Disco Harmony

[Image ID: a digital watercolor illustration, fanart for the game Disco Elysium. The image feels somewhat isolating, the majority of it filled only with a blue sky, nearly empty save for some sparse clouds, plus musical notes floating around two lines, swirling downward together to visually imply whistled tunes. The thicker line is a simple, swaying dark green trail—the other, a dark orange that loops around it in a thin, twisting melody. The lines end above Harry and Kim, who are sitting on an old, rusted swingset, staring out at a car half-sunk into the icy sea before them. They are viewed from behind, near a sparsely-leafed tree in the blurry foreground. The colors around the edges of the image all fade into a soft, Pale grey, which in turn becomes wispy and transparent.]

DRAMA - The tune on your lips forms a strange, yet undeniably beautiful contrast with the surrounding bleakness. KIM KITSURAGI - The lieutenant gives you a quick glance. Then, still looking straight ahead, he joins you with a higher-pitched and slightly more melodic trill. CONCEPTUALIZATION - Two birds on a wire, whistling by the seaside. Looking at the water. And a sunken car.

🎵 Want to be free Burn, baby, burn 🎶 And the trees are green and overhanging Feather-light, free, and everlasting

Doing a bit more watercolor experimentation in Rebelle, trying to wrangle water physics. The description of this scene stuck in my brain—because unless they both knew the song, you don't "just" casually, spontaneously harmonize with someone. They're either both very good with musical improv, and/or so ~in tune~ (hehe) with each other that it Just Works. (Which, yes, it's a symbolic story element of how Kim is perfect good at being adaptably exactly what's needed, a parallel to that one trust exercise idle they do.)

Either way, this struck my brain with the idea of using swirling lines (as ya do) to visualize the song as being the most solid and "real" thing, in what would mostly be isolating, empty sky. Everything else is watercolor (with ink lineart and airbrushed fog)—transient, transparent, and taking on the texture of the canvas—but the "song" was done in solid, opaque pencil.

#disco elysium #fanart #rebelle #my art #kim kitsuragi #harry du bois #love the new collage posing feature but still wish we could flirt with Kim in-game #also those note trails took AGES to sort out #first random wiggles #then trying to find something to reference #I settled on Harry whistling 'burn baby burn'#while Kim harmonizes with the four-note section of the piano #as best as I could figure what the note lengths are #there's no way to recognize it just from looking #but I KNOW #and I like doing little details like that whenever I can #Kim's piano bit is also in the song titled Live With Me and yes please #also I like this canvas for Disco Elysium stuff #it's got a great wrinkled texture and the edges fade out perfect for the Pale #I've a comic I planned to do first but this was faster to finish

i’ve made it my personal mission whenever i reblog something to be as annoyingly long-winded about whatever i loved about it as possible, on the basis that… i like it when people do that. and also i am physically incapable of shutting up once i get on a tangent and i like art details. whoops.

#ney’s idle chatter (random textposts)#er… apologies to all the people who get like a full paragraph in their tags #or maybe not? i love it when people do that but hey to each their own #reblogs are the lifeblood of this platform and long tags are my favorite thing in the world #yes i’ll go ridiculously in depth about the most minor details of your art it is a day that ends in y after all

gina was in love with ricky ever since thanksgiving that’s so wild like she KNEW she was in love and was vulnerable and brave enough to express that to ricky without actually telling him

ricky didn’t clock that he loved her until it was too late and ended up being more down bad for her than she ever was for him

gina’s pining was more centered on heartbreak while ricky’s pining was more centered on regret

they really are the definition of girl falls first boy falls harder

#hsmtmts #rina #hsmtmts rina #ricky bowen #gina porter #ricky x gina #sorry just thinking about this really itches my brain in the best way #like wdym omg #rina’s love story was so delicately handled and incredibly detailed #dare i say top 3 love stories in cinema #anyways random thoughts #even though rina is endgame and there’s a whole season where they date and are so happy together #my mind likes to circle back to early on

I can accept basically any trans/nb reading of Jon however my personal favorites are transmasc Jon who transitioned physically and socially as early as possible and just never mentioned it to anyone cause it wasn't any of their business OR Jon being the most repressed transfem/nb in existence. They'll be talking about gender or whatever and Jon will be like "it's normal to feel totally disconnected from your gender all the time and also vaguely want boobs. That's just a guy thing I think." only for whoever they're all talking to to go "wtf no?? It's not????"

#please don't make this about j//mart or martin #only jon reading I can't accept is cis #sorry I just don't see it #idk might just be projection #but I think jon has really complicated feelings about gender that they don't know how to articulate #and they're also super private so they just. never mention it.#actually love literally any depiction of jon where they had a super wild personal life (band/mechs!jon punk!jon w/e) that they don't think #is important to mention ever. but occasionally they'll drop some random detail completely casually and then not understand why everyone els #is confused #like. I think jon's childhood probably wasn't super wild beyond the mr spider stuff #and once they started working at the institute I think they tried to lean really really hard into the boring respectable academic aesthetic #but I think uni jon was either the most dull shut-in workaholic OR doing really weird shit between classes with no inbetween #look I have a lot of jonthoughts ok?#anyway I think it's plausible that uni!jon was briefly non-repressed #actually adding to that: jon likes to break in to places to Investigate Them is practically canon to me.#ok anyway sorting tags. yeah I'm maintagging my jon mental illness #jon sims #jonathan sims #tma #the magnus archives #trans jon sims #trans jonathan sims #edit to add my new jon gender tag #jonder

I feel tumblr deleting their profile pictures for anyone but the OP and for a reblogger who actually adds text...

Taps into something in my brain psycologically.

Like...

Tumblr legit said

"Remember: You have abandonment issues, people leaving you and the fear of being forgotten."

And I'm like.

Yeah. Wow. Thanks Tumblr.

Put that on blast by deleting Profile Pictures and see how well I cope.

: D

#personal #LIKE REALLY...#I feel I'm making a mild fool of myself by a basic change #mainly cus my blog is a fun place where I reblog stuff and chat and write overly long detailed rants about fictional characters #It's the place where I play and my followers play with me #Tumblr put a bag over my head #and now im worried people forget me #or notice: oh hey i don't like that fandom i guess i'll leave i guess #i reblog so much random shit that I just love myself #so i hope you guys stay

Yippie! So silly (kinda sad) idea I had I while ago that I need to draw about again aaaa— Anyway, there were a lot details that had me thinking about stuff in certain games. Harmony of Despair has the “Helmont/Shiimon/Simon Wraith” enemies that have this ominous description of “some say this is what happened to Simon Belmont in the end”, and it’s just never mentioned again. Like damn ok that’s uh some interesting information wow uh— Also that coupled with the hanging skeletons being a reference to Simon in CV4 and also being in the hanged man position, the family heirlooms in the ghostly Dracula’s castle in Harmony of Dissonance, and the quest for Anna in Order of Ecclesia about helping her cat protect her from dark spirits that’s ended with a really sudden line about her having nightmares about a man with a whip fighting something scary, my guy is haunting the narrative and doesn’t sound like he’s doing so great 💀.

So the Ghost Simon concept was born and uh here he is I guess lol. Part of it also came from the idea that we’ve already seen a ghost companion in the series in Wind (if you know you know), but what if there was one you had to help that was a little more uh what’s the word… tormented? Vengeful? Upset in general? Yeah. He’s kinda just a mix of a bunch of different ghost lore, not one in particular. Fun fact: Dulahans sometimes use their own spines as a whip :3. And in a lot of folklore Strigoi often prey on their own family members, especially the younger girls in the family. But yeah, he’s just kind of a nuisance, not really like ‘evil’ or anything. Breaks things sometimes, generally pesters people, only occasionally a minor threat. Maybe leaves bloody footprints sometimes, turns paintings crooked, writes omens on walls, ya know, average ghost activities. I like to think that the boss rush with him in HoD is what he’s been doing for a while. Maybe Juste unknowingly takes him home with some of the furniture, probably the grandfather clock lol. Idk it’s just a fun what if idea for fun tho mostly d(^^ ).

#castlevania #castlevania games #simon belmont #art post #my art #does this count as an AU?#I don’t really think it does???#it’s just some ‘what if he spooky’ funny idea idk #does this count as cringe or whatever (joke I know it’s cringe I’m just happy with it)#some of these details I would love to see more on tho like #Konami what do you mean Simon’s name can be a pun in Japanese on the word for death #what do you mean if you spell it a little differently it means Gates of Death Konami I need answers—#or don’t explain anything and give more random ominous vague information #i would appreciate it #a lot actually #please say more random spooky things about this guy #what little to no content does to a mf #Simon’s Quest is a great game (I am going insane)#should I even tag all the games I mentioned in this or is putting this on the main tags enough of a risk as it is—#anyway I wanna make more random speculation collages I’m just on and off burnt out constantly help #this is primarily for silly situations like idk Maxim asking if anyone else has seen that dead guy in the mirror they brought home lol #thinkin about the idea of a game set in the 50s about a horror movie being made about the legends of Simon #and he’s there (in spirit lol) being a complete nuisance on set #the lead actor is just trying to work and here’s some ghostly voice say ‘I would not have my hair that short ewwwww’#aaaaa I should also draw that idea damn #maybe Halloween being a thing will get me to do it (TwT )#TUMBLR JUST KICKED ME OUT OF THE APP I THOUGHT I WAS GONNA LOSE THIS WHOLE POST THAT WAS SCARY—

What if Asa has completely forgot what his father did and that is why he listens to the radio at the end of The Collection because they were talking about what his father did.

And like, by forgetting, I mean that he has blocked it out (a common trauma response). He doesn't remember it happening, and by listening to reports about the incident, he hopes that it will unblock the memories.

#this was just a random thought I had while bathing #shower thoughts-- more like bath thoughts #I honestly love the idea of Asa not exactly blocking out his childhood but having difficulty remembering stuff #he remembers his childhood and small unimportant details but he had a hard time remembering major events #or feeling like the major events didn’t actually happen and that he dreamt or daydreamed them #he daydreams so much that he can't tell if his memories are actual memories or just vivd daydreams #okay this is going off the rails #im gonna shut up and finish my bath #asa emory #arkin o'brien #the collector (2009)#the collection (2012)#slashers #slasher fandom #slasher community #horror #also since it is christmas time I am wanting to post more billy lenz stuff but I cannot think of any thing

even having friends and being in some friend groups growing up I have never felt like I truly completely belonged with a group of people irl and it should be sad but I'm just used to it so I'm not really sad about it, I think it's just how life is for me I think at this point I will always not fit as well as others do

#random but I was reflecting about this now #it would be nice to have the type of friendship tv shows portray but I'm not sure I ever did #idk #even when I had best friends the circumstances were particular #but I'm not gonna explain that in detail lmao #I mean they were best friends in my definition of the term but with one I was still on the outside #with the second one she treated me like shit almost every month #and the 3rd I was in love with her so idk if it counts #I'm not saying it's their fault btw there's something wrong with me #clearly

I've been thinking about @spicyviren 's post about Claudia preventing the sun from rising (and they made a more in-depth post today as well, which is also very good!), so last night I got curious and Googled mythology and eclipses because what if the eclipse actually happens and it's not just Viren's dream? And we know TDP likes mythological references. So...

This is so fascinating because of the "I swallowed her" comment Aaravos makes in Janai's dream.

A demon (or dragon, or-- (etc)) is eating the sun?

(*Personally, I don't think Janai's dream is necessarily accurate for telling us what happened -- but Aditi getting "eaten" by someone especially a dragon wouldn't surprise me.)

And speaking of "swallowing"...

And some of the other mythological explanations mentioned in the article I linked are also really interesting:

(The highlighting was done by Google, so it's not necessarily more important.)

And canon material, especially the Ripples short specifically, reflects a few themes here:

Abandonment - the humans are essentially abandoned by the stars (and the sun is a star): "It cannot be, wept others. The stars would not betray us!" - after the "star" falls from the sky and changes the land.

Crisis/existential threat - "With its impact came a long and terrible night: The earth bled! The seas churned! The sun and moon hid for weeks behind the sky’s screaming storm!" (Also bolded for emphasis because the sun hiding? The fact the moon does too is interesting, but the sun specifically is called out later: "And when the long, dark night had finally passed—for the sun must always rise, mustn’t it?" VERY interesting considering the sunrise mentions in S5.)

Eclipse as an act of creation - though much of the story talks about the calamity, there's also how "[the stars] had rejoiced to look down upon their newborn sea."

The Sun and Moon coupling and creating more stars - this is more of a stretch, but the Sun and Moon did get hidden together, and the Sea (of the Castout) serving as a mirror of the stars... like they're duplicating the stars, though only in image.

Mischievous acts - I personally think Aaravos is mischievous, so hmm.

One side note on the second-to-last point: if Viren learns the Star arcanum, which is very rarely understood, could that, too, be analogous to creating another star?

Anyway this all implies that perhaps a similar eclipse occurred before, when Aaravos had fallen and the Sea of the Castout was created? And we know how the Rise Again short story, which is about her pseudo-resurrection of her pet cat, correlated to S4 opening with Claudia having brought her father back to life, sort of in a repeating history sense. Aaravos's Patience story foreshadowed the fact that all he could do in S4 is wait and bide his time. Ripples could foreshadow S5 being that first "touch" that sets off greater change... and, like with the resurrection, perhaps history repeating itself, in a sense, with a potential upcoming eclipse?

And another interesting line: "The sky opened its maw and spat from its black jaws a tiny star."

It's not exactly black, but I know some people say the ridges here look like teeth...

Also, even though Sol is referring to his blindness, these lines about the Sun "never [rising] again" and an "eternal night" fit into similar themes to the eclipse and the Ripples short.

Also, just going back to the abandonment theme of the eclipse really quick--

The Midnight Star poem also talks about the stars abandoning humanity. "Elarion, unworthy whelp, / Wept as the stars turned black the sky, / They donned their masks / They turned their backs / And left Elarion to die."

(I have more to break down about that entire stanza in another post; I just want to point out the bolded parts for now.)

Now, most of these are references to the past... so what about now?

If I were to guess on how the same themes I compared to the Ripples story might apply to "current" series events...

Abandonment - Claudia feeling abandoned by Aaravos (as mentioned in the Lost Child short)? Or, alternately, Aaravos feeling abandoned (by either Claudia, after she had to flee from the battle, and/or Viren, after his rejection)?

Crisis/existential threat - IMO the biggest threat is Karim potentially joining up with Sol Regem right now. Though some would say Aaravos being close to being freed could be the threat/crisis here. But I'm an Aaravos apologist, so I am not part of that group LOL

Eclipse as an act of creation - Claudia regenerates her missing leg, perhaps?

The Sun and Moon coupling and creating more stars - Viren Star arcanum?

Mischievous acts - Aaravos again.

All of this to say-- I don't think the eclipse is just for show/because it looks cool, but if we consider the mythological beliefs surrounding eclipses, it ties in significantly to the story.

Also I leave you with a few last bits from the article that just remind me of TDP things:

"In many cultures, the darkening of the sun meant the gods were very, very angry with humanity, and about to inflict some punishment. Often, that meant that in order to appease them, you had to kill someone."

That reminds me of the stars seeming to punish humanity for daring to use magic... which is also when Aaravos gets cast down?

"The Greeks thought an eclipse meant that the gods were about to rain punishment down on a king, so in the days before an eclipse, they would choose prisoners or peasants to stand in as the king in the hopes that they’d get the eclipse punishment and the real king would be saved. Once the eclipse was over, the substitute king was executed."

This is so far off, but it reminds me of Harrow anyway? Mostly with the soulfang serpent idea of switching Harrow with someone else. Interesting.

"For the Inuits, the sun and moon weren’t a married couple but brother and sister. At the beginning of the world they quarreled, and the sun goddess Malina walked away from her brother, the moon god Anningan. Anningan continued to chase after her, and whenever he caught up to her, there was an eclipse."

Which reminds me of the line in Strangers, the short from Soren's perspective, where "Claudia had appeared and he’d done it again, a little boy chasing after his sister..."

A lot of it is probably coincidence, but it's still really interesting!
