Roommates (Webcomic)	comment	Welcome to the Buildingverse! This article is about the Weekly Web Comic (normally updated on Mondays) that started all in 2007: Roommates by AsheRhyder and the fans on DeviantArt. (Can be found here. And there are some "official" collected editions: Collection 1, Such Stuff As Dreams Are Made On, Kings War Collector's Edition'')It's mainly about Goblin King Jareth, The Phantom Erik, (ex-)Commodore James Norrington and (ex-)Inspector Javert, who all live together in the same apartment building. Also along for the ride (occasionally) are Crowley, Aziraphale and Legolas and the romantic interests Christine and Sarah and many MANY more as they try to survive each other, life outside of their normal existence and general weirdness.This building, this town and possibly this whole world is a special place. Sure it looks quite normal on the surface (urban Present Day setting) but how sane can it be if Gandalf teaches science at the local university? All fiction exist as movies / books / etc. and as real places / past for the characters? And there isn't much of a fourth wall either...The comic has ended as of 2019.There are also Fan Translation projects for this comic: A Hungarian one titled "Lakótársak" (Has a mirror here) by Mali-chan (also known as Malitia). And a Spanish one titled "Compañeros De Casa" by Prinzessinumi.Also for a more intuitive explanation of the series you could check The 5th Anniversary Video by EveryDayArtist.If you were looking for the unrelated dating sim with the same name that's over here.

Roommates (Webcomic) / int_125a7a4e	comment	Dream Weaver: Seems to be pretty standard for the Fair Folk as both Jareth and the Erlkönig can do this with high proficiency, and even Jadis and "Odile" know enough to meddle. For a non-magical variant the Inception cast in general. And if we can take Saito's word Sarah's certain powers include this too, but she isn't trained or particularly conscious about it.

Roommates (Webcomic) / int_125c43a0	comment	Supernatural Elite: The magical people tend to organize themselves into more-or-less feudal courts where the leaders tend to be the most powerful of them. Also the courts' "Decadence", central themes and the connected Magical Land (if any) seem to be somehow connected to their rulers. It's said that magical Kings and Queens are exalted by blood. Which can mean two things: they inherit the title or they claim it by spilling the blood of their predecessor.

Roommates (Webcomic) / int_1270db02	type	Sorting Algorithm of Deadness
Roommates (Webcomic) / int_1270db02	comment	Sorting Algorithm of Deadness: To recap. This world runs mostly on the Theory of Narrative Causality (Story), and mostly the fans' Clap Your Hands If You Believe (belief) and generally has a Nobody Can Die rule The Fair Folk could still steal your soul, though. So you can be: "Alive": Even if the tale calls it differently. Which means you have both a narrative life and audience sympathy, by definition as long you have both you can't die. "Canonically Dead": So you died in your narrative you should be and are dead in it, but you also have enough fans to make you for all intents and purposes alive outside of it. Just know to avoid places which require your non-existence. Ashe playes with and lampshades this frequently ("Killed for canon" support group meetings; "Still Dead" checks; Confused undead etc.). "Canonically Dead In-Comic": If a liked OC who had a story dies (as this comic is their canon) they must go and try to find a place outside of it to live on. "Canonically Alive": You are alive in a story and pray for it to never end because the fans hate you. You also can't venture outside that narrative. This is the inverson of being "Canonically Dead" and is way worse for the character. "Deader than Dead": "Death by Origin Story": Your death is required for someone else's backstory characterization. Technically this is just being "Canonically Dead", but your options are so severely limited where you don't have a narrative compulsion to stay dead that you effectively are. See the Tear Jerker page "The fandom hates YOU": Yeah. What happens when you were just "Canonically Alive" and the story ends. Bye bye, you. This is as dead as it gets in this comic. invoked This is why Mrs. Norrington is a widow.

Roommates (Webcomic) / int_18a84025	comment	Only Six Faces: In the early pages Only Six Faces was pretty much the case, but it got subverted by Art Evolution later evolving into a Cast of Snowflakes (despite the general Pretty Boy tendencies)... at least in the case of the male cast members. The female ones on the other hand are still harder to distinguish (especially the ones with long, dark hair). Maybe a side effect of the rather strict definition of female beauty our culture has.

James seems to like mystery novels, for example the works of Agatha Christie. And this isn't even about the reeeeeeeeeeeally bibliophile characters like Azira or Darcy. The Erlkönig Hunts, plays Poker and also Chess (both the mundane and the Xanatos Speed variety).

This isn't even accounting for all the Dream Within A Dream Lands The Fair Folk can create from the inside or the possibility for things being Mutually Fictional. And don't let us get started on the word of Pika that it's possible to read the comic in the comic. Is there a true reality? Does the chain of fictionality ever end? We don't know. You reading this could be fictional in some other world/story too.

Not to mention the Mind Screw that the Medium Awareness of the series brings. So question: If your story "came out" in 1986 (you didn't exist before that), you were Really 700 Years Old in it and were played by a 39 years old actor then how old are you in 2012?

It's also revealed that this wasn't always the case, because magical rulers are Fisher Kings.

And is sort of weird as the magical community seems to be mostly equal opportunity with several women in leadership positions. May be slightly explained in that the role of Erlkönig translates in-universe to "goblin king", and is not a gender-neutral title—but then again, others have used the neutral "Goblin Monarch", and it's been explicitly said that Sarah has a claim on the kingdom, so it's probably more a matter of his daughter having no ambitions for the role and/or not being suited for it.

It is translated superbly but rather loosely (the Worm for example gives a reason for his "bad" directions "the movie would be over too quickly" which is funny, but takes away the ambiguity) and in an overly poetic manner (bordering on pretentious at places) that is... a matter of taste. The new one is pretty bog standard syndicated TV fare, not bad per see and at least more faithful, but it wasn't the passion project of anybody either..

Roommates (Webcomic) / int_c4bb17a1	comment	Pet-Peeve Trope: Inconsistent Dub. The inconsistencies in / between the Hungarian versions of the source material (because of retranslations / different ones according to medium / etc.) are Running Gags, Take Thats and Translator Filibusters (we could say she developed the Catchphrase "Compare/Keep notes, damn it!"). Examples: She calls Jareth "Koboldkirály" because she likes the alliteration of the new translation (and it's also easier to find) but lampshaded several times that she prefers the original theatrical dub where he was "Manókirály"note To add: Not as much as some fans (who for example treat the non rhyming version of the Monologue in the new dub as heresy) as even the old dub needs some pretty thick Nostalgia Goggles. It is translated superbly but rather loosely (the Worm for example gives a reason for his "bad" directions "the movie would be over too quickly" which is funny, but takes away the ambiguity) and in an overly poetic manner (bordering on pretentious at places) that is... a matter of taste. The new one is pretty bog standard syndicated TV fare, not bad per see and at least more faithful, but it wasn't the passion project of anybody either.. "Kicsit a Tesseractra emlékeztet." "Vagy Kozmikus kockának hívták azt a vackot?" (here) retranslated "It reminds me of the Tesseract." "Or was that damn thing called a Cosmic Cube?" (According to The Rant she didn't even dare to check the comics and she would translate it as "Hiperkocka" (Hypercube) if it wasn't a Shout-Out... and she is a "kocka"note (Literally "cube" but it also means geek or nerd in Hungarian) herself.)

As for it's rules: Seems like the rules of magic depend on the original story the magic user comes from. So the most widespread ideas probably work for most but each and every one of them will have his/her own quirks. Theoretically you can do anything with magic, but different things are easier or harder depending on: the users talents/inherited abilities (Jareth can heal, but it's not his forte at all), source of power (mostly Inherent Gift & willpower, but contract wizardry is probably also possible as Sarah's certain powers border on it.) and even what the story wants (if the effect fits in the narrative it will probably be easier to achieve with less side-effects... except if the tale decides that it needs more dramatic tension). So yes, in the end we get back to the fact that as anything else in this world magic also seems to run on Belief/Will and Story bound by the characters' Canon. There wasn't much interaction between the magic users till this point, but they would probably perceive each other's powers as Wrong Context Magic.

Roommates (Webcomic) / int_e294a0be	type	Our Souls Are Different
Roommates (Webcomic) / int_e294a0be	comment	Our Souls Are Different: If we extrapolate from James' "adventure": At least Humans/Mortals (even the fictional ones, like most of the cast) have souls that are stealable and probably also sellable. The souls taken take the form of the preferred spell representation of the being who claimed them. So natural crystal in the Erlkönig's hand but Crystal Ball in Jareth's. The rarer types (like "the soul of a good man") worth a lot in the eyes of magical beings interested in these type of bargains. Soulless bodies seem to enter coma or a death like state that is reversed if the missing soul is returned. But this may be only the case for the stolen ones like those tricked by Your Mind Makes It Real death. Looks like some memory about things that happened to/around the soul remain after awakening. (James knew that Jareth went to save his)

(with 3 pages/week) took 3 months to post but it chronicled the happenings of a single night. Between these the series seems to operate on Comicbook Time. The resulting anachronisms can almost always Hand Waved with: "Well, the characters are from their fictional times (80s, 1700s etc.) anyway."
