Okay so like

Killer got the way he is because somebody messed with his code, right? Like he's still based on a video game sans so he has code, but what about others who were never based on games?

Dream and Nightmare were never in game-like circumstances, their world is like a storybook. So to change them would someone have to mess with scripts? If someone wanted to mess with their world would it be like ripping out a few pages?

Or someone like Horror whose AU exists mainly through webcomics, would messing with his world involve changing the html? Probably only Ink knows for sure what form everybody takes but it's interesting to think about

Experimenting with work-skins on AO3 day 1.

Boy, did I spend way more hours on this than I meant to considering I have actual deadlines to meet.

notes under the cut-off:

Textures as backgrounds was a game-changer ngl (really it's just a background-image: url("link") !important) - credit to La_Temperanza on AO3, check out her tutorial on formatting letters and stationary here!

However, I so wish that AO3 allowed fonts. Not because web-safe fonts are bad, but there's so few. Just using the cursive (as seen in Joel's letter) might accidentally translate to a goofy ass front on microsoft devices. So a few more options, or the option to embed fonts one day would be *chefs kiss*

I have no idea when or if I'll use the Sibyl's Diner check, or F's computer (rewriting, I'm thinking of different ways of opening the story. I don't like the current one lol) but I just think they're neat so they get to stay.

Coding is like, surprisingly easy. Did I have a few hiccups with the texture urls? yes. But did I win in the end? Yes.

Deltarune doodles, AND introducing Soultwin

Fake game design ramble under the cut:

With the Player having finally claimed their Vessel, you are given the choice of whether to return Kris's SOUL to them, as it had been trapped within the Vessel up until then, or absorbing it for yourself to become even more powerful -- a whopping 5 levels are added to the Vessel -- which removes Kris from the party entirely. As Susie had her arm broken in the Light World, she will also not fully participate in Battles, and if you absorb Kris's SOUL, she will leave as well. This forces you to fully recruit Noelle. Ralsei will still be with you, but he will be deeply unhappy.

If, like in these doodles, the Player gives Kris back their SOUL, they become a unique party member. They will not FIGHT outside of specific battles, and their ACTs now all cost TP and are initially significantly less effective without you. The reason being that if they don't outright refuse (and DEFEND instead) Kris's ACTs are very likely to fail. the failure rate and TP cost both lower as their opinion of you improves.

The plus and minus signs beside the dialogue choices correspond to Kris's opinion of the Player, the idea being that since the Player no longer directly controls Kris, you must build their opinion of you, which aids in building their self-esteem. Specific ACTs check specific values for their TP and success modifiers but will still have a baseline that factors in all values.

Flirting, for instance, requires Kris to have fairly high opinion of you in general, particularly WHITE, CYAN, and ORANGE, for it to succeed. In the case of flirting, however, this refusal is the one and only time they do so, and your response dictates whether they will permanently refuse such ACTs or will keep trying with the faith of you and Susie behind them. (Both non-cruel options will significantly increase the enemy's SPARE percentage as well, as they will be inspired by your leadership. A one-time boon, but a fun detail.)

If Kris refuses an ACT, they give you two reasons why that directly correspond to their opinion of you and the ACT's checked value. If they fail, you are given a vague idea of which value to improve. And if Kris succeeds, their WHITE value increases.

All of the choices you make in Kris's presence will affect their opinion of you, as well as some that they don't directly see or hear if it's reasonable that they will find out about it. Boosting or lowering all other values by at least 1 will also boost or lower WHITE by at least 1, with the increase becoming gradually larger as their opinion grows. Having their opinion at an overall high level is what turns the Good Ending into a Better Ending, or even a Better Ending into the Best Ending. You will have brought Kris back up from the low, low place they had to be to trade their SOUL away for possession, giving them the willpower to face life as themself again.

You can, of course, always skip all this nonsense by picking "Proceed", and other such domineering or cruel choices. But remember that you must accept the possibility of pain and seizure.

The facets that make up Kris's opinion all range from -255 to 255, for a total possible maximum value of 1,785, and are:

RED | Control - Your lingering command over Kris's will. This likely starts higher than the rest. Increasing it lowers Kris's WHITE value, and low values increase how much their WHITE value can increase per boost. Initial value is affected by how many times you have chosen unkind dialogues, how many times you have chosen to FIGHT outside of certain Battles, what route your playthrough is on (Normal, Aborted Weird, or Weird), and your progression through the Sword Route, prior to separating from Kris. Can never go below 0.

CYAN | Temper - How patient Kris thinks you are. Initial value varies depending on how few times you have skipped through dialogue, how many times you've moved between rooms, how many items you have obtained, how many Battles you have participated in, and how optional scenes you've triggered, prior to separating from Kris.

ORANGE | Confidence - Your perceived bravery. Initial value can be boosted by giving the Vessel the gift of Bravery, and varies depending on how many times you have grazed during an enemy's turn without getting hit, prior to separating from Kris.

BLUE | Trust - How much Kris believes in you as a leader. Initial value can be boosted by giving the Vessel the gift of Ambition, and varies depending on how many team ACTs you have performed and how many Darkners you have recruited to Castle Town, prior to separating from Kris.

PURPLE | Smarts - How intelligent Kris thinks you are. Initial value can be boosted by giving the Vessel the gift of Mind, and varies depending on how many times you have avoided damage during an enemy's turn, how many times you have 0%-to-SPARE'd an enemy within one turn, how many quiz questions you answered correctly in Chapter 3, and how many puzzles you have solved without significant error, prior to separating from Kris.

GREEN | Gentleness - How caring Kris thinks you are. Initial value can be boosted by giving the Vessel the gift of Kindness, and varies depending on how many enemies you have LOST, how many times Kris has used a healing item, and how many nice choices you have made both in and out of dialogue to other characters, prior to separating from Kris.

YELLOW | Resolve - Kris's understanding of your willpower and moral code. Initial value varies depending on how few times you have chosen FIGHT outside of certain Battles, how many times you have successfully performed perfect inputs when possible, how many times you have revived a party member from being Downed, how many secret bosses you have encountered, what route your playthrough is on (Normal, Aborted Weird, or Weird), and your progression through the Sword Route, prior to separating from Kris.

WHITE | Friendship - How much Kris values your company in Castle Town and the Light World. Initial value is weighted very low, but is affected by your Vessel's favorite food and how you felt about your Vessel at creation, and can be positively improved depending on how friendly you were to Susie, Ralsei, Berdly, and Noelle, as well as how many unique dialogue boxes you have seen in Castle Town and the Light World, prior to separating from Kris. Likely begins with a negative value, especially in an Aborted Weird or Weird Route playthrough.

[deltarune-au-domain]

dude, your blog's theme is completely broken. maybe you should check it out

Oh, yeah, I know. But I don't know how to fix it, and the person I bought the code from never responded to my email, so uh.. yeah... there's no other deltarune [tumblr] themes out there (to my knowledge) and I've been too lazy to remove it (and also I'm afraid it'll fuck up my domain thing)

So if anyone can make me a new one, I'll like- idk- make you art or something? I can pay you like- $10 (I think that's how much I paid for the theme) If you'd prefer. I may know HTML, but [tumblr] themes are outta my knowledge range...

TLDR: I can't contact the og creator of the code so if I'll play someone to make me a new one if they're willing :p

[fishareglorious]

Hello my r1999 soldiers. I am looking for people able to help me with the making of a website that'll contain the story logs. Writing them down one by one is going to take me thirteen years if I do that, so may I ask, are any of you willing to help with providing the logs? Including the branching dialogue options? Something along these lines:

If you wanna help, please feel free to dm me here with the info, or message me on discord at friedfishforsale.

Currently am focusing on writing the main story, specifically with the This is Tomorrow (prologue) and In Our Time.

[foxgirlmoth]

Very very likely I will be doing some online sex work in the future and will probably have a 2nd nsfw blog I'll update and throw stuff on. Gonna be doing stuff with a girl I met at college and we talked about Marx and communism a lot which rocks.

okok so numbers 3, 11, 19 and 31for aeron/axel/drew? :0 also i love the new oc page i just saw it its so cute!!!!

OC Relationship Questions! | the OC page! :D

3. What is their love language?

aeron's is acts of service drew's is physical touch axel's is words of affirmation

11. Who is clingy?

DREW. oh my fucking GOD. drew clings like nothing else. axel can get kinda needy and clingy sometimes, but he's not as intense about it as they are.

19. How good are they are communication?

better, now! i think axel has the most problems with it; because he still sorta thinks that he's supposed ot be Cool and Strong and not show "weakness", so he doesn't like to bring up when he has issues. drew and aeron are pretty good at reading him though.

31. How would they describe one another.

drew would describe axel as "cute, but he's trying too hard. i love having someone who wants to save me, though!" and would describe aeron as "tragic, but without a villain, i wouldn't need a hero. honestly, it's really, really awesome to know he wants me enough to try and steal me away." aeron would describe drew as "a rose on fire in my garden." and would describe axel as "my other half." he doesn't want to elaborate what those words mean to him. axel would describe aeron as "well, if he died, then we don't have to be rivals anymore. i won, right? so... if he wants, i can dedicate a little time to figuring out more than his bad side." and would describe drew as "the prettiest thing i know, i'm glad no one's taking them away from me anymore."

Hey! I hope everyone liked the bday art! (The one made by soumerinne was actually done around early this year around the time the Asmo version is finished lol; in Tagalog we call that "advanced mag-isip" lol). To followers waiting for PSISLY updates promised today, please go to my AO3. The tumblr crosspost will take a while to be integrated here more than usual since CSS and the HTMLs broke on me (one of the codes that worked fine when it was in drafts wasn't working anymore when I published it ADjslkfjsdjfsd) I know it's been rough for official obey me content but it won't affect my release schedule for this fic. Happy birthday to the best character in the series(biased). I'm so happy he has more fans! He needs more love! <3

"don't steal my theme" you mean the photos u got from google images & the theme being a direct copy of either 1) very famous pop culture reference or 2) any social media's layout

[chthonicrose]

I am idly wondering if I am unusual on this point after reading a post from @prokopetz about a href tags

I’d appreciate reblogs for a larger sample size!

[motorclit]

Got some advice for a lot of Gen Z and Gen Alpha: learn your technology.

No. I mean actually LEARN it, not just how to navigate it. Learn how it works, why it works the way it does, learn to code, learn even the laws, what it's like to run a website, servers, etc.

Cuz if you want online alternatives to the same 5 websites or some shit, you're gonna have to be the ones who come together and do it. If you got time to scroll endless hours on Twitter and tiktok, you got time to ban together with like-minded people and learn how to take back the internet. (Fellow Millennials who remember MySpace, take note as well!)

I advise you learn the history of what the internet has been like. Don't just read blog posts, articles, and watch YouTube videos. Talk to us Millennials about it! Many of us learned very basic coding from just wanting a better-looking MySpace profile! YOU CAN STILL CODE YOUR TUMBLR BLOG TO LOOK COOL FOR WEB BROWSERS.

Learn to understand that the internet is more than touchscreens and apps! The internet was NEVER supposed to be what it is today! Several people sounded the alarm about big companies creeping into the internet! What we are living through is why! Because guess what: THE INTERNET USED TO BE FUN!

Please please PLEASE try this for a while! I'm even trying to learn more basic coding myself! This book from 2006 helps break down the basics into something that's understandable:

If the pic doesn't load, the book is called "Head First: HTML with CSS and XHTML", a learner's guide to creating standards-based web pages. The authors listed on the cover are Elisabeth Freeman and Eric Freeman.

Yes, this teaches you how to make a very simple web pages from the mid-00s and it only works on a web browser, but my gods, the sense of satisfaction you get from making this shit work...

YOU ALSO DONT NEED FANCY FUCKING SOFTWARE. EVERY COMPUTER COMES WITH THE PROGRAM TO MAKE WEBPAGES.

AND THAT PROGRAM IS CALLED NOTEPAD.

I AM NOT KIDDING. NOTEPAD IS SPECIFICALLY FOR CODING. YOU DO NOT NEED TO BE CONNECTED TO THE INTERNET TO DO THIS EITHER. YOU CAN MAKE IT AND TWEAK IT TO YOUR HEART'S CONTENT UNTIL IT'S READY TO GO ONTO THE INTERNET!

Be aware: the server thing you can upload your practice website to listed in this book is defunct. The images for examples in this book might be, too. With this in mind, I chose a subject I knew something about for practice, and that was simply the topic of sunflowers. (I didn't upload it to the internet. I liked practicing with it as I learned in this book... and I gotta revise while I get back into it.)

Pick a topic for the sake of practice because you'll wanna learn how to link your custom pages together in order to navigate your own site and such.

I PROMISE YOU that this will feel very satisfactory if you give this a shot!

LET THIS BE YOUR GATEWAY INTO TRULY LEARNING HOW THE TECH YOU GREW UP WITH WORKS SO THAT YOU CAN POTENTIALLY HELP THE INTERNET AS A WHOLE! BECAUSE TECH KNOWLEDGE IS MORE THAN JUST NAVIGATING AN APP!

Please consider this. Help make the internet a less shitty place. Get together with friends (in person or online) and learn together!

We are the internet!

If this coding textbook doesn’t have an enemies to lovers subplot between HTML and CSS I am going to riot.
