Avant d’avoir les résultats et qu’on ait tous envie de crever, j’ai voulu faire un tour des fanfics sur la politique française ( a des fins scientifiques bien entendu ) et oh boi y’a des trucs à dire
Sur Wattpad :
-Il y’a plus de 270 fanfics Bardella x Attal ( Les gars ?? Je comprends amour haine tout ça, mais wsh )
-J'en ai trouvé aucune sur le Front Populaire ou la gauche en général ( ce qui est une bonne chose ? je suppose ? )
-Par contre j’en ai lu une ( pour la science toujours ) où ils sont des persos secondaires 🤷‍♂️
-Antoine Daniel a fait des dégâts irréparables au milieu des fanfics shitpost /pos
AO3 :
-Y’a un tag populaire " RPF Political " ( Je dois vivre avec cette info maintenant )
-La tendance est beaucoup plus au ship Macron sur ce site bien que tjr pas mal de Bardellattal ? *Ugh*
-Toujours aucune du Front Populaire mais j’en ai trouvé avec Mélenchon qui datent toutes de 2017/2018
Voila
Si vous vous voulez plus de détail hésitez pas 👍

Thoughts on GojoHime in the Phantom Parade side story
Tumblr media
(An English fan translation of the full story here & another English translation of the GojoHime part here).
The story, "Satoru Gojo, The Night Before The Goodwill Event," is divided in 3 sections, where Gojo teases 3 of his closest friends, lol.
A little recap first.
So, it seems that weeks before the Goodwill Event, Gojo had been looking for ideas on what the students could do for fun. On the day before the event, he started off with Nanami, convincing him to go bowling. Finding certain aspects of it complicated (such as where it could take place), Gojo scratched it off & left, leaving an annoyed Nanami behind. (It's unclear if Gojo was simply watching or playing too, but he left when it was his turn to bowl).
That night, he found Utahime outside of the Tokyo Dome, having just finished watching a live baseball game. Her team lost & she was mad. After teasing her a bit, Uta asked him why he was there & Gojo said he knew she'd be in Tokyo, as both of them should be making preparations for the upcoming event. He added that unlike him, she was slacking off on the job by going to the dome. Ignoring him & surprised that Gojo was putting in the work, Uta told him to go continue his preparations then, but Gojo said she should come too. When she asked why, Gojo said if she didn't want him telling on her to the principals, they should go to a Batting Cage. Offering to pay for her as the cherry on top, he said exercise was good to let out frustrations & ran off. Confused, Uta chased after him (what in the shoujo rom-com is this)
She ended up hitting a bunch of home runs, leaving Gojo impressed 👀. After a couple rounds of batting on her own, she asked him what the batting had to do with the preparations. Gojo hesitated & told her it was a secret before running off again (teleporting?), leaving her confused. Gojo knew he'd find baseball the most fun even just by watching & decided to pick that as one of the activities for the students on the 2nd day of the exchange event.
That same night, he basically ordered a confused Ijichi to drive him to some stores to buy the equipment & uniforms for the baseball match & other potential activities. It was then revealed he was using the school funds, even for the bowling & Batting Cage (lol), & told Ijichi to add in the extra activities to the poll for the 2nd day of the event. As already established in the manga/anime, Gojo had rigged the poll & was happy that baseball won.
Ooh, boy... So, let's dissect this. How did Gojo find Utahime at the Tokyo Dome? Was it a coincidence, despite the amounts of people there? Did he sense or see her CE & followed it there? Or did he make an educated a lucky guess she would be there, as he knows she often goes to watch games when in Tokyo (since he pointed out that he knew she'd already be in town for the Goodwill Event)?
Gojo noticed she was upset about her fav team losing, so he suggested they go to a batting center so she could let off some steam, making it sound like it had to do with his preparations for the event (which, technically, it did 🤪). The thing is...Gojo didn't play with her. He stood to the side while she played.
And Uta just went along with it... She clearly doesn't mind being in his company, not to mention at night. She must've been pretty into it, & who knows what she was wearing; it's likely that she was in casual wear (off-duty & her miko outfit would've stood out too much at the dome). Gojo might've been in casual wear too. (Phantom Parade has all the characters in their default outfits despite the OG scenes showing otherwise in the manga/anime).
What was going thru Gojo's head while at the Batting Cage? He was clearly impressed by her skills, as she hit a bunch of home runs 👀. Before heading over to Ijichi, Gojo thought to himself that he knew he would enjoy baseball & that it was fun just to watch the batting...meaning it was fun for him to watch Utahime being all flushed & sweaty & in her cute outfit &—
He bought the baseball uniforms for the students & Utahime. How did he know their sizes? Maybe he asked Ijichi for the student files or something, like what measurements they have for their school uniforms. But Utahime? Gojo must've made an educated guess... His experience with women, maybe? 🤪 And that maybe he observes her a little too much...
Reminds me of some scenes in the Earl & Fairy anime/novel series in which Edgar would gift Lydia dresses that fit her to a T (when they weren't even dating or anything, lol) & she'd wonder how in the world he knew her exact measurements. Edgar was a womanizer so he was definitely well-versed in women's bodies, & was becoming very interested in her, so... 🤭 (If y'all want a dynamic similar to GojoHime, go read this series!! It's amazing!!)
Then at the baseball game with the students, Gojo put on his sunglasses (which he either wears on a whim or to pick up girls, as stated by Gege himself 👀) & his "seduction" outfit that he once wore to annoy Megumi in that one Jujusanpo. Meanwhile, Uta wore the baseball uniform provided by Gojo, matching her white bow with a white belt. Girl—
So, this proves the headcanon that Gojo had rigged the poll for Utahime. He knows she loves baseball & he canonically does too (as implied in one of the novels while talking to Ijichi & making references to the famous Japanese baseball player Ichiro Suzuki). They must bond over baseball when Gojo's not teasing 😩. Baseball date headcanons proven too 🤭.
Sure, Gojo added in other sports/activities to the poll, but the fact baseball won when Gojo had said it'd be the most fun...maybe he put more baseball slips in the box. In the manga/anime, the main takeaway is that Gojo chose baseball as the main activity 😏.
He picked something that all of them could enjoy, which was very sweet of him 🥹. I wonder if Uta ever connected the dots? Did she realize Gojo got the idea because of her? For her too? But maybe she was too irritated that she lost to Gojo at the game, lol, as she's very competitive. She was telling off her students here.
This makes me wonder if they made a bet of some sort. Imagine? We can have so much fun with this side story 😩...
BTW, what if Uta had been the one to introduce Gojo to the sport to begin with?! She'd get all nerdy & passionate about it. Gojo likes how expressive she gets & maybe that's why he enjoyed watching her play at the batting center? Not to mention the view— Must be one of the reasons he enjoys teasing her~
Anyway, I can't believe we got a story like this! So cute! We got fed good 🤭. Too bad we didn't get to see Nanami interacting with GojoHime (to potentially prove our HC's that he gets annoyed by Gojo's antics towards their senpai 🤭). Hope we get more crumbs like this in the future!

Tumblr media
When you were chosen for the games, you thought your fate was sealed. You were going to be brutally murdered, and you would never see the light of day ever again until Finnick became your mentor.
“Look…” he said, inhaling as you both stood in front of the tube that would take you up to the arena. “I know, I know you’re not that strong,” he whispers, thumb slowly stroking your cheek. “But you fucking run, okay? You run, you hide, you just… you need to come out of there alive, okay?”
You shook your head. “I don’t think I can, Fin, I just-”
“Y/N,” he says firmly, holding your shoulders. “Please. Please come out. For me.”
You inhale deeply as the Peacekeeper yells out ‘five more minutes’, Finnick leaning down to press a kiss to your head. “Promise me you’ll try.”
Finnick was one of the most perfect people you could’ve ever asked for, so as soon as you saw that mark on his lower abdomen right on his hip bone that matched yours, you promised yourself you’d never let him see it. Not when you were going to die in the arena and he would lose his soulmate, someone he didn’t deserve.
Finnick deserved the world, and in your mind, that wasn’t you.
He was always telling you about people who had pretended to be his soulmate, getting tattoos of his mark just to try and get with him, though they always missed the small dot on the lower left side, the same one you had. He then always added that he never wanted to meet his soulmate, saying things like he didn’t want to burden them with what he’s been through or he didn’t think it’d work out.
You knew he would never burden his soulmate, especially you, but you didn’t want to start anything when you would most likely die.
He always said how he had this connection to you that he couldn’t explain, his eyes always filled with so much love it made you want to cry. It would’ve been a horrible decision to tell him really, but everything he did made you want to say it.
“One minute!”
“Finnick, I just-”
“I'm going to watch every second, darling,” he whispered, inhaling deeply. “And I’m going to be with you every moment.”
You nodded, hands shakily squeezing his wrists that cupped your face before starting to step back. You go around him to step onto the platform, slowly stepping inside as Finnick quickly runs onto the platform, pressing his hand to the glass. He inhaled, nodding. “Y-Y/N, I love-”
With that, almost like it was a farewell, your capsule shot up. You emerged in a large field, wheat around you with the center being the classic cornucopia. The numbers started blaring, signaling the beginning of your inevitable demise.
Even then though, you promised Finnick you would try, so you had to. You would run and hide and swim and do everything you could to survive like you promised him, even though you didn’t expect it to gain your victory.
After winning, you couldn’t have taken more showers. Though not physically covered in blood, you felt disgusting, as though all of those deaths were on your hands. You finally stopped when you felt your nails burning, skin almost raw from how much you rubbed it in an attempt to get off the invisible blood, quickly turning around to turn off the water and step out.
You pat your skin down, too scared to irritate it more before putting on some tiny shorts. You really needed to feel the cold instead of warmth like you did all throughout the games and a thin camisole that didn’t hide your soulmate mark. You looked at it in the mirror, the reddish-brown hue making you hum - it was nice to just look at it for a minute instead of hiding it.
It doesn’t take you long to step out, stretching before you notice Finnick sitting on your bed looking starstrucked. “Finnick!”
“Y/N, what the hell is that?”
At first you didn’t know what he was talking about, looking down at the wide gash you had on your forearm. “Oh, the District 1 Career was trying to get a hit in before-”
He stood up abruptly, grabbing your wrist and pulling you into his chest, his hand quickly finding its place at your hip. “Is that real?”
You look down, quickly covering the mark. “Y-You… you weren’t supposed to see that.”
You sounded stupid, head hazy as he pressed his finger firmly against it and rubs, gasping when it doesn’t fade or get irritated at his touch. “Did you- why would you keep this from me?”
“Because I thought I was going to die, Finnick,” you inhaled deeply. “I never thought I would see you again. I didn’t want to give you hope-”
“So instead you chose to lie to me and keep the fact that you’re my soulmate and that we could’ve been building a life together? A soulmate bond? How long have you known?” He whispered, leaning down as you looked away.
“Since we started training together.”
He inhaled sharply, letting out a soft whimper as he looked away. “Why didn’t you tell me?”
“Because I thought I was going to die,” you explained, holding back tears. “I thought I was going to die and that you were going to be left with hope and I just-” a strangled sob left your mouth as he pulled you into a hug, his lips pressing to your forehead.
“You don’t worry about anything, darling. I promise, I swear,” he pulled away to press a soft kiss to your lips. “I will never let anything happen to you ever again.”
It had been quiet until you both were pulled into the Third Quarter Quell. You volunteered for Mags much to Finnick’s dismay, especially when you both had gotten to the parade.
“It’s too on show, Finnick,” you whisper, trying to lift up your skirt before he swats at your hand. “Finnick!”
“Who cares anymore, darling?” He whispers, pulling you closer. “Why should we hide it, hm? Let everyone know that they should be jealous. I have the most beautiful woman in the world by my side.”
You blushed madly as he smiled, leaning down to press a soft kiss to your lips. “If they find out, they won’t pull me from the games because they renounced the law,” you whisper, inhaling shakily. “We’re going to get out of there, right? Together?”
He nodded, pushing back your hair. “I swear to you, Y/N, I promise.” He inhaled deeply as the fanfare started, leaning down to press a kiss to your head. “I’ll be right by your side, my love.”
You looked up, nodding as he pushed back your hair, a loud noise making you both look to the side. There Katniss stood, awkward and stick-like as you try to pull away from Finnick on instinct but he just held you tighter. He pulled you away, quickly helping you into the carriage before getting on himself.
“They’re going to have a field day with this,” you say, pulling your skirt a bit lower to expose the mark on your hip. “Might as well give them a show, right?”
He smiled, pulling down his waistband to show off the same mark. “Might as well, darling.”
The news came out sooner than you expected, Finnick pulling you closer to his chest as you sat on his cock. It was peaceful, watching the news a few hours before being dragged into the games. The public was raving about the fact you both were soulmates, and Finnick’s cock that was balls deep inside of you still spurting cum into you as he slowly rolled his hips.
“Want to go again,” he mumbled, his words not a question but a statement. You giggled as he stared at you, eyes hazy and drunk on your cunt. “Please? Can we go again?”
You giggle, leaning up to press a kiss to his lips. “You just want to fuck because we’re not going to be able to in the games, don’t you?”
He hummed. “Who says we can’t fuck in the games?”
You paused, letting out a soft hum as you started to roll your hips into his. “You’ll just fuck me anywhere, won’t you? Too fucking pussy drunk to think about anything else?”
It was a dangerous game, playing with a more dominant Finnick like this, especially because you were definitely the more submissive person in this relationship. Finnick always felt so fucking good when you acted like this, a sub trying to get more dominant on their dom and tease him, especially when you were on top.
He was going to feed your mind just a bit before he fucked you so hard you wouldn’t remember your name.
After processing your words, he nods as he kisses against your shoulder down to the swell of your tits, kissing and licking at your nipple. “Yes, yes darling. I want to fuck you so bad, please, please. I need to feel that pussy clench around me, need to feel your cunt milk my cock baby.”
He watched your eyes roll back, a smirk finding its way to his lips as he teased your nipple with his teeth. He sucks, groaning as you tug on his hair, pulling him closer as his hands hold your waist, forcing you to roll your hips into his and taking pleasure in the whines falling from your lips. “F-Fin, need you to fuck me.”
He pulled away, staring at your hard nipples and swollen areola. He laughs, looking up at you between your tits, eyes glossed over with lust as he pressed his lips to the center of your chest and sucked against your skin. You whined loudly as he leaves bright hickeys ranging from bright pink to dark purple all along your skin; anywhere from your collarbone to your chest to your sides, lifting you off of him to watch your face scrunch in discomfort when his length is pulled out of you.
“No, Finnick, don’t do that!”
It made him laugh; as pussy drunk as he was, you were cock obsessed more than you’d ever admit.
“What? Why not? I need to make room for more of the cum that I’m going to fill you up with.”
He laid you on your bed, pushing his head between your thighs to kiss against your stretched cunt, already pushing his tongue into your pussy to taste the mixed cum flooding into his mouth. He groaned loudly, his hips bucking into the mattress that did little to nothing to relieve him of the need to be inside of you.
He pulled away, face covered in sheen from your lewd juices, the whine that left your lips making him laugh just a bit. He laid back on the bed, humming. “Come here, darling. Want your pussy on my face.”
You nodded, knowing better than to argue with him when he got like this, quickly moving to hover over his mouth. “F-Fin, are you sure, I don’t know if I can-”
“Darling, if you don’t shut up and sit on my face, I won’t fuck you again tonight.” His hand slapping against your ass proved his point even more, a yelp leaving your mouth as you let your body relax and his mouth suck on your leaking cunt. Your eyes rolled back as he groaned, one hand holding the hip with your soulmate mark, his hand tight as the other pushed up your back while pushing you down. The new angle makes you whine loudly, gasping as his cock slaps against your cheek, his leaking tip smearing cum against your skin.
His cock was so pretty in front of you, thick and long, his tip flushed a bright red as cum leaking out, harder than you had ever seen as his hands squeeze at the plushness of your ass. His moans against your cunt made you whine, pulling his cock into your mouth just like he wanted you to.
Your eyes rolled back as he groaned loudly, fingers slipping into your pussy to scrape his cum from your walls, pulling out everything he could to swallow into his mouth. You whine loudly when his fingers get a little rough, pain blooming making his fingers pull away and a quick apology comes from his mouth. He smiled as he softly rubbed against that one area, kissing softly making you whine as you bobbed your head on his cock.
“Better?”
You nodded around his length, jaw slack as you bobbed your head over his cock, groaning as you pulled away. His cock bounced, mixed saliva and cum dripping down his shaft as you whined loudly. “Y-Yes, Fin, just like that!”
He smirks, pushing a finger back into you as he continues to rub that one spot you loved, curling and thrusting his finger inside of you as you pull his cock back into your mouth. You groaned loudly around his length, bobbing your head as fast as you could before pushing your head down and pulling his entire length down your throat.
Your eyes watered as you gagged, rolling back into your head as his hips thrust up into you, one of his hands forcing your head to stay low. You could only groan around his length as he used your mouth like a cock sleeve, thrusting harder and harder into you as his fingers of his other hand curled inside of you, thumb rubbing against your clit.
You pulled your hair out of your face, holding his thighs for some sort of grounding agent as he rammed his cock into your throat, your nose settled against his balls. He was groaning into your cunt, his tongue flicking and pushing into you as wet squelching fills the room, your throat relaxing as he does one last throat to cum down your throat.
He groaned loudly into your cunt, pushing his fingers into you just to hit that one spot that made you come undone around his digits. You gasped as you pulled away, letting out soft coughs as you swallowed, licking around his length before he pulled you off his face.
It makes you yelp as he quickly laid on your body, giggling as you hugged him tightly and pressed kisses to his hair. He mumbled out a soft ‘I love you’ as he pulled away, quickly gaining the same response from you before cleaning you up and pulling you into his chest. “I’m going to get you out of there alive, Y/N.”
You inhale deeply, pressing your face into his neck. “I know you will, Fin.”
It wasn’t until later in the games, where you stood by the tree did you actually doubt his words. A District 10 tribute had come way too close to you, slashing your side with her blade making you strip off half of your suit that Finnick couldn’t keep his eyes off of.
“What? Don’t stop on my account, I’m enjoying the show.” He was definitely enjoying the show, your soulmate mark on display and half of your skin that was covered in hickeys being shown off as well.
You rolled your eyes playfully, Katniss shoving him every few minutes to get him to focus on what they were doing as you attempted to find something to cover yourself. “Y/N, darling, what are you doing?”
“Trying to find something to cover myself up,” you explain quickly, sighing. “I just… feel exposed.”
He comes over, wrapping his arms around you to press a soft kiss to your lips. “I’m right here, darling. Always. You don’t have to feel exposed, ever.”
You smiled, pulling him in for another kiss. “I know, Fin. Thank you.”
He would stick by your side until Katniss blows out the top of the arena, cradling you under his body and whispering soft reassurances when you’re both lifted up into District 13s aircraft, and mending your side with the medical supplies.
“I promised I would get you out,” he whispers, smiling. “And I promise I’ll keep you safe, forever.”

Foundations of Mendel - Durandal in Context of His Biography and World
Tumblr media
The goal of this write-up is figuring out how Durandal's disparate backstory bits fit in with both each other and the chronology of the Cosmic Era as a whole. It's my attempt at taking the retcons presented in Freedom and turning them back into a coherent narrative. (As a side effect, I also recap a lot of important lore that was not directly mentioned on the show.)
I begin far before Durandal was even born, because I think the tumultuous context of the Cosmic Era is fundamental to the emotional development of the show's adult cast. I'm basing everything here on the official timeline, which was initially published around 2004 (in MSV, for example) and reprinted as recently as 2012 in "Gundam SEED Mechanics and The World". The timeline is translated on the Gundam Wiki here, but I'll recap everything I deem important.
Lore that is not taken directly from the timeline or the anime itself will be marked either with its source or clearly labeled as speculation.
~*~
In the year CE 15 George Glenn releases the blueprint for how to make Coordinators. Initially, the practice is outlawed. The first generation of Coordinators is born in secret, mostly to wealthy parents who can afford both the treatment and the secrecy required. Siegel Clyne, Patrick Zala and Aura Maha Khyber all belong to this generation. They grow up on Earth, hiding their genetic type from their peers.
The public view on Coordinators doesn't change until CE 29, when George Glenn brings back Evidence 01, the space whale fossil. Confronted with the knowledge that intelligent alien life exists for certain, religious organizations lose influence on public ethics, thus resulting in their objections towards 'violation of the natural order' being rejected. Fueled by the thought that humanity would have to compete with a much wider universe, the creation of Coordinators booms and becomes commonplace.
This is also where space station Mendel marks its beginnings. It's a research hub centered around genetics, one of the facilities where parents would turn in order to have their children modified. The first secretly born Coordinators are all between 5 and 14 years old by this point, and for the first time more of their kind are created outside of covert efforts. None have reached adulthood yet.
And it won't be until around CE 40 that a significant enough number of the earliest Coordinators enters the workforce and begin having children. This shifts public opinion and puts a damper on the wide-spread enthusiasm. It becomes apparent that the adult Coordinators have a significant skill gap that sets them apart from their Natural peers. The fears and anxieties caused by this observed reality sees to it that Blue Cosmos once again finds mainstream appeal
It's now, in the year CE 41. Gilbert Durandal is born. I think this makes it very likely that his parents were some of the first Coordinators, still born in hiding. While it's still possible that he is first generation and made by Natural parents around this time by sheer coincidence, I think the fact that Aura finds his genetics fascinating enough to want to study them also speaks for him being second generation rather than directly modified.
Then in CE 44, when Durandal is 3 years old, the first set of PLANT colonies (Aprilius) is completed. The PLANTs are named as such because they were intended as manufacturing plants that should help the Earth by outsourcing a lot of production to space. They wind up being pretty much exclusively staffed by Coordinators since their abilities make it easier for them to effectively work in space. They're forbidden from producing their own food, thus keeping the workers totally dependent on Earth.
I think it's interesting to keep in mind that colony living as a wide-spread phenomenon is incredibly young in the Cosmic Era, even as opposed to the Universal Century which already had millions of people living in space in UC 20.
While there are around 10 million Coordinators by CE 45, a sizeable amount of them still lives on Earth. Hatred against Coordinators continues rising and terror attacks on the PLANTs are common. This is the social climate Aura experiences during her formative teenage years.
Tumblr media
At the same time, dissatisfaction with the Coordination process is very commonplace as well. The (rich) people who shell out for designer babies are unhappy about even the slightest variation in their orders (let alone actual emergencies as they may occur in any pregnancies). The researchers at Mendel are at theirs wits end.
Trying to solve this perceived "problem", Ulen Hibiki works on the artificial womb. But he lacks funding, leading him to accept Al da Flaga's request to make a clone of himself in exchange for more money for his research.
Tumblr media
Thus, in CE 46, Rau le Creuset is born.
As mentioned, at this point the seclusion of Coordinators living in the PLANTs is by circumstance rather than design. The founding of an actual organization of Coordinators is not until CE 50, when Siegel Clyne and Patrick Zala found the Zodiac Alliance. In its conception the Zodiac Alliance is a movement for autonomy of the PLANTs, including a right to make their own food. It is not well-received by the powers that be and driven underground pretty much immediately.
With that, we arrive at CE 53. Exactly 20 years prior to the events of Destiny, all the key players we know have moved to their starting positions and the plot threads we are familiar with begin unraveling.
The scene is Mendel. Ulen Hibiki, one of its best researchers. Aura Maha Khyber, also on Mendel although presumably working for a different company. She is engaged in a fierce rivalry with Hibiki. (Freedom Novel) 8 year old Rau, undergoing a secluded and strict education to become Da Flaga's heir. (SEED Novel) And Gilbert Durandal, 12 years old... also on Mendel, about to meet Aura Maha and change both their lives. (I am guessing on the year number - technically this could have also happened a year later, when Durandal is 13.)
Why Durandal came to Mendel is a mystery. Did his parents work there? Was he specifically coming there as a test subject? Or was his genius intellect big enough that he was coming there to work? Either way, his intellect is noticed by Aura and found to be exceptional. She begins studying his genes. (Freedom Novel)
Having grown up in these troubled times, Durandal was already trying to think of ways to use science to improve the world and bring about peace. The Destiny Plan is born here, as the naive dream of a tween. And "maybe we can use our newfound genetic expertise to give everyone a life that makes them happy" is perfectly reasonable as the dream of a kid who has immense intelligence but not yet attained true emotional maturity. And maybe it would have remained as such a dream, if not for Aura. Aura, at this point 29 years old, decides that actually the tween is CORRECT and we should absolutely structure the world around the tween's ideals! (Freedom Novel)
Maybe Aura is inspired in her fervor by the precarious point in history that they are in. George Glenn is assassinated either briefly before or briefly after Aura and Durandal meet. Making matters worse, Earth is faced with a pandemic of a new strain of influenza, which kills Naturals left and right but to which Coordinators are immune. Rumors spread that Coordinators engineered the illness, further escalating tensions. With things turning upside down this way, Aura may well have felt that she was on the cusp of a new era and given her the resolve to try and shape that era for what she felt is the better. We can only speculate.
Either way, the end result is that in CE 54, Aura actually convinces a whole team of researchers of her and Durandal's idea and begins creating a mediator master race for the new world they envision: the Accords.
Aura, just like Hibiki, is hurting for funding. Where Hibiki took money from the earth elite Da Flaga, Aura seeks her money from the Coordinators living on PLANT. She works on devising an anti-aging treatment as it is becoming increasingly apparent that the second generation of Coordinators is incredibly infertile and thus concerns are rising about the aging workforce. (Freedom Novel) (While this is the reason we are given in the text, the oldest Coordinators would only be around 40 at this point and the second generation around 20. The realization of second generation infertility would be very very recent.) Further, Aura's relative, the Emperor Mihar Khyber from Earth, is sending significant support to her project. (Freedom Novel) (My personal conclusion is that these circumstances led to Aura's labs being far better off financially than Hibiki's at this point, further worsening relations between the two.)
Then, in CE 55, Mendel sees its own little baby boom.
Tumblr media
Via Hibiki gives birth to Cagalli. The first successful artificial womb gives birth to Kira. Lacusmama gives birth to Lacus. Aura gives birth to Orphee. An unknown researcher gives birth to Ingrid. (There is also a white haired baby in the movie screenshot, but Shura is two years too young to be the baby depicted. Mysterious!)
This is where I want to once again reiterate my belief that the Accords were carried to term rather than born from artificial wombs. Rau goes through great pains to tell us that an incredible amount of fetuses died in the attempt to get even a single live birth out of the artificial womb. It's absolutely nuts to think that Aura, two labs over, had successfully made three live births from artificial wombs just a few months before Kira was born.
The much less lorebreaking explanation is simply that Aura and Hibiki just had wholly different goals and priorities to start with. (Fukuda himself has stated at a live event that Aura's claims of Kira being a 'failed Accord' are nonsense, as Hibiki was never aiming to make an Accord at all.) Where Hibiki was trying to create a Coordinator that is 100% accurate to the genetic settings input by himself, Aura was much more focused on creating babies that had psychic abilities. It stands to reason that mild variations caused by natural pregnancy weren't a big obstacle.
In the same year, genetic modification is once again banned on Earth. From here on out, the only new Coordinators would be second and third generation Coordinators born to Coordinator parents. The creation of new Coordinators seems to have basically stopped entirely - if some secret births are happening, they do not impact canon significantly enough to ever be brought up.
Unfortunately neither the ban on making new Coordinators nor Mendel's scientists successfully developing a vaccine for the pandemic satisfy Blue Cosmos. They launch a terror attack on Mendel, as it is the epicenter of genetic research. Ulen Hibiki loses his life in the attack. Aura gets exposed to an overdose of her own anti-aging drug prototype and begins a painful months-long process of gradually aging in reverse until her body turns into that of a child. (Freedom Novel) Kira, Cagalli and Lacus are all brought away to their respective families. Durandal, now 14 years old, seemingly gets through the attack with no lasting injuries and decides to remain on Mendel, making more Accords with the now tiny Aura.
Tumblr media
Around this time (presumably by CE 57), things start heating up for the Da Flaga family. Rau is introduced to the Da Flaga main house (and Mu) as the new heir. It is implied that it is then that Da Flaga finds out that Rau suffers from short telomeres. (SEED Novel) This essentially means that his cells are the same age as Al's cells - middle-aged. Rau will die around the same time as Al, making him completely useless as a successor. It's possible that this prompts Al to call up Mendel labs to order a second clone - if Rey is born around this year that would make him around 16 by the time of Destiny, matching the timeline pretty well. Before Al can find out whether or not Rey suffers from the same defect as Rau, he is burned alive within his mansion. Rau has decided to do a little righteous arson in retribution for having been discarded.
With Rey now born, he winds up living a sad shadow existence on Mendel. In one lab, there's Rey, growing up isolated and alone. In another, Aura and Durandal merrily keep making siblings for Orphee and Ingrid and raising them all carefully (as specimens and tools). Knowing they were only separated by a few buildings sure is a terrible irony....
The last Accord (Redelard) is born in CE 60, when Durandal is 19 years old (and Aura is 35 going on 11). I feel like it puts a great amount of context to Durandal's messiah complex to consider how much his teenage years were fully dominated by Aura and her reinforcement. An idea for creating a simple utopia is something you might grow out of as you learn more nuance, but it's hard to learn that nuance when you have an accomplished older researcher constantly telling you you're right and literally making designer humans for you. I believe that at this point, Durandal is still fully convinced of the Destiny Plan (Masterrace Edition).
The Destiny novelizations feature a scene from when he and Talia were still dating, in which he gets all starry-eyed telling her about how he truly believes science will save the world and everyone in it. With the retconned-in knowledge that at that point he's hiding half a dozen of genetically-engineered children from Talia, the scene takes on an even more sinister tone... And yet his enthusiasm and desire to do good are sincere. The scene should take place sometime around this time. We don't know when Durandal and Talia started dating, but I imagine it's a year or two after Redelard is born. After all, Durandal and Talia already break up in CE 63 - when Durandal is 22 and Talia is 18. (Omake Quarters)
Tumblr media
At the time of this scene, there are 7 children who think of Durandal as their father - but he doesn't think of them as his children, both because they were made when he was too young to be a father and because they are not genetically 'his'. It's such bitter, bitter irony. Aura certainly created a mess for everyone involved when she decided that making custom babies for a 13 year old boy was a reasonable thing to be doing.
I tend to think of CE 63 as the big turning point year for Durandal's life another way as well. In my opinion, it is the year in which Aura and the Accords move to Earth.
Tumblr media
This picture appears to have been taken in a colony, so it must have been while all of them were still on Mendel. The Accord's sterile-looking outfits support that assumption. If you ask me, Redelard looks about 3, while Orphee and Ingrid could feasibly be 8. Durandal could easily be 22. Going with those ages would place the image squarely into CE 63. In my interpretation, this picture is a commemorative goodbye photo, taken specifically as a keepsake.
(Since the picture shows Durandal wearing his chairman outfit (that he shouldn't be wearing until a decade later), it's hard to take the clothes Aura and Durandal wearing seriously as indicators of timeline. They appear to have been chosen solely for being their most iconic looks. However, I'm still choosing to interpret the fact that Aura donned her queen garb here as supporting evidence towards this headcanon.)
My more relevant reasoning for Aura moving to Earth at this point is that it solves a major timeline conundrum: it gives an explanation for why Rau doesn't know about the Accords (as confirmed by Fukuda at a live talk session). If Aura and the Accords had still been living on Mendel while Durandal befriended Rau, it'd have been odd for Rau to not find out about them. But if Aura has already left for Earth, then Durandal has a much easier time lying by omission.
Besides, Aura has good reason to want to hide out on Earth. Due to her connections to a royal family, she's guaranteed to have a safe and comfortable living - and it gives her opportunity to amass more power and influence. Once the Mendel labs ceased being needed (for producing more Accords), why wouldn't she leave them behind to try and advance her plans elsewhere?
Tumblr media
I think that Rau and Durandal met shortly after Aura left. The exact year is hard to pin-point, but I assume it's been the same year (CE 63) and CE 65. This would make Rau between 17 and 19 years of age, matching his appearance in the flashbacks.
Why would Rau return to Mendel at this point? Funnily enough, Freedom provides a plausible answer to this!
With Aura gone, Durandal is presumably the new head of her previous research team. This also leaves him as the person in charge of whatever is left from her anti-aging program. Rau, who is literally dying of accelerated aging, has every reason to try and check out this research. It's plausible that the pills Durandal custom-makes for Rau are roughly based on the same medication that de-aged Aura. The de-aging itself is likely not an option for Rau as a) it seems to have left Aura incapable of ever going back to becoming an adult and b) it is unknown whether or not her physical transformation actually extended her lifespan at all. Further supporting this idea is the fact that Rey only goes symptomatic during the events of Destiny (Destiny Novel), when he is approximately ~16 years old. Being genetically identical, Rau might not have experienced any seizures or migraines until he was a teenager. His symptoms would make it necessary to seek out treatment in order to be able to continue his career unhindered.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Over their time as doctor and patient, Durandal goes intrigued with Rau. And how could he not? Rau is the shadow-side of everything that Durandal had venerated. Durandal had been creating designer babies with good intentions, but now one such created child is staring at him with hatred in his eyes. For the first time removed from Aura's direct influence and confronted with a person entirely unlike anything he'd seen before, Durandal can mature for the first time.
Seeing Rau teaches him about the unhappy byproducts of ambitions, and it also shows him that Coordinator supremacy is a load of bullshit. Rau is a Natural, a terminally ill one at that, but he's blending in with Coordinator society without issue. Between that and the first-hand knowledge that Naturals like Ulen Hibiki were also able to keep up with Durandal and Aura just fine, Durandal's view shifts more strongly. Coordinators may be all-rounder talents, but a Natural (when doing what they have aptitude for) would not lose to them. Unlike Aura, who is stewing in anti-Natural sentiments, Durandal is open to seeing the talents of others and adjusting his ideas accordingly. The rift forms.
Tumblr media
Sometime into Durandal and Rau's friendship, they find Rey who's still been isolated in a different laboratory. Rey would be between 6 and 10 years old at the time. Testament to the trust between them, Rau leaves raising Rey to Durandal. Durandal, now well into his 20s, is now actually of an age to be having children and also actually loves the person the child is tied to. It makes Rey fundamentally different from Orphee.
Tumblr media
Then in CE 68, Mendel has to close down due to a bio-hazardous incident. (I am fond of the theory that Rau is the cause of that incident and that's why he told Durandal to take Rey and move to the PLANTs beforehand.)
In CE 69, the existence of a ZAFT military is made public knowledge. Some of the Junius colonies are converted for food productions as PLANT takes real steps towards autonomy. By then, most Coordinators have fled Earth to the PLANTs.
The first PLANT-Alliance war begins CE 70. It continues into CE 71, the year Gundam SEED is set. Rey, then 13 years old, enters the military academy to follow in Rau's footsteps.
Meanwhile Aura is plotting on Earth, still believing Durandal to be fully on her side. She seems to be sorely mistaken.
When Durandal tries to enact his new version of the Destiny Plan (notable not featuring a masterrace) in CE 73, he never once calls on Aura for assistance. It stands to reason that he has emotionally and materially abandoned Aura and the Accords after meeting Rau. Fukuda himself has questioned whether Durandal was truly on Aura's side. (Live Talk Event) Further, fandom friend made the pretty salient point that Durandal personally handpicked Shinn as his ace. Shinn is a super-pilot notable for fighting purely on instinct and thus being impossible to defeat with psychic abilities. He's the perfect anti-Accord weapon. Had Durandal won, would he have had Shinn wipe out Aura and her children? We cannot know, but it's definitely possible.
The Durandal we see on the show earnestly believes that the Destiny Plan will be an equalizer between Naturals and Coordinators, bringing out Naturals' full abilities and allowing them to compete fairly. He does not seem to hold any specific Coordinator-supremacist view. Some of the most important people in his personal life (Rau and Rey) are Naturals. This is fundamentally at odds with the picture of him that Aura tries to paint. Durandal on the show wishes for Kira's death so no 'Ultimate' remains to imitate. By the same reasoning, he would want to get rid of the Accords so they cannot inspire greed and jealousy that would lead to more suffering like Rau's.
That's why I say that taking what Aura says about him at face value wholly destroys the character as had been established prior.
But laying out the backstory like this, I think we can peace it all back together into a consistent character. Was this the intended read? I do not know. It's the read I am going with anyway.
Despite being a nihilistic murderous maniac, Rau le Creuset did manage to change one man for the better. Even if 'better' only means 'slightly less deranged' in this case, I appreciate it on a thematic layer. Even a man who thinks of himself as wholly unlovable, as destruction incarnate, can bring about positive change simply by existing and being loved in spite of it all.

Poetic cinema: when Cyrano starts hallucinating (?) in Act V & eventually faces the front of the stage & says...
"Qu'est-ce que c'est tous ceux-là ?—Vous êtes mille ?" "Who are you all? Are there a thousand of you?"
...at the audience. Staring out at the crowd as if seeing them for the first time.
On the one hand, it's always good for a nervous laugh for the audience to break up a bona fide four-hanky finale.
But on the other, in the midst of Cyrano's dazed ramblings — the chant of the Gascony cadets, Copernicus this, Molière that — blindly addressing a "vous" that no-one else can see — speaking to the Grim Reaper as if there, tangible & visible before him — in the midst of all this, this line is a piercing moment of clarity between us & him. We've been getting a very good look at him for quite a while. We see him, naturally. But now, for the first time in 3 hours, he sees us.
(& on a third hand, bring out another hanky for when this line is addressed to a packed theatre. Cyrano, who's convinced that everyone finds him repulsive, sees that a thousand people have paid & stayed to see his story. Doubly poignant that Edmond Rostand wrote this thinking that Cyrano de Bergerac the play would be a flop ;-;)
Praise upon praise to productions who cause Cyrano to stare out into the auditorium at this line & sweep his gaze over the audience members 🤍 In a witty play full of subtle asides, a play that starts in a theatre (!!), this is the only 4th-wall break we have, & even then it can be played off as solely within the storyworld if the director wishes. Cyrano has a fatal head wound. Of course he can't see us, this is just part of his hallucinations.
In either case, the next line pointed at the audience is also good for a fond chuckle for our favourite bataillard, whose self-professed pleasure is to make new enemies:
"Ah ! je vous reconnais, tous mes vieux ennemis !" "Ah, I recognise you all, my old enemies!"
It segues us gently back into his delusions as he starts slashing at phantoms.
But there was a moment of doubt before! Was that really a delusion? A theatre character with one foot in the grave (or one foot on the other side of the curtain, so to speak) starts losing his mind & catches a brief glimpse of the audience. Of course, as the monologue continues, it's revealed exactly who/what Cyrano is addressing & he is safely enclosed back in the storyworld. But that shimmering moment, that stunned "who are all these people?" compels me 💗

"Ilia"
Finally got the reference sheets done! Meant to only do one, then 4, then 8, but looks like I wound up with 10!
Some basic notes for him! Then I will get into his techniques!
-His "human" form is not really a human or curse form. It is a reconstruction of his true human body from when he was alive (because of this, he tends to stay in his human form out of comfort and nostalgia, but still goes into his curse form).
-He is able to go into his human form by weaving a heavenly restriction into his soul using the strings from Puppetry. He has no cursed energy, no life force, and no soul when in his human form.
-Because of his no CE in human form, he actually takes cursed energy from the world around him to use Strings of Fate. It is why he is attracted to high population areas as well as high grade curses (he can also use Strings of Fate with life forces like from plants, but it is much weaker compared to using cursed energy).
-His strings can be visible or invisible. Most of the strings are visible except for the ones he uses to stand/sit on.
-His cursed form’s body has very flexible joints meaning that he can turn his arms around and have his back as his front (his fingers bend backwards to make themselves “upright” but he can just turn his arms around and keep his hands the same so they will be “upside down”).
-The upper left arm of his cursed form is two hands connected at the wrist. Both left hands. He tends to hold his own hands like a fist/praying gesture.
-His curse mouth is technically one big mouth that has 3 separate openings. Each set of teeth can open on their own.
-He has only one big long tongue in his mouth, which can come out of any opening. He has a lot of smaller tongues that can come out or not if he wants.
-The eyes on Ilia’s cursed form are not set in stone and can move. He usually only keeps one eye open unless he needs to look around. Since he can’t move his neck (as the right side of his face is fused where his right shoulder would be), he opens more eyes or turns his body fully in order to see around him.
-When Ilia is in a midpoint form, he is weaker than both his curse and human form. The only time he would use this form outside of aesthetics is if he needs another hand or his tongue but can’t turn into his cursed form immediately (otherwise he is either showing off, having fun, or pissed off and let his cursed form slip through).
-Both bodies are made of strings and so can change form similar to how Mahito changes his body around. This is why Ilia can have different hairstyles so easily (he always covers the right side of his face, otherwise he is cool with any hairstyle and can use the strings from other people and curses to dye his hair if he wants to).
I think that is all the basics of him that I want to make sure get known. Now I’ll talk about his 3 cursed techniques! (under the cut)
-Kiss of Life:
Kiss of Life was Ilia’s first technique when he was still alive (in my JJK Swap Universe). 
This technique involved the user kissing their opponent (much to Ilia’s disdain) in order to stun and read their minds.
An advantage of using this technique was the enhancing kisses. Kissing body parts, people, or even weapons could boost their attack or durability for a small time. 
I didn’t really think of a downside for this technique, but I think a good one would be that Ilia needs to hold his breath or breath very softly to keep the enhancement or stun going. So if he is out of breath and starts to rapidly breathe, he ends up losing the enhancements that his kisses did.
I think his maximum would be why his technique is named Kiss of Life. He has the ability to bring someone back to life with his kiss, but the downside is that it will almost kill him if he is not careful. He has to give every single bit of oxygen in his lungs and then some in order to revive someone. If he takes too long or hesitates, he could end up suffocating himself trying to bring back someone else. 
-Puppetry:
Once Ilia died, he was reborn in the OG JJK world as a cursed spirit (or vengeful spirit? One of them). His technique Kiss of Life had morphed into Puppetry. 
Similar to how he could get some control and stun an enemy with Kiss of Life, now Ilia could gain full control of people using strings instead of a kiss. Though he can actually turn his saliva into strings, so kissing someone and planting a bunch of strings in them is a midpoint between Kiss of Life and Puppetry.
His upper left arm (the one with two hands) can dig into the back of humans and control them like a puppet. Since he is in his curse form, most people can’t see him and so can get tricked by this technique into coming over to him. He is also able to steal people’s voices which I think would happen when he uses his tongue to infect people with strings.
For the most part, he acted like a regular curse for a long time before he played around some more with his puppet strings. From there, he was able to realize his past life and worked on trying to get back his old body.
It was thanks to Puppetry that he was able to change his soul around, and make a heavenly bind to allow himself to change his body (which gave both forms the ability to change body parts using strings). Which also granted both forms the ability to use the ability Weave.
I don’t think that his cursed form has a maximum technique, or possibly that is what he gave up in order to create his human form with a binding vow.
-Strings of Fate:
This is the most thought out of the techniques I have for Ilia. First because it was the first real technique I thought of for him, but also because he has been in this form for so long he played and perfected his technique over time.
Instead of having cursed energy, life force, or a soul, he instead becomes a conduit for the cursed energy around him. He doesn’t create the strings himself, instead he takes it from the world and uses it to his advantage. Because of this, people like Gojo, Toji, Mahito, and Hanami can’t sense Ilia as a person, only the cursed energy he is bending.
Weave: Other than the strings themselves, this ability is the most basic of the technique. Ilia is able to use the threads of life and cursed energy around him to create things. Usually it is weapons, but he can push the ability further to weave together souls (this is a version of Maximum: Kiss of Life). 
The only problem with this is that Ilia needs a few strands from the person who is dead, otherwise he can’t recreate their souls and revive them. It is hard to get a string from someone or something that is dead, so the next best solution is to go to the person who killed them, or the item used to kill them, and take a string remnant to use to weave a soul back to life.
Ocular Strands: Ilia’s ability to see the strings of life all around him. He can read people’s history and lives using this ability. The closer he is, the easier it is to see. Sometimes he has to be right up on the person or thing to get a clear picture. (He can use this ability with his eyes closed). One of his favorite things to do is go up to trees and put his head against the bark to read the stories that they tell.
Stitching/Stitch: (I forgot to draw this one) This is where Ilia takes his strings and just stitches things together. It’s kind of an offshoot of Weave except he is not creating something, instead temporarily fusing things together. Because this is not his own cursed energy, he can use it to heal others, both humans and curses. It is easy for him to make strands positive or negative. 
He can also stitch himself to others if wanted to. Think of how Franken Stein from Soul Eater has Soul Thread Sutures, and that is basically how stitching can work. He stitches himself to people to keep contact with them which helps with other abilities.
Another facet of this ability is the self heal properties. Almost any real damage Ilia takes can be healed immediately by Stitching. If Sukuna or anyone tried to cut his head off, Stitching would immediately heal the wound before it became a death sentence.
Intertwine: Ilia is able to intertwine his body with another person’s soul, effectively making himself a voodoo doll. Any damage that happens to him will also happen to the person intertwined with. Contact needs to be maintained either by a string or direct contact. Simple strings can be easily broken and physical contact can be pushed away. The best way for Ilia to keep sure that contact is consistent is to temporarily stitch himself to his opponent.
Blocking: An offshoot of Stitching is Blocking. Here the strings weave together a barrier that can be inside a person or outside in the general area.
If inside a person, it stops any cursed energy from crossing it. So let’s say that one of Hanami’s cursed buds were on your hand, Blocking at the wrist or elbow would effectively stop the bud from ever growing. The downside is that now there is NO cursed energy at all in that hand. There is no heavenly restriction either so upi don’t get a boost from losing your cursed energy.
If outside in the general area, Blocking can be used as a shield. In this regard it is combining Weave and Stitch together to create a shield out of strings. Think of it as just a woven sheet that will stop cursed energy from coming through. The downside is it takes a lot of energy out of the area meaning you need a lot of people or cursed spirits around to use this ability.
Maximum: Ilia’s maximum technique (I don’t have a name for it at the moment) is an arrow of strings that he makes using all cursed energy and life force around him. It draws from absolutely everything, even the opponent,  in order to make a very powerful arrow.
Once shot, it pierces straight through the opponent and gets even stronger now that it is stealing all the cursed energy and life force from that person and leaving a trail of strings back towards Ilia’s hand.
The arrow stops going forward and starts to spin around, connecting its own strings to that of the person it just impaled. It continues to spin until the person is completely crushed and unwoven within the small diameter of the initial string.
Ilia then is able to draw the string back and absorb the person’s strings. The downside of this technique is that Ilia has to use all the strings he absorbed before he can start taking from the world again. 
So usually using this technique will actually harm Ilia if he has to keep fighting because none of his attacks or defenses will be as strong as before since he is relying on a limited amount of cursed energy. This is why he only uses this technique if it’s a last resort or if there is only one person left, because leaving that window of opportunity open for the enemy is not something he can just risk doing.
______________
And I think that is everything for his techniques! I’m sure there are more that I am forgetting, but at least that is all the super important stuff I wanted to make sure gets known about him! :D

Gojo vs Sukuna Round 1 - Battle Analysis
(Chapters 223-230, eight parts)
This is going to be an analysis and overview of the first part of this decisive battle. Some points are going to be assumptions made by me with the current information available. If you have questions or corrections, leave a comment or ask me directly.
Tumblr media
Part 1 - Beginning
First attack: Gojo - 200% Hollow Purple (made with the help of other sorcerers). Sukuna on defence due to misjudgment of the attack, has to heal both of his arms.
Uraume has been missing since then.
Part 2 - Hand to Hand
Possibly the Mahoraga hand sign hidden in the gutter between the last panel of the first page and the first panel of the second page; alternatively, Sukuna has performed the hand sign earlier or at an unseen moment later. However, Mahoraga's wheel will be summoned before the Domain Battles start but as long as Sukuna's isn't the medium of the wheel, Mahoraga will not gain any adaptations.
Hand to Hand combat starts with cursed energy amplified hits and kicks. Gojo uses Blue and Red to pull and repel and has infinity activated. Sukuna uses Domain Amplification (DA) and Dismantle.
Domain Amplification creates an empty space around the user (a domain without a technique imbued in it) which lets cursed techniques (CT) flow inside which leads to their neutralization. Effective against Gojo's ultimate defense.
Part 3 - First Domain Fight
A Domain Clash happens when the domains' barriers, the shells, clash with each other. The user with the more refined Domain Expansion (DE) wins. Sukuna's open barrier domain doesn't have a shell so Gojo's and Sukuna's domains overlap with each other instead of clashing and because they're evenly matched, no one dominates.
Sukuna's open Domain expands past the shell of Gojo's which makes it a target of Sukuna's sure-hit attack on the weaker outside. Inside Gojo's Domain the sure-hit attacks cancel each other out everywhere they overlap but they don't overlap in 100% of the space!
Gojo is immune to Unlimited Void's (UV) effect, so his sure-hit covers the entirety of his domain but Sukuna's sure-hit doesn't. Sukuna willingly left the space he occupies inside the domain free of his own sure-hit. During the cancellation of the sure-hit commands, UV is not cancelled 100% and hits Sukuna every time he doesn't use DA.
Tumblr media
(Ugly drawing by me)
The way he shoulders those sure-hit attacks is by (as I understood it) dislodging his soul partly from Megumi's body. Normally, this would lead to Megumi taking over (if he still can after being submerged in evil) but because Megumi is hit by UV, Megumi's mind shuts down leaving Sukuna still in control.
However, by dislodging his soul from Megumi's body, Sukuna loses the ability to use his own CT (he needs a body for that) except the one already imbued in the domain. He probably doesn't use the other shikigami as well because he can't summon them without being in complete control of Megumi.
Important Note: this is the explanation that I have come up with. Sukuna only talks about using the 10 Shadows Technique to shoulder the adaptation onto Megumi. As of right now (chapter 230) we have no further explanation on what that means or how it works.
First Domain Battle, Winner: Sukuna (Malevolent Shrine (MS) still stands)
Gojo is hit by MS's sure-hit.
Part 4
Due to Gojo's CE reinforcement, Cleave only makes a moderate amount of damage but the damage still has to be healed. Gojo uses Reverse Cursed Technique (RCT) to create positive energy while he suffers from Cursed Technique Burn-out which prevents him from teleporting to safety.
Sukuna's sure-hit continuous Cleave attacks don't overpower Gojo's RCT
Gojo uses Simple Domain (weaker version of DA but uses more space) to cancel MS's sure-hit. Gojo uses both CE and Positive Energy at the same time.
CT Burnt-out can't be healed by RCT. It's an engine that runs too hot but there is nothing repair. To activate his technique earlier, Gojo destroys the part of the brain where Innate Techniques are created, then he heals that part again to start with a new CT.
Gojo uses Cursed Technique Reversal Red successfully on Sukuna.
Part 5
Gojo eggs Sukuna on to expand his domain to the maximum. At the same time, Gojo expands his own domain again with the conditions of the interior and exterior exchanged.
The sure-hit of MS inside UV'S range is turned off with a binding vow that increases the potency of the sure-hit outside. MS's maximum reach is also made smaller to increase the effect of the sure-hit active outside UV's shell. Sukuna bypasses UV's sure-hit by touching Gojo and destroys Gojo's domain from the outside again.
Second Domain Battle, Winner: Sukuna (MS still stands)
Gojo is attacked by sure-hit Cleave again but he uses Falling Blossom Emotion (FBE), a secret anti-domain technique first used by Naobito, to repel Sukuna's attacks making them extremely shallow.
Gojo activates his Domain a third time but this one becomes extremely large before turning tiny. By decreasing the size of his domain's shell to such a degree, Gojo increases the potency of his sure-hit.
Part 6
Sukuna is shrinking MS's effective reach to increase the output of his CT because UV's outer shell is still stronger. Sukuna attacks Gojo's domain from the outside until it breaks, this takes 3 minutes. In that time however, the fight inside the domain continues and in the same 3 minutes, Gojo injures Sukuna so heavily (crushing his heart) that Sukuna can't maintain MS.
Third Domain Battle, Winner: Tie (No domain stands)
The hand to hand part of the battle continues. Gojo wonders why Sukuna hasn't used any techniques like the 10 Shadow Technique (10ST) (or his fire arrow) while inside the domain battle to attack him or to destroy the weak interior of UV's shell.
The reason for that is, again, Sukuna not being in complete synchronicity with Megumi's body, making him unable to use his own techniques or those of Megumi. (Theory)
Meanwhile Mahoraga's wheel is using Megumi's soul as its medium to adapt to Gojo's techniques. This has only worked on UV because that was the only technique that reached Megumi. As long as the wheel isn't on Sukuna, attacks that reach him don't adapt Mahoraga.
Tumblr media
Important question about this kind of use: is "the bottom of the abyss" where Megumi's soul is right now, more than just a metaphorical representation of Megumi's plight? It seems that it's a physical location, or enough of one at least, for the wheel to be used like that. Maybe it's both.
But if the wheel can get inside, then, theoretically, Megumi('s soul) can get out in the same manner. Through the shadows probably.
Part 7
Sukuna and Gojo clash in another domain battle with the same conditions as the last one. Sukuna is confirmed to use the same "destroy and heal your brain" method as Gojo to recover his CTs. The battle ends again in 3 minutes.
Fourth Domain Battle, Winner: Tie (No domain stands)
Another domain battles starts. Because Sukuna had to heal himself first, his domain expands 0.01 seconds later than Gojo's. Sukuna is hit by UV before he can detach himself from Megumi's body, making him just a tiny bit weaker than before. With this weakness, Gojo manages to collapse Sukuna's Domain after 2 minutes and 40 seconds.
Sukuna has not detached himself from Megumi in time to avoid being hit by UV and he suffers its effect for 10 seconds BUT he still detaches himself while under UV to finish the summon of Mahoraga who had already adapted to UV through Megumi as a medium. Mahoraga destroys Gojo's Domain before Gojo can kill it.
Fifth Domain Battle, Winner: Gojo (Gojo's domain gets later destroyed by Mahoraga)
Part 8 - The End of the Domains
On the second panel of the second page, Sukuna heals his brain. Gojo thinks that Megumi only "shouldered the adaptation" and wasn't effected by UV. I don't know if that is correct. One could argue that a soul alone can't be that affected by UV like an actual brain. We'll see if this part gets another explanation in future chapters.
Gojo points out that only Mahoraga has adapted to UV and Sukuna is still vulnerable to it and he prepares to expand another domain. This fails because Gojo overused his brain-destroying method of recovering his burnt-out techniques.
Sukuna wants to close the barrier of his next domain to prevent Gojo from running away. He also summons Mahoraga's wheel onto his body to make Mahoraga adapt to infinity while he fights Gojo.
Sukuna expands his Domain but it gets destroyed immediately. Sukuna was under UV for less than 10 seconds and healed his brain afterwards but the damage he received was so great that his DE destroyed itself with additional damage to his brain.
Hand to Hand combat resumes with the narrator saying that Round 2 has started.
