LF: Darkest Dungeon 2 RP

Semi-lit flux

Hey!!   I’m Mal, 19, trans rightsI I'm willing to play with anybody 16+ Lf a Darkest Dungeon 2 rp and someone to chat with outside it too!

First of all I’m generally semi-lit but I more write what fits than prioritizing length. Just give me info to work with and I’ll be perfectly fine! I’m open to whatever except romance and smut. I love love love hurt/comfort, angst (including whump), and found family. Big fan of 'filler' too, like man,,, let them rest, breathe, bathe, and have a drink. They earned it. This is not a 10 episode miniseries either, they have time Long term preferred but lets see if we mesh first! Don't force it, hemorrhoids aren't fun

Both ocs and canon accepted and encouraged! I’d strongly prefer a mix of the two as I do want to interact with canon characters as well. I plan to play Damian and The Protégé, possibly Paracelsus too. I need to study and look into other characters before, but I think 2 per person is good to start with.

If you have a unique plot idea, share it! Please! Though, I think following Confessions would be fun. Through the hardships and failures, hope can remain, a flickering flame. The Protégé will suck in the beginning but he will develop. Tis an arc that pathetic little nerd must travel. Poor creature is stuck in Denial Ofc Darkest Dungeon 2 spoilers, but that should be obvious

You can read about my version of the Protégé here!My discord is MalJaws, but please msg me so I know its you. I do not accept invites I have no context to.

Please please don't be afraid to approach, I'm sure y'all are cool

Chat I had coffee at like 10 pm

I should start getting ready for bed now but

Lets drown with mama

Is there any disc servers for Darkest Dungeon for like, people brainrotted about the lore and characters? A place to share headcanons and shit

The fixation hit like a truck so I'd like to find a place actually familiar with it

Nice

Why are so many stamps and blinkies flash so much

I really hope it stays this way, while it’s puppet / childish(?) horror, it does so uniquely

And strangely brings a relatability that I don’t have much besides ‘haha isn’t that relatable’

While I love the usual approach, it’s the usual approach, it’s time to see something new from the genre

I'm having a certain amount of weird cognitive dissonance about partycoffin's Welcome Home (not tagging them because this is kinda speculation...)

I normally absolutely loathe the "the cute thing was EVIL ALL ALONG" genre, especially with Muppety puppets. I have a very strong squick about it. The Henson Workshop was one of baby's first hyperfixations, and The Dark Crystal is so important to me that it's hard to describe how without invoking religion.

... It's important to me, for these reasons, that the Muppets, especially the Sesame Street crew, are... innocent. Not in a Calvinist way, in an ... autistic hippie way. They're joyfully weird. They're not cruel for cruelty's sake. Some of the Muppets are grumpy and mean because it's what they were made to be, but they're not...

Look, it's hard to explain, but there's a very specific kind of Mean Comedy that, before Henson's death, the Muppets just did not do. Even Statler and Waldorf's heckling doesn't push that button for me. The Muppets shouldn't be capable of that kind of interpersonal cruelty. And that's important enough to me that I can't watch something like Avenue Q (much less Actual Puppet Horror) without getting sick to my stomach.

But *thus far*, the horror elements of Welcome Home haven't gotten to me in the same way. And I think it's because... Clown respects that aspect of the children's puppet genre?

Like, I know we're still in early days, and That One Fucking Picture Of Maisie freaks me the fuck out (for, uh, different reasons). But so far, it seems like at least part of the horror aspect... Is that innocence, and how it can't survive contact with humanity.

So far, at least in the newest version of WH, we've seen very little to indicate that the Home crew's joy and innocence aren't genuine. Everyone has Depths to their character, obviously, that can't be plumbed without going into the Gruesome Shit. But like.... with the possible exception of Wally, they don't seem Cruel. Fuck, even Wally seems Oblivious and Earnest, just... willing to do horrible things for the sake of Keeping Home Intact.

And that LACK of malice is ironically where the horror comes in! Because the sunny days of a kids' puppet show can't survive contact with a reality where people are cruel and ableist and homophobic, and once the show ends, there's nothing left but that reality... and everything falls apart.

Agh, I don't know. I might have to drop this fandom if I get that button pushed too many times. But for now, it's interesting to see an adult take on the genre that isn't gleefully mean and disrespectful towards one of the things I love about puppets.

I love oc art

I also just realized the pinky kinda looks like a thumb
