Analyzing Cog in the Machine
Okay so now that the new song for IEYTD 3 has been released I want to analyze it, so lets jump right in.
[Verse 1] "You showed me the door While I'm breaking it down Even you can't ignore The new world that I found"
( this describes how Dr. Roxana Prism was kicked out of the agency, maybe after discovering something she shouldn't have)
"Forging a fire While I'm searching within All that's left is who's right And who pays for the sin"
( this most likely shows how she view the agency as people who carelessly wast human life without consequence)
[Chorus] "No breaking down, no giving up No more accepting just good enough I have a world to make Unbreakable rules to break I'll build a castle, I'm the queen You're just a cog in my machine"
( this shows us her outlook on life, that she is done being a cog in the machine and that if the agency wont let her make her perect world than she will do it herself)
[Verse 2] "You're the best of the best Well, let's see if it's true I'm less than impressed I've built better than you"
( this verse has her specifically addresing the player, agent Phoenix, taunting them)
"I'vе made you before I can takе you apart I'll reach into your core And I'll rip out your heart"
( this part of the verse is very interesting to me as it makes me wonder if at some point in the game she will do just that, she was the one to give us the implants that allow for telekinesis, will she at one point take it away?)
[Bridge] "Gears of change will grind in strange ways Tearing down the walls we make Now for you Another form of control Understand what I do Is the work of a soul"
( I think this line is her justifying her actions saying that what she is doing is for the betterment of people and that she herself has a soul unlike the agency)
Thank you all for reading! To conclude, I think in the game Dr. Roxana Prism will be a far more sympathetic villain than those in past games, a woman who only wants to save people with her machines but has gone too far and needs to be stopped. Hope you all enjoyed and I cannot wait to see the full game.
omg omg omg omg omg!!!!!! Ladies and Gentlemen this is not a drill everybody spread the word!
HOW WE FEELIN, BOYS???
I put this under a cut because i wanted to
anyways I looked into the website's source code and found out that this guy?
his name is robutler. I love him
I expect you to die au?
okay, this fun little idea has been sping in my head all day and no one else I know cares about IEYTD so I'm just gonna talk about it here.
Imagine right after the events of the second game. Both Phenix and Juniper survive and get picked up by Zoraxis. On the way, they are both put inside a transport box and have to work together to escape, cue hijinks as Juniper has to guess what Phenix is trying to communicate, all while they both learn to trust each other.
It could end with them getting rescued, an adorable moment between Phoenix and the Handler, and Phoenix defending Juniper, with him than joining the agency.
or it could end with them meeting Zoraxis, with Juniper and Phenix fearing for their life. I like to imagine that right before seeing them, Juniper gives Phenix their mask so that they can keep their identity a secret ( up until this point they would have used it to cover up the burn scars on their face from the mask).
It's not much but I thought it would be a cute/funny sitcom-like situation with Juniper being stressed and Phenix deciding to take revenge by being as annoying as possible. With a few heartfelt moments of understanding mixed in for good measure.
What do you think, tiny man?
Fineeeeeeeee. But don’t expect me to clean up you guys messes.
Can I have lil' John Juniper?
you’re going to have to share custody with @warden-draws-sometimes since he asked for JJ at the same time as you but tbh that’s probably a good thing since lil JJ needs constant attention or else he will start destroying the furniture
WAIT I DONT WANNA DEAL WITH HIM ON SUNDAYS! HE HAS ENOUGH ATTENTION /j

Since people are yoinking your silly little guys again *very bad trumpet noises* I claim Fabricator thank you
@phoenix-and-found-family (all of this is silly by the way)
ooh, i’ve never drawn Fabby in the little guy style! careful, she might stab you with that needle…
Admitting Time
I was terrified of ieytd when I was first introduced to it. The logo looked creepy to me and the title of the game made me think it was some horror game (I didn’t buy it or watch the trailer at the time) and I just…appeared in an office. The first thing I did was light a cigarette:)
Also, I almost never play ieytd 1 because of frickin CHARLIE CALIENTE! He scares me so bad!!! I’m just minding my business, when this guy just pops out of an elevator and points a flamethrower at me!!!!!!
Me: WHAT WAS THAT My cousin: What was what? Me: A guy with no face just flamethrowered MY face off!!!! My cousin: Did you lock the elevator doors Me: After this I’m locking ALL the elevator doors!
(This was what happened according to my cousin)
“Wha-…sure..Pheonix has done worse things with a microwave.”
Pheonix giggles “It’s true, we had half of the agency building into ashes for weeks!”
(this is @phoenix-and-found-family btw you have anon asks turned off (no judgement here))
[Well, this was just peachy. They had plans tonight, too. It wasn't their first interrogation, not by a long shot, but they wanted out of here.]
"Hey, dude?" [They said, interrupting the person currently trying to "Good Cop" them.] "I'll tell you the whole truth if you get someone else to do this."
"...I'd like to see your version of Agent Phoenix."
”W…..which one..?”
The agent states, a little confused
“I-I’m not even gonna ask how.” She says, finishing the drink
”I’ve seen too much weird stuff in my time as an agent.”

“Been there done that.” He chuckled
“What are YOU doing HERE, hm? There’s gotta be a reason.”
Pheoness keeps drinking for the champagne bottle

The agent states, a little confused
”Yep. You’re a new one. Haven’t seen you before.”
She leans on the desk, popping a drink of champagne straight from the bottle before tossing it to Pheonix who caught it and took a sip
“We’ve met a lot of other Phoenix’s.” Pheonix states

Actually,
Kind of both....
Sooooooo the first time I was introduced to ieytd I was just this sassy lil freak.
I would act if I was actually in the game, but I based Pheoness off of my personality when I played the actual games
So I play a character I made by playing as myself basically:)
I'm curious about something.
Proof that I’m alive
I was thinking of making a fic where Pheonix is in the kinesium mines, giving a shiny rock to left robot, and before it dies, it gives it to Prism and she wears it on her neck which is only visible when she’s standing at the ruins of her robots:)
Idk maybe I’ll make it maybe I won’t

Somebody inbox me if you want to rp with me:)
Pheoness! What's your favorite shenanigan you got up to with Phoenix?
“Darn, there were so many good ones. But my ABSOLUTE favorite started with just an ordinary mission to steal some things from a Zoraxis base. One item that we specifically stole was some non lethal laxatives. And there was an ex-Zoraxis employee I still needed to get my revenge on for poisoning me😈😈”
GIYSGUYSGUYS

@eod-agent-13-12 @the-one-and-only-043 Cuddle pile :D
Wait...........
How come I never realized this
IT'S REGINALD AND PHEONIX CORE
"Who lives"
"Who dies"
"Who tells your story."
First tome on discord could you pls explain how this works?
I Expect You To Date: REBOOTED
OOC: Well, you asked for it, and it's back! There's still a few things to work out, I need to figure out how to format it to avoid burnout, but the server's ready! So without further ado, welcome back to I Expect You To Date!
The way this works is a mix between a dating sim and freeform rp. I'll usually give the player one or more options to reply with, but they'll almost always also have a [Custom] option, which allows them to write their own response.
Basic plot is, the Agency finally discovered Zoraxis's main base, and there's no one better to send undercover than good old Agent Phoenix. There are 3 Acts in the game, and 8 routes, selected at the end of Act 1- 6 familiar faces and 2 secret routes.
With all that said, I hope you'll join me in foiling Zoraxis's top brass's most dastardly plot yet- remaining single.
Ta-ta, agents! Roz will resume posting soon.
YESYESYESYESYES
DATING SIMMMMMMMM
OOC Post: I mentioned recently the IEYTD dating sim server that Roz originated from. I’m sure some of you are curious about that.
Should I restart the server and post an invite here, or should I just tell you all the stuff I wrote for it?
Playing ieytd for the first time IN MONTHS
I swear I know I’m gonna cry just by hearing Reggie’s voice
It feels like forever since I was I this fandom 😭😭😭😭😭😭
”Well, sure. Why not?”
She pushes extroverted Pheonix in front of her who was vibrating with happiness
“13-12 has people, Firebird. Go talk to em.”
“OKAYOKAYOKAYOKAY!”
I Expect You To Party
A party set to celebrate both Christmas and the New Year across dimensions / universes.
(Feel free to add what each of your Phoenixes / EOD Agents will do.)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
A Christmas and New Year party set in a different dimension or universe is definitely a novel experience for Agent Phoenix, or in this case Agent 13-12. With the influx of multiple Agent Phoenixes, they decided to use a different code to distinguish themself from... well, every other Agent Phoenix.
They held out their hand, telekinesis activating as they plopped down the mango float, a dessert made of graham, whipped cream, and mangos.
"Too bad you're caught up on some things, Handler Sir~" They chuckled, touching their earpiece as their handler decided to protest, something about them giving him paperwork to do.
It only served to make them laugh.
In the background, a younger agent with blue hair was yelling at a different agent to get down from the Christmas tree.
"Wraith, I swear! Get down from there!" Agent Typhoon huffed. His handler, Elira (more affectionately called Ellie), just watches in the distance. She is beside another handler named Blue, discussing their kids agents' missions.
Blue's agent, Shadow, is sneaking off to form her own plan, a grin plastered on her face as she approaches Typhoon.
Another Phoenix, affectionately called Wyvern, approaches 13-12 as the latter was busy placing the food down.
Neither of them acknowledge the implicit food theft due to another Phoenix, Bluenix or Nix for short, taking control of the music and drawing their attention.
"You're doing that to spite them, aren't you?" A different agent, codename Smitten, with blonde hair and green eyes sat close to a different Phoenix who goes by "Sage" eating in the corner. He sighed upon seeing the spoon and fork floating at the distance.
Just arriving at the place was Agent 043, another Phoenix who immediately saw their baby siblings and went to them immediately.
Some other Agent Phoenixes have been invited and the party is about to start.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Tagging by order of appearance:
Agent Wraith (@agentwraith) , Handler Blue (@blueorchid-95), Agent Shadow (@agent--shadow), Agent Wyvern (@phoenix-and-found-family), Agent Bluenix (@brain-is-a-toaster), "Sage" (@definitelyunhingedagentphoenix), Agent 043 (@the-one-and-only-043)
Agent 13-12, Agent Typhoon, Handler Ellie, and Agent Smitten belongs to me.
Other people who got invited but not sure what they'll do yet. (No pressure to join in. But feel free to invite other people!)
