I'll colour this another time and post it I'm too tried rn😓
how do you feel about yoo mia cannibalism...
HII I’M GOING TO ASSUME YOU ARE MY FRIEND OTHERWISE THIS IS VERY AWKWARD BUT I AM KISSING YOU VIOLENTLY THANK YOU FOR ASKING ME THIS
The interpretation of Yoo Mia through the lens of “cannibalism” mostly as metaphorical framework, not literal implication becomes most analytically productive when situated within the First Scenario as a site of the collapse. The First Scenario is not merely an introduction to survival mechanics in ORV; it is a forced rupture in which social order, ethical frameworks, and developmental protections are dismantled simultaneously, leaving children to negotiate existence in conditions structurally indistinguishable from mass casualty environments
Within this context, Yoo Mia occupies a position that is narratively under-examined but structurally significant: she is a child subject who enters survival discourse at the most materially and emotionally destabilizing point of the system. The presence of corpses, violence, and resource scarcity is not incidental but foundational to the formation of early survival logic. While the narrative does not linger on explicit depiction, the implication is clear: survival begins in proximity to death rather than in opposition to it.
It is within this proximity that the metaphor of “consumption” becomes theoretically relevant. ORV repeatedly constructs survival as a process of incorporation: characters become constellations, narratives, regressors, readers, or systems that metabolize experience into identity. Yoo Mia, however, operates at a more immediate level of incorporation: she internalizes the conditions of survival before she has access to interpretive distance. In early Scenario conditions, even the most basic acts of survival are shaped by deprivation and exposure to death, producing a developmental environment where the boundaries between external violence and internal psychological formation are significantly weakened.
In this sense, “cannibalism” as a symbolic reading refers to the forced internalization of a world where death is ambient rather than exceptional. Yoo Mia does not simply witness survival; she is formed within it. The First Scenario functions as a threshold where the distinction between living and dead becomes materially unstable, and where children, lacking institutional mediation, must cognitively absorb this instability as part of their baseline reality.
Importantly thoo, this is not framed as psychological corruption in a simplistic sense. Rather, it produces a specific kind of emotional epistemology. Yoo Mia’s later characterization, her heightened sensitivity to loneliness, her immediate recognition of emotional distress in others and her tendency to approach even dangerous figures with affective curiosity Can be read as a continuation of this early forced attunement. She learns to read emotional states not as abstract social signals, but as survival relevant information embedded in environments where threat and vulnerability are indistinguishable at first glance.
The result is a person who does not “process” trauma externally but integrates it into perceptual structure. This is where the interpretive framing of consumption becomes most useful: not as literal violence, but as the irreversible absorption of early Scenario reality into the formation of self. The world is not something she survives and then leaves behind; it is something that becomes part of her cognitive and emotional baseline.
This also recontextualizes her position within ORV’s broader thematic economy. Where many characters achieve survival through narrative abstraction becoming symbols, roles, or systems that externalize suffering Yoo Mia remains anchored in direct relationality. She does not abstract emotional experience; she accumulates it. She does not transform others into narrative constructs; she retains them as affective presences.
Soo, the “cannibalism” reading, when applied rigorously, describes not literal violence but a developmental condition produced by the First Scenario: a child formed in sustained proximity to death, where survival requires the internalization of environmental collapse as emotional structure. Her later empathy is not separate from this origin; it is a continuation of it, refined into recognition rather than mere endurance.
In ORV’s logic of transformation, where many figures become something strong and scary, Yoo Mia remains something more immediate and more fragile: a repository of lived emotional states that were never allowed to remain external.
Bit also yehahh she probably did eat a couple corpses when she was alone trying to survive spoiler alert to my upcoming fic😋😋

do you like Ashley because you like wet cat loser energy or do you like him because you're an artist who grow up hearing "art won't pay your bills" your whole life so it's therapeutic to see someone like you have a happy ending?
do you like thad because you like himbo men or because you grow up with set expectations of you that you have to fulfill and you've been chasing those expectations so blindly that now when they're starting to seem impossible you just don't know what happens now because you had no other back up plans?
redesigns are fun :)
Getting Sun and Moon’s final designs finished finally!! I fiddled with their designs a lot and thought I found the right ones before, but man was I wrong.
