Double Trouble

Collaboration between Sappedsoliloquist, Tippertot and I for the Collapsed Stars Reverse Minibang!

Double Trouble by Sgr A-Star (tippertot)

Excerpt:

“So hey, what do you think happens if you don't jump into the black hole again at the end of this loop?” you say.

“Huh. That’s a good question,” you reply.

You keep standing there, listening to the rush of the supernova as it slowly burns the planet around you.

“Something bad happens, doesn’t it?”

“Something really, really bad.”

Artwork made by @sappedart and @naryu-n

Fic written by @tippertot

Reverse minibang hosted by @outerwilds-events

These works are the result of a collaboration between three artists; it all came from a single idea: what would happen if spacetime were to be broken at the same time as it is created?

What you see in this post is what we collectively came up with! We hope you like it!

If you're interested in titbits about the whole process, feel free to check out these other posts:

Cover I made for a joke playlist. ... For anyone curious, its OUTER WILDS: THE MUSICAL. You may throw tomatoes now. EDIT:

FINE YOU GUYS CAN HAVE IT.. HERE. I must emphasize that this playlist was hyper impulsive. Context, Not all songs are plot relevant to the story this would otherwise tell, some are here for the vibes. Except Time Warp. Time Warp is Hyper relevant./j

Suggestions also welcome!

I kinda wanna see a Hatchling who is so desperate to talk to somebody, anybody, who gets what it's like to die so many times in so many ways that they spend dozens of loops throwing themself into the black hole, over and over and over again, just to talk to Self.

Just to have somebody who can understand them.

Just to not feel so very alone in the dying universe.

REMINDER TO ANY OF MY FRIENDS WHO SEE THIS. DONT LOOK UP ANYTHING ABOUT THIS HAME PLS I PROMISE ITS WORTH OLAYING AND IT HAS TO BE DONE BLIND OK DONT LOOK UP A

Outer Wilds Spoilers for one ending

Soooo I

I caused an ending by not continuing to go through the black hole

And got an achievement for it

Also finally got to find out where the silly music comes from because of this lol

I think we need more Outer Wilds content of Self. I get that it's just Hatchling but also. It's so interesting to look at the dynamic that a character has with themself when the self is separated from them.

Also interesting to see what could compel Hatchling to jump into the black hole to create Self at all. Loneliness? Curiosity? The knowledge they won't stay dead?

Outer Wilds Spoiler

Soooo now I know why it’s called Self ending

You uh

You can’t get rid of Self. Continuously going through that blackhole will only perpetuate Self’s existence

So uh

Here’s a selfie with Self, while I wait for the sun to die because I can’t sleep the time away with a campfire and idk what’ll happen if I meditate

Time to see what happens if I don’t perpetuate this cycle of having two Hatchlings in the same universe ✌️
