VRO I NEED UPDATES ON THE HEAVY RAIN COMIC PLEASSSE it's hard being a surviving heavy rain fan out here,,, I saw my own comrades fall with my own eyes [all posted heavy rain content in 2022 - 2023]

okay so erm.... there are two comics related to heavy rain that i've been (off and on) working on: norman's introduction to tripto (aka him meeting jack, his canonical partner) + ethan and norman post game.

there's some frames missing of norman running late to the FBI presentation on ARI, but here:

as norman surveys the condo, his relationship with both jack and tripto are revealed (when i get around to it....). This was to make up for the lack of DLC as this is based off some of the dev notes/planning.

i've posted a lot more about the other comic, of which has a much less coherent storyline.

mostly just ethan coming to terms with madison's portrayal of his and his son's story, (aka me trying to make sense of madison's motivation considering her ptsd from her time in iraq being completely ignored in the game. hated how maternal david cage made her.... i could write paragraphs).

also, ethan seeking some sort of closure after the ordeal by reaching out to the one person who also stopped at nothing to save his son.... the only other person who can even begin to understand what he went through.

norman convincing himself these conversations are solely for ethan's sake. his work all consuming, every case an excuse to dig that pit of his deeper. he refuses to slow down and give himself a moment to breathe, initially refusing to allow himself this "outlet".

tripto being such a significant factor in norman's past relationship lends itself to hesitancy on his part. i'm leaning towards norman continuing to use ARI but eventually quitting once he realizes he's affecting ethan/shaun in the same way jack was affecting him with his usage:

a fic called "interstate" by machinavellian inspired some aspects, along with an unfinished fic "standing out on the edge before the fall" by onstrangetides.

here are some misc. stuff i don't think i posted.

i've got an entire folder of scribbles that i have to find if you want (like ethan getting a father's day card, etc.).

Verse: Neither Light Nor Dark

Casey was the daughter of a human and a Vahla. As most Vahla, her mother was the nomadic type, never choosing to stay in one place long. For fear of ridicule for having a child with someone outside of her tribe, she chose to abandon Casey and her father while her child was only months old. Like most of her mother’s kind, Casey was born Force sensitive. When her father realized he wasn’t fit to raise the young girl, he decided that the only thing to do was to turn her over to the Jedi council on Coruscant. 

Casey was only four years old when she arrived at the temple of the Jedi, abandoned by her father, she was taken in. Though the council could not deny that she had a link to the Force, they were split on the decision on whether she would eventually train as a padawan. Being half Vahla, some of the council members feared that she would have a natural leaning towards the Dark Side, her people were known to have be allies of the Empire and to have a hatered for the Jedi. Eventually, it was agreed upon that she would learn the ways of the Jedi.

 It wasn’t until just before her thirteenth birthday that Casey was finally matched with a Master. By this time, the girl was jaded, having faced doubt and prejudice from other padawans who had heard the stories of the Ember of Vahl. Stephen decided to take her off world, thinking that a drastic change in scenery would do his padawan good in both her healing and her training. 

While Casey showed an advanced ability using the Force, her saber skills were lacking. Over time, she favored less physical fighting and preferred to take down opponents in more cunning ways. Upon completion of her trials, Casey spent a short time in service as a Jedi Knight before choosing to leave the order after feeling that she still wasn't trusted. Saber: Casey’s lightsaber it a dark purple with a white core. The purple color represents her internal struggle between her pull towards the dark side and her fight to remain in the light. 

Abilities: Casey excelled in Force related tricks, such as Jedi mind tricks, telekinesis, and the ability to use Force Lightning. She was even able to successfully heal wounds using the Force. Though her ability to fight with a lightsaber is lacking, she uses her strong connection to the Force to her advantage. Appearance: Though half human, Casey’s appearance is more Vahla. Her skin is a medium to dark grey, her hair bright white, and her eyes a lavender color. Her body is slender, and flexible, though she is considered short for a Vahla, only standing around 5′6″. Along with having a Valahian physique, she also has the brittle, cartilage like bones.

‘Die a hero’

The way is shut.

To this day there are those who insist that his death was not heroism but overconfidence.  That pride and overwhelming ego drove the man to stay when he should have fled with the others.

The way is shut.

They were not there.   They did not see.   They could not know.   And those who survived did not speak.   Whatever horrors they had witnessed had so scarred the mind that they had shut down in self-preservation.  

It was made by one who is dead.

All that remained to mark the site was a glowing mark that hung in the air; intricate, almost impossibly complex.   It could not be touched, nor felt; it bore no scent, made no sound; the only sign of its existance purely visual.  One could walk clear through it with no effect; it could be obscured but not extinguished.

And the dead one keeps it.

Doctor Stephen Strange was called in to investigate.   After several weeks studying the phenomenon and the surrounding area, he compiled his report and turned it in before returning to his abode in the Astral Realm.  

The way is shut.

To Messiurs Stark, Richards, et al

   You have, by dint of experience, a better grasp than any others of what Victor Von Doom is capable of.  You are, I am sure, suspicious of his demise, given his inevitable returns in the past; including an escape from Hell itself.  I therefore will understand your unwillingness to accept what I relay to you now.

  The man Victor Von Doom is no more.  I cannot and wlll not speculate on the nature of the being?entity?event that manifested across the multiversal reality, save to say that by the sacrifice of Victor Von Doom it has been driven back.   The way is shut, and shall remain hence.   The man Victor Von Doom is no more. 

  The way is shut.   Whatever powers you may believe in gentlemen, thank them.

~ Doctor Stephen Strange, Sorcerer Supreme

Bandages

Your muse walks in on mine in the bathtub. My muse is covered in wounds. Send me “Bandages” for my muses reaction to yours pulling them out of the tub and beginning to bandage their wounds. (x)

He did not realize Stephen would in the bathroom when he stumbled in. It was too late now, to unsee what has been seen. Rather than being bothered by the other man’s bareness, it was the wounds covering most of him that left Wong unsettled. The training was supposed to be difficult, but bruises coloring his ribs, his sides, his forearms... they seemed excessive. And that was before Wong got a good look at his hands. He’d noticed the scarring before, but there were scrapes and bruises on top of old wounds now, and the swelling made it look far worse. The demon must have been out of it too, because he barely seemed to notice Wong’s accidental violation of his privacy. Stephen merely glanced in his direction, and that was all.Silently, Wong went to Stephen’s side and took a cautious yet firm hold of his arm. He was careful not to yank the man as he pulled him up, a hand quickly wrapping around Stephen’s waist to steady him.Wong brought Stephen to the nearby bed and set him down, not particularly concerned about the water. Seeing to those wounds demanded his attention. Those hands were in the direst need. Luckily, their medical kit was far from ordinary. He took out one particular balm from the kit and began applying it to the back of Stephen’s hand in an ancient glyph. “You’re hopeless.” He grumbled, without meaning it. “Completely hopeless.”

STEPHEN IS, BY FAR, THE HARDEST TO MAKE BECAUSE I WANTED TO TRY AND CAPTURE HIS ACTUAL OUTFIT, BUT IT’S SO LIMITED AND JUST---*flops*

But tell me that the idea of Stephen and Wanda working together and being bad ass magic users wouldn’t be hella cool.
