I depend on you
Some doodles on paper with pen while making Cheated’s design
Paper Princesses
Drew other people’s Voices designs
(Drew a sketch Remaking did for Hero and Oppy (love your little voices fic btw))
(Hero and Oppy’s designs by @remaking-machine , Smitten designs by @mrpristineblade , @remaking-machine , @itsonlypolite , and @phantasmatoucan respectively)
Not smart enough, not stupid enough
A battle between Oppy and Cheated would be really interesting tbh
Both of them have many tricks behind their back and would know how the counter each other
Oppy would have to be more creative with his trickery cause Cheated knows that he’s always up to something
Cheated would get his arse beat but god damn it can he counter well and be extremely durable
Love love love the way the voices are all their own distinct personalities but there's those little ways they bleed into each other that show they all come from the same person. Or god in this case.
Each voice is its own unique captured experience shaped by the circumstances that created them as much as the vessels are, they just manifest differently because The Long Quiet is not built to change and to grow, so instead of adapting himself he takes the old parts of him and tucks them away in his subconscious, listens to them and the new insights on the world they give his otherwise stationary perspective. He learns, but he is not bound by who he was before.
The voices all capture distinct reactions to the situations, but theres moments where you can see them bleed together, moments where the person they belong to shines through because they're not quite so different as they initially appear. Cold and Stubborn with their disregard for the body as an entity that needs to function the way a normal body should, Skeptic and Opportunist both analysing a situation to find the perfect time to strike back, Broken and Smitten both desperate for The Princess to see them and to make them whole even when she hurts them, Paranoid and Cheated in their suspicion and their manipulation of the construct, the list goes on.
Somewhere in the middle, all these unique perspectives bleed together in a way that makes it believable they came from the same source and I just think that's neat. I can believe Cold and Smitten are both faces of the same god because, well. Human nature is complicated, and both Cold and Smitten have that same single minded contempt for The Narrator that binds them together even when their existence seems to contradict each other.
A mind is a fascinating, spiralling thing, and nobody is able to be described in just a few sentences. The Long Quiet is opportunistic and loving, enduring in the face of hardship and broken by circumstance, the god created to kill death and just the unlucky guy who happens to be stuck on a path in the woods.
And at the center of it all, they're The Hero. The voice to which all other voices lend a piece, however small, one of the only voices who will never directly oppose The Long Quiet's decisions because within him is the capacity to make all those choices and more.
There's something beautiful about the way The Long Quiets mind unfurles throughout the routes, how it helps you understand what's going on both more and less
Another iterator made by yours truly! Her nickname is Moth and the outfit is DEFINITELY going to be redesigned in the future, but for now she has a horrid little dress <3 Her can is completely overgrown with plant life and many of the creatures have taken on fungal parasites, including some of her very own overseers. Her puppet is completely blind, so she relies heavily on her overseers and her own hearing to react to her surroundings. She's open for asks as well!
*walks into your house* its quite lovely in here i *spots a ghostly apparition* ...................well first who is that saultry little binch in the corner
Something I made while dealing with my own stuff and hoping drawing this would pick me up somehow. Maybe it worked.
FT my cat. His name is Mischief
In the depths of an old city, atop the corpse of a god long since fallen, many buildings still stand as remnants of what was once there. Lights still pulse with energy, illuminating displays of shattered glass and rotting products. Many of the rooms that were once shops or homes have been stripped of their life and then their value, now left to collect dust. Those who choose to wander into the labyrinth-like metropolis may never find their way out.
So, I've been trying to flesh out more of the lore around my TSPUD/rain world au (I really need to figure out a name for this) through art, but I'm thinking about just dropping a bunch of text posts to those who'll listen. I'm going to start counting all these guys as ocs since they cut SOOO far away from TSP. But anyways! The Restless and The Curious out and exploring an ancient city! Hopefully I'll get some more posts out with these guys soon, because it's SUPER fun to do these backgrounds.
