a being of chaos, a chaos that hungers forever and on — craving discord and destruction, awakened by this. . . underlying hatred for the world, a hatred unknown. what caused this to stir in the first place?

taking form of a giant serpant that many write about in their numerous mythologies across the eras. too busy sucking out the souls from their physical bodies and luring them into the waters of his river, his lake. tearing them open and degrading them from entering the vicinity. stupid humans, stupid, stupid mortals.

why enter the ever dawn when it is rumored to be a place where none come out of once they enter? was their deaths not enough to satisfy their knowledge, did they truly have to go search? stupid, mortal, creature.

the being has no love for this world. . . why?

꒰ personality ꒱

alluring and charming, a silver-tongued, cunning and deceptive being which thrives off of discord and feeds on resentment.

carries himself in an eerily calm manner, an effortless cool confidence following wherever he may step.

when displaying wrath and malice, it is usually put into a serene and calm font, his enchanting voice misleading you into false safety.

deceitful, loves spinning the truth and playing mind games on people.

sinister — you find him often delighting in chaos, unafraid to step on a few eggs if it means he can have his way.

a master of manipulation, the rhitaari indulges in sadism of the highest degrees and often gives into his violent tendencies.

a sociopath, far from forgiving.

eager to put people in their place and remind them of his power, all with a smile on his face, laced with kindness.

he is patient, yet determined and willing to do whatever it takes to achieve his goals.

in spite of his general aura of elegance and control, talisen can be quite erratic and even impulsive; something that can lead to catastrophic evens.

despite his malevolence, the rhitaari can as a matter of fact extend kindness to those he deems worthy of it. he does not fancy hurting the innocent. . . unless they can be used as leverage.

he is a possessive man, and has a tendency to grow beyond obsessive over the ones who hold his heart, which can result in quite the yandere behaviors from him.

though, he may be this confident being, it all ultimately falls short when the deeper parts of his soul are observed.

he is deeply wounded from the past. ashamed and guilty from the choices that he made and commit to. . . though, the show must go on, must it not?

 

꒰ with a lover ꒱

sweet and gentle with a lover, caring and nurturing

so many possessive undertones, hidden well by his deceptive behaviour. he is most definitely yandere esque. wants you all for himself — so that he can put you into his and his husbands’ cottage, and keep you there. where you can just simply be, and enjoy life them

always doing his best to assure that you are feeling good. and when you are not he’s immediately running to you to bring you comfort or whatever it is that you may need

dances you around the cottage or the forest grove, singing soft melodies to you

composes many poems and songs for you

very touch starved man, which means his hands are always resting on you, whether it be your hips, waist, thighs, shoulders — anything he can touch really

when you are not around him to touch, cuddle or simply speak to — he gets irritated very quickly

can be extremely teasing and flirty. especially with his words and touches. can get exceptionally touchy

can pretty much the definition of a puppy that forgets how big it really is. randomly picking you up and slinging you around gently, or simply just holding you close, stealing kisses and randomly throwing you into bed to cuddle

expect lots of random midnight walks

sooooo many kisses and huggles through the day

 

꒰ strengths ꒱

alluring song and beauty: his songs and beauty are enchanting, much like that of a siren. he is able to put people in trances with this and lure them to their watery demise.

he is proficient with enchantments, and often uses them for his mischievous deeds, causing discord and chaos wherever he may step foot. also uses enchantments to his advantage as a way of drawing in wanderers and onlookers into his river.

illusions: born with these illusionary powers even before he was a rhytaari, he has now mastered the skill of creating entire empires in one simple flick of the wrist. this means when you walk into one of his illusionary fields you may experience intense brain fog, nausea and start hallucinating, as you are walking into something that is seemingly real but isn’t. he uses this method to also lure people to him and kill them.

charms: he has taught himself charms throughout his years, using them to make people tell him things when they refuse to do so.

teleportation: the ability to travel from one place to another instantly, with so much as a thought. this includes multiversal and realm teleportation.

silver tongue: something he has always wielded, he can be both incredibly deceptive and convincing. able to work his way around someone’s head and pull at them like the strings of a puppet. he is talented in the ways of manipulation.

mind-reading: the ability of telepathy, however, he can only do such if he is deeply connected to the person or know the person very well.

shapeshifting: the ability to shift his form into whatever he so desires, this can range from different people and beings to animals.

divinity: he is considered to be a corrupt god and therefore obtains catastrophic abilities, that of which allows him to quite literally have the ability to rip into universes

its late. my bad (this is dogpastra's main) on "lankmann siccing the fucking ECPD on alex"

OH MY GOD THIS LOOKS AMAZING

they’ve been through a lot in a short time, haven’t they? First the kids go missing, then they’re stuck working for a shady ass company that actively harms the people they say they’re helping. They wind up befriending a veldigun through the power of subway and try to hide from their boss, only for him to find out anyway and have to flee their home for who knows how long or else risk being gunned down by the cops. At least they’re not completely alone?

Don’t worry Alex, it’s gonna get easier! (It’s not.)

[vendetta-if]

Ros, reaction if they saw a hickey on the mc ( crush stage)

Ash

They freeze in place, every other thought processes in their head stop as they focus on the marks on MC’s neck. Those… Those are not what they think they are, right?

…Who are they kidding? With the realization and acceptance, comes the wave of nausea. They feel sick and they’re having a hard time breathing, as if they’ve been punched in the stomach.

As a pyrokinetic, they have never really felt the effects of extreme temperatures, but right now they feel hot and cold inside at the same time—at least this must be how it feels for other people. They’re burning from rage and jealousy, the fire only slightly doused by the heartbreak and regret.

MC greets them with a beautiful smile and they try to put on a smile, but even they can feel it twists into a grimace instead. MC frowns in concern and they already know they’re going to ask them what’s wrong. But before that can happen, they quickly excuse themself and stride away as fast they can.

You’re such a coward, Ash. You run away from your problem once again…

Rin

As soon as their perceptive eyes notice the marks, they feel such a strong mix of emotions that they’ve never really felt before. They manage to keep their composure on the outside but barely.

Jealousy, disappointment, bitterness, betrayal, heartbreak, all run rampant in them, making them feel sick. They don’t like this and their current attempts to squash down these pesky feelings fail.

They should’ve known not to naïvely open their heart to anyone that quick, even someone they’ve known for a long time like MC. You’re really sure that something was budding between you and MC. Seems like you’re wrong.

They still can’t decide on whether to try confront MC about the marks calmly or to give MC the cold shoulder until MC asks them what’s wrong.

Santana

They feel crushed and disappointed. There’s no other way to put it. Of course, MC was not serious. They could’ve had anyone in this city that they want, why choose an insignificant, overworked detective in the ECPD.

They don’t hold it against MC, though. Them and MC were not even formally dating. Just a series of flirtations here and there, nothing serious, but enough to get their hopes up. Well, it was nice while it lasted.

Skylar

They try not to show it outside, still grinning and keeping up the unbothered experience. But there’s no lying, it stings. They feel a bit jealous and disappointed and kinda hurt.

Does MC lose interest in them? Maybe all the flirtations were nothing but non-serious teasings and they’re just misreading MC’s actions? They kinda doubt that.

But not all hopes are lost. Honestly, they kinda understand if MC was just hooking up with someone. They don’t really have any right to stop MC from doing that considering they’re not officially a couple yet. Maybe MC is still interested in having a more serious relationship with them?

For their sanity, it’s better to get the clear cut answer with MC now. If there’s really nothing between them, then they can still be friends and get on with their lives. But if there’s something indeed, then they won’t give up on MC that easily.

Sauntering over to where MC is standing, they steel themself to ask MC frankly. It might be a good idea to frame the question lightheartedly as well, despite what they’re feeling inside.

[doodle-girl]

In the sitcom au since canonically the lankmann foundation gives the ECPD hush money, what if lankmann decided to name alex a wanted criminal or some shit. idk it probably doesnt fit well but the idea came to my head

[tnbc-lover]

So when Clyde goes back to Alex's house for the photo album, you think the ECPD or even the Foundation would see it and follow it back to the hiding spot?

So there's just a little bit of a gap between running and being found again? And if this does happen, I like to imagine the new running leads to Simon and Flock to get the people off their trail.

Pair this with the veldigunification of Alex road of this AU- Quite a big mess has been made.

(got this all from the one comic made about people eater, I just saw it and cannot remember who made it {apologies !!} {It was @fandomfuntimem } the frame with eyes above Alex's old house made me think about this)

Heroes of Empires City - chapter 1

AO3 for anyone who has an easier time reading there :}

More about characters: Part 1 & Part 2

Villains and magical beasts and monsters were just a few of the many daily threats looming over Empires City. Lucky for its resident it was also home to the Hero Agency. An organisation helping its six registered heroes keep the city safe from any supernatural, superpowered or inhuman danger.

Scott, or Major, has recently been accepted into the Agency and one of his first assignments is helping their relationship with the local sheriff. Sounds easy, doesn't it…

______________________________

Chapter 1

"Let's welcome our new heroes Major and Shrub," Katherine, the head of Empires City Hero Association announced and Scott did a little bow to the senior heroes. He did not raise from his seat, that seemed like a bit much considering they were all supposed to be equal. And he saw Shrub do the same out of the corner of his eye.

There were Tinkerer and Amethyst, they were speculations to be siblings but with how covered by his costume Tinkerer was - there was really not a single bit of him visible from under it, it was a bit hard to actually tell if there was any resemblance. The slightly creepy, blank mask Amethyst covered her face with did not help. Sanctuary who he kind of already knew, he was there during the recruitment tests. Mostly to take care of any wounds with his healing powers. And was probably the most popular among children. Scott would know, he worked at a daycare place before applying to be a hero and saw a lot of Sanctuary toys. And there was Stratos, the oldest and most well-known hero in the city. Controlling thunder made for a showy and impressive power even if it could cause major power outages and even change the weather if his fights drew out for too long. His toys were popular with kids, particularly boys too. All the heroes were and Scott found himself dreading the release of the first toy based on him... He was not that great with kids.

Scott was very lucky to be accepted with the frankly mediocre control of his ice powers, there were any better, in his opinion, candidates. He probably just looked better fro the media with his snowy white wings. The appearance was a big part of being a hero. Inspiring people or something like that. He was very determined to show that he deserved to be a pro hero. At least he didn't look scared to be there unlike Shrub. He remembered her and her nature powers from the test. It was a bit shocking she was accepted with powers so close to Sanctuary's. Well, it wasn't like she could heal with hers. And her mushrooms were very useful in capturing villains if she could get close enough. And her toys would probably be popular with little girls. Amethyst was a bit too regal with her whole Grand Wizard theme.

With the introductions done, Katherine moved to assign them patrol routes for the week. Scott was to follow Tinkerer for his first week and Shrub was with Sanctuary. Just so they could learn the ropes and then they were on their own. The patrols were mostly for the show anyway. Small things not including individuals with super powers were usually left to the police unless there were civilians in danger.

"Another thing, the mayor is disappointed with our poor relationship with the ECPD and wants one of you guys to follow the sheriff about, just one day a week," Katherine said with a heavy sigh. "Any volunteers? No Stratos you're out for this," she said, quickly cutting their number one off as he rise his arm. 

Scott briefly wondered why, before offering that he can go. "Maybe the sheriff will be a bit less hostile to a newer hero?" he offered as everyone stared at him. If no one wanted to do it then why not start on this proving himself worthy of his license thing? And their local sheriff was a very cute one so even if it would be suffering he'd have someone handsome to look at. Respectfully.

Katherine probably didn't feel like arguing with the senior heroes so she just dismissed everyone. Scott would, or Major would be introduced to the sheriff the next day, the first day he was supposed to follow him and his work. For the whole day. What did he get himself into...

"Don't worry about the sheriff, he's not that bad just... a bit much and most of us would rather not bother him too much, and who knows," Tinkerer assured him through his voice-modulating mask. Scott had one on himself. Heroes' private identities were important to keep secret so any hero who could not modify their voice in other ways was equipped with one. In Empires City they were all of Tinkerer's design. Even if he limited the use of his very destructive fire powers his inventions managed to keep him comfortably at the same level as other high-rank heroes. A lot of their support gear was designed by him. "He just might about tolerate you since you're new but if he tries anything tell me and I'll deal with him," Scott was pretty sure the man was smiling under the mask but not completely sure. The massive goggles covering the rest of his face did not help in the slightest.

"I'll just have to show him we're not here to make his job obsolete or something," Scott shrugged, stretching his wings slightly when they left the building. "Narrow spaces are not the best for the feathers," he sighed as he followed Tinkerer.

All in all the patrol was uneventful other than them helping some elderly with groceries and crossing the street. And some media took photos of them as they walked across one of the bigger parks. Tinkerer gave out a lot of autographs and took a lot of photos. Scott was actually asked for a few too. Probably as a preparation for him becoming more well-known. That was what patrols were. A big PR move to let people see the heroes, interact with them and feel like they are less of that distant paragon. Like they are people with a job too. Same with visiting hospitals and schools. It beat just sitting in the office and waiting for a villain to attack.

"Appearances like this keep the public happy and feeling safe and make us look more approachable," Tinkerer explained as they were about to have their break. Not even other heroes knew each other's identities. Not unless they decided to share it so they were about to separate to have their food at two different places that had a contract with the Agency to feed the heroes in private when they were out and could not just hide in their fancy offices on the top floors of their building. One of the few perks they enjoyed.

"Makes sense... I worked with children recently, they were super excited about heroes," Scott admitted with a light chuckle. "A lot of hero toys..."

Tinkerer made an uncomfortable noise. "I hate those but at least the profits go to pay all the people helping us keep the city safe and charities and a whole bunch of other cool things," he chuckled back and they separated to get their food. If they did know their identities they could eat together but it was a bit soon to share it just yet. Scott just got hired and it wasn't yet sure he'd actually stay for long. Or how long. He was determined to make it but who knew what might happen.

As he was returning home Scott was not physically tired but his mental stamina was drained pretty low. Just walking around the city was nothing compared to keeping his hero persona up. The calm, cold collected Major was different from the relaxed, laid-back and flirty Scott. But seeing small children look at him and Tinkerer with sparkles in their eyes was pretty rewarding. Especially the gasps as he moved his wings just a little bit. Realising they were real was a big positive shock to them.

"Xor?" he called out, locking the door. Officially every hero's civilian persona worked at the Agency to make it easier for them to go in and out of the building. "You home?" he called out again as his brother stayed silent. It wasn't his stream day nor band practice day but he could be lost in a programming project.

"I'm home!" finally came an answer from Xornoth's room, followed soon after by Scott's older twin himself. He was dressed unusually well for a not performance day. Even on those he didn't put that much effort in. "Hi. I'm going on a date," he grinned pushing a strand of long, dark-purple hair back. "Any ideas what I should do with my hair?"

Scott hummed for a second. Since when was Xor interested in dates? And looking good. "Just leave it out, it looks good," he finally said. "And how and when did you even find a date? You only leave for coffee and band stuff," Scott could not help but ask. He was genuinely curious how that managed to happen.

"At a band thing actually," Xornoth grinned still fussing with his hair. "We stayed at the bar we were performing at to celebrate and there was this cute bartender so I asked him out while Ollie bothered his boss, and he said yes. How was the first day of being a hero?"

Even if Scott was feeling a bit sus about the whole sudden boyfriend thing - he doubted it would last long, he moved to talking about his day. As boring as it was Xornoth was genuinely interested. He had no powers and always supported Scott on his long journey to being a pro hero. "If anyone asks I'm just a random clerk at the PR department looking over social media to see what people think about the heroes," he explained the whole cover story. Xor was all about the secret identity thing.

"That's still a cool thing," he said with a grin.

They chatted a bit more about hero stuff while Xornoth waited for his date to pick him up. At least the guy had his own car, which gained him a bit of respect from Scott. But he was still not sure he'd approve. He finally had a chance to return all the critique his former boyfriends faced from his brother and did not intend to go easy on this Joey guy.

Soon enough - a bit late, the Joey guy finally showed up and to say Scott was not impressed would be an understatement. He looked like he just tossed whatever nicer clothes he had on and put no additional effort into the date. Scott said nothing but did give him a bit of a stink-eye during the introduction. And continued glaring until they left.

And Scott was alone. 

It felt weird to be alone so he did what any logical person in his situation would do - went to a bar. Not the Smithy the band Xor was in frequented. That would feel weird and there was a big chance someone recognised him as Xor's relative. He didn't need that tonight. And he could always say he was celebrating a new job. He couldn't say what exactly he was doing but hey. An excuse is an excuse no matter how bad. Right?

He was three drinks in and barely feeling it - superpowers made getting drunk a challenge when some unpleasant fellow started bothering him. And was very unpleasant and clearly drunk while doing it. And did not take a 'no' for an answer no matter how much Scott pushed him away. He did his best to keep his body's temperature as close to normal as possible but it still brought more nasty comments. Something about warming him up and Scott was very not about it.

"I'm waiting for some friends, sorry, I'm busy..." Scott tried getting the guy to leave and failed miserably. The creep was not even in the slightest his type. Too short and well build. He really preferred tall men.

"*cough* Sorry but I must ask you to stop bothering my friend. Sorry, I'm late," suddenly someone saved him from the creep.

Scott didn't listen to the excuses the man-made as he slunk away, focusing on his saviour. The sheriff himself was standing next to him with a relaxed smile. He looked even cuter in person, the young hero had to admit. No, not pretty, handsome as hell fit him much better. A whole meal and no snack kind of man. Just Scott's type and probably very unavailable. For many reasons, their jobs, the sheriff not liking heroes, there was no way someone like that was single. 

"You okay?" the sheriff asked taking a step back. In the middle of all that he stood quite close to Scott, not that he was complaining. 

"Now? Yes. That guy just would not stop," Scott sighed, finally relaxing. Maybe he could come back to enjoying his evening. "Thank you for the help," he smiled. It was really hard to not start hard flirting with the man.

"It's nothing, I don't like people like that. Mind if I sit here? I kind of just came here on a whim and don't really know what to do with myself now."

Who was Scott to say no to the sheriff himself so they started chatting? Scott slowed down on the drinks to not get too far with those and accidentally say something he shouldn't say. He still slowly moved into flirting, but only when the sheriff let a small flirty comment slip out. And from then it somehow devolved into a battle of innuendos and flirts. And, once again Scott's not sure quite how even if he was mostly sober. Jimmy, as the sheriff introduced himself, not that Scott didn't know it, was damn distracting with those pretty eyes and smile of his. They ended up in a hotel, making out and tearing each other's clothes off like a pair of horny teens.

"You sure you're okay? You're kind of cold," Jimmy breathed out as they broke for air. Resting his forehead against Scott's.

"Yeah... I just run a bit colder... power side effect," Scott explained with a small smile. He had no idea how he got this far but he was not about to overthink things. There would probably not be another chance like this, like ever. "And leaves a big ass snowflake on my back, it's frankly a bit annoying, bye-bye short sleeves," he joked to hopefully distract the sheriff from his power 'matching' the new hero. And came back to kissing and undressing the handsome sheriff for good measure.

Welcome to the Cyberwave Blog, a blog about two sci-fi universes! First things first, what are Sigma and Cyberstream?

SIGMA

• No magic

• Takes place around 2067, in Empress City.

• Is named after the largest tech company in that universe, Sigma Technologies.

• Has three humanoid species: Human, Variant Human, and Droid.

SIGMA STORYLINES

Cyberstream and Sigma are AUs of each other. There will usually be an alternate version of one major storyline. Both universes are my original work! I'd like you to ask about a specific universe or major storyline to start off this blog, it'd help me a lot! There may be art occasionally, but expect mostly written replies.

(If you want to know the cast of a specific storyline, just ask me that and I'll list all the characters, maybe even some art of them!)

𖹭. despite his malevolence, the rhitaari can as a matter of fact extend kindness to those he deems worthy of it. he does not fancy hurting the innocent. . . unless they can be used as leverage.

𖹭. he is a possessive man, and has a tendency to grow beyond obsessive over the ones who hold his heart, which can result in quite the yandere behaviors from him.

𖹭. though, he may be this confident being, it all ultimately falls short when the deeper parts of his soul are observed.

𖹭. he is deeply wounded from the past. ashamed and guilty from the choices that he made and commit to. . . though, the show must go on, must it not?

. ˚◞꒰with a lover꒱

𖹭. sweet and gentle with a lover, caring and nurturing

𖹭. so many possessive undertones, hidden well by his deceptive behaviour. he is most definitely yandere esque. wants you all for himself — so that he can put you into his and his husbands’ cottage, and keep you there. where you can just simply be, and enjoy life them

𖹭. always doing his best to assure that you are feeling good. and when you are not he’s immediately running to you to bring you comfort or whatever it is that you may need

𖹭. dances you around the cottage or the forest grove, singing soft melodies to you

𖹭. composes many poems and songs for you

𖹭. very touch starved man, which means his hands are always resting on you, whether it be your hips, waist, thighs, shoulders — anything he can touch really

𖹭. when you are not around him to touch, cuddle or simply speak to — he gets irritated very quickly

𖹭. can be extremely teasing and flirty. especially with his words and touches. can get exceptionally touchy

𖹭. can pretty much the definition of a puppy that forgets how big it really is. randomly picking you up and slinging you around gently, or simply just holding you close, stealing kisses and randomly throwing you into bed to cuddle

𖹭. expect lots of random midnight walks

𖹭. sooooo many kisses and huggles through the day

 ˚◞꒰strengths꒱

𖹭. alluring song and beauty: his songs and beauty are enchanting, much like that of a siren. he is able to put people in trances with this and lure them to their watery demise.

𖹭. he is proficient with enchantments, and often uses them for his mischievous deeds, causing discord and chaos wherever he may step foot. also uses enchantments to his advantage as a way of drawing in wanderers and onlookers into his river.

𖹭. illusions: born with these illusionary powers even before he was a rhytaari, he has now mastered the skill of creating entire empires in one simple flick of the wrist. this means when you walk into one of his illusionary fields you may experience intense brain fog, nausea and start hallucinating, as you are walking into something that is seemingly real but isn’t. he uses this method to also lure people to him and kill them.

𖹭. charms: he has taught himself charms throughout his years, using them to make people tell him things when they refuse to do so.

𖹭. teleportation: the ability to travel from one place to another instantly, with so much as a thought. this includes multiversal and realm teleportation.

𖹭. silver tongue: something he has always wielded, he can be both incredibly deceptive and convincing. able to work his way around someone’s head and pull at them like the strings of a puppet. he is talented in the ways of manipulation.

𖹭. mind-reading: the ability of telepathy, however, he can only do such if he is deeply connected to the person or know the person very well.

𖹭. shapeshifting: the ability to shift his form into whatever he so desires, this can range from different people and beings to animals.

𖹭. divinity: he is considered to be a corrupt god and therefore obtains catastrophic abilities, that of which allows him to quite literally have the ability to rip into universes

. ˚◞꒰weaknesses꒱

𖹭. a very special thing. . .

. ˚◞꒰story꒱

a being of chaos, a chaos that hungers forever and on — craving discord and destruction, awakened by this. . . underlying hatred for the world, a hatred unknown. what caused this to stir in the first place?

was it the loss of something?

someone?

who is to say, the former reaper rhitaari is too busy to explain his history to anyone who approaches him. too busy with sucking out the souls from their physical bodies and luring them into the waters of his river, his lake. tearing them open and degrading them from entering the vicinity. stupid humans, stupid, stupid mortals.

why enter the ever dawn when it is rumored to be a place where none come out of once they enter? was their deaths not enough to satisfy their knowledge, did they truly have to go search? stupid, mortal, creature.

the being has no love for this world. . . why?

who is to say?

none will, the mouths that were once able to are dirt filled and bone now.

LETS FUCKING JOE ITS DONE

Chapter 4 Public Update 🎉

First of all: Happy new year, everyone 🥳🎊 I wish all of you an awesome year ahead!

Now, on to the Chapter Update! Chapter 4 contains 46K words which brings the total word count to 189K words! Chapter 4 is actually the largest update yet that I've done in a month clocking at 46K words instead of the usual 20-30K words update (I really pushed myself this month, didn't I 😅)

However, this update doesn't just bring the entirety of Chapter 4, but also some new and tweaked stuff on the previous chapters. So, I would recommend playing from the beginning if you want to see what's changed for yourself. I'll list out things I changed from the previous chapter below.

Now, a lot of you are probably aware of this already, but some of the things you'll do in this chapter are:

Meet Yvette and finally have a proper conversation with her (a lot of variations and different decisions).

Choose what you feel about her now. Do the years soften your hatred for her? Or maybe they've made you resent her even more?

Meet the rising star superhero—and your mother's protégé—Skylar Moore.

Meet the black sheep of the ECPD, Detective Santana Valdez.

Have a talk with the CEO of the Constellation Agency!

What have been updated in previous chapters include:

- Added a new clothing style, which is the “All black” clothing style to match the style that Luka is wearing (popular demand 😆)

- Added flavour texts for those choosing “Beatrice” or “Virgil”/“Vergil” codename.

- The skill check limits in Chapter 3 have been lowered. To succeed in the hotel entry, you’ll need at least 50 in the corresponding skill instead of 55. And to succeed in the CQC combat, you’ll now only need (Combat + Grav) or (Combat + Umbra) at least 105 instead of the previous 115.

- Make the Police Commissioner’s unsavoury connection to the Nemesis Project more apparent.

- Tweak how MC reacts to executing the Police Commissioner. Now, it’s based more on whether you chose your MC to be ready, hesitant, or don’t want to kill him in Chapter 2 when talking to Grandpa.

Oh, and also, I'm planning to make quick and fun polls on the ROs and Yvette in my CoG Forum post, so, if you guys have an account there, consider casting your vote 😁

Graphite's gets decked

Okay Roscoe where do we go? *ouff* what's a police pre-saint? *ouff* fellow peace keepers perfect! When graphite and Roscoe arrived at the ECPD the following accurs. helloo-it's him "The Silhouette" get him!-Roscoe book it! Why are they chasing me! *ouff* what on earth is a silhouette!?!? You know what never mind. After getting into the car and some how avoiding the entire police department graphite and Roscoe debate their options. Okay... I got nothing I was told to go here because of a threat some group of humans are doing and that's it *ouff* fine a place to stay and gather information? That's genius! *petting Roscoe* *ouff!* okay but what place should we-wait what that's? At this point graphite see a woman in distress and it appears she's being mugged by 3 strange looking men graphite does the following. ...nope that ain't right come Roscoe I ain't letting this happen *ouff!* currently on the muggers point of view. Look lady we just want the purse and your wallet just give it to us and we'll leave you alone-wait what's that sound-oh gosh what's that thing! Currently from graphites point of view. Okay Roscoe I thought of the perfect idea *ouff* okay I'm going to put you in my shoulders *ouff?* I'm going to put my hood over you *ouff??* and I'm going to walk over to them in hope of looking intimidating *ouff???* you ready... *ouff!* great love the enthusiasm. Now for the womans point of view. *currently seeing a giant trying their best to act intimidating to three muggers by having a dog piggy back on them with the hood up and yelling hi and is working to scare the muggers* what on earth is happening to my life. Now here's where it gets interesting. Hi there *ouff!* what do you your loosing bala-ance *graphite's falls to the ground with Roscoe just walking along as if nothing happened* ow *graphite gets up a bit dazed* okay that was awkward-oh I'm so crack *suddednly a bus comes out of nowhere and absolutely decks graphite to next Friday making then loose their communicater* now to the woman's point of view again. What on earth is happening today?!?! As this was going on police sirens are heard going off the muggers hearing this and also seeing graphite get deck they decided this isnt worth it and run off. This seems like the end but nope because as you see graphite's communicater flew out of their hand and convinently landed in the woman's purse where sir pendleton Roscoe is now following because their that good of a boy.

If I may ask, after his partner (in crime hehe) died, did Gambit return to his old live and ways of criminal activity like before or did it changed after bringing down Hugo and Artemis.

I imagine he didn't really have a choice but the go back to his old ways, since that's the only thing he's ever really known. His partnership with Carey didn't change the fact that he still lived a criminal lifestyle. In fact you could argue it only exacerbated it.

Besides, even if he wanted to quit, he still wouldn't be able to, given that killing both Artemis and Hugo put a giant red target on his head. After all, killing the mayor of Empire City and the de facto leader of the Underground is going to draw a lot of attention from a lot of different places.

In addition, Hugo's death creates a massive power vacuum within the Underground itself, resulting in the remaining crime families fighting amongst themselves to claim the city for themselves, all the while GUN is probably called in to try to not only handle that clusterfuck, but also find and apprehend the person who killed Artemis and Hugo, since the ECPD has their hands full (and is also corrupt to shit)

So yeah, Gambit is not only forced to return to what he knows, but he also has to watch his back and all times, and for the first time in 11 years, has to do all alone. Poor guy is barely given any time to mourn

Hell yes, rambling time

So basically the original idea started with @purplechaosguardian , that being the idea for an au where Alex feeds the Eastridge demon sometimes to try and keep himself off its hitlist. It ended up being labeled "the DOAI sitcom AU" due to the comedic premise of Alex having to both deal with all the shit happening at their job at the asylum, as well as having to deal with being Clyde's closest thing to impulse control.

The whole thing started out and continued to be very silly and full of shenanigans at the beginning, mostly related to the concept of Alex feeding Clyde sandwiches as well as Clyde getting Alex into its weird-ass shenanigans, as well as Alex having to just generally deal with the chore of investigating the asylum/keep them from knowing he's been friendly communicating with the veldigun. It's agreed upon that he'd eventually meet and win over the rest of the veldigun with sandwiches, as well as breaking out both Winfrey and patient 66 at one point (and maybe Kruger), and Clyde and Alex would eventually become a bit closer with Clyde essentially becoming Alex's fucked up demon cat that's obsessed with sandwiches and is like 3 inches taller than he is. Purplechaosguardian also said the ending of this au will inevitably end up with Alex beating the shit out of Lankmann with a crowbar and killing him to death. All very silly, and still continues to be to this day.

And then my bullshit idea and our slow transition into no longer being a sitcom had officially turned a head ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Basically the idea was that since the Lankmann Foundation canonically gives hush money to the ECPD, what if he found out about Alex's veldigun shenanigans and his approach on that was to use his power over the police to name Alex a wanted criminal? AND NOW we've spiraled into the arc of this au where Alex's house is eventually raided and he has to live on the run from the police with Clyde. Most likely the reasoning for Alex's wanting is "treason" according to Lankmann, and his wanted posters are everywhere (@corrupteddoodles made a very cool one). At some point while on the run the pair is separated, but Alex runs into Simon and the Flock and Clyde meets up eventually (shenanigans and arguments ensue between the two demons). Clyde, genuinely worried for Alex's state, begins to feel remorse and decides to deal with that by helping him without needing to say much admitting it cares about him; taking down and vandalizing the wanted posters, making sure he gets sleep, giving him a couple of sandwiches, it's all very nice and funny (you're part of the found family whether you like it or not, pumpkin gremlin).

There's also the whole "veldigun Alex" thing, which kind of ties into this au but might also just be becoming its own thing, idk it's just really cool. In the sitcom au, though, it is figured out by the characters eventually that Alex has been building up some kind of immunity to the whole "a veldigun's physical touch can turn you into body horror" thing. Whether or not this delves into him turning into a non-human is something we've just been kinda fucking with, I think, actually this whole au is just us fucking around with stuff and clapping every time a new idea comes around. It's really fun, though. Everyone keeps coming up with the most banger art and short writing oneshots and general ideas, it's all crazy but it's great.

TLDR: SEVEN NUCLEAR MISSILES INDEED (also it's worth mentioning - again - that this all transpired throughout the course of less than a week. Wild shit 👍)

can someone please explain the whole doai sitcom au to me
