I can't lie, it felt like my inability to write good was outmaneuvering my desire to write fanfic, but revisiting Death Stranding and Elden Ring might potentially lead to a *Randelion renaissance. *If I ever stop playing these games to actually write and draw anything, that is.

Apropos of DS, Rex in my fanfic/AU has aphenphosmphobia/haphephobia -- that's always been the idea and was a driving force for the redesign, but it's cool to learn that there's a specific word for such a phobia.

Anyways, some incomprehensible rambling about all that can be found under the cut:

I'll do my best to keep all these thoughts as brief as possible.

So first off, I gotta say that Kojima's style of writing is very novel to me! I'm only ~18 hours into the game, currently in the central region (so spoilers up until that point), and all the dialogue, mail, interviews, logs, etc. all play into the concepts of connections and relationships and scientific inquiry amidst apocalyptic circumstances and a reconstruction of the American experiment and so on -- and I say concepts rather than themes because I know for a fact I haven't fully grasped all the themes that are being presented so far, and I want to develop my own understanding of the game before searching for outside perspectives on it.

As for the concept of connections -- as a Generator Rex fan, this is the kind of thing that really appeals to me! Like, just consider the fact that Rex needs to make physical contact with EVOs so they can be cured and have their sense of control and normalcy returned; in order to become whole again, so to speak, Rex has to reach out to them and extend his hand -- an idea that Higgs taunts Sam about right before the first boss battle when he stresses the importance of a handshake when it comes to making connections.

And I could talk more about how I can relate BTs to EVOs, the functionality of nanites and the properties of chiralium, and so on, but it feels premature to talk about the game any more than I have when it feels like I've just scratched the surface. What I will say, though, is that everything about the game is proving to be a massive inspiration and I really want to depict Rex and Breach with the sort of dynamic that Fragile and Sam have going on so far -- something I could write an entire other post about, but that'll have to be for another time. ^_^;

Next up is Caesar Salazar, or as I spell it for this redesign, César Salazar because just. Just look at him. He looks more like a César.

His actual design in the show has never made any sense to me because it doesn't really tell anything about him as a character, and as a character he is extremely silly. And in flashbacks he wears a nice shirt and tie and neither of his looks scream silly but unintentionally dangerous science guy, which is his character. I feel like my design does a good job with making him the kind of guy that if Van Kleiss said that you couldn’t trust him, you’d go “really??? This guy???”

César also reads as autistic to me so I essentially just defaulted to my signature silly autistic guy design thing and gave him sweatpants with little to no other clothes that actually go with sweatpants. I swear I’m not trying to project, sometimes characters just have the vibe of something I would do. I also gave him a LEGO brick shaped chewing stim necklace because I thought it would be cool to have a little thing that neurodivergent people tend to use as a sort of “I know what you are” thing.

I tried to keep his colour scheme close-ish because it does fit him pretty nicely, but obviously with a big fluffy cardigan instead of whatever his outfit is. Tiny little fun fact, I did actually make him and Rex have slightly different skin tones. Colour pick them, I dare you. You cannot convince me that César has ever seen the sun. The doodle of their whole family was a way for me to sort out what traits César and Rex get from each parent while still making them look very obviously like brothers. Also I think it’s pretty cute.

Now the biggest thing to me in César’s redesign is that he seemed like the kind of guy who would wear socks with either crocs or sandals in a lab setting, because César and lab safety are mutually exclusive concepts. It also gives him an easy-access chancla to smack his unruly experiments. The idea is that it could potentially lead to a running gag that every scientist he’s ever worked with has gotten super pissed off that he doesn’t wear covered shoes in a lab setting and he doesn’t see why he has to and just. Keeps doing it. The mental image of Van Kleiss especially losing it and going off on an off the rails rant when he realises that César is STILL not adhering to basic lab safety is absolutely hilarious to me.

I feel like I put a little more conscious thought into his design than Dr Holiday’s, but the design I have for Dr Holiday just felt correct and it just popped into my head as it was. Next in the design thing is going to be Circe. It might take a minute because even though I have come up with a design for her in the past it needs a bit of tweaking.
