#they could be so many things

[liauditore]

Hello i am very politely asking for who 77.9 and 76 are and why they're named that :)

An excuse to rant about my writing?? :D :D

referring to this and this

You guys got it right! 77.9 is Pearl and 76 is Martyn. I think I'll leave the reason behind why they're called that for after I'm done with the whole series but if you do some digging around the fandom you'd probably be able to find it 👍 (it's not that deep lol)

Narrative-wise a hint I could give is that it was very much me stealing the idea from Your Turn to Die if you're familiar with that (if you're not you should get into it everyone should get into your turn to die).

Pearl's def the easiest to guess just by noticing the Watcher referring to her as "her" so I didn't really care too much about making that one subtle lol

Cus I feel like rambling here's some symbolism stuff in there (pay attention to the questions about cats and dogs, for instance) where I tried to put some "the curtains were blue because he was sad" energy into, like:

The Watcher: What are your thoughts on cats? 77.9: I don't have any choice but to answer your stupid questions, huh? [The Watcher remains silent] 77.9: Cats are nice, I guess. When I was little I used to feed this stray cat that showed up sometimes. I was convinced we had some sort of special bond, but one day he just didn't show up again. I like to think that he died peacefully.

Like, yes this is literally about a cat, but it's also an echo of her relationship with Scott. She gives and gives in return for any semblance of companionship, kind but insecure. Naive enough that she'd rather convince herself that the cat died instead of it just leaving her. So when Scott confirms her worst fears in DL, she breaks.

The Watcher: Do you prefer cats or dogs? 76: Aren't both great? Most people think I'm more of a dog person but if I had to choose, I think I'd rather have a cat.

Then here, in Martyn's interrogation, a somewhat similar question gets asked. Again, yes, very literal question and answer - the guy just likes cats.

But it's also a reflection of his loyalty towards Ren and Dogwarts. Ngl I kind of overuse cats as symbolism so they mean a lot of different things but here I was trying to get at their more solitary and independent reputation (because in the end, Martyn would've betrayed Ren to win the game).

Honestly I could talk at length about their characterizations in this, how it ties in with my headcanons/mercenary AU, the milgram/SCP inspo, etc. etc. but I don't wanna ramble too hard or else I'll feel like I don't have to make the art anymore lmao (but feel free to ask pls ask im buzzing vibrating brrrr)

so uh yeah 👍

Apparently this needs to be said so

Forgetting things is morally neutral! Memory issues are morally neutral!

You're not a bad person if you...

forget things quickly

forget people

can't remember entire stages of your life

can't remember important things

can remember some things very well and forget other things all the time

can't remember things (or anything!) about your interests

forget to eat, sleep, go to the bathroom, etc

forget to reply to texts

remember things and immediately forget them again

can't remember birthdays, events, etc

frequently answer 'I forgot' to questions

can't retain new information

forget things you used to know

only remember things when it's too late

have vague, distorted and/or unreliable memories

depend on others to know how an event you were in played out

have other symptoms that are worsened by memory issues and vice versa

... and anything else I might have missed!

Columbo and the Knight (1984)

put me in the universe where Columbo ran through the 1980s and had a crossover episode with Knight Rider. I think they deserved it, and I am not just saying that because they're my two favorite Old Shows. @telebeast wrote a little fanfic blurb about it and I HAD to visualize it into a comic (which is also the longest comic I have finished thus far at five pages...), so writing credit goes to them.
