There needs to be more exploration of the way Hero must’ve felt watching Quiet walk out that door with the Princess.
Doing the right thing even as it destroys you, watching someone you love walk into uncertainty alone- the fear of them needing you. The lost of meaning. The way you have to pick up all the pieces, rebuilding it and it’ll still never be the same. The intimacy of how there’s something missing and it hurts. Every jagged edge of you is missing something.
Some part of you resents it all, resents the way he doesn’t look back and the way you miss him so so deeply.
I’m baaaaack and with another fan princess!!
Chapter II: The painting
Quick summary of her chapter I: go down without blade, don’t say a single word to both the princess and your voices, and then sit down next to her & admire her like one would a painting until u starve <333
she’s mute and mostly stays still. She’s not super active and prefers to stay in one spot. Won’t be bothered if you decide to leave with or without her or just choose to remain with her again, but she’ll be disappointed if you stab her. She’s like a canvas when you stab her although I don’t imagine her dying just from a stab wound like how a painting isn’t automatically ruined if it has a small-ish hole in it. You’d probably have to slash her completely before the princess is truly slain and you “save the world”. If you take your life like how you do in any other route here you successfully slay the princess, you’ll get Chapter III: The Sketch… which I have just now thought of and have no info on.
I have her cabin too!! Def based off of cubist art style and Picasso, but more as an inspiration than a reference
Sadly I don’t have a voice counterpart for her yet 😔 I don’t know whether to lean towards excited artist wanting to learn how to draw certain things through observation or that one guy that is way too serious when going to the art museum and admires each art piece for way too long
Also heavily fixating on my own ocs so this blog might turn into a multi fandom blog… except the other fandom is of my ocverse that has a max of like.. 2-4 people in it, including me
Alright since everyone just ADORED the last one but was a little saddened by the ending... have a sequel!!
Part 1
I came across some old tags of mine I saved in a screenshot an got a little carried away.
Part 2
Imagine you died but instead of heaven or hell or nothing you're just stuck with all the other dead versions of you and you have to watch the next iteration of you make the same mistake AGAIN like a fucked up twitch chat because you ARE unfortunately the universe's favorite OC and instead of letting you truly die they just keep copying you in slightly different iterations over and over again.
First you find out that all the others were watching you fuck up before. And now you have to watch the next one fuck up even though YOU GOT YOUR HAPPY ENDING.
And none of them have the beam into your head tutorial power but Loop so the only way to communicate with them is through Loop. So Loop has to do this AGAIN. All while they have three other idiots breathing down their neck and arguing about the best way to get through this. And technically there are even more of you running around but they're so old or fragmented they're more like ghosts than anything???
How long has this been going on?
Nobody is sure. Even the oldest one there has seen the ghosts running around.
Anyways welcome to the nightmare blunt rotation.
i’m so unbelievably normal for your hero and smitten designs if i may request them…. they’re just so GORGEOUS 💘💘
Hello again!!
"She may not be able to hear my voice, but surely she can hear my spirit!"
Suffer the cramps together
Atleast they have hot chocolate and a warm blanket.
And modern family
MOON IN A SUIT IRL?!?!?!?!?!?!?
( @amenalyme )
Do you think Oppy would ever style his hair differently,like a braid or a bun?
Funny thing, he had a braid in his beta design! I'm thinking of bringing that back, maybe swapping between the ponytail and a braid just for fun. Anyways, here's some alternate hairstyles across different routes:
Full game spoilers for ISAT!!! You have been warned!

So hypothetically if mal du plays is ever a physical person and not just a mental sadness. I fully believe that they trauma on the siffrin but is completely normal if anyone else is around. And by normal i mean by chilling being a little guy. Repeating what the others are saying and basically having a mind of a 3 year old. They are siffrin’s sadness and his sadness alone.
Transcript:
1-
Mal: always surrounded by people, but always alone.
2-
*mall continues to say things to siffrin, siffirn is currently witnessing the horrors
3-
Mirabelle: Mal! Tea time! *currently trying to get mal away from the rouge*
4-
Mal: tea time *mimicking Mira’s voice* it sound just like her but through a phone speaker
Isabeau: Sif?
And here’s the same thing but with my dnd party. One of the player got their own mal du plays (kinda)
Event horizon is more space cowboy but also gives trauma. Only to this one player though, the others are safe.
Thank you, Slay the Princess community!
Today is my Birthday!
I couldn't be more grateful for this game, and the community that arose as a product of it!
I couldn't be more grateful to have so many talented artists and writers as my mutuals!
@neverpathia, @dampfur, @itsonlypolite, @everestgale, @phantasmatoucan! Keep making art! You guys are super cool 😸!
I couldn't be more honored to be apart of this amazing community!
(I can't say how long this hyperfixation is going to last, but I have a feeling it'll keep me coming back!
I'm drawn to this game by a combination of its incredible art, characters, writing, and philosophy!
Expect more of my art, writing, and theories of Slay the Princess!)
Huge fan of when characters refers to Narrator as "Mr. Narrator" there's just something funny about it... heheheh..
IT'S NOT JUST NARRATOR HE'S SO STUPID HAHhahahAHhahhaAehehehehee..
Love love love the way the voices are all their own distinct personalities but there's those little ways they bleed into each other that show they all come from the same person. Or god in this case.
Each voice is its own unique captured experience shaped by the circumstances that created them as much as the vessels are, they just manifest differently because The Long Quiet is not built to change and to grow, so instead of adapting himself he takes the old parts of him and tucks them away in his subconscious, listens to them and the new insights on the world they give his otherwise stationary perspective. He learns, but he is not bound by who he was before.
The voices all capture distinct reactions to the situations, but theres moments where you can see them bleed together, moments where the person they belong to shines through because they're not quite so different as they initially appear. Cold and Stubborn with their disregard for the body as an entity that needs to function the way a normal body should, Skeptic and Opportunist both analysing a situation to find the perfect time to strike back, Broken and Smitten both desperate for The Princess to see them and to make them whole even when she hurts them, Paranoid and Cheated in their suspicion and their manipulation of the construct, the list goes on.
Somewhere in the middle, all these unique perspectives bleed together in a way that makes it believable they came from the same source and I just think that's neat. I can believe Cold and Smitten are both faces of the same god because, well. Human nature is complicated, and both Cold and Smitten have that same single minded contempt for The Narrator that binds them together even when their existence seems to contradict each other.
A mind is a fascinating, spiralling thing, and nobody is able to be described in just a few sentences. The Long Quiet is opportunistic and loving, enduring in the face of hardship and broken by circumstance, the god created to kill death and just the unlucky guy who happens to be stuck on a path in the woods.
And at the center of it all, they're The Hero. The voice to which all other voices lend a piece, however small, one of the only voices who will never directly oppose The Long Quiet's decisions because within him is the capacity to make all those choices and more.
There's something beautiful about the way The Long Quiets mind unfurles throughout the routes, how it helps you understand what's going on both more and less
writing is so fun
also we fucked up as a society the moment we started telling teens and aspiring artists to conflate being an artist with building a brand as if the two things are inextricable. the name of the game if you want to share your art is to work a job and sell yourself as aesthetizied content. back in my day we could just POST SHIT. to deviantart! what the fuck!
didn't know if I wanted to post these since they're just shading warm ups but. whatever. go my yuri
For all of you looking for a book with a small, but very chaotic fandom
And a playlist that i made (hastily, because im bad about making playlists)
