Made up ecstasin: metaphor for music
Will explain music industry by metaphor. Imagine a world were wonder product ecstasin arrives.
Is legal and used widely with no side effects! And quickly becomes go to especially for parties. But people enjoy in public areas and even tolerate in elevators.
Mostly used at home though and among friends or with intimate partners.
And ecstasin most definitely was loved as a more pure way to get desired vibe versus other things like food or drugs.
But most of the ecstasin considered potent was produced by a few manufacturers. Big corporations churned out for the masses.
Other variations were available but were called indie.
And with the big corporations there were concerns they often cut product for profits to levels where the high was harder to find.
The vibe was much derivative and originality was rare except with indie.
And there was concern they tried to freeze out other distributors especially indie.
Then? New machines arrived that could manufacture ecstasin for anyone widely. Were they new hope? Or new problem for quality?

saying kim dokja is doomed by the narrative discounts both the hard work the narrative is putting into saving him and also all the hard work he is putting into dooming himself. the narrative is actively begging him to live happily with his loved ones and he's turning destruction of the self into a competition with a dedication that even dance moms would consider extreme
#anyway i have lots of thoughts about how orv interacts with narratives#both the metaphor and the literal intersecting and overlapping narratives experienced in the story#and about how the narrative loves kdj. and it wants him to live & he's the one standing in his own way#it's just a damn good novel#pat.txt#omniscient reader's viewpoint

((feel free to request DR/UT characters in my asks / the comments / reblogs / whatever btw, I plan on doing a lot of the main cast but if there's anybody niche or specific I'd love to hear it. If there's actually an interest in my dumb little AU designs I'll keep just making them until I'm bored))
#welcome back to my mind palace#yes all of these do have unique lineart because I am Crazy ty for noticing#rather than give the lightners costumes I've decided that the dark world directly changes their physical apperances#bc they don't really wear clothes in this AU anyways#All the changes are pretty obvious but I've tried to make them somewhat metaphorical/narrative too#anyone who can spot all the differences wins#anyways tag time#dragonrune#kris dreemurr#susie deltarune#noelle holiday#berdly deltarune#ralsei deltarune#suselle#dragon au#deltarune#deltarune au#ooh yuh art time#realwizardhours

okay here's my take
Xemnas: villain the narrative keeps adding complexities to because it accidentally got attached
Xigbar: egging the narrative on
Xaldin: narrative's chosen guy for disagreeing and being in a bad mood
Vexen: narrative's conflict generator (both his replica project in Days and his everything in CoM)
Zexion and Lexaeus: prey the narrative toyed with a little too much that gave the narrative some illness after being eaten (Zexion) and guy engineered to help the narrative's prey last longer (Lexaeus)
Axel and Saïx: narrative's favorite and guy doomed to be relevant forever due to his relationship to the narrative's favorite
Demyx: who fucking knows at this point. class clown
Luxord: "surprise tool to help us later" says the narrative
Marluxia and Larxene: weird things from the junk drawer that the narrative rediscovered and decided to use for an art project
#kingdom hearts#organization xiii#xemnas#xigbar#xaldin#vexen#lexaeus#zexion#saix#axel#demyx#luxord#marluxia#larxene#I HAD TO WRITE THIS POST TWICE BECAUSE I FUCKED UP POSTING IT....#anyway xaldin and lexaeus may take the background guard role now but chain of memories came first#me post#FUCK I MIXED UP TO AND TOO#NOOOOOOOOO MY REPUTATIOOOOON#also you can tell I had no creative ideas for xaldin lmao#yeah man. that’s not even a cool metaphor that’s just his narrative role

spamt sketch day 11. vacationing in burning acid
#spamton#bigshot#dailyspamt#can i b real.been holding my tongue for years but the acid theory is so fucking lame.L blatent mischaracterization of queen&swatch#gradual corruption is cooler+just fits with spamtons narrative better.purposeful punishment acid?randomAccident acid?BOTH LAME#it just doesnt FIT.this guy has isolated himself from all his friends&ignored obvious signs he was DownTheWrongPath.come on now#its puppetification all way.him losing himself slowly in both a metaphorical&literal sense is just so obvious.its the obvious take#also hilarious that any remaining plausibility for the 'he just always looked like that' theory DIED in ch3.fucking nuh uh!!!!#also apologies if thiscomes off as confrontational or something.im trying to be funny#i DontActuallyCare if u portray ur MindVersion of spamton w/ the acid theory its got the 'ItsAllFineMan' seal of approval

no more celestial body symbolism. embrace fast and furious casting headcanons. take my hand. let's watch all 10 films together so we can accurately assign characters to previous life series winners. I believe Fast X: Part 2 (releasing 2025) can become a crane wives situation if we do our best
#life series#trafficblr#traffic smp#this is a lie but it's funny so#i DO really think that fandoms getting into really unrelated media as a group is extremely funny#but actually the symbolism to me is there's a car in space now#bc i do really like the celestial symbolism#and on a deeper level. maybe tying ourselves to consistent motifs and metaphors in an improv series will not increase our enjoyment of it#as more and more of these come out i think it has to be okay to separate them narratively#but after we all watch the last day and furious movie together 🧡 🧡 🧡

Use your head, artilleryman. This railroad is my bread and butter. My veins! Blowing things up... It doesn't matter. The inquisitor will come.

Something something, Harley holding a lighter
Something something, the Bigger Bodies emerging from the wall of flames behind him
Something something, the Prototype's shadow looming from behind which is actually Elliot's ghost haunting Harley
Something something, "you were always the one who started the fire"
Something something, sins of the father, the cycle of abuse, "did I make you proud?", petty revenge plots, "Poppy Playtime is a metaphor for generational trauma", yadda yadda yadda
#you can use this as a prompt if you want#i've been rotating this in my brain for too long#poppy playtime#harley sawyer#elliot ludwig#the prototype#experiment 1006#huggy wuggy#mommy long legs#catnap#yarnaby#doey the doughman#bunzo bunny#pianosaurus#dogday#cycle of abuse#sins of the father#generational trauma#narrative and metaphors#cross rambles#cross is a writer

And then along comes this noise. All day long, this relentless noise.
OH YEAH AND HOW DOES THAT FEEL, DOCTOR????

#i've said it before and i'll say it again#the drums are a metaphor of a more emotionally-intellectual negative drive0#than either a purely external torture or an auditory hallucination#so yeah#anyway read a negative review of tld and i thinj the fundamental difference#between the chibnall and davies writing is that the latter makes sure to throw a grain of narrative salt into the superficial reading#yes the doctor went on a rant at conrad - and? then? the? story? proved? him? wrong?#yes alan in an internet misogynist - and? has? to? go? under? machine's? radar? that? he? wants? out????#compared to kerblam where you have to see just how much mixed up the objects of criticism are0#to even consider there's something wrong... yeah#basically rtd never crosses the preaching line for me#dw spoilers#lucky day#doctor who#fifteenth doctor#simm!master#the master#rtd

crucial to the rosie/vox/alastor dynamic to me is that at any given moment, one of them is getting harassed by the other two. rosie and alastor pretend not to know what modern slang means to drive vox crazy. vox and alastor will not shut the fuck up singing showtunes at 3am while rosie's trying to sleep. rosie and vox cyberstalk alastor for shits and giggles to see how long it'll take him to get fed up and blow up the voyeurscope they have tailing him
#time has changed the metaphor is as close to canon as possible because that's how i wanted to write that specific narrative‚#but every other iteration of pre-canon staticradiorose that i think about looks like this instead bc i think they should get to be#silly and deranged queerplatonic besties together#vox#alastor#rosie#hazbin hotel#staticradiorose#radiorose#staticrose#radiostatic#rosemedia#op

Thinking about ghostly Aradia......
#it's about the depression metaphor its about literally haunting the narrative it's about sad spooky girls it's about intangibility#or it's about drawing sad spooky girls. I dunno I just work here#aradia megido#homestuck#hs#my art
