#itd be fun to make this an actual story methinks

i keep forgetting this is tumblr and i can just share whatever

Have my silly little Spiritfarer as TF2 mercs idea thingy that sprouted simply because i was fixating on both in the same time frame.. I have my who's what, along with my reasonings and whatever else under the cut :)

warning, this is scatterbrained and i also have Not done my research this is all mostly based off of vibes

My brain said i would be limiting to two spirits per class, so it's not completly even since there's not enough spirits to fill both teams. I could use some of the off ship characters too tho... haven't been on that

Anyways, to start off, we have:

Stella as a Scout/Ms. Pauling. I kinda had is as a tie since she seems to fit both? She runs around doing athletic feats, wears a hat, and is a general nuciance to the public (at times). She can also double jump, Irrefutable Evidence right there! I also have a much easier time imagining Stella as a scout than whaterer pauling does lol. Plus she gets called scout by Bruce, which is something i love. For the Pauling Arguement, she is the playable character in the game, so it feels kinda weird to mix her in with the other spirits (for whatever reason). She also, more so, does a lot of things (which is part of the game mechanic but still) for the others, an obligation a scout wouldn't have to meet. Especially for both teams! Also that. She would be interacting with both teams, so it'd be tough as a member of one to peacfully interact with the other. I'm thinking it'd be a change from one role to the other. Either she starts as a Pauling/admin's asisstant/whatever, and then one way or another transfers to a scout, or she starts as a scout on the battlefield and somehow ranks up out of it. I think i like the second idea better, but oh well. I probably won't ever fully flesh this out anyways.

Daffodil is still just Stella's cat, no change there

Gwen is a Spy. She's the whole spark of this idea lol. I just saw her and was like: spy tf2 vibes fr, and here we are. What can i say, she smokes, she's posh, she looks like she could most definately stab you. 10/10. I say she's still Stella's childhood friend.

Atul is a Soldier. He hops. That's not all but that's the main reason. He's a very boisturous fella, and a loud one too!

Summer is a Sniper. I dunno, maybe it's cuz she's a snake and a plant, spirituality person. It works for me. She could totally snipe someone.

Astrid would be a Heavy. Strong, dependable, intelligent. I feel like the role of a heavy fits her greatly.

Alice as an Engineer. No matter where i put here i felt awkward since how could i put a sweet old hedgehog lady onto a battlefield?? This felt like my best bet lol. If anything, she would work as a support class with a lower requirement for mobility.

Gustav is a Medic. Look at him.

Giovanni just feels like a Demo. He's got that brash, lively attitude and a compulsive behaviour to match.

Bruce would be a Scout. He's shown at a hummingbird, small and gone with a flash. He also has the personality for sure.

Mickey could be a Heavy. Strong and silent (at least in-game). Bruce and Mickey would still be brothers, as they should be.

Beverly would also be a Medic. Is it because she's a bird? Honestly, probably! Her personality also meshes well with the medic class

Buck is a Soldier. Not sure where i pulled this one from but he's a soldier.

Stanley is a Pyro. Childish and a big imagination. Because he's a literal child but still.

Jackie would be a Demo. He's got that loud, sharp, self-hating vibe that only a demoman could contain.

Daria as a Sniper. Isolated, spiritual. Plus she's a flying critter and higher grounds are good for sniping. I don't really know what else she'd be. It seems like the best option since a sniping spot would be out of the way of a loud battle.

Elena would be a great fit for The Administrator lol. I almost forgot about her. My leftover roles on the list didn't seem like they would work for her minimalist personality anyways.

There is no personality changes or whatever. Just basically these characters in the spots of the others.

I have a lot less then i thought i did, but that makes sense lol. I've had ideas for drawing them but not the motivation :/ I'm also unsure if it would be better to give the spirits human designs or just leave them as their respective animals. Who knows if i'll work on this more... I just wanted to get this idea out! I might add more stuff later

Here's some of the sketches i did when i was still playing spiritfarer

Also this picture I sent to my friend while making references because it's just so silly to me???!?? What??? Swag Deer Lady vs French Man

#this is like a little game to me now #what tf2 class is this character? lets find out! #even if the content is nowhere near the same vibe! #its like taking two figurines from different toysets and making them play together #or making lps toys play war #this was also like a couple months ago so i dont remember all of my reasonings #all i know is that i love gwen and she has spy energy #thank you for coming to my ted talk #itd be fun to make this an actual story methinks #if i had the skill or energy to write #oh well #spiritfarer #tf2 #crossover #misc tep

🐈‍⬛ romie and/or wallace ^_^

i was like omg black square emoji is one of ur faves??!! before realizing thats probably. the black cat emoji I LOVE THAT ONE TOO ITS SO CUTE ill set it as my status rn actually

i wanted to do a romie one today but i dont have much to say that we havent already talked about methinks... ACTUALLY his childhood is still so fascinating to me and i think his arc w tabitha has a lot of potential to be really cool and help him be LESS repressed for once like we know he has a therapist? which. does he talk about the transgender alliance w them LOL?

AND OK but what if.. u know how w his ex they broke up over that movie he hates? wouldnt it be nice if w tabby she kinda encourages him to pursue his creative interest? like maybe invite him to tell her about what kinda movie HE'd make. like he might not be out there doing script writing but letting him develop ideas and listening to him :) THATD BE REALLY CUTE RIGHT? LIKE THE PARALLEL? of his ex where she was kinda dismissive of how much he cares bout movies if now w tabby she encourages it? to be fair i forgot the specifics of the thing w the turkey movie i just remember their breakup being fucking hilarious. BUT YE LIKE plus i wanna know what kinda insane story hed come up with hes so repressed and unhinged his potential movie plot would 1. reveal a LOT about him themes wise and 2. it would make absolutely no sense (VERY positive i love nonsense art)

ok but actually... SORRY IM TYPING A LOT? i got thinking bout romie hypothetical movie script and im invested. but ok so id LOVE for it to have fucked up death themes cause im a death theme freak i love death themes. what if its a death game actually? i know its kinda cool to talk about now w squid game but i mean straight up battle royale type death game (<- still hasnt read battle royale). and itd reflect a lot of his emotional state regarding roy corp, like how he feels about hte competitive and high pressure environment. maybe hed think his death game movie is funny and tabitha is like no thats really dark and depressing babe whats wrong with your brain (loving). AND u could have his dog motif in it cause idk its a dog eat dog world something something maybe the survivor.s gets eaten by a wolf or whatever so theres not even a true winner in the end and it was all in vain. i dont know him well enough to know if that kinda thing would appeal to him as a writer though but i think the ending should absolutely leave you like "what? uh? what? UH? ok." like u think theres a lot to think about but its actually kinda shallow (but is it??). anyway his hypothetical movie would absolutely have his dog theme in it i NEED it to be so overwhelmingly and genuinely HIM while hes oblivious to that fact. u know?

like imo art WITHIN a story should have that kinda role of... a mirror thats way too honest. or perhaps a bit warped. but it should absolutely give u a look into the artist.s AND audience that u wouldnt get otherwise. like hypothetically if one of the siblings got wind of the hypothetical movie idea and DIDNT catch that its painfully, blindingly, roman exposing himself thatd say a lot about their relationship w romie also. u know? thatd be really fun to see is all i love art o(-< hi. i hope tumblr user romantabs will like my romantabs opinion

#THANK YOU for sendin me asks for these u are a cherished friend n i hope ur days been going well actually #ask #romantabs #🐈‍⬛
