Thenamesh incorrect quotes part two

Part one

Thena: Since we're in a relationship now, your clothes are my clothes too. Don't ask me why I have your shirt on, this is our shirt.

Gilgamesh: Fine, but when I come strutting in with your fuzzy socks I don't want to hear shit.

Gilgamesh walking into the kitchen and seeing all of the limes in the house peeled: Thena, I love you but, what the h-e-double FUCK.

Thena, sipping coffee happily: I love you too :)

Thena: Let’s watch Sharkboy and Lavagirl.

Gilgamesh: Okay.

Thena, nonchalantly: And make out during the scary parts.

Gilgamesh: Th-

Gilgamesh: The scary parts.

Gilgamesh: Of Sharkboy and Lavagirl.

Thena: *closes a cabinet*

*a crash is heard behind the cabinet door*

Gilgamesh: What was that?

Thena: The sound of someone else's problem.

Gilgamesh: I want to be with you for the rest of my life.

Thena: Damn, that sounds like a marriage proposal.

Gilgamesh, getting down on one knee: That's 'cause it is.

Thena, tending to Gilgamesh’s wounds: How would you rate your pain?

Gilgamesh: Zero stars. Would NOT recommend.

*Thena and Gilgamesh are holding hands*

Kingo: Why are you two holding hands?

Thena: Studies show that holding hands can reduce stress.

Kingo: Oh, I thought you two were dating or something.

Gilgamesh: We are. We’re also just really fucking stressed.

Gilgamesh: What are you writing?

Thena: The government wants to know what kind of weapons we have in the house. I'm letting them know it's private information.

Gilgamesh, looking over Thena’s shoulder: This just says “fuck around and find out” in calligraphy.

*in some friends to lovers au or something*

Gilgamesh: I thought that maybe-

Thena: *Cuts Gilgamesh off by kissing him*

Gilgamesh: -you’d love me again.

Thena: Who says I stopped?

Kingo: Awwwww!

Gilgamesh:

Thena:

Kingo: I ruined the moment.

*Thenamesh is at IKEA*

Gilgamesh: *staring at all the desks*

Thena: *walks up behind him* What are you doing?

Gilgamesh: I’m wondering which one of these you’d look best pinned aga-

Thena: We can do that tomorrow.

Ajak: *sits down*

Thena: I AM NOT IN LOVE WITH GILGAMESH!

Ajak: …

Ajak: I was going to ask you if you wanted an empanada-

Ajak, internally: She’s down bAD.

Gilgamesh: What the FUCK is this?!?

Thena, sitting down, surrounded by corpses and smiling: I won Mafia, that’s what.

Thena: *Sees someone doing stupid shit*

Thena: What an idiot.

Thena: *Realizes it's Gilgamesh*

Thena: Wait, that's MY idiot!

Thena: My partner must be top of the line, graceful, organized-

Gilgamesh: Hey guys! I- *trips*

Thena:

Thena: I want that one.

Computer: Please enter a password.

Thena: *Types in Gilgamesh*

Computer: Your password is too weak.

Thena: You wanna saY THAT AGAIN-

Thena with post-Mahd Wr’ry confusion, pouring water into the ocean: The ocean is thirsty.

Gilgamesh: …

Gilgamesh: Sorry I’m late, I was doing things.

Thena: Hi, I’m ‘things’.

Gilgamesh, trying to reach something: Thena, could you give me a hand?

Thena: Sure.

Thena: *Holds his hand*

Gilgamesh, blushing: Adorable, but that’s not what I meant.

Thena: Relationships should be 50/50. Gilgamesh cooks us dinner while I sit on the kitchen counter looking pretty.

Ajak: Hey Gilgamesh, are you free on Friday? Around 8pm?

Gilgamesh: Yeah.

Ajak: Thena?

Thena: I’m free.

Ajak: Well, I’m not. You two go enjoy your date! *Leaves*

Gilgamesh: Did she just-

[not-shamhat]

I do have a question. If Enkidu is kinda evil, then what's Gilgamesh? This probably a bad question. Sorry...

Aside from the shit he does in Tablet I, Gil in canon is generally too naive and childish to be evil in the least. He’s actually pretty friendly and forgiving too, since he pardoned Aga for literally laying siege to Uruk, and empathised with Humbaba enough to want to set him free. And he’s always out playing with his friends, whom he trusts very deeply, and he also held a feast for Uruk’s orphans to celebrate slaying Gugalanna.

So yeah, CanonGil’s actually pretty nice even before his journey. 

Enkidu is a born sociopath however. Explains why he gets along with the senators but Gil doesn’t.

I’m almost done, but...

Okay, when I started up my game, I went to the basement of Castle of Bal and fought tons of Objet d'Art enemies. Like, I managed to master a number of jobs for a few party members, including Mime and Red Mage, which take 999 ABP to fully master (well, Mime only has one level to master which takes 999 ABP and Red Mage requires 999 ABP to fully master at level 4). I was there for quite some time, having Krile or Bartz (my fastest attackers) use Level 5 Death to instantly kill any enemies that appear. I only left to buy more Elixirs when someone got low on MP.

Eventually, after mastering so many Jobs and leveling up a number of times, I left. But before going into the Rift, I tracked down the remaining two Blue Magics, Dark Spark and Transfusion. I was just about to go into the Rift before I remembered Bahamut and tracked him down. Surprisingly, he wasn’t super difficult to beat, but I still had to remain mindful and plan carefully. But I managed to defeat him.

And with that, I stocked up on items, mainly ethers, Tents, and Hi-Potions before finally entering the Rift. I also switched everyone back to Freelancer so I can have the stat boosts from the jobs they mastered without the stat drops. I went through with no issues before encountering Calofisteri. I was somewhat struggling at first, since she hit Lenna, my main magic damage dealer, with Stop, so I had to attack with what I had until she returned. Nevertheless, I managed to deal quite a bit of damage, despite Calofisteri healing and casting Regen and Shell on herself (by reflecting the spells off my party), but when Lenna returned, she Dispelled her buffs just in time for the others to beat her.

I continued on, starting to run low on MP, so I had to ration my ethers and Elixirs carefully. I went on further, walking past the Omega superboss and reached the Library, where I fought Apanda. I made great use of Ifrit, making the battle a cakewalk. I continued on until I reached the Castle, where I accidentally found myself fighting Atle Roite/Jura Aervis. Not one, but three of them. One when I entered a cells and the other two when I tried to leave. And before I was able to heal and restore my MP, I found myself fighting Catastrophe. Though I was able to make the battle easy by using Mighty Guard with Carbuncle.

After beating him and freeing the “prisoner”, I decided to speak with Azulmagia. I easily defeated him by having Bartz use Self-Destruct. After Azulmagia learned the ability, he used it on Faris, killing him instantly (though he also took Faris out in the process). With the Save Point, I used my Tents and saved the game before reaching the Throne Room and fighting Halicarnassus. He really wasn’t all that hard, since I mostly had the party gifted with Reflect by Carbuncle and at Lenna use -aga spells on all of them, hitting Halicarnassus for quite a bit of damage.

After beating him, I went on and reached Twintania and... I lost. But I was able to reload the automatic Quicksave that occured when I entered the room. When I tried again, I used Carbuncle on the party and just did nothing but use magic, either reflecting magic off the party onto Twintania, or directly hitting Twintania with magic, causing him to counter with Mega Flare, which wound up getting reflected back onto it.

At this point, I was really starting to run low on MP and I was fresh out of ethers as I entered the Last Floor. Gilgamesh was a quick fight, since he wasn’t really a boss fight. As I continued on, I quickly found myself hating Mindflayers, since no matter what I do, whether I use physical or magical attacks, they counter with Mind Blast, making battles take longer than they should. I eventually managed to make my way to the end, finding Necroprobe before engaging him in battle... where I lost because of Reflect on the Barrier.

When I tried again, I did the same tactic as with Twintania. Lenna would use magic on the party, which would hit the Barrier. But Krile and Bartz would use physical attack (Bartz and Lenna occasionally healing) while Faris summoned Bahamut. Once the Barrier was down, I focused on Necroprobe, able to deal hefty damage before Gilgamesh came in and finished him off. I saved the game and used a few more Tents so that everyone was at full HP and MP before going to fight Exdeath. I also saved while I was there.

First phase wasn’t too difficult. It was the right amount of challenging and I was able to fight comfortably. But for the second... Not so much... I spent quite a bit of time attacking the front part, the one the stuck out forward the most, taking quite a bit of time before I finally took it out. But by that point, I was starting to lose ground, even more so when it used Grand Cross. In the end, I lost. When I reloaded my Save and adjusted a few things, mainly giving Bartz and Sing ability while Krile got the White Magic and Lenna got the Dualcast ability. And yet, I got a game over in even shorter time against the second phase, partially due to Grand Cross. I was hoping Hero’s Rime would give me the edge I need, but no. It didn’t feel like it helped all that much, even against Exdeath. So I decided to leave, fighting my way back to the entrance, and stopped off at Carwen with intent to grind a bit before tackling Exdeath again. I might try again when everyone is level 50, since they’re at about 43 right now with Lenna being level 41.

Gilgamec climbed up on the rampart after the officer of Unug. His radiance overwhelmed Kulaba's young and old. He armed Unug's able-bodied men with battle maces and stationed them on the causeway at the city gate's door. Only Enkidu went out through the city gate. Gilgamec leaned out over the rampart. Looking up, Aga saw him: "Slave, is that man your king?"

his radiance overwhelmed Kulaba's young and old

that is it here is the reason why Gilgamesh was still king even after having his reputation dropped to negatives

Reloading my save, I went to Drakenvale and wandered around until I found Golem, who promptly ran away. But I found him again at the end of the dungeon as he was getting attacked who two dragons. Being the level I was at, it didn’t take much to save him, netting me the Golem Summon. After that, I moved on to the Sealed Castle and walked back and forth, fighting Shield Dragons. Normally, they’d be an issue, but with Krile Controlling them, they fell easily, though they took a lot of punishment before dying. I may have defeated, like, 15 to 20 Shield Dragons before leaving. But I switched Lenna to Time Mage and leveled her job up twice before leaving.

I then made my way to the Gil Cave, but not before using Float on the entire party in case I ran into a Gil Turtle. However, it wasn’t until I went off the main path and found that area where you can get gil just by walking that I encountered one. However, it decimated my party and despite my best efforts, I could neither defeat nor run from it, so I was forced to give up.

With nothing else to do, I finally went to Exdeath’s Castle and just went through until reaching the dead end, seeing Kelger finally pass on, but not before commanding the other Lupines to assist Bartz and the others. I won’t lie, the true Exdeath’s Castle was... something. Somewhat unnerving, even. Regardless, I powered through, leaving no treasure unopened. I even managed to get the Lv. 2 Old Blue Magic, though I wasn’t able to get Off-Guard.

I eventually managed to find Carbuncle and I was able to defeat it instantly with Catoblepas’ Demon Eye. After that, I went on and encountered Gilgamesh and did battle. He wasn’t too difficult, just a bit of a damage sponge. Eventually, he went into his second form, allowing me to steal the Genji Helm from him just before he was banished by Exdeath.

I went on further and fought with Exdeath. Again, he wasn’t hard, just a massive damage sponge. I also used Carbuncle to cast Reflect on the party to reflect Exdeath’s magic attacks. I also used Golem to protect the party against his physical attacks. Much of the battle was just Bartz using 1000 Needles while Lenna used the -aga spells. Sometimes, I had her use the magic on the entire party, just hoping the damage would stack and be stronger. Faris would swap between attacking and using Summons while Krile just attacked.

After defeating Exdeath, the party woke up in the original world it seems. I made a beeline to Castle Tycoon, leaving when the feast started. It didn’t take much time before I found Boko and Koko before leaving with the former. Before long, I fell into a pit, waiting until Faris came by to pull Bartz, Krile, and Boko up. I continued on further until reaching Ghido’s Cave (Wait... Something not right here...), but saved the game before turning it off.

Also, just before I fought against Exdeath, I got into another battle with a random enemy, which allowed Faris to fully master Thief, causing me to switch her back to Summoner.
