Walking around campus to the Night in the Woods soundtrack is actually top tier I’m literally an NPC rn
besira and daisy
autors note : did this to absolutly crush u sensible tma fans
-daisy is crying but only from one eye (only one part of herself is still herself enough to be in pain )
-they have the same eye colour (the hunt has them both)
-they both have matching mouth scars ,likly from eachother, symbol for their hurtful relationship, but also of their close bond in that pain.
-besira is still holding on close even tho she already has bite marks on her hands
-they are not looking at eachother
-besiera's headscraf is white like daisy's teeth (white being a colour closly associated with innocence) : to eachother , they are good people.
cryed while drawing this ;-;
Saw a picture of Logan with a Garfield backpack, was overcome by the urge to draw it
I'm not the first to theorise that the tagging system is important - this post is inspired by the person who noticed that Needles and Bonzo share both a CAT and an R tag.
This is an incomplete attempt to decode the entire system for theorising purposes. Unfortunately, I was not able to figure it out as thoroughly as I hoped but I'm sharing it here in hope others can make observations. Here is the table:
For those who want a better look, or cannot see the image due to screen-reader use, here is a google document with the same table: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Wc4COCMHdwKz6N-KawvMOs4Y3k3W6Kq-NDhZ7brcRLg/edit?usp=sharing
So, my observations thus far:
CAT (probably short for categories)
There are four categories so far- 1, 2, 3 and 23.
Needles, both Bonzo statements and the very first statement are the only CAT 1s so far.
Needles and Bonzo are likely to be major recurring characters, so this could suggest the creature in the first statement (which to me gives distortion vibes) may also be.
Alternatively, CAT could suggest danger. Needles and Bonzo are serial killers, while the CAT 3 statements tend to refer to very old or contained objects, so perhaps these are less dangerous? The only gap in this theory is InkSoul being CAT 3, which makes little sense given their livestreaming. Unless... could InkSoul be dead?
Generally, but not absolutely, newer statements tend to be closer to CAT 1, and older statements closer to CAT 3. Bonzo and Needles both referred to statements taken days before the episode dropped. Again, this isn't an absolute rule and the first statement is again the odd one out.
What I absolutely cannot figure out is CAT 23. I thought it was a typo until I encountered it again for Ep 11. It clearly means something special. Unlike for the R system, I don't think it means between categories 2 and 3, because the statements we get are both quite important. We'll probably have to wait for more episodes to figure this one out.
R (probably short for rank)
This is the one I'm more sure about. I believe it indicates 'grades' of some measure, like school grades. A is best, B is after that, and so on.
I think AB and BC are borderline grades.
Ep 3 and 4 (plant boy and violin man) do not have an R tag. My working theory is that this indicates the statements are below a grade C.
So what does R actually grade? Again, it could be importance (assuming that isn't what CAT means), or usefulness to the institute, but then why is our known external Mr Bonzo only a B?
So far we have no rank As and only one rank AB - the Red Canary statement.
If there's one thing I'm certain of, it's that the first rank A statement is going to be very big indeed.
Conclusion
I believe category and rank indicates any two out of the following: importance, danger, level of OIAR control, level of usefulness to OIAR, certainty of being true, amount of evidence. Ultimately, we need more statements to be sure.
For whatever two measures these systems represent, I am fairly certain that a category closer to one and a rank closer to A represents a better grade on that measure, with the exception of CAT 23 which I think is its own thing. The ultimate purpose of this post is to encourage people to pay attention to these tags more as I am certain they contain clues, and if anyone smarter than me can spot them as more episodes come out, then great.
PS: As I was just about to post this I had a sudden idea as to what CAT 23 *might* be. It could be dimensional cracks. This is clearly what's going on in the magnus institute (with the dice statement being exempt because it was taken before the institute burnt down) and it's possible the graveyard in Ep 11 also serves this function. This is pure speculation however.
Just started the penumbra podcast who tf is this rex glass fucker like if he's going to be around here for a while shouldn't they like introduce him properly??? What even is his deal im so confused help-
Edit: WHAT THE FUCK
I’ve got some older portfolio pieces that I never posted, so I’ll be posting a bit more art in the next couple of days btw. Don’t want my very inconsistent schedule suddenly changing to be suspicious
despite humanity spreading all over the universe in post-space colonisation era, the only other life form ever found was a fungi-like microorganism living in giant colonies, which by their appearance resemble earth minerals. it can be found deep below the surface of different, seemingly unrelated moons and planets, desperately hiding from all forms of light. commonly known as sculk, it is the newest and most important discovery in recent human history, although very little is actually known about it
Tango is a former hasa engineer, one of the people who completly revolutionized space mining, renowned for his work on the nature of sculk, and currently a wanted terrorist on the run, after he blew up a significant chunk of callisto, one of jupiters moons, durning an illegal sculk mining operation. Completly unfit for the criminal lifestyle, its a miracle he hasnt been caught yet, especially with many bounty hunters and criminals alike on his tail
(aka an old, gwitch/trigun/cowboy bebop inspired story idea revamped to fit minecraft themes, so i could draw some cool retrofuturistic designs. the price is in pln because me and aku thought it would be funny... poland can into space)
