#DVParty Day 6 - Hype other projects!

thepalaceofmemory.com - THE SANDMAN x OMORI

This is a fan project, but I put in a lot of work to make it accessible for fandom-outsiders. 😉 It's a new POV for the game's events with interactive point-and-click sections + lots of hurt/comfort! (Art by me!)

The Ochre God, getting stabbed at a peace talk by the gods that are supposed to be negotiating with each other:

#DVParty Day 3 - First Lines (Pt. 2!)

"Silver did not have a birthday, but he knew he was about ten years old. He knew this because that was how long his mother had been turned into a holly tree, by her latest counting."

#DVParty Day 3 - First Lines

"The Ochre Fortress was meant to be a place of peace, not a place for peace talks."

The Warden doesn't remember anything from before The Event. All she knows is that thousands of humans died of god-sickness when the Ochre God's corpse was disturbed... but SHE came back. Now immune to his Decay, she serves as guardian to demigods on their journey. 🖤 POV for scenes w/o kids #DVparty

Is it this one? If you've never seen it before, Ruth Sanderson's adaptation is sooo pretty. 🥰 I scanned my copy to sample for my moodboards!

All Gold has ever known is the Ochre Fortress, and she can't leave it, or else she'll spread the mutagenic Decay that radiates from her body, her touch turning organic matter into the metal of her name. But Silver, a boy she meets in her dreams, makes her "shine" go away... 💛 2nd of 3 POV! #DVparty

Silver doesn't have a birthday because his mom was turned into a tree before he was born. He grows up inside of her trunk, his consciousness on the Green Plane, until he begins sharing dreams with a girl named Gold in the Outside World, and leaves home to find her. 🤍 1st of 3 POV Characters #dvparty
