Are You Alright? You Haven’t Really Been Radio Silent But You Haven’t Really Been Active Either,

don't know if I'll get to draw anything for pride, but here's something I need to put out there:

Slay the Princess is probably the most aromantic love story I ever seen

from the way it's told, to how the characters go about it, there's just smth inherently aromantic about the love story between Shifty and Quiet. Smth about how attraction is rarely brought up, how even the most straightforward romantic routes go about it in an unconventional way, the way the characters themselves describe their care and love for each other– it's just so. so very queer in many ways. And as an aromantic person who almost never feels any form of attraction and relates to loveless aros, there's just smth really comforting about a love story that goes about it in the most unconventional ways possible.

silly aftermath

Maybe some Opportunist and Paraniod stuff? Two of the most untrusting voices together could either be really sweet or really disastrous.

i think oppy would want his respect ("did you see that thing with the chanting? incredible! i applaud you, my stressed friend") but para would be having None of It ("get out of my house. Why do you have so many weapons".)

No one had answered this yet, so I'm saying fuck it. Give me a few days and this shit will get written.

Does anyone know of any Slay the Princess fanfics that The Narrator somehow survives and has to face The Long Quiet and The Shifting Mound? The idea has been in my head all day and I need to know if it exists.

He just wants to learn more about his object of affection (in a very roundabout way because god forbid we communicate on the cult grounds).

That’s Namer btw, a reddish fox I assigned to the drink house after seeing him in the little hat.

dyou guys like the poettt.......

The Ray of Light

- Zeus equivalent, solely because he is the king of gods. Vague weather abilities, oftentimes uncontrollable. I like to think he smells like rain. "ray" is also like "rey" which means king.

- Red can have all sorts of meanings, but red is also one of the very few used colors in Slay the Princess, so it works especially well for him.

- He has a lot of softer edges, since he tends to favor that which gets less people hurt. Reasonable, yes, but comparitively softer than most voices.

- A triangle for the pupil, specifically one pointing up. Meant to be similar to a blade's point, but the similarity to a magic 8-ball was definitely a win design-wise. It is empty (unlike others, you'll see later) because he gets influenced by other voices, and it can change.

- I think he has a very lean, sleeper build that he hides under an oversized undershirt. In most terms, however he is perfectly average amongst the other voices; average height, average build, as normal as it gets.

- Also meaning that he is the most like Quiet. Just a little softer, a little less prone to violence. More of a Hero than a Slayer.

The Flora

- Demeter equivalent, since the Witch route has so much to do with nature, and he shows off some hints at it too (his own senses mirroring hers, some other stuff). Demeter is also represented by poppies, which fits for that route. Since Demeter has a lot to do with food, and plants that have to do with food, I thought of it as a good counterpart to the chapter of the Beast, who has to do with animal food and meat rather than plant food.

- Orange has a lot to do with confidence and boldness, and my goodness, does oppy got that. Warmth and vibrance, but undoubtedly a symbol of danger and warning. Pretty and safe, if you know what's good for you.

- The star patterns, as I've explored before, are pretty literal. He is sparkly and beautiful but you aren't supposed to get close. Only to be admired from afar, will hurt you if you step any closer. Every sharp part of him is hidden under a fluffy or smooth exterior.

- Cat-eye pupil with a glint whenever he has some sort of plan or trick up his sleeve, which is more often than not. It always seemed to me like he was moreso the predator within his route.

- He's a little bit smaller than the Hero, and he likes it that way. People like and trust small things. He does try to seem more approachable and attractive with the shaping of his feathers; he purposefully preens his chest to be more accentuated. Unfortunately for him, small tends to mean weaker. However, he is very, very sharp when he needs to be.

- He is a little cleaner, a little more condensed than the Quiet. Always something hidden away. Always preying on someone's downfall.

Tower learning how to be nice.

Alright. One Voice down..
