guys I think there’s something wrong with my version of cat
Wer geboren werden will, muß eine Welt zerstören.
dead dove, do not eat!
okay i have been thinking about this for a while i am finally going to talk about it. every single time i play undertale i see this and go "oh flowey everything is wrong with u <3" cuz this is yet another case of his projection. he LOVES to project and i think a lot about how he so firmly believes everything is his fault-- whether that's chara's death or his parents grieving or literally anything else. and i think a lot of it is part of how much he cares about everyone... he's convinced that if only he had done everything right then everything would be fine.
he believes either the fault lies in him doing something wrong, or life is just "unfair". he even says in this exact scene that if only "you" had gone through without caring about anyone, you wouldn't have to feel this way now. if only he hadn't made chara care about him, if only he hadn't cared about chara. if only his parents didn't love him so much, they wouldn't have to feel this way now. so he subconsciously tries to get around this by convincing himself he doesn't care and can't care about anyone, despite that clearly not being true, given the alarm clock dialogue.
and in a similar way, as toriel is always a parallel for flowey, toriel attempts to do this by telling frisk not to come back. flowey and toriel don't really... deal with their emotions, they just shove them down and avoid it as best as they can. it's really interesting to see flowey's thoughts on toriel too; flowey doesn't understand why she keeps caring for humans when she keeps losing them. if she just didn't care then she wouldn't be feeling the way she does, right? toriel and flowey both innately want to take care of those around them and feel this great responsibility when things go wrong.
so he tells us it's all our fault for loving our friends. "being nice just makes you get hurt," as he says in the neutral end. so much of his mindset is rooted in how much he cares about his family, to the point where he seems to feel if only he didn't care it wouldn't hurt as much. something something opposite of it's better to have loved and lost than to never have loved at all. learning to love again and accept loss is such an important part of his character because of how his bereaved mindset left him feeling numb and resentful. the fact that he's able to say he's friends with frisk and that he's still tries to take care of toriel says sooo much about how much he's grown and it makes me wanna cry i love flowey so much he is the best character in anything <3

Welcome to own-mp5's late night rables (it's currently almost 2 am as I'm writing this)
> You know, I once mentioned to a friend about how I really do not want Frau Eva to exist in limbus, but the thing is it's not because of the whole "loving her" thing sinclair goes through, more so the illiteracy of the fanbase handling this plot-point if it ever happened, because people already cannot handle the fact that he's an adult in here but then having a character that sinclair claims to "love", even though he clearly loves the motherly affection given by her, something that he lost by growing up too soon. The entire book has him yearning for Demian every once in a while and it's so blaitantly obvious that if you'd read between the lines that he's supressing those thoughts and feelings (especially if you've read his dreams those were sure something) he's not beating the gay allegations is all I'm saying. But I'm sure some people will miss the mark on it and claim that his affection towards Frau Eva is romantic.
> On a related but also unrelated note I actually do not believe Frau Eva will be a character in game mainly because the whole worlds development and stuff feels way to disconnected for it to have her as a character, which now that I'm typing this out makes me think of the line in towsg sinclairs uptie story where Faust is described as a "mother bird" in a sense, which could alure that the people around him are the representation of that maternal love he craves. I wonder how limbus will handle the book from here on out because Kromers stuff was just barely 3 chapters....
Anyways all I'm saying is I do not want people to get the wrong idea orz
every time I make an unhinged ramble fest of a post where the tags take up 2/3 of what I’m saying there ends up being some poor soul in the rbs who’s like “guys look at the tags!!”. and I’m so grateful on one hand, but also to those people I am So Sorry you had to read 3am lunin’s unstructured batshittery in its entirety 😭😭😭
*clutching head* rodya and meursault would have such a good dynamic actually
I wonder if rodya would initially see meursault's indifference as like. a simpler version of her own feigned carefreeness and as a deliberate attempt to place himself as an outsider... only to realise that No, he really Is just Like That. and then she gets annoyed because it turns out that people who don't care about anything don't seem to be any fun.
(ofc he does actually care about a lot of things, just not necessarily his grander place in the world lol)
idk. nihilism vs absurdism. fun duo 👍 rodya would find meursault's genuine comfort with being a speck of dust in the universe baffling, while he would probably find her desire to assert her own importance pointless, but they could probably bond over little things like their shared desire to live in the present and appreciation of/indulgence in earthly joys. and meursault would probably listen if rodya wants to rant about anything without asking any uncomfortable questions. I think they could appreciate each other's presence.
Late night Sinclair doodles (please god it's 3 am as I am typing this)
thinking about the emerald city from lor… the structure of k corp… dongrang's parallels with the scarecrow searching for wisdom... aughh demons
the fact that meursault and ishmael have gotten teamed up in Two alternate universes now And they have a shared ego means something. I swear it means something, <- hanging on by a thread
I find it interesting how metamorphosis is less about the nature of gregor samsa's "horrific" transformation and more so about the social response to it and yet the transformation and the terror it elicits is what popular culture fixates on: in a sense we kind of assume the role of the outside characters in lamenting samsa's "loss of humanity" when the story is very much about how human he remains despite the people around him thinking otherwise

This is the fastes Demian I have ever drawn (this is the first time I have ever drawn him)
ALSO feel free to ask for doodle request or asking for my opinions on stuffs I like reading those even if I can't get to all of it :)
constantly thinking about the fact that base meursault’s second skill is called nailing fist. I straight up despise it here
I can't stop thinking about this post. Would Meursault have an Anton Ego moment if he ate some really good ratatouille. Would he reminisce about his mother cooking for him in their dingy algerian apartment. Would He

I think there’s something to be said about how depressing the presence of roach bud across all of gregor’s ids is: even when he has nothing to do with the smoke war, and his arm is implied to be lost under completely unrelated circumstances (such as in sous chef), he can’t shake the label of pest… his trauma is burned into his very being regardless of the choices he makes… it’s kind of saddening but at the same time his ability to move past that is commendable and honestly uplifting

Ooh It's this time of the year A very so merry night we hold dear So many, so many regrets bring me to tears Not many, not many notice nor care Oh, oh, oh, my saviour Oh, oh, oh Why does a common fire hold so much power? If only we could be forever naive and pure If only we could lead painless futures If only there could be a forgiving world
Maybe that was when I chose to stay fallen
Lights A star A voice A twisted thought A touch A kiss A distorted dream Ripples (ripples) A well (a well) A stone (a stone) A multiplying desire (desire) A fruit (a fruit) A sin (a sin) A holy mother I'm infected, I'm infected You have invaded and re-created me
Stepped over my body Found a sunny spot Curled into a ball Spinning out the silk From my head to toe Inside the warm cocoon, I dreamt to be like you Though I know there's no undo What do I have left to lose?
Split A sky An earth I fell into a crack (a crack) A birth (a birth) An egg (an egg) A freshly opened membrane A cell A rot A face returned to ashes A wound An art A sentient canvas
Breaking, breaking, breaking the shell Breaking out, oh break it now Show me how, show me how Listen up, my broken child Let's lament, let's lament The life, the death, the good, the bad The never ending curse we cast Control, control, control, release Control, betray, control, let go Conceal, reveal, unreal, surreal Invoke, evoke, decode, reload Let's lament, let's lament The past that only got to live in the incomplete holy land
Celestial (ayiah) We're astral (ayiou) I'm reborn (le rheaiah) Total liberation (katre o lamenta)
My tender skin A vagitus song (essential) I breathed (eventual) And screamed (eternal) From my new lungs (inevitable freeing of the soul)
when I said put anything in my ask box I wasn't expecting this (joking)
I'm sorry but Quixote and Sinclair aren't minor coded i dunno how to tell you this but ppl can be short asf
I'm so annoyed I can't find this one analysis post someone made on the theme of healing and stuff pre-part 3 of canto 4 where they talked about the stuff that happens with ishmael in particular... I wish I could find it the analysis was so good...
