New trailer/preview of Snezhnaya dropped Um if you haven't seen it go watch NOW this will contain spoilers obviously :)

Some of us are still recovering from that one 1996 episode of Defenders of the Realm.

I’d like to pretend that underneath all the metal panels there’s something still resembling a human underneath all of the cyber Lin Kuei. You gotta keep that nervous system intact so you can still access that aeromancy. Plus, doesn’t it make it a little bit more horrifying if your boyfriend peels back your mask and sees half your face looking back at him? 

It’s Mortal Kombat, this fandom can handle a little bit more body horror. 

Taking hot steamy baths to speed up the shed progress. Peeling it prematurely and hurting himself on accident. Trauma bonding with Vil whenever he's molting.

I like that you had him not eat the skin. That would make him feel too non-human. I think Kalim might try to steal shed when he can and put it in a little jar. Just because he's werid like that. I feel like he would also keep inscect molts (but he has to keep them in a drawer or Jamil will flip out)

ooo yea yea! i was literally just thinking about the behavioral impact- like even if he doesn't experience a full body shed (like- i don't even know if he has eye caps to worry about!) but the vulnerability & like.. embarrassment? that'd come with the whole process? would probably lead to a lot of the same behavioral changes

He'd totally try and peel it off early too 😭 god knows he'd get impatient/frustrated and try to rush through the process.

+ FOR SURE! i love creaturey aspects a ton but there's something to be said about striking a balance.

also HELPPP . oh my god. yeah. funny. lil keepsake. i know i was joking last night about Kalim letting the whole shed thing slip during one of his pop music club meetings to which Lilia is IMMEDIATELY pivoting into dad mode

Although now I like the idea that his ob made him even more snakey

OOOH let’s see….

ok so this may have taken me forever to answer bc i made a full chart. lol. BUT!!! rough vibes i'd say.

So the 10 I had to do for my class is completed. But my teacher insisted I finish all 78 cards. GUESS WHAT I'm weak and I said sure! But due to the lack of characters in twst, this might be an extremely slow burn thingy. Plus class works, life whatever there is but I'm determined to finish the full deck. Don't quote me on this later.

Also here's my favorite detail about the cards that no one noticed<3

And my class project no one asked for!
