#tp david

Oh! In that case, he would've been pretty chill tbh. I've always pictured him as an easy-going guy and I can imagine him rolling his eyes at Maria's and Livvy's overbearing tendencies. I think Livvy would be a bit less obsessed with her baby sibling because the fear of losing them the way she lost her dad wouldn't be there.

I think I answered what kind of dad he would've been before and it's probably tagged tp david, but I said something like he would be the partner-in-crime type of dad, the "go, I'll talk to your mom" kind.

My first finished animatic! but not my first started I wanted to go ham and make one last big thing before I get busy with my spring semester XP

If you haven’t yet, check out The Passenger at @the-passenger-if !

Check out Sweet Tooth by Scott Helman on YouTube!

I would link directly to both of these things but this post would get blacklisted if I do so

(tbh the second half of this animatic is pretty roach-centric, but listen, I’m gay, and one of the chorus lyrics is “I hold hands with cosmic entities” soooooo)

Another ask that deserves an in-universe and meta answer.

In-universe: I can imagine Maria divorcing David not too long after Newman takes over. She would be so freaked out; logic would tell her that her husband is going through some sort of psychotic episode, but deep down she would know that that person isn’t her husband anymore. She would find herself thinking about demonic possession and she would scoff at the idea, but what else could explain the otherworldliness of it all?

For Newman’s part, their casket would be (at least) 56 years old when Tzr’nekre finally catches up with them. I think Roach would be part of the game because they went out looking for Newman. Maybe Horizon too? Since they are the leader of the cult Newman is using for energy.

Meta: TP wouldn’t be as entertaining as it is n_n” A fixed MC tends* to be a big no-no in interactive fiction. I mean, one of the most alluring things about ifs is shaping your character and how they react to the story, so being forced to play as a 50-year-old dude would turn off most people I think.

Another ask about David here

Funny. He used to whistle tunes when he was in a good mood, and he whistled a lot. That's maybe what Livvy remembers the most; how she could hear him coming back from work. She was his princess, and maybe he spoiled her a little bit.

The thought of our ma running the bakery singlehandedly for about 2 decades before Livvy and we were old enough to help out is crazy.

People from the neighborhood would give Maria a hand and she had some employees before her children were able to work.

How did her hair not go white earlier?!
