#once again a masterpiece!

PART 3

The world might have been unfamiliar to you, but you recognized a lot of it from the words of your fiancee, like the forge he mentioned.

And how did you know it was the same forge? That's pretty simple.

You fiancee was standing right there.

Although... something seemed very different about him. He didn't seem to be the person you knew. There was something very naive about how he presented himself there.

Not knowing if it's a good idea to approach him, you decided to leave. But right before you go, the two of you madke eye contact once. You felt him stare at you while you tried to go as far as possible.

The one thing in your mind is: if his words were all true, falling in love with you might mean his death. That's the last thing you want to see happening. So why not enjoy your second chance at life in a different manner? You would miss him, yes, but for some reason it didn't hurt you to think about that.

You realize the reason: it seems like you aren't human this time around. No wonder some feelings seemed to be weaker to you. It's not entirely numb, but at the same time, it wasn't too strong.

Some years pass. You were not sure how many.

You have settled down in a nation called Inazuma. Life wasn't too easy, but it wasn't that bad either. You wouldn't mind staying there forever. And you would have.

Until you saw him again.

He stopped in front of you, a smirk on his face, acting in a completely different manner than the man you knew in your previous life.

"You're coming with me."

And just like that, he takes you, making you work under him for an organization called the "Fatui". However, he had a soft spot for you. It seemed like he didn't bring you in to do the same work as the others. Your role was to "keep him in a good mood".

You weren't sure why he has taken a liking to you, even after you made sure to avoid him. Maybe both of you meeting is something that can't be avoided. You tried to not pay it any mind, since you still liked him despite the many differences from the one you were engaged to.

The more you interacted with him, the more you realized he's indeed the same person you knew. Except, well, he wasn't human. Maybe he lacked one thing here and another there, but you assumed he was just younger at the time.

Everything goes well, until the organization decides to turn him into a god or something like that. You didn't really undestand what was going on, but he took you to sumeru with him. He seemed really excited.

Of course, just like you expected, things didn't work very well, and he ended up being defeated. Right about that time, you deserted the fatui, and not much after you noticed that everyone around you completely forgot he ever existed.

You didn't question it much, and a while after the man (puppet?) himself came to explain it all to you. As soon as he realized you could remember who he was, he didn't hesitate in telling you everything. About the traveler and his companion, about irminsul, about how he erased himself, how Lesser Lord Kusanali backed up his memories in a way that they could stay even if he didn't exist anymore.

And his explanation made you realize that maybe there might be someone who can find a solution for that loop.

(We are getting there!)

My haitani father Shio headcanon is just a bit too funny cuz of how well it works that it sounds like a waste of perfect canon idea and crossover for both of wakui's works.

Aside from the obvious physical features very very obvious, identical eyes, nose, blonde eyebrows, rindou's face form, ran's hair color palette and (arguably) bonten hair style, blah blah i mean just look a the pictures below, you can also bring up any fact from either manga and add it to the hc and it fits in just SO WELL, i'll give the first example, The Haitanis are very obviously rich spoiled kids like have you seen their apartment? They have a fucking dj set, only rich kids with neglective powerful parents will have no problem paying for that, just saying, and even though i love him let's be real Shio is the type to be that parent, i mean cmon he's rich like crazy rich (filthy yakuza money yum yum) he tots would give his children WAY more than enough allowance so they can leave him alone, also the way they act, i've always the Haitanis were the type of kids that think they own the school cuz their dad is rich .

Nvm if this never becomes canon or both universes don't collide, it's just so entertaining to keep connecting the dots that were likely never there, like how Rindou is a heavy drinker cuz his father drank alot with the rest of the Yotsurugis and he tried to imitate him from a young age that it became an unhealthy habit or if you want to add more drama he only drinks cuz he looks up to his father but Shio favors Ran cuz he can posssibly succeed him (canon power complex) so Rindou resorted to drinking cuz it's the only thing like his dad that he can do. Heck yeah i made it angsty!!!

You can also add great context to his fear of Yakuza, picture this, when he was a kid he got up in the middle of night after hearing a loud noise to search for his parents and witnessed Shio (canon Yakuza) pew pew-ing some poeple and surrounded with scary men, that probably scarred him for life that he was so terrified when Kakucho got them interfering with some, OH OH something just came to mind, if he's the son of a yakuza yeah he didn't wanna clash with other yakuza families cuz it can end in a blood shed and risk his and his family's lives.

And i'm gonna add this one not very small detail and i swear i'll shut up (for now), i know it's just a stupid headcanon that is very far from becoming reality and i don't have to take it this deep but hear me out, why their last name is Haitani and not Yotsurugi like their dad, Shio is powerful and have many enemies right ? So he simply decided to protect his children and their identity by giving them another last name likely their mother's (yk like minato with naruto style plan ?) So Haitani is actually their mom's family name. I rest my case. Thank you for coming to my useless ted talk.

really hoping riverdale does a reverse queerbait. not to be confused with a straightbait, a reverse queerbait is when they queerbait you but then you forget about it because faux lesbian kissing hasn't been taboo since 1994 but then in the last season after six seasons of the faux lesbians dating bois the faux lesbians become actual lesbians because it's 1955 and it's taboo again

my sister requested I read Gideon the Ninth and report back to her on how similar it was to Homestuck (which she has not and refuses to read) so naturally I made an informative slide show to educate her on the subject. thought I'd share it here. it's been a hot minute since I read Homestuck so if I missed anything feel free to let me know and I'll pass it along!

this was written for an audience that's read Gideon but not Homestuck, but it should be understandable in the other direction probably? like I think you can extrapolate? spoilers obviously.

HSR x Fate UBW coming in Q3 2025 !

(I write these in mind for anyone doesn't know Fate series at all)

For now it's unknown will it come with stories or just skin or full pack with playable UBW character

Not long ago HSR had interview with FGO team, the magazine only release their Q&A but considering both side love each other project, these collab shouldn't really suprising. If there's suprising fact is why only UBW not FGO directly ? Since there is no info about collab details, let's make some analysis for now :

FGO especially Fate series is really big world ! If you need comparasion, it's not only Honkai Impact world but all Hoyoverse become one and you need to know at least a bit of each title to make sense about Fate series !

Continuing point above, which is the reason they gave us years for this collab ! Their developer consider years should be enough for player to quick read most Fate series franchise (lol)

Fate as whole already into their 20 years old now so it's kinda impossible for anyone to learn that series from start (even I only know fifty percent of it). So to make it simple, they just pick their well known franchise but not making players too confused about their world building which is Fate Stay Night. UBW is decent choice considering what's happened with other two.

If anyone need comparasion, UBW kinda like GGZ in term of popularity and reminiscing (lol) while FGO kinda like former Genshin in term of popularity.

I kinda saw FGO pretty desperate nowdays or maybe they're already out of idea to promote Fate series onward. For anyone doesn't know, FGO was the king of mobile gacha games but after Genshin release their revenue drop sharply and with more Chinese gacha games out lately, you can say now it's their lowest situations so to be honest Fate series feels like gonna dying sooner or later which is this collab came.

I can say for sure that this collab came from HSR side since those otaku ops growth like now while watching/reading Fate series (lol) so I think there's no way HSR or even Fate team will slack off especially for storytelling since it's Fate main selling (if there's one for collab later lol)

Onto collab prediction since it's specifically UBW, means the main character is either Rin or/and Emiya. Maybe anyone still not read questionable leaks but there's info this collab need two version to finish means there's at least four and max six new character avaliable later. Considering UBW stories, I can think of Saber and Gilgamesh or maybe Kirei can join the roaster too.

Now for everyone who doesn't know Fate series and need pointer for later collab, first please watch Fate Stay Night, it have three titles with same story premise but different PoV with different ending (Fate Stay Night 24 episode -> Fate Stay Night Unlimited Blade Works 1 movie -> Fate Stay Night Heaven's Feel 3 parts movie). Next it's Fate Stay Night prologue, Fate Zero 24 episode and you're good to breakthrough the collab only.

Sounds simple right, which is the reason they choose Unlimited Blade Works for collab. If FGO, you could swarm yourself with 9 years FGO lore materials + other works with and without "Fate" titles on it (lol)

watched the movie knife + heart today and it was really good. if there's one thing u gotta know about me is I love love love it when sadist characters kill people in homoerotic manners. wait I don't think u understand. this guy had a dildo that turned into a knife. it was dildo... and he'd press a button(?) on it... and a blade would pop out of the tip. of the penis. dildo knife. and he killed cute men with it homoerotically. lots of hot gay porn in this movie btw. gay porn was actually incredibly central to the plot, I can't stress this enough. lots of sucking and fucking on screen and two (2) cum shots. or maybe four, depending on how you're counting them. and a gay sadist with a tortured past doing homoerotic murder!!!!!!! needless to say this film was unfortunately french.
