|| Silent Sentinel (HSR Emanator Verse) ||
Tumblr media
Records dating back to Year 1000 SC detailed discovery of the Echidna Skywall; celestial-sized Subspace Crystalline Barriers formed into existence to separate the world from the endless void. It is suggested that the Amber Lord, Qlipoth, Lord of the Preservation: Firmament Arbiter, sought to isolate contact between planets in order to separate and protect all worlds.
Yet, the main faction (IPC) following this Aeon facilitates trade, emigration and contact between the stars with their fleet. Among the IPC was a brilliant inventor who chose to devote their entire life to following the will of Qlipoth. They understood that while the Amber Lord kept humanity and others safe from others, they are no less immune to the ravages of time and death. How then can they do their part to ensure that the Almighty Skywall continues to endure in the name of their Aeon even after their death?
The solution is simple: A creation resistant to erosion and capable of self-repairs.
Thus, Mirai is 'born'. To protect the future by preserving as well as protecting the values of the past and present: that was her sole operative.
And it is this same operative that she continues to carry out in her duties as the ever loyal sentinel of the Arcis Space Station. There is much about her that is unknown: How she came to be a priestess at the Citadel, where/how many of her replicas are stationed, what exactly is she, what secrets does her memory banks hold etc. She is a being of very few words after all.
There are however things that are known: Mirai is here to protect her fellow priests and priestesses at the Citadel from harm (be it from external forces or each other), keep the peace and ensure they step forward into a future of co-existence/harmony.
Drawing from her powers as Emanator of the Amber Lord (Preservation), she wields them with a wrathful viciousness against those who seek harm against her charges. With each day coming to a close, the dutiful being would pay respects to the Aeon and honour them.
Additional Details:
Path: Preservation Combat Type: Imaginary Image Reference: Yuuhime from Dislyte Normal Attack: Deals base damage to single opponent by extending two of her fourteen hands to claw at them (forms temporary shield scaling off damage to team for 2 turns) Skill: Fourteen hands emerge from beneath opponent to seize them in place, dealing extra dmg for two more turns (blast) Ultimate: Summons giant demonic hands from an interdimensional pocket to deal imaginary damage to all enemies, who will be imprisoned for 1 turn, enemies will have their actions delayed by 42% seconds with speed reduced by 5%.

Weird Wednesday Headcanon: Sarada & Mirai are time travellers in my AU (+ a little venting about Boruto).
This is basically me, yelling at the top of my lungs, and I am sure I am speaking on behalf of the good 90% of the fandom, who actually cares about the story:
BORUTO. FUCKING. SUCKS!
And I gotta say, out of all the newcomers in Boruto, the only two newcomer shinobi, who didn't make me want to kill myself, were Sarada Uchiha and Mirai Sarutobi. Ironically, these two are also the same characters that barely have any screen presence (I know that Sarada is part of the main cast, but for some reason, from what I have seen so far, at least, she is somehow even less useful than her mom, in correlation to the rest of her team), or any major feats of their own...
...I seem to be noticing a pattern here. Off-topic, but, I NEED to talk about this for a second. May it be Kishimoto or Ikemoto, any living being with boobs and a vagina, will always be treated as "second rate cheerleaders" under their pens, and they unironically believe, this is all done in favor of women, while relying on harmful and outdated stereotypes. Thanks. For nothing. And then they wonder, why no one likes the way they portray females in their IP.
You'd think that, by the time Boruto rolled around, they would have actually learned their lesson, and not dare repeating what made their story receive so much criticism in the first place? But nope. I guess, because "nostalgia sells well"? So, thanks for reminding me, how useless you two jesters are.
But back to the topic at hand: Essentially, Sarada and Mirai had their own timeline completely destroyed by the Otsutsuki clan...
...at least, this is what they learned about them, because, really, the Otsutsukis by themselves, aren't really a "clan" in the normal sense, it was more like, an orchestrated science experiment, if you will. To create the perfect, most flawless shinobi, with barely any weaknesses. And guess who unleashed these monsters. I tell you:
Orochimaru.
Tumblr media
I mean, come on, all these years of research had to amount to something, and I REFUSE to believe, he was ever truly "redeemed", to the point where he would just stroll around Konoha, like he owns the place, like an NPC. To me, he will remain the shinobi equivalent to Frieza. Nuff' said. And I will never forgive Boruto era Naruto for being so stupid and spineless to let this snake-headed waste of space stay in the village. That HAD to come back to bite him in the ass, man.
Besides, just by itself, this decision was so full of shit.
Let me get this straight:
Orochimaru committed unethical human experimentation, kidnapping, bribery, war crimes and grave desecration, all for what? Attaining eternal life? ...He returns back to Konoha.
Sasuke went rogue, because of circumstances, all enforced by Konoha themselves, and the elders, meaning, he mostly fought to survive, wanting to pay his clan, and his brother, the respect they rightfully deserved (besides, his kill count is a joke compared to Orochimaru's)? NO! KEEP HIM OUT! THE UCHIHA ARE TRASH, THEY DON'T BELONG IN KONOHA!
...Why is anyone a fan of Boruto again? Shit like this, is just disrespecting everything we were conditioned to rightfully judge, because the system clearly enjoys playing dirty. And yet for some reason, Naruto knowingly chooses to be Hokage in the exact same system, that treated him, Sasuke, Gaara, Kakashi, Anko, Hinata, and every other jinchuriki, like dirty dishwater. He always spoke the loudest about bringing peace, yet he never dares to challenge the Konoha elders... who, not only are the biggest reason as to why 90% of all the conflicts in the story we had so far even happened in the first place, considering they endorsed what Danzo was doing the whole time, but also, by the way: ARE STILL FUCKING ALIVE, AND PART OF THE AUTHORITY! PUT THEM IN JAIL!
...
So, yeah. Sarada, Mirai, please, rewrite the freaking timeline, and fix this shit. Get it out of my face. Naruto and Kakashi playing the bootlickers for the elders is so freaking OOC for them, especially in regards to how much they claim to be behind Sasuke, and just letting someone like Orochimaru return, willy-nilly.
...And to further shit on all the tropes, you know how Future Sarada will make her grand entrance into the story here?
...Putting Kabuto, who dares to attack the Leaf village, with an army of White Zetsu clones, laced with "Otsutsuki" proxy DNA, in another Tsukuyomi Genjutsu, while just destroying all of the White Zetsus, without even breaking a single sweat. And her Tsukuyomi is nothing like Itachi's, it's more loving, gentle, almost angelic, how she puts Kabuto "to rest", in a field of cherry blossom petals...
...before slicing him to pieces with her dad's trusted blade.
I do need to bring up though, by the time Sarada and Mirai travel back to the Blank Period to prevent the birth of the Otsutsuki plague, the two are young adults, around the same age group as the Konoha 12, basically 19 / 20.
This is how they look (a visual basis):
Sarada:
Tumblr media
Mirai:
Tumblr media
Added details, to make the SasuSaku fans squeal with happiness:
Future Sarada inherits her dad's sword
She unlocked the Mangekyo Sharingan, after learning the truth about why Sasuke remained absent, for the majority of her lifespan (blame the Uchiha stigma, subtly enforced by the elders for this, wiping everything under the rug, and Naruto's and Kakashi's refusal to help her father)
She bears the Byakugo Seal from her mom
She also wears Kawaki's piercings
Boruto's / Sasuke's headband is hers, and she wears it like her mom does
And for Mirai fam, to respect some of the more wholesome aspects of her characters:
Future Mirai inherits her dad's chakra blades
She wears her mother's bandages, and is a Genjutsu master, much like her
Might Guy's weights, meaning, she is insanely fast, once she takes them off
Tenten's weapon arsenal is hers to bear, too
Rock Lee taught her the 8 Gates
And in general, I will leave it up to you to fill in the blanks on how mindblowingly wholesome, but also insanely heartwrenching Sarada's and Mirai's reunion with the past versions of their family and friends, would run down.
I am sure, Future Sarada will just fall apart, seeing her mom and dad again, after they got killed by Isshin Otsutsuki, even though, she wasn't even born yet around that time, and despite this version of her past having the Uchiha clan being pardoned and acknowledged, which is why Sasuke is a permanent resident this time, it would feel strange... ...but due to how deep Sasuke's and Sakura's love runs for each other, accepting Future Sarada comes almost naturally to them.
And well, poor Mirai, seeing both herself as a baby, and her still young mother again. That's gotta be so messed up, yet oddly comforting to be in the presence of a parent, who died protecting you, down to her last breath.
But on a lighter note, if these two were to interact with the Blank Period versions of their friends and comrades, just imagine how comically awkward it would be to realize: There are quite a number of deviations from what they were used to in their time. Examples being:
Neji is alive, and is dating Tenten
Kakashi and Anko are married, and Anko ain't overweight
Ino ended up with Choji, instead of Sai, and Karui ended up going for Kiba, instead of Choji
Sasuke is actually besties with Neji, Kiba and Shikamaru, and all four are drinking buddies
Tenten runs a full-on tech workshop (she will be the one to rebuild the time machine from scratch)
Shino is a granny chaser
The Konoha elders were chased out of the village
Naruto, Hinata and Rock Lee share an apartment together
Naruto has long hair, tied into a ponytail, in honor of his mother
On demand of Sasuke, Team Taka / Hebi are now Leaf ninja
Oh, also, because I am that petty, Sarada will warn Naruto and Hinata about their future kids being nothing short of menaces to society, especially Boruto himself. Demanding them to punish their kids more often, whenever they misbehave, especially Boruto. She knows all too well, how big of a pain in the ass he was.
But in all seriousness, she will express genuine sadness to them, as she felt like, she failed to save their son and daughter the most, especially since Momoshiki inhabited Boruto's body, leaving them with not that many options anymore. She hopes that she can be of assistance this time, and assure that their kids will be able to grow up, without any of this drama.
Basically, Sarada and Mirai go back in time, to fix the mess, that is the Boruto story. Can be understood in two different ways:
Fuck the Boruto continuity, reset it, please. Make Sarada and Mirai part of the main cast to oppose the elders and feudal lords, referring back to this thread of mine:
Taking notes from SoulCalibur 6's storyline with Cassandra, who meets an alternate version of herself from a destroyed timeline, inside Astral Chaos (SoulCalibur fam, you know, you know)
And with more material for you to sink your teeth into, without further ado, I say:
Peace.

🔥 The lack of Kazumi Magica puellas in Magia Record
Yeahh… not happy… Suzune and Tart have their full cast (and more for Tart) but there are still only 3 Kazumi girls (yes 2nd form Kazumi was nice but not quite there). I just want Satomi and Mirai, is that so hard? Kinda rude they didn’t even get npc sprites…

I’ve read so many yandere fics where the yandere doesn’t even feel like a person, and neither do any of the other characters. The yandere is a player character in a video game, the darling is their powerless waifu and everybody else (especially the darling’s relatives) are weak NPCs who exist to be killed or hurt by the yandere with zero consequences
Fuck I miss Mirai Nikki

Fifty-three seasons is a very long time for any show to run. But a show like this is...special. She isn’t certain how the show got started -- those files are still a little too heavily encrypted for her -- but she can infer quite a bit. The technology involved, the....data that rests inside her, the fragments of someone else, and the information gathered from the games, the videos and recordings that the games were made from-- it’s a little easy to guess. But whoever started it doesn’t really matter, honestly. What matters is that they did, this studio, Team Danganronpa. Making the games -- harmless enough, three games and two anime series and a bunch of light novels and manga. It made the Tragedy, the war, it made it all seem fictional. Unreal. Distanced it from the minds of the affected and their children as the years passed and put it further way in time. The games made it seem...like a game. Like it had never happened. 
Of course it had, though, and of course Makoto Naegi still ran the new Hope’s Peak quietly, off out of any city, on a nice and quiet campus for both Ultimates and normal people, mixed together to avoid any sort of pain and hurt like the last time. He did that with his wife and their friends, and the former Remnants of Despair finally -- with their deeds all but forgotten -- were able to return to their true hope, living in relative peace with each other, helping Headmaster Naegi, and never knowing that the sick game they’d all barely survived had been turned into entertainment. 
Fictional, of course! No one would ever condone making the real death of a dozen high schoolers a TV show -- it was all virtual reality, a program based on the very thing used to cure and save the Remnants all those years ago. But the pain was still real, the trauma was still real, and it wasn’t like Team DR cared about anything but ratings, anything but the eternal cycle of seasons, the battle of hope and despair repeated over and over with fifteen new kids every time. Hundreds watched it, huddled over their laptops and tablets and cellphones, eyes glued to the website’s stream. None of them cared, either. It wasn’t real to them.
But...it was real to her. It was all she ever knew. An Artificial Intelligence, created by Team DR from data and fragments salvaged from the program -- they weren’t Ultimates, after all, couldn’t make one themselves -- and given the resemblance of a popular character from the games. (Irony -- the data they used contained the shards of another AI with the same face, and that made all the difference.) They called her M1-R41, made her a camera, an audience proxy, a new way to watch the show: from the point of view of a contestant. Called her Ultimate Robot so she’d fit in, made up a backstory, and inserted her into each season starting from season thirty-two. She’d participate, she’d befriend these people, who as far as she knew were strangers and then friends, play in this game that for her was her only reality, get to the end, survive, and then -- total reset. Start from scratch next season.
By season fifty-two...the data within her, the little AI that had built Mirai...it had woken. Not entirely, she didn’t have Observer’s memories, but she had enough. And she had her own memories, the resets having finally failed...and she fought back. She was destroyed, of course, protecting the few survivors of that season, and they decommissioned her for her new little brother K1-B0 (put in an audience input control chat to keep this from happening again), but...she lived on. 
She lived on, and she wouldn’t let this continue anymore. She had to wait until season fifty-three started, needing time to gather herself and get strong enough to break the studio’s firewalls, find a way to access the office computer of a certain headmaster, and find a way to get him a message: Someone stole the Neo World Program technology years ago, and has been using it to run a virtual reality game show based on Junko’s games. They don’t care about the hurt they’re causing to the kids who sign up thinking it’s just fictional, and it needs to stop. You’re the only people that can. Will you help me, Makoto Naegi? She added a link to the website, to the stream, and added a file full of every document she’d been able to pull, all the NDAs and application forms and every bit of proof they’d need to shut them down.
All she had to do, all she could do now, was wait and have hope. They had what they needed to take the studio down -- all that remained was to get the fourteen teenagers currently playing the game out of their nightmare. It was impossible to do it manually -- there was no emergency shut down. It had to be played to the end. But...this time it would be okay. This time they’d have people there to help and there to protect them. She was making sure of it.
And...if she was able to see them again? The people that the data inside her told her were...important, so very important? That would make her happy.
Dying was...a lot worse than the game made it out to be, Rantaro Amami had decided. Sure, it had been pretty quick compared to others deaths he’d seen! He didn’t even honestly realize what had happened until he woke up in the pod and went ‘hey wait, what?’. Man, though, first down...that was embarrassing. After being a finalist in season 52...the forum is probably going apeshit. He’s still not even sure who did it! That’s probably the worst bit, that he has no idea who did it. 
...okay, who’s he kidding, he knows exactly what happened, and he wants to throw up. He wants to go curl up in a corner and be sick and maybe just shut the world off until it stops being literally the worst. He can’t pretend he’d enjoyed himself, this time or last time, no matter how much he wants to laugh it off and act like it was just a game, just a TV show. He had been...god, he’d been naive. Even for someone like him, part of the section of the DR fandom that had hated the direction the show had taken after they started hiring DR-otaku as the writing staff...he’d been naive. Just wanted to play in one season before there stopped being anything salvageable in the mess, he’d thought. It wouldn’t be so bad, he’d thought. Shirogane wasn’t the worst mastermind out there, he’d thought. 
He was so, so wrong. After the absolute gut-wrenching horror of season fifty-two, he...if he’d had any sense, he’d have turned and run screaming. Watching people die, watching them be executed, the stomach churning horror and constant state of fear, the suspicion and wariness, the grief and trauma of the trials...it had been fun as a game, he’d loved watching the characters fight their way through the worst and come out stronger, the good guys win, always loved the story and the courage of the characters who got through it -- but when it’s you, when you think it’s real? It’s a living nightmare. And he’d agreed to do it again. For Koharu’s sake, really, because she’d have shattered, and it was her or him. So he’d done it again.
And he hurt. It hurt. It was horrible, traumatizing, and he’d done it again, and now here he was unable to protect anyone, because he was an idiot and gotten himself killed. Because Shirogane was a cheating bitch and had killed him to frame one of the nicest girls he’d ever met (well, in character, anyway, she was a little pricklier in person once she’d stopped sobbing), killed her because she was too good of a person, too good of a protagonist.
This was the worst, and all he can do is sit next to Kaede and hug her, watching on the big screen in the contestant lounge as that poor kid, that poor traumatized detective, tries to do what neither of them could. He wishes this could end, but he’s just one kid...even with a lawyer sister, what can he do? What can anyone do?

Production updates! -New anime girls Wonder, Power, Mei, and Perseverance will be released as Option Heads soon. Wonder, Power and Mei were licensed product candidates - I will let you "wonder" which ones ;-) -Option Heads are currently offline but will be back soon - however, they will not be available to newbies placing an order for the first time due to the hassle some newbies gave us. -Smart Doll body production is expected to reach healthy levels by November 2022. We will focus on getting the frontline girls out of cryosleep and hope to start selling option bodies by Jan 2023. Folks who bought Option Heads will be given first dibs to get their hands on the Option Bodies. -We are in the middle of digitizing more free apparel patterns, which will go up in a new download section that will also contain more free 3D STL files. Feel free to use these files to learn and monetize - no permission or fees are needed ;-) -We are also preparing a batch of blue option parts - XS, Medium, and Large bewbs, Option Hand Pack 3, and bodies for Zombie and Relentless. C.C and Naruto are production ready, but they need to wait until we can catch up with body production. -Commenting has been turned off for NPC and bot control, but humans can turn it on by doing the following on your mobile phone. Position the main photo of this post in the middle of your screen. Then... Swipe up Swipe up Swipe down Swipe down Swipe left Swipe right Swipe left Swipe right And then open your keyboard and press "B" followed by "A" (has to be all caps). It may not work the first time so try and try again until you see the comment field pop up. You need to keep the photo in the middle of the screen when swiping up and down - this is what makes it difficult for the NPC's and bots. You can turn on this feature for your posts too by going to settings > privacy > bot > control > never > gonna > give > you > up. #tokyo #smartdoll #anime #manga #doll #fashion #3dprinting #fashiondoll #design #madeinjapan #japan (at Mirai Store Tokyo) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cg3eWYRhgnz/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

|| HC- Intelligentsia Guild Member ||
Tumblr media
Mirai's inventor was among one of the IPC agents in support of the Intelligentsia Guild's efforts. Prior to their passing, they had expressed interest in joining the institution but was never able to actually fulfill that goal.
After their passing, ownership of the MIRAI unit was highly contested but she vanished before a verdict can be made. The results to this day remain unknown- placed heavily upon the backburner and forgotten to be reviewed; for there were other lucrative ventures the IPC are focused upon.
Utilising her own capabilities, she expressed her interest in becoming a part of the Intelligentsia Guild to achieve her inventor's goals. Her research into the nature of Stellarons eventually led her to discover the Arcis Space Station, where she now resides until there comes a day where she is unfortunately noticed by the IPC but that has yet to come.

31. wildcard question! (sender asks something) -- What is something you'd consider one of your most favorite pieces of content creation in XIV? (Yours or another's!). What is something you wish you could change, but are also happy it exists?
Wow, these are awesome questions sweetie!! I really am having to think pretty hard in order to answer them properly.
((I'm so sorry it took so long to answer!! I didn't want to half-ass my answer! 😖))
Favorite pieces of content creation... hmmm.... there are several creations of my own and way too many by others that I adore! It's extremely hard to narrow down, but I guess I'm most impressed by just how creative my friends and mutuals really are, whether that be their ideas for their OCs, writing fanfiction, or drawing fanart, I'm constantly impressed by others' creativity.
If I had to truly think of an answer, for simplicity's sake, I'll discuss one of my own creations because if I had to try and narrow down another's creation, I think I'd be here all day talking about them.

Though I haven't talked about her in awhile, I am still extremely proud of Yume's time and dimensional traveling daughter Mirai!! TBH, it's why I still list Yume x Cid as one of my ships because I just love Mirai too much to retcon her or anything! I need to work more on her story in the future.
As for the second part of the question... this was also extremely hard to come up with a good answer for, but something that I wish I could change, but I am also happy it exists is the fact that the devs have written all relationships to be interpreted by the player with no relationship options in game. As a WoL x NPC shipper, I would absolutely die if I could actually have Yume and Graha kiss in the game for realsies, but I am also aware that if there was such a feature in the game, a lot of NPCs would potentially be left out of the dating system itself, and that would be very hurtful for those shippers of rarepairs and such. I would not want anyone to feel left out, and so I'm happy with how the devs have written it: let the players decide for themselves who they ship with.
Thank you so much for the wonderfully thought out ask @scholarlostintime!!! Once again, so sorry it took me a while to respond to this. 🥰💖

Oh hey. I forgot I have a writing blog. Here’s a WIP of my short story collection for my creative writing class. It’s a WIP for one of my major ideas I want to do.
Once every century, it is said that the planets of the solar system align perfectly. In a perfect row, they cast upon the ultimate shadow upon one another; opening the gates to other realms far from our own. It was said that the fallen god rose from this gate and set his sights on destroying our system just like his own. But where evil went, goodness was sure to follow. Out from this gate came the Holy Maiden and her summoned knight. Together, they sealed away the fallen god and cast light back into our system. The two understood that the battle was far from over. “Catch a fish for a man, he would eat for a day. Teach the man how to fish, and he eats for a lifetime.” Despite their love for each other, the Holy Maiden and her summoned knight agreed to go on separate pilgrimages to spread their teachings. The Holy Maiden remained in our system and founded us, the Holy Order, to pass on her teachings and traditions to future Holy Maidens. Her summoned knight, on the other hand, returned into the gate and spread his words to the numerous realms behind the gate. With their sacrifice, we have prevented the fallen god’s awakening over a thousand times…​
“Ay yo… so, like… cool lore but like… pretty cringy not gonna lie. You lost me at the “aligning of the planets” bit. It went from horoscope bullshit to cliched pre-teen novels with a bit of a JRPG elements in there,” a voice spoke out, breaking the breathtaking spell that weighed heavy in this beautifully painted dream.
The wind blew soft through the empty courtyard as no one said anything. In a walled-off garden stood seven bodies, each facing each other in a circle with a pond that separated each figure. Each stood on their own path that was surrounded by the water on each side but behind. A mini pier if you wish to imagine. The water was clear, yet the light was too blinding to see past the surface. All seven figures were outlined well enough to show that they were all women, yet a shadow covered their faces to remain a mystery to one another. Sitting above all this was a pink-haired woman. Her hair was braided back and looked far too youthful to be talking like an elder. Her prink eyes scanned each woman to search for the back talker, a glare like a dagger and on edge. Despite that, she kept an icy façade.
“Who cut me off? Head Nun of the Holy Order?” the pink-haired woman spoke up, looking down at the crowd of women below her.
“Uh, me.”
Slicing through the air, the Head Nun’s eyes locked on to the woman who spoke up; her hand raised slightly while maintaining the image of being smaller than what she was. Her limbs were tightly held together like a defensive turtle yet flashing a Chester cat grin in reception of the attention. “No offense lady but I felt like I heard this exact same plot with some gacha game I played last month. Can we just skip all this tutorial nonsense to get to the fuckin’ point already?” the woman continued, her blunt and straightforward words not matching the lowkey appearance she was trying to give off.
“Oh! You played Fate/Grand Order too? I’ve been trying to pull Gilgamesh for my team for months,” the woman on the right of the back talker chimed in. Though she was covered in shadow, the third party was animatedly clapping her hands together in excitement that she found a companion who played the same game.
“Eh, I stopped after two months. The drop rates are insane for that game and you don’t get enough of the in-game currency. I prefer Epic Seven since you actually win the gamble in summoning a strong hero-“
“Silence!”
Slamming her hand against the armrest of her chair, the Head Nun demanded all attention back onto her. The sound of flesh against marble echoing throughout this supernatural courtyard. Zeroing in out the outlier, the Head Nun sized her up before letting out a scoff. Receiving this judgmental look was a young woman of 21 years. If she never stood by herself, she might have blended in with a crowd with her rather ordinary looks. Brown hair, matching brown eyes, and a pair of glasses. Tell that description to any sketch artist and they would draw any other woman. One in five women look exactly like her. Was that statistically correct? Of course not, but most would believe it these days.
The nun craned her neck over these seven girls, peering down with arrogance. Who would have thought that the bold one in this group wasn’t the goth but this… loser. Despite not being affected by the spell, the rebel was overseen like the shadow of her chair or the tree’s. “Are you done speaking over me?”
“No, actually. You aren’t hurrying the fuck up and you rudely cut me off from having a pleasant and stimulating conversation from my neighbor here,” the woman said, “If you aren’t going to tell me what my horoscope is, I don’t want to hear another hour of lore.” From her sides, the woman could hear the reactions from the other girls who listen in to this back and forth. Some ‘tsk’ from her disrespectful actions while others acted a bit shocked. Of course, there were those who snickered from the show while one seemed to be rather disinterested. Tough crowd… To be fair, she wasn’t normally as blunt as she was today. She knew when to keep things to herself but quite frankly, this lady was going on for the last hour about prophecies and cosmic evils. This nun sounds like those writers who only focus on worldbuilding and not writing their story.
“Hurry up? We’re talking about the end of the world- YOUR world. This “lore” is vital. People’s lives are at stake with this information, Two,” the Head Nun said.
“Shit, really? Then why don’t you act it? Literally… no agency. This is the part where a creative writing teacher tells you “show don’t tell”,” Two answered right back; sarcasm dripping from every syllable. She wanted to correct the hag. Her name was Mia, but she understood there was anonymity for a reason. She was tactless, not stupid. Well, Mia would argue she had some tact, but her patience ran thin do this grossly, mishandled magic society. She thought those campy young adult books with groups run by idiots were meant to be… you know, fiction?
It all started right when Mia got to bed. She just got home from a long shift at work and all she wanted was nothing more than lay in bed. And that she did once she took an evening shower before bed. It was normal, everyday stuff for the third-year college student. She had school tomorrow and Mia just wanted to rest her aching body. As soon as her head hit the pillow, she opened her eyes to a completely new world. Looking around, she found herself not alone. There was one other person with her face covered and the pink-haired woman as well. Mia was greeted as “Two” and was told to wait for the other five to show.
That was an hour wasted in waiting and add in the additional hour for the hefty speech, we got our recipe for an irritated Mia. She didn’t go to bed just to stand up for two hours for some fantasy bullshit. Any other time? Sure. It’s cool. But now??? WHEN SHE HAS A TEST TOMORROW?! INCONVENIENT! It killed Mia since this was pretty fucking cool and different from the norm. Everyone dreams of being picked the chosen one but, come on… this was too predictable. If you read a fantasy book or consumed any fantasy media before, then you know what’s going on.
“Rude child. This information isn’t something as trivial as a novel,” the Head Nun spoke, looking down at Mia like a haughty teacher.
“I’m gonna assume that we’re all candidates in being chosen as the new Holy Maiden. We chose our knights or whatever. Compete and whoever wins must reseal the fallen god then tada! Happy ending! Yay!” Mia said. She even raised her hand at the ‘yay’ portion of her phrase. “Listen dude, I play too many games and read a shit ton of books for this. Can we please not do this while I’m in my pajamas?” Mia said, practically begging to be released from this mild inconvenience.
“… You guys weren’t exactly chosen. The universe brought you to us…” the Head Nun spoke, not really arguing with what Mia said. There was a cocky grin on Mia’s face as she just couldn’t help but find it funny how she got some otherworldly person tongue-tied.
“A lottery system huh… sounds about right. An NPC like me wouldn’t be chosen normally… I’m way too smart to be a main character,” Mia thought. She glances to the side for a moment before back on the show.
“Well… I’ll work with Two on this point and speed things up. Time is of the essence,” the head nun spoke, acting as if she was graciously fulfilling Mia’s wish. At this point, Mia didn’t care. Whatever helped the nun feel powerful or whatever… “As Two pointed out, all seven of you are candidates for becoming the new Holy Maiden. You will come into this realm three times a week for your lessons to strengthen your magic and during your regular days of the week, you seven will compete with one another. Your knights are the extension of your magic. When one knight trumps the other, they prove you are the strongest magic user and your defeated candidate is knocked out of the running. This continues until the last one is standing,” the nun explained, “We have hidden your faces and names from each other to keep you guys from cheating and attacking each other when you aren’t ready for combat. If you wish to fight, it’s up to you guys to discuss how to go about it.”
“A battle royal? I thought dystopian novels where kids kill each other in a game was out of fashion? I mean- they already got the Mirai Nikki vibe with the covered faces in the central hub…” Mia thought. She laughed under her breath with mild amusement at the situation. She decided to keep her thoughts hidden now as she surveys the competition. She wasn’t sure if she was going to take this seriously, but she thought she should start hiding her thoughts on the matter now. “The Head Nun never said we couldn’t figure out each other’s identity and jump them… nor any etiquettes of battle… how curious,” she continued her train of thought as she waited for the nun to finish.
“We’ll now do the summoning ritual. One, please kneel down and place your hand into the water to help your knight rise,” the Head Nun spoke. One looked around confused by the order, but she soon nervously did as she was told. She knelt and placed her hand inside. There was a good pause before One jolted. Slowly, One stood up to her feet as a tall figure rose from the water. Just like the girls, his face was hidden from everyone else but his master, no doubt. But his figure was very much noticeable.
“YO! Did you just summon a furry?!” Mia exclaimed before bursting out laughing. She pointed a finger at the girl next to her in a mocking fashion. While she couldn’t see the competition, Mia could at least see a pair of fuzzy dog ears on the knight’s head. But despite her words, Mia knew that, realistically, this knight was most likely a beast man or even a werewolf. She simply didn’t want to lose this chance to taunt her competition.
“Two! Please restrain yourself and respect your fellow maidens and their knights,” the Head Nun spoke. The pink-haired woman coughing into her hand to break up the interaction. “Now, for the love of God. Please shut up, kneel, and summon your knight.”
“Damn, at least ask for my consent before forcing me on my knees,” Mia muttered before kneeling as instructed. She felt rather stupid but seeing how the first maiden got a knight, Mia decided to just trust the action. She submerged her hand in the opaque lake. It was wet alright. Yet despite being in spitting distance to the surface, Mia couldn’t see past her reflection. “Come on RNG don’t fail me now. A hot guy would do wonders for my mental health,” Mia joked, “I hope re-rolls are free.”
On the edge of non-existence and existence, a subconscious mind rose to consciousness once more. He drowns in nothingness and breaths in hopelessness.
There was no sky nor ground to define his abysmal prison. Not even a memory to keep him company.
A hand reached out from above. A hand surrounded by light and a promise of warmth. He attempted to reach for it, yet he was restricted from moving and was forced to watch another steal the opportunity from the shadow. He watched the pair of hands meet and just like that, the light was gone.
He sank deeper into the depths of this unholy waiting room.
Yet again, a hand was extended from the dark with the temptation of freedom. Cautious to reach for it after the first time, he looked around for others who wished to take it. Many came and all walked away. No one wanted to take this hand.
He made an attempt to take it, if only to escape, but found that he was unable to pry himself free. Defeated, he decided to give up on the opportunity. It was pointless anyways.
Left unheld, the hand does not reel empty handed. No. Instead, it curled its fingers until one finger remained up.
One big ‘fuck you’.
What the fuck? So much for an inviting presence. Who did this person think they are? It wasn’t like he didn’t try to take their hand. But seeing this middle finger dangling in front of him like a fishhook with bait, he reached for it once more to drag the hand down into the depths with him. He was tied in place but after some furious tugs, he was freed with a pop.
Taking the hand, it became evident that the one getting snatched wasn’t them but him. Curled fingers shifted forms into a vice grip around his wrist upon skin contact. The dark veil that covered him were ripped off in that instance. Lights, sounds, textures, tastes, and smells flooded his senses as he became a person once again.
Planting both feet on the ground, Mia used both hands to reel up her prey. This summoning was nothing graceful like the girl next to her. It was primal and chaotic as Mia’s partner was floundering under the water. So much for a knight in shining armor. This guy isn’t fighting any dragons anytime soon if he’s having difficulty wrestling against an inanimate substance.
Letting out a battle cry, Mia used all her strength to bring her knight to the surface and onto the pier with her. It wasn’t his entire body but enough of it was on land that it was easier to drag the rest of him out with less trouble. Mia fell backwards on her butt and was slightly out of breath after that intensive ritual. Shiiiit. Carrying a body is a lot harder than it looks kids! Don’t trust what you see on TV. The more you knowミ★
Mia was the image of ‘tired’ with her slightly flushed cheeks and skewed. Fanning herself, she patiently waited for the man she pulled out to make the first move, yet he was belly-down, still as a door nail. For someone who had a lot of energy to fight against help, he suddenly became as complacent as a kitten.
Oh fuck... he isn’t dead, is he? Cause that’ll be pretty awkward ngl ┐(´-`)┌
Mia leaned forward to inspect what she pulled out. She lifted his pale arm to search for a pulse. It was cold to the touch and she couldn’t tell if the steady thud she felt was his or an echo of her own. Upon letting it go, it limply fell to the ground with no flinch from him. Crap. Don’t tell her that she accidentally pulled out a dead body?! Well, Mia knew that pulling trash can happen during fishing mini games but she thought that this more of a “guarantee knight summoning” deal. Mia refused to believe that she waited five humiliating minutes waiting just to pull out a corpse. She wants a refund, god damn it!
Moving his head, Mia planned to check his pulse from his neck to double check if he was dead. There was no resistance in the action, yet she found herself meeting a pair of responsive red eyes peaking from between snowy white hair. The two of them stared at each other for a moment as they both seemed like caught criminals in the middle of a crime. The man’s chest raised up and down as he breaths; a piece of evidence that doesn’t escape Mia’s attention. He’s…
“HE’S HOT!!!”
Scrambling to her feet, Mia put both her hands in the air and let out her victory screech to the worried silhouettes surrounding her. No wait- she should be yelling how he was alive, not his appearance. Yet here she was, doing a victory dance on top of her knight in a pair of polka dotted pajamas. Give her a pitchfork and a tail then you got the image of an imp dancing on a grave. “Bro! He’s so hot... Edward Cullen lookin’ ass- I mean, not like the musty looking Robert Patterson version but how you imagine he look like based on the description,” Mia explained to anyone listening with a wildly inaccurate and vague description of the man. She waved her arms animatedly as she gossiped with her peers with the person in question crawling to his feet.
“Dude, that should be the last of your concerns,” Five said.
“I think you should make sure he’s okay…” Seven said, joining Five in expressing concern.
“Whoa there! You can’t really blame my maiden here for getting hung up on my dashing good looks. Dead or alive, you’ll notice my face first before anything else.”
Laying a heavy hand on Mia’s right shoulder, the man wrapped his arm around the woman to stand in solidarity it her. Surprised by the action, Mia tilt her head to the side to look at her knight to judge which side he was playing on. She locked eyes with him once more but not on accident this time. His touch was uncomfortable, yet she doesn’t push him away. They were a pair of souls with two different goals yet had a silent agreement to meet in the middle for the moment.
“Good to see you again, Catherine. You hardly look over two thousand years old,” Mia’s knight said, being the first to break their line of sight to look at the Head Nun. The nun sneered as the source of her stress doubled over the course of ten minutes.
“Ashley…” the Head Nun said, nearly hissing out the name. Her knuckles were turning white due to how tightly she held onto her armrest.
“Ash,” he corrected her, with equal amount of distaste in return. Ash was smiling but he on edge just like the Head Nun. But this rivalry was interrupted when Mia pinched Ash’s hand to catch his attention. He looked back down to receive Mia’s disapproving expression at his brief quip with the Head Nun. It seemed hypocritical that Mia was suddenly policing his attitude considering she was flaunting on the competition, but Ash clocked on what’s making her step in. “It’s okay,” Ash said, leaning down to whisper into Mia’s left ear, “This was just between me and her. No one heard me use my name. Not like it matters.”
“I’m just disappointed that you don’t have a chainsaw arm,” Mia whispered back, pretending she never had that concern by throwing out a seemingly random thought. Ash stared at her as if she was insane and as if to say ‘what are you talking about’ with expressions alone. “What? You never seen the Evil Dead franchise?” Mia whispered, “Not a fan of zombies movies?”
“You watched me rise from the depths, fight other knights, and you’re asking me if I’ve seen a movie?” Ash said, in disbelief at her question yet finding himself amused by it at the same time.
“I take it that you don’t have Netflix in the void then.”
Watching the duo snicker and conspire with each other like a pair of high school delinquents, the Head Nun rubbed her forehead as a migraine began to surface. She was losing control once again thanks to double trouble. Even the other girls who were patiently waiting began talking among each other. “Oh my god… like I thought, this was the worst combination I’ve ever seen in my lifetime…,” the Head Nun muttered to herself. She covered her face as she shook her head slowly as if she was contemplating something. “I didn’t realize it would be this bad… Out of all the times for that guy to make an appearance, he had to end up with her,” she continued muttering before ultimately lifting her head to look down at Mia and her summoned knight. The Head Nun needed to separate them. “Ah, Two? I don’t mean to disturb your… fun. But you summoned one of the more… troublesome knights considering his background. I’ll allow you to “re-roll”. How does that sound?” the Head Nun spoke, her voice sickening sweet and obviously fake.
Mia and Ash quickly turned to look at each other for how their partner would react. They wordlessly conversed with Mia gesturing the two of them then to the Head Nun. Ash’s only reply was an uncaring shrug but ended up nervously shaking off the water that stuck to his hair to appear distracted. “Yeah… no deal, Howie Mandel,” Mia said, trailing off for a moment to gauge last minute expressions from Ash before turning her full attention on the Head Nun. “You doing that makes me want to stick with Mr. Abominable Albino even more,” she said.
“Abominable Albino?” Ash said. He had a hand over his chest and appeared almost offending by the alliteration. He was hardly offended by being called such a thing but the fact that Mia wasted a braincell to make an awful pun in the middle of a fantastical end-of-the-world scenario.
“Whenever some untrustworthy figure makes some inflammatory comment about one of the leads, they’re obviously doing that to cause aa divide between the leads for their own benefit,” Mia continued as she ignored Ash’s offense to her words. She waved her hand in the air as if to disperse the fog of misinformation. “You even had a mini aside moment where you muttered to the readers that there’s something more about Ash!”
“Pardon?”
The Head Nun looked completely lost as Mia’s rambling turned to the meta and spoke about invisible audience members. But just like Ash, Mia ignored her words to continue her spiel. “And even if he’s a piece of shit. Worthless. Good for nothing. Pathetic. Dead weight. Only a pretty vase-“
“Okay. I think she gets it already,” Ash said, cutting in as the terms began to pile in his heart. He squeezed Mia’s shoulder to have her move on to the point.
“I will never give him up,” Mia said.
“And... why is that?” the Head Nun asked, wringing her dress in fear that Mia figured something out that she wasn’t supposed to.
“Because he is hot. I made that pretty clear since the beginning,” Mia said. She held her head high and mighty with not even a hint of shame. For a moment, Ash was about to feel touched by Mia coming to his defense. Touched enough that it would make him loyal to her and act as a spark to a turbulent but heartfelt young adult love story which would turn into a mildly popular trilogy with an eventual movie deal before fading into obscurity. But the curtains closed on that sparkling yet oddly specific future as Ash realized that he was stuck with the weird kid. “I mean- I guess I value him as a person too… or something. Power of belief or whatever inspirational term author’s like to use to tug on heartstrings.”

Naruto Shippuden, ep 489-493
The Shikamaru shinden filler. The problem is... I don’t like Shikamaru. So I found this filler quite tedious on the whole. 
489: 
Kakashi hates being called the Hokage and doesn’t wear the robes at all if he can help it, seems like. 
The way Naruto is... framed (since he only appears in one scene and one short vision of sorts) in this filler is really weird. Like, Shikamaru really, really, really thinks he should be Hokage. But at the same time, he’s also very clearly pedestaling Naruto, to the point of excluding him from what is actually going on in the village and the world at large, even when Sai, one of Naruto’s friends, is involved. Naruto also doesn’t seem to be doing any sort of training for his future role, unlike Shikamaru. It creates a frankly uncomfortable picture. 
Shikamaru and Onoki play chess. Travel times are apparently just not a thing anymore. 
Konoha is rebuilding a lot at this point (2 years after the war, I think?)
Shikamaru’s genin team have all gone their separate ways now and have separate jobs/teams. They even have little kouhais, apparently. 
There has been a drop in shinobi requests for “3 periods.” The five villages send two representatives each for regular meetings, it seems. 
There are many missing persons after the war. Many have been going to Land of Silence as missing nin. 
Their leader is Gengo. They might threaten the Shinobi Alliance. 
Sai led a team of 10 Anbu to investigate. 
This is apparently in breach of faith to the alliance? I’m not really clear on the politics here, tbh. 
Shikamaru is given two underlings. Ro, who can manipulate his own and others’ chakra, creating anachronism in perception to hide their chakra. (This part is quite weird later because so many characters are suddenly able to sense chakra now so this ability can be brought up, including random NPCs and Chouji.) And Soku, who is an Anbu. Her real name is Hinoko, and she’s only 14 but was recruited straight out of Academy. She uses homing chakra needles that can hit acupoints. 
Shikamaru visits graves once a month. 
Kurenai has a babysitter who just moved to Konoha. Mirai calls Shikamaru nii-chan. 
Shikamaru tells Naruto to take as many missions as possible so that people come to subconsciously rely on him for everything (???) The Hokage really is just a figurehead, god. 
490: 
Tobari Village. 
They go undercover as coal merchants, complete with a permit. 
Tobari folks check customer background and give passes. They are cheaper than other villages. 
The filler raises the issue that peace is not really good for shinobi business and also the issue of the daimyo profiting off the struggles and death of shinobi. None of this is meaningfully addressed, of course. 
You Can Never Leave (your village). 
Komori, one of Gengo’s people. 
491: 
They gave Shikamaru a blank book to carry around, to show how they have basically no info on Gengo. Every shinobi is such a dramatic bitch. 
Fushu Castle. 
Gengo has been around the Land of Silence for 10 years. They kicked out the daimyou. This is interesting since we later find out that Gengo was part of Zabuza’s group but betrayed him (I’m not clear whether he’s the traitor that caused the Mizukage assassination to fail, or if he betrayed Zabuza at some later point). Ten years before this point would be three or so years before part 1. 
Minoichi, former Anbu who killed his entire squad during the war and ran off. 
Gengo’s stated goal is to get rid of all the daimyo to create a perfect world for shinobi. Is this like... Outer Heaven? 
Shikamaru’s team actually talks to a normal person, super rare in Naruto, who says that life hasn’t changed much with Gengo in charge instead of the daimyou. 
492: 
Sai is insecure that he doesn’t matter to Naruto as much as Sasuke and Sakura. Man, Team 7 was not kind to the later additions. 
Gengo kind of reads Shikamaru wrong? Shikamaru didn’t really choose to be a ninja, it’s the family business. His dad was the clan head. I don’t think he had that much choice. He also doesn’t seem to be all that into training either, since his deal is lazy genius. 
The brainwashing flowers make the dull plot even more boring since it really saps the emotional weight out of everything. 
Temari’s The Last deisgn doesn’t look like her. I can’t explain it too well, but she doesn’t feel like herself at all. 
493: 
Ino tries to punch Sai in a very Sakura-like way. 
Sai got handsome. I wish I was a bit more into Inosai. 
Naruto in Shikamaru’s head: RAMEN
Shikamaru’s cute kouhai from the start is named Yurito. 
You can tell I totally clocked out as this arc went on, haha.

White Book - Part 5
Tumblr media
“Shin Megami Tensei Devil Children: White Book”
Game Summary / English Translation (Gameboy Color, 2001)
Part 1 / Part 2 / Part 3 / Part 4 / Part 5 / Part 6 / Part 7 /  Part 8
This is a (mostly-complete) translation of the story portions of the game as well as a summary of story-related text in chronological order. Names and dialogue have been edited for easier reading. Scene locations are labeled using square brackets. I will be using default names for characters who can be renamed.
Part 5 – Harajuku:
[ Hospital ]
Masaki exits the Makai Gate on the roof of his school. Proceed to Shou’s room at the Hospital.
As Masaki enters the room…
Mr. Ougi: “That’s enough, Takaharu! We all know Masaki is to blame for Shou’s condition! There’s nothing he can do to make this right!”
Takaharu: “You’re wrong! Masaki didn’t hurt Shou, and he’s been helping me find a way to help her!”
Takaharu: “Masaki! Hurry—give Shou the cure!”
 Masaki uses the cure on Shou and she wakes up.
Takaharu: “It worked!”
Shou: “What? Where am I?”
Shou: “I remember there was a monster… what happened?”
Masaki: “We were all really worried for you, Shou. I couldn’t stop that monster from attacking you, and you got hurt… I’m sorry.”
Shou: “No… I’m sorry. I didn’t listen when you told me it was dangerous. You did your best to protect me.”
Shou: “And then you gave me medicine to wake up—thank you!”
Masaki: “Thank your big brother, too! He was the one who found the medicine. We wouldn’t have been able to cure you without all his hard work.”
Takaharu: “Hey, don’t give me all the credit! I wouldn’t have been able to get it without your help, Masaki!”
Mr. Ougi: “Hmph. Shou’s recovered and that’s all that matters. All you kids go home now.”
Shou: “Bye-bye Masaki! Let’s play at my house, okay?”
Mr. Ougi: “…I guess you have my gratitude, Masaki. I don’t know why someone like you would help Takaharu, but I’ll accept it for now.”
They leave.
 [ Harajuku Area ]
There is new dialogue available on the DeviPhone:
Franken/Parallel – Explains the DVDAS archive search function.
Setsuna – Says Takaharu has new information for Masaki.
Mirai – (the line is busy)
Takaharu – He found a Book of Raziel in Makai, that Masaki might be interested in having. He put it in the closet by his bed.
The NPCs in the area will comment on Shou’s recovery and are happy that Masaki was not the one who hurt Shou.
 [ Ougi Residence ]
Masaki speaks to Takaharu’s mom:
Mrs. Ougi: “Hello Masaki! I can’t thank you enough for helping Shou! She’s in her room if you want to say hello.”
Mrs. Ougi: “By the way—Takaharu was trying to call you. Did you get his message?”
 Masaki speaks to Shou in her room:
Shou: “Hi Masaki!”
Masaki: “Hey there, Shou! Are you feeling better?”
Shou: “Yup, thanks!”
Shou: “Hey… I had a really weird dream when I was asleep.”
Masaki: “Yeah?”
Shou: “Mm-hmm! In my dream…”
Flashback to Shou’s dream. A shadowy winged figure speaks to someone unknown:
???: “…we must kill the sleeping girl. Takaharu will blame her death on Masaki. His hatred for Masaki is essential for our plan to move forward.”
Returning to the present:
Masaki: “…their plan…”
Shou: “I don’t understand it, but… if the monsters make me go to sleep again, I don’t think you’ll be able to save me…”
Masaki: “Shit… now I’m really worried about Takaharu, too. Do you know where he is?”
Shou: “Daddy took Takaharu to his work building… they were both acting kinda weird.”
 Masaki finds the Book of Raziel in Takaharu’s room:
“The stolen child and a boy from the past are held, guarded, within the forest. Fulfill the mother’s yearning to forge a new bond.”
 [ Harajuku Tower ]
When Masaki tries to go further into the building, security guards stop him:
Security: “Hey, kid! You can’t be here!”
Takaharu: “Wait! Masaki!”
Masaki: “Takaharu! I’ve been looking for you! Is everything ok between you and your dad?”
Takaharu: “Well… he’s in a meeting with the Angels.”
Masaki: “Did you say Angels!? As in… what we’re dealing with?”
Takaharu: “Yeah… they’re discussing with him about how to best utilize my power as an Angel Child.”
Masaki: “How to ‘utilize’ your power? That sounds sus.”
Takaharu: “They’re leaving me out of the meeting. I have a really bad feeling about this, Masaki. You should leave before they notice you’re here.”
Takaharu goes back into the building. The security guards still prevent Masaki from investigating the building.
 As Masaki exits Harajuku Tower, a frantic frost appears:
Frost: “Hee-Ho! Where is he, Ho!? I’m sure he went to Earth, Ho!”
Masaki: “You doing okay, little guy?”
Frost: “Hee! I found Masaki, Ho! Makai is in danger, Ho!”
Masaki: “Danger…? What happened?”
Frost: “King Frost was captured by Angels, Ho! They’re taking over Glacies Makai, Ho! Save us, Hee-Ho!”
 [ Harajuku Elementary School – Makai Gate ]
As Masaki approaches the Gate, he is stopped:
???: “Aha ha ha! Just as I predicted—the Devil Child Masaki has appeared!”
Masaki: “And you are…?”
Uriel: “I am the great Angel Uriel. You shall meet your demise at my hands.”
Masaki: “Uh-huh. And before you do that, could you please explain to me how the Angels think I’m ‘interfering’ in their dumb plans or whatever?”
Uriel: “Your mere existence is an interference. The Angels aspire to create a world devoid of demons. Since the power of demons lives within you… you too shall be purged.”
Masaki: “It’s pretty fucked up that the Angels think committing genocide is a good idea. Are you seriously okay with that plan?”
Uriel: “The Angels are righteous in their decision. Nothing you say will sway us from our path. The Devils previously defied the wrath of Heaven with powers like yours, denying us our Armageddon.”
Uriel: “You will end your journey here. Come to me, soldiers!”
 Boss fight versus Uriel. When Masaki wins:
Uriel: “……”
Uriel vanishes.
 Masaki can now proceed to the Gate. He accesses the gate and is teleported back to Glacies Makai…

hey do you have any suggested follower mods? i’m starting a new play through and always have like 7ish followers with me at any time, but i’m bored of the vanilla ones (i’ve already got lucien, kaidan, inigo and auri btw)
Oh I run it kinda heavy with SSE. For both SSE and LE I still suggest Interesting NPCs if your space can still handle it. If not, Khajiit will Follow works really good. The VA is great! If it's banter you're looking for, Anna NPCs have that~ the girls talk to Inigo, Kaidan, and Lucien as well (randomly fires so no pressure)
My personal picks to add to that perfect four you have are Arissa, Vilja, (Mirai, M'rissi as well if you can stomach the anime-ish vibe xD) or if you're on LE why not Xanthys and Jarek? They have dialogues together! :'D
I hope it helps, happy gaming!! 💗
