oh my god am I happy to post this
this is my commision for the new chapter of ethnoentomology by @wrongful0 and piston24, this was probably one of the hardest things I worked on but boy am I happy with how it turned out
my thoughts as I read the new (6 months old) chapter of ethnoentomology bc i said would live blog it and this is least annoying way i can do so.
Hornet really just fucking pulled a gun out im like 1 minute fucking in jesus girl.

---
ooooooooh my fucking god he's literally a sopping wet little meow meow. i WILL be coming back 2 this.
---
what this fucking pronoun fuckery i need to reread this shit im onto something. i need to add all my annotations together. i need a conspiracy board. i need to make a chart with color coded lines
---
I wish Hallownest’s official language was anything other than “cryptic riddles.”
me too dude the fuck.

CHANCE BEING EMOTIONALLY INTELLIGENT???? telling lurien he isn't at fault for the radiance's actions
however... how could he think anything else really. he is all for blaming the radiance for everything.
i'm feeling a delicious mix of "can i even trust my own thoughts" mixed with Chance trying to separate what was him versus what was other.
What happens when (if) he manages to separate what actions were wholly him with no outside influence? What will he regret? What will he desperately try to justify?
How would he even determine what is him and what is the influence of the radiance? He has no memory of past actions to compare against. He can't necessarily even trust the memories he does have, they're full of hallucinations, gaps in memory where he doesn't know what he did. If it was "him" that did it. AAAAAAAAAAAUGH
___
is chance checking out of reality a lot rn or am i looking too deep. there seems to be a lot of "jump cuts"
---
back 2 valleri. info dump for me lurien i only read a handful of chapters of midnight rider.
---
"I couldn’t tell you how many times she would’ve been jailed or worse"
wait wasnt she jailed tho. didnt she like. immediately punch pk in the face or am i misremembering. does lurien not know this. i feel like he should be told this information somehow bc like. i feel like it would give him a heart attack.
---
VALLERI LEFT SOMETHING FOR CHANCE???? THE PLOT THICKENS HELLO???
---
why is chance so gay he is SO focused on lurien all the time jesus christ man. i feel like i keep getting trapped in one of them slow burn fics where they keep almost kissing.
FUCKIGN 2 SECONDS LATER:
Having grabbed something from a small drawer in the table behind Chance, Lurien settled back, (disappointingly) further away from him.
chance ur down bad. this is going to blow up in his face spectacularly somehow. good 2 know i wasnt imagining the horny descriptions of lurien from last chapt.
---
new theory: valleri is a time-traveling post-transition chance. source: my other theory that valleri and chance are closely related. similar temperament and appearance. both from california or w/e.
wait i think i remember valleri have future seeing powers. i refuse to finish reading midnight rider until ethno is done tho so i'm keeping my theory
---
Chance reflexively rejected this information before he could begin processing its implications.
side effects of having magic powered by belief: may decide to just ignore things bc if u believe it you make it true. denial is a powerful drug
wait. hmmmmm.
did the radiance take chance's memories? or did chance want to forget? like could also totes be the cool magical barrier that wipes ur memories to prevent the radiance from escaping the corpse of hallownest. but now i am thinking of all the fucked up implications of something so horrible (by a teenagers standards) that chance wanted to forget everything.

TUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUSK MY BABY TUSK POV TUSK POV TUSK POV
oh no the baby is injured.
They needed to find Chance. He would heal them, like always—
ur honor they love each so much!!!!!!!!! might be becoming a lil codependent but ITS FINE
---
checks out that hornet was a vicious little child lmao
---
“For Hallownest, there is no cost too great. That is what I told Him.”
OH SHIT
---
oh fuck yeah i fucking love use of game mechanics in stories for problem solving. go little guy go!
---
HEY WHAT THE FUCK WHAT THE FUCK
Like life’s just a script and she’s waiting for her cue.
OH? paralleling what lurien said about PK. INTRIGUING.
(fucked up evil theory: The parallels between PK and Valleri that are being drawn here... from what I understand Valleri became INCREDIBLY close and attached to hallownest. What if Chance is Valleri's hollow knight?)
---
The White Palace was destroyed. But so was the Watcher’s Spire, and Chance could put that back.
my sweet child, you are going to fucking kill chance
---
Too cowardly to confront her own cowardice.
ruh roh raggy. hornet's going to have to contend with the fact that she has killed her own siblings in cold blood eventually. possibly soon
---
fuck yeah i love worldbuilding. tell me more about how the fictional bug city built in a wet cave functioned and how the class divide determined transportation methods.
---
*slaps chance* this baby can fit so much PTSD in it
---
this is spelling euphoria isn't it.
---
hey wait doesn't chance have boat trauma??? didn't he see a corpse under a boat in the last chapter of act 1???
---
something bad is going to happen. we're building so much suspense.
---
"Chance"
??????? WHAT THE FUCK IS GOING ON NOW???????
---
draped half overboard like a dirty wet rag
chance's natural state really.
---
something in their Void was churning
This happens directly after Chance has his little episode with the boat. Are Chance and Tusk connected by the void? Didn't something similar happen in the last chapter??
---
Hornet i love u. She's so spiderman coded.
---
—Tusk whacked the switch to the elevator and went up and away. “Wh—Vessel! Hold on!”
see u idiot
---
Ah Lemm, the confidence of a man who is very very wrong. he'd shit his pants if he saw all the human shit in the junkyard lmao.
---
Several photos were attached to the line and dangled from ceiling to floor. Dozens of lines around the room like party streamers, a hundred little memories swaying gently in the dust.
megamind ass organization system
---
burned painting frame.... coating the room in ash.. im sure this holds no significance whatsoever and won't come up again.
---
Tusk has so much youngest sibling energy lmao
---
uh oh hornet. ur getting attached.
---

WAHT THE FUCK
---

---
wait does chance not know shes the princess. lmao
---

---
IM GOING FERAL VALLERIS SEEING SO MANY THINGS AT ONCE AND REACTING TO ALL OF THEM HELLO?????
---
oh my god i feel like ive been punched seventeen times in a row. i have so much hype i need to run a marathon. im fucking spinning in circles im filled with unrestrained summer fun oh my god im supposed to sleep soon i dont know if i can manage stop thinking long enough to do that holy shit
starting this with a bunch of random doodles for ch 36 of ethnoentomology, by @wrongful0 and piston, a fic that made me lose my fucking mind it's so good
Fun Fact: a trope that always gets me is "brainwashed/controlled group suddenly start moving/speaking in sync" idk why but it always skeeves me out and this part made my skin crawl
