[behind the scenes Isolde]

In her newest performance costume, Isolde enjoys a quiet tea with Miss Kakania.

(This is for the reverse 1999 fanart contest 😭✌️)

The last panel of each strip for their Arcanist in a Nutshell comics? Isolde seeing Kakania in the vulnerable moments in her Small Room, and Kakania (an aspiring psychiatrist) seeing Isolde (her last patient and the one who changed everything) during work. Both in front of a mirror, Kakania in clear and content weather as Isolde basks in light. (They both hope for the others presence in a way. Isolde wants to be with Kakania again who she sees as light, and Kakania wants clear weather with NO more rain and content skies with Isolde.) Kakania’s table has lost its light, but it’s completely straight. While Isolde’s table is full of life, but her table is tilted (Notice how when you put them together, Kakania is covering up the way it’s tilted). Tea party etiquette dictates that the pot’s spout is pointed towards the person who last poured the tea. Each of their tables are prepared for a guest.

Welcome to another insane post, it’s time to make several of my interests kiss and hold hands.

If Raoul and Christine were religious then the entire story of poto would’ve happened similarly to the way a lot of people say they’d react today. Like the public idea of scars and what a true sign of the devil is is FAR different than what it was. The problem she has with the Phantom is the murder thing yeah, but another huge part of it is his looks at the end of the day and the entire story has a lot of massive themes towards the importance of what religion does to your mind and outlook on life. She also grapples a bit with sympathy for the phantom despite in the end deciding that she can no longer feel pity for someone who’s made the conscious decision to hurt the world in the same way they’ve been. A difference to Curly but that’s also because the genres are different, and Curly is from a total death type of series.

I have too many Curly posts to wanna rehash my thoughts.

Kakania has a position of Isolde’s therapist and from that standard, like Curly, she has responsibility in her own victimization. She’s Isolde’s therapist and actively left her unchecked out of trust for her and the idea that “oh I don’t visibly see Isolde breaking down, she’s nothing like other hysterical patients I see. The rumors of the Dittarsdorfs are all exaggerated after the tragedy with her mother. People simply love to gossip.” Kakania is like Curly in the way that their actions and support of a person have directly hurt them and others due to their blind trust in said person. Isolde is NOTHING like Jimmy but man… Kakania girl what were you thinking. Actually she’s not certified, she WASNT thinking. The oversight and ignorance both of them show towards their immediate circle when they DO show warning signs is an important theme to them. They’re both very good people with good hearts, but ignorance is a sin that can hurt others, and they’re feeling the results of that.

On Isolde and Many Doors (and One Key)

Thinking about Isolde and how she feels like she is constantly trapped in a small cramped room full of 1 million doors. Each door represents a presence that haunts her, an identity that lives inside her that calls to her from beyond the grave, a new mask to dawn.

If every person in the world were to have a room, most would have just one door, their own. But not Isolde.

Isolde feels like an empty vessel who is only there to serve as a point of entry for other people and their spirits. She has been forced to become so repressed by her environment, upbringing, and her nature as a medium that she finds it easy to forget herself. Her “self” is not someone she has ever been allowed to know.

The room grows increasingly smaller, claustrophobic and strangling her with pressure as the amount of doorways in it only increase, every new person she meets a new doorway she is plagued with, a new voyeur who has granted themselves full access to her life and her body. Something she is now willing to let them do. It is easier that way. Easier to let someone else command her vessel, something that never solely belonged to her to begin with. An escape from all the pressure, the expectations, the perfection demanded from her. It is something she should do. The duty of someone like her. Something to hide her wretched face from view, to give the people what they want, to uphold her family’s legacy. A performance that was never allowed to end. Each new door lead right back to that.

The only exception is Kakania. The only person Isolde believes has ever really seen her as more than a host for other identities or something to mold into shape, prop up as a set piece. A perfect lady. The star of Vienna. A tragic heroine. A dangerous hysteric witch. A curse manifested. The only one who was ever interested in finding Isolde’s door and that door alone. When she is with Kakania, a new door does not appear in that ever shrinking empty room, although at first she expects it to. For the first time she meets someone and is not greeted with a new ghost to haunt her. Not a door. But a key. A key that Isolde knows can unlock her own door, even when she herself cannot find it.
