OK IDK IF YOU WATCH HAZBIN, BUT THIS SONG GIVES MAJOR ARTI/SCAV KING VIBES AT SOME PARTS HEHREHR https://youtu.be/gQawIibNIzk?si=d2iy4wssCnYzve13

FHSDHDDJFKD.. .HELLO??

i never in my LIFE would have ever imagined arti and scav king singing broadway style showtunes together, but HERE WE ARE I GUESS ???!?

[its-the-sa]

ATTENTION!!!

I have received...

...them.

they are married.

Just binged as much as I could find of this AU, so I have to ask-

Could Arti ever turn back, and eventually stop being locked at minimum Karma?

hello, i'm glad you like my au!

unfortunately, i don't think there is any way arti can fix her karma anymore. this is kind of important for the story i want to tell, because in the end, redemption doesn't mean forgiveness.

the king may have chosen to forgive arti, but a lot of scavs never will. and rightfully so. she can't magically undo the suffering she caused them, after all. the best she can do is accept responsibility, work hard to make amends where she can, and accept that some of the damage she's done is permanent.

i think her being locked at karma 1 is a good representation of that: it's a mark on her soul that she can never change, but she doesn't have to let it define her. she can learn to live with it, and strive to be a better person in spite of it.

(also, i just think it's funny that the once-terrifying murder queen will forever need an escort holding her hand to go through karma gates, lol )

Holy crap, you ARE alive! It's nice to see you again after *counts carefully* three and a half months!

You were one of my first encounters with Rain World fan content back in May (via stumbling across the ask blog voiceover on YouTube) and I've been keeping track of this blog, however little it moves, ever since.

I would really enjoy seeing more posts from you!

aw, thank you so much! i'm really sorry for the lack of new content; my rain world hyperfixation mostly died out almost a year ago, and ive just been sort of, waiting for it to come back lol. but i think it finally has, and i'm tentatively hoping to reopen the ask blog pretty soon

i would like your opinion, though: do you think people would mind if i started answering most of the questions in my ask blog with text only? at first, i really wanted to answer all of them with art, but i got so many asks so suddenly and i think that's part of why i burned out so fast... i really want to start the ask blog again, but i worry people will be disappointed if i start answering them without any art. what do you think?

anyway, thanks for your feedback! i'm glad that people still like my silly AU lol

regicide makes me throw up and die. my fight with the king was very anti climatic but regardless hes very cute and i hate him

this is the most artificer-coded ask ive ever gotten, thank you

[its-the-sa]

rain world will literally force open your third eye, send you on a dmt-fuelled spiritual journey to experience ego death, and then throw an ea nasir reference at you

truly the game of all time

Wooo! First art trade with someone! And this someone is really sweet! You should check them out! @its-the-sa I really had fun with this piece and I like that ship pretty much. Trauma goes right in here! :)

[its-the-sa]

thank you again for this! let arti get all of her trauma out!

[its-the-sa]

my half of an art trade with @biteybeedrizzle , it's their OC drizzle and his warden boyfriend!

wardens may hate mob sounds, but object sounds just seem to endlessly fascinate them. so i imagined drizzle might collect things that make interesting sounds to show his bf :)

thank you for trading with me!

[its-the-sa]

has this been done yet ? is this meme still funny?

[its-the-sa]

Is it weird I thought Artificer was a Dad?

Like a man, a Dad man. A male slug cat avenging his kids from scavenger

listen I can't be alone in this... Daddyficer?🥺

nah, that's not weird at all!

personally, i see arti as female because i like it when girls are allowed to be feral and violent and dangerous, and i like the 'angry mama bear' trope.. but there is nothing in-game that says arti is definitely female (except the inv dating sim, which is clearly not canon), so he could just as well be a dad.

i know people in this fandom can be really insistent about arti being female, but don't let them bring you down. artidad is valid!

[its-the-sa]

So how do you feel about the fact that your post-canon Regicide AU is now basically impossible because it relied on the idea that the Cycle worked by having everything respawn the next day, which thanks to The Watcher we now know is not the case

idk, honestly i already knew that the cycle probably didnt canonically work that way. even before the watcher it seemed more likely that it worked by making you wake up into a different time strand. for my AU i just decided that everything respawns in the same strand specifically so that scav king could have a chance to get through to arti, cause theres no way they could reconcile without killing each other at least once. it is called regicide for a reason, lol

anyway short answer i guess i am just glad that the watcher gave us the term 'strands' so i can explain this concept easily now

[its-the-sa]

i have a confession to make:

the reason i have disappeared from the rainworld fandom for so long is because i have become obsessed with minecraft. specifically, the warden and the deep dark.

i only mention this because i recently returned to rain world to play the watcher dlc, and now if i had a nickel for every time i have obsessed over a sentient colony of black mold i would have two nickels

one has the mental capacity of a godlike supercomputer and the other has the mental capacity of an autistic grizzly bear. i love them both dearly .

[its-the-sa]

Hey Sa, Hope you're okay.

thank you, i'm sorry i havent responded sooner, but i really do appreciate it

[its-the-sa]

Where have you been? I missed seeing your posts

thank you, and im sorry i was gone for so long, i hope i can still rejoin the fandom

[its-the-sa]

Woah, you post after 6 months. I thought this account was just straight up abandoned.

damn, has it really been that long?

im sorry, i just kind of fell out of my rainworld obsession for a long time, but of course i had to come back for the watcher dlc lol

So, does this count?

This is a recent painting… Well, let them fight.
