Conceptualisation is here! I think you might see the pattern already, I absolutely enjoy designing Intellect characters but maybe that's because my first ever run was 6 int and crappy all the rest. Had a lot of fun here and as always design concepts and all will be placed in the reblogs.
p.s. she and viscal are definitely girlfriends . Because I like the dynamic
Toothache
Although this might dampen some of the excitement of the mystery(??) I’m glad someone noticed that the figure in the shadows is a young Harry (who doesn’t have a full beard, but rather a moustache like the one in his police ID photo, That is why a blue barcode appears on the left)
The memory of the faceless Double-yefreitor cast a shadow over Satellite’s face,accompanied by a long-standing, nagging toothache.
I got game over immediately after trying to convince Kim that there could be a sexy mysterious supernatural twist to the murder
that idle animation is my everything
and out of the darkness - you you you you you
hi, your kim takes are top notch. I want to pick your brain about the post you made about the rcm possibly taking away his sidearm. If you want to expand on that, of course
TY!!! And Yes I can: On a first pass through the game, Kim’s relationship to his sidearm is easy to read as basic cop vigilance, but once you start watching for it, any time a situation threatens to go bad, his hand goes to the gun. Sometimes even when nothing has happened yet, only when he is on edge, like walking into the book club. And sometimes that vigilance does escalate things, like with The Pigs, where he pulls his gun and starts shouting.
The badge is abstract authority. The gun is authority you can touch. It has weight. It sits on his body. It's physical security and responsibility in one.
The sidearm is the RCM saying: we trust your judgment in the final second.
The gun is symbolically physical in a way the badge is not. Kim is already a seolite man in an institution and a city that does not let him forget it: his authority is conditional. He has to be sharper, and calmer, and more correct, but worse is that the badge does not protect him from being scrutinized. in some ways, it also makes the scrutiny worse. It means he is someone who has been allowed into power, which means people are always waiting to decide he has misused it, failed it, or never deserved it.
So after Eyes dies, that matters in a truly awful way, because grief makes Kim extremely administratively vulnerable. If he is too numb, too angry, too honest, too strange, too changed by it, then suddenly his grief becomes a liability, and the first thing they would take is the gun. Without it, he is behind a desk. Without it, he is no longer trusted to be the person he has spent his entire adult life proving he can be. And worse: without it, he loses the choice of it. The finality. The terrible comfort of knowing that, whatever else has been taken from him, there is still one decision no one else can make on his behalf.
If I wanted to read into it further, I could also talk about juxtaposition. Harry loses his gun, willingly. or, more accurately: Harry disposes of his gun during the bender, along with his badge, his ledger, his memory, his name, and almost every object that proves he exists in the world as a detective except his green coat, and the interesting thing is that Harry does not treat the lost gun with normal professional alarm at first. Everyone around him understands it as a disaster, but Harry’s relationship to it is slippery and avoidant. The gun is gone because the part of Harry that could be trusted with it was also gone. Harry is the nightmare version of what happens when the performance fails, so Kim clings to the gun because it means he is still fit to choose. Harry loses the gun because he has already tried to abdicate choice entirely. And I think this is one of the reasons Kim is so fascinated by Harry, maybe even envious in some humiliating way. Harry has already done the unthinkable. He has become the institutional cautionary tale. He has made his grief, addiction, instability and suicidal ideation so public that everyone knows. The RCM knows. The union knows. The cafeteria manager knows. Strangers know. Children know. And somehow he is still standing there. Still a lieutenant double-yefreitor. Still allowed to come back.
Kim cannot afford that kind of collapse. He cannot afford to become funny, he cannot afford to become embarrassing. He cannot afford to be pitied, watched, handled, or removed from the field. So he does not heal. He remains fit for duty, and he makes certain that he keeps the gun, because the gun means the RCM still trusts him in the only way that still gives his life meaning. He knows it. He hates it. He tries not to think about it. This is his place in the world. If they take that away from him, he does not know what is left.
How dare he left you again
Volition is probably one of my favourite skills in Disco Elysium. Many of his voice lines provide me with so much hope and comfort. And yet, he isn't without his flaws.
He is adamant on shutting down anything to do with Harry's ex-lover, Dora, to the point of complete exclusion.
This is the genius of Disco Elysium because it demonstrates how you can't just rely on one part of yourself, but must take into account all aspects of your inner world.
Confronting his past, his trauma, his failings and his ex-love is vital to Harry's growth as a character. He needs to be able to look directly at the ugliest parts of himself and not be annihilated by them.
Avoiding Dora entirely would mean avoiding the emotional core of his collapse. But obsessing over her indefinitely is equally destructive. The game constantly walks that knife edge.
Volition’s famous line, “You can get through this. Day by day. Step by step” is beautiful because it offers survival. But survival alone is not the same as healing. Healing requires integration, and Disco Elysium is ultimately a game about psychological integration.
I love headcanons of Kim and Harry living together in domestic bliss because in mine Harry would be waking Kim up in the middle of night sobbing because he’ll never get to be pregnant or some shit and Kim who was just in the middle of a juvie ptsd nightmare and 75% of the time wakes up by sitting straight up in bed and going HUH? has to run the numbers like euuurrrrhh you don’t think that’s for the best? And Harry takes morale damage so bad he dies
a friendship so epic that it saved stars
