ok random headcanon but I was thinking like the protagonists spend crazy amounts of time on roofs right? so what's their favorite view

I’d say Corvo’s has got to be the palace or something. anyway I figured corvo's fav view would be on top of the like imperial palace bc it reminds him of sneaking up there to watch the stars with jess. Or Karnaca city line. In Karnaca, Corvo's favorite view would be the view over the city from the side of the cliff, when you arrive to the Dust District. Because it's beautiful, and it's home.

Daud’s would beeee I’m thinking flooded district but idk. Maybe on top of the dreadful whale in his later years? maybe it was the view from his home in serkonos, back before his life went to shit. i have a hc that he likes 2 watch the stars and stuff, bc its calming nd nostalgix, nd the stars are the same in dubwall and serkonos,,,

I'm a bit biaised because it's one of my fav views of the game but Daud and/or Corvo like to climb on Kaldwin's bridge to watch the sunset. I'm thinking Daud first because it's near-inaccessible without powers, and he can sit here, alone, in the calm, above everything else, just. Taking a breather. He's been going there since he got marked and come back there every once in a while. Corvo finds the same view when going to fetch Sokolov in DH1, and starts going there regularly afterwards, never knowing that it used to be one of Daud's favorite spots.

I feel like billie's fav view isnt even on a roof, it's a party during the fugue feast bc she and the whalers if they weren't doing contracts would just go out and have fun

I think Emily’s would be the one with two favourites. One in dunwall to remember her childhood and the other in Karnaca cause she always wanted to explore

I think Delilah (even though she like. Sucks) would be the conservatory. Cause I feel that’s where the witches hang out when it’s not the mansion (also biased cause I like the conservatory)

psst the outsiders favorite view is when he becomes human again and truly sees the sun and the sky for the first time in thousands of year. he just stands motionless on like the dreadful whale until Billie yells at him cause it’s breakfast/dinner or that he needs to go to bed
