I've had this stupid lil thought for about a year now. So I play games on calls a lot while screen sharing, and like. What if the game protagonist could hear the call. What would they think.
Like does Siffrin have to hear my s/o (im not pinging them for this but they'll probably see it anyways-) wonder how tf I forget how rock paper scissors works while Siffrin is going through the horrors
Did Jimmy have to hear my entire discord server sing california girls to cope during all the deaths
Was my friend group basically just voices when my s/o played slay the princess on call
I think about this a lot
this was funnier in my head.
This sucks so bad, I need to [remembers suicide jokes only worsen my mental health] slay the Princess. If I don’t, it will be the end of the world.
The moon will sing a song for me, I loved you like the sun
Bore the shadows that you made with no light of my own
I shine only with the light you gave me
The blade is your implement. You'll need it if you want to do this right.
hit the slay button!!!

Remember when slay the princess said "it's completely impossible to make a world without change or pain. It's completely impossible for a relationship to always stay the same or to never have conflict. By trying to avoid ever displeasing your partner you are actively making it less healthy." And "You need to care about other people. You do not have to forgive them. But you still have to care." And "The only way to get out of this cycle is to realize when someone else is a victim of it too, even if they aren't someone you will ever like." And "At the end of the day, most people are just trying to survive." And "The line between toxic and victim is borderline on invisible." And "Change and stability aren't mutually exclusive." And "You can grow, you can change, you can fix this conflict, but you have to be alive to do it. No matter what, you have to live." And "There will never be a perfect victim. Even the kindest person will snap under the right circumstances. Judging whether or not someone deserves help based on how they handle extreme pain is kind of fucked up, actually." And "It is never going to be possible to stay the same. This is a good thing." Because personally I'm eating my own hands

from the very first playthrough of the Slay The Princess this was an idea I wanted to draw
(spoilery talk under the cut)
i couldn't stop thinking about The Shifting Mound and The Long Quite basically representing Yin and Yang:
both are part of one whole
both are opposite and controversial but at the same time alike
both compliment each other
both carry parts of each other inside themselves
both together they create harmony of life and death and existance
i love this game so muuuch yaaay!
not me trying to cope with the fact i finished stp by compulsively making content/animatics/art in general (it’s not working 🤭🤭🤭🤭)
Wow! I can't believe that we're both narrators from indie games who's protagonists often don't listen to what we tell them to do!!
drew the fellas for valentimes :3
Would you be willing to draw Thorn bandaged up and comfortable? (I felt so bad for her just seeing the thorns sticking everywhere)
Yeah I did too😭
(She's eating a lollipop not a cig btw)
Crappy Character Analysis, part 6
I've been putting off this one, simply because I love Contrarian, everyone loves Contrarian, and I was worried I wouldn't do him justice. BTW, if you haven't read any others, I'd recommend at least reading Cold and Stubborn before this one.
part 1 (Broken)
part 2 (Skeptic)
part 3 (Cold)
part 4 (Paranoid)
part 5 (Stubborn
VOICE OF THE CONTRARIAN
Contrarian is my favorite voice, so let’s just get that out of the way. I’m doing my best to give him a fair analysis, but if there are any flaws, that’s probably why. I’d say a good 40% of Contrarian content was added after the Pristine Cut, probably because the fandom loved him so much. He basically lives up to his name. Any time someone says something, he immediately tries to counter it. Slay the Princess? No thanks. The world beyond yours is beautiful? Eh, it ain’t all that. Take the knife? Only to throw it out the window! In fact, throwing the knife out the window is his MO, seeing as he does it in three separate chapters (Stranger, Razor (No Way Out), and Fury (through Adversary)) and the only reason he doesn’t do it in the other two chapters he shows up in is because there are no windows for the blade to go out of. He also dabbles in bending reality, working together with Stubborn to keep you moving without your muscles. He is also, objectively, kind of a jerk. He calls Hero a baby for being upset at whatever abomination you see in the Stranger, refuses to give the Narrator vital information, antagonizes Stubborn by calling him weak, and then proceeds to manipulate him into throwing away your weapon, and then delivers the line that goes to the affect of “Oh, are we lying? I’m happy to be here, and I like all of you.” Of course, he does turn a new leaf at the end of the Stranger, and if you get the Stranger’s cabin at the end, he seems to have matured since the last time you’ve seen him.Contrarian exists to amuse himself. You get him by not taking the consequences of your actions seriously (not going to the cabin, fighting the Adversary unarmed, not taking the blade/stabbing yourself in the Razor, cutting your throat in the Tower). This attitude makes him careless. He wants to sow chaos, start conflicts, and just have fun. His commitment to the bit helps you survive and fight in the Apotheosis and the Fury. Who cares if you die? You were going to anyway. Contrarian doesn’t fully realize the effects his recklessness has on others until it is far too late. In the Razor, if he throws the knife out the window, he thinks of it as a funny bit. But after he realizes that there will be no getting it back, he admits he might have acted too hastily. Something similar happens in the Stranger. There may be a more deep-seated root to his nature, as well. One that most people miss. Contrarian is a contrarian out of frustration. You tried running away from the problem, and now it got worse. Now you have to face it, and he isn’t happy. If he has to confront his own mistakes, well, he isn’t going to make it easy. If he has to be miserable, so does everyone else. He reminds me of Cold, in a way. One turns to indifference, while the other turns to indignation. This point is accentuated by a line in the Stranger ending, where he confesses that he thinks of himself as the worst part of you. In the Stranger, it takes the entire world collapsing in on itself for Contrarian to fully realize the harm he’s caused. Once he sees the bigger picture, he shows remorse, and suggests that you try and help the Princess. In the Stranger ending, when you return to her cabin, he’s had more time to cool down and reflect, and he shows a surprising maturity, holding back on yeeting the blade. This may be the only voice who got significantly more content in the Pristine Cut, yet whose depth lies in pre-Pristine Cut content.
Got bored and decided to draw as many Hero designs as I could remember
hope i did everyone well :)
too scared to tag anyone but if they find this then yeah 👍
Being a slay the princess fan is stupid as fuck because I’m like yeah that disembodied voice is my blorbo. Yeah I know he’s an abstract semisentient representation of a thought but he’s my favorite character. Embarrassing.
I need to see the aftermath of Smitten using a blow dryer on Hunted. Fluffy Hunted. Please and thank you
He flüffy
The Chosen One
A little bonus:
(Process post should be posted alongside this one!!)
They're Best Friends, fight me on this!
Going feral over "this is a love story" because it so is.
How could the Narrator tear a god in two and expect them not to love each other? Not to love the first thing they knew that wasn't them, not to love that lost part of themself? Maybe it's because hating yourself is such a human thing, it's impossible to imagine a being torn in two loving its lost parts. Even when they're not perfect. Especially when they're not perfect.
Even when you get the worst outcome on a route, or one of the vessels with so many reasons to be angry, The Shifting Mound still loves The Long Quiet because they're gods, and death is to them what a paper cut is to us and this too shall pass and she loves him through all of it.
They are everything. They can be as good as they can be bad. They can love each other and hurt each other and those things are rarely mutually exclusive. They can meet afterwards and talk with kindness. There isn't a single part of them that doesn't have the potential to be something better. There isn't a single part of them that doesn't have the potential to be something worse. They're the same entity. Theyre the only different being the other has ever known. This is a love story.
