Derailing Dimmadome

Es not going easy on Amane is a lot less cute, Es slapping Haruka, accusing Kazui of cheating and Kazui blowing them off, Es' distant treatment of Muu, Shidou immediately empathizing with Es as a child... Lots of examples.

The prisoners are all talking with their victim, in a way.

If Milgram gives an explanation for Es, I would not be surprised if they were a homonculus of all of the prisoner's victims, which is also why their age averaged to 15.

It'd explain a ton, from the imagery in Undercover and add to the themes in their interactions in the voice drama.

I'm feeling really called out here

The candlesticks with little drippy hands are just 🥺🥺🥺

Caine's name comes from the bible in Cain and Abel.

Cain gets jealous when his offering is not accepted by God, so he kills Abel. He is banished as punishment, and Cain then founds a city & starts his own bloodline.

He builds a city of people who reliant on him and his care-giving.

That's Caine!

Thinking about this more, Caine is a reflection of AM.

Caine’s simulation is falling apart, because he is abstracting.
He’s a selfish caregiver. He misconstrues needs so he gets to provide them.

His coping mechanism (a human cast appreciative of him) is failing. Is that EP6's implication? #TADC

I should also add the context of my original theory was that Pomni would confront Jax about Ragatha

Jax would abstract during the confrontation with the group insisting he take Ragtha's pain seriously

Ragatha copes by staying quiet to keep the peace so Jax abstracting b/c "her" abstracts her

Oops

I think abstraction is when coping mechanisms fail!

Gangle was saved in ep4 after her mask failed because Zooble reached out to empathize, and Pomni also was stablized in episode 2 when she realized she had Community support

There's a literal pit of despair looming, it's not looking good for Jax 👀

Caine is literally sweeping problems under the rug, that's it, that's the show.

Therapy for everyone!

I think the final message of The Amazing Digital Circus will be about the importance of a community support system of sincerity and connection.

It’ll be an inversely positive one to the doom and gloom regret spiral of suffering and hopelessness that I have No Mouth and I Must Scream ends with. :)

I deleted my theory thread out of embarrassment but the core of my theory is coming together DAMN

Abstraction is when coping mechanisms fail.

Someone abstracts, Zooble&Kinger teach stability, 3rd act they realize they can all reach into the literal pit of despair to save the abstracted.

I've got a neat idea for an AU where losing his family causes Toby's celestial features to rapidly mature and get out of hand on a villain arc.

I've been psyoped into wanting orange juice for breakfast. I don't enjoy oranges or orange juice, but when I go out for breakfast I, without fail, go "yes I could go for some orange juice with my pancakes right now". I am not immune to propaganda

A teenage Toby sits at a table, glaring at an non-human humanoid with a comedy mask for a face. Toby: "You're a creep, you know that, right?" The Collector: "You have made your personal opinion very well known, Mr. Egsbenedict."

This guy sucks.

voice acting a child character is a test of patience and agonizing squeak where the best takes are when your cadence decides to shit itself

Logged into my old pixiv and boy do I want to start doing proper compositions again, I was cooking.

Like 5 years ago I was sitting on a patio of a nice restaurant eating when a young boy walked up and asked for a dollar.

I asked him why and he said he wanted to buy a milkshake at the corner store. I wish I had a dollar to give him, I think about that hustle every day.

I was given a dollar store yoyo at work today as a teambuilding prize and sleeping it has reawakened something primal within me. I'm an adult now. I can buy nice yo-yos now. I'm never going to be normal again. I'm going to be so fucking cool

I'm glad I got to see what Shibuya was like before it was destroyed by Yo-Yo Girl Cop

Using the roll20 letter status indicators we spelled out "Imgaymom" on Cheek, and "<3mygayson" on Sophi

Sophi rolled a 69 on disappointment on her spankin'

Cheek rushes to eat Sophi immediately after she died In the background, Cheek's token has letter status indicators reading "lmaodead"

Many years ago @danimariedraws.bsky.social and I played the mother-son duo of the artificer Sophi and her weird ooze son Cheek!

Drickletit the captive gets shoved into the mud (totally not poop) and D'Eeh is D'Eehd

The DM in horror discovers the Drickletit x D'Eeh fanart we left on the roll20

"You didn't have to do him like that" the DM says, gesturing to the realistic frog saying "Bah... I'm d'Eehd"

We unexpectedly killed D'Eeh, the grung general that @blackcatvt.bsky.social was trying to hype up.

Then, we fed his body to Drickletit, the lizardfolk soldier we had just bullied the DM into naming

It turned out D'Eeh was an old PC of the DM. Oops. I'm glad he likes me

Help I accidentally addwd this man and now I can't remove him

He's hidden here in this map somewhere

His face has been edited onto a guard token and is subtly inserted among their ranks.

I accidentally added this guy to @waltergeistvt.bsky.social's game and couldn't delete him so I edit him into the maps. He's here now, I guess.

Gil makes an awkward sending stone call to tell the Queen that things aren't workng out and she'll be getting a refund for this mission.

A fake miiverse post drawn in roll20. Gil: i wish miracle elixirs were real. Glug: they are

Everyone in the party is drawn and assigned a mustache wearing alter ego

A drawing of Gil laying dead in the family guy death pose with his disguise mustache ripped off. His hometown burning is behind him after the attack by the lizardfolk army goes wrong. Next to him a sign points reading "FREE SAMPLES while supplies last (SOLD OUT)" Don't worry, the battle went great, actually.

Gil Merryman of Gil Merryman's Marvelous Miracle Mercenaries is the party's leader, boss, and an old timey snake oil salesman

When he casts disguise self, Gil puts on a mustache and becomes Bill Ferryman
