Oh yes, the battery is so real and having an indicator of how much percent is left would be so helpful!!
Neurotypicals: Think Autistic people are exceptionally literal.
Autistics: Describe their experiences using phrases like:
My brain feels like it’s filled with cotton laced with barbed wire, it’s not safe for me to make decisions right now.
I’m entering a Wait Mode until we leave.
Just looking at that rotten food makes my skin feel slimy.
Neurotypicals: Assume the Autistics are using metaphorical language to exaggerate common experiences.

nothinggg better than torturing an emotionally repressed character until every single trauma they've ever refused to process starts spilling uncontrollably out of the cracks. like a matryoshka doll situation of repressed trauma and baby you better believe i'm going in there with a hammer

Some past 1x headcanons (theories if we’re stretching it) aaaand u can have some art to go along with it :)
1: At first 1x was made out of boredom. Telamon wanted to make a little assistant of his own, but ended up making a child. Sure the child was atleast already 7-8 and would never cry or want for anything but it was a child nonetheless. Telamon had to feed it, house it, water it and the such, which was borrrring. Taking responsibility sucked.
2. 1x was made as a blank slate, hence they’re basic appearance. Didn’t really have a personality of their own for a while and was just there to run errands (see figure 1) for Telamon. Most people in the Roblox HQ knew him as the little guy that unfortunately has to put up with Telamon’s shit.
Tumblr media
3: 1x was basically self sufficient. Sure He lived with Telamon but he made himself meals from anything left in Telamon’s fridge, got himself/ helped Telamon get ready in the morning. Brighteyes would give them Robux to go get themselves treats from time to time (see figure 2). She thought he was a good kid.
Tumblr media
4: It wasn’t entirely child labour. Telamon gave him breaks but what was there to do? 1x had no friends unless you counted the adults he worked with. No kids his age to play with he knew, no school, no nothing.
5: This is more into theory territory I think? 1x isn’t just literally Telamon’s/shedletsky’s hatred, but a representative for something he hated, being mature and responsible. Telamon prided himself on being the admin who did whatever, whenever. An unpredictable force of nature. But having to take care of something? It felt like shackles to him. So maybe he left it in the Banlands so he’d never have to think of it again. Might change this later though, seems a bit cruel.
(Got the last headcanon theory with the help of my friend @clo-v3r0929 <3)
Tumblr media
Not sure yet what I headcanon happened to him to become hatred and stuff, and I don’t wanna go all out cause I hate being wrong. /silly
So here (figure 3) are so,e lazy doodles I did.
Thank you for reading my yap session.

We're all alone, walking in twilight
The night‘s been long, and so many have fallen
Feel no remorse, light will be breaking
Our freedom is worth it all

even dogs pass the mirror test
#hello again everyone. how's it going#isat loop#in stars and time#isat fanart#in stars and time fanart#isat#lucabyteart#isat spoilers#so. had this idea Before getting my hands on the artbook and being validated. literally have a voice note from 4:30am on the 8th where#i frantically noted down this just horrid horrid horrid caption because i'd been musing on the sasasap Dress line all day i suppose#just kind of rotating in my brain the way any kind of first time trying on new clothes for them would be .#just absolutely mental breakdown material and not one i think would be recovered from quickly. they hate being in their own skin#like. a lot? like a lot. the collateral of any kind of transfemme read was barely in my mind until it ended up relevant again while i was#actively working on this. because christ that's a bad combo. 2x different forms of body dysphoria in one. maybe even 3x somehow#plus any scenario where they get clothes is... likely gifted. something they react viciously negatively to in game and i doubt#would improve thereafter. just a veritable katamari of disgust and self-loathing#like i was mostly just thinking abt how a lot of our collective depictions of loop being alienated from their body are rather abstract#in a body horror way mostly. on account of loop being more of a metaphor than a person half the time. so i think i wanted to depict#something closer to just. a human level of body dysphoria. no focus on the whole duplicate thing just... raw disgust for the self#but with the addition of recent discussion and playing ball more with the she/her loop and transfem loop angle...#scenario of leaning into femininity to try throw off suspicion on who they are PLUS realising they might want that PLUS the party#trying to use this to bond with them PLUS body dysphoria PLUS new!gender dysphoria PLUS the usual revulsion for wanting and desire#like. that is a catastrophic combination . not coming out of that one without it getting worse for a few weeks thereafter#that's a real lash out at everyone around them and then recede in shame type breakdown. which im sure looks interesting from#the party's pov because jesus christ that touched a nerve something awful (<- they only have half the context AT BEST)#. so . there's your free scenario to ponder on if you'd want to. seeing as ive done a picture without a shitload of words on it for once#ALSO don't get smart with me in the tags about the mirror test being an absolutely ass test in most regards re: self-awareness#or that things like minnows pass it. i'm a fellow pedant dont worry. it's just that minnow doesn't really have the same ring as dog yknow?#this is supposed to be like an absolutely excruciatingly self loathing thought spoken aloud of a caption. it's pithy and cruel on purpose#and more than a little inspired by (reblogged yesterday) liminal space's 'there is no other dog. it's just you'

im not seeing enough love for delta slim. there's a large part of the narrative - that tragedy and hope are two sides of the same coin - which is expressed by him and his dedication to still performing.
performing the blues both because of and in spite of all the things that have happened to him. he's introduced as someone we're supposed to feel sorry for (his drunken state, his fear of his own mortality, the tragedy and brutality he's seen) and yet!!!! and yet!!!! hes still clinging to his passion with bloodied fingertips!!! still playing, still making music!!!
i can't remember smoke's exact line, but it's something like 'I've met plenty of musicians, but I've never met a happy one'. in a way, that's true of all the musicians in the film (pearline is implied to be unhappy in her marriage, the twins' father is stated to have been an awful man, etc). it's especially true for delta slim...but it's not true for sammie, not really, not when it's all but stated outright that sammie feels trapped and stifled by everything except music.
delta slim sees that passion, and he gives his life for sammie in the hope that the music sammie makes will live on. that despite everything that happens, he'll survive and he'll keep playing. he'll cling to that passion with bloodied fingers.

These all work for the story, and good to know most folks still see what Gibson intended (though the runner-up might be just as cool in a fresh way).
One of the all-time best opening lines
