🙈 see no evil and 🔪 knife for the creature?
🙈 SEE-NO-EVIL - whats a side of your oc that they don’t want to show other people?
you'll get to see this in the game but their insecurity
🔪 KNIFE - how do they react to injury / misfortune befalling their loved ones (significant other, family, friends)? do they put themselves at blame?
their first instinct is to worry, and panic a bit if it's something more serious than like, a bruise or small nick. they like to think they're solution-oriented, though, so they'll start looking for supplies to help or if it's something they don't know how to deal with, someone who can help better

Oc emoji asks: 🌟 GLOWING STAR - what do they think about when they look at the night sky? is there someone they want to star gaze with?
for any character you want
🌟 GLOWING STAR - what do they think about when they look at the night sky? is there someone they want to star gaze with?
the creature: they think the night sky is amazing, especially when there's meteor showers or you can see the planets with the naked eye. they find it reassuring to think about how big the universe is and that they're only a small part of something bigger (they don't often feel small). they'd like to stargaze with any of their friends, and they'd love rob's explanations about stars
hen: they think the sky is pretty but it's not something they've put a lot of thought into. for them it's a lot more something they'll enjoy in the moment; eg after a party while they're taking a walk in the gardens or if the person they're with wants to go stargazing. most likely to plan a stargazing picnic for everyone because it's more fun for them to see their friends have fun than just look at the stars.
robert: he likes thinking how it's the same night sky across the world, so even when he's far away from home and his loved ones, they're still under the same stars. he loves learning more about how different peoples interpret the constellations, and the stories they have surrounding them. he loves sharing this with people he's close to; he especially likes to take his niblings out on warm summer nights and teach them about the stars.
eli: she has a somewhat more utilitarian approach to observing the night sky; while she does think it's beautiful, she also uses it to tell the time and find her way. she likes learning more about wayfinding using the stars. she likes hot summer nights watching the stars with the frankenstein siblings and the people working in the mansion
#am i projecting my interests onto robert? perhaps#i'm still so wholly fascinated by learning about the northern dene and their full sky constellation#and learning how to read the traveler's path in the sky#char: the creature#char: robert walton#char: hen clerval#char: elizabeth lavenza#answered#anonymous

still alive & coming back
hey all!
first i wanted to start off by apologizing for being very MIA over the past four months; it was my last semester of university and a lot busier than expected. if everything goes well, though, i'll be an engineer shortly so that'll have been worth it!
what it means for unmourned, concretely, is that i'll be slowly coming back and becoming more active! i'll be having a lot more free time over the next few months. after that, i'll be settling into work but i'll still have a lot more time than i did over the past semester. i won't have a concrete update post until a week or two from now, but i did chip away at the game when i could during the semester.
i'll be reblogging some prompt lists this weekend and answering them, and i'm thinking of something nice to do over the holidays, so if you have any ideas, don't hesitate <3
#'that'll have been worth it' they say#like a liar#but that's ok if i passed chem i am forever done with school <3#im drawing some cute winter themed portraits of the characters hehe#astra speaks#i missed u all and i am SO sorry for the unanswered asks in my inbox#i have seen them all and i give u all a kiss

You know I talk too much Honey, come put your lips on mine and shut me up We could blame it all on human nature
And what I think about One love, two mouths One love, one house
L'envie de vivre trop vite Vouloir tout essayer Te fait reprendre la fuite Te fait recommencer
these are all very hen songs!! they have both the neighbourhood and hubert lenoir on their playlist, although it's not those exact songs (it's west coast and alleyways from the former, and j-c from the latter)
#also yes i listen to sweater weather in the year of our lord 2021#what about it#its in my roadtrip playlist bc its easy to sing along to adjklasjdk

🤢 for Robert?
Ratatouille is his favourite movie. He thinks it's super inspirational and corrects people when they call Remy ratatouille
Texts like a boring old man. Used to sign his texts before his niece told him it wasn't cool
Uses 3 in 1 shampoo. Conditioner? Don't know her. Annoyingly still has soft shiny hair

🤢 Hen
absolutely terrible at removing their makeup before going to bed, so they've perfected that 2nd day raccoon eye look
the type of person to ghost people on social media while they're posting pics on instagram
awful sense of direction. they'd do better if they picked random directions instead of trying to find their way
