I can't find the post where a person asked for our non-wistim headcanons so I'll have to make a separate post for them
Rn I really don't have that many aside from stuff from vibes as I haven't watched their series nearly as much as I've watched wistim but here they come anyways
Most of his design is inspired from Riley Robinson from Subnautica btw
He's not necessarily poc but he's at least tan
He looked kinda pale during the events of the Parable bc it took him such a long time to leave the building
Once he leaves, he legally changes his name to Arthur Dent so the company will not find him again (He's not quite sure what happened back there but he'll rather not be involved any longer)
During his time with Alterra, he decides to have some fun with his appearance so he tries different looks with his hair (The dress code isn't very strict for him) including highlights on his hair.
He had just checked out blue during the events leading up to the Aurora crash. He didn't like it very much and was already looking forward to dying it back to his natural color as soon as they landed
Of course, he didn't get to so he had to run swim around feeling stupid until the color faded. Thank goodness he didn't have much access to mirrors in 4546B
He didn't get much sun while working with Alterra either but that gets fixed real quick
He gets one hell of a tanning (Plus some sunburn) during the events of Subnautica + Raft
He's got a love-hate relationship with water now. He cannot stand the look of it but anybody who sees him on it can agree that's where he's most at his element (Well, anybody except Trillian)
He really likes the stars, after leaving the building post-Parable, he took some time to sit outside and stargaze
Is it bad that he's the only pstl main character I can't imagine with long hair? Idk I just feel like he constantly chops it short (it looks ugly af)
Scars from Benjamin, the multiple crashes and other horrors
His therapist recommended he keep a journal which helped him a lot. He has kept up the habit with the Survivor's Logs
That's. That's the only way I can imagine her I'm sorry
She's a very deranged looking Portal Chell
Idk why I've always pictured Becky as looking a lot like Caroline? She just gives the vibe. Oh yeah, also she has glasses. Square, sort of secretary style glasses.
During the events of Portal, she keeps her hair on a ponytail that she remakes every 2-3 tests but during Raft and onwards, she rarely does it anymore. Her hair is held up with hopes and dreams and those are currently losing the fight
She lost the Aperture Science jacket shortly after Earth flooded, now she really only owns a piece of a sleeve she tore off to use as a bandage once
The long fall boots broke off after she used them one too many times on an island. Now she's either running on what remains of them or just straight up barefoot, idk which one works better.
She is very crafty and smart but the combination trauma and brain damage (Both from the cryosleep and the neurotoxin) made her like That
Let's be honest, she probably got some form of amnesia from Aperture Science's testing. Maybe that's also why she picked a new name for herself
Hitting her with the aroace beam, sorry guys I had to do it
The urge to give her hyperacusis like I have. Idk, I just feel like she would have issues with sound but unlike me, she would be very vocal about how it affects/annoys/hurts her (If Arthur ever makes too loud of a noise while tinkering with a machine, she WILL beat him up)
It can be traced back either to the brain damage or as a result of one of the tests
Out of all the protags, I feel like he's the one that looks like Brad the most
Idk what he has but I'm convinced he's got something fked up going on with him, even before the Horrors
He gets nightmares very often.
He's probably very susceptible to stuff that preys on uncanny valley and whatever the fear of dolls is called (The Stranger would have a field day with him)
He's in fact missing his pancreas from the Garden of Banban bs
I agree, after all the shit he's been through, he's going to need at least some type of mobility aid to move around with. I feel like he'll get chronic pain too
During the events of Poppy Playtime, he probably uses a stick or something he finds into a makeshift cane in order to walk the long distances he does
He's got a bit of an unnerving stare, dying a horrible death an ambiguous amount of times and coming back each time will do that to you
The Captain looks very American. Idk how to describe him, he just looks like one
Before the cloning, he was a very intelligent man. He's just. Very stubborn
He's very perceptive, that's partially how he figures out which people to target with his blackmail
He uses an eyepatch (That he doesn't need) that he will switch eyes every once in a while
He's got a very silly looking tan from this habit
He's probably divorced and fought very hard for custody of the children.
He has a dog he will show off to anybody who asks (Imagine him pulling out a whole album of pictures to show off)
Carter has short hair with a tiny ponytail. Don't ask how I know this, I just do.
She's either married to her job or a lesbian.
Johnson is ginger (The horror)
He's tried to have pets ever since he was a kid but they always run away
I don't got anything on Connor or Phillips :(
I've got a very clear mental image for a lot of these guys I need to draw them at some point
