Okay sorry to triple post ISAT in one night but I've been possessed by the meme demons

I'll unalive you

your scent processing being so close to memory in your brain is insane sometimes you step outside and take a whiff and go "ah, it smells like playing pokemon emerald in my third grade afterschool program in the crisp september of 2006"

leitmotifs never get old to me like holy shit dude there’s this melody that corresponds to this one guy and if you hear the melody it means the guy is there. holy shit. and sometimes it refers to ideas too not just guys. has anyone heard about this

can someone recommend some beginner normal behaviors for someone looking to become normal

A Brief Rundown of the IRL Ithaca Saga (to the best of my memory, in probably not chronological order)

jorge (creator, odysseus) decided it'll be cool to celebrate the ithaca saga with the epic cast via a trip to ithaca, greece

surely nothing can go wrong

mico (telemachus) seemingly found out about the trip with the rest of the fandom. he proceeded to plot a trip to ithaca

the epic cast dealt with multiple broken vans and missed a ferry by one minute. they had to cancel a stream because they were too exhausted

mico made it onto a plane

ithaca got hit by a typhoon, forcing them to move another stream indoors

mico got banned from tiktok. it was reversed

mason (tireseas) asked luke (zeus) to stop the rain. luke refused

the crew hiked up to odysseus' palace. they ran into a roadblock. mason looked into the future and did not see a way around it. (they found a way around it)

the crew found a well and sang their epic songs into it. except jp (crew) who just sang happy birthday

janani (aphrodite) also sang "royal we" into the well

anna (penelope) made it onto the plane to fly out to ithaca

hermes (troy) decided to take a plane to ithaca like a normal human instead of teleporting. he got side-eyed by a woman at the airport as he slept sprawled out in a chair. this quickly became a meme

hermes arrived in ithaca to the delight of everyone except jorge. mico also appeared in his videos. mico still had not updated anything after getting on the plane

anna's connecting flight got cancelled, leaving her stranded in a fancy hotel. she struggled to find the toilet in her hotel room

mico finally updated, claiming he was stuck in munich. mason appears in the video and gives him a water bottle, proving he is lying

the fandom believes mico anyway

mico is forced to post another video revealing he had been gaslighting us basically the entire time and was just delayed in getting to ithaca, that was all

troy and talya (circe), in character, talk about tea. troy says the tea tastes like her father's approval. earle (ares) then asks for 1000 cups and breaks down crying as luke cuts the camera

jorge posts a video apologizing for mico's absence, encouraging him to fly to ithaca, new york. mico appears in the background of this video

mico posts a video saying that he's finally in ithaca, but the crew is in ithaca, new york. jorge appears in the background of this video

jp films a behind the scenes video, calling out "some random guy" who just showed up asking if anyone knows jorge. it's mico

janani sings "royal we" again, but after she says "troy was breached" troy comes out screaming in pain. mico appears in the background of this, filming the video from two points above

it's time for the ithaca saga livestream... except it gets cancelled because the connection is bad and jorge's devices are dying

TL;DR: the gods saw the epic crew in ithaca and went "do you guys think it'll be really funny if we just. recreated the odyssey"

imagine being the friend whose default response to observing unusual behavior is to come up with nearly-fantastical conspiracy theories, and then one day you successfully figure out that one of your pals is in a timeloop. i’d be riding that high for— well. for about twenty seconds in this case

I recently started an astronomy class and I am so incredibly brainrotted by In Stars And Time it got me thinking about the Island North of Vaugarde. Specifically in regard to constellations and location. This’ll probably be long so more under the cut (and also most likely spoilers).

Okay so astronomers recognize 88 constellations, which are actually areas in the sky, not the star formations (which are asterisms, and can help to signify where constellations are, but do not specifically define them. [As far as I can tell. I’ve only been to three classes so far.] Think the Big Dipper, which is relatively easy to locate and is part of the larger formation of Ursa Major, which is in the constellation of the same name. The Big Dipper is not an actual constellation. But I could also be totally wrong about the specific definitions because as I have said I’ve only been to three classes. Please take what I am saying in this aside with a grain of salt. It’s super interesting imo so doing your own research would probably be fun if you’re into that.).

So connecting that to INOV, I’m thinking they could have… provinces perhaps? Corresponding to the constellations. Though I doubt they would call them “provinces”. And maybe they wouldn’t have all of the constellations, since on the rough map for ISAT it seems like a comparatively small country, but there aren’t really scales to tell. So maybe the names could correspond to the Zodiac or whichever constellations are visible year round. I’m in the northern hemisphere so I’m not familiar with which constellations are always visible from the southern hemisphere.

Additionally, in the headcanon/worldbuilding(?) I’m apparently piecing together here, I think the main city of each province could be named after the brightest or main star of the constellation the area is named for.

(Also I kind of want Siffrin to have been from the Gemini region of the island because. Yknow. Castor and Pollux. The twins. Teehee. [Whole other can of worms here but I think Pollux could be a viable post-loop Loop-travels-with-the-party-and-chooses-a-name-not-directly-related-to-one-of-the-worst-things-to-ever-happen-to-them name because like. Loop -> Loo -> Lu -> Lux -> Pollux. Anyway])

This system could also contribute to how no one remembers any constellations, since although the stars are explicitly incredibly important to the Universe belief and the Island overall, I feel like some other country in the world would have also been researching astronomy mostly independent from the Island, or at the very least in a language they can still read so they’re not starting from nothing. But if the constellations are directly tied to the way INOV is set up and run, it makes a lot of sense to me that they would be completely erased from peoples’ minds because of the Island disappearing.

I’m also thinking that maybe positions of power or leadership on the Island were named after planets because it seemed like everyone was completely unaware of those, but at this point I’m getting into stuff I haven’t fully though out (as opposed to the stuff I’ve been spinning in my head for a grand total of two hours but whatever. I’m being a bit pedantic here).

Anyways if I ever write anything for ISAT this will probably be existing in the background of it as a bit of personal worldbuilding, so I wanted to have it exist somewhere outside of my brain lol

I have a folder called Time is a Flat Circle in which I collect evidence of humanity. Here is most of them.

i hate viruses so fucking much. literally getting attacked by a fucking shape. a concept. consumes no energy. responds to no stimuli. its only existence is to fuck with you. like fuck offf

Everybody stop what you’re doing RIGHT NOW and celebrate the last Out of Touch Thursday of 2020

i...love subversion. and in stars and time does it so well...

"the chosen one" wasn't actually chosen by fate, but by circumstance, and is terrified that shes a fraud

big strong dumb guy isnt actually stupid, and kind of hates that people think he is

callous older character is actually incredibly caring in her own, slightly abrasive way, and proves she keeps an eye out for everyone

edgy loner rogue is actually very tired of being alone and craves connection to a dangerous degree

the naive young child isnt actually naive at all, they understand the danger they are in, and they understand the danger the others are in because of them

the guide themselves is lost and just as scared and the protagonist.
