Something in the Basement

I've been around too long to dump this blog. Ex-rp blog that just vibes on DCA and other nostalgic fandoms. Over 18 critter here that needs a nap.

Hello, call me Selyvn or Squirrel.

I'm the tormentor creator of Dead Man Walking on ao3

This is where you can talk to me or the Characters freely, some may be more forthcoming than others. I don't bite and I thoroughly enjoy yapping, please let me yap at you if you let me!

Tags below to help with searching needs!

Dead Man Walking - Catch all for anything pertaining to the fic.

Chip, Brooks, Citrus, Rook, Ratchet, Captain - Brings up both art and posts connecting to the characters.

Interns - Other's characters

Prior Employees - Posts that have characters that are no longer a part of the team. There will be a number of them.

The Team - All art for DMW

Terminal Log - All drabbles, canon and non. Warnings are listed at the beginning and read more before anything happens. I'll edit to add a masterlist link if/when I need to.

Ask Game Answers - Shows responses to any ask game.

Squirrellywhump is my side blog for all the whump prompts and ideas. It needs to be organized. There I'll post noncanon drabbles so I can keep things a liiiittle separate.

do you fuck with my unwritten story

[wordfather]

do you fuck with the weird guy i made

[lana-is-reading]

since this is being posted i believe a month after the last part im gonna say that yes they've been at this for 4 weeks and grace categorically refused to engage with a weird dream riddle and delegated that in favor studying of his new front yard decoration until frustration finally broke him

we love an avoidant behaviour king

part 1, part 2, part 3, part 3.5, part 4, part 5

+ bonus what i imagine the eridians looked like witnessing the Plot™

random yapping by yours truly below the cut

i have FINALLY finished this thing!! holy crap thank you to everyone who has been following and for the incredible, enthusiastic comments that have been feeding my ego!

this wasn't honestly supposed to go beyond the first part but the muse asks for no opinion when she takes a mallet to your head i guess,,

since ive personally always been a fan of people showing sketches with their work heres some stuff from my process:

these are as i affectionately call them my insane person notes, frantically scribbled down and barely legible to even me

and here's a random warm up page that i did:

once again thank you everyone for your support and interest, it's been amazing

[some-oc-questions]

Are any of your ocs shy? How does that affect them and their interactions with others, if so?

I really needed the last one

[deathcatcher]

"I would live for you" hits a lot harder than "I would die for you" imo. you're so important to me that I would pick myself up out of my grave for you. you give me a kind of hope that I thought I couldn't feel anymore. a future with you in it is a future I want to be there for. dying for you is easy, living for you is making the choice every day to get up and keep going

[wormnextdoor]

i love queerplatonic relationships where one of them is aroace and the other isn't. i love when the allo character has a crush that fades over time. i love when they don't care what they are to each other as long as they're together. i love when romance is an option that they don't choose. i love when both aros and allos feel fulfilled without romance or sex.

[itsoverfeeling]

ppl on ao3 should use the "this work was inspired by" option more. so many fics out there that put links to other fics in the a/n but theres a better option.....

☝️ use this!!!!!!

[itsoverfeeling]

important addition i forgot that not everyone might know. similar to how ao3 bookmarks work, you can also link to non-ao3 fanworks using this format. so, for instance, if theres some fanart on tumblr that inspired you to write the fic? you can link that fanart to your fic!

Wanted a dead dove AO3 badge. Feel free to use.

[some-oc-questions]

Does your oc like the kinds of games where you get those lil virtual pets to take care of?

Or, do they prefer sites with rare creatures/items and trading options? (like Chicken Smoothie.)

Maybe they prefer Pokémon?

[odd-chips]

I think the barber lopped those big naturals off. They don't call it a "clay surgeon" for nothing!

(Also bonus 4 AM sketch that I jotted down so I'd remember to make a cleaned up version later GOIHKDKLFD)

[about-your-oc]

What was your OC like when they were seven (7) years old?

(This prompt brought to you by Tumblr letting me know this blog turned seven today.)

[ocpolls]

Would your oc like you as a person?

We’d be besties

They’d love me

They’d like me

They’d like me but we wouldn’t get along

They’d be neutral about me

They’d tolerate me

They’d tolerate me begrudgingly

They’d dislike me

They’d hate me

We’d be enemies

Nuance/Other

basically my favorite thing to do is imagine The Character in some sort of situation of terrible emotional turmoil. it’s like enrichment for me

[ocwonderland]

What’s your OC’s weapon of choice?
