We Need This For Every Animated Movie Ong

We need this for every animated movie ong

I used to love those

THEORY: They’re long lost brothers

We already have Smitten sounding like Skeptic when he's angry but...what if... it's also possible to have the other way around?

Like if Skeptic's emotionally overwhelmed and/or is in a state of panic, his tone becomes slightly more lighter and his gruff voice becomes more fluttery. After suppressing his emotions in order to "prioritize logic", he lets it all out, slowly striking a resemblance to his counterpart.

This is “And they were roommates.” “Omg they were roommates.” vibes

it ended today and it’s truly a crime to me that seemingly nobody’s brought weapon x-traction to the attention of the non-comic deadclaws fans. it’s the only comic i’ve read that explicitly calls wade pansexual and emphasizes his queerness without it being the butt of the joke. it’s the only thing i’ve ever read that had me genuinely laughing pretty much the whole time. it has some utterly enchanting art. and as of this week and the last it has deadclaws LITERALLY finding each other in every universe

with everything about this comic taken into account i’m so sure that the subtextual intention for it being romantic was there. because like yeah what the fuck is happening in any of this. what’s happening HERE?

why are they so sickeningly domestic. don’t piss me off

They didn’t.

Imagine an ending of Slay the Princess where the Narrator gets ignored so hard in the first two chapters, that he just dips

Like he just leaves the voices on their own to meld the world as they see fit

It would be utter chaos, also I imagine everything as drawn in sketch.

Hero: Okay, since he’s gone, I’ll narrate. We’re on a path—

(A path appears)

Hero: …In the woods.

(Trees appear around the path)

Hero: And at the end of that path, is a cabin.

(A cabin appears at the end of the path)

Hero: And in the basement of that cabin is a princess?

Contrarian: What if one of us was in the basement?

Smitten: No one can replace our beloved! What if she was here right now?

(Everything disappears and it’s just the princess)

Smitten: Oh! There she is!

Hero: No, no. That’s not right. She’s in the cabin—

(The cabin appears again)

Hero: Which is at the end of the path.

(The path appears again)

Hero: And the path is in the woods.

(The woods appears again)

Hero: And that’s how it should be.

Paranoid: But what if that’s only how we perceive it to be. Everything could be wrong. What if the narrator messed up, and your saying the wrong things?

Hero: I’m not. I’ve heard it time and time again. I didn’t get it wrong.

Contrarian: What about the blade? You reckon we still need the blade? You didn’t say we need to slay the princess.

Hero: Oh…uhm…

Smitten: That’d be just fine with me! Our beloved can run straight into our arms! No blades in the way!

(Image of the princess running into the player(or bird boy, or the main character, etc.)’s arms)

Cold: I say we grab the blade and stab ourselves.

(Image of the player taking the blade and putting it above their heart)

Hero: We’re not doing any of that. We have the path, the woods, and the cabin at the end of the path in the woods.

(All of that appears again)

Hero: No buts.

Skeptic: This is a bunch of bullshit. We get free rein and you wanna just stick to what the narrator says? We can make our own rules!

Hero: That’s not how it works—

Opportunist: Yeah! Let’s make our own world! One for all…(quiet counting) 11 of us!

Contrarian: There’s 11 of us? That sucks. It’s not an even number. I think we’ll have to kill the one talking the least.

Hunted, Cheated, and Stubborn at the same time: Hey!

(The hunted, cheated, and stubborn start talking at the same time)

Broken: I’ll make a worthy sacrifice.

Contrarian: It’s settled then!

(The hunted, cheated, and stubborn stop talking)

Hero: All of you quit! No one’s dying!

Contrarian: Aww man.

Opportunist: That’s okay. 11 of us can fit in a house.

(Suddenly the cabin turns into a proper house)

(Utter silence)

Hero: What the fu—

Contrarian: THE BLADE!

(The blade is summoned in front of the player)

Hero: QUIT! NO BLADE!

(No blade)

And etc etc.

And then the gets worse GETS EVEN WORSE-

Slay the Princess can either be pretty tame by horror game standards or a constant downward spiral of "don't worry! it gets worse!" and I think that's beautiful
