Closure

I will continue to make artwork of the Qsmp 2023 but 2024 does not exists to me and any use of q!Quaickty would purely be for the character not the actor.

Hey! Question.

Do you also suffer from the sadness you create? Or are you just here to torment us?

Thanks!

thinking abt various possibilities for hickey-centric fix-it rescue scenarios and am realizing that if you set the divergent point for them getting saved far enough into the show he would just. Not want to leave. at all. i can see him getting rescued and brought to safer land/waters/wherever with the rest of whoever is still alive and just. running away. going back. craving the mind numbing expanse of arctic wastelands, too deep in manic psychosis to process anything other than the connection he believes he has with the tuunbaq. obviously the ending they get in the show is for many of the characters the only possible ending that would ever make thematic sense, but for hickey especially he just Could Not do Anything that Wasn't staying in the arctic and dying there. he would never survive in the arctic and he would never survive anywhere else. he can't leave he can't stay all he can do is die there and face how much he does not belong anywhere

I literally just revived my tumblr so I can like and follow along with your dunmesh analysis. Thank you so so so soooooo much for making chilchuck's master post bc I've been searching far and wide on how to cope from little no info in the manga ending, like EVERYTHING abt his wife and much less his daughters. It was a great half day reading for me and all the tidbits of your hc just makes me squee, giggle, and kick feet now and then. My question is the extra drawing kui-san post of halfoots portrait and one that look like chil's wife canon?? Like confirmed? most post online saying its official (even wiki) but I can't find the sauce on it

Thank you this makes me so happy to hear!! u//_//u This made me rush to the wiki in fear but no it actually explains the situation well- I did have a hand in editing her wiki about the topic of her appearance a while back so I was worried for a hot sec gdbdg

It's not confirmed or canon, and left intentionally so. I show the translated quote and link the QnA source here for easing finding. It's simply a popular fanon theory because it has some support. Notably the daughters' appearances like stated, but also the chapter 52 cover showing a kid that looks suspiciously like Chilchuck with a kid that looks suspiciously like her, and also because Kui has a tendency to fill the portrait pages with background characters, like all the tallmen portraits, so it sounds like her to sneak something like this in.

I do really like this, I've talked about it before but I do think she left it ambiguous for story and theme reasons too. Chilchuck has a thing for blonde women, so is his wife blonde or not? Left up to everyone's opinions. Seems unlikely to me, and I love the themes of his wife not being blonde but still having facial features like his succubi's soo much, what's acquired taste and what isn't? But hey anyone who wants to theorize she looks more like Marcille's self-insert as a half-foot sure can! The story gives us very little details on what actually happened on purpose, because people would get caught up in their heads about "she should have left him" and "she shouldn't have left him" and "she should forgive him and take him back" or "he doesn't deserve her forgiveness" and it's not about that! It's not the what his arc's about, it's not what it's trying to say! Do they reconcile or not? Who knows! How much do they still love each other? How much did he neglect her for her to have left like that? Some even take the possibility of her not being blonde if true as proof he's a shitty husband that looks for eyecandy elsewhere and just! So much judgement so many biases that the story is trying to avoid, to offer a fresh slate to nudge the readers towards what the focus should be.

The goal is ambiguity, the goal is not knowing- because only then can you put yourself in Chilchuck and Marcille's shoes for their arc. Only then can you put yourself in Marcille's shoes theorizing about her and trying to gauge whether she's being too charitable or not hopeful enough, only then can you put yourself in Chilchuck's shoes where he doesn't know why she left, where he doesn't know if he still has a chance to win her back. Does he? Who knows! But that's not important, the point is that after canon he's learned that the risk of shooting his shot, of fighting for his love, is worth it, if there's even a chance that it could work out then it's worth the possible price of rejection and the terrifying horror of vulnerability. Being hopeful, the value Chilchuck needed to learn, requires not knowing the outcome, so the story forces it upon us, even with meta. Chilchuck is a man who has assumed the worst out of everyone and the world for so long, who consistently spoke confidently about how if something can go wrong it will, so him learning to let go of that pessimism as a defense coping mechanism into embracing uncertainty is actually huge! And it's that same lack of closure readers must learn to make their peace with, just as he has.

something something foils moving in opposite directions Goku's always happy to seek and fight stronger opponents because he spent most of his life being the strongest guy in the room and Vegeta wants to be the strongest/is always exhausted to find stronger opponents because he spent most of his life having to navigate his survival around the whims of the strongest guy in the universe room and so Goku has a foundation of safety and stability and so spends his time craving challenge and adventure and Vegeta has a foundation of challenge and adventure and spends his time craving safety and stability and the overlaid section of their venn diagram is that the only way they know how acquire and maintain those things is through battle

By the way.

You know what Quigley Down Under, Leverage, and Sons of the Star all have in common?

They're all fix-it fics of real life.

They're not superhero stories. They're not fighting made-up monsters. They, each and every one, look the world's darkness - real, tangible darkness, one we all have perceived, however dimly, real life darkness - in the face and they go, "Yeah. But what if there was someone larger than life who could fight it."

Quigley can shoot better than anyone else in the world. The team pulls off impossible cons. Max Way is six foot six and bulletproof. Because that's what they need to impact their worlds. Our world. The real world. And maybe they don't fix everything. They can't. But one more baby saved, one more murderer dead, one more client getting their money back, one more child set free, one more girl saved from poverty, one more soul saved by Christ's blood. One little thing a tiny bit better, and the vindication to go with it.

They're fix-it fics of real life.
