miscellaneous current rev run bits:

recruited kana yesterday. i honestly did not realize the 2 brigand bosses showed up on that map a few turns later since this map in the previous runs was completed so fast. :o while they're not an archetype that's particularly done well, it's neat to see how there's variables/surprises still to uncover.

speaking of kana yrmr-verse, i headcanon corrin/gunter deliberately try for at least one child post rev. that said, i kind of love the 'wouldn't that be totally fucked up or what' :D implications of fathering kana right uh. right in the possession, lmao. i've talked about the anankos specific bit in one of my old posts here, and how it was probably the impetus for IS to close off the gunter romance in rev vs making it explicit with a paired ending. (cowards)

here, let's say all of that shit is canon >:) in this current rev run the conception probably happens with the classic assumption of ~he's too old for his swimmers to do anything~. naturally with the amount they're screwing oops baby time!

this story's the absolute closest i think any mainstream media's actually outright put 'old man villainfucking with an incredibly textual side of daddykink' in the actual god dang plot so i'm milking all the skeeze for what it's worth.

can you. imagine the emotional roller coaster of that poor dude though. :') like. a child is already a big deal. then you throw in his backstory which makes it super frickin tragic feelsy. and then, THEN you throw in the fridge horror of the possession and him wondering if he's fucked up kana somehow and still unable to actually spill the beans on everything. the angst of not being able to tell corrin? (WITH anankos' influence muddling everything to be the cherry on top???)

edit holy shit what if (like in yrmr) anankos drip-feeds that true familial relation to corrin as yet another emotional wedge between gunter and corrin, driving him further into the possession. anankos is already outright to shown to prey on character's worst fears. you absolutely know that'd be a huge one for this man (being abandoned again for something he can't change).

rest in pieces
