#still love her character tho

[hoeneymilktea]

Can you give leia headcanons 🥹🥹🤲🏼🤲🏼 i miss her sm

Yes I can! Leia is one of my favorite characters in here as she plays a very important role to the plot's exposition. The character is loosely based on a friend I had. Unfortunately we don't really talk anymore but her character still lives on lol

Idk if any of yall read her fanfic, but she basically wrote about Leia and Kuroo's life in the deciphered universe. She never continued the fanfic after two chapters, but a lot of what we talked about (when we used to still talk) was a lot of prequel stuff about Leia and Kuroo and Oikawa and just about everyone before y/n came into the picture. I'll probably write a sequel lowkey to deciphered about Oikawa and his backstory, as well as Leia and Kuroo's backstory too, since she never got to finish it.

Long story short, Leia's backstory goes that she's grown up in a wealthy yakuza family her entire life. Her father, Mr. Sakanoshita (we will never know of his first name and I intent to keep it that way) is the leader of the most well known and powerful yakuza clan of Tokyo, and basically all of Japan. He has the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department wrapped around his finger, and I basically alluded and explained that in the more recent chapters of deciphered. Anyways.

Leia has an older brother, Keishin (Ukai) Sakanoshita. He passed away in a really bad car accident, where he basically did an Iwa (sorry) and crashed his car, but this time, his car actually blew up. His car's nickname was "death trap" for a reason, but both Leia and Kuroo suspected that it was the work of her dad. They both think Mr. Sakanoshita intended to murder his own son for the suspect of treason upon his own clan.

Because of her older brother passing away, she was extremely empathetic to y/n and her grievances with Iwa when he was in a coma. Sometimes when y/n wasn't able to make it to the hospital to spend some time with Iwa, Leia would go in her place. She didn't even care about Iwa like that before he got into his accident, but since y/n was basically her best friend (and for her unspoken empathy because of her own brother's death), she did those favors anyway. Plus she's pregnant and can't really do anything else

Another headcanon is that she actually loathes her racing nickname, because "Princess" is supposed to be an intimate pet name between her and Kuroo. He was the one to give her the nickname in endearment, and it provides a lot of meaning for her and their relationship. Though, unfortunately because of her reputation as the daughter of the "King of Tokyo", referring to her father, she despises the racing nickname in that context (even tho that's literally the same reason why Kuroo started calling her Princess... but he denies that's the reason for her sake lol).

So Leia is actually very much a Miu Miu and Chanel girlie. She wears more Miu Miu than Chanel, but she favors both fashion houses. Both her and y/n rock Vivienne Westwood though (kinda like in a Nana way, except give y/n Hachi's personality with Nana's style, and give Leia Hachi's style with Nana's personality).

One last headcanon is that she actually hated Oikawa, like A LOT before y/n got herself involved with him. Her reasons is that he was generally known as a prick with his facade, as well as the fact he literally SHOT Kuroo the first time they met), but obviously the more y/n and Kuroo got involved with him, the more she started to tolerate Oikawa. She liked Iwa A LOT more than Oikawa though!

Y'know, I think I figured out why the Hells still feel like a new low-level party to me, even though they're level 13 and almost 100 episodes in.

I don't quite think it's the lack of conversations, or the fact half the party's plot hooks are big ties to past campaigns - though that definitely plays a part.

... Bell's Hells still primarily rely on quest givers.

Most of their goals are given to them and do not feel organic to the party, and constantly remind us that the Hells are pretty much never the most powerful people in the room. Which is usually something you see with a low-level party.

NPCs offering jobs is not a bad thing; it's a very common plot hook. Matt has been extremely skilled with using NPC quest givers in those two campaigns. Not only do they provide an obvious plot thread, but they can put the party in the path of others (say, the Nein running into the Iron Shepherds while doing a job for the Gentleman and everything that came of that). And the Hells had a solid start with it too - Eshteross was an excellent quest giver!

The problem is that Bell's Hells have never really not had a quest giver.

Maybe it's a byproduct of the more plot-heavy structure of this campaign? But while prior parties have felt like they decided on their course of action and what they prioritized, Bell's Hells feels less like level 13 (13! Level 13!) experienced adventurers and more like an MMO group clicking on the exclamation point over an NPC's head. Where does the plot demand we go next? Who do we report back to?

They're level 13.

At level 13, Vox Machina had just defeated a necromantic city-state to clear their name and Percy's conscience. And, you know, the Conclave just destroyed Emon. No one was explicitly telling the group to gather Vestiges and save the world (though Matt guided them there), and they were usually among the most powerful people in the room. They chose which Vestiges to prioritize, which dragons to tackle when, even if the over-all plot was pretty clear.

At level 13, the Mighty Nein were celebrating Traveler Con (another PC goal, I'll note) after brokering peace between two nations, accidentally becoming pirates and heroes of the Dynasty. The Nein regularly chose what to do based on personal goals, not grand ones. Though definitely smaller fish than Vox Machina at this level, they were very independent and gaining solid political clout.

While we're at it: level 13 is one level lower than the Ring of Brass, who had a huge amount of sway over Avalir. They ended the world, and also saved it, while in the grand scheme of things being only a smidge more powerful than Bell's Hells are now.

Can you really see the Hells wielding that amount of influence, when they're constantly being told what to do next?

The god-eater might be unleashed, so Bell's Hells have no time to do anything but what is asked of them. No time for therapy unless stolen from Feywild time, no travel on foot and late-night watches. They haven't even had time to grieve FCG. Percy was grieved in the middle of the Conclave arc. Molly was grieved when half the party was still in irons.

Matt is in the very unfortunate spot of not being able to give the Hells the same agency as the other two parties. Not only because of the world-ending plot introduced so early on; they are surrounded by characters they know (and the cast knows) are stronger and wiser than them - the familiarity of the past PCs and NPCs is to their disadvantage.

Why would the party reasonably ignore Keyleth's task that will help save the world and go off on a romp? Why would the cast when they know well Keyleth has to be sensible and with the best intentions in mind? The stakes are just too high.

It means that the Hells still feel like they're running errands instead of pursuing their own destiny. Their accomplishments are diminished as just being parts of a to-do list, and any stakes feel padded by several level 20 PCs/NPCs standing 5 steps away ready to catch them.

This isn't Bell's Hell's fault, nor is it Matt's. It could be amended, I think, if the Hells are really left to their own devices for a long period of time without support and shortcuts (like during the party split)... which would be really tricky to pull off at this point in the campaign.

They're level 13. They're big fish, but they're stuck in a pond full of friendly sharks, so they don't feel big at all.

"I depend on you..." "Do I or do you?"

My take on the "I depend on you" art trend from Twitter✨ Every now and then I want to draw something with bright colors... and blood

[azure-clockwork]

I love three houses discourse because I'm pretty sure everyone just picks their route based on which house leader they're the most gay for and then tries to defend their pick by pointing out the other sides's war crimes via twitter memes. Reader, all four of them do substantial quantities of war crimes. So many. We're just here because the woman with Issues and a big fuck-off axe said so, and then we gotta justify everything she did in the name of dismantling the class system. I mean, I'm here for that, but you could also try justifying Charm Man uses poison and perfidy to try to stop racism, A Sad Little Meow Meow gives no quarter instead of doing therapy, or the Thicc Pope tries to bring back her mom via human experimentation, depending on your tastes
