YES I Will be rebloging ALL the art of this artist I just found.
:)
I also don't understand what the f*ck he means by "They always do in the end"
Hiiii these Tower/Cold parallels haunt me!!
You can tell Tower she's meant to destroy the world, and she's like, "Yeah, absolutely, you're so right." And in Tower Fury, the Princess calls you nothing, and Cold is like "no, wait, that's true." It's just so !!!!!
Cold and Tower are not allowed to meet. Otherwise, they'd immediately figure out their exact divine natures XD
I'm also thinking about Cold's "Boohoo, it's just a body." And Apotheosis going."Your victory remains in the physical world while I am beyond." (Not direct qoutes)
My first thought was that Cold is like TLQ version of Wild, bc she's the most Shifty-y and he's the most LQ-y but he's also very Tower/Apotheosis adjacent; and while this may not be the version of Fury he felt something with, shes still Fury, and he said Fury was like him and felt something when we stabbed her.
I love how every character is a foil and mirror of at least 3 different characters. It makes analyzing them so much fun
I think they're silly. I'm rotating them in my brain together
Bonus points:
Princess gets stabbed by nothing after being forcefully removed from godhood. I wounder what exactly she understood. I think she realized that you're equal and opposite here (or in short, you're her partner god), but that's just me. The "But... I'm going to be okay, right?" I think it might bc she knows this isn't actually over, that she's not over, and maybe bc she recognizes the nothing around her as you
Also, "They always do in the end." The FUCK do you mean by that Cold????
This is a dangerous train of thought to me mainly because of Two reasons:
1. "canon is only a suggestion" I get what he's trying to say here but if you are writing a character with an already established personality OF COURSE IT MAKES SENSE TO EXPECT THEM TO BEHAVE LIKE IN CANNON.
Obviously there is room for interpretation but there's a difference between interpretation and writing an entirely new character and claiming they are one from canon (for example imagine I make a stp fic where contra is super serious and follows every order he's given and thinks he's the best of the voices)
2. "You don’t get to stick your nose in their world and tell them “hey this is not to my liking therefore I think you’re doing it wrong” when you can simply leave quietly and move on to something else you may enjoy"
This is making some rather dangerous claims like saying that commenting on a piece of art that someone posted PUBLICALLY is "sticking your nose into their world".
That every disagreement or critique made towards a work of art is meant to be an attack to the objective value of the whole thing (assuming there's something such as "objectively good or bad things")
And that just because you can decide not to consume something you have no right to express any kind of criticsm towards it.
To me this whole post just reads as overly defensive and feeling like "overly attatched" to something you made to the point where every kind of criticsm towards it feels like a personal attack to you.
unless they specifically asked, you don’t get to tell a fanfic writer you think they mischaracterized the character by the way. because the second someone writes a fanfic about a character, that character becomes the writer’s own version of the character. canon is only a suggestion, but whether or not an author will follow it / how much of canon an author will take is entirely up to them. you don’t get to stick your nose in their world and tell them “hey this is not to my liking therefore I think you’re doing it wrong” when you can simply leave quietly and move on to something else you may enjoy
WAIT
does this also happen with adversary?
it’s the exact same poses. pre-beast and beast have the same moves.
Who would you say is the most baby-like of the princesses (I need this for little "project" i'm doing)
This is for everyone who correctly identified the STP inspiration in my No Will AU
Bonus:
from the very first playthrough of the Slay The Princess this was an idea I wanted to draw
(spoilery talk under the cut)
i couldn't stop thinking about The Shifting Mound and The Long Quite basically representing Yin and Yang:
both are part of one whole
both are opposite and controversial but at the same time alike
both compliment each other
both carry parts of each other inside themselves
both together they create harmony of life and death and existance
i love this game so muuuch yaaay!
