#Omori thoughts

[lilac-gold]

you ever think about how, in headspace, all omori seems to do is fight? he has no lines, his fears serve as an obstacle to the gang's main mission, and in black space, he doesn't seem to react in the slightest to any of basil's deaths. he's a constant presence in-game; plenty of people know him, he's the "main character" of headspace even though he hasn't done nearly as much as hero seems to have, and all of his friends care about him greatly. and yet, omori does nothing most of the time except hurt. in boss rush, he hurts his friends and mari too. he kills the sprout moles and takes their show tickets without mercy. he's just there, even though it seems the story could work perfectly without him.

all while sunny locks himself away, consumed by the guilt and grief of mari's death, avoiding his friends completely as he retreats inside of his own head.

Back when I first played omori, I hated black space. Not cuz I thought it was a bad part of the game, but because I was genuinely terrified by it. I wanted it to be over as soon as possible. But, now that I’ve replayed omori I’ve come to really appreciate black space. Black space it’s horrible and weird and unexplainable, off and so so… just wrong. But, that’s kind of beautiful..? Just, the raw anger and sadness of grief regret and trauma that is just so gorgeous, in a awful and twisted way. And I think it’s the fact that black space manages to capture very specific emotions as well, the Ost really bringing it all together. Glade for example, it’s a incredibly depressing song. The somber sound of the keys makes it feel like your just begging for everything back. Fleur makes me feel like I’m so terrified by the thought of something, I feel my tears but they won’t come out and I can’t look away. August/water kind of makes me think about trying to remember really early childhood memories. but when I think about them, I can’t remember what they were anymore. They feel so fever dreamy..

I could go on.. I just think black space is incredible. Numbers is terrifying though and I don’t want to listen to it all all lmao

after actual years of starting and stopping and then starting again, i have managed to finally finish omori. i definitely wouldn’t have been able to handle this game’s ending at any earlier part of my life so i’m kind of glad i waited until now. i have so many thoughts but honestly all i can think about is the absolute traumatizing tragedy basil and sunny went through, the writing makes so much sense and god if i went through that at the age if 12 i probably would’ve also become a shut in for years as well.

i also can’t help but remember the last time i really tried ti finish the game, i was on day 2 and a few people i knew that loved the game mentioned that they honestly thought basil was an annoying character and didn’t like him at all but didn’t say why because of spoilers. now that im done i honestly cannot disagree with that sentiment more, he sticks out to me so much as a sad figure in this tale as much sunny is just in a different way and he is a severely traumatized child so idk seeing him as annoying makes me a bit sick.

will be back later with more thoughts.

it is apparently not normal to not utilize the emotions system while playing omori?? i know how it works, i just like keeping everybody neutral… i dont really like the effects of any of the emotions

Do i have any omori followers on here, do u guys think this song is as good for omori as i do cuz i think it slaps

[sixpossumsinatrenchcoat]

something i like about omori is that Headspace is riddled with secrets and Something’s design is intensely thoughtful in that way that feels instantly retroactively obvious, AND (afaik??) omori’s knife has no connection to that night whatsoever. sunny just thinks knives are cool. knife boy. as a grown-up knife kid this is the rep i deserve

(edit: it feels important to clarify that i did not grow out of being a knife boy, i just grew up. now i am a knife Man)

hey so i can't stop thinking about how perfect a song "how bad can i be" is for bossman again. it just,, works. in so many ways. i could write a full essay on this. just you wait for when i finally have a means to do digital art.

moments in time, with you 💫

a @/heromariweek comic detailing their time together in high school! (catholic school au)

SORRY THIS IS LATE AADJFSHJSKF i got this idea after seeing a similar idea (overarching comic covering a prompt week) by @/alciedoodles's serirei comic .... and when i figured out the idea the week was over =v= but at least i got this in by the late deadline!

extra under the cut:

mari first called hero her friend platonically, but eventually used it to hint that she likes him. hero is dense and didn't get it

hero wanted to confess at graduation but chickened out

hero pierced his ears + mari cut her hair bc of "heartbreak". they're so dramatic

[iss7ea]

i still see you sometimes.
