i know i could do some long ass deep dive into what makes him such an interesting and compelling character to me but actually i honestly think gambit is my favorite solely because he's straight up willing to die just to kiss the girl he likes. he's so fucking real for that

i get qui-gon has a lot of flaws but it is lowkey iconic he bet a ship that wasn't his and the fate of a planet on a nine year old winning nascar. anyway here's a study of my favourite phantom menace set photo

oh the night maps are so sad without the fireworks when you're used to them being in the background all the time
#it's so quiet :( I'm going to have to kill aleksis about this. :) yes indeed I think that'll cheer me right back up (affectionate)#the ideal chew toy he's always there when I just want to shake something violently like a dog#finally did the fireworks fr fr so now the golden loop lies open before me ready whenever!#worth it for the little convo with julianna you get. colt is so funny. sometimes you don't know you miss a guy#until you've blown him up with a metric ton of fireworks. he really does put the 'not as much of a bastard as he could've been'#honorary wonky star on frank's lapel but like only posthumously. 'oops. turns out I kind of liked him huh 😬'#I do so enjoy the idea of there being a song frank made that colt really really loved... and now it's lost forever#because neither of them remember it and julianna doesn't care. the whole thing about infusing objects being reliant on memory#is soooo. delicious. could've had a recording of it across loops but it'll only last as long as someone remembers it. and then it's gone#like tears in the rain etc.#(also I believe julianna on this one that's such a 'man I WISH I was making this up#the truth is so much sadder and more pathetic than anything I could have come up with' vibe she's got going on fhsdkja#we also see that colt genuinely is into frank's music right down to his murderboard note starting out 'okay let's not get anything twisted:#the tunes to be slappin'. also he'll probably punch and/or shoot you on sight so careful of that maybe'. which is kind of sweet to me#visions of colt having a (postcoital? mayhaps) nap while frank's noodling around on the guitar. I think that would be nice)#deathloop

arkane game environments are sooo... it's not so much that I look at their worlds and go 'I want to be in that place' it's that I look at them and go 'I would like to eat that place'

hehehe oh. wonderful evil idea for the 'blood on his mic, blood on your teeth/blood in our hair' echoes to refer to: some previous colt tried to wake frank up from the sundowning/loop induced forgetfulness the only way he knows how -- the way julianna does with him: through unspeakable violence. and in the end he found he couldn't stomach it for long enough to see if it would work/it just didn't. something about the bodies not staying after death in the loop makes it even more *chef's kiss* to me. imagine how fucked up it would be if you're so lonely, you're desperate, you just need to explain yourself to someone, feel like someone could have your back, and you kind of maybe sort of miss him a bit too and you keep hearing his voice first thing in the morning again and again... and every time you end up alone with the look on his face of fresh new pain and betrayal stuck in your head as his body turns into nothing but an ashen smudge on the studio floor, and all you're left with is both of your blood all over you, still hot but cooling and growing sticky. you try to hand in unlovable hand a motherfucker but his hand keeps turning to smoke in yours. how long can you stand it. when do you decide to call it quits. how many 'just one more go's is one too many for your heart and mind to carry with it. awful. I love it.
(I'm so fascinated by how holding on to someone in the loop necessitates harming them. it's an inherently violent thing to do within the structure/logic of the anomaly. and yet if julianna didn't hold on to colt that way, he might never have kept it together for long enough to break the loop. I wonder if that's part of why he forgets differently to the others; none of them are out there forgetting their names or what happened before the loop. how much of it is down to the person not wanting to remember anymore, trauma response vs. information overflow. if so you could actually push a person further away from you and harder into forgetting by doing this. which is kind of what has happened with colt, actually. he's more aware moment to moment and loop to loop, but loses all his context, he forgets julianna every time he goes dark again and despite how many times this has happened she seems quite upset until he starts to be able to retain enough information/build enough of a context to have some rapport with her again. love is a losing game for everyone involved on this fuckass island but you can't stop spinning the wheel on it anyway. ain't it always the way)
#deathloop#colt x frank#fia is also kind of doing this to charlie though she seems to have given up on the idea that it'll stop them from drifting apart#Themes. colt also went into the loop trying to hold on to someone he loved and lost himself in the process#frank tried to hold on to some past version of himself who's gone and thus now has no future and no growth as the loop goes#(and also tfw no bae lol)#julianna keeps gaining and losing a parent -- having just lost her mother before the loop starts#charlie is hardly the first person to try to cut himself in two because it would help him keep someone he loves. just uh.#a bit more literal case than most lol#the others feel more... egor wenjie and harriet are actual futurists -- they're concerned with what could be more than what was#or is. meanwhile aleksis is happy as a clam in the loop because he's literally just living for the moment. no future no past#wolf head empty let's do drugs and dance about it lmao.#and none of them seem terribly concerned with keeping some connection with other people at all#I suppose we don't KNOW the violence is actually what does it but pick rexly also seems to have reached the conclusion independently#(and it's why she's killing herself over and over)#it's certainly the only thing colt would have known to try! :)#unironically I think frank might be less upset by finding out something like this than thinking colt really didn't even try#to talk to him lol. they have a normal and sane relationship and the role of violence in it is also normal

some colt concept art I haven't seen around a lot from this bethesda site (I... think? that's the link google search connects it with but it's not actually viewable on the site itself for me idk lol). I love that headshot a lot it's a really good expression. the eyes of a dude about to get right back in there for time loop misery 2 electric boogaloo despite the warning signs
