Kurohime, one of the new dragons on JP, isn't super appealing to me so far (but neither is she unappealing, I'm completely neutral), but I am liking the look of her NP, it's pretty unique, especially with how 'beam attack' and 'world-fucker' focused FGO NPs have become, I'd love to think about how this one would work in a Holy Grail War.

Maybe this is just me Case Files brain-ing it, but with the connections of hair, blood, and flame, almost has like a... classic Magecraft feel to it? By which I mean a connection to older ideas in Magecraft, not like Age of Gods shit, but like stuff Waver has talked about with sympathetic Magecraft, I think some entry has also mentioned the importance and value of hair to female Mages, there's the fact the sword seems to manifest/teleport as opposed to just a slash so you could do some locked room mystery shit with it.

Louhi's is another recent cool-looking one, though I haven't read much on that event: it features what I assume are her witch ritual implements in that lantern, sickle, and pick, that rotating stone thing that is apparently a millstone, and changes in the celestial sphere that result in an animalistic transformation. Though I figure that sorta star and weather manipulation is pretty high level Magecraft, it being used in a Holy Grail War would probably have to have it be pretty small and localized, and probably have a hefty mana drain on the Master, though Louhi's Territory Creation (I love to see standard Class passives on Classes they're not normally on) could help offset that some? (Partially related: I love Evil Servants, and Neutral Evil in particular is one that doesn't have a lot of Servants.)

It's just fun for me to think about NP uses in normal Holy Grail Wars, especially some of the more 'non-standard' ones.

The NPs of these two are more normal ones but have some interesting details to play with, I was brainstorming with my sister about Servants we'd summon and fight each other with, her with Arjuna and me with Cleopatra: Assassin's Presence Concealment outranks Arjuna's Clairvoyance, so he can't instantly snipe her while she closes the distance with superior speed, Arjuna has renowned physical fighting skills but only has his bow as an Archer, while Cleopatra compensates for less in the way of 'real' weapon experience with Imperial Privilege, and while there's no detail on what Assassin's Protection of the Goddess does, the fact that it grants Invincibility leads me to think it can at least do some sort of deflection or blocking.

But Pashupata, and Arjuna being a strong summon overall, does seal the deal in his favor, but not completely: It's a big explosion, so collateral damage would have to be considered by both Master and Servant, so it's deployment would be limited in that way. Going off FGO gameplay, I'd use Cleo's Protection skill to block it with Invincibility, but Pashupata has a chance to insta-kill Divine targets, and Cleo has D-rank Divinity. So I had the really cool thought that, since her Divinity is so low and she's using the Blessing skill to block it, it basically blasts the Divinity and that skill off of her, insta 'killing' them (leaving them unable to be recovered or used this manifestation) and heavily wounding her in the process, after which me/her Master would order her to retreat.

Through the wounding and the now lack of Divinity, though, comes an interesting avenue for the use of Uraeus Astrape; she already can't control it due to a lack of the Riding skill, it's usage in FGO already damages Cleopatra and that was with taking into account a damage reduction from Divinity, and the snake is not a 'real' Divine Beast or Phantasmal, it's just an embodiment and representation of the death of both Cleopatra and Egypt... But backed into a corner, and already wounded and maybe near death, would provide some of the necessary requirements, in my opinion, to unleash Uraeus Astrape, and use this giant uncontrollable flame snake as a distraction (one that might get other parties in the HGW involved if Arjuna can't handle it himself) with which to retreat.

Me: hm, I want something to put on the TV as background noise... Huh. Looks like YouTube is recommending something called The Last Unicorn. That's perfect, it's probably some old shitty animation that has aged poorly! I can watch it ironically!

Me, 2 hours later as the credits roll: *crying, cheering, buying the book, composing the songs*

Me, 2 weeks later: So I have compiled all of the quotes from the book that I think could make good tattoos, and also, HOW HAVE I NEVER LEARNED ABOUT HOW THE LAST UNICORN FUCKING SLAPS??? This gay-ass little fairytale fed my soul! Watered my crops! Transed my gender! Can't believe I heard of this story from youtube recommendations, of all places!!

The Lamb is malicious in a funny way and the Goat is funny in a malicious way. No, I will not elaborate.

Anyway, everyone give thanks to the Lamb for interrupting what was sure to be a very boring and patronizing PSA from their grouchy cat hubby. Truly, they are doing God's work. Granted, the Lamb canonically is God now, so, uh. Mostly they're just doing their own work.

Speaking of their grouchy cat hubby, yes this is absolutely still Narilamb, Narinder is 100% into his goofy-ass spouse always no matter what and we all know it, he just wasn't expecting his brand new adopted kid to share the same single goofy-ass brain cell as the Lamb. :)

pathetic loser

he’s an artist 

comes from a rich family

he barely leaves his house, he stays inside a LOOOOOT

insane attachment issues

clingy and dependant yandere

he guilt trips a lot (isn’t really aware of it lmao) can be really manipulative without trying unfortunately

texts you constantly but if you don’t answer back in like 5 minutes he starts freaking out 

sometimes he’s normal enough but if you take too long he WILL lose it

doesn't like it when you talk to other people, why can't you just talk to him? is he not good enough for you? what's so interesting about other people anyway?

he hates stairs (he's fallen down and up the stairs WAYYY too many times)

shy (lmao ok) and introverted (has a really hard time talking to people)

has a mascot! (his name is PopUp :] he made him for a school project and just ended up liking him a lot lol)

sopping wet cat

don’t be mean to him, he doesn’t like it, even as a joke

doesn’t get much social interaction cause he stays inside a lot

WAYYYY more comfortable texting, he’s like a totally different person when you’re texting him

spams a lot. like a lot

used to be a lot more outgoing and social

wishes you could be by his side 24/7

he’s sad a lot of the time

feels unloved, please shower him in love

really pessimistic when it comes to himself

he’s really passionate about art

you and art are the two things that make him extremely happy

if you thought nox was tired, meet cassian! he has an even worse sleeping schedule than nox

he’ll do ANYTHING to keep you by his side

so he can and will kidnap you! lol!

is also a stalker… great..!

has probably installed a camera somewhere in your room (um??)

you’re probably one of the only people that can convince him to leave his room

really loves shoujo manga, has fantasized about being the perfect male lead for you (he really wants a romance like that, only with you) 

he's a huge romantic, he wants the two of you to have a happy life together

so please don’t leave him. please

takes a lot of walks at night, don’t worry he doesn’t spend ALL of his time inside (he wishes he could tho.)

he wants to have his happy ending with you <3

John and Caro are from my comic Mil-Liminal and Seemingly Dark

when people infantilise emu it's literally a self report because if you had read like. any of her events + wms + her fes you'd know she's more of a businesswoman than a performer. you don't actually engage with the game's story do you

[budugaapologist]

still dont see how so many people say that dawntrail is poorly written in comparison to other expansions like. what, did you realize you had to learn about a new culture and immediately not care anymore lmao? you've done it before, was this one not white enough for you?

genuinely i think more people should do side quests during msq so idk you can form a heart about the characters you're interacting with if you struggle with that and understand the land better so when impactful shit happens your illiterate ass can actually read and have empathy. theres no excuse for this.

if you can't handle storybuilding and character introductions from the expansion that feels like stormblood and shadowbringers had passionate gay sex that got one of them pregnant and birthed a beautiful daughter they both love and care about then idk what to tell you, maybe youre just lame and can't read. best of luck with that.
