pigeons.
"who" "yes"

skarme
sagi 1: fav part of writing this character: I Just Think He's Neat

skarme
it's probably that he's such a pure boy tbh, like, he fits my son type but most of my son types would not willingly spout the idealistic shit that he does and mean it

skarme
he's straightforward in a lot of ways and that makes tags easy, which makes for more threads that go places

skarme
sagi 8: what i hate most about this character: his fucking stupid jrpg age ngl im pretty sure he's even worse than your average jrpg

skarme
like a good amount of it is the setting and not specifically him but
joined the army at 12, married at 15, how about no


skarme
the good thing about canons nobody cares about is that i can at least fudge these details without anyone noticing so there's that lmao

skarme
sagi 10: something i wish more people knew about this character: him. have you seen my son he is lost only because he's from an orphaned franchise but i would just like you to see him

skarme
(i have no idea what other people's impressions of him are from playing bko because nobody has played bko)

skarme
sagi 4: other works outside of this character's canon that inspire how i write them: digimon cyber sleuth - wait no come back

skarme
discworld, partly because discworld was massively influential for me as a baby getting interested in writing anything at all and that still carries over into my tags unless im making an effort otherwise (not usually, it's rp, the prose is less important than the hooks),

ραяту fιи∂єя
discworld hi 5

skarme
but also because they occupy a similar sort of space within the fantasy genre as stories with colourful absurd settings mostly played straight, shit happening but life finds a way sort of tone that i like a lot

skarme
and Also because the depiction of various weird mind bullshit in some of the discworld books (thinking of the witches books in particular, granny in carpe jugulum and the hiver in hat full of sky) started me off on my Personhood Bullshit interest a long time ago lol

skarme
i know its a topic commonly thought of along transhumanist+cyberpunk lines but i didn't get into it that way...

ραяту fιи∂єя
hat full of sky is an underrated work in general IMO, it’s real real good


skarme
but on that note also yes digimon cyber sleuth, hackermemo in particular because it also fits oddly well tonally (you are a side note to the grand heroic storyline happening elsewhere, things are shit but your story matters to you) and hudiemon's dual personality bullshit has lived rent free in my head ever since holo first started enthusing about her

skarme
and apparently the discography of the band seeming because every fucking time i think about making a sagi playlist just for fun it ends up being 99% seeming songs. i cannot explain this

skarme
(i can explain that it's because of the themes of contradiction/duality they like to play around with meshing well with a character who is half a Pure Boy and half wants to see the world burn, and the industrial-but-not instrumentation that they often use making me think of the industrial-but-not setting, but that's pretentious)

skarme
and ffxiv because my entire brain is ffxiv ig (it also jives fairly well tonally)

skarme
sagi 13: what do i think about this character's endgame -














skarme
i think the romance subplot could have been handled a lot better but thinking about him and milly not living to see their daughter grow up fucks me up.

skarme
he would have wanted to be there for her........... like his dad wasn't................

skarme
sagi 15: do i listen to any music in particular to get in the mood to write this character: SEEMING, APPARENTLY

skarme
i really can't focus on tags when music is playing though, it's sensory overload so not usually - but if a track from the bko soundtrack gets stuck in my head while im writing i tend to take it as a sign this tag is probably about right


skarme
naren 4: it's not fiction but any post anyone ever makes about autistic masking be like hey that's my daughter

skarme
i did not remotely set out to make her that way and she ofc does not have a word/concept for it but it really makes the most sense of her particular brand of not fitting in anywhere

skarme
naren 13: she's a wol we don't know her endgame... but as of post 5.3 she's def a more stable person than she was pre stormblood even though it took some doing, and coming out of her cool wol shell to be a gremlin significantly more often because she trusts the other scions enough now

skarme
im happy for her

skarme
all it took was realising that sometimes you must take breaks from world saving and hit rock with pickaxe

skarme
naren 15: the same about not really liking to listen to music for tag purposes applies here but i want to say heather dale. idk

(Eat the candy)
discworld things.... im emo about tiffany and witches books honestly (im emo about all of them but those series in particular are like. oh worm.)


skarme
yes
