210 said that 0 was always destined to be lonely.

Vertin cannot help but agree. Burdened by truths only she knows, holding the lives and fates of others in her hands.

Others would want to disagree with her. Sonetto would try to prove that she would never leave but in the end she is a cog in the machine. Regulus is loud and loyal but she serves her own goals. Druvis has nowhere else to go but Vertin is incapable of being a home. Sotheby is simply a saint but cannot see Vertin's sins.

The people who go through her suitcase only pass through.

Vertin remains.

The number 0.

Neither positive, nor negative. A neutral, godly party. Untouched and capable of giving value to others but incapable of gaining value herself.

She'd hoped that a singular imaginary number would end her loneliness and give her value.

But Schneider is lost, gone forever.

An imaginary number that is now long dead.

How long had Vertin thought she was an integer that she could give value to? But she was wrong. She could not give value to Schneider and neither could Schneider give value to her.

Maybe that was what made Schneider shine so brightly, that made Vertin think she could grasp her.

But Schneider is dead. An imaginary unattainable number and Vertin is simply 0.

Lonely for all eternity.

thinking about schneider again and how she has truely been through A LOT.

ultra religious catholic family from 1920's italy, born as the thirteenth child, in a storm, her mother remarried(divorce is NOT seen so highly in those times especially when youre ultra religious roman catholic, wouldnt be surprised if she was blamed for that). seen as a bad luck. slap in some religious trauma where she wonders if god hates her.

outright neglected and malnourished because there were too many mouths to feed family and very little food to go around in a country so extremely impoverished at the time. then her family moves to chicago usa of all places, now she has to deal with racism ontop of being an immigrant girl who didnt speak a lick of english. had to learn it by force, had to find odd jobs to support her family. considering shes based off a showgirl, very possible that was one of her many jobs to keep herself and her family afloat. so add sexism and the very real and common threat of sexual harrasment she nost likely dealt with. then she goes into bootlegging, though its helping her family..... this brings gangsters and cops and rival bootleggers who dont like competition.

so she had to defend herself and her families future. she had to sacrifice her own principles. shes not a killer, shes not a cold blooded unfeeling murderer. she loves and feels so deeply, especially for her family that she HAD to do the unthinkable, went against everything she was raised to be just to support them. even if it meant killing and lying and blackmailing.

oh and dont forget the religious trauma that made her think next to nothing about herself. she thinks herself as a sinner, cursed and left by god. the way she talks about herself obviously imply she thinks she deserves punishment.

i cant stop thinking about this girl

Some drawings I made for some starting characters in Reverse 1999! It took me a while to get into it (I dropped it during the intro sequence at one point and only picked it back up around last month) but I'm really enjoying it at the moment, now if they could continue polishing their localization...

Back on my hisuian zorua!Drayton train, i just had a thought….in the AU drayton joins the gang into area zero (nothing more then indulgence on my end ) but um! I’m a violet player! A Pokemon from the far past meeting Pokemon from the far future…..Drayton doesn’t like area zero….gives him the creeps and the paradox mons give him uncanny valley vibes, they are setting off ALL of his Pokemon instincts, he’s rather quiet and out of it during the trip in area zero as he tries to keep a grip on his humanity and not lash out at any wild Pokemon or his friends 

Oh mood yeah that'd fuck him up hahah

Just seeing robotic versions of his pkmn friends, but like,, y'know thinking that despite how robotic they are, they're like,, there's some sort of life within them too, and it fucks him up a bit bc no that's not natural to him, I'm thinking that even the sight of Metagross kinda messes w him too, bc that mfer is basically a supercomputer hahaha

Sonetto: The most voilent character in the suitcase

No, this isn't a joke... well, it kinda is? But I also have proof that Sonetto is very violent and impulsive, despite also being the by-the-book righteous girl we know her to be.

First of all, in the epilogue, Sonetto and Regulus fight, and then Regulus falls to the ground, clutching her arm and saying it's broken. Now, we know she was just pretending, but Sonetto didn't know that, and what was her response?

I mean... if your enemy is already on the ground, and seemingly injured, why ask her to fight you again??? Wtf Sonetto. Good thing Vertin had her own agenda and prevented further confrontation.

Then, in ch1, Sonetto and Sotheby are lost in the underground Laberynth of the Walden and then finally see a stage behind a brick wall. Sotheby even remarks it looks like there's a party outside. Sonetto's immediate response? She wants to blast the freaking wall.

Again, she has to be stopped, this time by Sotheby, who reminds her that an explosion could hurt ppl and they shouldn't act so impulsively. Starting to see a pattern here?

Then, after Forget me Not delivers the "good news" and the gang escapes through the Laberynth, they run into another pair of Italians.

Schneider is carrying Marian on her back and comforting her, not to mention that the two girls look very alike. Yet, when Sonetto sees this sight, she accuses her of being the one who had been torturing Marian and then, without waiting for an explanation, immediately attacks rather violently (the game even points it out).

Granted, there are also instances where this violent side of Sonetto comes in handy, like all the times she fights the manus, but especially when she's told Vertin joined the enemy and Schneider died, and she responds by seeking vengace through combat.

Schneider even remarks that Sonetto was rather fierce during the fight.

BUT we're not done yet with Sonetto's impulsiveness! In ch3 someone is following her around at the rehabilitation center and, after unsuccessfully trying to lose them, she grabs a trash bag and puts it on their head.

Now, imo this was very reasonable and smart, since she didn't know who was following her. What was a bit more problematic however, is that she then proceeded to beat this individual, whose identity was still unknown to her btw, despite the fact that Matilda didn't attack her and was just trying to escape.

And finally... the one impulsive act that almost cost Sonetto her own life:

She broke the vow of silence and attacked Arcana in the hall of truth despite the oath she made and the fact that Arcana didn't even try to get close to them; we just see her clapping and then putting a finger to her lips to indicate silence, yet Sonetto immediately casted a spell.

Now, I don't want to be too hard on her, I know this is what she was taught to do all her life, plus it's her nature as a protective doggo to act this way, but I do think it's something she should work on.

Plus, it's kinda hilarious that a character whose signature phrase is "may the peace be with us" is anything but peaceful, don't you think? XD
