That specific sickly, weird, mottled green color that appears when two mirrors are reflecting each other into infinity is so fucking beautiful… I love you weird nasty green of the aether….
umm real talk though would there be any interest in a satori art collab? drop a reply or rb, if there’s enough interest i might set something up!
(may be incorrect cause ive just been watching playthroughs. going off of the info i got from that which may be missing some parts.)
body horror talk, spoilers from all over the game and ending under the cut.
I love sam. hes just nice (potentially a pushover) and a dork. HES JUST A GUY!!!! i love that the game gives him time to show you how he’s processing his/your actions?
Really funny to me that him being unemployed is part of the reason he’s the protagonist. Can’t become a monster if you don’t have to go outside.
Am curious why he isn't working at the grocery store (if he did work there). did he leave or get fired?
OW losing an arm has GOTTA HURT. i cast pain upon this man.
his hair is just Like That no matter what he does
mY SWEET BABY BOYYYY i want to see him grow up big and strong (not too big and strong considering the everything but you get the idea).
looks like he has some form of "vision" post-mutation?? he doesnt seem to have any issue playing video games so i opt that he can “see”, just not very well. it’s short range and fuzzy. might be more of a feeling of his surroundings than real vision? whatever it is, it's good enough to play super jump lad.
I also HC that he’d developed shortsightedness when he had eyes, just that nobody had noticed yet that he’s squinting at things more than he should…
I think his biting/devouring is involuntary when he’s agitated. thankfully it hasn’t come to him biting any friends so far!
get this boy some popsicle sticks to gnaw on. not even for tooth reasons. eight year olds just love chewing on popsicle sticks. (preferably after popsicle has been consumed)
Apart from not fully understanding everything going on due to his age, he seems a bit dazed from the mutation and probably has brain fog for a few days after, which is Definitely not helping sam with the Oh My God this kid doesnt know his parents are dead. OH GOD I KILLED THIS KID'S PARENTS AND I HAVE STOLEN HIM AWAY
oddly chill with losing teeth. has taken some of his baby teeth out by himself! gives joel my childhood trait of oh hey my tooth is wobbling! lemme get rid of that real quick. twist twist twist
i dont have much to say on her atm but she’s lovely and really doesnt deserve what happens to her. on the bright side the worst seems to be over for her?? if she’s still growing does that mean that she’s gonna have to be like “oop a new head’s budding. gotta get someone to lop that off for me before it becomes a problem.”
FIRST OF ALL i LOVE how his design kind of references how old cameras had to be covered with fabric so the photo wouldn't fail.
i think he wore glasses when he was human! …the lenses got absorbed into his face. the camera he was holding did too. I think he didn’t own as many cameras as he ended up with. That big one he has seems specific enough that maybe that was the one he was using to snap a sky pic??? idk if he touched any other cameras after that but THAT one has gotta be the one he was holding.
idk if he finds spiders GROSS but he is definitely the kind of person to be afraid to be in the same room as one.
I think most of his legs are telescopic to some degree! he just doesnt see the need to make himself any taller than he already is, except for photography reasons.
reiterating from one of my doodle posts, i like to think his eye lenses shed over time. if you took off the lens early on an eye (via injury) it would have weak vision. built-in glasses!
I hope the soul photo thing is like a special attack thing for him that he has to set up intentionally? it feels mean to have all the photos he takes with his built in cameras be the soul-stealing kind. he does take photos by accident/involuntarily a lot but the one he takes after the kiss with sam is totally on purpose and he absolutely still has that one. concerning.
idk if he gets out of his apartment much during the Visit, but it could be that HE hasnt seen any mutations worse than his/doesnt know that sam has totally seen worse. Hence why he's trying to hide so hard from Sam (not to mention the guy is crushing HARD, he's not gonna wanna be vulnerable in front of him).
....also hideous monster or not hes naked under there. i dont blame him for wanting to stay cloaked
oh god theyre art students. that explains SO much.
very funny to me that xaria heard a voice in her head compelling her to check out the window and decided she’s gonna be contrarian about it.
I imagine a lot of Monty’s projects are setting something on fire. shows up to class with a pile of plastic baby heads. sets them ablaze. the most important part of being an art student is the time honored tradition of bullshitting some sort of meaning that’s gonna satisfy the lecturer.
Probably decent at life drawings but he keeps burning his works. (not to mention realism doesnt appear to be his kind of style)
Xaria feels like she’d stick to slightly more traditional mediums (painting, sculpture)? a lot of surrealism, mixed media, themes of nonconformity and violence. has totally used blood in a project before. More intentional about the meaning of her art- the intention being that she wants to make people uncomfortable.
i think it’d be hilarious if they’d been binging horror movies the night before. funniest options are The Thing and Tetsuo the iron man.
Since Sam mutates into something regardless of what you do up on the roof, i’m guessing the same goes for these two if you bring them up there. cool/nasty idea for their mutation is they fuse into one being... not necessarily an idea im running with atm but fun to think abt anyway
AGH, sybil….. i love her. she's just really nice...
I think she’s in some sort of schrödinger’s cat situation - dead and alive until observed. or maybe like a quark (particle that cannot be observed but you can see the effects of it).
it’s unclear if someone ever was next door to you, but if I recall the astronomers tell you there’s no way she’s there? (cant recall if its bc she was “dead” by then or if its the totally wrong floor.)
the game says it was a mystery what happened to sybil, but a potential course of events could be your Real Neighbour just got sucked outta their window same as what happens to you if you look and sybil THINKS shes next door to you.
I’m pretty sure she’s in all of the walls? some of her text implies that, even tho she doesnt seem to be really aware of it.
far as she knows, she's in her apartment. what's her apartment like? well, it's an apartment. it's got walls. she can see out the peephole. there's.... furniture. What else do you want?
(man. between her, the pipe lady, the water pump guy, and the boiler room the walls are CROWDED. no wonder the roaches decide to move to your place.)
what do i even say about it? it is, in the most direct meaning of the word, awesome. it’s unfathomably immense. it's beautiful. it's horrifying. I love that in a single eye out of infinite eyes, it sees a miniscule creature who just wants to live. Sam becomes a smaller reflection of the Visitor, and the visitor gains a fraction of what makes sam human…
I wonder, did the visitor even “exist” until witnessed? same as sybil, maybe it could have some quantum thing going on. i can’t speculate on this any more than the astronomers have.
while it’s the nicest ending possible, i still feel kinda bad for sam :( he can never be truly alone anymore, but at the same time isn’t becoming a giant god-creature kind of isolating? sure, he must grow used to it over time but MAN. WHAT AN ADJUSTMENT.
regardless, it’s nice that he decides to use his new form to take care of the world, and sounds like he probably gets some extra brain capacity to be able to do all the stuff he does. (probably a few extra mini-brains to control the different arm nodes)
I hope he gets to take time for himself too, sometimes. probably sleeps like a dolphin (switch off half the brain for a power nap)
I don't think he can do verbal communication (at least, it's gonna take him a WHILE to figure out how to talk with his feelers) but at least there's keyboards.
also its funny how he gains like a gajillion arms after potentially losing one of two.
also i love the cafe patrons and the mutants at the camp. theyre all so fun. AND MANUEL FUNKY LITTLE DUDE WITH THE JAMS.
i need to find more about the lady with the slasher mask i just know she exists.
@mtgc858 @deafeningfestivalpaper @kasprawn39 @contract-crawdad @goawaypopup @eyessss come get yer headcanons
anyway uhhhhhhh hope you found my rambling fun to read byee
Some kinda oldish Dan doodles- these are from my first attempts at his cursed form ehehe
Eye contact and body horror warning for below:
These last three are a lil more recent thoo
What's wrong guys? It's just him, it's just the Same 'Ol Dan :')
Satori headcanons lets goooo
-He’s a dizygotic triplet, meaning that while Hotori and Kotori are identical, he’s the only fraternal!
-He didn’t even really know that he had brothers until he met Enel. But that’s some real sad backstory stuff ill be holding onto unless someone asks for it.
-But as a result of this they’re all very attached to each other, and do a lot of silly things. For example, Satori was born with pretty bad eyesight. Kotori and Hotori have fine eyesight, but they wear matching glasses anyway because they’re family :3
-the yellow tint to the lenses is for sad backstory reasons, but there IS an explanation. It goes hand in hand with his signature laugh.
-the secondary reason for the tint is that he can’t see glass very well, being half bird and all. Which brings me to…
-Birkans are kind of a gamble in terms of what kind of Fucking Furry they turn out to be. If they don’t look like a goat, (and oftentimes even if they do) they’ll get a mix of different bird traits. Satori got the short end of the stick here, having hollow bones and really sensitive lungs. All the things to make a bird’s respiratory system efficient, without the looping system. So in the end you just have a guy that goes into a coughing fit if the room is too dusty and could break his whole foot if he stubs his toe. <\3
-as a result of this he really likes the forest because the air is nice and clean!
-he lives in a cute lil cabin without windows because one time he got too excited and smashed thru one papyrus style. so he just decided to get rid of em after that lol
-bonus: Shura resembles a bird from the hips down. He also has scaly, clawed hands. 5 fingers but still birdlike. He got it way better than Satori.
-Expanding on the bone thing, Sanji’s kick to his head was particularly nasty not because it caused brain damage or anything, but because the direct downward force fucked up some vertebrae along with his head. Cursed with forever back pain now.
-His palms are very scarred from impact dial use. He specially engineered his gloves to be able to lock into position, with the dial sandwiched in between two layers of armor. So while it’s not too damaging anymore, the testing stages did a number on his hands.
-He’s also never getting any of the credit for designing the Ark Maxim lol. But engineering is more his area of expertise, as opposed to the other priests who are fighters. Even Gedatsu is stronger physically, by a longshot. Satori is just the brainy runt that can’t do shit without his dials <\3 but hes real smart i prommy
-he had a wife at one point. now he just has abandonment issues. context upon request because that’s some real heavy sad backstory stuff.
-Him and all the other priests don’t respond well to being restrained. The downside to observation haki rip
-he doesn’t have horns but he DOES have an ahoge that boings up if he takes his hat off.
-he’s only 5 ft tall and wears risers in his shoes. Even more height is added with breath dials he uses to get more air (and soft landings) when he jumps around. His brothers do the same, but they’re both 5’3 naturally.
-All the priests have subtle patterns on their wings. Satori has white iridescent round eyespots on each feather, that are only visible in certain lighting.
-he loves peanuts so much. it’s a bird thing. its not his canon favorite food, but anything peanutty is up there with his top faves. If you offer him peanut butter noodles he’ll be your best friend ever.
-hes very tired of other people making ball jokes. but he laughs at his own. he thinks hes the funniest guy ever.
-can you tell that the token nerd and funnyguy hcs were ripped straight from numbuh 2
-thats it :3
Ice cold takes from a Transgender Woman:
Not all Men are evil
Everyone has the capacity for evil
Transgender Men are men
Transgender Women are women
Excluding Cisgender Men from your spaces requires Transgender Men to out themselves if they want to engage (Same for Women)
Anyone can be Non-Binary, there is no "look" or requirement
Non-binary masculine presenting people should be welcome in queer spaces, many are just treated as men and predators
Non-binary feminine presenting people should be welcome in queer spaces without being seen as "Woman-Lite"
