i havent posted anything in so long oh my god..

thinking about the narrator again

like he feeds of praise and being criticized is like twisting a knife in his gut, but he also doesn’t care about how other actually feel about his game, as long as they talk about how amazing he is

and the skip button fucking destroys him because of this, breaks him down to a point where interaction alone is more rewarding that praise normally. worst of all is that he back himself into a corner, a cold, empty corner, all because he wanted to be adored by the masses

and i think cookie9 saying “they should add a skip button” is what made the narrator do this. with the other reviews, they give no “this would make it better”, only criticism. but with cookie9, the narrator knows exactly what they want, he knows what would make them like him.

with all the other reviews, he defends himself, he doesn’t want to put in the work of think what would make them like me? but cookie9 gives that to him directly, makes it easy

he doesnt actually want to change his game to make is appetizing to everyone, he just want everyone to like it. and a skip button wouldn’t change much, would it?

assign a key to it, that’s small and unobtrusive! his game is still the same and cookie9 will surely edit their review saying how much they adore the new change!

and that totally happens idk what y’all are talking about

Silly doodles of me

I like the fact that Apollo's circle of acquaintances is just... completely batshit. like he knows/knew and is/was on good terms with

a (presumably) very famous rockstar

gangsters

a popular foreign singer (who is also his mother)

a famous magician troupe

astronauts

multiple high-profile legal professionals

the literal public enemy number one of a small asian country

the princess of said country

Terumob Week 2025 Day 4: Repression

Yeah... Keep telling yourself that buddy

Klavier Gavin Investigations concept!!!!

I’ve had this in my mind for a while. If you’ve also been following me for a long time, you’ll know that Leyna von Karma is an oc i wanted to use for my Ace Attorney: Athena Cykes concept, but I realized it made soooo much more sense for her to be Klavier’s weird girl instead.

I’m not sure what Klavier’s gimmick should be. I thought of maybe like— him playing his guitar to ‘control’ ppl’s emotions (calming them down) to get them into a state where he can ask questions and get testimonies? And it’s like some rhythm mini game as well.

But idk! Just ideas

Here are some comics under cut

someone already made dont starve version of that dumbass video so im making tspud one enjoy

Mental Health in Media - Lacey

The Lacey Games series is an interesting webseries, first presenting itself as a lost flash game upload, then presenting itself as a horror series, and finally showing its colors as a heartfelt piece about trauma.

*Heavy topics below, proceed with caution.*

Through mainly Lacey's Diner and Lacey's Petshop, it is shown that Lacey has suffered CSA and neglect from her uncle, starting at a young age. But this is found under a layer of 2000s-style flash games, presenting the perfect looking Lacey in a upbeat 2000s girl life. But of course, with this genre, the deeper you get into the game, the more the truth is revealed.

In other series following similar formats, this transition is used to amplify the feeling of the unexpected; taking something innocent and turning it into something horrific. But the Lacey Games series adds many more layers to this. You see, Lacey is an in-universe stand-in for the creator of the fictional games, Rocío Yani, who like Lacey, is a survivor of this trauma. In the cases of both Rocío and Lacey, they've already escaped their abusers. Lacey is a chef, a pet shop owner, and goes about her day to day life within these flash games. But despite escaping her physical situation, her past always leaks into the present. In Lacey's Petshop, she returns to the house she grew up in -- the house she was abused in. Just because she has escaped her abuse doesn't mean she's escaped her trauma or the ways that effects every other aspect of her life. And so, so many pieces of media don't recognize this.

Lacey also isn't the "perfect victim" that media likes to portray abuse survivors -- especially CSA survivors -- as. The whole climax of Lacey's Petshop is that she killed her uncle, her abuser. Not because she was actively trying to escape, but because he killed her dog. Lacey's Diner also implies that Lacey (and by extension, Rocío) deals with substance abuse, another thing that media discussion mental health loves to demonize. After she escapes her uncle, she still has these destructive habits, she still deals with self-h4rm and su1cidality. She wasn't just some innocent girl, she was a human being who had everything taken from her.

I believe the Lacey Games series can be powerful to people who have survived what Lacey has. Society and media recognize and accommodate victims until they break the mold of a "victim". Trauma doesn't go away with the situation, it persists throughout one's life and seeps into aspects that could otherwise seem normal. And the thing that makes this worse is the constant demonization of the "imperfect victim". We may not be killing our uncles or baking various health-violating items into food like Lacey does, but feeling like shit and going through shit doesn't make you a horrible person.

Thank you for reading. I wasn't quite sure how to end this, so I just did. If I got anything wrong, please make sure to tell me!
