Description
Stockholm Syndrome- A state of mind that affects a person who is kidnapped, held against their will, or in a hostage situation for an extended period of time. Being allowed to live after the initial shock of a kidnapping/hostage situation/etc the victim may feel an intense sense of gratitude and often uses this as a reason to believe their captor is a good person. Their captor uses continued fear and abuse to brainwash the victim into believing any family or friends they have are not looking for them or do not care about them causing the victim to transfer those bonds of trust and affection from their family and friends to their captor out of desperation. As a result, those with Stockholm Syndrome may not think clearly when given chances of escape or retaliation against their captors and will often remain with them willingly until helped by an outside force.Well, in a nut shell. This is totally in my own words because I’m too lazy to look on the internet for a more in-depth description of it. >_> But it is accurate!
I think I hate women. I find myself loving the pictures I draw like this more than any others. Putting my females (or I guess, feminized in this case?) in compromising situations is pretty much the most fun I can have in writing or roleplaying. It’s a little disturbing. Maybe it’s more because I’m terrified of finding myself in a situation like this. Being raped, kidnapped, held against my will, in general losing control over myself in some way, whether physically or mentally, is pretty much among my top 3 ultimate fears. (Dying of a debilitating illness and death via a natural disaster/space debris are the other two.) So I use art, and the placing of characters in horrible situations to confront these fears. Or something. STUPID PSYCHOLOGY, EFF YOU.
So, this is pretty much the best piece I’ve drawn to date, as far as I’m concerned. Everything came out completely as I wanted, the look on El’s face, the body language, GRR ALL OF IT. The background is made of laze but I can live with that because it’s still pretty cool looking. xD If it’s too dark, let me know and I’ll get a lighter version mocked up for you guys.
Elanor made a big mistake coming on Cadaver’s land, and then out of her intense terror of the general situation she was in (outnumbered and pretty much as the mercy of Cadaver) she offered to help him gain weapons parts from her job in exchange for her life. Of course, that’s a pretty damn good offer, win-win for Cadaver because now he’s got complete control over El. He’s basically made her a member of his gang and she’s forbidden to leave, save for her job, she’s become his captive and in a way willingly. She now basically lives her worst fear every day, unable to decide for herself anything about her life. Yet despite all this over time with the continued isolation and only having meaningful interactions with Cadaver she’s slowly fallen prey to Stockholm Syndrome. Even though he sometimes gives her a smack if she’s out of line as far as she’s aware from experience he’s the closest thing she’s had to friend.
Which leads us to this picture. She’s terrified of him but can’t help but love him at the same time, he’s all she has. So if, at a later date, he ever made a pass at her she may deep down resist and not want it but externally would feel like she couldn’t rightfully say no. You can see the conflict on her face, I hope. Cadaver’s face confuses me… I think that it’s supposed to though. I’m sure he doesn’t hate her but he also doesn’t truly love her, it’s more like this is motivated by simple physical attraction and as a result he also has a mix of emotions that I’m having trouble explaining... BUT I GUESS, if I succeeded, I don’t need to explain it to ya’ll. It should be unspoken!
More and more I find myself thinking that El in the personification of my inner fear, she acts like I think I might if I was her. It’s starting to scare me. WHICH ONE OF US IT REAL?? Am I really the creator or does she really exist in some way?!
I.
DON’T.
KNOW.

Total and complete WIN.
A lot because...opposite of you...I have an odd little obsession with being kidnapped and having my will taken from me. o.0 I have kidnap dreams like every night. Thus, I find this incredibly hot. Ha. I'm a sick cookie too. xD
BUT, gorgeous work. The emotion is absolutely amazing!

WHY THANK YOU.
I do recall you saying something about that at some time! That is, indeed, quite strange thar deary. xDD I'm generally a paranoid person AND having been taught all through childhood to be a strong willed person and stand firm when it came to my indivuduality I guess my fears sort of protray the opposite of that. THANKS A LOT DAD.
His favorite movie is The Matrix, nuff said. xDD

I was taught the same thing. I think (though I'm far from certain) it was my sheltered background that brought about the odd tendencies in my own mind and desires and such. I think all it's gonna boil down to is a love of being pinned to stuffs by my future lover and being surprised by him. xD
...I still need to see The Matrix. I KNOW, I KNOW, horrible person for not seeing it. I know I must. xD

See yours is still based in love, so that's the difference. I'm scared of just getting some cracked up pervert carting me away as I walk to class or something. xDD WHICH WOULD BE BAD.
Well I believe I've only seen the first and second one. Still need to see numbah 3. Will have to do that when I get home. Honestly for me it wasn't anything special. I mean, it was good, but it wasn't OMFGEPICWINJFLDJFDSL like it was for my dad. loool

True, true. And being randomly kidnapped would be horrid.
It's like a cultural phenomenon, so I'd better see it at some point. xD

THIS IS AMAZING TIMES A MILLION.
I'm also loving the symbolism of her being backed up against the wall while all this free space is behind him.
Also great write-up, the story behind this sounds like something I wanna watch/read right now -- make movie plz; also agree about interests in Stockholm Syndrome, it's one of the most exciting things to write/RP/whatever about.
I'M MORE VERBOSE IN PERSON; VERY VERY VERBOSE.

AW YEAH I'M ALL ABOUT DUH SYBOMIZIM, GEEERL. 8D
If I had the skillz/patience I would make all my rps into movies, because here is so much pwnage in some of them. But it's not meant to beee.
Stockholm Syndrome is probably one of the worst things I can imagine happening to me, yet I find myself using it a lot. grrr Strange the way our minds work. D:
PFF THAT IS JUST FINE, get me on the right topic and I totally am too. xD
