Experience Tumblr Like Never Before
Soooooo~ I planned to draw only Pure!Sydney and Corrupt!Sydney for this one, but eventually I ended up drawing all school LIs in a batch, which took a lot of time, but I think they came out nicely
Regarding Sydney - since the game mentions quite a few times that Syd is UNNATURALY strong (even in his corruption route where you cannot push him away or that scene where he fights a bunch of nurses) I decided to add some muscles to him, so he came out a lilttle beefy (which I adore to be honest)
Whitney is not very original I guess, but I suppose he might be scarred a bit and also have some bruises from his fights. He’s also beefy. And his hair is dyed blonde
Robin is a shiny-pure boy, as intended, and he has a lot of birthmarks ( I intended to make him look a little asian, but I dunno if I did well)
And Kylar.....Kylar is a scary lil’ gremlin
(To be honest a headcanon setting for this game in my head is kinda dark, where town is a depressing and sad place, and the Corrupt!Sydney is the same yandere as Kylar is)
I'm in a drawing process of some DoL boys, so I hope they'll come out quite pretty, but I wanna post them in a batch. Tis' will take some time
(But my fav man Syd is already done so...soon)
something I don't see people talk about with Sydney is their theme of accountability. They cannot take responsibility for their own desires.
no matter how corrupted they won't ever say they wanted this out loud, there is like 1 encounter they initiate, they need you to change their hair.
they did everything they did for the temple and for school and for their parent, nothing for themselves. then that devotion turns to you.
I think about their hair so much, they say "I keep my hair natural because Jordan likes it" they look at the magazines at the hairdresser longingly, you can't suggest anything they don't want. But they continue to say "thanks for changing my hair" I am probably not quoting it right but the wording was so delibarate, this is what YOU wanted, they are only happy they submitted to you.
the only event where they initiate the encounter, while working the sex shop together they cuff themselves in the basement and wait for you to "take advantage of them" all playful and cute (it is cute until they do it three times in a row in a day and you just want to get your +sirris love and leave)
if you uncuff them with high lust and corruption, they cuff you instead, and if you refuse here too they just, they freeze if you make noise and sirris gets you free. otherwise they just, leave, Sirris has to resque you, it's weird it's odd
I think Sydney kinda shuts off when you fully reject their advances because they are doing what YOU desire right? you made them like this, they're supposed to be an extention of you.(forever two as one? temple teachings at it again??) literally can't comprehend they had a single selfish impulse seperate from anyone else's expectations.
anyway Sydney is fucked in the head as anyone else in this town even tho they are my sweetiepie pookie bear they need mood stabilizers so so baddd
C!Sydney+PC that I drew and started coloring, then realized that it looks like ass when it's in color 💔
I hope PC suddenly disappears (forever, this time) and Kylar, Whitney, Sydney, and Robin form a nightmare blunt rotation because (assuming high love), were the closest to PC, at least that's what they thought.
I wish they'd have more intense reactions the longer PC went missing. Especially Kylar!
