Today I Once Again Continue To Watch Summaries Of All The Games Ive Been Meaning To Watch Because I Cant

Today I once again continue to watch summaries of “all the games I’ve been meaning to watch because I can’t afford to play them but I never got around to it” with The Stanley Parable (well- only watched one video, but I’m starting to get the gist). Looking at OMORI and Undertale next. Yes I have not completed a watch through of Undertale.

Hey what if in the future when ORV has an anime and all that stuff and we get one of those limited time pop up cafes and one of the menus is a fried squid donut that if you split it apart there’d be ketchup inside to reference the entire 73rd DK arc…

And maybe with every order you get a small blurb from ORV on your bill where you can put it on a wall with all the other orders to form the entire story of ORV like how HSY did in the epilogue (and if you don’t know/forgot where you can interact with other ORV readers to put it up on the wall)…

Of course we’d also have Murim dumplings, chicken broth and a tomato salad bowl on the menu.

I can imagine a drink for OD as a butterfly pea tea that can change from blue to purple with lemon juice. It’d have like a pinch of edible glitter in it to look like stars.. Then SP’s drink is just a glass of wine lmao.

You know what else would be cute too? Posters on the wall that looks like we’re watching the kkomas cooking. And if you ask the waiter about the food they’ll just say [number] is cooking slowly because [that one Kkoma I forgot the number of] is off-duty today.

Also a section of the cafe is a small reading corner with ORV volumes to read but it’s designed to look like the inside of a subway because why not.

Yoohankim lyrics that scratches my brain just right

Home by Cavetown

Get a load of this train wreck His hair's a mess and he doesn't know who he is yet But little do we know, the stars Welcome him with open arms Oh

Time is Slowly Tracing his face But strangely he feels at home in this place

-Kim Dokja

Him during the later part of the story works so well with these words. His deteriorating sense of self, the train wreck ifykyk, being loved by others, being loved by stars (literally), and finding his found family dynamic with others becoming a home for him.

Never Love an Anchor by Crane Wives

I am selfish, I am broken, I am cruel I am all the things they might have said to you Do you ever think of me and my two hands? And wonder why they never soothed your fevers? And wonder why they never tied your shoes? And wonder why they never held you gently? And wonder why they never had the chance to lose you?

-Han Sooyoung/1863rd in particular

Writing a story for that one reader without ever being able to hold him, to tell him she cares for him, a love that’s built on sacrifice and could never love him personally like a parent, and when they meet for the first time face to face, she is a plagiarist writer whose personality don’t work quite well with him, unknowing that she had long carried his life through words alone. And she’d keep writing the story for him, forever, out of selfishness, that’s also love, care and yearning.

Curses by Crane Wives

There's still cobwebs in the corners And the backyard's full of bones Won't you stay with me, my darling When this house don't feel like home? When this house don't feel like home

Oh, ashes, ashes, dust to dust The devil's after both of us Ooh, lay my curses out to rest Make a mercy out of me

-Yoo Joonghyuk

Becoming slowly disconnected from the present time due to regression, death permeating his path and everywhere he could see, even in the 1864th round, having to watch Dokja die over and over again, and uselessly trying to keep him from sacrificing himself. Being life and death companions with this dumbass that inevitably lands him in graver danger than he should be facing, and eventually reaching the conclusion with him, along with finding the truth about his constellation sponsor, and his whole existence that kept that dumbass— a child crying out for help— alive for such a long time.

If anyone wanted some insight into how Jonny and Alex differ on writing style, here you go 😅

The Omniscient Archives AU

Silly goofy little crossover AU between ORV and TMA, that which the name is extremely ironic due to it being run by a Stranger Avatar. Some character info : archives team edition.

Kim Dokja -28, head archivist of the Omniscient Institute -horror fanatic -massive skeptic and denies real horror 99% of the time -read way too many horror stories as a kid -he thinks he’s just enjoying this job that’s exactly like his hobby (half denial) -backstory unknown

Yoo Joonghyuk -28, archival assistant, promoted from library -insomniac -encountered something extremely close to a fear god when he was a child (The End) -he forgot about it, but finds himself dreaming accurately prophetic dreams about the deaths of people around him -has been suffering with that since he was little -btw he couldn’t ever save a single person with his dreams -joined the institute to find answers about his missing childhood memories and prophetic dreams -the dreams have been rather silent since he’s joined, so he never left

Yoo Sangah -27, archival assistant since the former archivist, Han Sooyoung -the only functioning brain cell of the team besides Joonghyuk -gifted kid burn out, bored with general knowledge, so she said fuck this and decided to work a super mysterious job -language master -doesn’t deny the horrors, but doesn’t actively try to pursue it either -never had a run in with an avatar before (hooray! hope it lasts)

Lee Hyunsung -29, archival assistant, promoted from Research -big brother of the team -he’s trying his best to do his job, Sangah is his mentor figure being like “yay!! You did it!! Here’s a cookie, keep up the good work :3” -lost a close friend in the military due to them slowly becoming a buried avatar and refusing to feed on fear so they died very horrifically, also terrifying things started happening around the base too, soon after that -joined institute to find some answers to that incident -dad jokes -thinks Joonghyuk is the head archivist 90% of the time

thinking about epilogue hsy again, what would it be like to be one of hsy's students and watching your literature professor wrestling it out with some terrorist dude on live television.....the next lecture must've been crazy (if she didn't get fired that is)
