The concept now developed into the album containing three parts - Linion lore introduction, Bite's personal stuff and the sum up of [[Tinion Steamdust|Tinion]] & others’ stories. “[[LETTING GO 101]]” was out of the picture, so a new ending song for Bite’s section was needed. There was once a draft for a song titled “My Name Is Bite” that was supposed to cap off the album, but it was unfortunately lost when Bite’s phone suffered severe corrosion after bringing it into the shower. Finding himself unable to make anything from scratch, Bite created a demo for an ending song titled “[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y1OIiEA1154&pp=ygUaaSBzdWNrIGF0IGVuZGluZ3MgYml0ZWlzbWU%3D I SUCK AT ENDINGS]” based on the “[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2EXOtsLbBDI&pp=ygUYdGltZSB0byBtb3ZlIG9uIGJpdGVpc21l TIME TO MOVE ON]” .flp file. The instrumental felt too happy and derivative for Bite though, so he immediately scrapped it. After a week of contemplating what to do, Bite started messing with the file again, and ended up with a grimmer instrumental, which he developed into “IMPRESSION”.

Despite the whole sentiment of "IMPRESSION" being Bite finally moving on, he went ahead and continued to obsessively look through his private messages with others who cut contact with him. Through that he reached a certain point in 2020 when a friend of his showed him Melobytes, a prototype AI music generator mostly reliant on midi. A few tracks made through converting images to audio were sent between the two, which Bite thought sounded cool. He previously sampled similar files for [[Tinion Steamdust's Encore|Encore]], but now after being re-introduced to the tool used to make them, he went ahead and created a whole new instrumental that he would then use for "[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_waRSt-E2fw&list=PLzno6bLKVozz_OK6jAQLppEKDDsbZ_oMM&index=16&pp=gAQBiAQB8AUB abandoned mural]".

The sound collage "i looked into the abyss and saw myself", stemming from the sound list [[Tinion Steamdust]] had in [[TPRR: Bite's Extension|Bite's Extension]] contained samples from Melobytes too.

Having wanted to do a live event for some time now, Bite decided to fake one. He intentionally staged and edited [https://youtu.be/4vQeRxtQVVQ?si=CCom7-0vnY4HTM-k 15 minutes worth of a fictional live show]. He began with laying down the instrumentals with extra reverb, layered vocals for some four hours to create the crowd, then performed the whole show in one take, in the middle of which his dad walked in. The 'live event' featured many of [[Tinion Steamdust]]'s 'lovable hits' from the previous albums so far. This will be important later, so keep this track in mind.

It began with a free form idea and [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pTYuGFOOTGI&list=PLzno6bLKVozydnhsfjCc3Wsz83sRy7NbC&index=7&pp=gAQBiAQB8AUB short instrumental demo] developed with SpringCola. The song was going to be a complete joke and oriented around many different switches throughout, beginning with groovy glitch-hop shenanigans and ending in a horrifying sound collage. Two demos later, [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pTYuGFOOTGI&list=PLzno6bLKVozydnhsfjCc3Wsz83sRy7NbC&index=7&pp=gAQBiAQB8AUB SpringCola's version] was given up on as the track went into hiatus, with Bite hoping to acquire more skills by the time he's ready to develop it again. There was one instrumental (Ending of Jinnerman Pt.2) but it didn't seem grand or complete enough to be the whole song. More needed to be made. Nearly half a year later, now that practically nothing else was left to complete, he went ahead and tried again.

What came out was [https://youtube.com/shorts/tgg1CmuviDo a loop of a pipe organ with trap drums on top]. So he tried again, and only managed to come through with a percussion line. Two days later, thinking it's time to revert to [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pTYuGFOOTGI&list=PLzno6bLKVozydnhsfjCc3Wsz83sRy7NbC&index=7&pp=gAQBiAQB8AUB that old demo], Bite attempted it one last time. He laid down the bass guitar line in the beginning, and from that point onwards, the entire song came together in two hours.

He laid down the bass guitar line in the beginning, and from that point onwards, the entire song came together in less than two hours total spanning over two days, as seen on [https://www.youtube.com/live/gaZLzPSzVlQ?si=37AZfMC9qGxKu33j this first stream] and [https://www.youtube.com/live/hfRcLvEHSgU?si=DcHcDsDUw7R7hTOU this second one].

With few days left to the release on the album, only minor revisions were done, such as the pre-chorus on "IMPRESSION", or the revised "Cloak and Dagger" vocals. While going over the album, Bite found "ADAM TYPE DISSTRACK" cringy and distasteful with the constant name-dropping and mentions of private information regarding the recipient (something he'd go on to do to someone else regardless). During a visit in HG on an alternative account, Bite noticed TheMadCowboy in a voice chat and decided to join, saying cryptic stuff with a voice changer. The latter saw behind his intentions and told him to quit messing with him, to which Bite responded with a short, honest apology. Following that interaction, Bite was fully convinced it's time to scrap the track, putting "REPLACEMENT" in its place. By that point, Bite began to see past the emotions he displayed throughout the album, and making "REPLACEMENT" did feel quite inauthentic, yet he rolled with it anyways.

Remember the [https://youtu.be/4vQeRxtQVVQ?si=CCom7-0vnY4HTM-k Tinion Steamdust Concert]? When Bite was going to upload the album to streaming services, he made the realization the entire thing is littered with copyrighted instrumentals from Rockstar Games, Skrillex, dv4d, Bring Me The Horizon and some more. Having just met Sogmeister, he turned to him for a solution, and the two wrote "Life as a Jinion."
