Derideal 16 - 20 WIP+BLOG
🕑 Added 2024-04-12 16:16:02 +0000 UTCThis entire part of Derideal, and specially this chapter was heavily inspired by this song:

"tell me, mother
after all I meant to you
Now I'm just a mere shadow.
tell me, why am I here?"
Isra Ramos music has been an important part of my stories ever since 2009 or so, when an album black jack was released, it packed some anime-inspired melodies, and lyrics that speak about character's feeling, it was perfect for me to imagine the wildest things.
and this song in particular got to me just when I needed it, this guy spent 10 years without making new songs, and just when I decided to finish derideal part 3 and needed the necessary inspiration to write the final episodes, 2 new singles were released. it's a good coincidence, and the fkn lyrics matched with the stuff I was just writing.
Song is about the myth of Medea's a woman that kill her sons. Song is the cry of her kids, questioning their death in the afterlife, how unfair it is and why it happened.

Orozco was supposed to be just a replacement for C.Wally in part 3, someone with more hatred inside for xenos than THE MAN. But as I was developing the tale, I realized it could be better, more complicated for her, and she became Laura's "original" mother when the Derideal remake was made.
Laura was always meant to be the first xeno to be put under Consortium conditioning, somethin ALL xenos after Derideal comes with.
