what I find very interesting about the narrator's choice of reward - ie. an eternity of supposed bliss inside the cabin - is that while it seems on its surface just another instance of him projecting his desires onto you, it actually isn't. he himself probably thinks that he would desire an unchanging eternity like the one in the cabin, but...
when he is talking about his reasons for wanting to remove death from the world, his focus is almost entirely on connections to others. he talks about the greater good, having loved ones, wanting better for them. it's those connections that drive him to submit to death in the hope of defeating it. he is definitely selfish, but if he was totally selfish, he wouldn't have been able to do that. he believes his own death is a worthy sacrifice for the continued existence of his world. his vision of an ideal eternity, as he describes to you, is one where connections are endlessly and joyfully rediscovered.
in his ideal ending, you've killed off the only being you could ever meaningfully connect to. and this is one of the main reasons his plan dooms itself. who could bear the weight of an eternity alone? not him, certainly.

📓 and 🌟 for Oppy?
hobbies and wishes!
ive said before that i think he likes to cook! and garden!
for various reasons ! cooking gets people to like him, and he likes when theyre all together. he also doesn't like food made by other people (trust issues and ocd tendencies) so he'll do it more than anyone.
i also think he gardens :)). the route of the witch has a lot to do with nature itself (rather than the beast, which is more to do with the fauna than the flora) and i think that rubs off on him. he likes to grow plants to have specific uses, especially ones that help issues that some others have. paranoid needs something to help him sleep? cool new incense he found. conty getting rashes from running around in the woods and tripping on poisonous plants? oppy's got some mushed up leaves for ya. skeppy needs an easily digestible capsule for a medication? oppy found this sweet syrup that easily solidifies. he likes having their solutions.
this also goes into his wishes and desires. as implied in Reunite, he wants to be respected. people acknowledging him and accepting him as just as good as (if not better than) the rest of them.
a big wish, a dream perhaps, would be , one day, someone coming to his home with some gifts. something nice to pamper him. a day where someone gives their full attention to him, full of praise and comfort. he really wants to be loved and liked like some of the others (but he'd rather die than admit it)
I love seeing people’s picrew art styles because you can just look at them and be like
“You read homestuck and it was a big part of your life for a few years, you’re not into steven universe but you did watch it, and you had an intense black butler phase in middle school and doodled their eyes over and over again in your spiral notebooks”
I need to draw more of the voices and Narrator...
There is a lot of instances where one of the voices just takes over Quiet's body, usually against his will.
"I was sent here to slay you. I'm told you will end the world if I don't."
The Narrator:
Why are you telling her that!?
Voice of the Prince:
Okay, so, two very different points of view here.
The Narrator:
She is lying, she has never saved a world in her life. I told you she would lie, and this is a very obvious situation to do so in.
Voice of the Prince:
If someone told me I will end the world, I'd deny it, too.
The Narrator:
Exactly. Anything to save your skin and absolve you of blame. It is the same with her. She is not going to agree.
Voice of the Prince:
Right, she doesn't seem evil.
The Narrator:
It is not a matter of whether or not she wants to, because she always will, if you don't slay her. She could be the most heroic woman in the world and the task would still be here.
The Narrator:
But she is not. She is willing to damn the world, and everyone in it, to oblivion for no reason. You cannot let that happen.
oh everybody hates it great great feeling sooo normal rn
