i cooked

I finished the Quirrel ita bag insert and layout!

My back hurts from being hunched over trying to put the keychains in with my pesky safety pins, but it's worth it!

I now need to get small pins as filler, perhaps some jellyfish that match the colour scheme?

The artists of the merch can be found under the following posts: [click], [click], and [click]. The plush is official merch sold by Fangamer

I now leave you off with some music! Decisive Battle for Quirrel :)

I love this bug so much y'all, and now I can show it to the world more than just my Quirrel shirt :D

I've barely finished the game one way and still know basically nothing about the lore, but if I know anything then it's that I really like this guy. Quirrel is just a good vibe. Generally Hollow Knight is such a vibe I love that game-

[Start ID. A brown-toned comic of P3RI, the artist's botsona. They lament on how long it's been since they've played Dishonored, start playing it again, and then lie to itself that it'll keep this playthrough casual. The bottom quarter of the image lists the self-imposed challenges they rack up. End ID]

back at it again folks

#one year ago today #this happens every time. help #last time I played Dishonored (first days of nov) i did a no-kills no-detects no-powers run and set the difficulty to hard 1/3 through...#last time I played Hollow Knight (probably a bit before that) i decided not to sit on any benches (aborted when i got to the CoT #because I saw Quirrel and forgot in the heat of excitement...) while also making it a speedrun. run before that was also a speedrun #only ever finished HK on one save though. i don't think i even got to the dreamers on any others #meanwhile i've beaten dishonored like 8 times minimum. it's my comfort game and i get sad if i haven't played it in a while #peridots-art #peridots-nonsense #bots #P3RI #dishonored #oh... photos gave me a notification for and on feb 20 22 i was sad about the low chaos bunkhouse scene...

🎃REPOSTOBER No. 7

In 2021 I livestreamed a playthrough of Hollow Knight for my Discord and caught quite a few feels for various moments in the game. The quiet scene where you rest next to Quirrel on the bench with the rainfall and his contemplative words was definitely one of my favorite.

Quirrel! Anything quirrel please! He is such a blorbo :>

Hi! First of all I’m so sorry for taking so long to answer!

I really love Quirrel, he’s such an amazing character! Honestly sometimes I just like to sit with him on the bench and don't go anywhere for at least a few minutes, as if he will stay longer in this world :'333

The word “blorbo” just made me draw some of his silly poses because it just sounds so cute :3 Also it was a perfect opportunity to practice how to draw him!) But I hope you’re not disappointed with this drawing, I always want to give my all and have fun while drawing, but maybe you wanted an art with one character, like a full illustration or something, and I promise to keep it in mind to draw one in the future! 🌟

I thank you so much for this ask, it’s my first time answering or making art for somebody so I’m really nervous. But I’m just so glad that Quirrel was the one that I needed to draw, he’s just too perfect for this world I swear! ❤️

When I saw Quirrel sitting on the bench at the City of Tears, it was the first time I felt at peace in this game. That I know how nothing will attack me from behind. That I knew I could remove my hands from the mouse and keyboard and could relax to the sound and rain. I felt this place to such an extent that I almost cried. A moment where you could relax from all the previous hard work you did. Remembering all the time you died and telling yourself that it’s okay, it will continue to happen, but there’s a reward at the end.

Foreshadowing

haha get it he probably died so his final resting place is the resting grou-

The foreshadowing throughout Quirrel's dialogue is so perfectly done that I just have to talk about it. (Below the cut. This is a long one.)

As seen in the above image and below quote, an instance of such foreshadowing.

"The city looks to be built into an enormous cavern, and the rain pours down from cracks in the stone above.

There must be a lot of water up there somewhere. I suppose, if the cave roof stayed strong this long, it should hold for us.

Before I leave this Kingdom, I'd like to see where all that water comes from. What a sight it must be!"

As we know, the rain comes from Blue Lake. And I must agree, what a sight it is!

Circled location is Quirrel

It is also proved by a quote I obtained [here], where Ari Gibson himself states:

"The only area that I can think of that exists purely for narrative reasons is the Blue Lake, which is above the raining city. And it's only there because there's all this rain falling on the city, and I just couldn't bear the idea that we didn't explain where this rain was coming from. So we put this big lake above it."

Quirrel's final location he is seen at is Blue Lake, without Monomon's mask atop his head, sat down on the ground and gazing out over the gorgeous lake.

The final location before his implied death, his second and final departure of hallownest, fulfilling his wish to see the source of the rain before he leaves.

"To persevere in this ruin, that old nail alone just won't be enough. Though that's no problem! One only has to look around.

Plenty have come before us and most have met their grisly end, many more equipped than you and I.

I'm sure they wouldn't mind were a fellow explorer to relieve them of their tools. It's a kindness really. The dead shouldn't be burdened with such things."

Quirrel's death (although uncertain if he truly died as stated by one of the devs themselves, saying "we don't know," but that is a topic for another time), or rather, his nail in the ground, is foreshadowed by the above dialogue.

Quirrel believes that a weapon is a burden to oneself when dead, encouraging the Knight to pick up a stronger weapon they may find.

Upon the re-entry of Blue Lake after the Knight has spoken to Quirrel, they will discover that he seems to have left the area, the remaining evidence of his existence there being his nail, which looks intentionally stuck into the ground, tempting one to grab it and use it to its fullest potential. After all, Quirrel would not want to be burdened by his own weapon much like past explorers have been. Whether he drowned himself, withered away of old age, or had been killed by enemies, it must have been intentional due to his nail's placement.

Free from the burdens of his weapon. Of surviving. Of life. He had lived life to the fullest and had seen all that the world has offered him, his mind freed from the awful events in between.

"All tragedy erased. I see only wonders..."

That is not the end, by the way. Although it is the perfect quote to end on, I still have the random tidbits of info he remembers to cover.

"What is this feeling?... So familiar. Drawn forward yet repelled.

And those shapes upon the door...To gaze directly at them turns my mind to fog."

"That lake... a revered presence once slept deep within...

Did it? What would make me think such things?"

"There is a city nearby, the old capital of Hallownest. I've heard a Nailsmith resides there. Seek the old bug out and you may find progress that much easier."

"...Who was it that told me of the Nailsmith? I can't even remember, yet I can almost picture the smith himself..."

For someone who is exploring Hallownest along a similar path to your own journey, he seems to know some pieces of knowledge in regards to the kingdom, whether he tells the Knight of the nailsmith, or the thought of Unn being locked within his mind.

The Knight later discovers that Quirrel has been in Hallownest before, although his memory of the place is mostly blank.

"Did she call you too then? I realise it's no coincidence we arrive together.

Though much of my memory is blank, this place I recall."

Quirrel had taken part in the Teacher's sacrifice to become a seal upon the Black Egg Temple, although he cannot recall the event, thus showing he has lived in Hallownest once, but remembers nothing but small fragments of information, the tragedy of the infection blocked from his memory upon departure.

"Twice I've seen this world and though my service may have stripped the first experience from me, I'm thankful I could witness its beauty again."

ok NOW I will end with the line.

"To live an age, yet remember so little... Perhaps I should be thankful?

All tragedy erased. I see only wonders..."

Ah, foreshadowing. A beautiful thing.

The Quirrel and ghost friendship is so so just everything to me!! I have so many feelings about Quirrel and specifically his relationship with little Ghost!

I don't know exactly how to express it, but like, the fact that That Quirrel is so completely loved by Ghost, in a way he does not understand. He doesn't understand how loved he is and how important he is to this little fellow wanderer.

To Quirrel, up until the end of the game, Ghost is just this little guy he runs into now and then. There have probably been countless bugs like this throughout his life. Travellers he'll occasionally come across. He probably genuinely cared for them all, Quirrel is curious and very friendly, and he definitely likes little Ghost, But it isn't much more than that. However to Ghost, who is so young, has no past, no family, no friends, and little to no experience in the world, Quirrel is comfort in a land where almost everyone wants to harm you, he is safety, he is peace, he is optimism. He is an advisor, an example, a helping hand, a kindred spirit, and not just a friend, a very best friend.

He is more important to Ghost than he will ever know. It literally cannot be expressed. And something about that is so sad to me!! Ghost can only stop to listen. Sit at his side, on the bench in the city, the springs of Deepnest, by the Blue lake. All of these are some of the very best moments in this little bugs entire life.

And Quirrel DOES NOT KNOW!!!

#hollow knight #Hk Quirrel #Hk ghost #hk little ghost #hk the knight #Look I cannot articulate #My feelings about this relationship very well #But Quirrel is everything to that little bug #And I just #aaaaaaaaaAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

Today!! I played Hollow Knight again for the first time in a long while. I wasn't expecting to get all the way to the City of Tears in one sitting, but alas, that's where we are! I got so excited when I saw Quirrel sitting on one of the benches there. SO!! I had to draw these two!! <333 They are so cute!!

I'm playing Hollow Knight for the first time (7 years too late i know) and it really is amazing how fast the game makes you utterly endeared to Quirrel. Maybe its just because he's a reoccuring character who doesnt try to kill you but the way my day was instantly improved whenever he appeard round the map, just sitting on a bench - chilling. Found him resting in the spring in deepnest and sat there with him for several minutes so I could just enjoy the fact that Quirrel was here. The way I cheered out loud when he showed up to help in the archieve fight. Im sorry i had to kill his tutor/boss/mother figure(?) Hope he's not mad about it

#ive killed all the dreamers and im sure nothing bads going to happen if i take a stroll down to the black egg place #very much looking forwards to being killed another 800 times #hollow knight #hollow knight spoilers #if people are still worried about that
