"The Grass Is Greener There" AU
Some headcanons for the ending, where the Stein family lives abroad.
----------------------------------------
1) Carl and his family live in a simple two-storey house on a hill with a great view of the sea and a clothes dryer right in the yard. Sometimes Martha plays there with her dolls while Anna hangs the laundry on the strings. Patrick draws drawings in the attic, where the sea wind blows and a beautiful view from the window. And in the evening, the family gathers in the kitchen, where Carl plays calm melodies on his guitar. Sometimes the head of the family makes fun of Patrick (about the mines), but seriously, Carl is even happy for his son.
Bonus: In Anna's cafe, you could not only have a snack, but also find shelves with books. And some board games (chess, backgammon).
Bonus 2: Carl is overtaken by karma for tearing up books in the library. He discovers book sheets on the floor and damaged book covers, for which he later receives a letter from his superiors.
----------------------------------------
2) Carl and Martha spent the weekend by the sea doing cute things, like eating ice cream, building a sand castle, collecting shells, etc. In general, Сarl gave Martha all his attention and love to make her feel happy.
----------------------------------------
3) When the Steins move into a new house abroad, Carl, after walking a couple of steps, faints. Later it turns out that from lack of sleep he fell into a comatose state. It is not known how long Carl will stay in it, but he will obviously not wake up soon.
Bonus: Carl, after rebitalization from coma and psychotherapy courses, goes to get a job as a librarian. He goes along with Anna, because he is very nervous. But he enters the room alone.
----------------------------------------
4) At night, Carl wakes up for no reason. Although the reason is that he has nightmares that he is working at Krushvice again, and he did not save anyone. Carl still can't believe that everything is calm now. Even though he knows that he and his family are not in danger now.
----------------------------------------
5)
Carl: You know, I wouldn't trade all this for something else. Anna: Since when are you so sentimental?
Carl just shrugs, kisses Anna's hand. Already aged, they looked at the sea together, gently holding hands. The sun was slowly going "under the water", giving way to night time.
Small stuff for Beholder (Game)
Some things that have been coming to my mind for some time.
And I also have this: "The Grass Is Greener There" AU
----------------------------------------
Danton treats Brukich like a son / nephew, cherishing the life of a student. One winter evening, George calls the young man to his "home". Fulfledle notices a photograph of the revolutionary: Danton with a whole eye and his dead nephew. After that, George himself quietly approaches the student, saying that they are both similar in character, and that this is the only thing that is very dear to him.
----------------------------------------
Magda bandages her boss's arm after Pete got into a fight at his party with some left-wing employee (presumably with Legrand). Still recovering from alcohol, Ferguson kisses a woman on the cheek. After such a gesture, Pete gets a strong slap in the face. The handprint remains on his face for a long time.
----------------------------------------
Bastian was so fed up with everything and/or depression reached such a scale that he used real blueprints (he gave Carl a copy), and wanted to blow himself up together with Helmer. But only undermined the nearest town.
----------------------------------------
Isaac has a very bad handwriting, so he typed the entire "Canon of Clones" on a typewriter. He treats writing something extremely responsibly (like a scientific work, or the same Canon), can sit for a long time studying the necessary information in the library, and in his office. But according to the classics, he does not treat criticism very well, even extremely negatively.
Bonus: Alloisius and Isaac have known each other since their student years at the medical college. And Weinberg does not fully understand how it is possible to save the lives of imperfect people.
----------------------------------------
Wise Leader has a secret room in his house with movies and books that he once read/watched. With an armchair and a built-in TV in the closet. And the old man relaxes there after a hard day at the theater, immersing himself in written fantasy stories. Sometimes he can be found in a bookstore, where he buys new books according to his proven method.
Bonus: After many operations to revive, the Leader was left with a scar on his chest.
Bonus 2: After the Leader became a "vegetable", Caleb began to read books to him. He was the only one from the Circle who genuinely cared about him.
----------------------------------------
I like to think of the 25th floor as a "found family."
1) Amelia, Horatio and others arranged a surprise party for Weinberg on his birthday. Isaac was not impressed by this, but he was touched that he was not forgotten.
2) Hemnitz helps Weinberg with Borean, because for a "great" mind, this language turned out to be difficult.
3) Isaac voluntarily lets Amelia develop herself, but not because he is happy for her, but because "in the world of clones" it will not matter.
Isaac: You can go to your self-development courses. This is a good solution.
Amelia: Thank you very much! (hugs Isaac by the neck, and leaves the office)
Isaac: (sits down at the table) Enjoy it while we're all alive…
----------------------------------------
Frank got sick of solving "generational problems," and so he took Sabine and Kim to his office, locked them there with a key, after taking the phone:
Frank: Until you two talk, I'm not letting you out of here. Don't worry about Alex, honey, I can feed him. And, Kim, please try not to break anything, okay? Even though Mom earns money, I still pay for the bills.
----------------------------------------
Ernst had never smoked in his life. But after he was fired along with Lotte (Stephen's ending), then over time he started doing it. Because it calms him down. Ernst takes a drag on his cigarette for the first time, and immediately coughs.
Bonus: Stephen finds Ernst, and arranges him back to the Ministry, because the latter knows many languages. However, he imposes prohibitions on Mueller in the form of: the use of weapons and leaving the country, unless for work.
----------------------------------------
Emma Grundich: (exhales smoke directly into the listener's face)
Frank: (MEGA COUGH followed by leaving the office for fresh air)
Ernst: (calmly waves his hand away, without even moving his nose or flinching a single muscle on his face)
----------------------------------------
Alloisius invited Bastian to the tennis court to distract him from parting with Clara and "shake him from the sedentary image behind the blueprints." As a result, Bastian almost dies right on the field due to a sudden heavy load on his heart. Alloisius brings him to his senses, apologizes, and promises to introduce the load gradually.
----------------------------------------
Stephen and Ernst drank wine, and kissed twice. For the first time, because alcohol hit Stephen harder in the head. And the second time was when Stephen sobered up a little, but both of them wanted this feeling of intimacy. But they kissed a little longer and a little more gently. The next day, no one wanted to remember it.
----------------------------------------
Stephen tries to lure Ernst into a snowball game, and the latter ignores him at first, and after a while they throw snowballs at each other until they get tired and fall into the snow. But they had fun. Ernst still considers it a “waste of time”, but for some reason he feels calm now.
Emma Grundich watches from the window of the Ministry. This surprises her, and she grins, inhaling the smoke from the cigarette.
----------------------------------------
— Have you chosen anything? Bastian felt a familiar hand on his shoulder. He had been standing in front of the clothing counter, looking at sweaters for half an hour.
— Are you sure this is necessary, Comrade Alloisius? — uncertainty and awkwardness could be read in the engineer's voice, unaccustomed to this kind of thing. He knew what he wanted to see in his wardrobe, but he was afraid that Shpak would not have enough money.
— Of course! — the doctor smiled, — Besides, maybe it will make you stop wearing this old vest.
Bastian was a little hurt by this, he did not want to part with what he wore all the time. The only thing that did not bring discomfort to his body, did not make him itch and catch bugs in the fabric. However, nothing is eternal.
The engineer closed his eyes, and his hand slowly reached for the hanger. After a while Bastian was holding a dull chocolate-colored sweater.
— This color suits you very well. — it seemed to the man that the cardiologist's soft smile warmed him at this moment more than warm clothes on his own body, — Come on, I've already chosen a sweater for myself.
They left the store, turning left. Satisfied, the two men walked along the sidewalk with a calm step, holding bags of purchased things.

It's November 9th in my time zone, which means that today marks the 6th anniversary of one of my favorite games.
Happy Birthday, Beholder Game!
"We will synchronize our hearts Shout as loud as we can Let's stand side by side We don't need a hero"
Original: Би-2 - Нам не нужен герой (B-2 - We don't need a hero)
I didn't get into the pose from the clip, but finally the idea from my head is now here. When I saw this fragment, I literally said, "This is Danton!" In fact, this is not the first time Beholder has been associated with this group. I want to draw more, and I have one more drawing in stock.
By the way, they recently released a new album. You can listen to it here if you want.
I guess that's what I'm proud of this year
Something important that should not be forgotten
______________
I know what it's like to spoil someone's impression. And I am truly sorry that this happened.
Arts for Beholder Zine. Unfortunately, the zine did not pay for itself, but now you can upload arts from it.
Old art. It seems like I didn't post it, but this is my favorite work with Marco.
NSFW headcannons
tw: violence/cruelty, mention of sex/death
Carl and Anna started dating. At some point, Carl began to feel a strong sexual attraction to her, but he was ashamed to admit it. He started avoiding Anna (they say I’m sorry, I have business, etc.) until the latter decided to catch and talk to him. Well, he notices that he is excited.
Options for what will go next:
1) They kiss (so that no moans can be heard), and Anna shoves her hand into her pants. 2) Anna goes down and does everything she needs while Carl holds back the moans.

Peter Dong is killing everyone on the ground floor. Even the guards, Emma and Evan are killed. He finally gets to Marco to finally finish him off. Legrand was paralyzed with fear, and he could only watch and hope that he would be spared. The last thing Marco remembered before his death was a look filled with anger and pain.
“Well, bitch, who’s laughing now?”
When Peter comes to, he looks at his hands. They were covered in blood. His face and clothes were also covered in blood. A whole pile of corpses was lying around, and in front of him lay the body of Marco with a broken head. The realization of what happened makes Peter scream in agony. With trembling hands, he raises the weapon, bringing it already to his head.
Somewhere in the distance, Servants of the People hear a shot.

The ending of “Albert De Salvo”:
Evan couldn’t remember how long it had been since he foolishly handed Heimdall over to Albert. After several tortures from De Salvo, who tested them on him from that ill-fated book, Redgrave stopped resisting a long time ago, and simply gave up. It was pointless. There were no thoughts, no fear for his life. And no desires, except one - to die as soon as possible. But Evan knew for sure that this was not destined to come true.
______________________
Closed blinds of the office. Knock him down on the table, dropping some of the things on the floor. Passionately kiss on the lips and neck while his hands unhurriedly unbutton the buttons of his coat and shirt. Gently run your palm over your head, ruffling your hair. Touch hot skin, and outline the waistline under the shirt. Grumbling from the fact that the lock on the trousers does not give in. His quiet laugh. Slow tremors, gradually developing into faster ones. Moans that are trying to drown out. Hands clasping the back. Your name.
“I won…” Ernst says in a hoarse voice in Stephen’s ear
"Goodbye, my only friend I wish this wasn't the end I don't want to go back... I don't want to fade away"

I once said that I am not an animator. Just imagine that they turn their head in your direction. This moment has been spinning in my head since I listened to the song. In fact, this song suits Carl more than Frank. And I would also like more fan songs by Beholder (in the first and second parts).

tw: FLASHLIGHT / DEATH
Something special, simple and at the same time difficult for me. I have been in this fandom literally since its foundation. Maybe someday I will have the strength to do something like this.
__________________________
And... I do not know what keeps me in the fandom. I do not know why I drive game tags in social networks every time. Since its foundation, this place has been changing, but now, because of some people, everything has not changed for the better. It alienated most of the people I knew. You know, this is an eternal problem of fandom, because of which you just feel uncomfortable being there in your free time.
Perhaps the only thing that keeps me here is some good people that still remain, their fan creativity (and outside of Russia too), and interest in the universe of the game, I think. Thank them for this, thank you for doing this game fanart and fan video. By the way, my old friend once gave me the idea for this meme.
Happy anniversary to you, Beholder Game!
(nov/09/23)
The new is the well-forgotten old (redraw)
When, during a conversation with a friend, you remember that besides drawing, you can do something else. Everything in the photo was taken a very long time ago.
Felt badges and "patches" and self-adhesive stickers.
It's my birthday today (18.04), so like last time I collected my best art (within the tumblr post, of course).
I've been in this fandom too long. Now I don't want to touch him.
By the way, Dora was the character that first resonated in me during the first playthrough.
