"You.. remembered?"

It had been a day like any other. Ren had made breakfast for Angel and himself, humming to himself. The rhythm of domiciliary that Angel and him had grown accustomed to was akin to that of their hearts, seemingly beating in unison.

They couldn’t be happier, slender fingers delicately handling the kitchenware. 

Angel was his 

Just the thought made the man’s insides tingle and pleasantly twist, the excitement quickly spreading onto his lips, stretching them into a soft grin. For the first time since meeting the love of his life he felt happy. Loved. 

He was plating the food and setting the table, ready for the day and for them. He carefully made his way to the bedroom, intending to wake Angel when he already saw them sat up, staring at their knees.

Their body was still halfway covered by the soft blanket, a shirt of his loosely hanging off their frame.

“REDACTED”

The name fell from their lips faster than Ren could greet them.

And with that one word his world seemed to shatter.

A part.. A fraction.. Of him was delighted, stomach churning in pleasant surprise.. but it was short lived. The twists and tightening quickly turned into dread.

Why now!?

Why that god forsaken name!?

…. Why couldn’t the illusion stay?

Ren contemplated restarting the day, to relive the idyll and prevent Angel from uttering that abomination of a-

“REDACTED”

The name flowed so innocently from Angel’s lips. So beautifully, so… Untainted. 

They peered up at him, a soft smile on their face. 

“It’s your name, right? Your actual name. REDACTED.”

Ren’s heart stuttered. The sight of them, so sweetly saying their name.. without any stigma. Any hatred. Any… Disgust.

“You… remember..?”

“I do.”

It had taken Angel to embrace him to stop the tears. To stop the shaking.

They hadn’t anticipated this reaction from Ren but nonetheless they wanted to comfort. To heal.

It had taken a lot to get Ren to open up. 

Why are you so uncomfortable?

Should I not call you that..? But.. why?

Can I make it better?

Angel listened patiently as Ren spoke. Not much, just the gist of his hatred.

“My father.”

They nodded, recalling the shared childhood the aftermath of abuse they had witnessed. While oblivious to the signs in their youth, Angel was now wiser and aware of just how broken Ren had been… And still was.

“You know..” 

They cupped his cheeks gently, making him look at them. Clear crystal blue peered at Angel. 

"im!mFun oelec?tCro phMre§$tica%lly ventrGicu§"lo cis="!tLrnost Po&%mies"

Their thumb gently caressed Ren’s cheek in soothing, light circles. Their voice had been barely above a whisper. Just for him to hear. Just for him to feel.

“And I will show you.. Just how beautiful you are.”

I don't know if I'm sad or angry about *H*H* and how it portrayed Hell and its Highest Princes, Kings, Presidents and Marquis or lack thereof. If Miss Medrano truly wanted to criticise Christianity, she could've utilised Demonology and people who work with them. And no, not all Demons are evil.

There are also videos of people having some experiences working or conjuring them and some Demons also want to share their knowledge.

King Paimon - There are videos of people talking about working with King Paimon and I highly recommend watching them. He teaches all arts, philosophies and all secrets things - an offering to him must be made.

Prince Orobas - faithful to the ones that conjure him, never deceives them, gives true answers to past, present and things to come, divinity and creation of the world, confers dignities and prelacies, and favour of friends and foes. - this Prince could be a nice depiction of Demons working with humans, since Prince Orobas along with King Paimon love sharing knowledge -

Prince Stolas - astrology, knowledge of herbs, plants and precious stones. Again, since he's the 'main character' in *H*B* they could show him teaching humans or those who desire to know more - imps or sinners. Then again....

Marquis Gamigin - teaches all liberal sciences and gives an account of the souls of those who died in sin and drowned in the sea. Stays with the conjurer until they are satisfied.

There are also tortured demons, who still wish to return to heaven - Phenex for example - also a pacifist demon, who got casted out of heaven due to not picking a side (no, not Belphegor who was just lazy). All of this could be written as a tragedy, a criticism of God and Christianity, that not all Demons are evil, how Satanists (not in horror movies) and others worship someone else other than God.

(TLDR, I still don't understand why they want to redeem sinners when heaven was shown to be worse than hell.)

God's Hosts

One Messenger, and one as of yet undecided. The only ones able to look upon Elohim's face without falling apart at the seams, hear his voice without feeling like their ears might explode. The only ones whose very bodies are subject to his will

They get some great hugs and kisses out of it tho uwu

Talking about the distinction between monsters and animals reminds me of a line by Catty in the pacifist epilogue where she says her and Bratty can "fulfill [their] dream of having a pet cat." You can ask them more about cats and Bratty jokes about eating them (which Catty takes offence from.) Bratty also implies cats are a rarity, which is interesting.

At the same time the spiders in the ruins are talked about like they're monsters, and shown to be much more intelligent than real spiders, while also being eaten.

This is giving me a headache

Also epic comic!! I am obsessed with the way you characterise everyone, Asriel and Chara's dynamic gives me life :D

As someone very invested in biology and animal science, Undertale’s (and Deltarune’s) microtaxonomy and magic system make me want to scream. ❤️

And also thank you!! I’m so glad you’re enjoying the comic! Asriel and Chara are so fun together. It’s so nice writing something not angsty between them.

[hauntedjohnny]

personally see ‘ship’ as less i want these two to be in a romantic relationship endgame and more these two characters have specific personalities that i think would create an interesting fucked up dynamic that i would like to see explored as close to canon as possible

[thawthebeez]

sick and fucking tired of seeing people kagehina-posting to the song I Don't Smoke by Mitski as if any of those lyrics fit them at all. "if you need to be mean be mean to me" and it's always the s2 ep5 fight where hinata is the victim as if that argument was kageyama patronizing hinata and not the two of them having a minor disagreement and hinata ultimately fighting for what he knows is right. "i can take it and put it inside of me" in reference to hinata internalizing any shitty thing that's ever been said to him as if he hasn't been glued to kageyama's side ever since day one when kageyama was calling him a 'klutzy piece of shit' on the regular and not giving a single fuck. "just don't leave me alone wondering where you are" as a form of hinata angst because kageyama went to the world stage, where he definitely won't be found, because his face definitely won't be on the TV screens in restaurants in hinata's new home town because STILL the universe refuses to keep them apart for some fucking reason. hell, if anything that line should be told from kageyama 'i have abandonment issues' tobio's perspective, because at the end of the day HINATA was the one to leave for some foreign country on the other side of the world (but even then, they still most definitely kept contact. like you're crazy if you think that a mere ocean is going to keep them apart). but, yknow, the haikyuu tiktok community just loooooves to demonize tobio any chance they get, because, well, they can't baby the autistic coded character so they gotta make him seem like a horrible person instead! i can't do this anymore .

Oops my DIM loadout names were supposed to just be cheeky jokes but they've become a bullet list of Damien's best personality traits. (Minus the bondage thing honestly. That's there ironically. He's insisting I clarify that. He's vanilla.)

[cheemken]

not prev but now I'm hooked with your Diantha/Sycamore are siblings headcanons, please share more🥺

You got it anon the Carnet/Sycamore siblings are my fave to write stuff for hahaha

Anyways

•Augustine definitely used the "my sister is the champion and she can beat your ass!" card during his teen years lets be real (tho there are times where he actually still uses that on the present day)

-in my aus Dia became champion when she was 16, so when she got custody of Sycamore no one really questioned her bc ofc, she's strong enough to be Champion, she can take care of her brother

-she honestly struggled raising him but she never showed it when he's around

•Augustine's partner pokemon in my aus is Garchomp

-Diantha is actually the one who gave him Gible just as he started his journey

-Augustine was kinda late since he started his journey around 14

-so before his 14th birthday, Diantha went above and beyond, getting him a Pokedex, buying a badge case, a new backpack, some pokeballs, potions, etc, the usual things that trainers get at the start of their journey

-she did work extra hard to get the money to get him those things tho, but for her it was worth it

-and yeah the only other thing missing was his starter pokemon

-at first she wanted to give him a Ralts, maybe he'd raise it to be a Gallade, but she decided against it, saying that it feels like she's trying to make him a mini version of herself and she'd rather not want that for her brother

-so she looked around Kalos, trying to find the perfect pokemon to be his starter

-no luck tho, it's almost six and she still hasn't found the perfect one, until this Gible went to her and Gardevoir, running around them and playing w Garde

-it was all fun and games, and Dia decided to ask it if he wants to come home w her, and meet someone that would really love playing with him, that would help him become stronger

-ofc, the Gible was ecstatic, and happily went to the pokeball

-and yeah, on the day of his birthday, Augustine unwrapped his presents and was so happy to see all the new gear he has, but then looked at her going "this is great and all, Dia, but.. I don't have a pokemon yet ó-ò"

And Diantha smiles at him and softly hands him a PokeBall and just "of course you do, love"

He opens the pokeball and out comes Gible, jumping up and down, running around their table, and Augustine caught him when he jumped towards him, both laughing and was so happy to be w each other

Augustine was tearing up all "a Gible! My own pokemon! My very first pokemon!"

"that's right, and now you can finally go on the journey you dreamt of. You can find out more about the pokemon of our world, isn't that what you always wanted?"

"yeah! It's everything I ever dream about! And thanks to you I can finally start my journey! Thank you so much, Dia!"

And Augustine runs up to her and gives her the biggest hug he could w Gible still in his arms, and Diantha is there just smiling softly at him, kissing the top of his head, saying "show them just how bright you shine, my darling"

Augustine pulls away looking at her w a teary smile, but he nodded, pulling Gible close, "of course, I will! I'll make you proud!" And yeah he gathered all his stuff and finally started his journey, bidding her farewell as he and Gible went on their way

And hey, Dia's there, watching as he starts to go further and further away from her, finally off to live his dreams and discover more abt pkmn, and she smiles to herself, whispering "I'm already so proud of you"

And yeah that's all for now hahaha
