That day I woke up crying
Inspired by this article, which caught in my throat for a good while.
really drawn to characters who are copies of someone else and/or hollowed out inside. which could mean anything
this is like. GENUINELY the best edit i've ever seen in my life. full stop. let me reiterate: not just the best severance edit. THE best edit. the creator doesn't have a tumblr that i can find but i simply had to share.
you're worm food, boy. you're gonna return to the earth, buddy. you're gonna nourish millions of tiny organisms, dude. your corpse is gonna give life to countless others, boy. you're fucking dead, kid.
could you please write something about ronin and his ex Ther?? I'm so curious to know what you think went down between them :3 i love your writing it's so good 🫶🫶🫶🫶🫶🫶🫶
Forgive me if I get something wrong about Gluttony Gods I only did one run through it 🙏
I think what's really interesting about having Gluttony Gods and Killer Chat is that we get to see Ronin's past, but at the same time, it isn't really his past. Parts of it are canon, parts of it are not. Ther being a major part of Ronin's life is canon, but Ther continuing to be part of his life is not.
So what happened then in the Killer Chat universe?
Well, maybe Ronin… didn't go back. Decided to just continue his life somewhere else, except there's no way he could have done that at all, that wouldn't be Ronin. He has to go back, for Ther and for himself, so I believe in the KC verse that's exactly what he did too.
He is the devil and chaos incarnate, but when it comes to Ther, we can predict him just a little bit more. So if Ronin is the same so far, then something must have happened to Ther.
I have two thoughts/theories/ideas for this—one is that, by the time Ronin came back to Angelwood, it was too late. There was no chance for him to save them, maybe Ther just couldn't handle it anymore, couldn't handle having to keep up their mask and facade, they were gone by the time Ronin came back without ever having the chance to know that he came back.
The second is that Ther was there, and most of the Gluttony Gods events played out, a massacre, ruins of blood and gore, but somewhere somehow, Ronin lost them—not literally in the gone missing sense, because there's no world where Ronin wouldn't be devoting his time to Ther if he even thought she was still around, so she has to be… dead. In either of these cases, the result has to be the same. Ther is dead, or at the very least, there has to be a reason for Ronin to believe they are.
So he loses himself a little more. Truly becomes the devil, the butcher, with kills racking up to the hundreds, he doesn't particularly discriminate with who he targets, but if they happen to fit his criteria of who he really hates, then he can lose himself in his kills just a little more.
It's why it's so amusing to him when he meets Angel and finds so much of Ther in her. He would never be able to truly delude himself into thinking that they were similar, no one could ever be Ther, but their similarities did bring him comfort. It's why, even after they break up, he can't help but find himself feeling protective over Angel, just a little softer than he normally would be to the others, because sometimes he looks at her and he's reminded of what he lost.
And honestly? I think no matter how much he loves the MC, there's nothing that could ever top the love he had and still has for Ther. The hole is just too big to fill, and he's not exactly looking for a replacement (which is a good thing depending on how you look at it 💕).
Here's an addition to the previous Mal redesign I posted, just with an extra outfit. This is my take on her coronation dress at the end of the story, fully embracing the red palette that was previously creeping in, now that she's standing in her individuality, away from and opposing her mother.
I wanted her coronation look to have a mix of princess and lightness in there, but not take away the witchiness and villain aesthetic from her. I also gave her a small cape to reflect her hero moment at that point in the story.
These are some images I was looking at for her two looks, going back to some early concepts from Sleeping Beauty (1959):

Since all my fics are set in the same universe I figured it would be useful to make a post to clarify how they connect.
Butterfly Eater (It’s Good to Have a Friend Your Age)
Debaser (Cis or Trans version) chapters 1-9
Can I get a ticket to the gun show? (Hooking up with you feels like Russian roulette) *Only has a trans version but the cis and trans chronologies are the same
Hey! (You still like me when I’m like this)
Debaser (Cis or Trans version) chapters 10-16
Wave of Mutilation (Cis or Trans version)
Happiness is a gun warmed by your insides (guns are to dicks as shooting is to cuming) *only has a trans version
Just a reminder there are cis and trans versions of some of these, but the differences are mostly in the sex scenes. They’re all in the same timeline though, so you should be able to go from the cis version of Debaser (for example) to Can I Get A Ticket to the Gun Show (which only has a trans version) and not be confused.
This links to a wheel with nearly a hundred fic tropes for plots, settings, and more. Spin it twice.
This could also work with art inspiration, but the buttons only allow for so many characters on them. And please do ramble in the tags! I'm going to have no idea what most of you are talking about, and it's going to be great.
the first rule of shipping is get aromantic with it. the second rule is that gender and sexuality are what i want them to be. the third rule is have fun and be yourself
