i havent been on tumblr or social media per se ever since ~2016 idk anything anymore
thanks for stopping by & have a nice day (^∇^)ノ♪
made this blog primarily to dump oc content (so much oc content) & liveblog my playthrough. its my first time engaging in a fandom space like this tbh. do lemme know if i mess up with tagging or etiquette or smth. i personally don't need anything tagged, but i do block fl spoilers. more about me here.
my main FL acc (Hreisz) is from 2016 but i only actually started playing last august! ive finished LF in october but theres still a lot i dont know about the lore n stuff (mid-railway, havent started firmament). also got 2 alts but havent progressed much yet.
"H. Reisz", aka The Twilight Phantom // The Clawed Captain
| LF (Looked Upon Fondly) | Oneirotect Silverer | ???
Hyacinthe R., aka The Sombre Pursuer ; Seeker
| Nem | Crimson Engineer Correspondent | English-Romanian
"Zé Brito" or "Sev", aka The Zealous Backlander
| BaL | future Monster-Hunter | Mixed Brazilian-British
The 4th. don't worry about it.
someday ill get around to write/draw nice profile pages. someday. meanwhile, cameos & headshots for everyone here.
feel free to send a CC or even just random in-character letters & menace help reqs :3c im a lil rusty but i'd love to write more. (i dont check the alts as often tho!)
always open to asks/interactions here as well, just keep in mind i might take A While to respond as i am but an hermit with the barest of executive functions. as a tag rambler i also love to read tag rambling on my posts so feel free to go off!! and also 🥺 to those that leave nice comments on my posts u must know i reread them all the time.... tysm........
tag directory:
#itme -> gen/personal tag (not necessarily abt fl), sometimes with a sonathingy
#chaindoodles -> art tag, #chainrambles -> text tag, lore & hcs
#chaintunes -> posts with music links/recs #chaincomics -> stuff w panels #chainwords -> proper(er) writing, not only rambling
ㅤㅤ
#reiszcore -> reblogs abt the (main) blorbo #cinthecore, #zécore
#hyacinth & bluebell #THE BODY REMEMBERS
#nightmarriage -> ship tag.
my blorbo hoards trash. block this to be spared from witnessing their most questionable decision (i.e chaining their stalker to themself so they won't be alone. this is toxic. pls heed the cw list below).
#suggestive in case i draw (or write?) smth that can be perceived as saucy, spicy, horn knee, overtly kinky or implied nsfw. there wont be anything Actually explicit (i.e. genitals) here though. im not the best judge so if u feel something needs a mature tag please do tell me!
body horror (mostly the shapeling arts extra limbs mouths kind). maybe mild gore. am also Rly Bad at judging whats gore and what isnt. i Really Like blood and injuring my characters both mentally and physically so uh. that. possibly violence.?
jokes aside, i like exploring heavy themes: mental health & psychological issues; abuse of all kinds; general horror; death & grief; crippling alienation; one's relationship with pain & self-destruction (including suicide), intentional or not - these are all concepts that are gonna be present in the things i make one way or another. some mild religious iconography as well bc although im not religious i was raised catholic & i like playing w/ the aesthetic.
#poor edward <- ngl he might as well be an adopted oc at this point shdjfk lots of headcanons + the marriage is influencing his development over time as well. he comes with bonus creepy stalking themes & possible cws for violent sadomasochism + general dubcon/noncon; plus cws abt medical horror & child abuse (for his past - #the orphan)
+ #edward for stuff am not putting on his main tag for one reason or another bc i fear i spam it too much LOL simple mentions & sus posts tend to go here as well
needless to say i dont particularly recommend this blog to minors.
So who's this "Twilight Phantom"?
^ obs.: this playlist is in chronological order and 100% of the lyrics apply :D
[last updated: never. this is my self-callout to write bc ohh boy evolution was an entire year's worth of timeline progression SO MUCH HAS HAPPENED. ITS BEEN 3 IN-GAME YEARS...]
while i dont manage to wrap up a giga summary, skimming through the #fallen london oc qna, #chainwords, #chaintunes (all of which have Very Few posts) & #fl liveblogging tags should get you some key character info about Reisz! hyacinthe's main tag is fine but i only belatedly realized their Lore stuff gets all but drowned in the silly stupid ship stuff welp . head in hands.
have 2 coloured refs below, the 2nd being one of their latest fits + current hairstyle
they can look either masc or fem! ✨ covered in tiger stripes scars. the ones on their face are very deep & gnarly - they can't move their mouth well on that side due to the damaged muscle. also standing at a minimum of 1,81+ and being visibly fit plus a legendary charisma means they tend to uh. stand out a little.
Important to note that I play a strict game with myself when it comes to my main blorbo: 98% of what the FLPC does, in the exact order i do it, is canon! these are Da Rules.
This also applies to small things like their possessions/wardrobe, for example - they pretty much only have the in-game items I own in the account to wear. And well, when the game says they have 3k rats on a string. They have 3k rats on a string. Somewhere. Finding out reasons to explain why they keep the things they own is part of the challenge. (this game made them out to be a weirdo, naturally) It's been lots of fun to see this clean slate (and i do mean clean - i knew nothing about the setting/lore, or who they were as a person, so. well. this guy didn't either) get shaped by RNG, the narrative, And my mechanical wiki-fuelled optimization decisions.
another extra rule i made for myself as a treat was making them a sponge to compensate for their inherent, well, emptiness. this means they take after Something from each important NPC they get involved with.
Reisz is a singer because of Clara and her twin. they only own a lab & got interested in studying & research bc of Dr. Vaughan. they got a taste for exercise bc they accompanied Hephaesta's workouts for so long. and so on and so forth.
Their "married" situationship also only progresses (or not) in a similar gamified manner. To sum it up, I roll a bunch of dice (d20) whenever I draw Edward's card and build on the results and context. RNG can be quite the co-DM, i'll tell you that. lol
(they are also a nemesis spoiler. write-up on the mechanics here.)
ill make a better, dedicated profile post eventually but for now have this ANCIENT intro (post-ambition, from october) + some early refs below:
The first thing you notice about them is the cowl lazily draped around their head and shoulders, swaying behind their back like a cape in the colours of sunrise-- or, perhaps most familiarly, the velvety twilight that the newest star every so often provides to London.
The second thing is the deep scars covering one side of their face, and the third thing would probably be the heavy eyebags under their sharp, dark eyes.
A relatively freshly-minted Silverer, H. Reisz spends more time in Parabola than London nowadays. Not that they had been in London for too long anyway, and it's not like anyone knows where they were before that either. The surface, yes, but it's a big world out there, right?
They don't actually remember seeing the sun, or the sky, but H cannot deny the soft colours of twilight and sunrise have a special place in their heart. They recognise it without the memory of experiencing it, just like they recognised love in the depths of a certain Labyrinth. Hmm, two Labyrinths, actually. There was that one heiress too... and the Orphanage was inside one hell of a maze too... if they had a coin every time they found themself inside labyrinths, they'd... Uh, where were we?
Well, anyway, being a new face, they had nothing to be known for so they simply gave out their surname instead. Or well, what they assumed to be their surname. "H. REISZ" were the letters sewn-in on a diminute corner of the tattered black veil that wrapped their head back when they woke up for the "first" time. They were surrounded by near-empty bottles of dried mouldy honey, absinthe, and who knows what else. Ah, the decadence... they couldn't even remember what honey could do at the time but they could recognise the stench of self-destruction right away, haha.
Alas, if things were so bad they got to that point-- maybe this explains why moving on was so easy. Maybe they had somehow lobotomized themself on purpose. Who knows?
They sure don't.
It was only now, a year or so after waking up, that an epithet has started to stick around-- specifically by their actions as a Silverer and the services they provided. From nightmare-slaying to fishing out vestigial memories (the irony of an amnesiac doing this is not lost on them) to guiding and safeguarding lost dreamers, their glimmering signature cowl and the way it flowed rather phantasmagorically in Parabola started to leave an impression. To many dreamers, seeing a hint of pastel twilight colours signalled safety. It signalled someone you could trust to get inside your head.

hey guysss so unfortunately the rumors are true and im leaving the narrative. Buttt the good news is my absence will create such a gaping hole in your lives that it will become a sort of presence itself, and so in a way it will kind of be like i never left! But i am. Leaving just to be clear.
looking over the ghosty(&hubby) account for all the edward thoughts and i love it. he is Basking in what seems like a victorious revelation. edward is going to be weird and smug AND this is after the 1/20 roll jesus CHRIST
shdfjdfj the poor edward experience is rly just
a literal few days ago he was in one of his worst IT'S SO OVER moments in recent history and now he has never been more WE'RE SO BACK. hes skipping around london in his own skin and stealing candy from small children on his merry way carefree....
i do wonder how long this is gonna last but ur right. smug forever. his suffering had meaning, see. everything had meaning even his initial tragedy. it was all setup. he can accept having his life be a string of horrors in which he never had any agency if (in his eyes) the one that ruined it all was made for it and never had any agency either. this is awesome actually
also. since u mentioned it,
turns out im so glad i decided to stall and had the fortuitous 1x20 come up before tossing him in the waswood bc uh
didn't do much 🔮 divination 🎲 bc stupid irl responsibilities keep getting in the way so i havent figured out exactly what happened other than being actively evilly lovebombed and [redacteds] but. the slightly scrambled state was crucial in helping push him towards this new mindset i think
△ zé - what if he can't go back to the surface :(?
The entire group goes silent for moment, there– soon the mood picks up again, the other idle chatter resuming in the circle. But you can tell something is different. You could swear you saw some of the women around the tavern glare at you.
Zé is still tying new beads on his harpoon as normal. If he noticed something, it's not addressed. "That's defeatist talk, pal"
He sorts through the pieces on the table with his fingers. Tiny pieces of bone, shells, fragments of horn and chitin.
"Been here for quite a while. Haven't gotten myself into that boat yet, but I am well-aware of the rumours...", he pauses to count the beads. Paying attention to it, you notice a pattern on the sequence of pieces. It looks like a rosary.
"O, the lack of faith! Di doê o coração. There are only two truths in this world, my friend: One, if there is a will, there is a way; and two, this being a truth men are exceptionally cruel about, is that there is a price for everything"
He lets out a single laugh. Not particularly bitter, but thoroughly unsatisfied.
"Everyone knows that's something you can pay for. Come on. It's right on the bloody shelf–" Zé clicks his tongue, placing a knot after each bead with professional efficiency. "-what's that if not a reminder to all folk that even down here, where miracles abound, that freedom is restricted to the hands of the rich? Ahh. 'magina a minha raiva"
...You don't speak that language, but you more or less guess from his tone.
Then he sighs, deeply, and begins smiling carefree again.
"If there is a will, there is a way. That's one way. I'm not too worried, friend. It's not my time to cross that bridge yet. But I will. I have plenty, pleeeenty of will"
Zé leans in and brings the new handmade and uniquely neathy rosary hanging from his harpoon – one of many – to his lips. A red crackle flashes in the air near his face for a split second.
"Amém"
6/10 - It used to be a 8, 9, even a 10/10... but this man has been living in London for a while and married a bunch of neathy citizens. People probably asked him this exact question lots of times since he is very open about his goals of getting $$$ to buy land near his hometown... I'd be insulting his intelligence if he had somehow been kept in the dark all this time! Zé has had time to think about it. He will return. Trust.
(i snile evily)
rip to this one in the north pole tho. wish i had gotten a screenshot back then the wip was quite cute. i deleted the script extension so i only have the overlay file...
