#Acheron knows him fr fr..

[astrxlfinale]

At this point I feel like Hoyo is subconsciously aware of my very own Caelus oriented joke.

There's no goddamn way I got this text.

With a reply this spirited on top of that.

[endlesslytired]

[caspi-snz]

Know this is unlikely to happen cause lore...but could you do acheron trying to get grandpa yang to sneeze while having him tied up fhsfsfsg

I'm sorry I couldn't find a way to fit my girl A/cheron in there...but ty for the tied up peepaw ideas...fr added 10 millenia to my lifespan alone...

[aixeko]

Why is the first thing that men thinks is sex between ACHERON AND THE NEW KEVIN EXPY. Plus Ellie too?? Leave them ALONE 😭

Acheron literally killed her world's Kevin. And they NEVER had sex. Weirdos, like the first thing you see in Honkai impact is literally the most lesbian shit and you have the audacity to say this...

Elysia is fully lesbian, like that girl is thirsting for women 24/7. it's so damn obvious, people do not have ANY reading comprehension and I can't help but applaud them for their stupidity. "CEO of Elykevin" LEAVE ELLIE ALONEEE THE GIRL JUST CAME BACK TO LIFE LET HER BREATHE. Kevin only works with either SU or DR.MEI (Acheron would not want to be involved with a Kevin expy because again, she did kill her world's Kevin and that would be a traumatic meeting tbh..)

I feel so bad for the original poster, like they just want to show the meaning of their meeting considering their past history. 😭

And no I'm not saying any of this shit because I hate "men" or "straight ship" to hell one of my favourite ships from genshin and hsr is literally Dainlumi, Mavuitano, plus a rare pair between Sunday and Kafka aka Kafday. (Icl I love them more than Kafhime, but Kafhime has more connections, actually met, and has some similar designs, matching fr. But their dynamic is my favourite of all time considering it's close to my OCxKafka hahaha)

Actually scratch the one of my fav for Dainlumi IT IS MY FAVOURITE. They're so doomed but I love them sm. Like the chemistry is there, they were close companions, and they have a clear history with one another as well as blatant admiration and respect.

Although it's going to be expected for Elysia to be in the Trailblazer harem since it already happened in HI3 with the captainverse (fuck that shit) I'm just glad it's not genshin or else this bullshit would be on a much greater scale 🫠

Unless Ellie shows up in Snezhnaya considering it's based on Russia and she did spawn in Russia, making her technically Russian but then again she deadass just spawned there so who knows 😭

Ugh I hate waking up to this, I'm never active on twitter and the one time I checked it backfired soooo hard. I hate the people there, so brain-rotted and so damn judgemental.

But this won't stop me from being so hyped for Ellie expy, it's literally my only repost since the reveal. 100% changing my ENG dub to JP dub because I love Ellie voice in th Japanese dub sooo much, the nostalgia I love how she's sounded.

I'm not much of a Kevin Stan but he's so fine, they knew he would be too powerful with a good name so they had to call the man a basic name. Love him still, love the kaslana sm fr, they're my gojo, can't wait for the TB to meet him since TB has been theorised to be a kaslana haha.

[nanami-is-nanamean]

I like playing hsr-- as my irls say, im a bit of a grind/build player. I can attest to that, because no joke-- i spent an entire year just grinding and farming for materials for my characters. So you could say that im a bit well versed in how these characters work and run and tick. Of course, when you have two obsessions, its kind of inevitable that youd smash them together like dolls so--

Here's JJK characters typecasted as HSR characters

Please note that im more well versed in the characters as units so im gonna typecast them as such— i know jack about their plot and stories so i may or may not make a part two or more lmao

Lets go-- everything is under the cut

OH-- quick note!! Ill be doing the 06 class first because im more familiar with them, and most of my info comes from my own experience playing, and Prydwen my beloved lmao

- - -

Gojo Satoru:

For Gojo—as a unit, i wanna say that hes either the strongest unit currently or some kind of nuts shielder. Its an either or because duh. Bruv is Quite Literally The Strongest and Quite Literally Untouchable.

If were going with the former, aka the strongest—id say that he would be what is currently considered the meta, which is Acheron. I dont have an Acheron, but my friend does and she lent me her account so i can build her Acheron and other units and LET ME TELL YOU. HOLY SHIT. Even unbuilt, Acheron hits like a motherfucker dawg. Its genuinely crazy. Her Technique as well (heh) also lets her oneshot almost anything which is also inline with how he works. Jeez, i should probably go back to building her account...

If were going with the latter, aka nuts shielder ala Infinity, i was thinking either Fu Xuan or Aventurine—but settled on Fu Xuan as it filled out more of what Gojo could do. While she does actually take damage, as she directs damage to herself, she heals it all back which honestly?? Amazing symbolism for Gojo tbh—considering the fact that hes the most important figure in Jujutsu society, everyone would be fucking gunning for him man. And he'd just as easily bounce back and brush it all off with a quick smile and Purple. And speaking of purple—esteemed colleague, that is Just Her Ultimate.

But yeah—Gojo would be either Acheron or Fu Xuan, depending on what aspect of him were focusing on.

Geto Suguru:

I'm gonna admit—this one was a little hard for me because who tf uses summons. And then it hit me.

Dear lord, my boy is just Topaz. Or Jing Yuan. LMAO—

Makes sense tho mechanically—Geto's technique is all about summoning curses to fight. Either for him or with him. Its just that the choice between Topaz and Jing Yuan capitalizes on what sort of fighting styles Geto wants to use. Topaz is more reliant on Numby doing damage, while Jing Yuan can do damage on his own without the help of Lightning Lord. This means then that Topaz is if Geto wants his curses to fight for him, and Jing Yuan is if he wants to fight with his curses.

Also the fact that I considered Sushang for him just because she summons a giant fucking chicken for her ult is. W o w .

Shoko Ieiri:

Dawg. To be honest with you. I think this is gonna be the hardest one for me to typecast unit wise. Because like—Shoko is a heal bot fr fr. And like—thats literally all the Abundance characters man. I CANT JUST SAY "shes every Abundance character" AND CALL IT A DAY. I mean I CAN but I WONT because I have STANDARDS. So I suppose I'll knock off the ones she can't possibly be unit wise.

Bailu is an Instant No. If she can bring people back from the dead Bailu style, JJK would be a WHOLE DIFFERENT STORY. and YEAH YEAH the Gojo/Yuuta thing is different—Gojo was already super dead, she just transferred Yuuta to Gojos body my guy. Not Gallagher, since w've never seen her in a combat situation and we have no idea what pure RCE can do to a curse—and before you say im wrong, nuh uh dawg—youre thinking about Reverse Cursed TECHNIQUE. I'm talking energy. The two are very different. Thats like saying putting the car in reverse is the same as using diesel instead of gas. Luocha is also a no go since, if she can just cast a Simple Domain that heals everyone in range, JJK would be a completely different story. And, as much as this pains me to say it—she cant be Huohuo either, because if her healing people would also replenish their CE, JJK would be a different story—at the very least with more people alive in it lmao

And so. This leaves us with our F2P basic units. Lynx and Natasha. Which... honestly? Its weirdly fitting and cathartic in a strange sort of way. Its guaranteed they'd be there to help because you receive them as units early on in the game—just as guaranteed that Shoko would be there to help and heal any and all sorcerers who come to her. All units need healing, in any way shape and form—without em making sure our teams our alive, we quite literally cannot get thru half the content of the game. I would know, that friend DID NOT build any of their sustains. Constantly fighting for my life until I built Gallagher lmao.

But yeah—unit wise, it does fit. They both mainly are there to give healing and basic support to the units, without drastically buffing them or debuffing their opponents. Theyre just there to make sure the team is alive, and honestly? 🫡 you go babe. heres a free cigarette, on me.

Nanami Kento:

Immediately I knew what the fuck I wanted him to be. Break effect character. Aka, current meta. So, obviously he'd be Boothill and Robin right?? Well—not exactly...

He'd deffo be Boothill thats for sure, but not so much Robin. Nanami's powerset is pretty simple—he focuses on a target and then, depending on his goal and/or amount of cursed energy, proceeds to put a weak point on them of which to hit. He can't be Robin because of how she works—she needs to transform via Ult to deal that optimal break damage and strike weak points despite whatever shes facing not having a fire element weakness. Whereas Nanami can just hit, without needing to transform into something else or needing a cursed tool or something.

For a little bit there, I considered Xueyi but ulimately said no because of her follow up and her being able to attack multiple enemies at once. While yes, I can flavor the follow up as a black flash or something (even though i really shouldn't since black flashes are based off luck and "being in the zone"), the multiple targets thing I really couldn't ignore because we've never seen him attack multiple targets at once—the closest thing we have is him being fast enough and strong enough to one shot curses back to back.

I was left with Sushang and Luka at this point, and ended up with Sushang. I was already settled with Sushang, when I remembered that Luka existed lmao—but decided to give him a shot anyways. I shouldn't have given him that shot because he doesn't fit Nanami as a unit. He's a Nihility "charge" unit—charge in the sense of, he needs to build up a certain stack to properly break and deal damage. When you relate that to Nanami, it doesn't work. Like I said, Nanami is simple and straight-forward, no muss and no fuss. There's a lot of mussing and fussing around with Luka that doesn't mesh well, along with the whole debuff thing Nihility has going—Nanami doesn't do that kind of DOT damage in the series, and doesn't deal too much of a handicap that I could consider it.

Nanami being Boothill and Sushang makes sense to me too. Nanami is a relatively fast person, being able to kind of run on water, fend off dozens of curses at the same time whilst taking minimal damage, and keep up with a Mahito that transformed himself into being really fast, and hits hard—both with the boost and assistance of his technique and without it. Like—he canonically killed Haruta 6 times. Were it not for his Luck Technique, his skull would've been pulverized by the first punch.

Boothill and Sushang's entire deal is to hit hard and hit fast—or at the very least, stay ahead of their opponents in the turn order via Break—Weakness, Super, or otherwise. Boothill's mechanics are a little more complicated than Sushang's but they're relatively simple and tracks with how Nanami works—he can force element weakness (Nanami's CT), hits really good and really hard to those he's focused on/appiled weakness on (nanami's CT again), and is able to clear out multiple enemies at once/inquick succession despite being a single target focus due to how strong and fast he is (nanami's CT and fighting style in general). Sushang's mechanics are much more barebones—she hits hard and she hits fast, which is basically the essence of Nanami in battle.

Haibara Yuu:

Motherfucker dude, this one is EASY—my boy is OBVIOUSLY Pompom. BUT NO WAIT IM BEING FR THO—we barely see him in both the manga and the anime, and I even looked up whether or not he's a playable unit in JJK Cursed Clash or JJK Phantom Parade. He's not there dawg. He's literally just the mascot—😭😭😭 UGYFHBKSFSBHVDVKFHKSD

And as much as I'd love to make assumptions abt his technique and how he works—aka theorize abt the meaning of his name, make educated guesses with the short screentime he had, I don't think I can make a good guess or assumption on how he works.

So yeah. He's Pompom, he's an NPC KHDFJHGSIDKFX—

Rip Haibara, even in death, you don't due nothing other than change the trajectory of everyone's lives via dying BUKJRNLDFJXB

---

Thanks for reading...??? Genuinely feel like doing a cont to this but like—them as HSR character lorewise, or turning them into actual HSR units, or doing the other characters. Its p fun!! Also let me engage with HSR in a diff way other than me logging on, grinding Robin's domain, getting a bunch of shit artifacts and ignoring the main quest LMAO—

[melodic-haze]

It's been a while since I last asked you how your day has been. It's doesn't seem like it's going the best, but I hope it gets a lot better.

Just wondering are you familiar with Hi3 characters? Because there has been "dreams" about a new characters that might be an expy. I don't think I could share here because it's leaks, but I could dm you or put it in the doc if you want.

Also just as I was writing this I saw the Gamescom HSR trailer which teased the Fate collab at the end and thought. Who do you think is gonna be apart of the collab? And what do you think or hope their kits will be like? Just wrote this as a fun little question since you seem to really like Fate.

And as always may your week be blessed and your future pulls even more so (Because if leaks are right I'm absolutely COOKED in 2.5)

-🍎

I usually don't like answering stuff out of order but I HOPE FOR DEAR FUCKING LIFE THEY DON'T BUTCHER THE FATE COLLAB LIKE THEY DID WITH HORIZON???? Dude genuinely the way Aloy could've had SUCH a sick kit if it weren't for Hoyo just genuinely not giving a shit. Anyway I wanted to get that off my chest rq

My day at the time was going horrendously. My day TODAY was fairly good :3c I had one of the last band rehearsals I'll ever have with the lot I'm with so. It's a bit bittersweet but also it's fine, I wasn't all that close compared to the rest of them 🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️

Yesss I'm very familiar with HI3 chrs....or at least the ones before the new gen. I only know Thelema and the yoyo girl with Elysia's eyes but otherwise MEI I LOVE YOU IN EVERY UNIVERSE......ANS ELYSIA MY LOML you'll have to tell me ab the dream though bc idk what you're on about

As for the collab though fr this time, I'm guessing if they're collabing with UNLIMITED BLADE WORKS then Archer being there is a GIGANTIC possibility....and REALLY fucking epic dude I HOPE his ult shows his noble phantasm in the same way Acheron's is displayed as well OHHHH PLEAAAAAASE.......and I HOPE they bring Rin in as well idc if she's just an NPC dude KANA UEDA PLEASE PLEASE PLEAAE GRACE ME WITH YOUR PRESENCE

Genuinely though if someone gets turned into a limited chr, it's GOING to be one of the servants.....but not Berserker, unless they do the thing for Clara with Illya but that. That just takes away Clara's thing. And UBW wasn't really that centred towards her anyway. Him and Gilgamesh would PROBABLY end up as bosses let's be real. If they wanna up the money grab, they'd probably put Saber in as another playable chr, though considering this isn't Stay Night then like idk they probably won't

Me personally tjough? I'm actually mildly disappointed it's UBW they're going with. Yk what I would've LOVED to see? Fate/Grand Order. Their whole thing is going through time and space to fix irregularities to prevent the world from ending, and HSR may as well be one of the places they can go to bc maybe it's a limited-time singularity or smth 🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️ I'm not too fussed though!!! Alternate dimensions and realities are still a thing in UBW anyway (literally HOW would Lancer's spear work otherwise) soooooo......but GOD yeah I adore Fate tbh

I think we're all cooked for the next update though 😭😭😭 but thank you anyway :3c

[ravenlexis]

2.3 spoiler alert!

if you haven't done the story mission and don't wanna be spoiled, scroll away!

okay, i'm gonna start off with what i like about this update:

the relationship between stellaron hunters! it's a small glimpse of their dynamics, but what little we got is cute.

topaz pov came as a surprise and the tension between her and jade? whew...

speaking of, jade is the femme fatale fr fr. the adam and eve theme, snake imageries, i honestly look forward to see her combat gameplay.

siobhan, enough said.

seeing how unhinged the trailblazer is [i chose caelus, so he/him pronouns going forward] from outsiders' perspective is honestly hilarious.

firefly apologising for lying about her identity is def welcome, tho so very late into the story.

the groupchat during sparkle's scavenger hunt! that was a wild group of ppl to put into interaction together.

paying respects to the deceased nameless trio, micah, and gallagher. that made me soft, especially with how pompom reacted to it.

acheron T^T

the scene with sunday at the end... penacony's not over yet?

now my complaints:

this update feels lacking, especially after the crazy roller coaster ride we got from 2.0 to 2.2.

aventurine's convo with boothill was omitted and i am genuinely upset about this. i wanna know how they come to an agreement dang it!

no reunion between ratio and aventurine, which is not just purely from a shipper standpoint. i think it's definitely a logical choice to have aventurine abstain from boarding along topaz, ratio, and jade, but seeing how ratio is exasperated yet willing to stay [well, for maybe a minute] in a room with boothill despite never knowing him makes me think that maybe ratio found them in the room together plotting the downfall of oswaldo and man, that mental image is funny to me.

argenti's voice is missing! again! why is his EN voice not there? this is the second time this happened and it's quite jarring bcs he's the only one with no voice throughout the whole thing.

firefly is so pessimistic about the bomb incident that i suspected she was sparkle for a moment. every single thing that she said was building panic without any real solution until the very end where she proposed to take care of the bomb herself. also, she said to hurry and was panicking but she sure took a while to deliver a monologue. [not an offense to the VA, mind you, this just feels like a writing/pacing issue?]

caelus panicking after being thrown off the ship, lmao. he came into penacony like a shooting star and that's the only thing on my mind as he fell. if i had chosen stelle, that moment with firefly would be brushed off as platonic by the homophobes, which is not cool. trailblazer/firefly ship is literally dependent on who you chose as your mc. [not that i ship them with firefly, but i've seen ppl saying cae/firefly canon while denying stelle/firefly, which is like... no? the only difference is the gender of the mc, their scenes with firefly are literally the same.]

there are still so many loose ends, tho maybe it's bcs we are only given closure on what we should be aware of as the trailblazer. but after the whole thing with aventurine's background, Ena's dream, the galaxy rangers, robin and sunday, boothill confronting aventurine especially [bcs there's topaz there but he chose to find aventurine?]

after all of that and we got nothing else? hopefully everything will be revealed and resolved in the near future.

[crguang]

i forgot to put pics last time. all jokes aside, her design coulda been better fr for me. i believe the second one is fanart but geez, she would of looked really good like this. she’s a interesting character but her design was a miss😔 jade and moze (prob a few more but can’t name them rn) 😿

no you’re definitely right i infinitely prefer her beta design because it sets her apart from other female characters and has a much more professional vibe to it, it screams rich business lady and with the cane?! cunt. they flopped with her final design and reduced a lot of her character to fan service which is why i believe she’s wearing that stupid short dress now, not to mention the whole dom thing. there are still so many questions around her character tho like i also wanna know what that orphanage means to her and why she spends her free time there… idk why hoyo cant take some inspo from zzz its literally another one of their games. the designs there are a lot better while with hsr they copy the same elements for multiple characters and these women could be saved if they just wore PANTS. rappa is a cheap copy of acheron and silver wolf, if she wore baggy pants not only would it look better it would also work with her rapper inspired character, instead she looks like a fool with a dumb name (no shade but like😭 rappa the rapper. fuckkk) moze’s design is not my fav either but maybe him not sticking out too much was part of the point given his personality and job/ability

[ddazzlingblds]

Knocks on my screen. Little people in my gay little phone, I need some help with a decision.

I want to take on another H:SR character! However, I am torn between three choices of muse that all appeal to me:

- Moze: My archetype of character....... my favorite flavor of man. Those who have seen me move Wriothesley back in time know that balancing a good dose of silliness with a rough past is a thing I can juggle. A big mistake when trying to go in-depth about these kinds of characters is mischaracterizing them by tapping too much into their cravings for ''darker topics'' and angst, and risk making them an hodgepodge of edginess and traumas, instead of something that resembles stability after a chaotic life, and by being on the twt side of when Wriothesley was in the spotlight, do I know about it! I still wake up in a cold sweat some nights thinking about a darker, edgier Wriothesley, exactly like Dan Heng when he dreamed about Blade.

BUT: I don't think he'll gain much traction as of right now since he's a relatively new character and a walking spoiler for the newest story quest :( Perhaps with time he'll be seen around more often? Please take him on as a muse...... he's so so so interesting

- Argenti: oh no guys help me I have fallen for another Chivalrous Selfless Man......... I'm down so bad for Argenti, I could very probably bunker down and get obsessed with him for real if I pick him. Another character who balances the true concept of Beauty with a terrible past, so another point for him. He's genuinely such an uplifting and genuinely kind character who seems to always know what to say to show kindness. Knights...... knights characters are in my grasp. I'd need to study the concept of Beauty more and rewatch some old apparitions of his, but I could take him....... also in a fight. But mainly as a muse. He'd be a character study that I would enjoy fr. I also have a little silly idea for his icons already, but we'd have to see.

BUT: no cons in this. I love him.

- Acheron: giggles in lesbian. Acheron is genuinely one of the most interesting characters I have ever seen in H:SR, and I wish I could tear into this like that weird bread gif, but that'd be a long post. All I can say is that she is the truest Nihility character I ever came across, and isn't afraid to show the sadness related to her past and the fate she both choose and was chosen to walk. Once you square her up, her reasonings are clear and aligned with her Path. She's a straightforward but also complex character that fascinates me.

BUT: I have been pointed out that I can get extremely tired of introspection sometimes, and... yeah, there's unfortunately a lot of introspection here. I feel like I would love to tackle on complex stuff and then fry my brain and burn out.

[ravensmusings]

2.2 stuff

This is your spoiler warning, DO NOT READ IF YOU DON'T WANT SPOILERS FOR HSR'S 2.2 UPDATE If your still reading, welcome to my random thoughts and reactions during this update

So... where to begin with this update Death wasn't actually death I guess is a good start. Firefly's alive and I'm just glad we're safe Misha's a meme of a past trailblazer.. (And for the sake of my trailblazer only account I'm counting him as one) This, led me to wondering, how the fuck was he in the hotel at the start. Cuz memes cant leave the dreamscape I assumed it was just something the devs forgot

..... BOY WAS I WRONG BUT WE'LL GET TO THAT LATER

ARGENTI WAS UNEXPECTED AND HILARIOUS. Hope they fix the voice acting bug but still .......I'm mildly pissed they thew my man welt yang into baby jail with Robin. I was hoping that he'd get more screentime And, OH THERE'S THE LOFU. THANKS DAN HENG FOR SUMMONING THEM TO SAVE OUR ASSES Its..... over already? I mean I'm taking the good ending but the ipc and the intelegensia guild helping us this easily is... weird And welt agress with me, now IM SUS Huh, credits, DANG THEY FULL NAMED WELT Why the heck is Acheron ???. Wait she did mention its not her true name.. and cuz we don't know march's its also ??? OH ITS A FAKEOUT HI BLACK SWAN SO MISHA WAS IMPORTANT ....of course her name is Raiden Mei. THere's something in between but its still Raiden Mei. Like Bronya and Seele ig Im glad we didn't actually use the abacus, we might need it even more in the future ....... DID WE JUST RUN OVER SUNDAY WITH THE TRAIN?? DID POMPOM JUST RUN OVER SUNDAY HELL YES ......and now its over fr. Well, that was nice BOOTHILL THREATENING ADVENTURINE WHAT- And that's everything. All of my very confused screaming has been removed for better reading

[circinuus]

OLD PENACONY SPOILERS////

TW graphic violence/gore

wait wait wait wait omg!!!!! like minded minds!!!! im so in love with you!!!!!!!!!! i have similar premises brewing in my (long abandoned) draft. re zero aus are sooo bangers you're so right. aha is always the bastard™ I agree. in my vision aha is also being extra and so theatrical about it (probably saw what the stellaron hunters do and went "hey you know what? I want to do that too!) then proceeds to yoink reader to the universe. reader is now given a "role" (for aha's giggles and all). the tomfoolery includes return by death AND these vague visions funky scary things appearing only in reader's eyes; allegedly aha's "scripts". this includes red glaring texts only visible to reader's eyes (like remember that part in the penacony quest? with the funky red hovering texts?). some texts can be as silly as "heehee! this creature is cute!" hovering over some dead dreamjolt troupe.

other texts can be things like, "oooh!! this one is going to die! die! die!" over firefly's head when you and TB get to the dreamscape hotel lobby with Acheron and black swan (iykyk). but if reader's about to say anything about their predicament, knowledge about the future, or impulsively help or say what they read out loud, reader will "die" one way or another like how subaru does if he says anything about his return by death.

like... exploding-eyes kind of horrible things (walk with me, I was obsessed with SAO alicization too back then). i saw how sparkle likes to stoke trouble just to see how it turns out and how people react, so... I'd expect the aeon who blew up AE and made a worm as their emanator will be more silly goofy coocoo.

ALSO!!!! miss ana I would like to propose that it's all the more reason for aha to do all this re zero messy shenanigans because look at this silly thing I found in the wiki about Masked Fools:

they laugh at heroes for self-righteousness;

you'll eventually get attached and do stupid things to save one of your kind. Even more so, developing some kind of hero-complex like how subaru did. that's beautifully amusing.

kings for their lust of power;

what person doesn't want to try to act god after given "visions", and "second chances"? maybe you can save everyone

lovers for their infatuation

it will be delightfully amusing if you grow infatuated or attached. but I'm going to trust and blame it on aha that they'll giggle when you pine for someone, but you're hesitant in being close because you don't know what's going to happen to him and you if you show obvious favor at the person. and if someone realises your plight, like how sunday starts to notice, aha will just send forth those tragedies like how ana mentioned.... look.... I agree wholeheartedly aha is a little shit™ like that. like the kind of fanfiction reader who likes angst and will only be satisfied of a good ending after the main couple suffers through 800 years of love tragedy and tribulations (aha just like me fr).

and scholars for their overthinking.

The whole point! The stress must be getting to you? Is it? Do you feel the pain behind your eyes? Like it'll burst like colorful balloons and confetti! What if you die again? Do you fear it? What do you think will happen if you make another mistake? Or if you fail? Will it be permanent? What is even the other unknown mistake? How exciting!

"It would be a welcome sight if someone could turn the tables on them."

💀

I have a fic idea, stay with me on this one folks.

I'm a massive Re Zero girlie and I always really liked how Return by Death was handled in the series. I'm also a massive Sunday girlie and the man is in my head rent free 25/8, so I've come up with a half baked idea which I find highly entertaining, but it still needs a lot of work. Here is the gist of it:

The premise is that you, the reader, get summoned to the world of Honkai Star Rail by the Aeon of Elation, Aha. Aha randomly picked a target from our world to torment and gave you the ability Return by Death simply because it wanted to.

In case you do not know, Return by Death allows your soul to travel the river of time backwards to a save point that Subaru (in this case you, the reader) and/or the witch of envy (in this case Aha) deem safe and/or useful. Now, I figured that the Astral Express would end up picking you up along the way but Aha keeps killing you over and over again just for fun. Aha might also wish to mess with other worlds or the people you've started to care for in this universe, which in prompt forces you to kill yourself in order to save your friends from certain doom, forcing you to start from scratch all over again.

I was thinking that Sunday would have something of a cheat code to eventually realize that something is wrong due to his tuning ability. Across your journey you end up developing feelings for Sunday and the feeling would become mutual, but tragedy keeps striking over and over and over again, always dooming someone to die.

Other characters that I'm thinking who would figure out that something was wrong or not right with you would be Welt, Acheron and Sparkle. Honorable mention to Sampo too.

Again, this idea is barely half baked and I basically just stole the plot of Re Zero and applied it to Honkai Star Rail LMAO. I did not intend this fic to be yandere and if I ever did write it, I wanted to do it on my side blog because this main one is only for dark content.

If anyone has any ideas, suggestions or comments, please share them with me. I find this idea to be incredibly entertaining but it would take me a while to actually start the fic. I'd like to at least finish the 2.7 story (at the time of writing this, that patch is not out yet) and maybe work out some kinks here and there.

Thank you for going through this silly idea of mine, mwah mwah ❤️
