AHA!! you thought it was over. you thought i had moved on. you thought you were safe. you were not. it's still here and it will be lurking in the shadows for as long as i exist
unpixelated ver + extras under cut
boo
ive actually had these sprites done for a good while now. i just kept forgetting to post them. sorry!
look at them!! they're totally friendly please stick your hands through the bars of the enclosure
the way theyd function here is similar to tommy, too. theyre both extremely important in hlvrai as a whole, so id like them both to have an effect. bubby definitely something related to fire. coomer probably the powerleg effect from my previous lore dump post.
id like to mention these NPCs aren't the only representation they get in dream world, of course !! they play a very big role in gordons life right before these dreams, i imagine there's multiple creatures and objects across the worlds that represent more minuscule, careful details about them.
as much as gordon can like or dislike it, a trace of them is everywhere, in every door. even benrey, who he'd admittedly rather forget, is only slightly more difficult to find than anything else. theyre too important to be repressed.
im not sure if darnold and forzen would get their own black and white self (as i like to call it, because .. what else do i call it) since they were .. definitely there, and i love them, but they were both significantly minor appearances.
id say they do pretty memorable stuff though (one of them gives gordon a functioning minigun for an arm and one of them holds a dog hostage which i say is not something id forget personally) so they might not get full on sprites but simpler little guys. i dunno.
dream world concepts are super abstract and fun to play with, but it also makes things very tricky.
aneeways, im leaving this the way it is here because it's four and a half in the morning and if i try to think any longer im going to contract multiple heart diseases. bye!!
so this blog is nearly a year old and it’s been so long since i did one of these. i just wanted to take the time to thank a bunch of people for sticking around while i’ve been in and out and adjusting to writing again. hopefully i can remember everybody but again thank you!! you are all such talented and lovely individuals i feel so lucky to be able to roleplay and speak with you all.
