fanfic ttime, featuring my zeph hms!! tw for suicide mention
"You don't understand, Mind! We need to feel something, anything!" "In order to survive this cacophany, we need to detach from the situation." As Heart and Mind argued for the umpteenth time, Soul stood by. This reminded him of the arguments before the current loop. Heart betraying Mind, severing his arms, and now shooting him. Could this ever end? "Soul fronts the most, right? He needs to be present in the moment, to feel and act accordingly!" "If he feels nothing, the mental toll won't be as much of a burden." Words blended together in Soul's mind, his fur fluffing up with overstimulation.
"Shut up!" Soul snapped. He summoned his trident, pointing it at the two, his wings fluffing up in rage. "I swear to fucking Harmonia, if you two don't stop arguing like before, I will hang this damn body!" Silence. Heart and Mind shook hands, and backed away from eachother. "This has happened before! Do you remember how you lost your arms, Mind?! Do you remember why he hates you in the first place, Heart?! You don't!! I have been trying for years to make you two listen, but--" He paused and took a deep breath, letting his trident simmer away.
"...You never listen."
Thinking about Soul makes me sob because imagine if he's the only one who ALWAYS remember each and every loop 24/7 while the other two stuck within the time mental loop where they keeps on forgetting ehat happened, forgetting their progress over and over again despite knowing about the loops. (Knowing, not remembering.)
Leaving Soul behind in the dark, remembering each one of those loops. Seeing his friends constantly falling back into the worst versions of themselves, ovwr and over again.
I imagine on the first few loops, Soul TRIED so hard to make them aware of the loop, to let them know that this had happened before, to shake their heads. He was probably desperate for them to REMEMBER so this cacophony could end fast, so they could be back and be friends again.
But no, despite how many times he had told them, it doesn't help with their fights at all. They'll forget about it by the next loop.
Soul longs for that happy place, happy times where his friends are being friends, where all three of them get to have a happy life, being whole, complete. But it never last long. He could make them aware of the loop during concord and they would accept it, but it would be a waste once they hit calamity once again.
He would cling into those parts of Heart and Mind that reminded hin of concord, would try his best to bring the best out of them, only for them to completely ignoring him and hyperfocused on their own conflicts about wanting to be the one to influence soul.
He probably had tried to solve their problems with kindness for the first few rounds. He slowly turned his attempts to get them to get along into threats as the more the loops happened.
He must be so sick of it. Just as much as the other two. Except, he remembered everything.
wwww...... hi @psilliguykai... here r yr skrungles as promised!!!!!
also tw for suicidal gestures (URGHHHHH JIOMMY)
the thought process behind laplace was "she'd wear something like what saul goodman would wear, colorful tuxes n shit...... cuz yknow, normal album. but mind's persoanlity and general vibe doesn't fit it!" so thats why i gave him a businesswoman outfit, responsible! also i gave her rings/string around his fingers to represent how shes sorta the puppeteer
jimmy.... i feel like in this au, they're not a fully formed alter. this is why their design is so..... vacant compared to the rest, and why tey're so unstable. they're hedonistic, but they don't know how to keep it in check
and capgras.... my beloved capgras. i gave him his mask to represent the ACTUAL capgras delusion, because i think it's a delusion about someone impersonating everyone around you. i gave him SPIRAL EYES because of how sort of.... abstract the album cover is.
and for the stripes!
when i was desigining capgras, i mixed up the self-ish album cover for everything is a lot's, and yeah. thats why he has stripes. but i was like "hey, this design is complex, just like self-ish" so i kept it
since laplace is like the apple to everybody elses' windows, sleek and complex.... so i gave her small vertical stripes so it can fit in with her whole vibe
and jimmy..... half n half counts as 2 rlly big stripes, right?
WHAT WOULD GOD THINK!?!?!?!? (rotten girl reference)

check it, the original ^^
anyway this is just the first part
this ttook liek... 1 hour
check under the cut 4 progress on the 2nd part!
yeah..... its comin along....
also if you're wondering why soul's hairclip is gone, it slid off after the first part (in zephian culture, this means that the wearer doesn't really care anymore, and evil has already entered their body through the right eye) if you can't tell, i love writing alien culture
and if you're wondering why mind has his crown in only one panel, the rest will cover the crown (i think)
YUMMY!!!!!!!! AAAAAAA
I FEEL THE SUPERNOVA PHASE COMING BACK
i had a vision
pancreas, liver and spleen not pictured (they're also dead)
funny thing chonny could do is be like ok fine cccc volume 2 is coming out tomorrow and then the next day he posts a video titled idfk the liver eccentric or something cause I guess he's going the inside out route of introducing new characters for marketing purposes even though it makes no fucking sense given the established story and the video is just a black screen for 5 seconds and then all of a sudden it starts playing an actual banger cover of never gonna give you up
