I am so normal about the Liu trio.

You know that Meursault likes to smoke in his novel right. Imagine if him ryoshu and greg start smoking together at the credit of his canto i'll-

Autism Be Damned My Boy Can Work A Grill

Species: Meursault

Breed: Liu

Description: Slightly more spirited than most Meursaults, this limbus takes an active interest in exercise and the preparation of food. However, he seems to lack awareness of what constitutes limbus-safe food.

Care Information: Though he has an excellent sense of smell, Autism Be Damned My Boy Can Work A Grill should not be given access to spice cabinets or synthetic fragrances, as he may become ill.

Additional Notes: He is, however, very good at plating. This is negated by his tendency to set fire to any food he deems too raw.

[soleilenchaine]

He didn’t quite like the man initially. Not that Meursault was a troublemaker or anything. Far from it—he was an incredibly professional Fixer who made sure every sortie was carried out according to the mission objectives set by their superiors. Without fail, every sortie the two have been on would be completed with a terrifying level of efficiency, and Gregor has a lot of respect for the man in that regard. It was just that the man was an absolute stone wall.

“Does he not like me?”

My goodness this is amazing! Dante got swole for release day!

Yay for the release of Limbus Company! To celebrate, I give my high effort mouse drawn drawing to commemorate this special occasion .

Please do not take character interpretation too seriously

Very excited to play the game :D

scritch scratch for the Liu besties and a small hc~

anw, tastewise, I think Meursault and Gregor like lighter noodles while Ishy likes the ones with more flavor. Hong Lu is a different breed because he puts too much stuff in and just makes it spicy

also also, Ishy initially ate alone but the other 3 caught her once and then they started hanging out with each other! A group of besties!

[melonisopod]

Liu Ishmael started working alone ever since she found out Gregor Hong Lu and Meursault call themselves The Blowjob Brothers

hi limbus company fandom

so i had a thought. and that thought was "what if the sinners and all their identities had voicelines for when it was your/the manager's birthday" and what was supposed to be a funny "what if" scenario rapidly expanded into me actually thinking about it. so. because it ended up so long, i'm putting all of this under the cut so that no one has to scroll for a mile to read it all in the tag. you're welcome btw /lh

Yi Sang Base LCB: "Another year prolonging your stay in this world… may the rest of it be to your ideal pleasantness, Dante."

Seven Section 6: "The director informed me it was your birthday today, and instructed me to hand you this parcel as a gift. … I cannot tell you why she has it memorized. I try not to bother the director with such queries."

Blade Lineage Salsu: "How old are you now, Dante? … You do not know. I see. Yet another mysterious facet of you to be intrigued by…"

Faust Base LCB: "This is for you, Dante. I hope you enjoy it. … Hm? What is it for? Yes, Faust expected you to ask such a thing. It is your birthday, Manager."

W Corp Cleanup Agent: "Due to the nature of my occupation, personal occasions and celebrations are not common around the work environment. However, I am not bothered with taking a small portion of time to wish you a happy birthday."

L. Corp Remnant: "Birthdays were rarely given much worth in my old place of work- if we were lucky, a few of us would simultaneously take our breaks in order to have a small celebration. Perhaps it may not be so different here… but I hope you have a proper celebration nonetheless."

The One Who Grips: "How fortunate you are, to have lived another full year in this world with your humanity intact! Such a wondrous thing indeed… though, must you still wear that mask, even on such a glorious occasion that's just for you… ?"

Hong Lu Base LCB: "It's your birthday today? How exciting~! Tell me, Dante- are you going to choose the acres of land, the pony, or the-- Hm? My siblings and I were able to choose between several gifts on our birthdays, was that not possible where you're from?"

Kurokumo Wakashu: "It's a special day today, is it not, Lord Dante?~ Come with me… ah, haha, no need to be so scared. I'm simply going to treat you to the finest dining I know of. Come on then~"

Limbus talk below.

Are any of these IDs worth uptying? It's difficult deciding what and what not to uptie, especially when thread is so sparse, and there's so many combinations for teams.

Solemn Lament Yi Sang - Likely should, especially since we use him. Just put off due to the high cost, since it is a 000 rarity.

W. Corp Yi Sang - His supports seem good enough, we just don't run charge teams often

My Seven Association - High cost -_- Also, it's a small thing, but I do prefer my nonuptied art for this ID far better... Sighs, but she also uses it frequently. So she supposes if it's worth it.

My Multicrack - Skill 3 and passives all seem good, high cost. Don't use charge much.

Kurokumo Clan Wakashu Ryoshu - Skill 3 and passives seem good, high cost.

Liu Meursault

Dead Rabbits Meursault - Seems fine enough, especially since we often use rupture.

Liu Hong Lu

W Corp Hong Lu

Fanghunt Hong Lu - Seems good to uptie? May do it once we personally reach Canto 7 on our account.

Seven Heathcliff - Skill 3 seems decent enough

R Ishmael - Have heard it's good but honestly it seems shit. Someone justify it to Faust.

Edgar Butler Ishmael - Ishmael wants to. And we use sinking often enough.

W Outis - High cost, don't use charge often

Blade Lineage Salsu Outis

Ring Outis

Zwei Gregor - Have been meaning to, since we use him constantly. Just a high cost...

Liu Gregor

Rosespanner Gregor

[firestorm09890]

I’m sure someone else has arrived at this conclusion first because Limbus Company stuff had been floating around for a while and there was plenty of time to think of it before the game even came out but it’s kinda blowing my mind so here

Each of the Associations in The City are named after a number, each in a different language. #1, Hana, is in Korean; #2, Zwei, is in German; etc.

It just occurred to me that they correspond directly to the order of the Limbus Company sinners.

1, Hana: Korean (Yi Sang) 2, Zwei: German (Faust) 3, Tres: Spanish (Don Quixote) 4, Shi: Japanese (Ryōshū) 5, Cinq: French (Meursault) 6, Liu: Chinese (Hong Lu) 7, Seven: English (Heathcliff) 11, Öufi: Swiss German (Sinclair)

This is absolutely not a coincidence and I wouldn’t be surprised if the remaining associations were named the same way but what does it mean??? What does it-

[tree-of-blue-squirrel]

Limbus company Ennagram

reading up on enneagram I find it pretty compelling to slot the sinners into to get their motivations and stuff so let´s go and assign different types of brokenness to them

Three clusters

There are 12 playable sinners, which would neatly split into three subgroups in accordance with enneagram types - I am taking the LocalScriptMan interpretation of Enneagram here, supplementing with information from other sources as needed (at th time of writing this, he has three more types to make videos on).

Head/fear cluster (5,6,7) - issues of existential dread, fear Heart/shame cluster (2,3,4) - issues of love and self worth Body/anger cluster (8,9,1) - issues of handling anger and boundaries

Going off of the Sinners´ vibes, they can be neatly places into three categories:

head cluster - Faust, Ishmael, Don Quixote, Outis

Faust slots into a fear cluster very seamlesly. She is pretty much a stereotypical 5, obsesse with hoarding all th knowledge so she is prepared for anything. The moment she loses it though ? Fear.

Ishmael similalry is very much fear based, to the point it being her kneejerk reaction to goign to the Lake. She does push through and become very angry, but that is basically her response to being put into situation she can´t run away from. Pretty solid 6 if you ask me.

Don is as close to a 7 as one can get. True, she does come close to being an 8 and perhaps her alt form is an 8 but base Don ? She runs away from her true self and her entire arc is most likely about confronting the uncomfortable truth of who and what she is.

Outis, as far as the cluster goes, is the least obvious. I originally had her slotted into a body cluster, but is later became clearer that she is more of a fear type that shoves is all under the rug and pretends to be tough (as evident her reactions in Railway 4 and TkT, which are so far some of the most breakown moments for her that lets her persona slip away, although briefly). Slotting her as a type 5 was not my first choice, however she does share the same sort of fear of being incompetent and in dire situations substitutes it be planning for every possible route, strategising her way out (didn´t work out much in canto 5, because she seems to have more theory than practise with sailing the Lake, being outmatched by Ishmael´s experience very early on in that journey)

heart cluster - Rodion, Hong Lu, Gregor, Meursault

Rodya is a type 4 and I WILL fight anyone on this who is going to disagree. She quite literally takes her shame of being inadequate and builds a shielding persona of unflappability ala Tyrion Lannister. She is obsessed with being original and unique, while disregarding her own actual identity because of it. When stressed, she dips into 2´s complex of being Unlovable (the Unloving is literally the name of her canto for crying out loud).

Compare that to Hong Lu. Poster child of Facade if there ever was one, deluding everyone including himself... but really just himself because his mask is slowly slipping as he talks about how his family treats him. He is frequently speaking of value and worth, in his Liu id even likening himself to a fancy tea. Very thematic, very type 3.

The most expressive of the shame squad as number 2, Gregor literally cannot hide his dislike for his bug arm as much as he tries to. Very obviously hates himself and thinks himself unlikeable because... well, bug arm. That lashes out randomly. He wants to break free from its influence, which is likely why he so often tries to connect to others by cracking jokes and being relatable AF in general.

Speaking of making others like you - there is Gregor, and then there is Meursault who just straight up gave up trying. If you don´t like him as he is, well, that´s that and this is this. Meursault just doesn´t give a flying fuck anymore, or at least tries to present as such. In th single moment of feeling something else than ennui, Meursault´s EGO briefly changes affinity from pride to gloom. Though I am not 100% on this, souns very much like type 2, a Gregor who just gave up trying to be friendly.

body cluster - Heathcliff, Sinclair, Yi Sang, Ryoshu

Heathcliff and angry - the two inseparable things. His ego briefly took on the wrath affinity, the angriest of the affinities. But anger isn´t the only thing he has. As type 1, he deems himself the main problem, to the point of one of his selves going on a killing spree across the multiverse, instead of talking to the woman he loves and face rejection. All because he resents her family and the place they grew up in. Try as he might, all Heathcliffs long for the one perfect timeline where Heathcliff and Cathy are happy together. But they are their own biggest enemy because emotional stability is one thing that pretty much every Heathcliff struggles with.

Sinclair doesn´t look like an anger type at first glance. He is cowardly, fearful wet cat that barely manages to face off against Kromer. That being said, he does have a bit of a psychological break during his canto, resulting in Don literally punching sense back into him. Sinclair´s actions in his canto are likewise motivated by anger, which is why in my eyes he is an 8. Very much vengeance themed canto and hey, Kromer is Lust themed creature, which just so happens to be 8´s biggest vice. Sinclair´s arc also deals wth loss of innocence, which is conveniently the corresponding virtue of type 8. It just fits.

Speaking of fitting, Yi Sang is type 9. Which is sloth on sloth on sloth. Inaction and refusal of self-assertion, striving to be whole again after being broken into pieces... I wonder where I seen that... (FLY BROKEN WINGS, I KNOW YOU ARE STILL WITH MEEEEEE...)

Ryoshu was a tricky one. Mostly because she fits into multiple spots pretty well. Also, we are yet to really see her have an emotional break. That being said, so far, when she expresses any emotion that isn´t her own flavor of masochistic craze, it is anger. And not just surface anger, but anger that runs in parallel with her familial attachments (see MotWe with the lines spoken by Cassetti). However, the boundaries do strike me as something that Ryoshu will have to confront in her canto, because it was her going beyond her own boundaries and following art orders in her source material as the artist who.... let things burn for the sake of art. I don´t actually know whether to slot her as an 8 or 1. Either would work in terms of placement, but personally, an 8 has a bit more kick to it and would mesh nicely with Ryoshu and Sinclair being so much on the same wave. (which also makes her a Wolverine type if LocalScriptMan is anything to go by which I personally think is fun af)
