[gets in with you]
[gets in my little clown car]
In the tags I mentioned I would explain after 50 notes, but I have no idea what I was on at that time to ask for that much for logic that is so barebones with only a little evidence. So I’m doing it now.
Disclaimer that the only thing I’ve seen about ERROR since making the post is the short plot synopsis that first reveals that the viewer is a transfer student.
The two different states of the animated classroom that Sora appears in struck me as odd. As a refresher: The first looks to be an average Japanese classroom at what I assume to be a early time after school. The second is the same classroom, but now appearing old and abandoned, presumably in the early evening. Why would they show us both of these, while also having Sora both times and looking the same between shots (barring change in expression)? That was when I first had the thought of ghost Sora. Then I directed my eyes to Sora’s feet in the ruined classroom, and saw a broken vase with a flower.
For the uninformed, in some parts of the world (including most, if not all, of Japan) when a student passes away during the school year, a flower is placed on their desk. For me, this sealed the deal. I’m sure someone could say that the flower is an irrelevant detail, but it’s color and presence is out of place when compared to the rest of the room. The repetitive lines that Sora says in the first trailer also struck me as some sort of thing that a ghost who can’t move on might do.
That’s all the initial thoughts, but since the synopsis includes a rumor about bad things happening to those who aren’t nice to transfer students, I should also mention that placing flowers on the desk of a living student is typically a way of saying that you hope they die.
Just some thoughts from before, and I’m probably wrong due to other ideas suggesting it’s a computer program gone haywire, possibly a la Doki Doki Literature Club.
Hey hololive fans, I’m pretty Sora is gonna be dead during whatever the story for hololive ERROR is gonna be

Just so y’all know: I can’t speak for every other fic author but I can say that I remember when people leave me kind comments. I recognize your urls and/or usernames on AO3. I remember you and sometimes in writing my fics I think to myself, “Oh, I hope this person sees this because they liked x in this other fic I did.”
Not only that—I go back and reread comments when I’m feeling low. I look at tags and reblogs and asks and wish I could hold them in my hand like a note from a friend on an old, torn piece of notebook paper.
Your comments have so much more impact than you know. So thanks to those who use the comment section to spread love and encouragement. We appreciate you.
Making this post as part of an organization thing I’m doing since, as of the time of writing, I just added my blog link to my Ao3 account.
Anyways, for posts that are just me talking about things, click the section above called Rambling. And for posts about anything I work on for Ao3, click the section called Writing. That’s... kinda it. I’ll add to this more when I add more to the blog.
Ciao.
Saw this after forgetting you existed for like a month (woops) and just. Dear God. My good tentacled friend, you not only can draw well, but you have a fantastic grasp on the character’s personalities. I’d analyze and comment on the opinions, but I’m not here to put an essay in your notifications (plus i don’t think anyone really cares about me talking about that stuff lol). Please continue blessing us with this content.
I realized that I never made it clear how I perceive the relationship between the main quartet, so here is 2 charts (one simple and the other one more in depth) about how I view each characters relationship and opinions of each other:
This is, of course, my opinion on the matter, yours might differ, so let me know what you think.
(Also, let me know if you'd be interested in hearing some headcanons I have for the 4 main characters, because I'm be very happy to share them lol)
one fairly common experience of gifted children is wishing for pain. wishing you had some great big horrible thing in your past so that you can justify the pain you’re in, and so that you’ll deserve help. it’s exhausting and it fucks you up and to anyone out there who feels like they haven’t suffered enough to get help: you’re allowed to want help. you’re in enough pain. you deserve to feel better
