Hey The Stanley Parable fans, I hope you find this dream summary amusing.

So a few nights ago I had a dream that Stanley had somehow died in the parable but the Narrator didn't notice so the devs where scrambling to replace him like a goldfish before the narrator found out. I got chosen as the replacement Stanley and the Narrator didn't notice a thing. Funny thing is I had pointed out that I look nothing like Stanley (short, black, and a teenager), so the Narrator would definitely notice. The devs just told me in response that, "That dude is so old a forgetful he hasn’t noticed that we've replaced Stanley 100 times already, he won't notice now."

#LOLL NOOO #this is canon tho #even though though its a dream. i feel like narr would forget 100 times

im a little scared to share this but this is a crack au inspired by the apartment ending. basically stan’s wife IS the narrator

i mean it was SUPPOSED to be a crack au but then it became angst very quickly 😭

basically stan and wifey got trapped in the parable together, only difference was stanley kept resetting whenever he triggered an ending and she was forced to remember everything. she gradually transformed into a cocky narrator over (several decades?) and stanley doesnt remember any of it.

and yes i suppose she uses any pronouns at this point. she doesnt rlly care. does she even have a name? i dunno. thats been forgotten too. she'd always been The Narrator, but The Narrator wasn't Stanley's love anymore. maybe someday he could tell stanley, because there's no one else that he loves more deeply.

time for details and headcanons :D

- she worked as a journalist, but was far more interested in being a creative writer but couldn’t find the time. she’s fluent in french and bakes for fun, but stanley does most of the cooking.

- i don’t know how they ended up in the parable, they worked together countless times to find a way out, but every time stanley managed to cross an area and trigger an "ending", he'd show up back in his office, completely forgetting everything that happened. it continues like this for many years. she developed a script because it was too exhausting to keep up with filling stanley in every time.

- her voice changes dramatically from years of speaking. in this omnipotent state, she could change so many things about herself, and she could let other things go, like her physical body. she'd adopted the deeper, signature Narrator voice to help her detach herself from what life used to be. because hoping hurts when every death, every escape, every end is meaningless. it was far easier to see herself as a narrator with a script, rather than trying to fight and hope for things to change.

- it's why she'd sometimes leave stanley in his office to push buttons for months. it's why killing him through the countdown sequence had become less stressful and more maddening, more sadistic, more satisfying. it's why they're so attached to stanley, but also roots for his demise. why they appreciate his choices, why they loathe his attitude and disobedience.

- sometimes, she still wants to tell stanley how much she still loves him. how much she wants to go back to the way things were. to confront him. tell him the truth. she couldn't do it on every run, because it hurts when stanley forgets. so whenever stanley chooses a specific route, the cargo lift, she tries to prepare herself to tell stanley the truth, just this once. she hoped that it would ease the pain and exhaustion, but she can never get the courage to. stanley is always so interested in reuniting with his wife when he gets on that cargo lift, but once theydo that, what happens then? the game was just going to restart, as much as she yearns for even just a minute of time with him, the way they used to be.

- she’d given up on that hope. the narrator mocks stanley. he no longer had a life partner, united through their rings and their vows. not in the conventional sense, anyway. now, they were divorced, but also united in a painfully twisted way, one unknowing and the other doomed to boil in futile hopes. besides, he’d grown to know a lot about stanley these past few decades. his predictable mannerisms, the way he reacts to being tricked, or threatened, or cornered. the things he does to survive. he wouldn't have been able to learn these things if it weren't for the limits he could push upon him, with the promise that he'll be completely fine in the end, another blank slate with which he could do whatever with.

- in the epilogue, when stanley had been set free, he never learns the truth. and maybe that’s a good thing

anyway heres a more lighthearted doodle i couldnt fit anywhere lol

au or not i figured i’d make a wife design and i knew without a doubt that she had to be a total girlboss

#the ring is Narrator Yellow™️ #i tried to incorporate the purple glasses too bc i thought it’d be cute #the stanley parable #ultra deluxe #i was struggling on deciding on pronouns so if its a bit confusing thats me bad LOL #again this is just an au and not a headcanon/theory kahhdjsjc #oh this is totally rooted in stanarrator i think i just made it sexier KFHKSHFJS #because if this were to also take place in my escape au she could get her body back but now she has a Sexy Narrator Voice #please meditate on this idea

skip button ending animatic. enjoy

#hey check out how hard i can cry

I saw this Nike ad on Pinterest while looking for references and I saw this and couldn’t help but think

‘Stanley and the adventure line’ over and over again.

I’m thinking of drawing it but eh who knows maybe

(Feel free to use this as a reference too, it would be so cool)

#the stanley parable but it’s a rom-com #the way i’d eat that shit up 😭

[mon-cheri-stanley]

a bunch of tsp doodles feat. headcanons and an au i made up lol

the real world/escape au here is basically just your average stanley has/had a life outside of the parable au. here he disappeared for on a couple of years, even though it might’ve felt like decades within the parable. he may or may not have a wife, don’t know if they found each other again after he disappeared since she might have moved out when he did, but thats assuming that she wasnt just someone Narr made up

if the narrator was going to continue to exist, here he posesses stanley’s body, kinda like how venom lives in eddie. and he can speak with and control his body too, so he deals 5000 damage to the people used to him signing when he starts speaking with a stuffy british accent. however, he lets stanley control his own body since he prefers letting him make the decisions.

mariella more or less remembers her experience w the narrator/her role in the insanity ending, but regardless she actually believes stanley when he tells her theres a narrator in his head. she’s spoken with the narrator once and now they hate each other

also!! i just thought of this but what if the narrator has no idea how human occupations work. like he’s aware of basic careers like. cop. firefighter. cowboy. astronaut. he described stanley to have a job at ‘pressing buttons’ because of his real job (accountant) and Narr couldn’t be bothered w the specifics. so he’s absolutely distraught when they finally escape the parable only for stanley to go back to the exact sane thing he’d been doing (but somehow worse)

also ive joined the speech bubble narrator bandwagon bc it’s too good and i’m too lazy to make an actual design for his body

#sorry if my handwriting is ✨illegible✨ #the stanley parable #ultra deluxe #bucket #narrator #mariella #yeah theyre coworkers #i have no idea if there is a similar au to this but for now ig ill calle this realworld/escape au LOL #i just realized i didnt write exactly HOW they escaped but... im not sure either so its ambiguous

[mon-cheri-stanley]

im going through all the narrator's lines and the delivery of the ending of the door 430 achievement bit?? his voice just transforms- like its not even a coherent smooth voice he goes completly feral and it sounds like 'yEEeè̷̦͈́́ě̶̖̍̑ȇ̵̘͆̚e̴̜͚͇̔ē̸̤̑Ė̸̡͂̽s̷̛͔̰!¡!!!

French Song in Memory Zone Lyrics (Rough Translation)

I’m in the Memory Zone Alone in the rain at dawn And I’m just waiting for you, my love

It’s there, in the Memory Zone where I remember the days Where I met you, my love

But here it is also Where I remember leaving From The Stanley Parable

It was in 2013 A very good video game At least according to the papers, my love

Nothing more nostalgic Than the audience price Who is received at the IGF, my love

Here in the Memory Zone Gathers the ghost vise From The Stanley Parable

We are in the Memory Zone And here I am taken aback Don’t force me to choose, my love

I liked yesterday’s version Will the news do the trick? The more I think about it, the more I lose you That’s why now I roam the Memory Zone
