#Chapter 7 update

[egophiliac]

we were fucking ROBBED

very specific au thought, silver if he was the shield instead ( read the tags to see explanations )

[north-noire]

so, uh, i got confirmation that i'm on the spectrum recently so i drew this as a silly joke art ft. my sona, henry and charlie because i also headcanoned them to be on it long before i even got assessed

[twst-hottest-takes]

Hmm, my twst hot take, that fits well with the current confusions regarding the dreams I think, is that twst characters are often very wrong about themselves and each other.

Just take Leona for example!! Lilia and Leona himself think that he'll be an awful King. But both Ruggie and Jack think he'd be a good leader and Ruggie in particular thinks he'll be the more favored prince in his dream. Dream Ruggie didn't know Leona, so Leona having a better position didn't do shit for him. But his dream still made Leona a good prince.

Leona and Idia accuse Cater and Trey of using Riddle as a figurehead but everyone that's read book 1 or even better, the manga, know that Riddle was always the one incharge, with the other two trying to minimize the damage.

Deuce's dream portrays that he wants to live in a might makes right world but every other Deuce event has proven this wrong!!! He wants to go into law inforcement to make his mom proud.

Hell even back in Book 3 it was clear that you can't even trust overblot memories coz Azul was so convinced that the Twins were gonna leave him (the animated video literally has it as the last step that caused his overblot) but in game the Twins were just worried about him and trying to stop him from using him UM.

Basically twst is filled with contradictory information about characters because these boys neither like nor trust each other and you can't believe shit about dreams or opinions (because even Rooks big choice is then made into a regret in Book 7 in think)

This is a good contribution to this conversation.

There's a possibility that a lot of the dreams are influenced by Malleus' perception of what he thinks the others want as well. For example he might know that Leona wants to be king, so that's the dream he gives to him. But Leona has the ultimate say in what happens in his dream so his underlying insecurities and self perception turn that dream into more or less a nightmare because he fears being unworthy (or so I am now under the impression of).

I could just be blowing fluff, but I do think you're onto something here, Anon. I would really like part of what brings Malleus back from the edge to be him realizing that people's deepest desires don't always equate to happiness and if the others manage to find the value of themselves in that as well that's a bonus! We're still just speculating, but if any of this comes to fruition we might not be wasting as much time with all these dreams as I've thought.

Thank you for your take!

Ruggie and Jack both having this admiration for Leona and wanting to see the best in him is painful in the best kind of way. Idolisation from Jack was only to be expected, considering Leona was his whole reason for coming to NRC in the first place, but Ruggie also has this - almost more so than Jack, if his dream is any indication.

The whole basis of his dream is "Prince Leona is kind and generous and amazing, he built this school with free food for everyone and improved life for the impoverished". Which tells us a lot about how he feels about Leona. On some level, Ruggie really believes that Leona would improve life in the Savannah if only he were listened to.

These two have so much faith in his abilities, that Leona could be truly great. Jack had his rose-tinted view of him shattered, but he was only so disappointed because he had such an awe of his skills. Despite everything that happened between them, Ruggie's perfect dreamworld is built around just how much positive change Leona could make in his country - Leona is specifically stated to be more popular than his brother because of this.

And Leona.... just doesn't have this kind of faith in himself. He believes nothing he does matters, because he was born second and he will be second, no matter what amazing skills he has or how many ideas he comes up with for improving the country. He doesn't want to put the effort in anymore, because it'll be too painful to fail again. Nobody ever bothers listening, so why even try?

Chapter 7: The Memories

[nobody3xe]

YOURE TELLING ME THIS IS MALLEUS’S MOTHER HOLYFUCKINGSHITWGATTHEFUCKWHYISSHESOSHOTTT

[chaellooo]

Made an animatic based on a part from a garsako fanfic titled "Twisted Fate" by Tempest_Blue, on Chapter 5.

https://archiveofourown.org/works/32245522/chapters/79918117

Based on this part:

Recommend 10/10!! AGH the writing pictures the scenarios so well I giggled alot. Imo it's THE garsako fanfic, perfect fic if you want to see some form of Ninjago prequel about the Elemental Alliance (the fic is the main reason Im begging for lego to make an Elemental Alliance origins spinoff series starring the ninjas' parents lol). Also. If you're a garmasimp, this fanfic's for you. He's SO flirty and fINEEE in this fic, and Misako?? What a baddie

[uniquethingtastemaker]

Oh! I just had a fanfic fanfic idea for Silver. I love Silver especially in Chapter 7. He’s amazing. So sweet and brave. Our sleepy boi. Anyway! My idea:

Reader is having a nightmare and Silver walks into it via his unique magic by accident. Silver does what he does best, protects u, and gives u some comfort.

It would be really cute if Reader has reoccurring nightmares and they get close that way. Ahhhhh! So adorable!! Maybe I’ll write it or maybe someone will like the idea enough to pick it up lol.

I already have my hands full with three Vil fanfics. I just rotate between them whenever I need a break from one of them lol

[sassyfever]

I couldn't sleep because I kept thinking about this scene; so I doodled this all night instead of sleeping

[tartppola]

The final story update to the event is this Thursday. In the meantime, Seph looks rad in his new outfit.

[naiveff7]

I wanted to give them joke outfits to go with their joke weapons since they added them to the game. Based on the weapons, I chose stereotypical kid clothes for Sephiroth, a clown suit for Glenn (RIP), FCLORPing outfit for Lucia and pool wear with a bonus water pistol for Matt.

Bonus adult Seph crudely drawn in the same outfit below the cut.

When I saw you, I fell in love I had to smile because you knew it

[sarathrwizard]

I have a question when will there be a chapter 7 of the I Care comic?

I'm not sure. I'm still working on chapter 6 part 2, but I would say chapter 7 will probably come out February or March of next year. (2025) It takes about a month to draw each chapter part. ;-;

But if you where asking about chapter 6 part 2, then hopefully it will be out soon! :D

I hope you have a beautiful day! Lord bless you, @spartens24ak13! 💜

One of this update’s highlights is how clearly they establish that robot/humanoid Ortho and organic/deceased/phantom Ortho are BOTH loved, individually, as their own respective people and that humanoid Ortho isn’t just a replacement, he’s not a fake.

The worry from the Shroud parents over Ortho while he was in Malleus’ domain expansion and Idia rejecting dream Ortho by saying he only has two little brothers 🥺 I am so normal about this. Probably one of my favorite updates in chapter 7 so far.
