Careercow Narcissa Wright / Cosmo Wright - Former speedrunner tumbling down

[Video Games]

An additional layer of inspiration for this doll was The Picture of Dorian Gray by Oscar Wilde in which the main character Dorian, a libertine narcissist, sacrifices their soul (its corruption depicted in a painting) for everlasting beauty and hedonism.

I wonder if referring to Dorian Gray, arguably the foundational homosexual man in literature, as a "they" was a simple typo or an active choice to avoid gendering Gray. These days, I can never tell.

I remember when "they" was a word you could use to describe a third person action without it being immediately assumed to be some kind of trans-related thing.

That doll is so horrific looking that I thought the doll maker made it as a joke at Cosmo's expense.

 

[Gazed too deep]

Well that's going right in my nightmares. I think the most uncanny part of it is how completely it captures every bit of Narc's unsettling appearance. The face, the hair, the gangly limbs, the flesh that looks pale but not in the way a doll's normally might. This is clearly a product of a talented and possibly disturbed creator. Chris-chan doll when?

 

[Rei is shit]

In Greek mythology, the proud Narcissus is so absorbed by his reflection that he refuses to leave it until death. The irony of the narcissist lies in their ultimate sacrifice of self — the sacrifice of their potential to grow in favor for a static, absorptive pleasure.

Go ahead and rate me autistic but how this legend is skewed in popular culture really annoys me.

Ovids version of the tale, which is the only version anyone has cared about since pax romana, isn't about some self absorbed dude who falls in love with himself.

Its about a giga chad who has women falling over themselves to marry him every where he goes. But Narcissus is a volcel who would rather prance through the forest and do nymph stuff than mess around with pussy. One day he hears a really beautfiul voice in a bush. He becomes spellbound but when the source of the voice, echo, steps into the light and he sees her face he has second thoughts and goes on his way. Echo is so pissed off by this that she prays for a curse to befall Narcissus - the first person he falls in love with will be incapable of loving him back. And so he sees his own reflection while getting a drink and falls in love so hard that he cant stop staring at himself until he either dies or commits sodoku.

Sounds simple? Well there is a bit more to it. When Narcissus was born his mother took him to a blind seer (who was a woman for 7 years because of a curse lmao). She asked this prophet if her son would live a long time and he replied "if your son never knows himself he will live to old age". So who exactly could fall in love with their own reflection? Someone who was intentionally kept from discovering himself, stuck in basically a state of perpetually toddlerhood by his mother since going through those normal youthful rights of passage would have lead to him figuring out who he was, and then like the seerer implied he wouldn't live long.

So arrested was his development that he didn't even realize it was himself staring back at him in the pool. And this is also why he turned down all those women even the super hot princesses with tons of gold. You can't fall in love with someone else unless you know a bit about yourself, what you want and what you are looking for and who really compliments you.


It has nothing to do with someone who was full of themselves, its someone who didnt know a thing about himself.

This is why they say a symmetrical face is what's important. She's not ugly, persay, but every feature is a little off center, I dunno if it's because of the angle, but seriously... Yikes!

Your dissonance is due to the fact that that thing doesn't have front teeth thru which you could kick a field goal.

 

[AlmightyMagichan]

There's something about those yellow ribbons on the joints that's really bothering me. It's making me think of a horrifying scenario where people like Cosmo can get their limbs amputated and replaced by ones from a dead woman. But they can't be properly attached to the body so they just sit there, never being able to move the arms or legs. The rest of their body that can't be removed is covered with a new layer of skin, hench the breasts being like a bra. The only area of his original body that we can see is the mid-stomach section. It's like some kind of horrible evolution of Buffalo Bill.

The modern version of the Narcissus story is infinitely more horrifying than anything the ancients could have come up with.

Narcissa is such a beautiful girl. Every time I see her my heart melts like the first time ??

I think what you're actually experiencing is a heart attack from the sheer terror that overcomes you when you gaze in that zombie's direction.

 

[LugubriousLament]

I question something; calling transgenderism or transsexualism itself a mental illness may be incorrect, but it is a mental condition that can be treated. This being said, being trans in any capacity shouldn't turn you into a zombie at any stage. The question here is which came first. Could the transgenderism come encapsulated within whatever illness they have that makes them catatonic?

After all, look at how well the feminine pads guy is doing these days with some actual help.

is "she" talking with you again?

 

[Bonnabelle The Blue]

is "she" talking with you again?

Yeah she was, but recently I cut ties with her. I wish I took up her invitation instead. It is very sad -- a tragic end to the Saga of Issac. I miss my digital dreamer... my future child.

Hush, belied, prim, certain. Off this little girl goes, again.

It isn't commonplace that one is formally invited to the castle. Squandered.

This is just what Cosmo's mental health needs. A pretty female doll maker to affirm his delusions that he too is a pretty female princess with an idealized doll version of himself. The idea that the doll looks a lot better than he, a real human, does will never even cross his mind. I'm surprised he hasn't gotten one of his orbiters to buy it for him.

Quick question: have you actually seen the doll?

 

[AlmightyMagichan]

Everybody wants to be a damn princess, and then every princess just wants to be a stupid normal person.

I bet if Cosmo was born a girl, then she would be spending her time shooting up testosterone and tweeting about her pecs.
