all over the place with a slight lean to night.
are you like your muse?: to smallish degrees, like i think we all are. great authors and actors would agree. ( x )

Foreign Bodies: Pandemics, Vaccines, and the Health of Nations
Author: Simon Schama
First published: 2023
Rating: ★★★☆☆
This is a difficult one to rate. On one hand, the research and language are top-notch, and the story Simon Schama had chosen to tell is extremely interesting. At the same time the book, from its title and synopsis, promises something other (a more or less comprehensive look at pandemics in history and the development of vaccination) than what is eventually given. Instead, the author focuses on several little-known personalities from the medical fields of the 19th/ early 20th century, who saved an incomprehensible number of lives through their discoveries and application of science - yet the world did not thank them. Schama has a talent for telling stories, but more often than not he elaborately explains what could be a footnote, which can be irritating at times. Simply put, there is a great deal to learn from this book, but it is not necessarily the exact lesson that you wanted.
The Marriage Portrait
Author: Maggie O'Farrell
First published: 2022
Rating: ★★★★★
A stunning book that truly feels like a series of paintings. The author, just like she had done it with Hamnet, is capable of creating an extremely sensory experience of capturing a moment in time: it is not just visual but evokes the feelings of touch, smell, and sound. Entrapped in the mind of a young girl, the reader cannot help but follow her at every step with feelings of profound sympathy and worry. Exquisite.
Olga Romanov: Russia's Last Grand Duchess
Author: Patricia Phenix
First published: 1999
Rating: ★★★☆☆
This is one of those books that are rather simplistic in their approach to the subject matter and thus quite easily and quickly readable. It does provide the basics on Olga Alexandrovna and even provides some little-known anecdotes from her life (that I have not yet read anywhere else), but given casual errors and mistakes scattered throughout the text I was a little apprehensive about their validity. Where the book really gives you something new and interesting are the last few chapters, which deal with Olga´s later life and especially behaviour of her sons and other family members. Those parts truly made me sad.
One For My Enemy
Author: Olivie Blake
First published: 2003
Rating: ★★☆☆☆
Once upon a time, for whatever reason (probably because their names sounded cool - and that was also why they were repeated multiple times on every single page), Baba Yaga with her daughters and Koschei the Deathless with his sons ran a drug market in New York. There was some serious hanky-panky between the kids, who would just not stay dead so there is no point in being emotionally invested throughout. And they all talked way too much and it all became extremely, extremely boring. No, seriously, why were these "Russian" people in the US in the first place?
The Little Book of Saints
Author: Various
First published: 2009
Rating: ★★★★★
A lovely collection of vintage pictures of various saints accompanied by short and concise hagiographies. For a non-Catholics a good basic resource on the "saints" part of the Catholic history and a visual study of what our ancestors found appealing to look at. For Catholics, a nice "keep by the bed" or a "Christmas stocking filler" book. For me personally also a souvenir from the Melrose Abbey in Scottland.
The Moonstone
Author: Wilkie Collins
First published: 1868
Rating: ★★★★☆
Probably one of the first (if not the first) "Who Done It" books that I must admit hold up. I very much enjoyed the format, found genuinely amusing places, and did not unravel the mystery myself. that said one should be patient while reading, because the tempo is anything but swift - which I did not mind, since I found being in various heads and meeting the characters intimately, but might grate on the nerves of other readers looking for a thrill instead of a slow unraveling of a secret.
Royal Education: Past, Present and Future
Author: Peter Gordon, Denis Lawton
First published: 1999
Rating: ★★★☆☆
The book introduces the basics about how the English monarchs from the Tudor era to Princes William and Harry were educated, however very little is drawn out as a conclusion of that education. Not bad if you are solely interested in the subject, but if you want to learn more about the monarchs themselves, pick up a biography or two.
Atalanta
Author: Jennifer Saint
First published: 2023
Rating: ★★★★☆
Of the three books by Jennifer Saint, I think I enjoyed this one the most so far. her books are "telling" rather than "re-tellings" of classical Greek myths and Lord knows the Quest of the Golden Fleece had always struck me as an over-long sausage fest (with sausages being mostly rotten), so to see it from the point of view of Atalanta, the only Greek female hero who was allowed to actually hero, was refreshing. On one hand one could decry the fact that Saint sticks to the original story a little too much, not taking the chance to twist the turns and change much more. On the other hand, the same thing could be seen as a positive, and since I found the book very readable and Atalanta´s inner search for herself the main backbone of it all, I can declare myself a satisfied reader.
Cuckoo Song
Author: Frances Hardinge
First published: 2014
Rating: ★★★★☆
I was enticed by the beginning and very curious about how it would all come about, the creepy vibes were present and yet again one is just surprised at how many ideas are born in Frances Hardinge´s head. Unfortunately, I felt the book was a bit too long and the last few chapters made me impatient for the ending.
The Burgundians: A Vanished Empire
Author: Bart Van Loo
First published: 2018
Rating: ★★★★★
Fantastic! Bart Van Loo proudly presents the history of his region, which tends to be overlooked for the sake of "greater" countries and personalities, but as he shows, the Burgundy played an extremely vital role in the historical evolution of European geography and politics for centuries. He skillfully manages to guide the reader through the names, battles and years by doing exactly what a good historian should always do: connect the facts to real people, their culture, and their individual personalities.

...if you look closely at “101 Damnations,” the Melrose Place episode in which Alison miscarries, you might notice something quite odd: There is a reference to abortion in the episode. It’s just visual instead of spoken. Through much of the episode, Alison Parker is draped in a quilt that bears the chemical structure of RU-486, the so-called abortion pill. And that’s not all. Watch enough episodes of Melrose Place and you’ll notice other very odd props and set design all over the show. A pool float in the shape of a sperm about to fertilize an egg. A golf trophy that appears to have testicles. Furniture designed to look like an endangered spotted owl. It turns out all of these objects, and more than 100 others, were designed by an artist collective called the GALA Committee. For three years, as the denizens of the Melrose Place apartment complex loved, lost, and betrayed one another, the GALA Committee smuggled subversive leftist art onto the set, experimenting with the relationship between art, artist, and spectator.

hello fellow cryptcreepers, I guess??? addendum poll for people who remember the year 2000
*Poll choices pulled from GLAAD award winners as a good-faith bid toward OP's "earnest" qualifier. Thank you, Wikipedia editors, but also bad job, Wikipedia editors, for not having anything on GLAAD's now-defunct daytime soap category. Why did One Life to Live win the drama category in the early 90s?? Edit: Billy Douglas, the first openly gay teenager featured in a television series (and guest star the AIDS quilt, which I am more impressed by)! Also lol, they've won it 3 times for 3 different coming out stories.

Creating an Efficient Workspace with Call Center Cubicles in Melrose Park
In todayÕs fast-paced business environment, the design and functionality of office spaces have become crucial for boosting productivity and employee satisfaction. For businesses in West Chicago, investing in Call Center Cubicles West Chicago and Office Furniture West Chicago can make a significant difference in achieving these goals. This blog will explore the benefits of these essential office elements and how they can transform your workspace.
Why Call Center Cubicles Matter
Call centers are the backbone of many customer service operations. They require a setup that maximizes efficiency while providing a comfortable environment for employees. Call Center Cubicles West Chicago are designed to meet these specific needs. Here are some reasons why they are essential:
Privacy and Focus: Call center agents often handle sensitive information and need to concentrate without distractions. Cubicles provide the necessary privacy, helping employees stay focused on their tasks.
Noise Reduction: A well-designed cubicle can significantly reduce ambient noise, which is crucial in a call center environment where multiple conversations happen simultaneously.
Efficient Use of Space: Cubicles are a practical solution for maximizing office space. They allow for a structured layout that can accommodate a large number of employees without feeling cramped.
Personal Space: Despite the communal nature of call centers, itÕs important for employees to have their own space. Cubicles offer a personal area where they can keep their belongings and personalize their workstations.
Choosing the Right Call Center Cubicles
When selecting Call Center Cubicles West Chicago, consider the following factors:
Size and Configuration: Depending on the size of your call center, you can choose from various cubicle sizes and configurations. Some designs are more open, while others provide more enclosure for privacy.
Materials and Durability: High-quality materials ensure longevity and durability. Look for cubicles made from robust materials that can withstand daily wear and tear.
Ergonomics: Ergonomically designed cubicles can prevent workplace injuries and enhance employee comfort. Adjustable desks and chairs, proper lighting, and sufficient ventilation are essential features.
Aesthetics: The visual appeal of your office space can affect employee morale. Choose cubicles that match your companyÕs branding and create a pleasant work environment.
The Importance of Office Furniture
In addition to cubicles, investing in quality Office Furniture West Chicago is crucial for creating a functional and appealing workspace. Office furniture includes desks, chairs, storage solutions, and more. HereÕs why it matters:
Employee Comfort: Ergonomic office furniture can prevent health issues such as back pain and carpal tunnel syndrome. Comfortable employees are more productive and less likely to take sick leave.
Productivity: Properly designed office furniture can enhance productivity by providing an organized and efficient workspace. Features like adjustable desks and ample storage can make daily tasks easier.
Professional Image: High-quality office furniture contributes to a professional appearance, which can impress clients and visitors. A well-furnished office reflects well on the companyÕs reputation.
Flexibility: Modern office furniture is often modular and can be reconfigured as needed. This flexibility is essential for growing businesses that may need to adapt their office layout over time.
Selecting Office Furniture in West Chicago
When looking for Office Furniture West Chicago, consider these tips:
Ergonomics First: Prioritize ergonomic features in chairs, desks, and other office furniture. Adjustable height desks, lumbar support chairs, and proper lighting are key components.
Quality and Durability: Invest in high-quality furniture that will last. While the initial cost may be higher, durable furniture reduces long-term replacement costs.
Aesthetic Appeal: Choose furniture that complements your office decor and creates a cohesive look. Consistent design elements can make the space more inviting and professional.
Functionality: Consider the specific needs of your employees and the type of work they do. For example, storage solutions for files, comfortable seating for long hours, and collaborative spaces for team meetings are important.
Budget: While itÕs important to invest in quality, itÕs also crucial to stick to your budget. Look for suppliers in West Chicago that offer a good balance of quality and affordability.
Transforming Your Workspace
Combining Call Center Cubicles West Chicago with high-quality Office Furniture West Chicago can transform your office into a productive and pleasant place to work. Here are some steps to achieve this transformation:
Assess Your Needs: Conduct a thorough assessment of your office space and identify the specific needs of your business and employees.
Plan the Layout: Create a detailed floor plan that includes the arrangement of cubicles and other office furniture. Consider factors like workflow, collaboration areas, and individual workspaces.
Choose the Right Supplier: Partner with a reputable supplier in West Chicago who can provide a range of options and help you make informed decisions.
Involve Your Employees: Get input from your employees on their preferences and needs. Involving them in the process can lead to better satisfaction and productivity.
Implement and Adjust: Once the new furniture and cubicles are in place, monitor their impact on productivity and comfort. Be open to making adjustments as needed to optimize the workspace.
Conclusion
Investing in Call Center Cubicles West Chicago and Office Furniture West Chicago is a strategic move that can enhance productivity, employee satisfaction, and the overall professionalism of your office. By choosing the right elements and thoughtfully planning your office layout, you can create a workspace that meets the needs of your business and supports the well-being of your employees.
