bells hells as iconic animation memes (with some explanations)
i've been thinking about this for so long and i'm gonna be real: said explanations are gonna be me mostly rambling about this stupid niche idea. rip 2017-2019 animation meme era you would've loved bells hells </3
dorian - fashion / posin'
fashion was actually the first one i thought of and the idea came to me when they were picking out clothes for the ball
and posin' just paints me a nice scenario where dorian aka our token noble helps the party with ball etiquette and mannerisms
the vibe of these two in general just scream dorian vibes
orym - soldier, poet, king / can't sleep love
this one was a bit easy, considering soldier, poet, king's already on his exu playlist
and for can't sleep love.. it may or not be known but i'm a dorym truther so i just think that orym misses a certain air genasi
also the image of that animation meme with a sending stone instead of a phone is really cool to me
imogen - panic room
i actually decided to make this post because panic room played on shuffle and my immediate thought was her
look at what she's going through and tell me it doesn't fit
"but these voices, these strange noises, they follow me in here" imogen would kin this song
laudna - baby hotline / body
i'm thinking about baby hotline more lyrically but i can totally see her and her story being featured in this one
while body's upbeat tune and not-so-upbeat lyrics just captures laudna's vibe
i think laudna would be hard to animate because of how already "animated" she is in nature but i think her unhingeness really suits these two
fcg - smile
'CAUSE ALL I REALLY NEED'S A SMILE SMILE SMILE FROM THESE HAPPY FRIENDS OF MINE
then the animation meme transitions from super happy to angst/gore
i really like where fcg's character is going and not to be that bitch who adds deep meaning in a post about bh as animation memes but i think the lore/change of personality we're getting really suits the agenda of this one
ashton - go hard / bye lena problems
ashton's had me sweating because i liked both of these and they're the reason why i'm allowing multiple animation memes for each character
back to explaining: go hard is a bop, it's about someone with not enough money to party but parties anyway, and the title is literally go hard (literally ashton)
and the vibe of bye lena problems fits ashton astronomically well
chetney - the wolf / the man
I WAS STRUGGLING A BIT WITH CHET BUT WHEN I REMEMBERED THE WOLF EXISTED I HAD A BREAKTHROUGH
basically the same reasoning that travis had when he made chetney's playlist: it has wolf in it so why the heck not
the man honestly came from the rta tattoo so that's one good thing that character design element gave me
fearne - wonderland / phut hon
i think that wonderland would really work well in showing fearne just being her chaotic self (also wonderland = the feywild)
i have no excuses for phut hon being here other than i think fearne would look good doing the dance PLEASE DON'T HURT ME I'M JUST A LESBIAN WHO THINKS FEARNE LOOKS REALLY NICE
bertrand - RPG
almost skipped bertie, glad i didn't because i think the concept of this is funny
that concept being bertrand showing off his newfound party to eshteross
and the confused/annoyed sounds at the end of the meme is them being angry at him for lounging around while they fight eshteross

It's SO funny that Travis made Bertrand to die in The Search for Grog, Matt legitimately tried very hard to kill him but failed through no fault of his own, Travis brought him back for Campaign 3, he and Matt designed to on-rails kill him and did so successfully... and now he's back as the example character for Daggerheart character creation. Sir Bertrand Bell is forever.

Bells Hells as Things My Friends Have Said
Chetney: Ripping people apart is how I stim.
Laudna: I deserve a joint and a forehead kiss!
FCG: I have affirmations I wrote for you to use. Or just jump to biting. I just work here, do as you see fit.
Fearne: I realized I wasn't stealing enough. And I needed to fix that.
Imogen: But I'm the one who gets creative. That's why people get exploded.
Orym: I devote myself to the queen and her boy-girlfriend.
Ashton: Why am I not the villain? I have the perfect personality AND the traumatic backstory to be one. I'm also very hot so it would just work out perfectly.
Bonus
Sir Bertrand: Hello, fellow kids. Would you like some smuggled beanie babies?
Dorian: God cursed me with social anxiety and a need not to be bothersome, all so I wouldn't be drowning in pussy.
Deana: Imma need 3 buisness weeks to process that I saw your abs.
FRIDA: What if the real gay rep was the friends we made along the way?
Prism: I'm not an "academic weapon". I'm the academic equivalent of WD-40 and duct tape.
✎Edit to add in new quotes for other honorary BH members:
Deni$e: You have to be careful with creative accounting, 'cause sometimes it qualifies as "illegal" or "tax evasion" or whatever else the man says to keep ya down.
Bor'Dor: I don't know the exact energy I give off, but it can't be good.
Yu: Gender is but a performance. And I'm an improv actor.

Love the theory that the people killed by the anti-revive poison are being sent to Ruidus, especially since it means there's a possibility that Bells Hells will travel there, find Sir Bertrand, and Travis will once again have to play him alongside his other character
