posting separately as to not hijack flowers' post but realising that some of you guys may also not be as into ddlc and not know all the nuances and random tidbits about it and specifically monika. like, for example, the fact that monika's piano playing is a metaphor for her hacking the game/changing the code, the fact that every time one of the girls is acting particularly out of character she isn't present in the room, only to rush back in like "oh what happened? i had nothing to do with this!!", the times where she gets absolutely steamrolled in act 2 by yuri and natsuki and is so clearly taken aback despite the fact she's the one fucking with their codes to make them aggressive enough to do that, etc.
also just, all the lines in act 1 where she's so blatantly talking about her sentience but that you wouldn't pick up on unless you already knew she was sentient. like she is not even trying to hide it from the beginning, you just know when she talks about her "epiphany" she's giggling to herself like "oh they're never gonna believe what i mean by that"
#📁 : // ⦗ out of character ⦘#📁 : // ⦗ musings ⦘#monika doesn't really have anything as funny or jarring as the piss poem or any of yuri's uh. quirks. but she's so interesting to me#like when u pay attention to her specifically while playing ddlc#the amount of out of pocket jokes she makes even in act one#of course we all know “you really left her hanging”#but throughout the week she's like “oh it would be a SHAME if something happened to sayori aha ha ha”#and of course her jokes and jabs in act two are a lot more overt#still i love her and her fucked up sense of humour#i also didn't pick up on the times she's late being her actively messing with the other girls until recently#like the day after the argument between yuri and natsuki in act two she's specifically late bc she's making natsuki forget the argument#and of course there's all the times she makes yuri and natsuki do scares while she's “off-camera”#like you'll notice she's never present when the really big scares happen and by the end of act 2 she's almost constantly late into the room#also the fact that she messes with the girls to make herself look better but is still clearly hurt when they take it out on her#one could argue she's making herself sympathetic on purpose but like#she doesn't even get a CHANCE to interact with mc once yuri's at her worst#and she always says she's not the best coder so i fully believe she's like “oh i fucked that up” and bit off more than she could chew#anyway she means everything to me <3
