[egophiliac]

thank you for blessing us with twst pokemon au i appreciate it greatly. if i may ask you a question

how does one read book 7 without selling their soul to the deep dark web. i've been wanting to read the other parts for a while but i can't find a place with all the chapters. i've seen translations on youtube but i don't think they have all of them?

(also why'd you government name mickey like that on your last post what did he do)

thank you! :D

I'm not really sure where to find up-to-date main story translations, so opening it up to the floor for other people to chime in! for reference, the latest release in JP was episode 7 chapter 6 on December 11th, which covered 7-88 through 7-100. fingers crossed for more in February...but that's where we're at right now!

(Michael knows what he did)

so, a batfam as hsr paths and types and maybe some backstory they might have in the universe

Part 1 of ???

I'll start with Gotham being something like Luofu or Penacony, they aren't really a planet, but they fly around, my guess because of the Court of Owls they're more on the Abundance path, as dudes were searching for eternal life, and also Talons fit abominations pretty well, or they were a mining ship, that got rich for some time but now they have like incredible crime-rate and a difference between rich and poor to cause another great october revolution, but alas. maybe they're on the Beauty or Elation path, they also aren't a part of IPC, but this one is weird, so don't worry

Then let's go to my favorite, Dick. He was born on a ship traveling the universe, performing life, circus, so basically he has no roots or home other that the ship. Most Carnies are following or blessed by Elation, so Dick grew up around mentions of Aha eon and Fools, also probably somehow connected to Masked Fools (and honestly this way for Dick to be, like how he deals with the world, being constantly happy as a pretend, keeping laughter to fight the misery, a light and a hope or whatever, I'm sure he has his mask somewhere), but because elation isn't a playable path in hsr, we need something else for Dick. I'm actually torn between Abundance and Preservation for him. Abundance blesses selfless, altruistic and healers (though ok Dick isn't really a healer of the party, I guess), and Preservation is for patient, sacrificial and proactive, they act like support with a shield role. Let's stick with Preservation. As for the type, also torn between lighting and physical. maybe we can pull Dan Heng and make his Robin physical with healing (hey, Natasha), and as Nightwing he's Preservation and Lighting, so let's stick with that.

So the story, they come to Gotham, his parents die, Bruce takes him in and Dick stays with him on Gotham.

let's move to Bruce then. He's either on Nihility, Erudition or Destruction path. actually Erudition fits most Bats, so let's stick with Nihility for Bruce, because fighting crime in Gotham is pretty meaningless thing. It also puts a bunch of DoT (Damage over time). I also think he should have Quantum type of damage, once again, because it gives a neat debuffs. so as for his life, his family was killed the same way, as in canon, then he run away from home and traversed the universe, maybe even with trailblazers, he studied blade and all that to become Batman, to help Gotham. Also just thought that now Gotham being a ship and it makes so much more sense to call her a She.

actually @brucewaynehater101 suggested for dc having their own aeons, or some entities, so Lady Gotham might be really cool, but I'm probably not in the mood for recreating a whole world building for this silly small thing that's already way too long

anyway, I'm sorta tired of thinking for now, so let's finish with Alfred being Hunt with Ice type of damage, because of his spy bg and because he has such vibes.

anyway, strike me with who to do next or your ideas about other characters, ye. don't donate to gacha games, good luck in pulling, I want Avanturine rerun

[tartagliaxx]

Okay, okay, I have something to comfort you despite scaring you last night. This is a gacha game, right? Here some people (not me, I'm poor) buy the characters, that's why they can't nerf a character once they released that character (what happened with Beidou) its literally illegal.

My point is, they earn money with the characters and good money, so killing a certain playable character wouldn't be a wise move, you know? The fans wouldn't be happy playing with a dead character in their teams.

Spoiler

That's why La Signora wasn't released, simple as it. Now, the characters can be hurt, can have red flags all over their faces, can have half of their bodies broken but they won't die if they're playable (I'm trying to be as logical as possible in here)

I enjoy how dark the story is getting, yes, but please Mihoyo, don't kill my babies 🥺

Okay, that was "attempt to comfort you #1" sbbdbdbd I'll send some hearts to you too 💕💕💕💕

🤷🏻‍♀️ Anon

yes... that's logical, yes? how can you play as a character when they're already dead? but the thing is... mhy has done it before (see honkai) and they will certainly do it again 🤡 you know... i was once like you... i tried to run away from reality and pretend that everything was okay... but now... now i can no longer avoid the truth. alas, such is the fate of every simp for a game made by a ruthless company...

i do appreciate the attempt and the hearts but it's too late. i have been swallowed by my sadness blanket and i am eternally in tears and living in fear that one day, i'll wake up and childe, that mf, is dead.

lilia as a vampire

@torihimemiya13 asked: Hey, I hope it isn't to much to ask for you to do either a Lilia one shot or headcannon of him being a vampire. (There's a theory that he is one)

i decided to do this as a hc cuz i feel like i can cover more things -v- but i feel like that’s a very interesting concept 0-0 and also these headcanons are dark lol i was just reading a yandere-esque webtoon a while ago so maybe it affected my writing lolol

♡

it was around 1/2 in the morning when you decided to go out from your room (in the diasomnia dorms) to go get a glass of water but that’s when you heard something crash from the dark hallways illuminated only the moon coming from out the window

you approached closer from the source of the crash and as you stepped closer, you heard whimpering and pleads of...pain

“no.....no....senpai please...!” 

you heard a familiar voice....it belonged to lilia..?

“oh this won’t do at all.” you then heard a painful, ear-piercing scream. you ran towards the source of the sound and there in the end of the hallway was a student collapsed on the floor and lilia...covered in blood

“s-senpai...?” his eyes widened and slowly turned his head to you, a smile evident on his face

his usual, normal smile (which you would find heartwarming at times) except...his face was splattered with blood

“(y/n)! what are you doing out so late?!” he spoke to you in his usual cheery tone, ignoring the fact that there was blood on his face, hands, and floor

“s-senpai...your...you..!” you panicked. what the hell was going on? what did he do?!

“oh...this? ignore it. answer my question (y/n), what are you doing out so late?”

you ran. you ran as fast as your legs could take you. down and around the hallways. however you reached a dead end. lilia’s voice was just right behind you. 

you felt a hand grab you and shoved you to the wall

“damn it (y/n)...i never knew your blood smelled this...sweet.” he grinned and you could see his fangs covered in blood

you knew he had fangs, so did malleus and sebek...but it couldn’t be. there was no way he was a vampire.

“please don’t hurt me!” you whimpered, slowly slipping down and collapsed on the floor

“oh my dear, sweet (y/n). i will never hurt you.” he smiled. “however, i can’t let you go after you saw what i did, my sweet.” his face lingered near your collarbone. 

“what about a deal?”

“i’ll stop hurting all these students and i promise i won’t hurt you. all i want in return is for you, precious doll, is to not tell anyone what you saw. and of course, i still need something to feed on.”

he smirked. “so from now on you’ll be...my late night snack each night.” 

you felt tears prick your eyes. you really didn’t want other students to be harmed, but at the same time....you also didn’t want to be his. 

“well...?” “fine...”

from that night onwards, it’s been the same routine every night for you. meet him at that same hallway at 2 am sharp, and let him feed on you.

it depended on his mood really, sometimes it was painful like being stabbed with a sword, but sometimes it hurt less than usual

you hated it. you hated every single minute of it. you wanted to escape. and you had a plan. 

“ah! another customer! tell me what it is i can do for you, (y/n).” your tired, lifeless eyes met those of azul ashengrotto. 

“i want a contract....please....just help me escape”

let’s just hope...that the contract worked

but alas, lilia was one step ahead of you

and little did you know, he already made a contract with azul. the conditions?

you were never able to leave his side. in any way possible. so you were trapped in lilia’s little web. for eternity. 

♡

why was this so dark eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee maybe imma write something cute and floofy after this omo and also MALLEUS AND SEBEK CARDS OUT TOMORROW WOOOOP,, i pray to the gacha lords that luck will be on my side tmrw ;-;

love, a♕

[thessaliah]

I feel like Olga is a bit more likely to be playable than Romani, because meeting Romani himself again feels like it can only happen at the very end when Guda finally feels proud of themselves, but the conflict with Olga can be resolved from LB7 and onwards depending on the final boss and the plot. If they make him playable, I want a Solomon with a Romani ascension (like Waver) as a reward for clearing the story. But maybe not because they love gacha too much...

If this were Granblue, they would be free “clear-this-chapter-of-the-story” units with a Broken Gacha version. But alas this isn’t Granblue, or we should have gotten free versions of Holmes, Da Vinci, and Nemo (and Hinako, Qin, Ophelia, Kadoc, Pepe, Kirschtaria,Merlin, so on...). King Hassan was going to be the “Eternal” of the game (grindable SSR) and they axed that. :(

I’m not sure if either will be playable, just like Kirschtaria they might remain npcs despite having a “playable sprite.” However, I think Solomon will be playable in Arcade, though (whether is first or exclusively for a while). My bones tell me this. When the Time Temple finale drops there, he’ll be the helper + gacha character.

Epic 7 - General Stuff

 So, Epic 7 is still getting updates and most of it seems on the right track. Looking forward to the automaton tower changers because so far, it is rather easy and all I do is wait for the monthly gold bonus buff day and blitz through the tower on that day. Hopefully, that will make things more fun.

Have been using my arena flags but didn’t really put much effort into PVP in a while, admittedly, nor in PVE. In RTA, I just did enough to get the Faithless Lidica skin even though I do not have her. It is not that RTA is not fun but I just need better gear at this point. Looking forward to the F.Ceci skin though, hope it is good. The Elena skin was gorgeous so hoping for something similar.

The one thing I am doing is working towards fast teams for Hunt. I completed a three man Banshee 13 team with Vivienne, Bellona and Baiken. Baiken I had to raise and mola for this purpose. Thankfully, Bellona and Vivienne were ready from my quick Azu team and didn’t require regearing  or additional molas since their relevant skills were already maxed.

Next is still Wyvern, which is ironic since that one I was trying first but alas, I just lack the gear. It is why I went for Azu in order to get the rage sets for Sigret and now Baiken because that drastically lowers the stat threshold. The version I like the most is the rather elegant Sinful Angelica, Sigret, Karin and SSB one but that requires an SSB who is able to clear the first wave with her S3 and counter on the first round and that  is...hard to reach that level of stats. Next to rather impressive offensive stats like crit chance (85%), crit dmg (roughly 320%) and ATK (around 4200) she also wants over 180 speed. She needs speed set for that and I just don’t have that. Ironically, the place where I have to farm is wyvern so, not super useful.

Crafting gear is a bit of a hassle, unfortunately. Too much RNG with way too many resources needed. I could live with it if we got more charms, tbh. Game needs to increase the amount of charms we get. Maybe lower the cost of the charms which require the arena currency? Mainly because we get one set of arena gear per season so that is a few weeks where we can’t buy charms but instead have to save stuff for the gear. Ring and necklace gears are more manageable in that regard. Of course, your gold is drained very fast when crafting or leveling your gear, so, that can be a problem as well but you get gold by running the hunts so that also takes care of the getting the crafting material stuff, whereas charms drop a lot more rarely there.

So I dunno, feels like there is one step/factor too many. I get that this is a gacha game with all the unfortunate systems that entails but still.

As for units, I have to say, the unit that was most fun to build and use was Ravi. She has a rather unfortunate design and I really wish she had more clothes but she is just so much fun to use in arena or RTA. It is just so satisfying when she counters and stuns people, on top of dealing a ton of damage. The unfortunate part about her is that she is fire and there are not that many earth units running around in PVP and ice units have some of the most meta units.

ML Krau has also been in constant use and since I got Tempest Surin, I have been using her a lot as well.

I haven’t really used Landy a lot, nor her sister whose name escapes me atm. Celine got the buff she needed for her job which was neat but she still has a rather limited usage overall. ML Iseria was, unfortunately, a disappointment. I just don’t really know how to use her as her skillset is so awkward. Either as a debuffer or a anti dodge dmg dealer but she is doing both halfheartedly and focusing on either one means ignoring half her utility. Really hoping she gets a buff or an EE.

ML Aramintha is coming (back?) to Mystic Summons and I did regret swapping her for J.Kise so, I think, unwise though it may be if the next new ML unit is amazing, I will try to get her. I am currently mostly out of molas, and I have still so many units who just want molas, so not sure if I can build her once I get her.

The good thing is that I already have enough of those ML coins to buy an ML 5 star. Unfortunately, I missed the window on Ruele and currently it is either  J.Kise or ML Ken, so, have to wait a while until a unit comes where I would get them. Presumably, it will take an eternity until Ruele comes again, so probably gonna for ML Luluca or maybe Riolet? Arby is still an excellent unit but 1. he is, by now, very dealable by pretty much everyone as there are a lot of ways to counter/deal with him  so he is no longer the almost unstoppable unit he once was and 2. I still don’t like him so, probably gonna wait for a unit I like more. But seeing how the coin shop seems to rotate the units so rarely, will probably take years at this point, lol. Really hope they overwork the coin shop, tbh. I am one of the few lucky (well, “lucky”) ones in that i got ML 5 dupes which is better than no ML 5s but not as good as getting new ML 5s, so I can actually see the ML coinshop but to get anything but the ML 5 star is a waste of the coins, so 90 % of the shop is a joke. Even the molas, the rarest resource in the game, is not worth giving up a certain ML 5 star pull. But most people can’t even see either shop. I can’t see the normal coin shop. I get that it is for whales who dumped so much money and have all the summons so many times, but still, wish 4 stars would also drop coins.

So yeah, game is still fun, playing it daily, building units. Abyss is fun but so hard, so i can only try it during unequip because it often requires specific units geared in a specific way and you can’t hit that without reshuffling gear around and since you need gold so desperately for gear and stuff, it is just too expensive to massively move gear around.

▨ !!

Send ▨ for the mun & muse’s opinion of your muse.

"To tell you the truth I’m really jealous of her skin!”

“How’s it possible for a pirate to bare her babongles 24/7 without getting burnt? I swear sunscreen didn’t exist back in the 1500s!!”

“The facial scar is super edgy though. Bold of her to have it running across her whole face, so I’ll forgive her for having a curvier figure than mine too!”

“Actually, we’d probably get twice as many dates if we went out together because of our different aesthetics! Grown women versus innocent waif, you know what I mean?”

“Hey! Since we’ve found the One Piece already, can we sail to Granblu Fanta Sea now?!”

queen of doors

my QP farming empress, my FP gathering goddess, my Caster killer Exalted--

okay fgo jokes aside i have not played extella and the only lore i know about francis drake is that 1) pirate 2) queen 3) okeanos with scattered trivia here and there. i go more for the oji-sans in game, y’know? so i didn’t pay her any attention. 

but then the gacha gods blessed me with her one day so i raised her up and now she’s on my team for like, eternity. rider artoria’s got nothing on her haha sorry artoria fans and she’s got that super chill, super cool older sister vibe i wish i had in my own sister but alas here i am being eldest child. she was really fun to read about in okeanos too (both NA and JPN), and i love her entire attitude towards life, it’s bold but chill and still gets the job done. 

that’s a very freeing way to live i think, and maybe a little scary, but i admire her spunk for that. it just feels like everything wrong will work out anyhow if you’re on her crew, yanno what i mean?
