make assumptions abt The Bitter Drop’s protagonists

(saw this on Twitter, thought it looked fun and better suited to somewhere w/out a character limit! art by Jacob Herschler — was originally meant to be character sprites for a VN)

oh right, these people have names allegedly

left to right:

Mogila Borisovna Balshemnik, has not appeared in person thus far (will be turning up in ch002 or ch003!)
Lev/Lyubov Venyaminovitsh/na Morgenshtern, narrator
Anzu Tamiratovitsh Menelikov, turns up in ch000sc04 and will not leave

"turns up in literally the fourth scene of chapter zero; will not leave" is the funniest description of Menelikov' role in this story I could imagine

my assumption about the one on the left is that they definitely like books much more than they like people!

Isidore Bloom @ligaratus10/29/2022, 4:23 PM

while Mogila would try to dispute that, ironically enough she's heavily associated w/ books and libraries in the story so it is the kind of assumption she invites and is therefore Correct in spirit ^.^

gonna read the bitter drop next time i want something to read, but for now i know nothing about these characters except for these pictures, so

mogila - kills it at karaoke, fun improvisation and spectacular low notes (but NO body movement)

lev - knows how to draft patterns but can't hand sew

anzu - gives the relationship advice "dump them" every time

i’m impressed by how accurate your vibes read is but for reasons i cannot only comment that yes, Lev has pretty bad arthritis in pretty much all distal small joints.
