4.2 spoilers but it's interesting how Scaramouche and Furina were both made as replacements. But while Ei saw Scara's humanity as a flaw, Focalors thought that's what made Furina perfect.

I need the two of them to interact

I hope you’ve enjoyed the part you played these five hundred years.

post 4.2 furina finds out neuvillette said she was 'prone to hysterics' and is like 'hahaha.... yeah, yeah i was wasn't i? it must have been awful, having to deal with me for all those centuries...'

and you know neuvillette is standing there wracked with guilt like

(it starts to storm and furina thinks its because he's remembering how annoying and frustrating it was working with her, and meanwhile neuvillette is three seconds away from throwing himself on the ground and begging for forgiveness)

Focalor: I love her

Also Focalor: so fuck her lmao

impending finale ✧

4.2 Archon Quest SPOILERS

Hydro dragon, hydro dragon don't cry~

last meal

I’ll bet Celestia is fucking pissed after the 4.2 Archon quest. And I for one, couldn’t be happier. Fuck Celestia for making Focalors and Furina suffer

I drew some wriollette to calm myself down. Never thought I would be crying so much after quest in Genshin, but here I am sobbing.

context is Childe giving Neuvillette the thumbs down in 4.2.. but like.. I would've waved at him... maybe gave him a thumbs up back too while I'm at it. he's so funny though bro really said "get better."

furina demo in a nutshell

4.2 archon quest spoilers

~~~

i love the idea of furina getting herself a plushie collection after she steps down as archon. it wasn't something she could allow herself when she was still seen as a god (beneath her station) but now she can indulge in cute, comforting things.

Just finished archon quest. Childe and Skirk commentary:

Good God Skirk is so much worse of a person than I expected. I love her.

Most people I know hate her and I think a lot of it is because one, her design is too vtuber and not enough monster, which, fair, even if I don't 100% agree, and two, we were all kinda hoping for Childe to have his Abyssal Found Family and not the person probably single-handedly responsible for most of the things wrong with him. She is awful. She outright says that the reason Childe thought she wasn't very chatty was because he was too weak for her to bother carrying a conversation with him. A literal teenager.

The yeet wasn't funny. I don't think it was intended to be. She sounded bored the entire time, as if this man didn't just spend a MONTH IN SOUP FIGHTING A WORLD-ENDING MONSTER FROM SPACE with a delusion that's killing him.

Meeting Skirk has given me a whole new respect for Childe. He turned out this well DESPITE her?! He views that as a role model, and his biggest problem is seeing himself as a tool instead of a person?? This kid's incredible.

I'm choosing to view Skirk and Childe's relationship as Mom /neg, not because she's particularly motherly towards him even in a shitty abusive way, but because she was uniquely poised to Fuck Him Up how only a mother can. She's responsible for his life. She's everything he ever wanted to be. He's been chasing her approval ever since he fell in that hole, and he's never gonna get it. This kid needs better friends.

(Though, on the other hand, if Foul is anything like Rhinedottir, Skirk probably comes by it honestly? Skirk's awful but she might actually not be the worst case scenario)

This archon quest has completely changed how I think of both Childe and Furina and I'm losing my mind. This is going up with fullmetal alchemist as some of my alltime favorite media.

what do you mean furina isn’t an archon?? she’s literally a god to all the theatre kids
