#i might be stupid chat...

God I don't want to be too harsh because I know nobody means any harm by it but the way people analyze the Voices drives me crazy sometimes. Not even in the sense that I disagree with what's being written, but more in the sense of how these analyses treat the Princess.

I feel like in a certain section of the fandom there's this reluctance to admit that the Voices aren't always "positive" (for lack of a better term) characters? You'll see people give lip service to the idea that "it's good for a character to have flaws!" and then turn around and try to excuse their worst moments (and it's like. You don't have to do that. You can still like them).

And one of the consequences of this type of analysis is that the way the player's and the voice's actions affect the Princess is downplayed. I have seen analyzes of Happily Ever After which barely even mention the Princess, because they're so fixated on defending Smitten. I've seen people write off entire chapters as "bad" just because they didn't like the way the Voices were acting (with, again, barely a mention of the Princess). The Greys and the Witch chapters are arguably where both the Player and the Voices are at their worst, but fans will still twist around to make the Princess the sole villain of the story.

I don't know. I hate making these kinda posts because I don't want to shame anyone from writing/drawing something they love. But as a big fan of the Princess it's really saddening to see her pushed aside in favor of the male characters.

-> Elliot giggles a little louder and wraps his arms around Chance's neck, quiet yet happy little noises spill from between his lips as he leaned into the other's affection. "I like when you call me stuff like that! Your little nicknames put butterflies in my stomach...!" -> There was a loving little look in those cloudy gray eyes of his. Although it was a little more intense, which made sense given the new personality he's sporting at the moment. "I'm so happy to be yours, Chancey!"

"Chancey....!" -> Oh! It's Elliot! - @pizza-party-support

“Oh, hey sweetcheeks!”

Chance replied, though there was an audible hint of fear in his tone. What was he meant to say in a situation like this?! Seeing your boyfriend suddenly swap personalities with a cultist was extremely unnerving, even if he was friends with said cultist.

So this is a sequel to this post mainly because there was some crucial details in the finale that I missed, but this is specifically going to be focusing on Parrot rather than Evbo, although Evbo is still going to be part of this whole theory. Lets start.

[Transcript Start] Evbo: -My iron sword, so their swords will never break. Thats why I have to get out of here, so that I can prove to people that there is a way out! Obviously, to do that, I need to make it to level 4. But its a bit tough to do that, since theres no way to rank up apparently. Parrot: ...Wait, what do you mean theres no way to rank up? Evbo: Oh yeah! I probably should've mentioned that every time I try to rank up to a golden sword- Woah, getting up close and personal. But..yeah, theres no water at the bottom, I've died-

[End of transcript.]

This exchange to me, at first, read as rather inconspicuous. Other players have killed Evbo before, or straight up hit him. So it didn't particularly click with me that this was something to pay attention to, but it was a bit weird considering how Parrot is first characterized. His whole introduction with Evbo and Tabi, and him talking about the iron sword layer being peaceful, and trying to protect Evbo's immortal identity, being depressed and isolating himself in a mansion.. It seems odd that this would suddenly shift when the situation becomes "Theres no way out" and him almost getting violent here, like every other character in the series. But he shows restraint in his anger rather than lashing out. Good right? Well... Next time we "meet" Parrot the implications are less than ideal. We learn he is a bow, and that he attempted to tell Evbo this, but the message about Tabi's betrayal got through to him too late. Then something else happens. Evbo, post betrayal and probably wanting to let off some of the stress that has most definitely been bubbling under the surface, Kills the entire iron sword layer. Or atleast very heavily implied that he did, along with Parrot's help. In Evbo's words, he "Killed all the people that were against me." which could either mean like, two people or the entire layer, and I don't think Evbo was particularly keeping track of the "bad" iron swords that came into his cell depending on how populated that layer actually is. The way someone would typically twist this, is that Parrot is willing to do terrible things for his friend's safety and comfort. Which is fine, but hear me out. Considering that Parrot got very close to snapping at Evbo back in episode 4, and was pretty absent throughout the arc where Evbo trains until he gets to the diamond sword layer, and then out of nowhere, helps with a murder spree despite him being one of the more peaceful residents? One that doesn't appear to get into fights, nor is seen going into Evbo's cell for kills? Evbo lets something slip near the end right after describing the massacre that he and Parrot did together. Parrot says:

"I will do my best to make a difference in this world."

Now, this sounds good in theory. Great, even! But consider the stuff we learned from him up until this point, the tiny details that you could easily miss or disregard entirely. Now, what does that phrase imply? Especially with the surrounding context being Evbo and Parrot killing a layer together?

What difference does he intend to make in this world? We don't get more than what Evbo tells us in the narration, but he does mention that he isn't willing to see Parrot just yet, and needs to piece his feelings towards him. What went down between these two that went unseen that left Evbo not wanting to talk to him let alone see him? Fishy, fishy, fishy.

[swoleas]

idk if it's just the worry over my loved ones who are rn in the line of fire between Israel and Iran, but my fandom paranoia is back

That pesky feeling that some of my mutuals only follow me because they're too non-confrontational to soft block me but would never reblog my ocs or anything so nobody can see that they still interact with me, because their much "cooler" mutuals hate me and warn others against following me

99% unfounded tho im sorry :( (except for the people in fandom who do have me blocked despite me never speaking to them or interacting with them)

I was watching Creature Commandos the other day and I keep wondering if this was a coincidence or not.

CHAT AM I INSANE OR IS IT REALLY JUST A REFERENCE TO HIM? HELP?

Random ass pic right here that I've used as a reaction image with close friends. This is the same guy

I use this image more as to what he actually looked like since (allegedly, I could be wrong) the painting that is most famously known as Vlad the Impaler was painted after his death and was (again, allegedly, I need to verify my sources again) painted by the Ottomans, who I'm sure did not like this dude, to put it lightly. So here's your dumb historical tid-bit by someone who was really bored and ended up going down a rabbit hole which is actually a YouTube and Facebook account called Corpus Draculianum.

Read the tags if you want, it's basically a statement to my mental processing.

This thing that I spent much too long on

[bonnetfulloflowers]

The necklace

I sometimes wonder where family heirlooms come from. What exactly decides the significance? How long must someone keep an object for it to become special? My grandmother is old, but not frail enough to stop moving yet, and she has one too many things. Stacks and stacks of junk waiting on a tipping point called balance line her closet, her garage, her unused upstairs bedrooms. When we were at her house one summer, she pulled out a box of costume jewelry. Nothing too expensive or significant lain in it. But riffling through it, my sister and cousin’s hands crowding in, I found a silver star. Never once since then did I take it off, and I suppose that’s what makes significance. How much something matters to you.
