#so thank you gjdjfjsj

[osteichthyens]

have you completed the interlude quest yet 👁️

i have.. and i literally read it all in leaks and then played it all the second version 3.3 dropped.. and i just.. gjdjfjjs dottoscara i love you so much 🫶

but i hate the irminsul erasure part with a passion though... as a jojo stan, i've got a deadly allergy to memory erasure tropes, because that stone ocean ending killed 14yo me really fucking hard.. so i felt ill for the entire day afterward 😭😭😭

(more thoughts and lots of spoilers after the divide gndnnd)

but anyway... lemme just.. more precisely lay out my thoughts :

- i kinda hate how niwa wasn't really mentioned anywhere before 3.3, except twice (once indirectly, in i don't remember what, and once in a flashback during the irodori festival, which was a limited time event), but then.. oh, apparently he was an important guy and is actually kazuha's ancestor that we saw in the cutscene.. like aight...??? still shipping nameless eccentric scara with npc ass katsuragi, though. he's the one who rescued him from his lovely prison, and who did a sword dance with him.. and i wanna draw him climbing that guy like a tree gkdkfkdk

- mihoyo are just cowards again and should fuck off with that 'ball joints that disappear with time' bullshit

- i love how much of a poor little meow meow scara truly is, and i could write a whole ass essay on how much i love the toxic waste of a relationship he had with dottore. unhealthy ships like that are just... my raison d'être 😭😭

and for poor little meow meow scara, well... la signora said, 'you're only sixth because you're better than humans at enduring dottore's abuse and torture...' ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

and ough. 'if he proves to be useful, let's make him one of our comrades, and if he isn't, let's turn him to dust' or something... he wasn't a harbinger, he was an asset.. 🫶

- scara and childe are both abyss connaisseurs, which is really funny, because scara, literally a puppet made by the electro archon, came back broken af everytime, while childe, a normal human kid, came out of there with only a newly acquired thirst for blood and some heretical teachings from the abyss under his wing, thanks to skirk. and also no more light in his eyes, but that's just a small detail.

- and speaking of no light in his eyes, scara without the trauma was so airheaded and baby.. and i understand dottore there, somewhat, because i also wanted to ruin him

- but again, the memory erasure kinda ruined a big part of the story for me. like,, guy just has the option to never face the consequences of his actions, ever, now. and also, even if he wants to take revenge on dottore for all the shit he made him go through, he's probably just gonna be faced with a 'who are you again??' so. meh. dislike that part a lot. especially so soon after the same happened to rukkhadevata. so, unless mihoyo make the harbingers remember him somehow, in a later quest, i'm gonna keep being salty

- last but not least, because i'm shit at sorting out my thoughts and i've got a lot more i'm leaving out to make this answer Not a whole ass novel : i love how people are finally realising that miko was literally never the 'evil mother in law' that some people in the fandom thought she was. i despised seeing her mischaracterised so much, and as both a miko and scara stan, i just.. guys why

but now it's good and i hope people learn to read and to not just hate women for no reason gnejfj ❤️

and ok now i've run my mouth way too much, so p.s.
