міні-ріхтер після того я�� той втік із дит-будинка. років 16-17. три варіка: - ріхтер не знає куди далі, тож поки він перечікує тут. надалі може зустріти якихось дядьок на звалищі, трохи попрацює та розтеревениться, ті виведуть його на чувачка, що приведе до зони. - можливо ті ж дядьки попросять його щось доставити, бо якесь важливе діло, не можуть вони бо "вставьте причину". там можуть бути науковці. таким чином почав доставляти якісь хріні до них і через кілька раз домовився щодо зони. - найпростіший варік, він вже втік, аби зустрітися з провідником до зони. але.... це дуже багато "повір мені бро". чи зробити дит-будинок якоюсь підпільною хрінню... ііііі щось-так щось-так. БУМ - зона.

короче, міміта)

- - - хотів це додати до подарунку... але бляха. якось ніторт... дуже сиро і незакінчено

HAPPY PRIDE MONTH TO YARSHOT, they would 100% promote freedom over duty intercom! Also- I'm convinced there has atleast been one case where the whole freespm base heard them having say gex and they have been put into the Freedom base dirt holes (horny jail)

Yar and Ashot plzplzplz, literally anything about these two bickering and causing a ruckus

Yar and Ashot messing with Duty during a truce and acting like toddlers

Inspired by @shnezok's comment: messing with Duty's intercom. Also!! Ganja's look in the last two panels was inspired by this redesign by @shnezok, I love this look soo much,,,

More archive content for @tar-dar from a trade and AF last year so I can get some of the STALKER out of my system because (much to the disappointment of the entire world population) I am not a STALKER fanartist. 😢 It's my fandom-in-law simply because of Rat bringing me enjoyable STALKER rambles every day! 🥰🐀

VALERIY (1st picture right side) BELONGS TO RAT!!! ☝️☝️☝️☝️☝️ LMK IF I NEED TO ADD CHARACTER TAGS MY LOVE

HAPPY PRIDE TO THEM AND ONLY TWO THEM!!! they are so cute AHHHH

The Ninth and Mastiff 🥹

Since it’s Pride Month allow me to share some cozy little story below in addition to the picture 🤭 Fluff warning!

The crinkle of torn packaging breaks the silence. Strong hands carefully feel his head. The bandage flits past his eyes, wrapping slowly around his wounded scalp. Mastiff smirks, watching The Ninth’s overly focused face as he meditatively wraps his forehead.

His gaze drops to the gray uniform, then back up again. And suddenly, without thinking, his mouth blurts out.

“Did you really forget everything… from before?”

He instantly regrets it. Yep. Definitely hit his head too hard this time. It’s buzzing, blood sticky at his temple, thoughts a mess. Who even asks questions like that in this state?

“Yes,” The Ninth replies unwaveringly.

Mastiff watches his hands as if mesmerized.

“But if you forgot everything, how do you know how to patch people up?”

A flicker of firelight dances in The Ninth’s tranquil eyes.

“I just knew what to do. It came to me.”

“Came to you, huh...” Mastiff echoes, grinning, sneaking glances at his serious face. At the scar on his cheek, the split brow, the neatly trimmed hair.

The Ninth finishes with the head wound and moves on to the arms. He peels off an old patch, then touches Mastiff’s skin with a rough, warm palm. It’s steady and really comforting. With a twinge of disappointment, Mastiff watches it be replaced by a soft bandage. He tries not to flinch at the sting. He’s just watching the way Ninth’s hands move.

Watching him.

He’s always there. Always finds him, somehow. Always shows up when it matters. Mastiff once promised himself he was done chasing artifacts, but where else would he see The Ninth? It’s not like he could just waltz into Zalissya. And Mastiff had no excuse to show up on Wild Island unless he had a damn good reason.

The campfire warms his body. But it's the sight of The Ninth, silently tending to him, that warms his soul.

“Know what came to me?” Mastiff asks suddenly, realizing he’s long since lost his mind.

“What?” the medic asks, still calm, tying off the bandage.

Mastiff wants to crack that calm open, see if there's anything left inside. See if he still knows how to feel. And part of him never wants him to let go of his hand.

“I like you”.

The Ninth blinks and frowns slightly, but does not let go of his bandaged hand. Mastiff takes advantage of his hesitation, grabs him and starts talking fast.

“That’s why I leave the base. Just to find you. To see you. To make sure you’re okay.”

The Ninth looks up slowly, a little more tense.

“The Zone’s dangerous. You’re too inexperienced.”

“There’s no safe place in the Zone,” Mastiff cuts in. “Except maybe... near you.”

He feels it . The Ninth’s pulse racing beneath his fingers. And only then realizes his own heart is doing the same.

“Can I stay with you?” Mastiff asks almost in a whisper. “Will you teach me how to treat people? I want to help you.”

The medic lowers his gaze to their intertwined hands.

“Please, Ninth. I get uneasy when I don’t know where you are.”

He raises his head. Mastiff leans in, simultaneously pulling The Ninth closer. He could barely breathe from the tension. The Ninth does not pull away when he feels his breath on his cheek. He also does not pull away when Mastiff touches his lips almost weightlessly.

Don't forget to leave water bowls out for them too! They need to stay hydrated in the summer!

Don't walk your pups and/or snorks on the hot pavement either, keep their paws safe!

Snorks should let you pull their tongue out for at least like 5 centimetres

hi guys do yall fw puppyplay?

BARK BARK BARK BARK BARK!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Happy Pride Month! Have a puppylithian

[tar-dar]

Definitely alot group's and big secret communities for stalking! Organised trips to cross the border? Maybe even activism to try to get easier and safer access into the Zone?

There would be a big uproar about the whole Stalker thing, it definitely would be frowned upon?

New treatment for all forms of mental health due to ex-Stalkers unable to integrateinto society? Let's be real, most would have trauma after being in the Zone for some time. But then, I guess most would go back anyway.

S.T.A.L.K.E.R. - Out-of-zone world implications. Feel free to reblog and add onto it

Read last paraghaph please

I dont really remember if the trilogy said anything about how commonly artefacts are used outside of the zone and how legal it is (when can a hospital use one for helping a patient, etc), but I bet "Artefact doping" is a real thing. Forget trans athletes, forget steroid chuggers, this is the new META

Additionally, it is stated that artifacts stop working after some time outside of the zone (in S2 for sure, dont know anything about trilogy), which means that it isnt as easy as a hospital getting an artifact and using it forever. Rich people only?

Jokes about the phrase "My boyfriend is a stalker". Working on a similiar basis as "Kid named [insert]"?

I dont even know how some religions would react to it. Some christianic split-offs would surely see it as a danger, a seed that will soon sprout into the End Times

Multiple-hour long essays about the Zone, akin to ones about true crime, cryptids, terrorism etc

To add to the last one, Zone Girlies?

Fetishization and romantizations of stalkers by those Zone Girlies? "Trust me, they do shower and own more than one pair of underwear"

Ukraine would *surely* benefit economically, but would it become a major player in the game of Europe? Would it just be rich people benefitting, "the US of Europe"? Depends on how successful artefact trading is, the decay time of anomalous properties etc

Liveleak content, enough said.

I wonder how much talking about the Zone would be censored? It could be something similiar to terrorism ("dont leak recipes for homemade weapons or you get raided"), could be full on like classified documents (leaking on game forums included?). Would be stupid to just break into the zone without any knowledge avaiable to the public. Sure, before ~'9 it must have been a top-tier secret, however with so many criminals trespassing in 11-12......
