dragon Gabbro for @nephtheless' fic Movement
More Pye and Ramie because they are dear to me
okay my dear friends, interact with this post in some way if you want me or my team to DM you about the Something Outer Wilds For Adults (its not strictly nsfw, just For Adults) on wednesday ::]
Movement
Definition #1: A piece of music that can be performed on its own, but is often part of a greater composition.
Here we have four of the Founders with their signature instruments: Feldspar on the bagpipes, Hornfels on the fiddle, Gossan on the acoustic guitar, and Esker on the bodráhn.
Together they perform some very soulful music, but just let them have a couple of drinks and it'll quickly evolve into foot-stamping, heart-pounding, grin-triggering reels and jigs 🎶
Lore and musical inspiration below the cut:
Gopy blast because I love them (also I wanted to draw them before I get really busy next month LMAO)
Also autumn outfits because summer is killing me and I need autumn vibes <3
HEARTHRISE
Hearthrise is my remix of @deku-pipe-link’s piece, Timber Hearth From Space, for the @outerwilds-events Resonant Echoes Remix event!!
My remix was based on the Apollo 8 mission, more specifically the Earthrise photo!!
Hey, Esker!
Did you know you’re loved? What’s the best (and worst) part of staying on the Attlerock?
*speechless*
Oh stars, that's *tears up, lip wobbles* very kind of you. I don't know what to say...
*lowers hat over eyes, clears throat*
Best part, eh? I'd say the Outpost's glory days have come and gone. Used to be great when the astronauts would swing by frequently to refuel and repair their ships. Nowadays... Well...
It is quiet up there. Gives you room to think, and all that. Plus, you can't beat the view. It's the perfect spot for keeping an eye on what's going on down in the village... from a distance... non-intrusively, and purely from a place of benevolent concern. No, it's not spying. *clears throat again*
The worst? Well...
*gazes blankly into the distance*
It gets pretty lonely at times. And having a lot of room to think isn't always a good thing. The shadows start or feel thick, the darkness becomes loud... Eventually, you're hearing things that aren't there... seeing things that aren't there. Worst of all, you start to question stuff that never bothered you before... And then you begin to wonder if people are happier without you around... and if you were ever really needed in the first place...
...
*looks up and smiles*
But I guess I was just lettin' the silence get to me.
*tips hat eloquently*
Thanks for stopping by, stranger.

Imagine the travelers spending so long away from Timber Hearth that they get more used to the environments of the other planets.
Chert is so so so cold back home; Ember Twin is always sweltering, being so close to the sun, and they just can't seem to get warm on Timber Hearth. Refuses to go outside in winter.
Riebeck stepping carefully, expecting everything around them to be delicate, assuming the ground might open up beneath their feet at any moment, that they might fall with any wrong move.
Gabbro conditioned by Giant's Deep's 2x gravity, their movements ponderous and slow. They put too much force into everything, like when you pick up a cup expecting it to be heavy with water but there's barely an inch left and you splash it all over your face.
Feldspar sticks to the shadows, to enclosed spaces. Moves quietly, always scanning the room, always aware of their surroundings. Hypervigilant. Any sudden noise or movement has them on alert, laser focused on the source, staring it down with ravenous wide eyes, body tense. It might be predator, it might be prey. Either way, they must be ready to leap into action.
And then there's Esker. They've been alone on the moon for so long. It's so quiet there, sound can't really travel beyond their little bubble of atmosphere, carefully cultivated by their own weathered and bony hands. Maybe their lungs had gotten used to the moondust, and they find themself with worse allergies when they finally get to go home. Maybe they get overstimulated easily, in this place where the air is always in motion, where there's always sounds and water in the air, where explosions happen on the daily and it doesn't necessarily mean they have to fix something themself.
if I wrote a fic where Feldspar is stuck in DB I'd include a scene where they're struggling to keep their campfire going, symbolizing their own weakness, even when they are determined to keep it alive
I found this and my first thought was "RegBro ring"
::]
Awwwwww!!
They can have a frog-themed wedding and be toad spouses 🐸💕
Here, I wrote their wedding vows:
'I now take this newt be my perpetually moist loaf, to tease and to terrorise, to dance and to laugh, to roast mallows and stargaze, in joy and in sorrow, for as long as we both shall tolerate each others' insufferable quirks, or 'til we return to stardust ✨'
disco elysium being free on epic games today is evil as fuck. i beg of you guys just pirate it, the amount of claims on the free game will still tell the assholes who stole the game from the devs that Oh We're Still Relevant :). just pirate it. my christmas gift to you! pirate disco elysium
my fucking christmas gift to you (links to an internet archive listing)

Movement: Behind the Scenes✨
From Chapter 5 (now on AO3)<-
Small prefacing blurb:
I had no idea Movement was going to turn out the way it has so far! What started as a fun little 'what if?' vignette has become one of my favourite projects! I've really enjoyed looking into different cultures and styles and foods and music and even discovering some really cool places while doing research for this fic 😌
The story itself has also morphed a lot, and I must say, I'm quite happy with it! It's generally light-hearted, and I'd even go so far as to say it's predominantly a comedy/humour-forward story. I've enjoyed being silly where it fits and pushing the eccentricities of each major character to make them unique. It will most definitely become a Time Buddies romantic comedy towards the end, but the overarching themes are really about Acceptance, Curiosity, and Change ✨
Spoilers below!!
Gypsum decided to flirt with @outerfreak’s Epidote, it didn’t go quite as planned
A giant alien!!
I got to hang out with some amazing Outer Wilds cosplayers recently ^^
You watched Project Hail Mary! How do you feel about it? ✨✨✨
I did! It was great! I laughed a lot and had big feelings :3
I think Gabbro and Grace would make great pals 🤓
Wrote a silly little drabble because a friend said she needed a conversation between Rocky and Gabbro 💕
