Height comparison (as presented in my art style) of characters that I like very much ˇwˇ RT!Chara wants to stand next to Core which is why they’re so grumpy.

Thinking about,,, Lalter

An if of an if, ghost among the ghosts, one of a kind. The result of solely one, specific, set of events.

There is only one of her, yet she’s called to Chaldea. To a Chaldea. To all Chaldeas.

She roams through the halls. The servants she meets often pass through each other like ghosts, unaware of each other; different Chaldea, different worlds. “Why do you ride a horse indoor?” Asks Jack, or maybe Nursery Rhyme, or maybe Bunyan, a few seconds a few Chaldeas apart. “Why do you ride a horse indoor?”

(Llamrei is like her; one foot, one hoof, between all worlds, the eye of the storm. Her friend. Her anchor.)

“You’re always up at the oddest hours.” Say Robin, and Sanson, Emiya. “Don’t you ever sleep?”

She can’t remember the last time she was awake.

Battles are easier. Singularities are easier. She’s at her most coherent when the world is breaking. It’s like only one of them can be whole at the time.

“Lalter!” The Master waves at you. “I’m glad to see you today! You’re so hard to find, I swear.”

Transient. Dream-dweller. Her very existence is but flickering. Of course she’d be hard to find.

(… And, admittedly, she’s made herself scarce. Seeing other versions of herself isn’t exactly pleasant. Like someone else watching her through her own eyes.)

The Master sits next to her and speaks of many things at once. The Master is asian, black and white. The Master is blond, brown-haired and red-haired. The Master speaks to her in Japanese, Russian and English. It’s all just sound. It’s all just a body.

(She’s heard people, many times, wonder how could the Master spare so much love for their servants. She wonders if the Master themself is aware of this. That Humanity’s Last Master could have been anyone, that they all overlap, a thousand eyes and a thousand voices and a thousand hearts that beat and echo and love love love.)

“It must be weird,” they say absent-mindedly (they for indeterminate gender and they for multiple) “to see so many versions of yourself on a daily basis.”

And she turns towards them, turns their head to their face and their timeline and their Chaldea, and can’t help but mutter; “Wouldn’t you know best?”

Most of Binks no Sake is just pretty descriptions of sailing an ongoing journey, but the last line stuck out to me. (I looked up the English lyrics, and it looks like they kind of didn’t translate the last bit all that accurately for the sake of making it rhyme?)

It goes: 果てなし あてなし 笑い話/hatenashi, atenashi, waraibanashi.

-nashi as a suffix means ‘without,’ while hate is ‘end’ and ate is ‘aim/purpose’ so hatenashi, atenashi means basically ‘never-ending, aimless,’

But the word that REALLY caught my attention is the last one, waraibanashi. It means ‘funny story.’

Or, to be a bit more literal-

...laugh tale.

Why have them fight when they can team up and fight their evil former business partners together instead?

Let’s talk about perspective and how to put characters into perspective.

Use your vanishing and parallel lines as measurement tools! The Horizon line can help, but I find using the vanishing lines way more helpful and practical, especially when it comes to different perspectives.

I'm embarrassed of how long this took to make
