I love the part in The Tower's route where you can hear the moment Broken become A Problem
And to answer Hero, you should be *very* worried
So... Who let her cook?
I wanna turn her into a bird in my part. Idk I thought it'd be neat.
Save the Poet AU by @tai-janai (she's so. She's so pretty, Tai-)
Thinking about how the Narrator doesn't really know if the world stays saved when we die, and yet in some cases He tries to reassure/console us during our 'last moments'.
"You've paid a terrible price, but you've saved us all." He doesn't know that. Maybe He's just trying to describe it into existence, hoping that if you die with the thought, it'll become true? But in other times, He's sure that our death means doom for whatever world we've left behind. "The world doesn't stay saved if you die." Then why tell us that we've saved it?
I also think it's interesting how emotional Narrator gets by the end of each chapter 1. He treats us differently based on our actions and how we approach the situation.
If we try and save the Princess, he purposely makes our death as long and painful as he possibly can, presumably, out of pure spite. "It is agony. But you aren't dead yet." "She sinks the blade into your chest again, and again, and again... and you feel every inch of burning pain that slices itself into your body."
If we resist his instructions at first, but give in later, he seems genuinely apologetic. "This can't actually be how everything ends..!" "I'm sorry, but it is." or "As much as I'd preferred for things to have gone differently, I can't deny the reality of what has happened." He wants this to work, and he wants us to come out happy and content by the end of it.
He seems caught off guard in the Spectre route if we try to kill her while she's in our body. "Slay her would slay you. Are you sure you're willing to do that?" One would expect Him to immedietly be on board with whatever plan gets rid of Her, but the "heroic"(in His eyes) gesture immedietly makes Narrator develop a soft spot and start to worry for our well being. He doesn't like the idea of the hero being denied their happy ending.
He genuinely believes the Princess to be a manifestation of everything evil in the world and constantly denies her any personhood. It's not an active choice either, as Narrator is an Echo with a set amount of beliefs that cannot be changed. He never changes His mind about anything and one of His core beliefs is that He is right. He has to be, otherwise everything he'd done, everything he went through, it would all be for nothing.
That which was once a defensive thought, shaped by his own hurt and unwillingness to see another perspective, becomes a universal truth.
“Sweetheart, that’s- a cryptid??? I’m not sure but it’s definitely not a cat-“

Hero immediately started screaming after that last panel.
Those rafters won’t keep them safe forever~
No one had answered this yet, so I'm saying fuck it. Give me a few days and this shit will get written.
Does anyone know of any Slay the Princess fanfics that The Narrator somehow survives and has to face The Long Quiet and The Shifting Mound? The idea has been in my head all day and I need to know if it exists.
Drew the Voice of the Broken because he's actually in my top three of favorite voices <3
