So I visit the Little Free Libraries near me almost everyday and- please- someone tell me-

WHAT IS THIS FUCKASS BOOK I FOUND.

WHY DID I FIND WHAT LOOKS LIKE A LEITNER IN THERE-

....I took it home of course

Punching the air rn (I have toyed with Ruin/his Monty since we got those first flash backs but I didnt post it here to prove it) /silly

Okay but. Look at me. Ruin lamenting that the Monty he knew became corrupted beyond recognition, but Monty feeling that exact same way about Ruin.

We know that Ruin's virus persona was not accurate to how the virus animatronics actually acted! They were violent and focused on killing but not over the top insane like Ruin portrayed himself to be (presumably to cope acting like he was in anyway normal would break him). And Monty noticed he was different! Expressed concern when Ruin laughed so hard he went into a coughing fit, asked about him continuously hearing voices which wasn't an issue for the others. While Ruin is watching his love turn into a one tracked mind, violent version of himself, the remnants of Monty are watching Ruin become completely unrecognizable and suffering from the virus much worse than everyone else. Was he already in an unstable state because of the merge and the virus is making that worse? Is it killing him? The tragedy of it all. Both thinking they have lost the other, Ruin unaware of and unable to give Monty the cure, Monty not realizing Ruin was perfectly fine and unwillingly might have hurt Ruin if he did.

ok yeah opposites attract and enemies to lovers is great and like when they have the different opposing color palettes and all but have you considered. when they are similar and so all the ways they are not become very obvious. when their colors complement each other and enhance the other. when they’re each other’s everything, their ride or die, whom they love unconditionally through the strife and hardships. where they’ve been with each other so long they’ve adopted traits of their partner and vice versa. when they both met as broken people and changed each other (and perhaps the world) for the better.

'She looks down again, synthetic flesh stares back at her through the shards of a thousand mirrors.

This is not her. This is not me. This is not me.

This is not me. This is not me. This is not me. This is not me. This is not me.

Who is this? Who are you? Who am i?

You are not who you think you are.' (Alt version below)

i decided to make a Maus version of that Rin art :3, im not as happy with the overlay this time (its meant to be two deer in an antler fight) but oh well. At least Maus looks good. Also, that snippet at the top is some of my own writing this time, where on Rin's one it was a thing i found on pinterest. Will i release that full piece of writing? Maybe in the future when its done. Maus' persona degredation and subsequent resurfacing Gestalt memories as a result is something that affects her more than she'd like to admit. Admitting that she's degraded far past what is ever considered "safe" for a Replika means admitting she needs to be replaced. Admitting she needs to be replaced means getting decomissioned - killed - by somebody she probably knows and trusts, probably Rin herself even. Where does "Maus" end and "She" begin? Sometimes everything blurs into one, she'll see things that arent there and never have been there and all she can do is pretend its not happening in order to save face. She wonders if the other three Kolibri's of RCF experience the same things. She wonders if they remember who they used to be, too. She figures its probably best not to remind them, if remembering has caused her this much suffering. Maus doesn't fear much. But if theres one thing that terrifies her, its the thought of death. The infinite nothingness that comes after one's life has reached its end. Its not dying itself she's scared of, really, its the eternal void of non-existance. Even if another Kolibri will be created and deployed when she's dead, even if technically they will both be identical in both body and brain, She will still be gone.

(she fears death, but i think if it werent for Rin, she would have decommissioned herself many, many cycles ago.)

dont forget, while you season the meat you, too, are being seasoned (my mom has constant basil thumb because she uses basil so much lol)

in the end, we are all just flesh waiting to be transformed

Guys, I just found out that the English equivalent to the Russian name Vasily is Basil.

Fucking Basil?!

Like, that's weirdly cute to me for some reason? It's hard to take completely seriously. Is it just me? I know that the name has very regal and religious roots, but come on. Just say it out loud right now. Sound it out with your mouth. "Bæ-sil." It sounds cute! It's something I would name a cat, not a stone-cold killer on a warpath for vengeance!

"Oh no you've done it now, you've just made yourself an enemy of the legendary marksman, Basil!"

No wonder he turned out to just be a huge dork.

Look out! Basil is comin' for ya!

[esto-es-un-error]

Oh Basil, sweet Basil. I hope he’s at peace now.

Love love love the hc of Ruin having a fucking Fight response when he's actually scared. Most of the time he's just chilling, in cases where he's not just given up thus has no need to fight, usually Ruin isn't too worried he has backup/other tools/etc. But if he actually, truly felt like he was in danger while Willing to defend his life that man will Fight with all the ferocity of a cornered animal and the experience of someone who's been in hundreds of scraps before.

Because he has! He spent decades in a dimension where the world was decimated by mindlessly violent robots! Did you see how fucked up he was??? That's not normal wear n tear he got that from physical struggles! (either the humans he was forced to hunt or other bots for violent hierarchy reasons which is the more fun option imo) It's not something Ruin enjoys, he doesn't like resorting to using his bare claws in such a barbaric manner, but he can and will do it if necessary. Or if you just trigger him by doing something extremely stupid and Rude unprompted like poke at his vulnerable wires he'll whip around to claw at you despite himself.
