so. i made a gnome generator
thank you to everyone who supplied me with gnome names (i am still accepting more in my ask box if you have one you'd like to share with the class)! i have been learning basic html stuff and have used my meager knowledge to create a clunky, yet functional, gnome generator. the gnome and their stats will change upon refreshing the page, but you can click the gnome gname button as many times as you like.

MAKE UR GNOME TODAY!

Sam: "Look at me. Hey- look at me a second. I know. I know you're tough. I know how strong you are. You have every right to be proud of that. But being able to handle somethin' doesn't mean you should have to. Least of all when I'm right here trying to help. Please let me help. If not for you then for me, because I don't like knowin' you're hurtin', especially when there's somethin' I can do about it."

I think I may have come up with the best worst tma time travel “fix-it” au (imho)
Inspired by Ketakoshka's 'dread spawn' idea in their dread child jon series, Dribbledscribbles' origin story for the dread powers and extinction entity interpretation in their extinction!jon fic (and some more of the latter in their post-eyepocalypse fic too), as well as my own love for making unholy (aka fun) fusions of things and sandboxing eldritch interactions with the 'mundane' . . .
. . . I have created a post-canon, Somewhere Else, time travel ""fix-it"" story that I think might be unique (at least I've never seen any fics like it– but if I'm wrong then please please share the link!! or dm me if it's your own work hehe but no pressure!!)
(mag 160+ spoilers after this point!)
(i'm about to wax poetics here (hopefully coherently)—so you can read the story-ramble OR you can scroll to the TL;DR at the bottom to skip it & spoilers to read the nutshell & see if you're interested :3)
so get this...
The big Change happens right? But this time the Extinction is a bigger player in the game than canon, and ultimately deeply marks Jon throughout the eyepocalypse.
So when the finale happens, since Jon is now connected to the epicenter of the whole show, his 'death' and the panopticon's destruction has the simultaneous effect of baiting the Dread Powers into the Hole (via his voice in the spools of tape)– and also killing everyone trapped by the Dread Powers in the world via Jon the walking detonator thanks to being entrenched in the Extinction's influence. —Combining both his best and worst plans and realizing his worst nightmare: killing everyone and spreading the Powers to an unknown number of worlds to wreak even more havoc.
How did this happen?
Simple—but first some backstory for context.
The Extinction was more of a 'lurker', much less "outgoing" than its 'siblings'. And when it was "grandiose", well. . . it tended to leave no survivors. Thus its unrecognition by those like Robert Smirke or Jürgen Leitner.
To go back even further, the Dread entities were originally one cohesive entity with many faces and limbs. Its faces reflected the same developmental complexity as the sources of their manifestation. So those with the most diverse species feeding them held the widest capacities. Namely: the Hunt, End, and Extinction. But being a singular entity, it didn't mean much.
But as human species' family lines develop and grow more complex cognitive ability, more esoteric Dreads developed, and more faces become more complex. And the Extinction was right there from the beginning as more species died out one by one. Quietly. (...maybe? 👀)
Over time humans discovered the Powers and bonded with them, then started to classify them. From here, the Dread entity fragmented into Dread entities.
They developed their own 'consciousnesses' distinct from the hive 'mind' they once were. And, eventually, sapience. Self-awareness. Desires. Personalities. But they were still connected, part of the 'system'.
The Extinction and the Web (newer, but always sapient) are a quirky pair, the Web seeking control over everything and the Extinction seeking ultimate entropy and change upon its catastrophe.
It's hard to distinguish the Extinction exactly, its work misidentified for others with few under its own unique umbrella. Things 'unique' to it get missed due to being a misnomer and not getting clocked. (But that is the nature of the Dread Powers after all.. being a fragmentation of their original singular mass.)
...
The Extinction represents the fear of disaster that will bring about the end of everything—everything you know, love, need to survive. Everything you built, worked for, hoped for. The destruction of stories and of life, of the very history written by your land—your home.
Your community. Your society. Your species.
You.
Annihilated in totality.
The Extinction represents the fear of those that come after you to replace you—worse than you, different from you. Leaving you and your history and stories (the driver of your continued existence) forgotten forever. The fear of life moving on after you, ignorant and apathetic. Your story meaningless, irrelevant.
Your community's story. Your society's story. Your species' story.
Your story.
Erased and written over.
The Web represents the fear of being controlled, fate being out of your hands—by malevolent authorities out of reach, by abusive companions or relatives, by invisible forces far beyond the human comprehension. Spinning, winding, twisting, pulling each decision in your life made for you. Until destruction of the self by your own hand.
Your struggle for change futile. Your feet following the same path. Your fate determined for you.
You forfeit control—your feet march you to your bitter demise.
The Web represents the fear of being conspired against. Scheming, plotting, planning your downfall. The loss of everything you hold dear, worked for, bled for. Spinning, twisting, scripting lies about you. Your credibility falls to pieces, your world shatters, and your story distorts.
You are kept alive by the spreading of your story. And the people have decided to trust the manufactured tale.
You are forgotten—twisted into an image of something wrong.
...
Sometimes they're at odds. Where one seeks to manipulate the threads of everything endlessly, the other seeks to destroy it all so thoroughly, with such finality, as to mutate it– the schemes, the pawns, the gameboard itself.
Sometimes they're complementary. Where you watch as you lose everyone you cared for one by one, spiraling down a path darker into entropy, the irreversible nightmare, and wondering if you ever really had free will in the first place– if anyone did.
What if the end for you really was just another game to them? What if this wasn't their first round? What if you're just the next step in the grand scheme, larger than even your own universe?
Alright, now with that out of the way, let's bring back the question.
How did the Extinction change Jon, and how did this cause the altered result of the finale?
The Web has been there since the near beginning, pulling Jon along and guiding him to his next milestone in the plot. She had known the world would come to an end one way or another, and wanted to bring it about on her own terms so that she—they all—could escape it.
So when the Web saw what the Eye was doing, she had an idea. So she aided their acolytes, seeing her sibling as the perfect way to bring all of them together for the final step. And the Web set her own card onto the board: Jon.
Jon had a natural disposition for the Eye; from stubborn curiosity to the reckless pursuit for answers to even the coldest cases. Whether he knows it or not, his mind is a gaping maw for horrible knowledge—chasing after experiences disguised as answers to his burning questions so dreadful they leave scars on him like sigils of a looming doom.
While he has no affinity for the Web's machinations, he is still hers. She has no issue with guiding agents from across the court, she knows how to share. Especially when it benefits her. Jon archives each event, every little detail, with such care and readiness that he makes the perfect vessel to pull them in—to guide them out. He'd flourish best as her tool in the Watcher's sphere.
After the Watcher's Crown and the Dread Powers came into the world, the Extinction started to make its presence known. It seeped into other Domains and fed on the people's dread for permanent catastrophic change, on their fear of ruin and total desctruction. And as Jon traversed them and lived through their fear, so was he marked by the Extinction.
It seeped into his skin like oil and burned through his veins like acid. It tainted his trails with the radioactivity of human hubris and greed, twisting and mutating both the mundane and Dreadful as he passed. It closed its grasp on him with the tightness plastic rings and infected his Perceived routes with the stench of mountainous landfill and the thickness of city smog.
The Web and the Extinction had a complex relationship, but in this moment they guided the Archivist in synchronous song like a soldier being led to his final mission: dropping the nuclear bomb.
Did Jon know?
...
No.
The twines of manipulation layer labyrinthine over everything, above and below and through every angle and dimension. Even the Nigh-Omniscient Antichrist and his All-Knowing God will never fathom its depths.
He might never know that he helped start the Extinction's ritual: Raze the Earth.
Or that both the Web and the Eye knew and did nothing. (honestly, the latter's only there for the show)
So when Martin stabbed Jon and Melanie lit the gas mainline, the threads around the world snapped and the glowing light of humanity's greatest sins exploded over everything—
—and they prayed—
—and they wept—
—and the Dreads rushed out torrentially. (pulling a few strays with them)
Now for the part you were all waiting for (well I was)—the Heart of this AU
The Dread Powers and the ones who were dragged with them were transported Somewhere Else– a parallel world in a parallel universe. But they were. . . Changed from their previous/original selves.
The tag-alongs—Martin & Jon of course, but also Annabelle Cane, Oliver Banks, Simon Fairchild, and Arthur Nolan—replaced their parallels at birth, and gained partial or full amnesia to their past lives. But their personalities are altered, reflecting some aspects of their pre-finale personalities.
Except for Jon. Jon, the Pupil of the Eye, the Warhead of the Extinction, the Spools of the Web, the Archive of the Dreads and linchpin to their escape. . . was significantly destroyed in the center of the storm. He got it and so much worse—a stick so short its existence was inverted.
While they did get reach the new universe, they had to reconstruct their linchpin/Archive that they're still connected to so that his total destruction doesn't tear them apart as well (being an Extinction avatar that's now deeply connected with them, he's capable of "taking them down with him").
When Jon was reborn, he was literally thrown into the world like a meteorite, landing with an explosive blast that rendered the surrounding area a lifeless wasteland in moments. High radioactivity and a deathly curse left few flora or fauna returning before wasting away soon after. Those that 'survived' did so by being infected by the Extinction or Corruption.
It would permanently remain uninhabitable, and it would take months before the withered stillborn spawn of the sapient eldritch Dread Entities would crawl out of the jagged crater on its own, none the wiser to its tragedies.
TL;DR
The Web manipulated Jon's attempt to put a stop to the Entities' reign, utilizing the Eye's easy influence to help the Dreads escape the world and into a fresh new one before they were also destroyed in the Extinction's "Raze the Earth" ritual (set up by using Jon to weave toxic-filled veins throughout the world he was traversing that'll explode at once 'grand finale' style).
Jon, now deeply binded to the Entities' purest forms and still an Extinction time-bomb, was mostly destroyed during the trip to Somewhere Else and the Entities had to reconstruct him so his death wouldn't destroy them too. This led to Jon being reborn a near completely different being (with some of him preserved) as functionally the direct spawn of the Dread Powers, replacing his parallel counterpart from the new world.

Random question and I’m not sure if it would spoil too much if you answered but do you ever add in red herrings? I’ve been following Attollo for over a year now and I’ve had a lot of theories but im not sure if you’re purposely trying to throw us off track with some of the little hints (reading a lot of detective stories does that, forever suspicious). Either way, I’m very invested in the story and have replayed several times trying to catch things I may have missed.
I do like to keep you guessing, but I've also spoiled a lot of major plot points within the game already through the codex entries and choices! Especially the latest codex entries. You just gotta connect the dots!

Echoes of love
chapter ii. to remember— teaser
With a gentle, absentminded sweep, your fingers trace the delicate contours of your wrist, a faint dance with the pulse beneath your skin— cocooning the soul you’re gradually growing accustomed to. It is a trying task, you've found out, to no longer yearn to flee from your body, to leave the weight of your worries for your bones and flesh alone to bear.
A subtle fragrance floats in the air surrounding you— the familiar gardenia and honey tones of your sweet perfume. It is a scent you reserve for special occasions, such as this one— your first date, in three months according to the world, in more than a year for your memory.
You swiftly retrieve a mirror from your pouch, checking your appearance for the tenth time in mere minutes. Your nude lipstick is still, unsurprisingly, in place, and you smile reassuringly at your reflection. She smiles back, though sometimes you half-expect her not to. In defiance, perhaps, maybe even repulse.
The melodious chime of the café's bell captures your attention, and the man you've been awaiting finally enters. He confidently strides in, clad in a blue polo and black slacks, an evident effort poured into his appearance.
Standing before you, his warm, gleaming eyes meet yours, effortlessly melting your lingering worries. You smile at him, he beams at you.
“Did I keep you waiting?” Changbin, your date, asks as he pulls the chair adjacent to you.
“No, just in time.”

I apologize if this was already asked, but I gotta know. Does Dove turn into... well, a dove for symbolism reasons? If it's too much of a spoiler, you don't have to answer 😅
But I got 1 or 2 theories. I'll keep to myself if that's the case >:)
You're the first one to ask this actually! And even tho it dips a bit into spoiler territory, I'll answer as best as I can!
When I was first drafting Dove's backstory and abilities, I knew I wanted her to have some sort of bird transformation. There's a lot of flying the others do, so I didn't want her to be constantly left behind by Wukong during the chapters where they don't get along or rely on the disciples constantly for getting around in the sky. Plus the image of a her going from bird to human mid-air to shoot at an enemy felt so cool to me lol
I landed on making her transformation a dove when I was doing some research on Guan Yin. I remember coming across an article that mentioned how in some images, a dove flying towards her signified fecundity. After being confused and looking up the definition, I realized how well both definitions of the word (one more so than the other) line up with… hmm, let's just say they line up well with Guan Yin's relationship with Dove AND a 'catalyst' character I've yet to introduce.
The more common definition for fecundity is fertility and fruitfulness, y'know, the ability to produce new growth. This definition immediately made me think of Guan Yin's relationship to Dove and more characters from their past I won't touch on for spoiler reasons. The second definition, the ability to produce new ideas, made me think specifically of a 'catalyst' character who is responsible for uhhhh literally starting all of Dove's problems (they're not FULLY responsible, just accountable for starting the bs in the first place 🙃)
After that, I kept finding more reasons to make a dove her transformation. What really sealed it for me was that dove's can symbolize hope, and– in a way Dove doesn't fully understand– she is Guan Yin's hope. Dove represents the hope Guan Yin holds to rectify a wrong her disciple is (currently) unaware of.
Dove's are also known for being symbols of peace, which really lines up with her ability to soothe minds– but also makes for some fun irony considering how aggressive and deceitful she can be at times. She's a canadian goose in dove's feathers lol

soo i was wondering what are your favourite and/or least favourite traits in scarlet hollow??
hey, thank you for asking! i don't particularly Dislike any traits, so i think i'll just list them from Most to Least favorite?
Keen Eye - i like this one a lot because it allows you to have more insight and empathetic dialogue options. i just like treating everyone nicies as much as possible <3 yay
Talk to Animals - i think it's pretty self-explanatory! it's great. you get to talk to animals! meet dustin!
Powerful Build - i love this one for the chapter 1 save and also just that it's really funny how you can eat tabitha's repulsive leftovers without consequences. Amazing
Book Smart - much like keen eye, i love the attention to detail this provides and also i REALLY love the chapter 3 save. that totally blew me away! it was the last trait i used after trying various combos and honestly it was sooo worth it. i love saving tabitha yayyy <3
Mystical - i like how much more you can see with mystical, though it's not super high on my list of favorites because there's no save for it yet! i'm really excited to see what kind of potential it has to affect the story!
Hot - i like the save for this trait and the bonuses it has with romance, but it doesn't resonate with me Too Much. i'm not a reesemancer type (hi i don't hate reese but i'm a lesbian lesbianing) so i guess the hot save just doesn't impact me as much as it might for some!
Street Smart - again i don't really know what the save for this will be, so i don't have too many feelings about it yet! i do think it's Fun but i'd like to see what it more it can offer in the future..... the pinkerton achievement is nuts though!

do you have a name for this face a cat makes, when it's smelling something interesting (aka the Flehmen response)?
in our family, we call it "frizzle face". i don't remember why, but it just sounds right. today my sister's husband asked her, "why do you call it that?" and she was like "uh that's what it's called..." but then she found 0 results for it on google 💀
then she asked me why we call it that and. now i'm wondering if anyone else has a name for this 😂

xero. stares at you. this question has been plaguing me for like a week now and i need your input. how sentient do you think v1 and v2 are. i will give you my rhoughts after you answer this i have so many
Tumblr media
OUHHHH YESYESYES V1 ACTUALLY HAS LIKE A FEW PIECES OF DIALOGUE LIKE THAT IIRC. Thinking specifically about the skeleton it names Hank....
But honestly it's never occurred to me that they're both Not sentient??? Because machines as a whole have a lot of life!! Like, for example, during that same second fight, you can hit V2 with its own arm and it will immediately become enraged!! It starts both of its fights with flair. It's dramatic!!! V2 is at least sentient enough to know it conveys how badly it wants to beat V1's ass by cracking its "knuckles!!!"
V1 is less obvious because it's who we play as, but like you said, it can think!! It thinks when it fights V2 a second time, it thinks when it names a skeleton, it thinks just that little bit that definitely reads as sentient. Maybe there's a limited capacity to how much they can both think and feel (maybe something they could do normally, but have something removed or turned off to save fuel?) or maybe they're just really good at imitation, but machines as a whole are just very distinctly alive.
So, I think at the very least, they're a little sentient :]
