And cause i wanted to draw lil oly
Owltober Day 9: No Astrolathe AU
The NA AU is one of my long-time faves I rarely discuss. Also, young Morry is hard to draw with my art style... Frickin' kiddo needs to have a better reference. Him and Cal, but Cal's got my own issues with drawing him.
Anyways, this is the whole kid squad for that au! From left to right: Morry, Sasha, Augustus, Milla, Truman, Hollis, and Caligosto.
(All of them are majorly traumatized but we love 'em anyways. Feel free to ask me about them?)
[ image: a loose, black and white comic featuring boyd cooper and lil oly from psychonauts. the first panel has boyd looking out of his home from between the venetian blinds, only visible as a pair of eyes in the darkness. barbed wire wraps around the window. the second panel has lil oly, holding mr bun, standing on the sidewalk outside of boyd's house's barbed fence. he's saying something, but he's so far away that the text is just squiggles. he looks worried, but mr bun looks bored. the third has boyd startling back from his window, deeply unnerved. ]
i assume lil oly wandered around boyd's head on accident as oleander put the milkman in place...

P2 Countdown- 44 Lil Oly and Mr. Bun
Be the meat circus you want to see in this world
I’ve been thinking about what Morry’s brothers would be like. Since no one really talks about them. (then again not much to even talk about so.)
I see them as the type of people who joke about everything and never really take anything seriously. The type of brothers who will call their younger brother “baby brother” even if he’s an adult, teasing him relentlessly.
They both can be very insensitive and destructive, not fully aware of the damage they have done until it’s too late. Which has lead to their relationship between Morry to be, Rocky, to say the least.
Also they both totally had/have a morbid curiosity with dead animals. Were the kids that played with the animal corpse (and teasingly chasing their brother with it ).
I actually got quite emotional writing this... :^( Original post!
8. What Moment/s Made you Feel Emotional?
GET READY FOR A LONG POST GUYS. This entire game was an emotional rollercoaster for me, I’d go from laughing hysterically one second to bawling my eyes out the next. No exaggeration, I’m very emotional when it comes to fiction. And good lord, there were a lot of moments that made me feel things. First up, I’d like to mention the entirety of Gloria’s Theatre. Not only do the Memory Vaults provide her backstory, the Stage Actors also act out various pieces of Gloria’s life. The parts where it’s revealed that Gloria’s mother was forced to give up Gloria to Hagatha Home because of her mother’s boyfriend / agent made me feel so mad, she didn’t deserve this. One part that sticks out in my mind that I’ll never forget is the acting that goes along the lines of “do not leave me Gloria, or I will do something terrible to myself that will scar you emotionally”, foreshadowing the Vault with Gloria’s mother’s suicide. The fact that she couldn’t act anymore due to her mood swings thanks to her mother’s death makes me so sad. I seriously hope she’s a lot better now.
Next up, is Milla’s Children. I have a soft spot for orphanage stories, and I was really happy that Milla had such a great time with her children, but I certainly wasn’t expecting the orphanage to go up in flames when I flicked to the next slide. It really boosted my love for Milla and shows that even the happiest of people can be the saddest (just like Crystal and Clem). This plotline shows up again in the Rhombus of Ruin, which shows how much sorrow Milla must feel.
Sasha’s First Loss was the moment I knew I was in for some heavy stuff when playing this game. I feel for children who grow up not knowing one of their parents, and I’ll get to that in a few days. A death of someone close to you is a terrible thing to sustain... but Sasha was too young to remember her properly, which makes this whole situation a lot sadder for me. It also makes me emotional that Sasha’s dad probably didn’t raise him like a normal child, one with a loving family and who had tons of fun as a baby due to his depression. Maybe that’s why Sasha’s so closed off?
Of course, how can I not mention Lil’ Oly? I absolutely adore Coach Oleander, and seeing his childhood trauma made me both upset and angry. Upset for Lil’ Oly for having to witness the trauma of having a pet killed in front of you by your own father nonetheless and angry at Oly’s dad for doing so. Don’t raise your children to turn out the way you want. You might have been in the army and run a butcher shop, but your son might just want to hang around bunnies. This was the Vault I couldn’t muster to even make fun of in certain circumstances. My feelings for Lil’ Oly here are very strong.
Finally, I’d like to leave this on a positive note. The biggest part of the game to me, which made me tear up in happiness, was the moment Augustus made his way into Raz’s mind to help him with the mess he got himself into. Augustus seemed so upset to see Raz’s mental figure of him, and explained to Raz that he could never hate him, and that he loved him and wanted to protect him from anything that would harm Raz. Sometimes your family might do things that seem awful at the time, but they’ll often have their reasons, and when you do find out, your connection with them will grow, and who knows, you might be more alike than you think.
