The Inner Worlds - DID System Art The Factory, Chocolate Room

the Inner Worlds - DID System art ▸ the Factory, Chocolate Room

One of the location shots for our ongoing emulation series on Youtube, allowing a visitor to dive into the inner world of a dissociative identity disorder system, and experience both the good and the bad.

Squidgevt- our first visitor- ended up in one of the most infamous, trauma-filled location: the Factory. Overseen by our childhood persecutor (which is an incredibly simplified explanation of the man), it's perhaps better akin to a fae-trap than a wonderland...

Have some Turkentines. Because his face is really fun to draw.

What if Oompa Loompas were ghosts for a non-replica, of Charlie and the chocolate factory musical? Think about it, it could be creepy but awesome to see how that is handle.

The idea of the Oompa Loompa being ghosts... my mind immediately goes to a darker, more gothic-horror-fantasy take on CatCF (PotO's designs come to mind). My heart loves this.

The Factory's set up in some old refurbished castle, the tickets are sent out due to an anxious obsession with his own mortality, Wonka's design probably looks like something straight out of @rknchan's sketchbook... that was partially a joke, but there's a little pair of glasses she reblogged a while back that he'd absolutely wear. also i think it's high-time we have a poc Willy Wonka, so this one is.

Anyhow I digress- the question at hand: There would be two ways to implement ghost Oompa Loompa, in my eyes:

The Oompa Loompas started exactly as in the original: uncomfortably hired into indentured labour brought over from a foreign country to work at his factory. However, due to whatever circumstances, this does not work out. The Oompa Loompas all eventually pass away. But this is a gothic horror, so now your factory's got ghosts. Sorry fam, that's just the rules of a gothic-horror. Wonka's got guilt, but he's grown accustomed to it. They're just there. But they also make him feel eternally more lonely, and also now he's down a ton of workers and he's not doing so hot.

2. You go full-on Leeds Revival with the Oompa Loompas, cut out all that problematic shit, and these things are just... straight up ghosts. They were there when he moved in and they're chill; some of them whisper him ideas in the night, and some of them make his life hell. Due to the way ghosts work in this universe and because I feel oompa loompas always need a unified design they all sort of look like these faceless pale apparitions with no discernible features besides the occasional hint as to how they died.

God, the set and costume design for this would be amazing. Why isn't this a thing. now i want to sketch this.

We're still alive by the way,

turkenbill has consumed us also our turkentine introject from childhood woke up and there's been a lot of onboarding him into the system; it's a whole thing

also we need to do work because 1.4 of 'the Inner Worlds' is coming out on Friday and it is not finished

How would you handle the choreography for Auf wiedersehen Augustus gloop from Charlie and the chocolate factory the musical?

Oh we have two left-feet and a bad memory, so we couldn't even tell you the coreography for the current musical versions of AwAG.

Not having a 'chocolate lagoon' or a tiny hose-sized pipe would be a good start for whatever's going on there though.

So we made our own musical wonka...
