@paranormaljunction Asked:
❛ i just thought you’d like some company. ❜ Kyrie to Judas, from this meme
【❖】 ―――― Judas lowered his head as he took a moment to light his cigarette. A part of him is glad Kyrie is here and another part of him wishes she wasn��t. In saving her from the mess he had gotten her into there was no way for him to hide the transformation he had gone through. While she has accepted what he is, that doesn’t erase the fact that as long as she is with him she is a target for anyone and everyone who has a grudge against his family. Despite the risks, Judas couldn't deny the warmth that Kyrie's presence brought him. She had a way of grounding him, reminding him that there was still some humanity left within him despite the darkness that surrounded his family legacy. But the way Kyrie looked at him, as if he was her savior, made Judas feel a flicker of warmth in his cold heart. Her unwavering loyalty tugged at something deep inside him, a part of him that had long been buried under layers of betrayal and bloodshed.
❝ Thanks for being here, Kyrie. I know it's not safe, but I appreciate your company more than you know. ❞ Judas couldn't help but feel a sense of guilt gnawing at him. He knew that his world was a dangerous one, and he had no right to drag Kyrie into it. But there a selfishness tugging at him because the only time he truly felt happiness and at ease with himself was when he was with her. Everything was a mess right now and he was to blame for all of it. It was because of him that Kyrie had been hurt and kidnapped and it was because of him that his mother was forced to had over daylight rings to two of the most dangerous vampires in Santa Carla. He wants to go after them for everything they’ve done but he’s ordered to let it go. What was the point in trading the life he had for the one he has now when he still can’t do what he should be doing — and that’s putting a stop to all of who would threaten the people he cares most about ?
Judas turned to Kyrie and brushed a strand of hair from her face, his touch gentle yet hesitant. He could see the worry in her eyes, the fear that lingered beneath the surface, and it pained him to know that he was the cause of it all. But in that moment, as they stood there, Judas made a silent vow to himself. He would do whatever it takes to keep Kyrie safe, even if it meant going against his own families wishes. ❝ Kyrie, I need you to understand something, ❞ He began, his voice low and tinged with a mix of regret and determination. ❝ I can't promise you a normal life. Being with me means you'll always be a target, always looking over your shoulder. But I can promise you that I’ll do everything within my power to make sure no one ever hurts you again. I should have told you about me sooner, but I didn't want to drive you away knowing I was a monster. ❞ Maybe the smartest thing for her to do was to turn around and run as far away from him as possible.

“𝑰 𝒂𝒎 𝒅𝒆𝒆𝒑𝒍𝒚 𝒔𝒐𝒓𝒓𝒚 𝒇𝒐𝒓 𝒎𝒂𝒌𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝒚𝒐𝒖 𝒅𝒐 𝒕𝒉𝒊𝒔,” The Scion of Sparda tilted his head toward the source of the abashed apology which was Nero's fair maiden, Kyrie, walking side by side with him.
“Do not be, for it is of my own accord.” He tilted his chin toward the plates and eating utensils alike, filling his arms, a state mirrored by the maiden who flashed him a timid yet genuine smile nonetheless.
The nurturing duo entered the humble dining area, the maiden first at the cambion's urbane dip of head.
“Then I would like to let you know how grateful I am that you are here, Mr. Vergil,” Kyrie remarked as she set her burden over the table. “If it were on my own, we wouldn't get dinner done anytime soon.”
“Consider naught, it is an honor to render you an assistance,” he returned courtly, the while setting the plates and utensils upon the table, side by side with each utensil flanking the plate like his lady mother has shown and since instilled in him.
“In that case, maybe you would like to make this an occasional pastime?” Something in Kyrie's change of tone beckoned him to look up. “Only when it is convenient for you, of course.”
An inspiriting surprise bud in his chest upon comprehending what the maiden bespoke: the invitation to visit and spend time in her and Nero's humble yet cordial household.
At the thought of household howbeit, his eyes stole a surreptitious glance at the rambunctious lot that were the orphans that the heartful couple had in their shared custody.
“I'll make sure they behave,” Kyrie assured with mirth in her soft tone upon following his line of sight. “They adore you though, you must know. Normally they keep their distance from guests.”
“So I have discerned, to quite an extent.” Memory of one of said lot trying to climb onto his lap was still fresh in his mind. It didn't help that his brother and the artisan of arms, Nico, ‒ he summoned her name from his humanity's recollection ‒ evidently took amusement from his fraternal predicament by simply laughing and cooing respectively, until his son, ‒ power bless his tact ‒ took pity on his apparent discomfort and coaxed the child away.
“The children aside, I am sure Nero would appreciate your presence here more often.”
At the mention of his tumultuous offspring, Vergil's gaze flicked toward where the young man was, currently debating with his brother over something undoubtedly trivial.
The thought of knowing his own flesh and blood that he was forced to abandon right after his conception due to circumstances then, elicited a mix of anticipation, curiosity and congeniality within him.
“Your invitation is heeded with gratitude, Miss Kyrie.”
He bestowed upon his son's maiden a beginning yet sincere hint of smile nonetheless. One that she acknowledged with a gracious nod before the two of them headed back to the kitchen to procure what they had prepared for dinner.

Chosen of the Sun | | dawn // thirty-two
| @maladi777 | @izayoichan
POLL RESULTS | The audience vote ties 50/50. The poll is decided by a coinflip resulting in favor of using the scroll. Indryr's [TRUTH SCROLL] is depleted and will no longer be available for future use.
next / previous / beginning
INDRYR: If he knows anything more, it may be to our benefit to try. We don’t know when we’ll get the opportunity to confront someone like him again. KYRIE: I guess you’re right, but… Well, let’s get it over with, then. KYRIE: My lord, might we speak to you a moment? ELDEWYN: Mm? Ah, of course! Help yourself to the wine in the meantime, Master Bard! ASTER: Way ahead of you! ELDEWYN: Yes, Your Grace? How might I help you? KYRIE: Indryr. ELDEWYN: What is that? What are you doing—?! INDRYR: You know more about Castien than you’re letting on. ELDEWYN: Why on earth do you care so much about him? What is this nonsense? Help! Help! KYRIE: Please, my lord, don’t— ELDEWYN: In here, help me at once— KYRIE: Stop shouting. INDRYR: Your Grace… ELDEWYN: What… are you doing… to me… KYRIE: I didn’t want it to have to come to this. We’re not trying to hurt you. We just need information. Indryr, please proceed. INDRYR: I… Uh… right. Castien Thallan, who was he really? ELDEWYN: I told you what I know! I’m just a magistrate! I remember rumors swirling at the time that Castien was the illegitimate child of some noble… They said he had claim to a great fortune and that is why he’d come up from the south to stir trouble, but I can’t tell you what I don’t know! INDRYR: The scroll will make sure of that. Then, his followers believed him to be of noble bloodline? ELDEWYN: I suppose they did, how should I know what they thought? I never met them! They were rowdy and destructive! Made noise and broke things wherever they went! They had a clear disdain for authority. We of the aristocracy knew to steer clear. INDRYR: And after Castien’s death? What happened to them? ELDEWYN: The few that remained became outspoken protesters of the trials. But back then there was a movement to have the tradition done away with. They weren’t the only ones to speak out. Once the rules were altered, it got quiet and I haven’t heard a thing about it since! KYRIE: You said Castien’s involvement in the trials was predetermined. ELDEWYN: There were whispers that the priest before you— Lord Ilduin— had been bribed by Castien’s father. It’s all hearsay. I said I don’t know. KYRIE: Then he doesn’t. It’s all speculation. ELDEWYN: Release me at once! KYRIE: Very well. But you will speak nothing of this. You will tell no one we were here or what we’ve asked of you. ELDEWYN: Yes, Your Grace. ELDWYN: Now if you would all kindly get out of my home. Now! KYRIE: Aster, Lucien, let’s go. ASTER: Hm? Has it all gone tails up then? LUCIEN: We heard yelling… KYRIE: Please just gather your things. We’re leaving. KYRIE: wincing INDRYR: Your Grace… you’re unwell. KYRIE: I’m fine. INDRYR: You… have the power to compel. KYRIE: And it’s no easy feat. It takes a heavy toll to force your will on another. INDRYR: I expect it is quite the burden… One might find you quite the formidable foe. KYRIE: Trust me, Indryr, if I’d ever used my powers on any of you, you’d know of it. It’s not something one can hide. A mind is very aware when it loses control. Duke Eldewyn will only submit so long as I channel the spell. But there was no other way. If he tells anyone what we’ve done… KYRIE: I- Indryr? I… Please— INDRYR: Don’t worry, Your Grace. Your secret is safe with me.

ME!ME!ME!
Solo!Bottom!Nero
You told me, I'm all yours;
I will become your special little one
(I feel) all the pain, all of the hate; it's building up, could I (just) be a (dream)?
----------------------------------------------------------
The wind brushes through Nero's hair as he stands outside of the abandoned cave, a feeling of nervousness rushing through him, but why? It was just a cave, besides you did request him to clean it out, to make sure no enemies were lurking in the dark. He sighs and walks in, unaware of what's about to happen.
The sound of wet footsteps fill Nero's ears as the dirt beneath him turns into mud, he stops in his tracks as he's met with a pond of clear light blue water, weird, he expected it to be a little dirtier.
His thought were interrupted by a tight grip on his ankle, he looks down to be met with a tentacle holding him down tightly, he tries to kick it off, but ultimately falls over onto his ass. The tentacle takes this as an opportunity and pulls him into the water, a yelp leaves him as he's dragged into the water.
After a few more seconds, Nero was thrown out of the water and into the other side of the cave, he coughs as he gasps for air, his throat burning from the water caught inside it.
And this time, without warning, the same tentacle wraps around his ankle again, Nero shakes his head in desperation, only to feel that the tentacle wasn't dragging him around, but instead it was wrapping around his entire leg underneath his pants. He tries to use his hand to grab it, but was pulled back by a different tentacle wrapping into his sleeve.
He wriggles around, trying to get out of this uncomfortable position, only to feel two other tentacles wrapping around his free limbs.
So here he sat, his arms tied together along with both of his legs in the air and awkwardly spread apart. He squirms around as another tentacle goes straight for his face, inserting itself into his mouth as a sort of makeshift gag, he chokes on it as it goes as deep as it could into his throat.
Another tentacle somehow works strategically and rips off his pants, he whimpers as the cold air waves over his semi-hard cock. Nero throws his head back as the tentacle that ripped his pants off starts stroking him up and down, his legs twitch uncomfortable as a cold object inserts itself into his ass, another tentacle, Jesus, how many tentacles are there? Doesn't matter, what matters is how weirdly pleasurable this is.
"Mmm! Mmff!~" his moans were muffled by the tentacle inside his throat, he throws his head back and his eyebrows furrow together, the tentacle inside him making quick work as it thrusts in and out of him.
He gasps as he feels himself cum all over himself, although the tentacles inside him weren't finished, not yet.
He wriggles his body as the tentacle in his ass thrust faster and deeper than before, his eyes roll into the back of his head.
His mouth was all of a sudden filled with a sweet and thick liquid, he hesitantly swallows it as the tentacle pulls itself out of his mouth.
"Ah! Ah! Shit, I'm gonna! I'm gonna-!" His sentence was interrupted by his orgasm washing over him, he bucks his hips up as the tentacle inside him and around his dick let go of him as they disappear to wherever they came from.
The tentacles around his arms and legs also let go of him and fall back into place. Nero pants and falls limp as he tries to catch his breath back, maybe you and Kyrie will come back looking for him, hopefully.
| 30 minutes later... |
"I can't swim!!" Kyrie shouts at you as she stares into the clear pool of water beneath her.
You sigh at her as you take your top off and dive in, not bothering to argue with her, you swim to the top of the other side and walk out.
Your eyes immediately lock with a naked Nero, lying limp and covered in... God knows what.
Oh how are you going to tell Kyrie about this.
----------------------------------------------------------
A/N: this is bad, don't look at it DON'T LOOK AT IT

Can you do some headcanons for the Devils?
Oh, absolutely! I've got a bunch of thoughts about these guys, and while I share some with @freeusemuses I'd love to share more!
First, while Scourge is technically the leader of the group, he trusts Verdant to be the leader in his absence, considering him to be the most reliably responsible member after him.
When Kyrie falls asleep, her phantom limbs don't disappear, but they don't fall asleep with her, and will often adjust the covers and pillows, pull her closer to Scourge, or get a bit handsy.
Aqua has unknowingly earned the attention of Vax as the Keep's new resident Rogue, and he will assist her subtly from beyond the veil with her roguish skills—which translates to her having the Luck feat.
Gamora can bake! She mostly does bread loafs, but if she's in a good mood she also makes different types of pastries.
Despite literally having a being of pure lust as his patron, Omega is not actually the most successful eligible bachelor in Greystone Keep—let's just say Jeanne is as much a heartbreaker as Beau is.
There is not a single member of this group with an INT bonus higher than +2—in fact, the only ones who do are Jeanne (Proficient in History and Tinkering) and Aqua (Expertise in Investigation).
Once the group expands into an adventuring guild, there are two tests for anyone wanting to join. If you're a combat-focused initiate, you have to land a hit on Gamora before she knocks you out. If you're a spellcaster, you need to be able to cast and hold a Charm on Omega for twelve seconds.
Ignoring all the lewd snippets about this group, everyone in the Devils has fucked everyone else in the Devils at least once. And yes, I do mean everyone—as Vax once said, everyone's a little bisexual.
The Keep has gone through three stages of renovations since the Devils took over, and by the time Campaign 3 rolls around and the Guild is up and running, it's a veritable castle rivaling Whitestone.

Nero activated his devil trigger mode all on his own unlike dante and Vergil who stabbed themselves with swords to unlock this power. Nero did this outta sheer power of will thinking of kyrie and his only family dante and Vergil. Similar to his dad, nero is emotionally driven he’s the most emotionally driven character in the games. Vergil is emotionally driven but only outta fear. Where as nero experience’s a wide range of emotions like love for kyrie and hatred for Sanctus church, confusion of his own identity and so on. All these emotions are what makes him human also the fact he is only 1/4 demon lol (biracial moment) in dmc 5 Vergil eats the qliphoth fruit fueled by human blood to become stronger. It’s the Demon tree giving him power because of the human blood. As I mentioned nero is 1/4 demon and 3/4 human meaning the blood in him fuels him the same day the human blood does Vergil. He has natural talent. Raw power BECAUSE of his humanity. Like he said in dmc4 he heard something calling for more power inside him. He differs from dante who masters different devil arms by practicing which we see in his clean play through. But nero plays in a way that is more violent and messy. Emotionally driven who performs incredible feats through his motivation and love and anger and all his other human qualities unlike his uncle. We all know the anime logic of more emotions equals more power take a look at the uchiha clan and naruto himself when he was a kid and couldn’t control the 9 tails . Same logic applies to nero. Nero was able to unlock his devil trigger and grown a new arm outta love. Do you understand how big of a deal this is? Love is the most powerful thing on earth just like Sade said I rest my case
#txt#Nero#dmc#don’t piss me offfffff#Nero is everything and more#me bring naruto into this Ghjgffhhf#and Sade ��😭😭#but it’s true like

Storia Di Musica #274 - AA.VV., Easy Rider (O.s.t.), 1969
Le storie di musica di Maggio le ho scelte pescando da un oceano immenso: le colonne sonore. Sono comparse già in passato in questa rubrica, ma non in senso organico. Nemmeno stavolta sarà possibile essere esaustivi, occorrerebbero centinaia di domeniche, ma ne ho scelte 4, particolari, dove il rapporto con la canzone rock è decisivo, anche e soprattutto come genesi dell’intero accompagnamento musicale al film. Easy Rider era uno slang un po’ sboccato per definire un playboy, ma dopo che Dennis Hopper decise di usarlo per il titolo del suo primo film, è divenuto sinonimo di motociclista, che vive la vita in libertà da antieroe. Hopper insieme a Peter Fonda firma la sceneggiatura di uno dei più grandi film degli anni ‘60, manifesto della stagione hippie americana, e nel 1969 esce nelle sale Easy Rider (che in italiano ha un sottotitolo Libertà E Paura): Wyatt e Bill, dopo avere trasportato un carico di cocaina dal Messico agli Stati Uniti, investono parte del guadagno in due motociclette nuove con l'intenzione di attraversare il paese, dalla California a New Orleans, per andare a vedere il carnevale. Le due moto, Captain America che aveva la bandiere a stelle e strisce sul serbatoio, e Billy Bike, che aveva il motivo a fiamme, sono i due nuovi carri della frontiera, in un viaggio dove i nostri sono visti sempre di cattivo occhio, vengono arrestati, incontrano altri personaggi bizzarri (come George Hanson, interpretato da un leggendario Jack Nicholson), sperimentano le droghe, un finale tragico (che lascio a chi non ha visto il film di scoprire). Hopper si dice che volesse in un primo momento usare come commento sonoro le canzoni che passava la radio mentre era in lavorazione in film. In un secondo momento, vennero contattati Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young, ma non si fece più nulla. Peter Fonda chiese al suo amico Bob Dylan di usare It’s Alright Ma (I’m Only Bleeding) per una delle scene decisive, ma Dylan declinò (per poi cedere all’utilizzo in un secondo momento), e leggenda vuole che scrisse su un foglietto questi versi: ”The river flows, it flows to the sea/Wherever that river goes, that's where I want to be/Flow, river, flow” con questo consiglio “Portalo a Roger McGuinn”. Fonda così fece e McGuinn scrisse Ballad Of Easy Rider, partendo da quel verso, che divenne la canzone colonna portante del disco. Hopper, che in verità all’inizio aveva problemi di bugdet, cerco di limitare le canzoni. Ma il film, che ebbe successo incredibile fin da subito, spinse la ABC Dunhill a pubblicare la colonna sonora. Dato l’alone mitico della pellicola, finì che le canzoni in essa contenuta diventeranno altrettanto mitiche: caso emblematico furono i due brani scelti degli Steppenwolf, The Punisher ma soprattutto Born To Be Wild, una delle prima canzoni proto metal, uscita un anno prima (1968) nell’album d’esordio della band e che è associata ormai a qualsiasi viaggio su una autostrada un po’ libera. Hopper scelse la magia di Hendrix, nella suggestiva If 6 Was 9, da Axis: Bold As Love del 1967, dove la chitarra di Jimi sembra un uccello magico spaziale nel finale, e poi altre chicche della stagione psichedelica musicale: il folk psichedelico dei The Holy Modal Rounders con If You Want To Be A Bird (Bird Song), l’ode all’erba di Don’t Bogart That Joint dei Fraternity Of Men (che fu il nucleo primitivo da cui poi nacquero gli stupefacenti Little Feat), la musica da carnevale di Kyrie Eleison/Mardi Gras (When The Saints) degli Electric Prunes che inizia come il kyrie delle messe preconciliari. Chiudono il tutto la ripresa di McGuinn di It’s Allright Ma (I’m Only Bleeding), i Byrds, che rifaranno come singolo di successo Ballad Of Easy Rider, che riprendono con garbo Wasn't Born To Follow (del magico duo Carole King/Gerry Goffin) e uno dei brani simbolo degli anni ‘60 della stagione americana, The Weight de The Band, che nel film è nella versione originale della mitica band canadese, nel disco è cantata da un gruppo che si chiama Smith, perchè la Capitol Records che aveva i diritti non li cedette per la colonna sonora su disco. Il disco fu anch’esso un successo, arrivando al numero 6 della classifica di Billboard e diventando disco d’oro nel gennaio 1970. Il film, che vincerà due premi Oscar a Nicholson come attore non protagonista e per la sceneggiatura originale, finirà per creare due archetipi: uno dal punto di vista visivo, l’altro sullo stesso uso della musica per i film, contribuendo anche all’idea stessa di una certa America, che continua ancora oggi a suggestionare, a confondere, ad affascinare ed impaurire.

For the fantasia event, Kyrie is still living in the equivalent of Cotes ward: the Kingdom of Airaisal. They're now an alraune, with green skin and hair resembling the petals of a red spider lily. While their more ghostly powers seem to have disappeared, they're skilled with status afflictions and utilitarian magicks, which are capable of similar feats. They do live in Diapool, but on the very edge of it, finding some interaction with crowds of other beings better than both none and a lot.
#reference#normal replies are not on hold... I must simply get to them!#but if anyone currently threading with me also wants something for the event. you are welcome

“Fair’s fair,” Zoey agreed. She decided to wait until they were away from the main house and into Santa Carla itself before she revealed anything juicy. Not that she thought that the parental units would be the type to overhear anything, but she didn’t want to be too sure. She didn’t want to get her own hopes up. With everything happening in general, she wasn’t exactly sure that speaking about this to anyone would jinx the situation. She had her fingers crossed that it wouldn’t. So they simply chit-chatted about this and that in the meantime.
Once the boardwalk was in sight, Zoey revealed all to her little brother. Despite her eagerness to check out the clam chowder festival, she was actually more excited to talk about Logan. While people were milling in and out of the park, she paused outside and clasped her hands behind her back.
“His name is Logan Blake, and he’s actually a childhood friend of our brother-in-law, Colin. He’s the one that helped us take out Colin’s old tormentor. We kinda started talking and working together. I mean, I did most of the talking, and he listened.”
She chuckled and shrugged her shoulders. “We all know I have a big mouth. Logan’s pretty much just like Colin in terms of personality. Same mannerisms, too. Think of Colin, but with lighter colored hair, and these amazing blue eyes. I’ve never seen anyone with such intense and beautiful eyes like Logan’s.”
A wide grin spread across her face. “I probably should mention he is an excellent hunter. He can definitely take care of himself just like Colin, so you don’t have to worry about his work credentials. He checks all the boxes when it comes to hunting and destroying vampires.”
Judas’ chin would lower a bit as he listened to his sister talk about this guy she was interested in. His hands dipped into his pockets watching the way her face just seemed to glow the very second she started talking about him. He honestly couldn’t remember a single time he had seen her beaming like this. Which only meant one thing, if this dude messed up and broke his sister’s heart Judas was going to have to break his face.
If he was a good friend of Colin’s then he would give the guy a chance. Colin turned out to be an okay guy and the love of one of his sisters’ lives. Not that he really saw much of Zoe or Colin. Everyone just seemed to be tangled up in their own family issues. It meant a lot to him that he was the one Zoey first decided to share this information with.
“ At least now I know he’s more than capable of taking care of you. Which also means if he lets you get hurt I’m going to have to break his face. “ It might not be something they’ve ever talked about but he knows how Edgar had hurt his sister. He pitied the next person who made her feel like that. “ As long as you’re happy then I’m happy. He would be a damned fool to let someone like you slip through his fingers. “
Guess it was time for him to spill the beans. Taking a moment he looked around eyeing around for any sight of her. Once he was sure he didn’t see her anywhere he pulled out his phone and sent a quick text letting her know that he was standing right outside the gates waiting for her arrival. His phone was quickly tossed back into his pocket. A cigarette was lit and smoke exhaled from his nose before he began.
“ I was headed through town a few days ago and got bumped into by this girl. “ Okay it wasn’t a few days ago, it had only been yesterday but it still felt like days ago since he saw her. “ Her name is K .. Kelly. “ He hated not giving her actual name but he would respect her wishes. Nothing wrong with having a nickname these days. “ I don’t know what it is but she’s just got the most amazing smile, long blonde wavy hair and I swear her voice sounds angelic. “ He probably sounded stupid but he didn’t care. Talking about this with his sister was one thing, anyone else would be pulling teeth right now.

next / previous / beginning
KYRIE: Your voice truly is a gift. It’s beautiful. ASTER: A lot of people say so. KYRIE: But it’s true. Is it wrong to say it? ASTER: Of course not, I love compliments! KYRIE: I wonder, what inspired your lyrics? ASTER: Oh, you know. Life experience, daily observations, a particularly rowdy night at the tavern... Anything and everything is good fodder for a story! I expect one day I’ll write a ballad about these trials. I’ll have to, uh, embellish on some of the details, the parts where I daringly defied all odds, escaped many harrowing deaths, and performed various feats of extraordinary strength and bravery to claim a mighty victory. KYRIE: You mean lie. ASTER: Now, now, we all have our preferred vocabulary. KYRIE: Well, suppose there’s a good chance you needn’t. That could all still happen, after all. ASTER: Certainly! Well, all except that last bit, but really, who needs to know that? It’s not like anyone is keeping score. …Are they? KYRIE: Past winners often experience a period of revelry, if they choose to stick around long enough. Local winners see the most favor. They’re treat like celebrities for a little while, but are ultimately forgotten to the passage of time. ASTER: Nothing really lasts forever, does it? KYRIE: But you know, you could win it all. I don’t see any reason the gods shouldn’t pick you. ASTER: Ah, don’t be silly Your Grace. KYRIE: I’m not— ASTER: I’m not cut out for all this ceremonial business, anyways! But you know, if you ever wanted to learn to play a mean lute, I am certainly your guy. KYRIE: Oh, to be Aster Songleaf’s protégé. ASTER: A position to aspire to! KYRIE: laughs If I’m honest, I hardly think I’m an artist. Rather, I enjoy to listen to others. I admire your talent greatly, but if it’s all the same to you, I think I’m more than happy just being able to hear you perform. As far as talents of my own, well, there is one thing… ASTER: I’m on tenterhooks, Dear Priest! Always keen to see a new parlor trick. KYRIE: It’s a good trick. ASTER: I don’t doubt it, but are you certain you should be out of bed, Your Grace? KYRIE: It’ll be good for me. Join me, won’t you?

Because I am constantly plagued by visions but can't/won't actually write, you get another long-ass Put Me Out Of My Destiny Original Plot Synopsis™.
It's going under a read-more, but you may be interested if you're a Nero enjoyer, and you aren't entirely weary of time travel and multiverses as plot devices, as has become common in the superhero genre.
Though not directly inspired, I'd compare this to Flashpoint (the story where The Flash goes back in time to save his mom, and it has a butterfly effect that basically ruins the entire world). However, the offending party in this story actually played a much more direct hand in fucking up the world.
So, like the aforementioned Flash story, this one begins with Nero waking up one day to find himself in an alternate timeline, in which:
He is Nico's foster brother, raised by Rock Goldstein.
He is Nico's lab assistant at the Research and Development division of the ruling party in Fortuna, apparently led by a king called Rodin, who is believed by many to be Sparda incarnate.
Luckily, Nero still has his powers, which - along with his funny new accent - are a big help toward convincing Nico that something extremely fucky is going on.
Nico catches Nero up on the history of this timeline, specifically on the feats of Emperor Rodin:
His earliest known appearance was after the Temen-ni-gru appeared in Capulet City. Rodin entered the tower, and emerged with Sparda's own Devil Sword, as well as Yamato, the sword Sparda used to cut off the human world from the demon world. He quickly exterminated any remaining demons, and began to develop a following.
His followers claim that he is Sparda incarnate gained further legitimacy about a decade later, when he defeated Mundus, who had returned to the human world to conquer it once more.
He gained actual political power some years later, when he went to Fortuna, and exposed Sanctus's scheme to open hell gates and unleash demons into the human world, and killed him shortly after.
Some years after that, Rodin forced all civilians out of Redgrave City, and turned it into a city-wide prison for his enemies. No one has seen the inside and lived.
What Nero notices on his own, however, is that all statues of the Idol Of Space And Time have been destroyed, which Nico explains was at the king's command. Given that history has changed, Nero concludes that making contact with the Idol is his best bet at figuring out what's going on.
Nico restores a statue, and Nero sacrifices a lot of demon blood to it - probably from the Angelo Knights that serve Rodin - and they make contact with the Idol. She confirms that history has been changed, and that Rodin is responsible. However, she is unsure why Nero suddenly has knowledge of another timeline.
Nero, with the help of Nico and the Idol, begins fighting to reach the king and figure out what's going on, until Nero meets Rodin's highest-ranking fighter - Credo. Unwilling to fight Credo with all of his strength, Nero loses, and is taken into custody.
However, Nero and Nico are freed by none other than Kyrie, who turns out to be some sort of insurgent working against Rodin.
It's also around this point that he learns that Credo and Kyrie's parents are still alive. I also don't think Kyrie and Credo even know Nero in this timeline, which really hurts for him. He couldn't bear to live in a world where Kyrie doesn't love him.
Kyrie informs them of the crueler side of their king - notably, that the Redgrave Prison is home to a demonic tree called the Qliphoth, which fed on the blood of Rodin's enemies, and bore a fruit which granted him a massive power boost.
Kyrie and her allies help Nero get close to Rodin, and his true identity is revealed:
Rodin is a future version of Nero himself.
In Rodin's timeline, a series of events occurs in which Dante's actions lead to Kyrie dying.
So Rodin, using his own power - a replication of Yamato's power - to travel back in time to kill Dante as a child. This same power is the reason Nero was sort of protected from the altered timeline.
He then waited for this timeline's Nero to be conceived, took him to Rock Goldstein, and then waited until the Temen-ni-gru incident to kill Vergil, and take both Yamato and Sparda.
While this idea certainly needs a lot more time to cook, I like it as a means to explore Nero's darker side, to make him face up to the fact that Kyrie is the only thing keeping him from Vergiling harder than Vergil ever did (something one of the writers apparently said once? I don't have a source for that). I think it would be interesting to see Nero evaluate and really define his reasons for fighting beyond protecting Kyrie, seeking approval from his uncle, or seeking the acceptance of his father.
Besides exploring Nero, I think it could also be a good opportunity to flesh out the metaphysics of DMC. I know a lot of people are already sick of multiverses, and I'm not necessarily saying DMC should adopt one, but I think it could hypothetically work. There's already a DMC2 tie-in novel set in an alternate timeline, there's a reboot with a very different continuity, and DMC3 retconned enough things that the established timeline before that game came out could be considered it's own continuity. But if DMC had a multiverse, it raises the question of why the Idol would even care what Rodin had done, unless she just doesn't want anyone but her messing with time?
There's also the question of why, from the perspective of everyone within the altered timeline, Nero regained his memories and powers on that particular day. Since Rodin exists, and by extension, the future exists, considering Nero's time "the present" is pretty arbitrary, so what makes that instance of Nero special?
I don't have the clearest picture of how the story ends, either. I'm thinking maybe at some point Rodin's actions lead to Credo and/or Kyrie dying, which causes him to see how far he's gone and allow Nero to go back in time to save Dante from past Rodin. However, I would like this timeline's Credo to survive, and I really wouldn't want to fridge even an alternate timeline Kyrie.
That's all I have to share at this time, but if you made it this far, thank you for your interest, and have a nice day.
