Summer to Winter, Forest Edge - August-December 2025
Don’t go where I can’t follow
I'm not really satisfied with how this came out but i kinda like it anyway (•́︿•̀)
toxic yuri!! i don't think Max would replace Chloe with Safi and pretend like it's her but it's just a silly idea that i had
Safi should have been central in Reunion
Double Exposure ended on a grand note. In a sense it felt like the franchise would experience a big shift. Reunion could have been such an awesome game. The arrival of Chloe brings a big factor into the story and I really like the merging of the timeline paving the way for that to happen.
However the story oftentimes makes it seem like it's the only factor. And it feels like many characters from DE got pushed aside for that to happen. Not even mentioning the discarded storylines the ending of DE was teasing to develop. And as the final choice in DE shows Safi is central to it all. The parallels between Safi and Chloe are very clear, yet her presence is sparced. The title itself also aludes to double meaning... isn't there a reunion between Max and Safi as well?
Recently I found an article that puts all of this really well, I recommend reading through.
It explaines that Chloe and Safi should have been the game's two emotional poles: "Chloe and Safi are not interchangeable, and that is the point. Chloe could have embodied grief that still grows, messy and scarred but still capable of loyalty, humour, attachment, and some kind of future. Safi could have embodied the opposite. Grief that contracts. Grief that starts dressing itself up as certainty, control, disguise, and withdrawal. Max in the middle then has a real role. Not just stopping a catastrophe, not just solving a cover-up, but trying to hold together two people who represent different futures of pain. That would make Max’s struggle active in the right way. She is not simply saving a place. She is deciding what kind of person she is in relation to two forms of damage."
As a Safield shipper to me this also underscores the glaring fact that Chloe is the only romanceable character in the game. In every game there is two options, two romanceable characters, two choices in significant decisions. Why not here? Don't get me wrong I don't mind the game straying from its usual mechanics, but a choice based game limiting your choices and not expanding them? I understand players can't choose everything in order for the game to tell the story it wants to tell, but this is a choice that presents itself!
Anyway... I guess I am bitter.
Starting off Day 5 of my Birthday Subathon with Ebb!!!! Gonna try to really go hard in this, and then finish off TimeShift fucking FINALLY (its not long but boy do some parts draaaaaaaaag lmao)
I’d like to do an AU verse with Life Is Strange. One for Thomfield and one for Safield. I have a few ideas nothing concrete though.
What are some worlds you’d like to see the Double Exposure characters in? Plus some OG’s of course.
Thomfield and Safield ships need some love and a variety of fics. I’d like to see them grow!
Hidden treasures and a coffee to boost your search, the perfect combo! 🗝️☕🚘
