Not An Art Post - Tumblr Posts
Hi, here in the “sunny” Biella is more or less the same. Everybody is inside and everyone is panicking. I’m a little worried for me and my mother, we have a poor immunity system and we keep falling ill. I’ve been living shut inside for more than three weeks (I was ill before the quarantine started and I preferred to stay at home... and I’m still a little sick now). I’m not the most sociable person, but I’m starting to feel the strain. Hope that with the rising temperatures the virus will stop spreading as much
Oh wow, you're in Italy? Please stay safe, don't risk yourself. I'm in Canada, and there's only one case in my city, and I'm anxious about going outside. I can't imagine how you must be feeling.
Our government did the right thing, but it’s really hard. These are hard times but we can do it.
hello yes how is ur day i love u and think ur art is best thing ever 10/10
hi!!!! thank u jsjfjjzjz,,,,,im still not used that sm ppl like my arts,,,,, woah,,,,,,,, thank u again,,, 💖💖💖,,,,,
my day was nice, ty for asking!!! i bought some candies, realized its halloween tmrw (well its today alr bc its 3am) and kinda got lost <\3 not necessarily in that order :3
As a celebration of me finishing SkullWitch Academy- And because I want to draw more -I’ve decided to start something for the fun of it:
Ask The Characters!
You can ask any of my characters from SkullWitch Academy, Their Betrayals: Lie’s End, or any other characters of mine questions about anything whatsoever! You can even ask me questions if you want to. It could be about the story they may be a part of, random thoughts, etc.
:)
So in the poll there was a tie between a story during the 33 year long war mentioned in Their Betrayals: Lie’s End and a story completely unrelated to the Their Betrayals series. That sucks.
In the poll, there were some ideas that I had plans for and others I had no clue where I’d start. I’ve have some time to merge different ideas and scrap others. BUT: I have a to-do list of which story ideas I want to complete so instead of choosing which of the two choices I want to actually work on, I’m gonna make another poll and let you guys once again decide. Hopefully there won’t be a tie this time, but if there is, I’ll probably just choose myself.
Also, Happy Easter!! even though it’s still the 30th where I am right now
First Vocaloid song I remember listening to: “Carnival” by Otetsu
First Vocaloid I recognized as a Vocaloid: definitely Gumi (thanks FNAF MMDs lmao)
Favorite Vocaloid song: ooo that’s hard, “Flower” by UtsuP and “Fear Garden” by Chaa at the moment I think, but I really honestly can’t choose. Too many good songs in the world!
Favorite Vocaloid producer: UtsuP, DaijoubuP, Ferry, Maretu, Kairiki Bear, Wowaka, and PowaPowaP are all pretty tied hmmm too many I suck at picking favorites oops
Favorite Vocaloid: Big Al is my main favorite (yeah I know💀💀💀), but I also like the Zola Project boys, all the Cryptonloids, Gumi, VY2, VFlower, and Gakupo :3 (way more too, but yeah)
Favorite design of Big Al: Definitely his main V2 Standard box art by Ash, especially some of the concept art for that one cause it gives him sharp teeth and pointy ears and I think that’s a cute detail for him lol
Favorite Vocaloid song character: Meta Salmhofer my beloved
Um uh I don’t really have many Vocaloid mutuals or anything yet so uh, if anyone sees this and wants to do it go ahead asdfghjkl bye d(TwT )
Oh geez it left all the other reblogs on it and is now super long aaaaaa idk how to format things on here correctly so they’re not huge :’(
so I have an idea for a vocaloid ask game but I don’t know if anyone else wants to do it
So I was playing Simon’s Quest (again) earlier and you guys might know by now that I’m incredibly normal (extremely deranged) about that game, but it’s got me thinking about something: what exactly are the hearts and why are they the money in this game?
Hearts in the first game and almost every game after Simon’s Quest are the thing that you need to collect to be able to use subweapons and they primarily come from candles, but enemies can drop them too. But in Simon’s Quest, while they do still power a couple subweapons, it’s only the ones we’ve never seen before like the Sacred Flame and Golden Knife while not being used for the Holy Water, something that does in every other game. And they only come from enemies because there’s no candles. And there’s different sizes of them. And collecting enough of them levels Simon up. And their primary function is completely shifted to currency!!! Odd, isn’t it?
And the whole way that you buy anything in this game is really framed like some black market sketchy deal. These sellers (or crooked traders with bum deals lol) are primarily holed away in their houses under one or two layers of walls and floors only breakable by magical infinite Holy Water, something only the local badass vampire hunter guy would have after having bought some with said hearts in the first town, or they’re way tucked away in the thick of these Dracula’s army overtaken mansions, some of them even standing directly where skeletons walk past them or in between relatively large pits of spikes. Whatever the reason, these guys obviously want this fairly secret. (Aside from the first town white crystal guy, he’s fine being out in the open lol.)
So what gives??? What is Simon grinding monsters for and trading with the locals for weapons and herbs???
Now this is where things get really ✨speculative✨. I’m gonna put the cut here for suspense and intrigue I guess lol XD. This is gonna be a lot of me thinking out loud and throwing down ideas, not really like a confirmed answer to anything, just havin fun thinkin about a part of a game d(•w• )
I think there’s a few possibilities. They could be the same thing that they are other games or they could be something different just used similarly as a power source.
But first we gotta break down what hearts could be in Cv1. In a lot of the games they seem to be some kind of a general mana, a magic energy possibly not unlike how metaphysical/magical things are depicted in other media. Perhaps the subweapons themselves are magic objects and not really a physical thing that require “hearts” to be conjured. Maybe they could be physical objects that need to be enchanted with “hearts” to be anywhere comparable to Vampire Killer level usefulness. Just a few possibilities.
If the hearts in Simon’s Quest are the same thing, then this kinda makes some sense. Simon trading monster soul energy or whatever with presumably magic users for things he needs on his Quest, especially since things like Laurels (also can be called bay laurels or bay leaves) are commonly used in spells and who better to be selling a spell component than someone who does spells! Also, it makes sense that these people would be fairly out of sight as magic use was still a touchy subject at the time.
Now I don’t know how accurate this is, and if I do find a source somewhere in my way too many bookmarks I will reblog this and link it to it, but I remember reading somewhere in an interview about either SotN or one of the games made close before it that the candles are like the souls of Dracula and his army’s victims that you free when you hit them and they leave you a little parting gift for it. Yes, these games were made way after, so it’s not certain if that was the original intent of these, but I figured it adds something to this.
But what if the hearts in Simon’s Quest are not the same thing? After all, the Holy Water doesn’t use them and we can’t say if they would or not work for other subweapons that appear in CV1 since they aren’t in this one. Well there’s something else that could be dropping from killing monsters that could also fit into the above probability that these traders are magic users and it’s a little darker!
Hearts! Bones! General viscera! And this also kinda makes sense! I mean the whole plot of the game revolves around Simon already carrying pieces of Dracula’s corpse around to burn all together on an altar to cure his and the surrounding area’s curse, it’s not that far of a stretch to say that he’d be fine with carrying around pieces of other monsters and that magic users might be willing to trade things for them so they can use them in their own spells, potions, and so on. And that might also explain why Holy Water isn’t powered by hearts and is incredibly weak in comparison in this game. And why these weird, new subweapons seem to be Simon exclusive! They could be powered by things like monster blood instead of the usual magic energy-ish stuff we’re used to hearts symbolizing.
Regardless of if I’m right or not with either of these, Simon is probably taking advantage of some underground monster essence/organs trade the whole game and this is just such an interesting batshit detail for him as a character.
Anyway, I love this game so much, I’m gonna be spreading propaganda for it like this a lot hopefully lol. Okie that’s it hope that was fun, do with this information what you will :)
Every day I remember that one of the animators got hired for making a Simon animation and I live in fear that Netflix could ever think about touching him at all. Like I’m already losing Richter and Maria, I can’t handle them taking anyone else. Like in a stupid way I guess I’m a little glad Nocturne is mixing Bloodlines and Rondo all stupid because at least that means they’re not gonna touch John Morris or Eric, I’m still so upset about Elizabeth Bartley and Drolta tho…
sam deats being a shanoa fan is the scariest thing in the world to me. do NOT give her a netflix series i will rip out your entrails
So... I made this, I'm not an artist but I like to do things:)
A veces siento que es demasiado, me abruman mis pensamientos y siento que quisiera correr... Dejar todo eso atrás; pero entendí que cuando la vida se vuelve complicada, debes volver a lo básico de ésta
