Start Again AND ISAT (act 6) spoilers ⬇️ NOT ART i’m just talking to myself

GODDDD when you are confronted when everyone is sus of you and odile is like TELL ME ONE THING THATS BOTHERING YOU RN GO it doesn’t have to be THE thing

i’m just 🥺🥺🥺 at their reaction to sif saying that they’re overwhelmed

the fact that EVERYONE is so willing and wanting to help and talk to Sif but he’s so scared and caught up in his head space to see it as a positive…. it makes me soooooo *grips them tightly* YOU

Loop is soooo sad it makes me crazy they were SO close they were SOOO FAR …. seeing Sif figure (“figure”) it out so much faster, as something they never did is soooo sad.

when they’re yelling at sif and the “glitch” back visually to their own appearance is so. it’s SO!!!! HARD.

there’s a fic that they wake up after talking to Sif and they’re back in their own looped timeline but with. the help that ISAT sif has given them and i DO LIKE THAT I DO but i do also fear with that they might fall into the “well NOW i know the right things to say” attitude 🥲

personally i also rly like loop just. being in this timeline now and taking some time and evaluating before traveling with the party implied w sif and loops parting words,,,, i’m 🥺 at this idea most tho

hey guys did you know i love this game. did you know i am so normal about this game. very normal. super normal. anyways this art is super good I love this so much

i have FINISHED IT - here’s the bathroom break cutscene in the game, start again start again start again: prologue, by @insertdisc5!

basically you’re stuck in an rpg time loop having to pretend nothing’s wrong to your friends, but also #depression mood! also the creator said that it does in fact take place in bathroom stalls so i’m glad i guessed right there 😅

i’m gonna put a link to the game in a reblog because tumblr HATES links >:(

Loop, and the potency of “I asked to be here”

i have been thinking non fucking stop about this game since i played it and i NEEDED to talk about this one damn line. SPOILERS FOR ISAT ACT SIX AND TWOHATS IF YOU HAVE NOT PLAYED THAT PLS DONT READ!!!!!

i thought of this while driving a couple days ago so APOLOGIES if its a little rambly and all over the place but ive genuinely been turning the act 6 fight and just Everything about the game around in my head like a rotisserie chicken for the past couple days.

thinking back on loop after Act 6 has got me really mulling over some of their lines- ESPECIALLY said before I personally figured it out. one of those lines that stuck in my head was when loop says "I asked to be here"

at first i definitely interpreted this as "i saw your situation, and i wanted to help. i asked a higher power/the universe (why theyre a star) and here i am! in return, i am now stuck with you until you get out." loop was playful and kind of carefree, making jokes and poking at siffrin.

and i feel like in some stories this could very well be the case! its apart of the heros journey to have this kind of higher power help the protagonist, and i can definitely imagine a world where something like this happened. Sif wished, and a shooting star saw and wanted to help him.

but thats not what happens in isat. Isat is a game about loss.

and now, looking back after the reveal and the act 6 fight, that line of "i asked to be here" is incredibly potent and hard hitting. instead of it being "i asked to be here" like i originally thought, its "i asked to be here."

its a knife that turns on loop and twists, just gets worse and worse for them. you say "there cannot be any place worse than this", stuck in a timeloop of your own wish, and no matter what you do you cannot leave. so you say "anything will be better than this" and the universe listens and says "really?" and the monkey paw curls.

you asked to be here you say as you watch someone with your face be put in the same predicament. you asked to be here you say as you watch this clone go through the same events you did. you asked to be here you say as you give advice to this doppleganger because youre still stuck. you asked to be here you say as you watch this understudy get out. live the life you were supposed to have.

the universes biggest punchline.

Welp. This happened.

I told everyone that I was doing a Legend of Zelda fanfic and then I discovered the gold mine that is In Stars and Time and now I’m here (Thanks JelloApocalypse!). And I actually felt inspired to write for the first time since finishing Despite It All back in February. 

Yes, I plan on making this full of domestic fluffy shit between characters. I also intend on destroying the reader’s psyche with emotionally psychological warfare. Good luck :)

Fandom: In Stars And Time (Video Game) Rating: Mature

- It's been five years since Siffrin and his family beat the King. They have all since moved on, and living with Isabeau and helping him run his boutique has filled their time happily. Domestic life suites him. But what happens when the past they never spoke of comes back to haunt him? -

- When Loop woke up, they were right back where they started. Or, where they ended specifically. Having been thrown back into their own timeline, they set out to search for a new meaning to live within their second chance after the King won. They're like ninety percent certain the Universe hates them at this point, until they get the idea to try to go back "home". If they even can. -

hey isat heads! do you want nearly 11 hours of siffrin time looping vibes that are depressing, bittersweet, self-deprecating, AND heartbreaking all in one package? OF COURSE YOU DO!!! have fun!!!

[worldlydesiretemple]

i feel like there's a special type of friendship that could be explored between loop and nille post-canon on the party journey ... both new to the party, both unfamiliar with their surroundings and expectations. of course loop already knows the party, knows deep down how it would go, how it all should go, but that does not bode well with people who don't know -- rather, Remember who you are. but loop's never met nille, and nille's never met loop. there's no script for them to follow there. uncharted territory. unfamiliar and new experiences. strangers, even from the beginning!

loop would feel more comfortable being around someone they don't feel grievous pain looking at i think. loop doesn't have bitter memories to associate with nille. and in my humble opinion i think bonnie would gravitate towards loop and hang out with them A Lot, or as much as they possibly can. and y'know that's proooobably a good thing ? nille would probably get along well with someone who also gets along with her little sibling
