#[[ he's behaved till now around Ozzie ]]

[countlessrealities]

The first 5 Asks to send 💋 get a kiss || Rick: 1/5

@hclluvahctel sent: 💋 Ozzie and Rick?

Yet another night, yet another visit to Asmodeus' club. Rick would never admit it out loud, but it is becoming a habit. If asked, he'd say that he keeps going back because he can score free great drinks more often than not, as the owner's close acquaintance, but in truth there's a lot more than just that.

He likes the place, enjoys the shows, vibes with the general atmosphere. And, if he has to be fully honest, he loves the company.

The embodiment of Lust is hilarious, witty, delightful. He lets Rick say whatever shit passes through his mouth, no matter how bad, and not only he acknowledges it, but he also doesn't judge him. He has even laughed at some of the scientist's worst jokes ever.

Not to mention that he's hot. Rick has fucked his way across the multiverse and back but, while he's open to fucking anyone and anything that can consent, he does have a bit of a type. Asmodeus happens to check all those boxes.

Rick knows that the demon has a partner. They have never mentioned it, but he has picked up that piece of information pretty quickly (and he might have checked the local social medias too). He has never made a habit of getting in the way of others' relationships and he doesn't want to start now, or ever, but they are also in an area of Hell dedicated to lustful transgressions.

A small indulgence won't get him in trouble, will it? Not to mention that he has hardly ever been accused of being wise.

"H-Hey, buddy, you have a little something...Eh, l-let me get it for you."

It's clichéd as hell, or at least it would sound like that to someone who can catch up with his true intentions quickly enough, but he hopes that Asmodeus won't. The element of surprise is very much crucial for his little scheme.

Without waiting for an answer, he reaches out for the sin's face, as to use his fingers to wipe off the stain that it's not there, but at the last moment his whole body leans forward, following the movement of his his arm.

He doesn't go for the demon's main face. As tempting as it is and as bold as the alcohol in his system is making him, he is aware that he's still testing the waters here. So, the best course of action is to go for a less impactful target.

And those how his mouth finds one of Asmodeus' side heads, delivering a kiss that it's just slightly more than a chaste pet, but that still dares to linger for too long to be a tease or a mistake. Long enough to be clearly purposeful.

As he moves away, a sly smirk opens on his lips, like a cat who got the cream. Or something close enough to it.

"T-There you go, baby," he hums in satisfaction, as if he has done nothing that pushing a crumble off the other's face. "S-So, how can a guy get another round out of you?"

Whether he's talking about his currently empty glass or something much more intimate, it's unclear, and it's on purpose. He's letting the sin choose whether he wants to take an out and ignore the kiss, or address it and divulge the rules.

Rick is hoping for the former, but he isn't too high maintenance. He has learnt that, on the long term, it's better to get a hint, especially when allowed to wash it down with strong, good booze, and keep a precious friendship, than cutting ties over something as stupid as rejection.

The Rescue - Chapter 7

Chapter 7 - Oswald and Jim Discuss the Future

Jim had always known that Oswald was fragile emotionally, a fact he kept concealed inside a hard shell.  The notoriously ruthless, tough spirited gangster who could survive any amount of physical punishment and think - and fight - his way out of any dangerous, tricky situations, had become an expert at surviving and climbing.  He’d had to be, or he would have been sure to get trampled underfoot by the mobsters and henchmen he’d rubbed shoulders with.

He had seen Oswald’s vulnerability in his eyes the very first time they had met.

Sure, he’d been beating hell out of some poor bastard with a baseball bat - but that had been expected of him, after all, hadn’t it?  He had had to prove how ruthless he could be in front of Fish Mooney’s goons.  He’d been invited and encouraged in the activity by that side kick of hers, Butch Gilzean.

He had been far too eager to please and had rather overcompensated, but he had clearly wanted to make a good impression.  And that was just what he did - literally and metaphorically.  

Kill or be killed, that was the kind of world Gertrud Kapelput’s precious boy had gotten himself involved in.  He wasn’t sure how he’d got employed by Fish Mooney as her ‘umbrella boy’, and he wasn’t inclined to ask him.  The past was the past, as Oswald was often telling him when he'd attempted to apologise for yet another transgression he'd committed.

And it wasn’t as if the guy he was beating hadn’t been caught with his hands in the till beforehand….

Yep, Jim was smitten all right.  He’d always make excuses for Oswald.  But, after all, didn’t Oswald always make excuses for him, too?

He’d not been slow in administering physical punishment to get information and co-operation.  He used violence and threatening behaviour, turning to his brute strength,  to get what he wanted when mere words failed to get results.  He’d used that kind of force on Oswald more than once too. 

He’d since tried to apologise, promised that he would do his best to make up for it - and he now made a point of behaving like a gentleman towards him all the time -  but Ozzy hadn’t admonished him once over his previous bad treatment.  In fact, Oswald was very good at showing Jim’s guilt trips the door in his own inimitable way.

"Tsk, don’t be silly, James,” he’d said dismissively, cutting Jim’s anxious speech dead with a casual wave of his hand.  “As I keep telling you - constantly, Detective, the past is the past as far as I’m concerned.  And as I also never tire of repeating, you were just doing your job, as I was mine.  Please,  don’t give it a second thought.  Now, James honey - why don't you just ravish me if you're so determined to make amends….you know much I appreciate that..." 

That was an invitation Jim could never refuse.

He didn’t think he would ever really deserve Oswald.  Luckily, Oswald didn't seem to realise it.

Earlier, after Jim had driven them both home following their last goodbye to Gertrud, they had been sitting quietly on the sofa, just bathing in the comfort of each other's presence.  Then the silence was broken:

“What?”  Jim quizzed, gazing at Oswald curiously.

“What do you mean ‘what’, James?”

“You just gave me - well, a look -  and I’m not sure what you meant by it.”

“Ah.  Hmmmm.  You noticed." 

Oswald giggled nervously. 

"Hey, what's the matter?" Jim asked, reaching out and running his finger down Oswald's arm.

 "Well, Jim - um, promise you won't laugh....”

“Of course I won’t, sweetheart.”  Jim’s touch slid down to Oswald's hand and he held it fast.

“Well, then - it was that man, the one who had that young child with him - a boy.  We drove past them on the way here.  Did you see them?”

“Oh, yeah. Yeah, I remember.  I think the boy was his son.  He was carrying him on his  shoulders, and they were both laughing.”

“Yes, yes Jim, that’s who I mean.  A father and son.  They looked so happy!”

“Yes, they did, didn’t they?”  Jim smiled.  “So - what was it about them that caught your attention, Ozzy?”

“Well,  just after we passed them, and I had noticed them, I was compelled to look at you, and I was overcome with a feeling I never experienced before.  It was a strange sensation, but it was warm, and it felt good.  That's why I looked at you the way I did, and then again just now, as I remembered it, with the feeling and expression I can't explain.”

“Ah.”  Jim’s smile grew, and he gave Oswald's hand a squeeze.

“What, Jim?”

“Wow.”  Jim shook his head slowly.  “Ozzy - I think I might have an explanation for this!”

"Do you?  Then can you please explain it to me, James?”"

Jim's deep blue gaze focused fondly on his lover's  bemused face.

“Ozzy,” he said gently,  “I actually think you might be getting - well - a bit on the broody side!”

“Broody?  What?  Me? Jim, be serious!  I mean, really.   I’ve never, ever thought about having children.  In fact, whenever I have had the misfortune to cross paths with any, I have always seen them as a nuisance!” Oswald protested, wrinkling his nose with distaste.

Then he saw Jim’s expression, and instantly felt remorseful.

“Look, Jim,” he said apologetically, straightening his face,  “I don’t mean to be insensitive.  I’m just being honest with you….”

“Yeah, I know, Ozzy.  I know you might say you don’t want kids, but  - well,  listen, sweetheart.  I’ll let you in on a little secret, and this time you’ve gotta promise ME not to laugh."

"Of course, Jim. I wouldn’t do that to you.  And I'm sorry to respond so insensitively.   I can see this matter is important to you.”

"Thanks.  And it's ok, Ozzy.  It’s better that we’re honest and open with each other.   And now I’m going to be honest and open with you.  This is something I never told anyone, and I trust YOU not to think I’m being ridiculous.   Anyway - Lee and I discussed having kids once or twice, when we were getting on a lot better, a while ago.  You know, me coming home, her being there  with our kids, a cosy little family.  And yet, no matter how  I tried,  I just couldn’t visualise that scene.   That was one of the things that drove us apart in the end.   But, Ozzy - whenever I look at you, I can DEFINITELY see us having kids together.”  Jim bit his lip, broke into an awkward boyish grin, and his cheeks became tinged with pink.  

“Awww.  Really, Jim?”  Oswald arched his black brows with amazement. "You can see us at home, all comfy cosy - two dads and our kids running round us - a family?"

“Yep, Ozzy.  I’m sure of it.  You know that time you cried out ‘I want your babies’ when we were making love?  Although I responded with something like  'what the hell?'  and then we laughed it off, well, when I had time to think about it, I realised that I really could see you as a dad - even a birth dad!”    Jim chuckled shyly.

“A birth dad?!  Hmmm.  That is impossible though, isn’t it, Jim?  Men don't - and can’t - have babies, can they?" Oswald pondered, knitting his brows thoughtfully.

“Well, true - not at the moment, anyway.  But Ozzy - remember, this is Gotham, and in this city, anything is possible, isn't it?  Never say never!” Jim shrugged, smiling hopefully.

“Well, there, you do have a point,” Oswald acknowledged, cocking his head and smiling back.  “But, seriously, Jim,” he probed,  “do you really think we could be - well, parents?  The two of us, especially given this situation we find ourselves in?”

“Yes, I do, sweetheart - despite everything - or even,  because of it.  And I think that, deep down, you kinda feel that way too.”

“Oh.  Hmmm.”  Oswald pursed and stretched his lips as he reflected on what Jim had said for a moment.

 “Well,”  he resumed, nodding slowly and stretching his jet brows thoughtfully, “now you come to mention it, Jim - having children together - even in the biological sense -   isn't beyond the realms of possibility.  After all - I love you and you love me,  and we owe it to my mother, and your parents, to give them grandchildren, don’t we?  And why else would I have looked at you like that, and had that reaction?  I suppose, subconsciously,  I must be feeling a little ‘broody’, as you put it.  And that is no bad thing when you love someone as deeply as I love you.”  

Oswald locked gazes with Jim and his dimples grew.   There was a twinkle deep within his eyes.

“Awwww.  That’s - well, beautiful, Ozzy.  And I’m so relieved to hear you say out loud what I hoped you felt, you know, about kids and all.   You’ve made me so happy.  And - sweetheart, when you say those things - and look at me like that - I know that nothing is impossible."

“Ahhh, James.  As ever, you melt my heart with your honeyed words.  We need to explore this matter further - and soon.   But...Jim, however we achieve it, I agree wholeheartedly that we should give my mother..and your parents, too, of course...grandchildren.  The more I think about it, the more it occurs to me that it really does make perfect sense ...”

“Ah, sweetheart - so now you’ve thought about it, do you really want to have kids with me, at some point?”

“Yes, Jim.  Of course I do.  I love you, and I would really  love us to have a family.  But first, I would want to make sure we both ensured a safe haven for our children.  A Gotham where they would feel safe and protected.  Free to walk the street without the likes of the Galavans and their ilk threatening their lives, as well as threatening to destroy all that’s around them.  Do you agree?”

“Yes Ozzy.  Of course I agree.”

“And - now I’ve thought about it -  I would carry your children gladly, dear, I would love to think of your child growing inside my belly, if it became possible.   But in the meantime, I would be willing to adopt a child, or maybe even more than one, who we could give a home to - who we could love and protect.”  

Oswald’s eyes suddenly lit up with excitement.

“Oh, Jim, maybe I could even open an orphanage - in my mother’s name!  It would be the perfect tribute to her - what do you think?”

“Well, I think that’s a great idea, Oz.  But as you said, we both need to work to ensure  a safe city for our future family - wherever, and whoever they happen to come from."

Jim gently laid his hand on his belly. Oswald gasped with surprise.

“I know you would make a great birth dad, if you are ever given the chance, Ozzy," Jim continued.  "And we would give our kids so much love!  I’ll hold you to your offer, Mr Cobblepot,  if it ever becomes feasible for men to give birth - safely -  in this city."

Oswald put his hand over Jim's, holding it firmly in place.

"That was so poetically expressed, my dear, again you don't fail to warm my heart.   I hope one day I will get the opportunity to keep my promise, I know now that they weren’t just empty words said in the heat of passion, I really meant them.  And oh Jim, we couldn't fail to have the prettiest kids with you as their father.  You with your boyish good looks."

"And you, with your beauty and brains in their genes, means we definitely couldn't fail.  Awww Ozzy, you're perfect.  I would love to see them  inherit your eyes ...and those dimples.  Little duplicate Cobblepots….running everywhere…."

"Causing mayhem, no doubt," Oswald cut in with a chuckle.  “If they are anything like me!”

"I am sure you were a very well-behaved child,” Jim argued with a smile.  “I was a real tearaway when I was a boy, so they might well be little troublemakers if they take after me!  But anyway, sweetheart -  however they start out,  I’m sure they will grow up to be real pillars of the community.  Maybe they’ll even go into politics!"

"Slow down, Jim, you're going too fast!"  Oswald laughed. "Anyway,” he continued more solemnly,  “however they turn out, we will love them, won't we?"

"Of course we will. How could I not love them with your blood running through their veins?"

"James - dearest!  I swear you get profounder by the second…and thank you….I love you so much.”  

Some time later, as Oswald and Jim prepared to take on the Galavans and rescue Bruce Wayne from their murderous clutches:

"Oswald, please, put on the bullet proof vest!" Jim pleaded, as they all prepared to go into battle.

"Jim, honestly! You know I am virtually indestructible…." Oswald retorted impatiently.

"Ozzy, please, don’t argue…."

"Geez, you two," cut in Harvey with exasperation.  "We can’t stand round here arguing while Galavan gets away with killing the son of Gotham. Put on the damn vest already and let’s go!"

"Thanks Harv," Jim murmured gratefully as Oswald reluctantly put on his armour, grumbling under his breath. Jim hoped fervently that he would never need it, but, better safe than sorry.

He would never forgive himself if the King of Gotham - his precious Oswald - was harmed.

Jim knew he would kill to save Oswald if he had to.  He wouldn't hesitate….

[gothamiteneko]

I watched the fifth season's premiere of Gotham some days ago and since then, there have been running some comments about what happened, but i'm not talking about everything about it, i mean, not like general impressions or something like that (it was such a great and exciting episode, btw, i still can't get over with it, omg... But that's another story, lol), but especifically about that scene with Oswald and Tabitha and the whole drama around it... that also has it's own issues for the way the show decided to go with it, but yeah, is not the main discussion here.

My point to walk out of my usual silence, is cuz one dear friend of mine said something like "Robin has tweeted that all of Oswald's humanity will be gone. This hurts me so much" and as much as i love Robin (just like everyone else does, i'm sure), since my friend said that and apparently is not the only one feeling like this, i felt the necessity to share MY POINT OF VIEW of what i think (and told my friend) about this particular topic, so, here we go (this will be long and i'm not that bad with english, but is not my mother language either, so i apologize for the mistakes, hope it can make some sense anyway xD)...

So, about what Robin tweeted... I wouldn't worry that much x) he said the same thing when he realized about Butch's death in the script xD but what happened? nothing, in fact we all celebrated that finally Ozzy had revenge for his mother's death (i mean, c'mon, Tabitha really deserved it, she deeply dug her own grave, literally and figuratively).

If with "Oswald will becomes a monster" Robin means that he will suffer again another lose of a very important person for him (aka Martin) so he will lose his temper and will go berserk seeking revenge against whoever dared to do such a thing (probably will be Barbara... Or maybe Mother?) and when he found them, he will kill each one of them slowly, painfully and without any remorse seen on his face, then will be the same thing like when Butch or Tabitha died, cuz it was something they forced him to do, i mean, even when Butch or Barbara, or Ed or Jim (or in whoever you like to think... Except Tabitha or Theo, of course xD) betrayed him the way they did, Oswald forgave them and tried to pass through it in order to stay at peace with himself and cuz, as he always says -referring here especifically to people with who he is fond of in some way- "for the old times", so if he will "become a monster" then he will REALLY need a HUGE reason to become the cold-hearted and ruthless villain that Robin asures he will become, and even then, i doubt it, because of how the series (forget the comics, let's treat this like the legit AU from the DC world it is) had portrayed -till now- Ozzy's behaviour and development as a character:

Oswald doesn't kill without a reason if it is possible, he almost always needs a motivation to do it (like that time when he killed a man for a tuna sandwich... that could count as self-preservation... In a slightly creepy way but still, lol. Or when after that, he killed that guy in the car that insulted him calling him "penguin", i mean, if the guy would have kept his mouth shut, nothing would had happen to him cuz Oswald was supposed to stay lowkey since that moment), and loves to have the control over any situation, so he usually needs to know that those murders have a purpose (even the most tiny one) in his elaborated plans or to know/be sure that he won't need that person once again (then he will prefer to keep them alive for a while... if they don't cause him any other problem first). But even if he starts killing without feeling nothing while doing it on this season, that wouldn't be new cuz he was already like that too, just right in the first season! i mean, c'mon! he killed a man for a tuna sandwich, he killed one of Maroni's employees just to get his boots, he sat down waiting patiently and smiling while watched how those foolish robbers died for the poisoned cannoli and then he just left with the money as fresh and calm as if nothing would have ever happened, he stabbed a man right in the front door of HIS MOM'S HOUSE... and i could keep going and going with examples just for the S1. So he is not an innocent creature, he can be a very dangerous man despite his short height and general physical appereance, and is very visceral when he is blinded by rage and fear (like when he killed Tarquin using just his hands and a statue that the poor man had on his desk, cuz Oswald thought that he took his father's remains off of his grave to make Os fell in some kind of trap for an unknown reason or just to make him go crazy, ruin his reputation and make him seem weak in front of his enemies), so is not a surprise if he now seems to be absolutely heartless and behaves like an unpredictable and capricious dictator with the people at his service or with anyone in general. In fact, i personally find that change very suitable for him after all the physical and emotional damage he has been receiving all his life, after all those betrayals he had to endure from those who were supposed to be his friends and in who Oswald trusted. So, in contrary, i love how he now says "enough!" and closes his heart to everyone, cuz he is done of being him the one who always gives several opportunities and/or warnings; or the one who always trusts, loves and shares but despite any good intention he could have with anyone, he always continues being underestimated, hurt, humiliated, called names and judged by his acts and thoughts as if they really knew him or like if Oswald was the only one who is being selfish or like if he was the only one to blame for everything cuz he is the only "monster" and psychopath in the room, but not. Also i love how he is absolutely conscious of the enormous power and influence he has now, cuz he earned it all by himself, from the very ashes, from the very beginning all over again, and overall now, in the middle of the worst crisis the city had ever experienced, he is rising and climbing higher than ever before, he is swimming in familiar waters and as everyone very well know, penguins can perfectly fly in the water; so the cold behaviour he has now is not just very well justified but it is also more than necessary for him to embrace it fully, because he is surrounded by a very hostile environment, so then he knows that the desperation and the general knowledge about how he has every resource he could ask (guns, rounds, food, water, territory, minions, "muscle", etc) will make everyone to try to steal anything from him, at least once, and he obviously won't let that happen. He has always been a survivor and he knows with what kind of enemies and obstacles he is dealing with.

Now, if the writers, producers and Robin himself (and i say this with all my love and respect for Robin) want to think and believe that we fans will hate Ozzy because his behaviour "took us all by surprise" and "did a so unexpected 180° turn without any kind of warning", just cuz he is now acting like the villain he has always been, i think they will be the ones that will be surprised when they find out that nothing has really changed about the love of the fandom for our dear angry and murderous birb (is not like if he really suddenly would had went from a tender and sweet boy that we learnt to love from S1 to S4, to a cold-hearted murderer for the sake of "YOLO, haters gonna hate" in S5, pleeeease).

I think that Gotham's version in particular, of Oswald "The Penguin" Cobblepot, has a place very well earned in our hearts thanks to Robin's interpretation (he really embraced the character and brought him to life) and all the other people involved in the character's development,who have give him a complexity, a charisma, a background, etc. so well established and explored until now, that he is more than just another villain (not just in the series but into any kind of media -even written-, including other versions and portrayals of this same character, where his personality and story is not really taken more seriously, or is being exaggerated or being taken out of context or is simply not known enough by the general audience -besides comics' readers or the DC fans, especially if they actually take a moment to try to understand the characters- to make them have sympathy and a deeper and better conection with him, so he would be more loved and popular by who he is, as it happens with other characters/villains, like the Joker's case, for example); now "The Penguin" has become one villain that is also very relatable cuz now we can be first-line witnesses, so we have the opportunity to take a closer and better look into a ONE (1) more tangible POINT OF VIEW (i want to be very clear with this, cuz is Gotham's version, is Gotham's point of view) of his tragic story (his childhood as a bullied kid, his relationship with his mom and his dad including their deaths, all the very few people he once really trusted and/or loved and betrayed him or instead, in some cases, were taken away from him -permanently or temporary- to hurt him), his motivations (he does it cuz he wants recognition because he is ambicious and has always been invisible, outcasted, underestimated; but also cuz he wants a better life for him and his mom, for example; to protect and give her everything they lacked for years, aka, he does a lot of things for LOVE -an irony, considering that this is precisely the main point of his whole tragedy in almost any version of his character, i mean, the lack or absence of it for real in his life-. He is mainly driven by his emotions/his heart, doesn't matter if he is cautious and afraid at first, but after some time he opens his heart and gives it to someone in who he really wants to believe that is a person worth of take care of it... or if he now prefers to hide it to don't get hurt again) his actions and decisions (he is evil, cunning, intelligent, etc. but he is not undefeatable, he is human too, he has his flaws and can do mistakes as everyone else) that now is almost impossible to try to convince us that he is the embodiment of the worst atrocity ever created, doesn't matter how he looks or what he does, even if he never will be redeemed, cuz we all know why he is how he is and why he behaves like that (as i said, he is a very relatable character).

In conclusion, i'm sure Ozzy will always be our fav if they keep his development as solid and well constructed as it has been all this time, i mean, if they keep him in character, if they remain loyal to the story they have been telling us about him along these years (i mean, have been FIVE years, that must mean something for them, some effort and non sleep-time at least) and don't suddenly go 100% OoC just cuz they are forcing the plot to justify his villainy to the point of finally make him "become a monster" (like in "see what he did??? *insert a forced series of absurd and unbelievable nonsense for the sake of it* he is a monster! He is a horrible person who doesn't deserve any kindness or love in his life!") like SERIOUSLY? Are you really throwing to the trash the complex character that Oswald is, just for THIS? *points to the absurd and nonsense plot they throw at us*, are you despising one of the best and well written characters in the show just cuz you are hurry to end the series and you can't go before make your point very clear at all costs, of how you were always right about why we shouldn't like Ozzy so much if he is who he is, and then shove it in our faces? Well, news flash! we already knew it, we know who he is and we still love him and will always do. If we have forgiven (or at least i'm at peace with that) the poor plots involving our dear birb (like the Nygmob cockblock cuz Kristen 2.0, the stupid ending of his friendship with Ivy, the not permanent death of Sofia or the whole absurd drama and betrayal of Ed and Lee or *insert your fav poor birb-related plot's issue here*), i think is safe enough to say that we will be ok with whatever can come to us now and we will remain loving Ozzy to the very end... as long as they don't destroy what they had reached with Oswald as a character after all this time (again, FIVE years), just to try to change our minds and hearts at the last moment, cuz it was already too late for that since years ago.

P.d. Also, there always will exist the fandom to adopt this character (or any other fav you want, depending of the fandom we are talking about) and give him a better treatment cuz that's how should happen, aka, "fix what canon ruined", so the fandom will make our dreams come true xD whichever they are xD and we will be able to happily ignore or change the canon at any point, to give that place to our own versions of the facts instead xD

Solomon Singularity: Section 14~End

YAS, THE FINAL POST AND FINAL HALF AGAINST GOETIA!!! This has been long week of queue post on the final singularity... A painful and sad yet also the best ending no one could ever asked for the closure on the first half of the FGO main story... Let’s welcome and finish it to the end!

Section 14

Running out of the throne back towards throne, Da Vinci urged us to get to the gate quickly before we disappeared into the light with the Singularity.

Jeanne announcing to all Servants that we’ve won at last. Though it was a shame everyone left early... At least Gilgamesh still stick around. or giving the words to Jeanne we’ll take care of everything in our hands for humanity

Though.. At his final words, because Beast Class behave like a chain of reaction... The Final Evil supposedly Beast VII will show up eventually.

But... As we hurried... WHAT?! GOETIA IS STILL ALIVE?! And before us now in a human form... A final fight to end this came... With the pride at stake for humanity, own future and lives... We witness the final fight to return humanity back to normal!

With the final strike... Goetia vanished completely, complimenting human life may be short but it’s also fascinating to the end. As we tried to reach for the gate with pathway collapsing... 

Mash? Her hand stretched out to us as we finally reyshifted out of the temple!

Section 15

At somewhere in the void, Mash meets a strange being who grants her back to life. As her tasks has yet to be completed, a Beast introduced themselves... Cath Palug aka Fou, revealed himself to be the Beast Class known as Primate Murder.

At the price of bringing back Mash’s life, Fou will lose his own personality and will to become a normal animal instead. While Mash cried out to him, Fou congratulates Chaldea for defeating him with no blood needed to be shed...

Back with the familiar opening sequence... Mash.... She really did came back to life. Da Vinci greeting us as we returned Chaldea in peace! As she congratulates..... And avoiding the dead person... Looks like things will be busy for the coming EOR and future ahead

As the mission is to go outside... We finally the clear blue sky of our time, without Solomon’s band of rings to incinerate humanity. The first part of our journey has come to an end at last...!

Though before it ends, Da Vinci remembers her conversation with Romani during America Singularity. Looks like Da Vinci knew all along about Romani’s trump card... And his own true identity. Romani also talked about his own past as King Solomon’s own personality... And how eventually Romani’s name came to be.... Knowing things will be in good hands, Romani entrusted the future of Chaldea and humanity into our hands

Observation & Thoughts:

Other than the raids against those stupid pillars.. This is much easier when you really do bring Herc-chan for the final fight

Definitely proud and happy that no Command Seals were used to complete this final Singularity!

Pillars themselves:

Just bring your best and highest bond level and borrowed support to complete

Each of them are personally a big bitch, especially Halphas, who the fuck crits 24/7 for a pillar!

Preferably to deal with them each... Bring your best bond level Berserker, ST NP preferred, to one shot them

Raid wise after trying out.... I really lost motivation because unless this is Rashomon or so... My motivation went straight zero since I prefer not doing something like this for a main quest OTL But hey, drop rates are good since Barbatos still died and bullied the most till the very end!

Goetia: King of Demon Gods

Servant with skill seal fucking works! PLease do fucking bring them and NP charge/instant use so that he doesn’t nuke your whole team!

But this fight is the most scariest because Herc-chan was soloing during 3/4 of his HP

Nevertheless by his final guts from skill.... He deal the finishing blow onto him!

But yeah, Ozzy and Quetz or those with NP seal are more preferred in this fight 

Goetia: King of Humans

If you can’t time when he decided to use his suicide attack... Stall long enough until he decided to use it!

I went with George, Kintoki, Waver support, Jeanne, Ozymandias and Herc-chan

And surprisingly... MVP is actually George he actually stalled until nearly half of his HP before dying

With Jeanne coming in though I didn’t use her NP, their defense is just practically there since it’s taking forever to Goetia to kill either one

His suicide attack was used on Turn 14 nearing to 99k HP left, so after killing them...

Ozzy and Herc-chan came out, with Ozzy dealing the final brave chain overkilled damage to him!

It varies on people again (which is fucking rng itself), so if you can get the timing to put up guts... Have him stalled long enough to kill only your first five Servants, leaving the last Servant to deal the killing blow

Now that this is over... Time to go back to grinding hell and interludes to complete before Moon Goddess rerun! :D
