do not repost my art pls
Cassandra's moonstone form, with my own version included as well. Since my version of the story takes a different approach, an outfit change seemed appropriate. Plus, a moonstone form that looks like it's on the verge of crumbling is honestly a cool visual.
“Guys disney is gonna make vat7k this time trust me bro-“ its been FIVE YEARS. LET THE MAN DIE.
I still REALLY need to read it (I'll get around to it eventually)
okay guys i’m gonna read the silent opera
Just give her bread, Hugo.
What's your weirdest comfort food and you're nerdy son's weirdest comfor food?
My comfort food is not a food, but a whole bottle of red wine. Whenever I’m feeling down, Merlot, Pinot Noir and Cabernet are my best friends in the whole world.
Hugo used to always ask for a piece of bread when he was sad. Not even buttered, sometimes he preferred it a bit stale as well. No idea why.
Can't wait until I start properly planning vat7k and then suddenly everything will make sense and not be a jumble of plot holes in my brain
My bookmark is giving princess Nuru
(Trying to rant, hope this makes sense lmao)
Honestly I think one of my absolute favorite things about Vat7k is everyone’s different interpretations of the characters.
Because Vat7k centers around an idea rather than an actual piece of media and is on the smaller side of fandoms, it not only means everyone gets a lot of creative freedom, but also that you *will* see *all* of that creative freedom being exercised cuz there’s only a handful of creators. You see the same people over and over again until you recognize who they are and what they usually put out and how they usually characterize everyone.
I LOOOVE seeing all the different fonts these characters come in. There’s so much to do with how Varian-Yong-Hugo-Nuru can be characterized and then therefore how they interact with eachother. I will see someone have the exact opposite interpretation of a character or dynamic than my own, and I’ll just be like “Not how I see it personally, but I completely see where you’re coming from and I love it”.
Some people focus more on the serious, dark, creepy parts of the story. Some people focus on more on the comedic, light, slice-of-life parts of the story. Some people lean as close to ‘canon’ as possible while some people headcanon everything to be as suited to their specific taste as they can. And there’s a lot of in-between with all of those, obviously.
I just think it’s all super fun and I haven’t really seen anyone bring this up before.
"If I had a nickel for every time I wanted to punch Hugo in the face just because... I'd be rich" (this could go for Varian or Nuru. Or anyone that isn't Yong)
Alright! Sorry for being so absent today! I was building a tool so you can all check your own names on demand.
I am asking that you not talk about it on Hugging Face. I'm sure word will get there eventually, but I'd like to avoid them accessing this as much as possible. Feel absolutely free to spread around Tumblr.
That said, I did pay out of pocket for some of the accounts I've needed to do all this. If I need to, I'm fine with eating that cost, but I am going to ask nicely that if you feel like kicking in toward it, you donate to the Ko-Fi I made specifically for this technical project. I was hoping to get a short-term membership, but I was only able to buy access to host this for a full year lmao. BUT regardless, this is freely available to everyone. Do NOT feel like you need to donate if it'll put you in a bad place or even if you just don't want to. Just figured I'd ask instead of quietly sucking up the $180.
Thanks to everyone who helped with the cost to host the tool! I appreciate you so so so much. As of this edit, I'm at $185 total, and right now, I don't expect to have to pay for anything else to keep this available.
I gave the tool a quick test, but please come yell if it stops working. I'm around; I'll fix as fast as I can. It's slow as hell, but it does load eventually. Give it up to 10 minutes, and if it seems down after that, please alert me via ask! Anons are on.
Now with all that being said, time for me to start focusing on how we stop the next scrape.
I like to think he has a mix of like a million different accents. In my mind, he would've had a French or German accent as a kid, especially from the orphanage. He learned English a lot better as he grew older, but he can't read it that well. I also think Donella and Cyrus would be Russian, so their accents would rub off on Hugo a lot, and he'd also know quite a bit of Russian from them. He would mostly try to speak with a typical American accent, but whenever one of the other options slips out, team radical teases him endlessly
also he forgets English words sometimes
I 100% headcanon that Hugo used to have some sort of an accent (like French sounding or something) as a kid (because as far as I know, Ingvarr has its own language), and while travelling/doing missions for Donella and stuff, he would drop the accent and just speak with a modern day American accent.
Fast forward a few years (after Vat7k and Varian and Hugo live together), every now and then, Hugo's real accent will shine through and Varian will tease the life outta him.
"YOU WANT A BAGUETTE WITH THAT FRENCH BOY?'
"OUI OUI CROSSANT"
"did you just say 'lItTlE sNaCk'???"
also totally irrelevant, but that one video of Talya and Jorge singing "Wait For Me" from Hadestown is literally those two (Hugo being Jorge ofc)
also plz ask me questions abt Vat7k, or any other fandom i have listed really, and i'll answer!
i might doodle a request you have if i like it so yeah (i'm very busy stalking Hugo effing Rottawange so idk if i'll have time /silly)
so uh yea thx for coming to my Ted Talk
-peace out bitches <3
