[lu-is-not-ok]

I feel like I got hit with a shotgun.

I think I should be allowed to hunt Hong Lu for sport.

[bush-anon]

Don't listen to this man this was a ✨PERFECT✨ financial decision.

I'm not allowed to make purchases I think

WIP for a Prince of the Parade Sancho AU! Perspective is a bitch lol The idea here is that she'd sorta be putting on a show for the guests at La Manchaland. Think those campy, pretty cheesy (but endearing) low budget performances at amusement parks. It'd be full "I shall bring you down, foul villain!" and audience interaction where they have to cheer for the hero to make them win. She, of course, thinks this is incredibly juvenile and cringe (but couldn't break the hearts of the kids in the audience). There'd be some pretty painfully bad acting at the start, but I think she'd get the hang of it.

She might think the roleplay is fun, jut a bit.

Some thoughts from LCB Regular Checkup. Spoilers below.

I'm a big fan of how Pride's theme of self-deception played a part in Hohenheim's dungeon; his initial seeming control over himself and ability to simply hurry the Sinners through the dungeon giving way to the realization that no, his censorship of his memories and of the facts therein is simply a greater part of the theme; his refusal to acknowledge the pain he's in and desire to simply paper it over and play up his own arrogance to avoid thinking about his humanity.

Absolutely hilarious to see Faust have someone that she genuinely dislikes. Faust's constant need to point out that he's not better than her really re-iterates that despite her growing fondness for the Sinners and new willingness to step away from Gesellschaft's knowledge, she still does find a great degree of pride in her abilities.

We finally get an explanation for the comment of the Sinners getting weaker upon joining! Due to the nature of the Golden Boughs, all of the Sinners are reduced to the level of the weakest among them, i.e. Sinclair (or now, Yi Sang).

Once again, Outis attempts to establish a pecking order with her at the top due to individual strength... which then gets toppled by the reminder that Don Quixote can, if not rival, then at least tire out Vergilius.

It's interesting to see that Hohenheim is also aware of the "flow" of the world, and even more interesting that Faust (or, more likely, Gesellschaft) censored him when he began talking about how it was the "flow" that willed Dante to be unharmed. (Is Dante protected by fate or something?)

Also, the consideration of how powerful Dante was prior to their amnesia, and the dismissal of the idea that they could be strong, is kinda disappointing given my belief in @calmariah's "Dante is Bari" theory.

Limbus Company assisting an up-and-coming potential Wing with their goals to overthrow and replace W Corp is kind of neat, especially now that it gives us an excuse to traverse the entire City through the gateways without needing the whole song and dance of another WARP Train.

Gregor's body making weird noises, and the comment from Hohenheim excluding him from the lineup of power levels due to his body's "potential"... it seems we're really bringing back stuff from the first few Cantos.

The particulars of which Sinner groups face which Peccatulum probably merits an analysis, along with Hohenheim's descriptor of what each Sin means (Hong Lu and Sinclair with Wrath, Gregor, Faust, and Meursault with Sloth, Yi Sang and Don Quixote with Envy, Ryoshu and Ishmael with Pride and Lust, and Outis, Heathcliff, and Rodion with Gluttony and Gloom).

Hey, Hong Lu? What did you mean by your passion and rage being extinguished?

Hey, Outis? Why are you so concerned about things like setting off a Wing war and getting a threat level from the Hana Association?

While I'm still not entirely sure, I feel like having an Intervallo dedicated to a guy who used to be a researcher at Lobotomy Corporation and not having Faust be mentioned in connection to it makes me feel like the "Faust has a past with Lobotomy Corporation" theory is probably not gonna come to pass.

It's kind of sad, but also probably for the best, that the compounded thirst and curse means that Don Quixote can't just take of Rocinante and solve problems via the Second Kindred's sheer power.

give it up for the thing I said two days ago becoming extremely relevant

Yeah, in retrospect, I understand the Mother thing a lot more now. I think it was the panic of the moment that had me stumped at first, but after reading through the event again I realize they basically just explain it to you. Still wild though. We have been getting so much bloodfiend lore.

Regarding Dante…

I think this instance stands out to me so much because this is the first time Dante’s synchronized with someone’s feelings, rather than just their thoughts or memories. I’m not sure if this is something they can always do or it has to do with the stress of the moment, but it does feel significant.

It’s also not immediately connected to the Blade Lineage intervallo since that meltdown occurred when Dante was trying to “remember” something about sins and Peccatula. But I do think it’s interesting that the same visuals and sounds are used. There’s gotta be some connecting thread…

I have to read up on your theory because the idea of Dante being an actual baby Star is really fun! The star imagery in places like the prologue is still very vague so it’s interesting to consider what it might mean…

Also sidebar I am getting increasingly concerned about my boy Gregor, the whole intervallo starts because his body is making a weird creaking noise (which could just be age or the mutations of his body but then why does Dante say we never found the reason for it at the end?), then he’s omitted from the strength rankings because of his “potential” (which I’m sure Hohenheim doesn’t give out liberally, considering his background with “potentiality”), and just the fact that Gregor has been ignored or treated like the butt of the joke in recent Cantos makes me worry we’re building up to a disaster of some kind…

hey uhhh anyone whos finished the new event here help me out with my theory because i am gonna Distort (spoilers below, obviously):

hey so what happened with dante. when don took the shoes off. dante freaked out again. what happened with that.

you could argue it's don's influence but dante was THE ONLY ONE TO REACT LIKE THAT. like heathcliff was fine. yi sang was fine and he was LITERALLY IN THE ROOM WITH HER. THIS WAS A DANTE ONLY THING. WHAT HAPPENED

it could just be dante's synchronization with don that caused it, but heathcliff specifically compares this to the time back in the blade lineage intervallo where dante has a meltdown:

i can't confirm this but i think the exact same ambient track plays for both events does this mean something...HELP...

there's also the same glitch/blur effect though it's much more subtle this time than in the blade lineage event

though synchronization could definitely still be what's going on here it feels so significant..i wonder if it's like dante getting overwhelmed by the sin of the bloodfiends' thirst...their lust or gluttony for blood?

every time we get the tiniest crumb of anything about dante i go on a theory spiral like someone help me out here does this mean anything or am i looking into this too hard IDK AAAAAAAA

(and i mean this doesnt even BEGIN to acknowledge the whole mother thing with sancho LIKE WHAT DID THAT MEAN?????)

(I THOUGHT THIS WAS GONNA JUST BE A HAHA SILLY EVENT WHY DOES THIS KEEP HAPPENING TO ME)

+ Second Kindred ver.

[fvaleraye]

limbus company is a wild game. you play as a nonbinary amnesiac who got their head cut off and responded by replacing it with a flaming wall clock, whose second job is to (ineffectually, at first) be the manager of a group of people on a bus and whose first job is to revive and heal them anytime anything happens, which is all the time. your party is comprised of a dour scientist who has a habit of speaking in poetry, a mysterious white haired genius implied to be in a constant mental discord call with different versions of herself across multiple universes, an autistic woman who named her shoes after a fictional horse and turns into an ancient and powerful vampire if they're ever taken off, a swordswoman who speaks a third of her mind in acronyms and loves to murder people "artistically", an autistic frenchman built like a fridge who refuses to be a person unless ordered to, a long haired rich pretty boy who accidentally pisses people off with his sheltered behavior half the time and pretends to be dumber than he is to purposefully annoy people the other half, a british thug whose entire plot could have been solved by just spitting it out and also turned into a wolf monster for a bit, a ginger who got bored of her office job and decided to get on a boat and hunt whales about it, a russian gambler whose mental health and self image are rapidly deteriorating while she is also getting progressively worse at hiding it, a young man who is really in over his head while also being very good at killing people who also is weirdly good at translating the earlier mentioned swordswoman's acronyms, a kiss-ass former military woman who would probably kill everyone else in the party if she thought she could get away with it, and a czech former-soldier who got a mutant bug arm and intense ptsd and depression. there's also the all powerful guide who tells you where to go who is legally not allowed to be too helpful and is also perpetually sick of your shit, and the strange girl who drives the bus you all ride in without a license or a lick of training. also the bus looks like a train. add onto the fact that most of the characters and their backstories are references to classic literature, and you have what is possibly the world's MOST dysfunctional dnd party.

we love this fucking game.
