To Odie ASSman,

Mod Post: Queue!

As of now, we have ten posts in the queue! It's very exciting, both the amount of asks and the amount of followers we've gotten. Keep the questions coming!

Also, not to ~ spoil ~ one of the upcoming answers, but I do need to give credit to this post somewhere, and I feel like this is the best opportunity.

🔥Do. You. Dare. Mock. Me. Now. 🔥

🔥🔥DO YOU? 🔥🔥

🔥Aha ha ha ha ha haaaaaa 🔥

Well 🔥Do what you will...

You'll see... In due time🔥

I will be watching over her... Closely... As I always have...

And should the thought of deceiving her... Even fleetingly cross your mind...

🔥🔪I WILL NOT SPARE YOU🔥🔪

IT IS ONLY FAIR NOW

THAT I SHOULD PROTECT MY OWN BLOOD THIS WAY

Wouldn't you agree...

Mr Drebber?

🔥🔥🔥🔥AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

To presumably Courtney Sithe, or at least what remains of her,

I am glad to see I can always count on your levelheadedness in any sort of precarious situation. I am certainly thankful that your work is, or at least was, in that of dead bodies, rather than alive.

I am in no way trying to deceive your daughter. As for blood...

I have made my own sacrifice because of my family trying to protect their blood in much the same way. Do be careful of how tightly you hold onto them, as you may be applying a tourniquet to a wound or instead a healthy limb. Is it worth it to tempt the possibility of necrotic tissue that must be removed?

Scientifically yours, Enoch Drebber

Mod Post: A Question for You

I am a writer who used to do so much more frequently, but have been hit with a terrible writer's block for years. Doing these little asks has gotten that creativity flowing a bit more, and I was wondering: Would you as an audience be interested in seeing what other kind of work I do, or helping me make decisions on said works without seeing them; or would you prefer that this blog be kept specifically to dgs 2 asks?

Mod Update: gifs

Hello everyone!! Currently I'm in a bit of a weird place where I can very easily answer asks but for whatever reason physically cannot add gifs, and occasionally tags, to the posts. Sorry about that! Hopefully I can update the posts later. Thanks for your patience! Keep the asks coming in! <3

hosonaga-san what is your favorite disguise youve ever utilized on a mission

To Ribbonroad:

I shall have you know that I cannot, will not, be discovered this easily! As I am an incredible master of disguise and could be anyone, anywhere, at any time, it would be utterly foolish for me to admit what my favorite disguise is!

However, that being said, I suppose I could tell you about one of my disguises I have retired.... Hm.

All I will say is that I am quite fond of turtles.

Enoch, would you believe me if I said that one day man would reach the moon using an as of yet unexplored method of propulsion?

Anon.

You bring up a fascinating concept. I have long wondered myself whether it was possible for man to reach the moon, or perhaps even further. I think I may believe that it is possible, though I do not know how long in the future that may be.

It is something that I myself will have to look into. I know that propulsion could theoretically be used to lift something rather than trying to imitate the flapping of wings or, God forbid, Benjamin's inane ramblings on teleportation. That being said... yes. Yes, I will have to look into the science myself.

Thank you for the idea. Enoch Drebber

You have other work?!? grabby hands!

Indeed I do. I'd say my magnum opus would be this near 5,000 word epistolary I wrote about the Professor killings and such. It took me five months of research and writing and it was so fun and I am genuinely so proud of it. I have tons of other stuff on that account, but I love this story so much. I love epistolary and I'm fascinated by the stuff that happened before the plot of dgs.

Under the read more is a link and a description of the story and the work that went into it.

Signed, Mod of the Baskervilles

This story is an epistolary. If you don't know what that is, it's a story told entirely through documents. If you want an example of a really good one, the original version of Dracula by Bram Stoker is an epistolary.

I based the story off of a lot of things, but in particular, Dracula, various Sherlock Holmes stories (especially, of course, Hound of the Baskervilles), and original documents I found from the time period. I researched birth certificates, newspaper clippings, letters, journal entries, and even submissions to parliament. I talked to people who, like me, are really into the Victorian period. I asked my British friends for help on various aspects of life in England.

I realize it may not look like it, but a lot of fics take a lot of work. This one, I was writing before we knew that dgs would ever be localized. I had high doubts about it specifically because of the copyright surrounding Sherlock Holmes. I am so pleased that I made and released it when I did, as it came out a month before the localization. It's, in my opinion, a fascinating resource into what the story was like before the localization. I still haven't finished DGS 2 quite yet, so I have yet to see, for example, what Klimt's will ended up looking like. I based it half off of some random clipping I found on the wiki that I have no idea of the source for, and also a fanslation (not the dubbed one by I believe TaisaTheGamer or something along those lines, but a subbed one by a channel that's like Dai Gyakuten Saiban 2 or something).

So, basically, this is a lovely little melting pot of two or three translations, my own grammar edits, real historical documents, Arthur Conan Doyle, Bram Stoker, and some friends of mine. I am so proud of it.

To Albert and/or Barok- Are you fond of desserts? If so, which ones? Signed, Ivy

Dear Ivy,

Can you believe! That there are some people who don't enjoy desserts? Preposterous! What could be more delicious than some sort of sweet treat?!

Since the dawn of humanity we've been searching out fruits for their incredible taste, and now there are some people who, when given the chance, turn down the opportunity to eat such things? Whenever I try to cook something it ends up horribly burnt, tasteless, terrible! And yet! Although Barok has people to cook for him, who do it well, who never burn anything, he turns it down! Cakes and pies, biscuits and jams, all sorts of flavored ices and small candies!

It baffles the mind! It boggles the brain! I must off to go take some desserts now, all this talk has upset me...

William Shamspeare,

If you were a type of equine what kind would you be? Unicorn? Pegasus? Regular horse but with a flamboyant color scheme perhaps?

Best wishes

Dearest anon,

I haven't the faintest idea how you learned of my proclivity for horses. Majestic creatures, are they not? Whether tis nobler to be the beast that trots and whinnies in outreaching forests, or to grow wings through a seabound deity and by opposing use them.

I know that I am not a fan of the work horse. Though they have their place, I would not want to be used in such a way. I have always had a connection with the racehorse, the ones with an attitude, a prance in their step and a preference for various foods. As for colour schemes, I don't know how flambouyant a horse could be. Though, their racing uniforms can be quite fancy.

Signed,

William Shamspeare

Dear cousin Iris and Papa and Daddy,

My brother Henry had been acting weird lately.

You see my brother is a prosecutor like papa and is known as the storyteller and lately his been depressed and I don’t know why ever since his last trial.

What do you think I should do?

With love your daughter and cousin Heather Kelly Van zikes

To Heather,

Sometimes things can be very taxing on people! I am not sure what exactly the context of this trial was, but what I do know is that you are always free to ask. Even if you don't come up with an answer, you will at least know that you have tried.

I've found that whenever Papa or my Uncle Barok are feeling down, when I just spend some time with them, they tend to feel much better.

I hope you can come up with a solution!

Iris
