Occult Theories

by chiiyo86 on ao3

Rating: T | Category: F/M, M/M | Relationship: Lockwood/Lucy/George

AU. 1971, Inspector Montagu Barnes arrests a trio of teenagers that have broken into a church. Delusional kids claiming that ghosts are infesting the country - Barnes has met dozens of them. But the story of Anthony Lockwood and his two associates, George Karim and Lucy Carlyle, isn't one of bored kids looking for a thrill: they are pioneers, fighting to understand a problem that everyone is turning a blind eye to.

Or, what if Lockwood, Lucy and George lived during the early days of the Problem?

hi my dumbass made an OTJ and she’s tiffin v storm’s location (and now he owes me 20 dollars)

catch all the references

inhales

The closed border running down her middle: Corpus callosotomy. She can function normally (not all the commissures were cut) but as with other split-brain patients, if something happens in only one sensory hemifield she can only perceive it with the corresponding hemisphere. Define one hemifield as everything on the Norwegian/Finnish side and the other as everything on her Russian side. She has language areas in both hemispheres of equal size, but one understands/produces Russian and the other Norwegian and Finnish. Both know a smattering of words from the various Sami languages. She’s still one consciousness due to the remaining commissures.

Cultural mixing: she’s wearing a luhkka, which was invented by the Sami, but it has a similar status to the parka in that nonnatives have taken it and iterated on it. It’s by no means traditional. I put rosemaling (except instead of roses it’s pine trees and cloudberries so is it really rosemaling?? Something resembling rosemaling at least), which is an artform Norway invented, on it. The ushanka is self-explanatory. I couldn’t get Finland in there visually but know that her phone is a Nokia.

Largest population of brown bears in Norway: her ushanka and fingerless gloves were textured to resemble the fur. Her close set eyes, large irises, and body shape were also chosen to evoke bears.

Norway’s last ancient pine forest: you decide if that’s shading along the bottom of the luhkka or if that’s the silhouette of the forest. Her antlers grow leaves. Rosemaling except pine trees.

Sami reindeer herding: her antlers. The collar thing on the luhkka is reindeer fur. The buttons on the luhkka are made of antler. The flag ear tags. You’re actually supposed to mark the reindeer’s ownership through earmarks but tags are useful as an extra identification measure and also I couldn’t figure out how to convey the identities of her ‘owners’ just through cuts on her auricles. I got a few stray whumperflies drawing the tags but I don’t think she minds.

The river that is the border and also what she is named after: I just. Slapped its shape wholesale onto the luhkka.

The Finland/Norway/Russia border tripoint being the only place where three timezones meet: her watch with 3 hour hands. Norway uses GMT+1, Finland uses GMT+2, and Russia uses GMT+3.

Use of Lutheran/Orthodox churches by Norway/Russia to cement their sovereignty in the region: the crosses/strings even though luhkkas don’t have strings. The Orthodox cross is bigger because, in tiff’s words, “the Orthodox kind of did win” (all the Skolt Sami are Orthodox and they exist on both sides of the border).

Sorry so many of these are Norway specific the 1 good source I could find (other than tiff) was about Sor-Varanger specifically ;-;

the source in question:

(most of the reference images and also the colors I eyedropped onto her are from there)

the pattern for the pine tree was referenced from here:

specifically this image:

some progress pictures so you can see the corrections tiff made:

(the yellow clip things on the river were supposed to be the hydroelectric dams)

i don’t know whether to be proud or upset that i spent more time on this than i did on the bayard drawing for the thoth map:

He led her to the kitchen before dropping her hand, and Lucy gawked at the room. Most notably, the Thinking Cloth had been whisked away, and in its place was a red plaid thing that felt shockingly out of place without a mangled mess of scribbles. Sitting atop it were a handful of haphazardly placed candles — the ones they usually brought on jobs with them. They were spread across the kitchen counters as well, and were the soul source of light in the room.

All but two chairs had been removed from the kitchen table, and two place settings adorned it — topped inexplicably with pieces of toast. Steaming cups of tea sat beside them.

“What is this?” Lucy asked.

Lockwood stepped forward and pulled out a chair, motioning for Lucy to sit. Questioningly, she did, and Lockwood took the seat across from her.

He shrugged nonchalantly, but in the dim light of the candles, she saw his face gain the tiniest amount of color. “It seemed a waste,” he said, an edge to his tone, “for you to be all dressed up for nothing.”

Lucy gets stood up on a date, so Lockwood tries to make her feel better.

not to be controversial on main but I think people complaining about a certain magehunter's romance just don't appreciate some good old fashioned pining. he writes about rook in his journal, idk what else you could want??

@misc-muses sent: "Get behind me." Reaches very slowly for the gun on his hip. (Ford for Dipper)

unprompted asks (always accepting)

Dipper's eyes widened in surprise, "What? Why?" He questioned with a worried tone, already getting behind Ford. He felt his heart rate racing when he saw Ford slowly reaching for the weapon.

Legend of the Gnome Gemulets, a Gravity Falls 3ds Game!

So, hello! I haven't seen any posts about this game at all! Gonna change that...

Under the cut is 17 screenshots of the game, this is just the beginning of the game! I'm sure there's a wiki about this, I haven't bother to look for it.

This post is kinda long & I will give tiny blurbs on what info I know about the game so far. Please let me know if you played this game, I had no idea it existed!

The loading screens bottom screen; it's Ford's journal!

When you first start the game you have these pages in the journal; it grows as it progresses. There's a LOT of tiny lil critters in this game; also a light mechanic that seems to be quite common at the first part. (ref below)

Some enemies you encounter and what not; I haven't found them all.

Light mechanic and the weapons Dipper (Battle Cuffs) and Mable (Bedazzling Fleece) have!

When you agree to find the gemulets the Hawker stole! It says "Now begins the quest untold. The secrets of the gemulets unfold!" in the Caesar Cipher!

I'm gonna make another post that shows the environment and in/exterior of the Mystery Shack; link here! It's a realllyyy good reference for artists imo, it will be for me at least!

the timeloop is more great finale to a series story than sensible gameplay with explanation as to why Thing Are There and you know what that's okay

She was a techie, he was an actor. (Can I make it any more obvious?)

Actually, Lucy hated Lockwood and Lockwood had no idea why. He finally won her over during their joint school musical, just to run away in the end.

Now, they're together at the same university and working together on yet another musical. Lucy has shut herself off completely, afraid to get hurt again. Lockwood is doing his best.

But what happens when they keep pretending to be together for "safety" reasons?

The answer: fake dating shenanigans, (one sided) enemies-to-lovers, theatre kid antics, and more tropes galore.

Featuring: Skull the Real Boy and the rest of the Scooby Gang who tried to help Locklyle over the years and are now here to watch the world burn.

Oh and a goat. There's going to be a goat.

LotGG in/exterior screenies!

This post holds 13 screenshots of the outside and inside of the games start; it holds the apparent new and improved museum part of the Mystery Shack, and it made me giggle.

Front of shack, living area/room, and the new and apparently improved museum section lol.

Somehow fuckin' forgot to get a screenshot of outside the shack, but I did get this one!

A level I thought I was really pretty; the lighting is nice.

Og post here; feel free to check it out!
