YOU: The third thing you learn, living with Kim, is that there are many holes in the world. More than just the one in the Dolorian church in Martinaise, or the one in your own brain.

INLAND EMPIRE: They’re everywhere. Scattered all over Elysium, on every isola.

YOU: Are there any holes in the Pale?

LOGIC: Impossible. There is only the Pale.

SHIVERS: There is one in the Pox, outside the hospital, deep inside a large circular stone fountain. You and Jean Vicquemare used to go there sometimes and sleep off benders in the sun when you were supposed to be on patrol, sprawled on your backs on the warm stone.

ENCYCLOPEDIA: “There’s a hole in the world at the bottom of this fountain,” you used to tell Jean. “That’s why you can sober up without a headache here. It just absorbs it all.”

“Fascinating,” Jean would murmur, arm thrown over his eyes against the sun.

RHETORIC: There is a hole in the world in Mirova in a bazaar stall crammed full of things marketed as antiques - cheap and dusty old crap to be sold to those who are gullible.

CONCEPTUALIZATION: Or to those who are capable of starting anew.

VISUAL CALCULUS: There are a few things in the stall that are valuable or precious.

INLAND EMPIRE: In the dusty back of the stall is a box inland with bone and ivory shards. It is beautiful and terrible, gleaming in the dim light. She walks past this stall every week, several meters away from the hole in the world, going to market with her new husband.

HALF LIGHT: You should call her and warn her.

INLAND EMPIRE: There is a hole in the world in Thylakos-by-Pisantic, where thousands of years ago a sacrificial altar was built - at first stone, and then, as the centuries passed, marble - growing larger and larger every year, in concentric rings, as if sequestering the hole at its center further and further away from human eyes.

ESPRIT DE CORPS: There is also one in the Jamrock Public Library.

YOU: The second thing you learn, living with Kim, is that there is an awful lot about the natural world you don’t know.

ENCYCLOPEDIA: You learn about snowstorms, thunderstorms, lightning storms. Pale storms, which spread across the whole city like a fog, little snatches of memory oozing through the streets like rain. Long-lost conversations in old accents, half-heard voices. Sometimes, visuals - a motor carriage racing through the streets that you jump to avoid, that you find out, standing foolishly on the curb, isn’t actually there. You spot a couple making love against a wall at an active crime scene, but when you go over to tell them off, your hand goes right through them to brick.

ESPRIT DE CORPS: Occasionally, the RCM gets called out for screams, the sound of shattering glass, gunshots. There is never anyone there.

INTERFACING: During the Pale storms, the power will go out in the precinct, the radio waves will go on the fritz, and dogs start howling.

YOU: You learn about other things in the natural world, too. Like brain-eating amoebas, because Jean suggests that you have had one, at some point in your recent life.

ESPRIT DE CORPS: Gottlieb assures you that you could not possibly have had a brain-eating amoeba, since, during his entire tenure at the precinct, you have never shown any possible inclination of having anything they would be remotely interested in.

HALF LIGHT: That’s a relief.

“Kim,” he says, and there’s a rustle as he moves, a darkness coming between you and the light seeping through the blinds. You think he’s leaning up on his elbow, over you. “Kim, I don’t think I remember how to jerk off.�� And, well, it’s not the strangest come-on you’ve ever received.

I know I already talked about the Disco Elysium werewolf AU but I just need to add on that werewolves would fit sooooo well within the universe. Like, we already got stick bugs. Why not bring in a few good boys? <3

Anyways, here’s some headcanons for this a Werewolf Disco Elysium AU:

- Kim Kitsuragi is a werewolf, having become one after being attacked during a case, potentially early on in his career.

- The werewolf that attacked him was his second confirmed kill, though the circumstances around it are cloudy at best — especially in the paperwork. The paperwork implied that he was attacked by an animal, opened fire on the animal, could not recover the carcass, and later opened fire on an unrelated assailant. However, both him and the medical personnel inspecting his injuries were unable to identify the animal that caused the injury at the time of the attack.

- Transformations take place in two different ways. New Moons are ‘conscious’ transformations where one retains their mind and consciousness. Full Moons are ‘rampage’ transformations where one does not retain their consciousness and acts on animal instinct, typically going a bit further the morning compared to New Moons. Most werewolves — including Kim — are able to manage New Moons at their own home of residence while many — including Kim — tend to isolate for Full Moons.

- Kim has a very precise process of handling his transformations. For New Moon/conscious transformations, he will take some fairly heavy painkillers and sleep medication, prepare a change of clothes and a bath for when he is back to normal, and transform within the bathroom; typically sleeping it off due to the medication. Usually he attends work the next day after these transformations, despite often looking somewhat awful.

- For Full Moons/rampage transformations, his process is similar but a little more intricate in that he will freeze some meat with the sleep medication tucked inside, drive off to a small abandoned cabin in the countryside that he spotted on a case once, place the meat between two ceiling beams precariously so that it will fall once it has thawed enough, and transform there — also occasionally taking the time to patch up the cabin further to make it more sturdy. So far, this has worked well for him and while he has managed to get out of there a couple of times, the location is far enough away from civilization that he has not injured anyone. He usually plans ahead to have an excuse to be absent from work the following day.

- Outside of the werewolf that infected him, Kim has not met any other werewolves and vaguely believes he could be the only other one, though logically he knows that’s unlikely and that they’re just very rare.

- Kim is a bit on the smaller side as werewolves go, putting him in the fortunate position to come off very easily as a mildly large and scrawny but otherwise ordinary wolf if need be. His fur would be the same color as his hair with any little scars from over the years appearing in the same general spots on the werewolf form.

- Harry would be fully into the whole werewolf thing, or at least Electrochemistry would. Kim would not be interested in experimenting with that for a number of reasons.

- Harry would keep his distance during Full Moons — at Kim’s explicit request — but I imagine he’d always manage to find his way to Kim’s side during the New Moon transformations. Kim would likely keep it to himself how much he quietly appreciates that.

- Kim and Harry would soooo be the type to accidentally get involved in a case involving another werewolf and Harry would be soooo at risk of getting infected — potentially by Kim himself if the events were to play out right.

- If anyone ever suspected that one of them was a werewolf, I just know Harry would be the one to play up literally every aspect about himself to try and take the assumption. He’d wear being the assumed werewolf of the two as a badge of honor.
