Self portraits (and handwriting) from the different characters.
Tamino hasn't ever really been taught to draw so he's kind of winging it. The result looks much how you'd expect it to look.
Pamina's sense of what's 'cool' is about the same as a 12 year old who exclusively listens to anime soundtracks and cascada on an iPod Shuffle
Papageno was at first pretty pleased with his drawing but felt bad when it was pointed out that it wasn't particularly detailed and he took up way too much of the page
Monostatos's drawing of himself seems to be of a different cat, who's much buffer and doesn't have all his weird features... and who looks oddly like Sarastro.
The Starblazer has a penchant for stained glass and so incorporated that into the way she draws herself- perfect, angular, symmetrical, aesthetically ideal.
The Speaker, as many members of the council do, idolizes the artwork of Ancient Egypt, particularly in regard to cats (this is much the same as some humans you may know who uphold Greek sculpture to a ridiculous degree). She has learned to copy the appearance of them perfectly and uses it as historical notation
King Sarastro, in his youth, was taught some decent levels of life drawing. He doesn't like to draw and can also only really draw lifelike cats- not much of the artwork the Council commissions is abstract or figurative.
The Forsaken Molly had fun trying to make her self portrait look "as gross as possible". She didn't elaborate on what she considers gross or why she chose to take this course of action

“Why do you torment yourself so?”
They sit at the table, in the middle of the Speakers quarters.
“This conversation has happened 13 times now.” Astral replies clipped and precise in his tone. They reach for his teacup, dragging his fingers on top of the table to it so that he doesn't overshoot his grasp. The Speaker's mask remains as blank as a dreary day atop the mountains. He has always disliked that.
“You have yet to answer.” Comes the Speaker's response. His voice grates against Astrals ears, a burning sensation. They sip the tea. Cold, and diluted in flavour.
The pair are silent. Tensions like distant storm clouds loom around them.
“A mind gone insane can think no evil.” He sets down the tea carefully, singular eye working overtime to calculate the distance and depth, “I would presume you would appreciate such reassurance from me.” Their voice is cold, too focused on pronouncing the words properly to give effort to vocalizing emotion.
The Speaker sighs and leaves. Astral has made a stalemate once more. They take the teacup once more, downing it. There is no warmth to it. The flavour has turned bitter.

This was a special card I made for the_ravenmother on Twitter back in Dec 2020 as part of the @d2artevents Secret Santa that year. I had a lot of fun with this card as it was the first time i really started to heavily lean into the Vector with my cards for more than just the frame or some random shapes.
It was my first time participating in the server and in an exchange, and I was glad to get them as the person i was drawing for as I could try and make them smile.
Funny enough, she ended up having me as well for her exchange so she ended up doing this fabulous piece of Narec for me(which is still and forever my background on my phone).

We need some whisperedfaith stuff in here, I've looked and found nothing. So maybe some headcanons for Sean or Lee like with a partner or just general?
of course!! my fav is Sean, so I'll write some for him :)
Sean/Shiny Headcanons
Tumblr media
-He's actually like,,, a MASSIVE loser lmao. He tries to appear like this sadistic, cold, and manipulative cult leader, but in reality he's just a really desperate junkie. Which in a sense, he is a junkie; he's addicted to the Speaker. Like Lee said in the 'Interrogation' video, he has been listening to the Speaker's whispering in his ear for so damn long, he's addicted to it. Now, i'm not sure what the Speaker could be saying, since from Lee's experience, it was torturous, but for Sean i think it would be the opposite. So i guess the headcanon is: the Speaker feeds Sean's ego, showering him with complimentd about how good of a leader he is, or how strong he is, or anything that would appeal to him, and that's how he keeps Sean under his control.
And that makes sense, because it's the Speaker, it's an honour to even be spoken to by him, and he's getting all these compliments? He must be doing something right, he must be special.
-Also, here's just my theory/HC on why Sean of all the members got to be the cult leader: i think that Sean was the easiest to influence. I believe that as a person, he was always a bit egotistical. That might be because of childhood, or him having to harden up for some reason, (i'm too tired to make a whole theory about his childhood sorry 😭) but i think even before the cult he would act very guarded. Like he would have walls up every second as to not get hurt.
So when he learned about the The Family, he thought, 'maybe that's where i belong'. And his goal from the start would have been to be the leader, to be worshipped and loved. So he came in that cult with determination, he was hard and would do anything the higher ups told him, even hurting people if needed. So The Speaker noticed him, and he thought, 'that's my target'. His ego is easy to feed, and therefore, easy to manipulate. So The Speaker fed him with compliments, making him believe he was the chosen one.
-I actually think Sean's story is really damn sad, but also he kinda deserved it. The man left all of his family and friends, wanting to feel loved and worshiped by someone. With the delusions added on by the other cultists, he was completely blind. Although, of course, nothing is black and white, and i'm sure he knew what he was doing. He was aware he was hurting people, people that trusted him, but he didn't care, and was blinded by greed and hunger for praise. Which in hindsight, made him hated by his followers. He was rude, pretentious, and arrogant. He believed he was the Chosen, the One, the man who would create portals between worlds, and The Speaker's favourite.
But in the end, that was all in vain. Because when he was gone, he was replaced. Lexx took over, and clearly she was more loved than him. So he grew bitter, and angry, even after death. Even in 'Limbo', he was bitter and lonely. I guess that was his fate from the start.
alright sorry for the rambling :) this was actually very fun to write, although ik this post won't get much traction due to how unpopular WF is,,, but it was fun anyway. thank you for the request!🖤
