i need to ask her

what’s going on?

are we going strong?

May - Part I

It’s the Monday before your flight.

April had come and April had gone and you were still struggling to focus on anything but your kids and issues with Harry. You suppose that’s okay, your next deadline was months away and with the trip coming up all you could focus on were those things. 

Mother’s Day had slipped your mind completely. You were busy making lists and triple checking flight info to even think of asking the kids and Harry about their plans. 

“How was your weekend? Everything went well?” Dr. Walsh’s voice forces you to look up from the new watch that adorns your wrist. 

You glance at Harry, who waits for you to answer. You shrug. “It was nice… Harry and the kids treated me yesterday.” 

The watch is a beautiful rose gold color and is a thin band compared to the band of your last watch. Your kids initials had been engraved onto the inner band. It was, by all means, a lovely and well thought out gift. Not only replacing the watch you had worn for a decade and had finally snapped, but reminding of the best parts of your life. 

“Tell me about your day!” Dr. Walsh smiles kindly. Her eyes move between you and Harry, polite and u judging, before landing on your wrist.

“I got breakfast, at the table, breakfast in bed is too hectic with three kids and a baby.” You laugh softly, thinking of the kids and their not well hidden excitement for your day. “And they all got me gifts. The twins made clay handprints in school. Seph picked out a new wallet for me and even bought it on her own!” 

It’s impossible to contain your happiness that rolls off of you when you talk about the kids. Bragging about their thoughtfulness and kind gifts makes you almost forget where you are.

“That sounds so lovely.” Dr. Walsh brings you back down. Your eyes move to Harry. His eyes are open and he’s smiling softly as you speak. But his fingers are fidgeting in his lap and you know he had hoped you would be proud of his gift too. 

And you were. But maybe that was the worst part. That it was kind hearted and well thought out and so very Harry that you almost hated it. You hated how one small gift had caused a sliver of hope to crawl into your bloodstream and make your heart race for him again. 

That it made you believe, for one brief moment, all his promises and words about never falling out of love with you and never wanting to let you go. 

“Harry got me a watch too.” You finally say, quiet and full of despair. “Mine snapped a few weeks ago… It has the kids initials in it. It was a good day.” 

Dr. Walsh nods. “It’s a lovely watch.” Her eyes move pointedly from it on your wrist to you. “So what’s wrong?” 

You fiddle with it, twisting it on your wrist and tapping the face anxiously. “It feels tainted.” You steadily avoid looking at Harry as you say the words. Dr. Walsh nods, but doesn’t say anything, silently urging you to continue. “I love it. And that… makes me feel guilty. And it makes me feel dumb because one stupid gift made me forget this bullshit for a second and I just felt that love for him again.”

There’s an intake of breath to your right, but Dr. Walsh doesn’t look at all shocked by your words. “It makes sense. You want to be angry. You have a right to be angry and when something gets in the way of that, you’re unsure of how to feel.” 

You nod. Her words make sense. You did want to be angry and after your brief elation with the gift you found you still were. 

“I am going to feel like this for the rest of my life?” You whisper. 

She shakes her head. “No. One day, this anger will be gone. But… it’s up to you whether or not you can get there with each other. If you can forgive Harry and let go of the anger. Or not. Neither is wrong.” 

You nod. Sometimes these sessions felt like she was strictly talking to you. Harry just listened. Spoke up when you asked him to, or when Dr. Walsh worked on exercises. 

A part of you found that it helped. You were able to say things you may not have ever said to Harry. But sometimes it felt like he was unsure if he should try and that made you angrier. 

-

Harry’s hopes are built up and shattered. It’s his own fault, he knows it is. Knows that this was an easily fixable marriage before he fucked up. 

You’ve talked about the cheating a little in therapy. Dr. Walsh has mentioned it, you’ve let your anger out, Harry has apologized. It’s a cycle that seems never ending. He doesn’t know what to do. All he wants so desperately is to fucking fix it. 

But...

The drive has been silent. You stare out the window at cars and buildings that pass. There are bags in the truck rustling around, a last minute stop for last minute items needed for the trip. 

You had been silent in the store too. Quietly checking off your list as Harry pushed the cart behind you. Had his gift upset you this much? You still loving him made you this angry? 

“I… I don’t know what to do.” Harry finally says, forcing his voice to cut through the silence. You startle and turn to look at him. “Tell me what to do.” He pleads. 

He knows you can hear the desperation in his voice. Whether or not you were angry at him, you knew him, you knew his tells and his emotions. 

“What do you want me to say, H?” Your voice is a whisper but still harsh. “I don’t know! I don’t know what you can do! Build a time machine. Don’t cheat on me.” 

“It feels like we’re going in circles.” Harry tries to keep his calm. He wants to keep the anxiety and hurt out of his voice. “Like, you’re angry then you see this chance and there’s hope, then there’s anger again.” 

You scoff. “I’m sorry my pain isn’t linear enough for you! I’m sorry that sometimes I see glimpses of you and I’m reminded of us ten years ago, so in love and oblivious to the outside world. Sorry that it all comes crashing down when I remember that you fucking cheated on me!” 

Harry sighs and his grip on the steering wheel tightens. “I fucked up so bad. I know. I know. God, what can I do? Anything.” 

“Why did you do it?” You ask instead of answering. There’s a coldness in your words and Harry’s aware you’re both trapped in the car for another twenty minutes. So are you, apparently. “And don’t give me the same bullshit about being selfish and not knowing why and it being a mistake.” 

Harry feels desperation claw at his throat and tears burning in the corner of his eyes. It’s like he can’t breathe, trapped in a coffin of your anger and his guilt. He tries to keep his eyes focused on the road as he talks. “I… I felt wanted. I liked the attention.” 

There’s a sharp intake of breath, but Harry keeps his face forward and eyes focused. “Tell me what happened.” 

“Y/N…” Harry trails off. “I… I can’t.”

You groan and fall forward with your head in your hands. “I need to know, H. I don’t… I just need to know because all I can think about is these what if situations and scenarios in my head. And I’ll just keep running through them until I hate you.”

Harry bites down on his lip and spares a glance at you. “What if… What if I tell you and you hate me anyways?” The question is unfair. He knows it is. But he can’t fathom a world without you in it. A world where he sees you on drop off days and has to plan separate holidays. 

“I don’t know.” You say quietly. But, it feels like answer enough. There’s no reason for you not to leave. 

And Harry guesses a promise to try was never really a promise to stay.

Being Elena’s twin was difficult, like when you were int e car with your parents and Her, when it crashed. Elena got out without a scratch, you got out. So badly damaged the doctors put you into a medical induced coma for a few months too help your body heal. When you woke up everything was different. Your world turned upside down. You struggled with your new reality with No parents, your sister being distant and cold and not telling you anything. Your brother soon joined in on keeping secrets from you and trying too distract you from the truth. It soon traveled thru your group of friends, from Caroline , Tyler, Matt, and Bonnie. They all kept secrets from you. Everyone in your life started treated you differently after the accident. Poor damage orphan. Who was on the brick of death. It drove you crazy , epically having too sit back and watch your sister make some..interesting choices. In her life. From Dating Stefan who was Nice and Kind respectful even. Too Damon who seemed like a complete Asshole. Who is Stefan’s older brother.

Luckily the only other person who was in the dark with you was Aunt Jenna. It gave you some comfort knowing you weren’t the only one. Who was clearly in the dark about your family. Jeremy was rarely ever around and Elena was always coming in Late or not at all. You figured she was going too Stefans place. Aunt Jenna was cool about it. Then the unthinkable happened your Aunt passed away. A wild animal attack. It broke you too pieces.

Having your parent gone, then your guardian your siblings were speechless and sad. When your uncle John arrived he lasted a few days but Elena, and Jeremy kicked him out. Having your History teacher and Aunt Jenna’s boyfriend Aleric being your guardian. That was your Tipping point.

You weren’t a huge fan of Uncle John he was. Okay. But at least he was family. And he was stepping up too care for you three. Elena and Jeremy decided for you that he wasn’t good enough that some guy who Jenna dated for a few months was better then blood? You were furious. Done with the secrets, and them dictating what is best for you. You had a teammate. Between their lies, and secrets and them treating you like a kid! Especially Jeremy treating you like a kid. Being older then him it should be you who was over protective of your baby brother! You were in contract with Uncle John Finished with them. Even the new comers the Mikaelson couldn’t change your mind even those. They were close.

Everyone was curious about them. The Dashing. Well dressed Elijah who looked like a Prince in another life strong chin, big brown eyes. Very formal and polite, Rebecca who was the only girl. Blonde hair that was long and shinny, pail reflection like her brothers. A sight attitude but is the only person in the entire town of Mystic falls who will tell you the truth too your face. And Klaus.

Trouble maker Klaus, who pushed everyone’s buttons in your life, Elena, Jeremy, Even your friends warned you too stay away from them. Even Aleric and Stefan and Damon who you weren’t close with all begged you too Not go near them. Of course them being the ONLY people in the entire town besides your aunt too treat you like A adult. You didn’t listen.

One day. Rebecca invited you over for a sleep over. You gladly accepted, you thought it was a sleepover. But they all sat you down and they told you everything. About vampires, werewolves, witches, hybrids about your family line being full of vampire hunters, too how Aunt Jenna who recently died. Actuallyq died) about the reasonings, about all the secrets they all kept from you.

Having a huge crush on Klaus didn’t stop the fact he killed your Aunt. You went too leave until they informed you about a ancient Threat that made the ‘original vampires scared” you told them too screw themselves and went home.

Getting home you got Thur the front door seeing No one, Like always they were all gone. Typical.

Hearing your phone bing you looked down seeing it was your uncle Jon getting back too your text. Who you now know is your biological father. And that Alerics dead wife is your biological mother. And that your parents adopted you from them..

Uncle Jon:I’m sorry Y/N I would love too have you but I can’t- I think your siblings need you more. I’m sorry I’ll call on the weekend and we can talk about this okay?I’m sorry kiddo

Reading the text you ended up tossing your phone too the sofa as you turned seeing Rebecca at the doorframe.

“Mind if I come in?”

Turning too her you held your arms, “So that myth about having too be invited is fake?”

“No. Unfortunately.”

You rolled your shoulders, “Fine- come in. If you came too suck my blood. It’s probably too biter to be good right now.” She chuckled weakly. “Please I prefer my meals too be male.” She walked in as she spoke, “how are you?”

You shook your head weakly looking around, “Since Jenna. I’m always alone.. I lost basically All my friends because they all kept me in the dark about this stupid town! And the only person I had was Jenna.. and your brother killed her!”

“I’ve seen Klaus kill thousands of people in his lifetime.. Jenna was the Only one that he felt bad about- He knew that she was all you had-what.. what can I do too help.”

You cried stepping over hugging her. She was stunned but hugged back as you cried. She was always strong but Rebecca was soft As you spoke, “uncle Jon wont take me.. I’m stuck in this Hell hole.- Why tell me.. about all the this?”

Becca hold tighter as she spoke, “we don’t want too see you get killed because you were clueless. We all care for you. It’s one of the factors that have bonded us lately.- When Klaus calmed down and realized what he did.. he destroyed the house. It was the first time we ever seen him remorseful.. he’s truly sorry for harming you. It was the last thing he ever wanted.”

Pushing back. You breathed deeply. Looking at your best friend. You rubbed your face collecting your thoughts as you spoke, “It was Elena, and Stefans, and Jeremy – it was their fault too.”

She was surprised hearing that response, “if they told Us about you, all or about Why your so dangerous- about all the he dangers in this town. Maybe! Jenna wouldn’t be dead! I’m Furious at Klaus but I’m More angry at the betrayal of my own blood!”

“come sleep over we can talk this out, and you wont get a truthful answer from your family.”

Nodding your. Head you agreed too that as you went upstairs too pack.

Collecting your phone before you left. You Got too Rebecca mansion too see Klaus having a glass of whiskey you walked over grabbing it from him drinking it all as you spoke, ‘you killed my aunt!” You hit him as he took it.

Hitting him over and over again you cried. As you fell too the ground Klaus never hit back. He stood there taking your punishment until he crashed down. Next too you hugging you. Gripping up too his shirt pulling him closer as you cried into his shoulder.

“I’m so sorry.”

Klaus let you cry your heart felt like it was about too explode, your stomach was so tense you felt like you were about too break. As you bawled. Everyone you loved. Cared for has lied too you.. and it took Jenna’s killer and he’s siblings too tell you the truth.

After crying your phone dinged too see you had a text from Aleric, Elena and Jeremy wondering where you are. You whipped your cheeks as you looked down at them.

“will you kill them?”

That got everyone too tense up, “my family- are you planning too kill anymore of them?”

“No- I need Elena alive,And I swear not too harm Jeremy.” Looking up at Klaus you thanked him and Rebecca took you too her room so you can talk it out.

Weeks passed you weren’t as close with Klaus as you were before. The whole “killing your aunt” really drove a wage between your relationship with him. Which hurt you wanted Klaus around.

You thought you were hanging the trauma and heartbreak of everything. Then Elena turned into a vampire. Of course NO ONE TOLD YOU! You never told your family you knew. Or your friends about all their secrets. It was Klaus who appeared into your room one day. Telling you what happened too Elena. Rebecca ran them over the bridge that your parents died on. Stefan saved Matt and Elena died with Damons blood in her. Turning her into a vampire. You were furious at Rebecca. And Soon Elena started bootcamp too survive being a vampire. Her being turned. Changed your thoughts on Klaus. Then Jeremy Died. you realized. Elena was death.. And she loved being a vampire, but when Jeremy died. She flicked a switch and her humanity’s was gone. Klaus begged you too move in with him for your safety. And you accepted. Elena terrified you. Especially her doppelgänger Katherine who was always around. So you agreed. With the new threat around. Being with murderous honest vampires.. Not so bad compared too your sister.

Before Elena turned her switch she was thriving and back too her bubbly old self before your parents death. She was truly happy. So you forgive Rebecca. It’s been weeks living with them. You just returned from a day of shopping. Rebecca’s suggestion wanting too find the perfect dress for prom. You were exhausted! Stretching out on your bed. Surrounded by bags as Klaus walked by your open door seeing the damage you and Rebecca did on the family money (that Rebecca thankfully offered too pay since your part time job at the grill would pay for one item you got together)

“did you and Rebecca leave anything in the store?” You grinned weakly hearing Klaus’s voice you shook your head. “Barely. Only the mustered color stuff.” He chuckled as you opened your eyes shifting too sit up as he spoke, ‘did you find a dress for the Prom?” You nodded your head weakly. “Yea. Rebecca picked it out.- I’m still unsure.”

Klaus leaned against the doorframe as he spoke, “let me see.”

Getting too your closest pulling out a pink dress, it was a corset top, with a ball gown skirt, every inch was sparkles it reflected softly on the lights in your room as klaus turned around and you realized he wanted you too try it on. You did. Stripping quickly and hopping into it you spoke up, ‘it’s so.. reveling those. I mean it’s slightly low, and my back..”

Klaus turned looking at you as he spoke, “you are a vision. You breathtaking Y/N” smiling weakly you thanked him as he stepped over as he spoke, “you could wear a potato sack and be potato sack and be beautiful.” Feeling your face going red he breathed deeply as he spoke, ‘what unworthy boy is taking you too prom?’

“None- I’m going alone..” that surprised Klaus as he spoke, “really?” You nodded your head, “yea- Matt asked me but that would be too weird.. and with Elena being- bat shit crazy.. and Caroline and Stefan- whatever they are doing and Bonnie.. it’s easier. Less complicated..”

“I’ll take you.”

Smiling hearing that you nodded your head “sure.” He smiled as he went too go as he turned looking at you, “I was going too ask- what are your plans for after graduation? You apply for any schools?”

Shaking your head slightly you spoke, “No- it’s.. I.need a break and too explore.. I’m taking a year off.” With that he walked off.

Prom was perfect. Shortly after Rebecca, Klaus and Elijah were needed in New Orleans and they left you too watch the place. It was only there did you realize they weren’t coming back. It broke your heart. Then graduation came And you were waiting in line too get your diploma, uncle John wasn’t here. Even those you invited him. Elena smashed that idea of having him here. Elena got up and everyone cheered and clapped for her you got up after her getting your diploma when you noticed Klaus in the crowd. He was near the front clapping loudly. With a big smile on his face. You smiled brightly seeing him. Getting off the stage you waited with the rest of your class.

Finishing the ceremony. You leaped off the stage hugging Klaus tightly. “Thank you.” He smiled hugging you back as he spoke, “I couldn’t miss this- Rebecca apologize and Elijah they wanted too come but things in New Orleans are sticky..”

You pushed back holding his face as you smiled brightly. You dreaded today. Having no family with you too celebrate, with Being stuck with Death herself. And your friends who kept you in the dark. You smiled so wide it made Klaus smile back. Looking at you. Seeing this. One kind act make you smile so wide and bright. It made the tough cruel Klaus melt. You were the only person without a motive. He’s meet thousands of people who had motives too kill him or use him. And then their was you. Who just wanted him for himself. It was a different feeling that Klaus wasn’t use too.

You reached up kissing him which surprised Klaus as you pulled back “thank you.”

A huge goofy smile appeared on his face as you dashed over too Elena and hugged her. And your friends. Seeing Klaus changed your mood incredibly. When it was all said and done after Jeremy was brought back too life. (By magic. Which you weren’t sure what happened. He just came back too life) you were sitting on the bleachers with Klaus looking at the football field that held up to be the graduation. Looking out at the field Klaus spoke up, “congratulations Y/N.”

Facing Klaus you smiled brightly reaching over grabbing his arm. “Thanks- and thank you for coming I was dreading this all month-having you here.. felt like I wasn’t alone.”

He smiled weakly as he spoke, “Still going on a grand adventure for a year?”

Nodding your head looking around, “with all the lies and descent and Death around here.the farer away the better.”

“glad too hear that.” Glancing over at Klaus he looked at you shifting too look at you better as he spoke “come with me.”

‘excuse me?”

He chuckled softly rubbing his neck, “Come with me too New Orleans, we all miss you. Especially Me.. Come with me. Let me show you the world. Music , the arts, History music. Let me share it with you.”

You grabbed his hand tightly as you spoke, “Only- if you promise it can be forever.” He squeezed back as he spoke, “you want too turn?”

“Maybe- If I want too.. can you. Be the one?” He nodded his head. You reached over hugging him tightly, “Don’t get your hopes up. On that. But take me with you Klaus. Don’t leave me behind again”

“okay.”

A year passed with learning that Klaus one night booty call got pregnant with. His baby. You and Elijah (who was madly in love with Hailey) you both were on pins and needles wondering how that would play out. You got a Job at a Bar- Mystic Falls was a training area for the big league for Vampires and werewolves and witches. A turf war was going on. The Mikaelson convinced each group that you weren’t involved. That you weren’t some Ploy you were human. So they mostly left you alone.

Klaus has been acting weird lately. You seen the good , the bad, and Now your seeing the awkward. You enter a room and he excuses himself, he spends. Little times around you. Rebecca said you were imagine it. But Elijah noticed and often talked too Klaus about it.

Hope was fussing so you were soothing her as she went back too sleep.

“You’re a natural.”

Turning too Klaus seeing him leaning against the door . You smiled as he walked over helping you put her down .

“do you want this…”

That surprised you. Turning too Klaus you shook your head. “I love Hope- but IM not.. Anywhere Close too being ready for a baby.. I don’t know if I want it. Why?”

“you asked too be changed.” “Maybe.” Correcting him he nodded his head. “If your changed.. you can’t have this..”

“ you impregnate a werewolf… Never say never.”

Klaus frowned hearing that as he spoke, “you know that was a fluke.”

Nodding your head weakly you turned too Klaus rolling your shoulders, “IM not thinking about having babies. Hell- I haven’t had a serious relationship… I’m far too young.-“ he nodded his head looking at Hope.

“is that why you been involving me lately? Your scared I want a baby. And too stay human?”

“I’m Not good..”

“I’ve seen you with Hope- your Goodness is there. Klaus- You shown it with me. From the beginning. You’re the kindest. Person I know. You tell me the truth even if it’s not Kind. But you know how much I appreciate the truth. That’s showing me kindness. Hope is so lucky too have you. I’m so happy too have you.”

“I want more.”

That surprised you as he rubbed his face, “I love you. Always have. Always will.. I want too be selfish and bite you and keep you..”

Nodding your head. You reached over grabbing his hand. “I love you too…I .. I’m not ready too give up my human status.. you okay with that?”

He nodded his head stepping over kissing you. You smiled kissing him back.

You knew eventually too keep. Klaus , Rebecca, Elijah you would have too change. But for Right now. You were happy.

[utapribr]

I never played the games and I saw yesterday that Otoya's father is actually Shining (yeah I'm very late in the news), I'm shocked lmao do you know if the games have other important info the anime didn't show?

Oh my, where do I even start… Tbh, the anime is the tip of the iceberg of what Utapri has to offer, plot-wise. Really, the games have lots of content and potential even if Broccol doesn’t explore it but lol what can we do. I highly suggest you to look up some reviews of the game routes so that you can get the most of it, details etc, it’s really interesting. Overall, I’ll just throw the basics under the Read More ^^

Otoya - One of the charas with the most complicated story arc that Broccoli forgets to bring up even though everyone is interested in. His mom (Kotomi) is a composer, just like Haruka, and she used to be Shining’s partner (music and love-wise), but when he had to choose over career or love, he chose career and left her. He didn’t know that she was pregnant though, so she had a son (Otoya) on her own. She suffered a plane crash though, and everyone assumed she was dead. He was raised by his aunt until she died and he went on an orphanage. In the games, he lowkey knows that Shining is his dad, but he doesn’t talk to him about it (I wouldn’t either lol tbh Shining is an ass for knowing that Otoya is his son later and still leaving him on an orphanage when he could be raising the boy but ok).

Cecil - Yeah, so you know the thing about the plane crash and everyone assuming Kotomi was dead? Well, turns out she wasn’t! She actually ended up in Agnapolis, but suffered amnesia and forgot everything. The king and her eventually fell in love with each other and then they had Cecil (yes, he’s Otoya’s half bro). However, ppl in the island were xenophobic af and hated japanese people, so Kotomi went back to Japan to avoid those weirdos who wanted her away (or dead), but Cesshi stayed bc he’s the heir after all. But his uncles or smth didn’t consider him a true heir bc he’s half-japanese, so they turned him into a cat with a magic spell and sent him back to Japan :/ There he met Haruka and her songs brought him back to human form again :) which means he’s still the heir lol @ his relatives try harder.

Masa - basically his mom was weak on health when he was younger, and he had to take care of everything, including his little sister Mai (she’s cute and he makes stuffed animals to her from time to time as gifts even after becoming an idol). His dad is a bitch on the games OK. That servant that appeared, Jii - everyone who played the games hates him. To represent my feelings on him while playing Repeat, I made this little art piece hope u appreciate:

In the anime Mai pretty much disappeared, but in the games she’s still there, so she’s the reason why Masa is still avoiding his dad and the duty of becoming the heir, because he knows he can’t get disowned, since his sister will be the next in the line and forced to do things bc of that. He loves her a lot, so this is why he doesn’t do it.

Natsuki - If I remember well, he was raised in France until he was 5?? My memory on this is kinda bad. His parents have a farm and this explains why he loves animals so much. His arc was Satsuki, and once he disappeared, everything became a filler (which is very sad, he’s such a good chara;;). Also he and Syo didn’t know each other when they were kids.

Tokiya - Ok so I know many Tokiya stans are super hardcore and know every little thing about him, so if I mess up I’m really sorry ;_; my memory isnt that good ok, but I’ll try my best. Tokiya’s dad never liked the idea of him becoming an idol, and when he decided to continue to go after his dream, his dad left him and his mom. He and Shining knew each other before bc they worked together on something that I forgot rn, while he was HAYATO. Shining noticed that he felt very unhappy and offered him help (and a chocolate cake, which was cute). Tokiya denied until he broke down and admitted that his life was shit, so Shining helped him.

Ren - Tbh his story isn’t much different from the anime and what it said. He’s the 3rd son, feels useless, he and Masa knew each other since they were kids, etc. Oh, and he doesn’t like chocolates. Since he was born on Valentine’s Day, everyone offered him chocolate to the point that he couldn’t stand it anymore, because he felt that he had to eat every chocolate that ppl offered in gratitude lol. He does like bitter chocolate though.

Syo - @ anime when will you quit playing games with us and BRING KAORU TO THE ANIME BYE. Ok so he has a twin brother (mentioned in the anime). What the anime doesn’t mention is that he has a heart condition, and if he gets too excited and stuff, his heart starts to freak out. Doctors didn’t even expect him to survive past 10yo or something. He hated himself for being so weak and short, but seeing Ryuuya on TV motivated him. He started learning how to fight and decided to become an idol to get closer to him. He survived past doctors’ expectations, despite of the odds. Kaoru studies medicine bc he wants to be a doctor and help Syo, and people in the same condition. Kaoru also feels kinda guilty for being healthier and taller despite being the youngest twin. Their father is a stylist in Shining’s Agency, and their mother is an orchestra conductor if I’m not mistaken. His heart condition was healed in Utapri Repeat through a surgery.

Reiji - has sister and mom, and they own a restaurant. Studied at Shining Academy like the members above ^^^. While he was there, he met Aine and 2 other guys, and they became friends. Reiji debuted with one of the friends as his composer, and Aine debuted with the other. They both became idols, but Aine fell in depression over the idol life, feeling lonely and empty, to the point where he tried to commit suicide. His last call was directed to Reiji, but he was busy working and didn’t answer. Aine was never seen again and assumed dead, so Reiji blames himself to this day. Their other 2 friends also blame him. He may look happy and all, but it’s pretty much a facade and he feels bad about it to this day.

Ranmaru - He used to be part of the Rich Kids Club™ with Ren and Masa, but his dad was betrayed and his family became bankrupt. His dad died because of stress, but Ranmaru assumed the debts in his place and worked his ass off to pay it. Since most of the bands he was in disbanded bc of girls, he’s kinda bitchy with females at first. Really likes cats. His hair is dyed and he uses a contact lenses to make one of his eyes to seem purple. 

Ai - Hey, do you remember that Aine story? Turns out Aine didn’t die either! (never trust deaths in Utapri) He was saved from drowning by his uncle, but he got in coma. His uncle, a doctor/scientist, discovered that he refused to wake up because he was scared of the world and scared of feelings/love. His uncle then creates an android (Ai or A.I.) and connected their emotions. This way, Ai could discover more about the world and feelings, and show Aine that the world wasn’t that bad. Their voices and appearance are the same (poor Reiji), but they’re completely different people. Through music, Ai managed to wake up Aine, but freaked out later that he wouldn’t be useful anymore. The uncle/doctor reassured him that he was important and never meant as a replacement. So basically Aine is alive in Ai’s route, but not in Reiji’s route, and we may never even see him bc Broccoli is the best and wasting potential.

Camus - a count just like he loves to say. Serves the Silk Queen and really cares for her. Didn’t really have a childhood bc of training day and night to serve the queen, and his own family is full of his enemies, one trying to take down the other. His horse can be turned into a dog as well (named Alexander). He was sent to spy on Shining and to see if he could find some way to get magic and boost his queen’s magic bc it was almost gone. Cesshi almost married the queen bc.. Well, the queen needed magic and he had the muses, plus those bitches on Agnapolis wanted Cesshi away, so they arranged a marriage, but since Camus managed to get some magic (Haruka’s songs wow), it didn’t happen. He knows about Ranmaru’s past btw, and knows about the whole Shining-Kotomi thing (Silk Quen knows about it too).

THIS ACTUALLY BECAME LONGER THAN EXPECTED OMG IM SORRY but really this is still not everything and there’s a lot more to explore from Utapri and the games/Drama CDs. Hope this helps you anyway!

RebelVampire

Good day everyone~! This week’s Comic Tea Party is now officially beginning. Today we are discussing Soul Hymn by Draco Plato~! (http://khyatix.com/soulhymn.shtml) For those new to CTP, discussions about the comic are freeform, so please feel free to bring up whatever you wish. However, every 30 minutes I will be dropping in a discussion question to help those who would like a prompt. These questions are totally OPTIONAL to answer so pay them no mind if you wish~! Remember, constructive criticism is allowed, but the primary focus here is to have fun and appreciate the amazing comics that the community makes~! Each chat a top comment will be picked and featured on an ad for this chat, so let’s have a great discussion~! With that said, let us begin with this first question~!

QUESTION 1. What is your favorite scene in the comic so far and why?

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

i think mine would be when eirk is hanging out with his bro and niece(edited)

AngelicEmpyress of Chromacity

One of my favorite scenes was when celeste (i think) first blows Erik's cover about being a goat XD

Kabocha

My favorite scene was when Erik and Arrow started getting acquainted in class. >w< It was really adorable! ...Also Celeste getting paranoid was humorous in its own way. ...Although justified.

AngelicEmpyress of Chromacity

that was really adorable

DracoPlato

Yis~! My favorite scene is the same as Delta's haha

Mharz of Angels & Punchy Ladies

I read it yesterday for once

XD

RebelVampire

i enjoyed celeste getting paranoid considering she was all critical of erik just revealing himself to her earlier

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

it was so cute

Mharz of Angels & Punchy Ladies

I read it in 30 miins

AngelicEmpyress of Chromacity

wanted to throw popcorn at celeste

DracoPlato

LOL

Kabocha

@RebelVampire I know right?

DracoPlato

it is a fast read, i think it takes me ten minutes to read it all

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

also, i didn't catch it when reading it before but arrow is gay as hell for erik(edited)

Kabocha

but on the other hand, you can get why she was a little freaked out. What if Erik wasn't really Erik or something

AngelicEmpyress of Chromacity

lol

DEITY CALI OF BISHIE WISHIES

i noticed arrow is gay as hell for erik

DracoPlato

arrow totally gay as hell for erik, lol

Mharz of Angels & Punchy Ladies

LOL

yeah

DEITY CALI OF BISHIE WISHIES

arrow and erik sittin in a tree /shot

Mharz of Angels & Punchy Ladies

love at first sight

Kabocha

Well, at least he's not being lewd about it.

Mharz of Angels & Punchy Ladies

unlike his previous life

AngelicEmpyress of Chromacity

yus!

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

then celeste comes along, and its gets a little wierd

AngelicEmpyress of Chromacity

i appreciate that bit

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

cuase draco did say erik marries twins

DracoPlato

arrow isn't really lewd though as a character

mathtans

I made it. ^.^

Mharz of Angels & Punchy Ladies

LOL

AngelicEmpyress of Chromacity

aw man i missed spoilers again

maths!

Mharz of Angels & Punchy Ladies

they're teens... you'll never know

DracoPlato

people gonna be dropping all the spoilers here, lol

AngelicEmpyress of Chromacity

lol

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

well considering you can easily get most info from draco about the comic, it was easy to learn that

mathtans

Fave scene would be when Erik's cell phone went off in class. Because 1) speaking as a teacher, teacher reaction worked; 2) I immediately knew she was calling him to check his identity; 3) When he was just "huh, don't know the number" I literally facepalmed. It was great.

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

hell draco just blurted that out(edited)

Kabocha

this particular chat should be marked as "spoilers all day all the time"

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

oh yeah

DracoPlato

haha i'm really loose with spoilers

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

you are

DracoPlato

i like that scene too maths!

RebelVampire

in retrospect, i wonder how many numbers erik would actually recognize

cause i doubt erik has friends

mathtans

Spoilers for what now?

DracoPlato

Erik has no friends, that's true

mathtans

Rebel: Erik has family. ^.^

AngelicEmpyress of Chromacity

makes note to talk to loose draco more often XD

DracoPlato

he does have a large family!

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

at least 6 siblings

Kabocha

oh man

Mharz of Angels & Punchy Ladies

yus

Kabocha

how does one handle that many siblings

DracoPlato

i'm always forgetting the number of siblings he has tbh

RebelVampire

im sure his fam must know hes in class. maybe. unless they are like "nah its fine erik doesnt need to learn."

AngelicEmpyress of Chromacity

would give Erik all the hugs

Mharz of Angels & Punchy Ladies

I like it when Erik showed a family photo and Arrow is like "why are all of you goats?"

AngelicEmpyress of Chromacity

LOL

DracoPlato

erik's parents would call him during class XD they don't care much about school

mathtans

Heh, that was amusing. Fun with cosplay.

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

wow eriks parents, great job

Mharz of Angels & Punchy Ladies

the family that cosplays together, stays together

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

...

DracoPlato

for sure XD but they probably don't really cosplay, lol

mathtans

So, there must be glamour magic already to hide the goat thing, on top of the alien magic, yeah? Wonder if it all comes from the same source somehow.

RebelVampire

i laughed at the fact arrow just accepted that oh yeah, they put on plays. very normal sure.

DracoPlato

the magic to make him human is different than the one he uses to transform

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

not sure it alien magic, maybe its just magic

mathtans

So there's flavours of magic....

Mharz of Angels & Punchy Ladies

well you know...

maybe it's family tradition

DracoPlato

well, for magic in general all magic has the same logic behind it

AngelicEmpyress of Chromacity

i think the powers were given to them by angels...they just think they were aliens

DracoPlato

but the magic to make him human isn't from the three space people at least

mathtans

AW - Both begin with A.

Kabocha

So, if the magic came from Angels

AngelicEmpyress of Chromacity

lol

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

those space people are wierd

Kabocha

is silver involved somehow

DracoPlato

LOL

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

one of them just took control of erik with no warning, dick move

DracoPlato

the three space people are more like gods than angels though

Mharz of Angels & Punchy Ladies

LOL

Kabocha

XD

Are they -spoilers-

DracoPlato

was it a dick move tho?

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

well gods are dicks then

AngelicEmpyress of Chromacity

oooo

Kabocha

lol

but seriously, are those space people their future incarnations or what

mathtans

One wonders why Celeste was chosen but not her brother? If gender stereotyping isn't a thing?

DracoPlato

Arrow has a different role is all

mathtans

He doesn't look as good in a skirt?

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

to be gay for erik, thats his role

AngelicEmpyress of Chromacity

-snort-

DracoPlato

maybe he's just even more special

Mharz of Angels & Punchy Ladies

yeah

DracoPlato

100% not a gender thing tho

RebelVampire

nah they just dont like ppl with glasses

Mharz of Angels & Punchy Ladies

the world may never know

in 10 years

DracoPlato

the hint to arrow's role is that he and Hope have the same bubble color

Mharz of Angels & Punchy Ladies

yis

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

OH GOD REALLY

mathtans

Oooh, I wasn't paying close attention to the bubbles. Well, aside from the beginning, to figure out the flashback.

Mharz of Angels & Punchy Ladies

same as this other guy

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

wow arrow was made to be gay for erik

AngelicEmpyress of Chromacity

the bubble color back history keeps me eternally confused XD

DracoPlato

hahaha, but it's so spoilery

the bubble colors

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

the bubbles betray so much

AngelicEmpyress of Chromacity

yeah...trying to put it with the nifty patreon excusive thingo >.>

Kabocha

o_o

DracoPlato

Oh! The life chart

AngelicEmpyress of Chromacity

oh i loved when Erik got possessed by vijaya

and yus

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

dick move

DracoPlato

Ooooooh I like that too, that's probably my fave actually

mathtans

Wait, when was that?

DracoPlato

i was really excited to draw his eyes like that

AngelicEmpyress of Chromacity

and the whole conversation that led up to it

mathtans

(I read this over the weekend... memory fail...)

AngelicEmpyress of Chromacity

very inpiring in a way

DracoPlato

http://khyatix.com/soulhymn/issues/issue15/iss15pg2.shtml

was that page

Mharz of Angels & Punchy Ladies

you can re read it again

AngelicEmpyress of Chromacity

inspiring even

Mharz of Angels & Punchy Ladies

it's pretty short

mathtans

Oh, riiiight.

Mharz of Angels & Punchy Ladies

took me 30mins

so proud

AngelicEmpyress of Chromacity

we can tell lol

DracoPlato

it is a pretty fast read, haha needs more pages

mathtans

All in good time.

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

well its 4-5 pages a month

AngelicEmpyress of Chromacity

still loves hopes design

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

...wait thats the normal rate of most comic creators

RebelVampire

i like how hope's response to vijaya possessing erik and watching them was basically of course he's watching them

DracoPlato

yis, basically a page a week

I think Hope felt relieved by it

Mharz of Angels & Punchy Ladies

stalker LOL

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

just what hell did decebal do to hope

AngelicEmpyress of Chromacity

i think so too

Mharz of Angels & Punchy Ladies

jk

magic

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

bad magic

Mharz of Angels & Punchy Ladies

just like everything else

RebelVampire

decebal invited him to join his punk rock band the pillars

DracoPlato

cause even Hope had some doubt but he knew he had the right person then

DracoPlato

decebal not even in the band, tch

AngelicEmpyress of Chromacity

yeah hope was very unimpressed with their fighting skills XD

RebelVampire

no hes the band manager

well erik did almost get choked to death

DEITY CALI OF BISHIE WISHIES

decebel sure is a creeper when he popped up during mickeal's phoning someone

Mharz of Angels & Punchy Ladies

all you need is training that is all(edited)

RebelVampire

i would not be very impressed by that

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

yeah that was odd

why didn't the little girl say anything about him being there

DracoPlato

they couldn't see Decebal

not even Erik could see him

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

oh

ok

Mharz of Angels & Punchy Ladies

yeah that's what I thought

RebelVampire

decebal is a ghosty ghost

AngelicEmpyress of Chromacity

lol

DracoPlato

yis, he was in an astral body

but it's hard to tell

AngelicEmpyress of Chromacity

i like his design too

RebelVampire

plot twist: decebal just lives with them so its not strange to see him

AngelicEmpyress of Chromacity

likes lots of draco's character designs XDDDD

DracoPlato

:"D

AngelicEmpyress of Chromacity

lol rebel

mathtans

I like twins... I'm a sucker for that after I've used them myself...

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

it was hard to tell

Mharz of Angels & Punchy Ladies

isn't decibal an angel

that makes sense

DracoPlato

I really like that they're twins too! There's a lot of humor behind that

maybe just to me as the creator tho

Kabocha

on another note, Mickeal pretty much seems to have a recurring thing of not actually wanting to manage full custody of his kids in any life, does he XD

mathtans

They know each other well though. You got that across when they were introduced.

DracoPlato

:"D!!

Kabocha

at least this time he's far away from Arrow.

Mharz of Angels & Punchy Ladies

LMAO

DracoPlato

and lol! In Decebal's defense it's not that he doesn't want full custody he just travels a lot so it's hard

I mean Mickeal's

pffffft

AngelicEmpyress of Chromacity

i was about to say

THAT was a big spoiler XDDD

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

HA

DracoPlato

what even brain

Mharz of Angels & Punchy Ladies

well travelling is tiring

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

bubbles

bubbles riun things

Mharz of Angels & Punchy Ladies

I pretty sure draco just want to spill everythang

AngelicEmpyress of Chromacity

lol

Kabocha

Draco, it's okay

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

if you look deep enough you can learn a lot though the bubbles alone

mathtans

I don't always notice the bubbles.

Kabocha

any spoilers you wanna leak, I'm cool with

DracoPlato

I was like I'm gonna be good and not spoil things today

AngelicEmpyress of Chromacity

and then the chat began

XD

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

draco your the loosest jar of spoilers

its a matter of time

Mharz of Angels & Punchy Ladies

DracoPlato

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

DracoPlato

Kabocha

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

DracoPlato

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

Kabocha

ahahahahah

DracoPlato

yus, depression can eating

mathtans

So is Erik related to Mr. Tumnus from "Lion, Witch and Wardrobe"?

DracoPlato

LOL

DracoPlato

not in canon XD

but I do love Mr. Tumnus

mathtans

Heh.

Mharz of Angels & Punchy Ladies

I'm still looking forward to the day he eats cans

mathtans

Erik, doing the can-can.

DracoPlato

lol, need to make it a wallpaper XD

can-can, shoving multiple cans in his mouth

Kabocha

that was baaaaaaad

mathtans

It's different from Tin-Tin, that's french.

AngelicEmpyress of Chromacity

lol

DracoPlato

I don't know if he'll eat cans in arc 1 though

Mharz of Angels & Punchy Ladies

LMAO

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

can he scale a mountain like a goat

mathtans

If he has tracing paper and a ruler?

DracoPlato

He probably could but I don't think Erik is that athletic

lol!

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

well he can fly anyway

DracoPlato

which is funny cause Erik's character was originally very athletic as his main trait before I made him a Damon life

but now he's not really that athletic

Kabocha

Oh wellll

mathtans

I figure hooves make that trickier.

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

just being a damon life makes you more of a shlub

DracoPlato

Yeah, and then on feet he's not used to regular feet that well

Mharz of Angels & Punchy Ladies

who needs to be athletic when you can fly

DracoPlato

damon himself is very athletic tho, haha

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

actuly mat goats a suprinlgy good at scaling mountains

AngelicEmpyress of Chromacity

lol aww

Erik trips often as a human XD

mathtans

He should stay away from the drugs.

DracoPlato

This is actually Erik's first time as a human

cause he's never had much of a need of it before

DracoPlato

since he grew up and lived mostly in the country

Mharz of Angels & Punchy Ladies

wow

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

goat magic(edited)

DracoPlato

yeah, goats are awesome climbers!

Kabocha

Wait, he was literally a goat

DracoPlato

so good luck with that erik

Kabocha

I had figured he was a satyr or something. XD

DEITY CALI OF BISHIE WISHIES

imagines erik just walking along the side of a cliff

DracoPlato

he's a faun

haha

Kabocha

ahhh

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

draco draw that

mathtans

Can Erik take on the form of things other than human? Like, could he appear as an elf?

Mharz of Angels & Punchy Ladies

I imagine erik doing the spiderman on the mountains

mathtans

"Why do you have pointed ears today" "Just variety."

RebelVampire

QUESTION 2. Early on in the comic, there is an ominous scene depicting Decebal watching Erik’s brother, Mickeal. What interest would Decebal have in Mickeal? Will Mickeal be used against Erik somehow or is something bigger going on?

Mharz of Angels & Punchy Ladies

YES

DracoPlato

With what he's using right now he couldn't, it's something the fauns use that have a spell already in it that makes them human. But it wears off cause it charges by the sun and he hasn't used it long enough for it to have a good charge

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

SAME COLOR SPEECH BUBBLE

mathtans

Draco: Ahhh, cool. Explains why he had problems in the subway.

AngelicEmpyress of Chromacity

You just KNOW the two have history

Kabocha

Decebal doing bad things with Mickeal? Say it ain't so

Mharz of Angels & Punchy Ladies

he's intigating mickeal to do his intentions

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

does everyone here know about the coloed speech bubbles

DracoPlato

I mentioned it earlier, haha

mathtans

Wait, there's speech bubbles?

Kabocha

Is he gonna start doing the same thing as Rex, @Mharz of Angels & Punchy Ladies

DracoPlato

Hahaha, Rex is mentioned in Soul Hymn

Mharz of Angels & Punchy Ladies

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

yes mat, the speech bubbles

DracoPlato

Decebal knows about Rex

mathtans

I be silly. ^.^

Maybe Mickeal's also magical?

DracoPlato

Mmmm Mickeal is important but not magical

beyond being a faun

Mharz of Angels & Punchy Ladies

you'll never know

DracoPlato

well I mean the fauns are magical in the sense they can captivate people with singing

AngelicEmpyress of Chromacity

maths doesn't know what the same colored speech bubbles mean x3

DEITY CALI OF BISHIE WISHIES

i predict decebel's gonna make mickeal join the dark side

mathtans

Oh, what was with the small animal...

DracoPlato

Naples is Erik's pet from home

mathtans

AE: I do, I just choose to be silly.

RebelVampire

mickeal is important cause he provides the roof over erik's head. granted if erik didnt have a house then arrow could be like "STAY WITH MEEEEEEEEE"

AngelicEmpyress of Chromacity

oh

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

just checked, mic and decebal have the same color bubble, I WAS RIGHT

DracoPlato

yus, they have the same speech bubble color, haha

mathtans

Right, maybe Naples is related?

Mharz of Angels & Punchy Ladies

maybe mickeal's voice is hypnotic

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

can that soul stop fucking with life, jesus

DracoPlato

Nah Naples really is all that he seems, a talking flying squirrel

DEITY CALI OF BISHIE WISHIES

hope and arrow have the same color too

Mharz of Angels & Punchy Ladies

so decebal wants to use mickeal to influence ppl

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

they do

DEITY CALI OF BISHIE WISHIES

is hope gay as hell for erik

DracoPlato

hope less gay for erik, lol

mathtans

"Here, sing this."

Kabocha

ahahahaha

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

or does hope have is own damon life

RebelVampire

see i was right then, decebal is a band manager and picked mickeal to be lead singer

mathtans

Hopeless gay?

DracoPlato

oh noooo XD

lol omg

DEITY CALI OF BISHIE WISHIES

"sing this totally not world ruining anthem for your fans ok cool"

Mharz of Angels & Punchy Ladies

yis

DracoPlato

the power of music to corrupt the world

Mharz of Angels & Punchy Ladies

he may not be magical but his voice is powerful

mathtans

"I don't know why it's in a minor key, just sing it."

DracoPlato

they say music is the highest art because it can stir the emotion in humans and bring them to action

RebelVampire

need a pic of decebal in sunglasses drinking starbucks

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

oh god

Mharz of Angels & Punchy Ladies

LOL

DEITY CALI OF BISHIE WISHIES

and then erik would have to learn guitar and singing so they can have a magical singing battle

DracoPlato

omg that'd be amazing XD

mathtans

"He hit me with a rest!"

DracoPlato

original erik played guitar

hahah

until i revamped him

Mharz of Angels & Punchy Ladies

that is actually what soul HYMN is about

Kabocha

oh wow

Mharz of Angels & Punchy Ladies

Kabocha

original erik is kinda hot

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

wow hope looks so suprised there

Mharz of Angels & Punchy Ladies

Kabocha

UM, WHOOPS I MEAN

DracoPlato

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

Kabocha

He's a bit of a bishie. Yep.

DracoPlato

damon did too!! everyone gets darker skin, lol

AngelicEmpyress of Chromacity

wow to that original erik

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

well people draw what they want sometimes and draco loves bishies

mathtans

If Hope got darker skin, what was it like before...

DracoPlato

Oh Hope still has light skin

Kabocha

DracoPlato

Kabocha

AngelicEmpyress of Chromacity

OMG

Kabocha

AngelicEmpyress of Chromacity

Draco!!! that's ....im stunned!

mathtans

Humm. So it was like that before Erik?

DracoPlato

yeah erik was a really recent change

but the story always struggled to come together until I made that change

like I had parts of a story but could never tie it all together

AngelicEmpyress of Chromacity

awww

mathtans

Needed more magical boys/girls, I guess.

AngelicEmpyress of Chromacity

it bes that way sometimes

DracoPlato

weeeeeeeeell I did the magical girl boy thing cause I thought that'd appeal more to people

mathtans

Nothing wrong with that if it fits.

DracoPlato

little chibi arrow

DEITY CALI OF BISHIE WISHIES

so cute

and cranky

AngelicEmpyress of Chromacity

daw

DracoPlato

i had to make his bangs less like the majority of my other characters, lol

Kabocha

DracoPlato

AngelicEmpyress of Chromacity

SPARKLES

DracoPlato

Kabocha

Draco used Stunning Artwork! It's super effective! Chat is confused!

AngelicEmpyress of Chromacity

DracoPlato

DEITY CALI OF BISHIE WISHIES

black and whiteeeeeeeeee

RebelVampire

my how the tables have turned. as arrow flirts and hits on erik so fast

DEITY CALI OF BISHIE WISHIES

LOL

arrow got influenced

mathtans

He made dolls?

DracoPlato

hahah i feel bad a lot of arrow's robotic stuff was sidelined

mathtans

He's still good with computers.

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

i leave for 5 minutes, the fuck did i come back too

Mharz of Angels & Punchy Ladies

LOL

DracoPlato

Yeah Arrow will still make robots too

but that'll be explored in arc 2

AngelicEmpyress of Chromacity

wow

DEITY CALI OF BISHIE WISHIES

Kabocha

oh dear

Arrow seems a little guilty about it(edited)

Mharz of Angels & Punchy Ladies

where are all this old files

O_O

I must see them

DEITY CALI OF BISHIE WISHIES

LOL

mathtans

He could make a playmate for Celeste.

DracoPlato

Mharz of Angels & Punchy Ladies

rip

DracoPlato

LOL

Kabocha

(release it on gumroad or something)

do it

DracoPlato

I don't think Celeste wants a playmate

Mharz of Angels & Punchy Ladies

hacks draco's hard drive

mathtans

Pity.

AngelicEmpyress of Chromacity

0.0

DEITY CALI OF BISHIE WISHIES

suddenly omake where celeste gets a boy robot as a present

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

or does she

DracoPlato

Nah Celeste isn't interested in dating or boys or sex

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

plot twist the robot is erik

DracoPlato

looooool

mathtans

She likes girls! Knew it all along.

DracoPlato

nah celeste isn't interested in girls either

mathtans

Robots?

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

really draco, cuase she seemed kinda like a flirt when erik met her

Mharz of Angels & Punchy Ladies

would be fun if it's like that

I mean celeste liking girls

DracoPlato

well she is a flirt

DEITY CALI OF BISHIE WISHIES

mharz wants the yuris

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

mharz wants all the yuris(edited)

DracoPlato

celeste does like girls more than boys probably, lol

mathtans

Mharz: Would fit with her brother liking boys, amirite?

RebelVampire

celeste is only interested in becoming the pencil poking champ.

DracoPlato

yus

Mharz of Angels & Punchy Ladies

LOL

yus

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

well its humble

DracoPlato

she does flirt a lot though, haha

cause she has a flirty line coming up later too

mathtans

She wants to get to know more magical people.

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

in magical ways

mathtans

For her own ends.

Or for that.

RebelVampire

celeste just wants to steal their power

become magical girl queen of the world

DracoPlato

she'd like that actually XD

mathtans

Celeste has ego.

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

the fuck celeste

Mharz of Angels & Punchy Ladies

LOL

DracoPlato

hahah she is a little sinister at her core

loooooool

Mharz of Angels & Punchy Ladies

figures

XD

DracoPlato

arrow trying to sleep she comes in and pencil pokes him

Mharz of Angels & Punchy Ladies

pencil poking queen

mathtans

"Not in the ear!"

DEITY CALI OF BISHIE WISHIES

"eyes closed celeste what are you poking me with now" "erik's dick "

Mharz of Angels & Punchy Ladies

LOL

DracoPlato

his dick is bigger than that XD

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

oh my

Mharz of Angels & Punchy Ladies

rip

mathtans

I hope it's still attached to him. O.o

DracoPlato

for reals

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

either way thats a wierd secene

Kabocha

oh dear

um.

RebelVampire

the lewdness slowly escalates

Kabocha

yep

Who let lyall out

Mharz of Angels & Punchy Ladies

arrow

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

the inner lyalls come out to play

DracoPlato

t-this story isn't even the lewd one

DEITY CALI OF BISHIE WISHIES

https://giphy.com/gifs/editingandlayout-anchorman-that-escalated-quickly-ToMjGpjpXMFPshSYGLm

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

the best kind of escalation

DracoPlato

fffft

Mharz of Angels & Punchy Ladies

always the lyall

DracoPlato

would say this is the least lewd of all my stories

DEITY CALI OF BISHIE WISHIES

least lewd; more likely to get lewded

Kabocha

http://www.reactiongifs.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/11/reverse.gif

mathtans

So the dolls won't be making a come back then.

DracoPlato

They will!

arrow is still into robotics

RebelVampire

but will they be sex bots

mathtans

Ohhhh.

Mharz of Angels & Punchy Ladies

lewd robots(edited)

DracoPlato

but it's not the main focus atm, but it will be later on

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

maybe for enough money they will

DracoPlato

Arrow didn't want to make sex bots, but that's eventually what it became due to his backers

mathtans

Can robots be imbued with magic?

Mharz of Angels & Punchy Ladies

made a robot and named it Lyall v1

RebelVampire

well somebody does have to pay for erik's cans

AngelicEmpyress of Chromacity

i love robotics

DracoPlato

they can be, but magic is separate from the robotics

Kabocha

compared to your other stories, how long is Soul Hymn meant to be?

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

and arrows booze

DracoPlato

Soul Hymn is shorter than Zenchav but longer than Witch Carnival

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

why call it soul hymn

DracoPlato

Cali helped me name it~!

AngelicEmpyress of Chromacity

its a middle child XD

mathtans

Arrow makes a robotic Erik so that he can be seen alongside his magical self, thereby proving they are different people.

Mharz of Angels & Punchy Ladies

because they will be singing

it is a battle of songs

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

ok, that explians a lot

DracoPlato

Because it's a story about their soul connections and there's music as one of the central themes as well as religion

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

ERIK IS MAGIC BATMAN

DracoPlato

omg XD

AngelicEmpyress of Chromacity

perfect name

DracoPlato

yus, I really like the title, Cali helped me get a good one~!

It used to be called Revelation

AngelicEmpyress of Chromacity

i almost name my 3rd arc that XD

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

wow, thats as biblical as freds last name(edited)

DracoPlato

yeah, I wanted to change it cause it's pretty common

AngelicEmpyress of Chromacity

since the first two are genesis and exodus XD

RebelVampire

QUESTION 3. Celeste and Erik both mention they received their powers from “three space people.” Why do you think these three space people are interfering when nobody else is? Did they choose wisely or will Erik and Celeste be defeated given their inexperience? Why is Hope insisting Arrow come along when he didn’t talk to the three space people?

DEITY CALI OF BISHIE WISHIES

i went through the thesaurus a lot to help with the name looooooooooool

Mharz of Angels & Punchy Ladies

it's not vijaya?

DracoPlato

They chose badly, much badly, story full of fail

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

i feel like celestse souls ends up as a space person and that why shes chosen

RebelVampire

it is but i write these questions with the idea ppl arent going to rain spoilers down XD

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

same for erik

DEITY CALI OF BISHIE WISHIES

MAYBE ARROW WILL BE CONTACTED BY THE SPACE PEOPLE

Mharz of Angels & Punchy Ladies

rip

DracoPlato

put on your space cap arrow

AngelicEmpyress of Chromacity

well draco said they are more like gods...so that debunks my entire thought process XD

mathtans

Erik, Celeste and Arrow ARE the three space people. It's time travel, they give themselves their own powers, but Arrow was all "no, I got robots, I'm good".

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

its like a normal cap...but in space

DracoPlato

if you've read OoO you'll know tho

DEITY CALI OF BISHIE WISHIES

imagines arrow building a mecha suit for himself to help with fighting

DracoPlato

lololol

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

MECHA

DracoPlato

lol! well he could

but he can't afford the parts atm

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

I WILL DRAW THIS

DracoPlato

omg XD

DEITY CALI OF BISHIE WISHIES

omg

DracoPlato

that's also why Arrow isn't currently doing the robotics is he can't afford the parts, so he's only been working on the AI software atm

AngelicEmpyress of Chromacity

OoO is the only one i haven't read >.>

mathtans

Maybe Erik and Celeste should train by fighting each other.

DracoPlato

that'd be a good idea!

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

ooh that be cool(edited)

DEITY CALI OF BISHIE WISHIES

cue Be A Man playing in the bg

mathtans

"Not the hair!" "Not the horns!"

DracoPlato

celeste can out man erik any day

RebelVampire

poor arrow not invited to train

AngelicEmpyress of Chromacity

or hope gets so disgusted he trains them himself XDDD

Mharz of Angels & Punchy Ladies

I read OoO earlier in the week

DracoPlato

hope like why do you suck so much

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

well erik is the ultimate house wife

Mharz of Angels & Punchy Ladies

LOL

DracoPlato

Erik is the ultimate housewife, haha

AngelicEmpyress of Chromacity

lol draco

DEITY CALI OF BISHIE WISHIES

ERIK USE HOUSEWIFE POWERS

RebelVampire

im suddenly sad that erik's attacks arent like...house cleaning refs

DracoPlato

I shall cook you a meal and clean your clothes and then you will be a clean and happy demon

DEITY CALI OF BISHIE WISHIES

should transform his staff into a broom

DracoPlato

man i wish i'd done that now

if i make a parody comic

mathtans

He can sweep Arrow of his feet, ah ha hah.

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

he fights with cleaning and food, perfect

DracoPlato

The boiling water attack XD

Mharz of Angels & Punchy Ladies

erik best maid

AngelicEmpyress of Chromacity

lol maths!

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

FIST OF THE CLEAN SHEET

RebelVampire

his magical boy costume needs to be a maid outfit

DracoPlato

aaaaaah missed opportunity!!

that'd have been better XD

mathtans

Save that for when Erik and Celeste accidentally switch costumes when they transform together.

Kabocha

lmao

DracoPlato

I'm going to clean up these streets!

AngelicEmpyress of Chromacity

lol

DracoPlato

omg math(edited)

i want that to happen now

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

do it

it can happen

DracoPlato

it can

Mharz of Angels & Punchy Ladies

yus

DracoPlato

i can make this happen still

Mharz of Angels & Punchy Ladies

believe in you that believes

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

and arrow will only get gayer then

DracoPlato

arrow gets better looking

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

FIST OF THE CLEAN SHEET

DracoPlato

I'm so sad, this is the comic that could have been

mathtans

Heh, Naples.

Mharz of Angels & Punchy Ladies

LOL

DracoPlato

naples says this is ridiculous

Mharz of Angels & Punchy Ladies

naples so cute

DracoPlato

I think naples is the same soul as Little Bee in OoO

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

thinking of that attack make me think of bo-bobo

DracoPlato

looool

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

ha

Mharz of Angels & Punchy Ladies

flies off

RebelVampire

i am sad you have prefaced that soul statement with "i think"(edited)

DracoPlato

haha you noticed that

his soul is not one i think about a whole ton

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

draco why

DracoPlato

I think he's draco's son too

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

god the soul connections make shit wierd(edited)

DracoPlato

yis

but that soul is Erik's astral pet

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

on so many fucking levels

DracoPlato

so he always gets some subservient life to erik

Mharz of Angels & Punchy Ladies

the squirell?

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

thats kinda fucked up

DracoPlato

yus

mathtans

Does Celeste get a pet later?

Mharz of Angels & Punchy Ladies

is draco's son?

wow

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

no the soul

DracoPlato

Draco has a son called Pal

Mharz of Angels & Punchy Ladies

whatever

DracoPlato

Celeste doesn't

Mharz of Angels & Punchy Ladies

still the same soul

DracoPlato

the squirrel isn't related to erik's powers

AngelicEmpyress of Chromacity

is so lost XDDD

DracoPlato

However he gave naples the ability to speak when he used his powers for the first time

mathtans

Celeste could rent Naples when she wears Erik's clothes though.

DracoPlato

lololol

maybe she can get a pet when she visits Erik's family out in the country XD

maybe a raccoon(edited)

mathtans

The pencil is her pet.

Mharz of Angels & Punchy Ladies

she doesn't need a pet she has erik already

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

and her sword

Mharz of Angels & Punchy Ladies

goats can be pets too

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

mharz, erik is person

DracoPlato

erik is her pet, that's accurate

her fluffy butt

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

people are not pets

RebelVampire

Erik: Celeste what is that? Celeste: My pet raccoon I found eating your garbage in the middle of the night.

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

wow draco thats fucked up

DracoPlato

Erik: I don't know if that's safe Celeste

Celeste: It's okay, I gave it a muzzle

at least she didn't just put a leash on one of his younger siblings and call it a pet

Kabocha

oh no lmao

Mharz of Angels & Punchy Ladies

LOL

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

...

DracoPlato

celeste may not be the best pet owner

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

or best person

at all

mathtans

I wanna know why she keeps leashes.

DracoPlato

she doesn't really XD

she's not into bondage i promise

I want her to have a pet raccoon now tho

I love raccoons

Mharz of Angels & Punchy Ladies

doesn't have racoons here

DracoPlato

http://elelur.com/data_images/mammals/raccoon/raccoon-01.jpg

jazz hands

Mharz of Angels & Punchy Ladies

nor squirrels

only cats and dogs

DracoPlato

we don't have them here either

mathtans

Oh well. I figured maybe the leashes were for the robots.

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

one of the few animals to have thumbs

DracoPlato

ooooh, I think arrow uses chains for the robots

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

kinky

mathtans

(But no whips, phew)

DracoPlato

well arrow isn't doing kinky things with his robots, lol!

he's just doing what will get funded

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

that you know of

mathtans

Putting the FUN into funded.

DracoPlato

nah arrow only loves erik

omg XD

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

and erik bot

RebelVampire

well maybe he has to chain erik up in the yard so erik doesnt wander off

DracoPlato

there's actually going to be a huge problem if arrow does anything with someone not Erik, but I won't say what

Mharz of Angels & Punchy Ladies

50 shades of arrow

mathtans

So, somewhat back on track, is Erik's family cursed?

DracoPlato

my fluffy butt goat needs to be chained in the back yard

nah, they're not cursed, they're just fauns

just how they are

mathtans

So are there others like them in the world we don't know about?

DracoPlato

Feather, Duke of Comedic Timing

Ah I'm late

I love this comic though :3

AngelicEmpyress of Chromacity

Feather!

DracoPlato

yus~! there's other fauns and supernatural/non human creatures

Mharz of Angels & Punchy Ladies

there are lots of hybrid people there tho

Feather, Duke of Comedic Timing

AE! :3

DracoPlato

Hiiii Feather~!

Feather, Duke of Comedic Timing

Hi draco :3

Mharz of Angels & Punchy Ladies

REMEMBER THE FISH BABIES

mathtans

Oooh, interesting. But I guess that's not common knowledge.

AngelicEmpyress of Chromacity

yay finally a comic feather likes XDDDD

Mharz of Angels & Punchy Ladies

meh

DracoPlato

Nah, they tend to hide from regular society, that's why his family lives in the country

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

yet his bro is a famous singer

way to hide

DracoPlato

they have a large area of land so they don't see other people that often where they live so they just live as themselves vs. pretending to be human

Mharz of Angels & Punchy Ladies

well he uses disguise

it works

RebelVampire

he has a famous sister too

DracoPlato

yeah if they live in the city they use disguises

erik's parents lived in the city and were singers too when they were younger

Mharz of Angels & Punchy Ladies

I'm pretty sure goat ears and horns fits in operas

mathtans

"We hide by encouraging paparazzi. ... Wait."

DracoPlato

well it's okay if they don't mess up

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

mathtans

As long as they get enough sunlight.

Mharz of Angels & Punchy Ladies

oh this is just a fashion headband

yes

DracoPlato

mathtans

I think she was shown fawnish at one point.

Mharz of Angels & Punchy Ladies

she revealed her horns on the part where decebal appears

delta observe

DracoPlato

well Mickeal and his sister have had their human transformer things so long the charge isn't really at risk of running out

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

cuase i swear she had the goat ears out when at the studio

DracoPlato

yeah she's a faun, she's too young for the transformer thing

Mharz of Angels & Punchy Ladies

mickeals wife is human right?

DracoPlato

she's human and not his wife, haha

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

Mharz of Angels & Punchy Ladies

DracoPlato

Mharz of Angels & Punchy Ladies

Kabocha

Talk about bad luck

DracoPlato

Mickeal wanted to be involved in the sciences as a researcher

mathtans

Oh. Oh my. That's gotta be a conversation you have before the birth. "Will it be a boy or a girl, do you think?" "Okay, um, let's talk species first..."

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

but sings intead

DracoPlato

but he had to get a job when he was going to be a teen dad so he went the easy route of being a singer

YEAH! So sam didn't know he was a faun, lol

Mharz of Angels & Punchy Ladies

it's not obvious becos she wears a hat

DracoPlato

so she was not happy when she found out

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

Mharz of Angels & Punchy Ladies

the ears can just be somekind of earmuffs

Kabocha

so how old is Mickeal now?

DracoPlato

coughs

I need to look

Mharz of Angels & Punchy Ladies

it's believable

Kabocha

teen dad + small child = ....20ish?

DracoPlato

yeah he's in his twenties

mathtans

I feel like "not happy"'s an understatment. Makes the ultrasounds interesting.

DracoPlato

i've changed his age a lot so i don't remember off hand exactly

Kabocha

lmao imagine finding a doctor who didn't want to study that

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

probably early 20's

mathtans

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

DracoPlato

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

AngelicEmpyress of Chromacity

Feather, Duke of Comedic Timing

Anyways, I really enjoyed the comic, and how I ahve to go qwq

DracoPlato

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

HIS DRILL IS THE DRILL THAT MADE THE SPACE PEOPLE

DracoPlato

awwww thank you for coming Feather~!

Kabocha

oh nooo

Mharz of Angels & Punchy Ladies

it pierces everything

mathtans

Arrow makes the robots, he should have the drill.

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

AUDIBLE MOTHER FUCKING GASP(edited)

DracoPlato

lol, arrow would have the drill

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

ARROW CAN MAKE NAPPLES A MECH(edited)

DracoPlato

fffffffft

that'd be awesome XD

I need to remember that

tiny squirrel mecha

mathtans

A mech that looks like a raccoon.

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

with a drill

Mharz of Angels & Punchy Ladies

OMG

DracoPlato

naples says but i'm not a raccoon, how dare you

Kabocha

ahahahahaha

Mharz of Angels & Punchy Ladies

it's okay napples

racoons can be squirrels too

Kabocha

I have to keep doing a double-take every time someone says napples

RebelVampire

QUESTION 4. While Hope reveals the increase in demons are the result of Decebal’s plans, not much else is revealed. What do you think Decebal’s plans entail? What does this have to do with turning Hope into Despair?

DracoPlato

celeste's raccoon can be Naples for halloween

yeah we kept reading naples as nipples

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

decebal gonna kill eveyone in hope of cause despair

Kabocha

Decebal probably noticed that people turn to god whenever things get bad

DracoPlato

he said he was making hope one of the pillars in the beginning

Kabocha

"We're praying for you" lololol

DracoPlato

yus, hope says that too

Kabocha

Yeah

So I mean, I think it's pretty transparent

DracoPlato

yeah, hope really already said decebal's whole plan

Kabocha

If the world needs an evil, then he'll be that evil if it means making god love everyone

erm

everyone love god

DracoPlato

yeeeeees, that's perfect

mathtans

Decebal wants people to send him hopes and prayers?

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

yep

DracoPlato

this applies to Rex too, that logic

Decebal wants people to turn back to God

AngelicEmpyress of Chromacity

doesn't see that in Rex >.>

DracoPlato

cause he is first and foremost an angel

Rex wants the same tho

Kabocha

Quick someone do a version of Servant of Evil with Decebal

AngelicEmpyress of Chromacity

throws much popcorn at rex

RebelVampire

but the question is more how he intends to do this. cause saying you want ppl to suffer is different than ya know, actually doing it and making it happen

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

and rex has the same souls as decebal

DracoPlato

Yus

Rex loves god the most

Kabocha

You know, I dunno that it's entirely clear how, aside from making people just miserable. Cause chaos, destruction, floods, teenage pregnancies

AngelicEmpyress of Chromacity

tells damon to stop eating her ammo

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

that explains the preist get up

DracoPlato

yus, he's not dressed as a priest just out of sarcasm, lol

AngelicEmpyress of Chromacity

mindblown

0.0

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

but sarcams is part of it?

DracoPlato

wait he says it clearly in a special i wrote

AngelicEmpyress of Chromacity

dies

RebelVampire

no dont die you must live!

mathtans

Maybe some of the demons get away from him.

AngelicEmpyress of Chromacity

dies twice

DracoPlato

oh and that

Mharz of Angels & Punchy Ladies

his intentions wasn't bad

DracoPlato

he says it clearly there

Mharz of Angels & Punchy Ladies

the execution tho

mathtans

Someone gets executed?

DracoPlato

yeah rex is misguided for sure

rex/decebal

but he has good intentions

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

wow rex, preteniuos dick wad(edited)

AngelicEmpyress of Chromacity

flails

DracoPlato

but he just sees it as a role

mathtans

role 1d6.

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

still a dick wad(edited)

DracoPlato

rex originally had wings too but he ripped them off, fun fact

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

no mat its a d20

mathtans

Ow... isn't that painful? O.o

DracoPlato

only fallen angels have wings

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

oh i get it

DracoPlato

it was painful but he didn't want giant wings, hahah

AngelicEmpyress of Chromacity

has a character whose wings get ripped off >.>

Mharz of Angels & Punchy Ladies

LOL

mathtans

"Anyone wanna buy some giant wings? I don't need these any more."

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

hes litteraly playing as the devil right down to the look

RebelVampire

he didnt want to get stuck in doorways like poor drake

Mharz of Angels & Punchy Ladies

giant wings are hard to stage

AngelicEmpyress of Chromacity

lol

Mharz of Angels & Punchy Ladies

trust me I know

DracoPlato

Well erik technically- wait that's a spoiler

Kabocha

ahahha

AngelicEmpyress of Chromacity

>.>

mathtans

Ink gets spilled all over giant wings.

AngelicEmpyress of Chromacity

<.<

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

oh now you put a lid on it

AngelicEmpyress of Chromacity

nuuu!

DracoPlato

a lot of damon is the karma for erik tho

even tho erik is a future life

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

HOW DOES TIME WORK THERE THEN

DracoPlato

everything is the eternal now?

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

god damn it, theres no free will in dracos world

DracoPlato

oh that's not true

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

....

DracoPlato

there's free will

just there's the law of karma

so it's your choices that dictate your karma

your karma is basically what creates the scenario

AngelicEmpyress of Chromacity

interesting

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

getting punished for some that will happen that hasn't does not help the free will existing side

Mharz of Angels & Punchy Ladies

yay life is strange

mathtans

How much karma are the main characters banking so far?

DracoPlato

oh that's impossible to gauge since they have so many lives and each life creates karma

everything in a way is karma

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

now is this hindu karma or budduist karma(edited)

DracoPlato

closest to hindu i'd think

mathtans

Does the karma run on regular unleaded gasoline or diesel.

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

so the good karma

premium mat

DracoPlato

karma is neither good nor bad really, it's just the outcome of your choices I think

mathtans

Yeah, I can see that.

Mharz of Angels & Punchy Ladies

just like life

DracoPlato

but like rex is a product of his choices

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

well in buddihism, all karma is just bad

DracoPlato

oh no it's not that

mathtans

If rex is a product of it, he's multiplying.

DracoPlato

it's like, all of creation is a play, so the souls are actors in lives

but they exist outside of the play as well, so the events within the play are in a sense neither good nor bad as it's just the story

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

oh its super mario 3

DracoPlato

lololol

mathtans

Do they keep the same colour speech bubble?

Mharz of Angels & Punchy Ladies

XD

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

yes

DracoPlato

yes~!!

so i don't have to keep picking new colors, LOL

but i like people being able to identify them too

I think it's cool to see the progression of the souls since that's really what it's about

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

and becuase time travels a thing, the same souls can talk to itself

Mharz of Angels & Punchy Ladies

gotta observe all colors

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

yes you should

DracoPlato

yus, some lives talk to themselves more than others, lol

damon talks to himself the most

RebelVampire

that sounds right for friendless damon

DracoPlato

Damon: cries

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

be more socail then

mathtans

Possession makes things interesting then.

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

and stop sleeping with your unlce/half mom its wierd

DracoPlato

yes! Notice that Erik's bubble color didn't change when he was possesed

everything about damon is weird

RebelVampire

damon lives sure like to interfere with each other

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

they do

and nadia lives too

DracoPlato

well in Vijaya's sense he uses his other lives as a tool

cause it's part of his job

nadia lives are pretty horrible most of the time, hahah

in their deviousness

RebelVampire

vijaya plz thats rude

DracoPlato

Nadia and Sam have the same bubble color(edited)

mathtans

So the big question... are they gonna get a detention at school for skipping class.

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

its pretty fucked up taking control of your past life man(edited)

DracoPlato

looooool

sadly they won't

they should have tho

Arrow and Celeste's parents would be pretty mad

RebelVampire

nobody noticed they were gone

mathtans

They'll forge some notes?

RebelVampire

were like "ah man theres not twin shenanigans in class today this is great."

DracoPlato

yus, they probably forge notes a lot XD

people were glad they left, lol

i dont' think celeste and arrow have a ton of friends

AngelicEmpyress of Chromacity

maths is a teacher...he will tell XDDD

mathtans

>:)

DracoPlato

well at least they're good students cutting class

RebelVampire

i cant see celeste having friends cause shes umm....decently mean >_>

DracoPlato

but nah, in canon she has 0 friends atm

mathtans

But she's good looking.

DracoPlato

she thinks she is, lolol

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

rebel, theres gotta be some guy in her shool that wants be her friend

mathtans

Well, I like the hair braid. ^.^

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

its really long

mathtans

TWSS.

DracoPlato

:"D she has really long hair

RebelVampire

maybe all the guys have met her and know about her meanness

DracoPlato

she was probably super mean to them XD

i have a story where her soul is the bad guy, haha

she always teeters on the edge of good and evil

mathtans

She doesn't seem super upset about her life though. Maybe she's glad that no one can figure out her magic identity.

DracoPlato

Yeah! She really doesn't mind not having any friends tbh

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

oh well shes not getting into heaven anytime soon

DracoPlato

cause she doesn't respect other people

but she's pretty chill

awwww

well there's technically no heaven or hell in the usual sense

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

you know what i mean

i make it simple for others

mathtans

lifts eyebrow Oh, that was a euphamism?

DracoPlato

but delta

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

i know

and there no time to explain

mathtans

Why'd you gotta go and make things so complicated.

RebelVampire

technically theres 7 mins to explain

AngelicEmpyress of Chromacity

lol

DracoPlato

cause if it wasn't complicated i'd spoil it all

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

that just draco mat...

DracoPlato

then there'd be nothing to find out

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

damn it rebel

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

7 MINUTES 7 MINUTES

THAT BARELY TIME ENOUGH TO DO ANYTHING(edited)

DracoPlato

Hell is probably just suffering in general

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BDGw3PU0uxw

DracoPlato

heaven is freedom from suffering, lol

looooool

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

SEVEN MINUTES

wow the clip goes longer than i though

DracoPlato

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/232408315328462850/335215969968455700/image.png

RebelVampire

mathtans

I wonder if Arrow likes Aero chocolate bars. Erik could buy him one. "I thought of you."

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

arrow is hella gay

and a lyall soul

DracoPlato

awwww that'd be be sweet

arrow at least had hetero porn mags

under his bed

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

DracoPlato

RebelVampire

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

SirDelta God King of Mecha, Time

AngelicEmpyress of Chromacity

Mharz of Angels & Punchy Ladies
