I drew this a while ago thinking of siffrin reaching for the tears while their friends watch, unable to do anything... how they must freak out in those split seconds, and how they’re never fast enough. well!
I’m only on ACT 2, so please be gentle in the tags <3
Hello!! Your art is stunning and you're also one of the few people who have an overlap with orv and isat - I was wondering what your very normal thoughts about the overlap between these two is
Have a good day !!!!!!
hihiii thank you so much !!! first off sorry for the delayed response. I immediately wanted to respond to this but also wanted to give it some thought bc I just love orv and isat so much !!! us orvsatters (name I decided just now) must stick together... let us spread the gospels.
Anyways I'll get into it !!! There is no clear format as idk what I'm doing. spoilers below for:
ISAT: up to ACT 3 finale since I got there recently
ORV: up to the epilogue ! my orv-reading friends, pls look away!
✨ As per my little isat au for orv I see correlations between kdj/loop and yjh/siffrin, at least when it comes to their positions as characters. Simply put: guy going through a time loop and the trusty (???) advisor/sponsor/weird star thing that's annoys them (but also closest to understanding them/helps them cope with the overwhelming loneliness!!!! hahahah). At the same time I think that kdj and siffrin have several parallels as well: self loathing, sacrificial tendencies, concealing one's feelings...
(ORV Epilogue) To be extra specific I consider siffrin (from the start of isat) as similar to 0!yjh and loop as similar to dkos kdj... ahahah. I am normal about this I promise!
✨ Found-family trope. It goes so crazy I love it so much. In both isat and orv... there is so much love in both of these stories. Kdj's
I, someone of no redeeming quality, could be loved by the others.
(ch 513) is giving big siffrin vibes. And siffrin's conversation with the party about whether they are friends or not -> turns out they are FAMILY! take that idiot (sif).
✨ As mentioned these are medias where there is So Much Love. This post comes to mind. Big theme in orv (epilogue flashbacks), and I think in isat as well (specifically, the one loop where sif and the party become very well acquainted through the friend quests and sif hopes dearly that this is the key to ending the loops -> sike).
✨ Siffrin and yjh parallels !!! The regression (accidental pun) of one's emotions as they go through time loop again and again... siffrin repeats the same 2 ish days whereas for yjh the amount of time is much larger and variable. Their personalities are both wearing out... I think of the scene where sif just massacres the tutorial sadness. lol. OH god (just remembered as I write this) and yjh's internal thoughts in the revised version of WoS if kdj were to die:
「 I thought it was going well. That's what that person said. Everyone was fine until the 'outer god' appeared. 」
「 Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? 」
(ch 282). They are both so broken lmao.
✨ I think sif and kdj share a lack of awareness about the consequences of some of their actions, specifically those of the sacrificial variety. Sif not understanding how bonnie had been traumatized by his action of saving them at the cost of their eye. Kdj who does similar sacrificial things every week and thinks little to nothing of it. Why are they like that. Are they stupid?
[ It isn't salvation. It is a curse. ]
(ch 283) this line from orv comes to mind. Even crazier that sp is the one saying this...
🌌 Ok that's all I can think of for now. I haven't finished isat yet so I expect more orvy things to happen!!!!??? And I fear it (no spoilers pls!!). Anyways that concludes this rambling! Hope it's a satisfying response,.. maybe lmk what you think?! and have a good day !!!
I know for sure that you can't help all families from Gaza that want to be evacuated from here but at least you can help those who come across your life💔
You have no idea how mentally and emotionally tiring this is. Asking for help is not easy😔. But when thinking that the price is my family's life and getting out of here safely, it just pushes me more and more to do this until i reach my goal, be able to attend my university abroad and achieve my doctoral degree dream after awarding prestigious PhD fellowship 💖🤍🖤
Please donate and share to support us at this hard time🙏🍉
