I HAVE A QUESTION!!!

I saw that you like both UT and WC. (Warrior cats) And I got curious.

If The sans Aus were in WC how do you think they'd look?

I'm honestly so curious rn

OH!!!!! HAVE YOU CHECKED THE CYBER CAFÉ DUMPSTER by any chance? there HAS to be some leftover cake there!!!! i heard there was an event recently!!

[ganondoodle]

i find it funny that echoes of wisdoms big bad is called 'Null' in english (which is .. german for zero) and hes called 'Nihil' in german (which is, im pretty sure, 'nothing' or also 'zero' in latin) and leads me to assume every language is just calling them some form of zero/nothing just in another language than the rest of the games translation xD

also calling the triforce 'prime energy' in english is on the same level of bad as calling the enigma stones in totk 'secret' stones to me ... perhaps even worse .....

One thing I really wish about crow rook, would them just refusing to admit that their training was basically torture.

In casual conversation dropping about how viago broke their hand once during training, and how much of a bitch it was to heal, but immediately defending it because they've never forgotten to keep their hands protected in a fight.

Or maybe they do know it was torture. Maybe they know it was abuse and not something that should have been done to a child, but if they think about that they would have to reconstruct the idea of Viago in their mind. Viago the man who saved them, the man who trained them, the man who also tortured them. I think an internal struggle of 'but that torture kept me alive. I'm only breathing because of my lessons paid in my own blood' would have done so much for the crows

And maybe they see it reflected in Lucanis's stories. And hearing about Caterina and Lucanis, they can't reason it away with sentimentally. Maybe they try to. Lucanis survived a year of torture. Was that because of Caterina? Or because of Lucanis's own spirit?

Idk, I think crow rook could have been an interesting story about the crows. Because in other back stories, it makes sense that the crows would try to boast about freedom and how they defend their city. Make themselves look good to their new allies. But crow rook would have known about the blood underneath, and the bruises and the welts and the cuts. And maybe they can't forgive Viago - maybe they can. Maybe they have to, because if they don't then they lose their only family. Maybe they know Viago only wanted them to survive. Maybe they don't know if that makes it better or worse.

Sorry forever mourning that the crows aren't actually morally gray it could have been such a neat story about their internal abuse and how the system itself works. The only previous crow companion we had talks about how bad his torture was; a blood bath, a survival of the fittest. When asked about their training, crow rook can reply 'it was torture'. I wish there was some idk depth to it? It's implied that house de Riva does training differently from house arianai, which makes sense as clearly that did NOT work out for house arianai. However rook was personally trained by Viago (from what I understand. Talking to Heir at the casino reveals that rook never trained with her, and also received the best training they could. Probably training from the talon himself). That couldn't have been easy training.

Yet even through all that, it's clear Viago does care about them! Any other crow would be dead if they went rogue on a job like rook did, yet Viago only sends them away.

I don't remember where I was going with this but. I think Rook de Riva should be allowed some complicated emotions about their training and viago. As a treat

Some more Lucanis rambling:

Thinking about how Lucanis made a deal with Spite. How he is the only 'success' of Zara's.

We only ever hear about this deal from Spite, when he is in full control in the pantry. I think this is another point of resentment for Lucanis towards Spite.

Because in my headcanon of events during their imprisonment, this deal became a way to cope. They are both unwilling, but they aren't like water and oil. I think the reason these two were able to endure is because Lucanis would likely naturally draw a spirit of determination from his personality, and that fact meant their natures were not so disparate as others undergoing these experiments.

A deal meant they were able to align even more, which made it easier to handle whatever torture was thrown at them.

Escaping and living was the only hope Lucanis had. Even if it was near-impossible.

And when he is able to do that thanks to Rook and co. the deal with Spite becomes something shameful.

Now he has to deal with existing as an abomination and what it might mean, but also that he opened himself up to Spite, willingly.

Of course, he doesn't want anyone to know that and admitting that would be admitting that he's actually not so different from Spite, or at least has some of those qualities.

So, he tries to bury Spite as deep as he can. Not give up control. And Spite is trapped in the mental prison of the Ossuary, and their deal isn't fulfilled. Overtime this causes more problems leading to Spite sleepwalking more and eventually Spite finally talk to Rook and Inner Demons. (See: my other post about Spite actually wanting to help Lucanis)

If you save Treviso he is willing to open himself up again, to Rook and to Spite and have more harmony. If you don't save Treviso he instead tries to distance himself further and tries to remove Spite whatever that might mean.

I also don't know if the dialogue is unique to romanced Lucanis or not but I think it's telling that at the very moments before the final mission, Lucanis has a conversation with Rook where Rook points out he sounds like Spite and Lucanis accepts that with no qualms.

Anyways I'm sleep deprived and I think they're neat.
