some rather strong first impressions were made.
required reading for the magical "voice" headcanon and another for starstruck's signature in particular. asked by @trainerbob23 !
#did i need to do a 9 page comic for this... well who knows. i had this scene in mind for a long time and wanted to do it justice!#important moment for both of them. you can see starstruck just generating the bandee shaped mental illness in real time.#and bandee resolving to be her point of contact with waddle dees if the others can't handle it#he is after all; the strongest and the bravest and the best of them.#“what is this signature like” it's like meeting something that has a human face but you can tell it is Not Human. think: uncanny valley#it also took her quite some time to pick up her own voice. she could not speak (popstarian) on her own for a while#she does not mimic anymore though if she can help it because it tends to weird others out and she wants to avoid that!!#it's not like a fun or enjoyable impersonation; it's like a perfect recording on a device.#also i guess this is *finally* the reveal of the 'hospital' mentioned previously that folks noticed and also like... her name 😂#anyway.... thank you to everyone who voted for starstruck in that poll and has encouraged this insane self indulgence... wow.#never thought i'd get to draw stuff like this and have others look forward to it. i really hope you'll enjoy this!!!#my art#my comics#starstruck dee#bandana waddle dee

Oh boy, I sure can't wait for Intervallo 7.5, where the bus goes on yet another wacky roadtrip while the gang goes to Hong Lu's home district and learn about his extremely complex family dynamic and the many many references to the original novel, it's multiple remakes, and/or the series adaptation.
The next Walpurgis is most likely the Safety Team with Netzach as the next Announcer; and the next LobCorp IDs might connect to Abnormalities of denial, blissful ignorance, or the constricting force of family (Queen of Hatred, Queen Bee, Void Dream).
Even if the Sinners adjust to the fact that one of their members is a Second Kindred Bloodfiend, everyone keeps eyeing Outis just in case she tries to kill Don mentally or physically. She's still salty about the "betrayal" of having a definite threat in their ranks and were possibly waiting to backstab them at any moment (...Did something happen with Eurylochus, Outis?).
And even if she's also adjusting to a modernish life without the fanatic belief in Fixers, Don Sancho Quixote the Second reads them the riot act on their multiple attempts to prove she's a "real vampire" and committing elder abuse: shining light in her eyes or putting her in direct sunlight, putting garlic in her food, Dead Butterfly's coffin and Hundred Sins cross mace in her face cause Christian symbol or possible vamp bed, chasing her with a water bottle or spray bottle, so much water, so much water...
#limbus company#limbus company spoilers#limbus company canto 7#limbus company canto 7 spoilers#limbus company don quixote#limbus company sancho#long tags#text shitpost#So how's everyone doing with the finale? Rose Hunter has been kicking my butt since day 1 :')#Other than that I'm all for calling DonQui 2.0 as Don Sancho cause it has a nice ring to me#Ultimately taking her “dad's” name as the real Fixer and a memorial is really sweet but I'll see if new development on Sancho's side too#...By that I mean the Sinners pushing all her buttons to debunk every vampire myth there is#She could still be squeamish about water but if they ever mention the Lake she might burst into flames#The Bloodfiend fam announcers did mention how they're not afraid of garlic but what about everything else?#Dante *might* try to connect more with Don Sancho even when she's still acting as DonQui but who knows#Depends on how the next Intervallo goes but I'm also here for Jia “Hong Lu” Baoyu to take the stage too

"I've never been wanted anywhere" "all I want is to be cherished, and here I am talking gibberish with a selfish man." "you can't come home with me"
#i know her‚ i know her! that is my close personal confidant her name is 'not having formed a tight-knit bond with a friend since childhood.#growing up‚ being put in situations where you could finally have the chance to maybe actually make a meaningful connection like that again#and then realizing that you have hyped this all up in your mind too much. that perhaps you have imagined this scenario so many times#that it has become a fairytale and real life is not like that. that there will be a lot of people who are dull or misalign with you.#but then you do find someone you click with and you already start imagining the great lifelong friendship you will have#& then you find out or you realize that they are not as excited to be friends as you are.#to them you are just acquaintances and that is all it will ever be.'#she goes by 'late diagnosed autism' for short.#she speaks#the haunting of hill house

kinda cool how in season one eleven escapes the lab thinking she's the monster & in season four eleven escapes the lab again knowing she never was and that none of what happened was ever her fault.
and how in season two she goes on a journey to figure out part of her past and is told by another of the lab's victims that she needs to find strength in pain and anger & in season four we saw that it was her mother calling her by her real, human name and telling her that she loved her that gave her enough strength to overpower evil and banish it from their dimension, not the hurt and rage she felt at her being taken away. and that again, she was able to perform a miracle and bring her friend back to life by thinking of the love she showed her and the way she had always treated her like she was a human being.
she and her story are just really cool, methinks.
#being selflessly loved and treated like a human being what gives characters who have never once been shown that before without having to#give something back in return the strength to fight back and reach their final form is something that can be so personal#like. why am i crying in the club right now#terry called her JANE not a number but a NAME a real HUMAN name and told her she loved her!#and max treated her like a PERSON like a GIRL not a weapon or a superhero and she never asked eleven to do anything for her#she just loved her and treated her like a normal girl like a normal friend#and it was THAT which gave eleven the most strength#eleven who has always had to give in order to get eleven who gets punished whenever she steps outside of the box people put her in#eleven who didn't know that people could LIKE things until season three eleven who had never felt like a girl until season 3#eleven who finds her strength to release herself from henry's vines when she looks at max and remembers tht she has to fight#for her the same way that max fought for her then bc she loves her she loves her friend so much#eleven who looks at a man who has never been treated like a person and in her last moments thinks of her mother and the fact that#she was loved and she was given a name that she is still a person despite everything that there is still kindness in this world and#THAT is what gives her the strength to save herself and literally unmake him and tear a fucking hole in time and space like.#are you kidding me bro how do u expect me to realize all of that and NOT cry like 😭#the power of love... and being treated like a human being... to be seen and understood... there is always a light to be found in the dark#i'm . someone sedate me please for the love of god SEDATE ME PUT ME DOWN SHOOT A HORSE TRANQUILIZER AT MY ASS PELA SE

tav shri’iia is THE canon for me obvi but I also really like the idea of tav wren with yves still being part of the dead three as bhaal’s chosen. the thing with wren is that he was yves’ childhood friend who was pursuing his bard career and severely flopping. one night when he was supposed to escort yves home from the graveyard he chose to perform in some tavern instead, and that night is when the bhaalists came and killed her. for him, one of his closest friends just went missing the night he was supposed to look after her, and when she returns 2 weeks later all beaten up and bloody with no memory of herself ofc he felt guilty….! and he couldn’t even bear to look at her because it’s all his fault u know … if only he didn’t ditched her maybe this wouldn’t have happened so one night he just decides to leave bc he couldn’t take it anymore. it’s always been his dream to be a travelling bard anyway and maybe his career will pick up in some other city than baldur’s gate, so he leaves her and his home and sets out to salvage what he can of his career. and in the most part he was mildly successful. he also ends up making a pact with some fae and they help with his bard career too lol but the guilt of yves is still in his mind- he just got better at ignoring it.
SO. imagine his surprise when he gets tadpoled and goes to moonrise to find a cure and he sees his friend - the girl that’s been haunting his dreams and the source of his guilt and shame - a part of the evil cult that’s been enslaving people with parasites. and now he’s meant to kill her? but how could he when he’s the one who left her behind and maybe it’s his fault that she turned out like this … but anyway I love the idea of wren being like noooo that’s NOT yves she would never do that!! and they’re just like girl ur delusional ur friend is literally chopping people up forcing us to find the parts like some treasure hunt
#but durge era yves is so similar to glados to me where she is so mild about everything and instead of forcing you to test#she forces you to figure out the murder mysteries around the lower city and present ur case in the murder tribunal#like as she says. the only thing better than murder is getting away with it and what’s more fun than to watch someone figure out the puzzle#you set for them u kno 🤭🤭#and her proposition to ally w her is that she wants u to figure out the whole absolute ploy and how it started and what role she plays#and the only way to get those answers is to break in gortash’s place which betrays his trust … so it’s like a fun whodunit for her..!!#also i think wren finds out what actually happens to her that night .. learning that his real friend died and got replaced with this other o#other one who’s essentially just wearing her skin … reconciling with the truth that if he was with her she would’ve lived … killing this#yves for his friend so she can have some peace finally .. etc etc. it’s really about ween#wren*s survivor’s guilt bc I like to imagine they had another friend who he left with to look after yves#and when he finally returned after how many years he learns that friend has been dead (bc yves killed him) and allegedly yves’ mental#health went downhill when their friend died so she had to be sent away#which in truth she just left for the bhaal temple lol#anyway just thinking abt this three.. def wanna do a wren playthrough one day ..!!#also their other friend’s name is pan (full name xaphan) and they’re a tiefling but idk abt their appearance yet#making them a tiefling so yves’ first kill post lobotomy links back to her og friends where - if#it’s alfira she’s a bard like wren and tiefling like pan … but honestly pan could be Dragonborn too if she ends up killing quill lol#shut up about bg3.#bg3

Elgaladwen
Father name: Silmëhareth / Elgaladwen
Mother name: Lúrëalassë / Gwaewlass
Epesse: Dailalph (Given by Gallorith)
(Prefers to go by the Sindarin version of her name)
Stats:
Born in SA 3401; Begetting, December 19
Birthplace: Imladris
Race: Noldor
Occupation: Healer (formerly one of many in Elrond's house), Herbalist
Gender: Female
Sexuality: Heterosexual
Married to Gallorith of Lothlórien (played by @sewer-princess)
Looks:
Deep black wavy hair, currently falls to her chest, but it has been both longer and shorter over the years
Very pale skin, except for her pink cheeks
Takes pains to keep her skin unblemished, so she has had no visible scars, up until recent RP, in which she now has fresh fingernail gouges down both her cheeks, which are scabbing over
Pale green eyes
Tends to wear ornate gowns and jewelry, unless more practical clothing is needed. She sometimes wears cosmetics such as kohl eyeliner, or a berry stain upon her lips
Artwork: Here, by @loremastering, here by @angbands-last-hero, here with Gallorith by @nozomi-mats, and here and here by myself. (nudity warning on the last one)
Smell:
Lavender, sage, amber, myrrh
Sound:
Voice is on the deeper side of feminine, rich, smooth
Tends to speak slowly and deliberately, rather than hastily, even when excited or angered
Speaks many languages fluently, though her dialect may differ from what is common in some areas
Playlist here
General:
Generally good at hiding her emotions behind polite masks, though she lets her true feelings show more often when among friends
Is not a pacifist like her husband, and has no qualms with hurting those who have hurt people she loves, though she prefers mending, healing, and talking more than fighting
Holds grudges, but hides it well
Eats no meat, and hasn't most of her life. Prefers not to harm animals, but will for survival
Was raised to exude courtly decorum, and still tends to act in such a way in public
Favorite color is crimson, though she also enjoys deep blue, and any colors that are found in her beloved's garden
Lived in Imladris all her life, until moving to Lothlórien to be with Gallorith
Has traveled much, and still does on occasion, but now with Gallorith
Her parents were very proud Noldor elves, despite her grandparents probably being involved in the first kinslaying
They tried to arrange many marriages for her, always with others they considered of good lineage, but she refused them all and said she would never marry
She isn't particularly proud of her heritage herself, though it is more out of indifference than shame
She did end up marrying Gallorith, a Silvan elf, whom her parents would have likely found unsuitable- Or perhaps they'd have just been happy she was finally settling down. Either way, they sailed many years before she met him
She loves Gallorith more than all else in the world, and was surprised to feel such a way, always having thought tales of love and romance were greatly exaggerated
Has no family she's met left in Middle-earth, but does have distant cousins she doesn't know
Can read and write more languages than she can speak
Enjoys making dyes, perfumes, and other frivolous things, when not crafting tinctures and potions for healing
Heals using both the innate power that many of her people have, which seems like magic to many men, and by using practical methods, often combining the two to urge a patient's body to respond faster to herbs or medicine
Has studied anatomy extensively, mostly in elves, but a little in humans too
Enjoys learning and reading in general, so she knows much of history and general knowledge as presented in books, but healing, herbalism, and to a lesser extent, languages, are her main areas of study
Has trained with sword and staff, mainly to be able to defend herself should she be a battlefield medic, she is good with neither, though, and has little control over elements she is not directly using for healing
Generally lived a sheltered, happy life, up until recent events
Relationships with other characters can be seen here.
Background, history, and RP can be seen here.
#Finally I am posting another character bio!#the ones after this should be less crazy since I have my two mains out of the way#the LOTRO version of this character has been deleted and remade a million times#though I obviously use this name all over the place and it's my default when creating a character#Thanks to @sewer-princess and all our RP this version is now the best most real one and is as she is meant to be!#Now I can start spamming you with all the fics right?#lotro#lotro oc#lotro rp#elgaladwen#lotro bio

#awhile ago when I introduced euna I talked about my plan for a band#made of powerful demons each chosen by a prince as sort of a thing they could all have#euna carys and alora have been around for awhile everyone else has been a wip for a long while#I finalized the rest of them like a few days before the newest episode of helluva boss came out#because I remember going like ‘oh…I guess I should edit kauri a bit and add green to her’ when I saw mammon#these guys have names that reflect their sins of origin#the only one not obvious is kauri who I had a reason for but I couldn’t find it on my discord chat with my friends so I just left it#I either misread the meaning of anasuya or thought it was funny because she’s envy#you can tell the rest kauri is greed carys and raivo are he/him the rest are she/her pronouns!#trying real hard not to run out of tags just saying their all based on the base idea of their prince naaz is a ringmaster after lucifer etc#hazbin hotel#helluva boss#fan characters#naaz#carys#euna#anasuya#raivo#alora#kauri

puts my head in my hands
im so so so sure ishmael is actually captain ahab
#theres a final piece of the puzzle that im not getting and its WHY ahab would take ishmael's name but#im so sure im so sure im so sure#the fact that snagharpoon has her tied to the harpoon she throws#the fact that her keyword is hearse and that's part of ahab's final speech#and in that sense she is the 'hearse' that carries the body#my theory is that she's captain ahab that lost her crew and becomes ishmael to carry on that memory but in spite of - or because of - that#and cannot give up her revenge against that whale even more now#and refers to her former self as a madwoman#the thirst manifesto#anyway also the fact that they can play on the phrase 'call me ishmael'#as in that is not your real name CAPTAIN AHAB

Tell me about fixed point my friend. In return I offer a monologue from one if my stage scripts, Matthew's Marvelous and Mystifying Magic Act (ironically preceding my knowledge of magic goes wrong)
Matt Thank you, to those of you who have stuck around to see the latter half of the production. We’ve had a few minor hiccups, but the show must go on, as I have to fulfil a contractual obligation to our sponsor: Wowzafresh cleaning products; scrub away your past with the all new ultra deluxe exfoliator, not safe for human use. Anyways, it seems my parents have still not arrived, though upon checking my email I’ve found that in response to the tickets I sent my mother she has sent back a link to a two year course in Accounting. Perhaps she is hoping I will one day take after my younger sister, a rather successful paralegal, in having a career she can tell her book club about and not receive condolences in return. Still, as a brief note the rabbit has been captured and safely returned to its cage and Sasha and I will be arranging a carpool after the performance to get rabies shots. I would highly encourage any of you who may have come into contact with it to do the same. Now, back to the magic!
(He is visibly startled by the smoke bomb this time, not managing to exit before it dissipates. Instead he just waits for Sasha to open the curtain.)
man i'm starting to think that you didn't find the goes wrong franchise... the goes wrong franchise found you
as a (fictional) scientific concept, the fixed point theory is a maxim of time travel that suggests that the progression of events is relatively immutable - summed up in the phrase anything that has happened will happen, and anything that will happen has happened. mainly, if a person goes back in time to do anything, whatever they do will ultimately contribute to the version of the "future" they know. vanessa speaks to this rather confusingly in the first chapter: "if she went back and time and killed her grandfather, she wouldn't cease to exist because her grandfather wasn't actually her grandfather, and this was how time was and he would always die like that. or something."
specific events are known as Fixed Points - moments in time that everything surrounds, like nails in a string, things that Cannot Be Changed, even as little bits and pieces shift and twist. most of what we know as history consists of fixed events. the shattering of the cornely drama society is also a fixed point.
this reminds us, as time travelers, that despite the freedom and adventure that comes with it, all our choices still have lasting effects - you can't go back and change it once it's happened. as a bonus, it means that the cpds didn't fuck anything up when they went to the seventies 😁
(also, it's just very important to the plot.)
thanks for the ask you're the best!!!
#ttau ask#long post#?#process update as of now:#currently working on chapter 9 which is probably chapter 10 at this point#(chapter alone has breached 10k and i might split it in two)#from chapter 1 to now is about 58k#everything i have written so far is about 70k#and 140 pages on my word doc#there are two (/three) chapters in which the pov character is mostly called by a different name#one name is arbitrary and one is Totally Not A Reference To A Real Person#in the chapter after this one we finally start to see the cast finding each other on purpose#also more patty content.#and following the theme from ex-home i must announce that there are 106 fucks so far#but since zeph only shows up once so far she's only responsible for 4 of them

Burning hill but it's my relationship to my passions and burn out
#mitski#i love taking 'you' and 'him' in mitski songs as personified versions of concepts and experiences in her life#happy is personification of joy#burning hill (as i interpreted) is about her passion for music and also disassociation (im watching myself burn but i cant stop or step in)#remember my name is lonliness despite bearing your soul and the discrepancy btwn being a celebrity and a human#pearl diver is reaching within to find a 'pearl.' for something more. but in doing so youre straining and hurting yourself for it#shouldve been me (to me) is masking and realizing you gave people a version of you but they want to see the real you#afraid to be truly vulnerable without an ironic front is a challenge and the regret that comes from it#i think it's interesting she mainly ever addreses 'you' 'him' and 'me' and to have that third person be a man in a relationship with her#fireworks is literally depression when youre at the lowest point but youre still feeling everything. so youre hoping things will either get#magically better or they become worse and you finally dont have to feel anymore#but also once youre there; theres a desire to *feel* something. youre in so much pain you cant cry anymore but it's getting too much#cry cry cry almost as a plea; begging yourself#francis forever is about her music and desire to be seen/validated by fans/industry but needs to prove herself by constantly creating#a lot of her music is about her music and self destructive tendencies she has with it#giving her all. feeling isolated and lonely. not being enough. fighting with herself. list and horniness. loving herself. feeling at the top#the loss of control over your life and feeling aimless despite needing to continue#the idea of being used to fulfill your sense of purpose. to have a reason to do something#it's a wide range of emotions of grief and relief. a sour orange you cant stop sucking on#laurel hell really summarizes the whole journey tbh#im still wondering who/what her 'husband' is

dear god... suddenly emo about Magdalena and Isaac 😢😢
#this is funny because i have so little of their relationship defined in comparison to Gioia and Benedictus#but 🥺🤌🏻 thinking about isaac losing his whole family and fighting like hell to get his sister back.. it's so 😭#but once he gets her back she's painfully quiet. always looking over her shoulder. and simmering with anger!#i think he struggles to reconcile the past version of her + her present self. and how to connect with her through all the muck 🤔#OH.... WAIT i figured it out! just like regular bennie and gioi (fun fact. i realized her name doesn't really shorten nicely just now lol)#i think they build that strong underlying connection because isaac invests attention and care into maggie's music. he shows up to all her#recitals ykwim!.. it's a little different from B+G because isaac isn't maggie's stand-in parent for their neglectful parents.#he functionally Is maggie's parent. but I think Maggie still takes away the same love from it as gioia‚ for different but similar reasons.#I think this is so important for her too because it is. Very Difficult for Maggie to make friends because she's so shaken up..#i feel like bennie would try to get her to go therapy but she'd either refuse on the basis of not trusting authority anymore? OR‚ just like#kat‚ they'd tell her her experiences weren't real... in any case‚ music is maggie's Only outlet. so isaac taking interest and supporting#her in that endeavor‚ when she has very little else‚ would mean a lot to her. i think this all adds a level of 😢 to isaac and vergil's#relationship too because. originally isaac just didn't like vergil due to the whole underground rebellion schtick. that's what got his and#maggie's parents killed. BUT since Magdalena literally had no friends once she came home‚ I think Isaac is really overjoyed when she and#vergil strike up a friendship‚ since this is before Vergil's realized his true nature- the order is a collaborative thing between the two#of them after all. so at first Isaac is glad that his sister finally has a friend. and‚ just like in their future‚ Vergil helps Magdalena#grow into herself and come out of her shell. so isaac likes Vergil in the beginning‚ is grateful for him! plus V's his bosses/sponsor's kid#so there's a nice little 😊 there too. BUT THEN magdalena starts helping vergil remember things - dante - and they start#creating the Order‚ and i think Isaac feels this Great Dread. because vergil is maggie's only friend. vergil saved her!#but the things magdalena gets up to with vergil will get them killed in the future. (and it does lol!)#i think this is where the great split happens between B+G and I+M‚ because Benedictus disappeared before he had to make any Tough Parenting#Choices with Gioia. he was functionally a parent to her‚ but she just saw him as her Super Cool Older Brother.#Isaac is magdalena's older brother but he's also her Guardian (derogatory) ykwim? so. i think when he puts his foot down and tries to#forbid Magdalena from doing anti-demon stuff‚ which evolves into her not being allowed to see Vergil‚ it causes a rift between them.#i'm not sure how severe i want the rift to be... 🙁 by the start of the game it can't be super deep because kat has to be familiar with#isaac 🤪 but then ig he doesn't need to know Magdalena knows her Because of the Order? kat could just be... a friend... 😳🤫#although this then begs the question of whether or not he even knows Magdalena was still involved with the Order all this time? because on#the surface Maggie's schedule really is just work work work. he doesn't have to know What her work is...#that also adds a ☹️ when Magdalena goesmissingdies and then comes back possessed by a demon because it's like groundhog day for him- again‚#he could do nothing to protect his sister from the demons BUT this time it was him raising and watching her‚ not their parents
