to Spearmaster: do you visit seven red suns often or do you live there?
Hunter: Damn, how do your hands not cramp?
(Spearmaster is giving the informal ASL sign for "hate," in case you were curious.)

Hey Arti; I find it helps to focus on something that is not the problem. On that note how is Five Pebbles doing, do you ever visit him?

I hate to break your heart monk but seniority is a real word... 😔
3/5
The mere idea of Survivor being right brings along pain unimaginable to the minds of all mortals but Monk.

Hunter , do you have a "bucket list" of sorts for big things you want to do before dying?
Survivor: Wait, you wanted to be our dad? Mom just said it's because you're int-
Hunter: Let's not discuss the comments Artificer makes about me, actually. What's said behind my back should stay behind my back.

Kinda can't wait for when Rivulet gets unlocked so I can go ALL OUT on the ADHD experience. You guys are gunna see the world through the eyes of a guy who has yet to turn in an assignment on time in 4 years.

to survivor: not going to lie, this one is on you.
1/5
Being the youngest sucks. It'd probably suck less if Survivor was a good brother.

Okay, for those who might be confused: the Cycle still exists in my AU. If you die, you just wake up at the beginning of the cycle. Ascending via Void Fluid or Saint is the only true death.
Hunter isn’t technically dying, his body is being replaced by the Rot. I imagine that the Cycle applies more on a biological level that a spiritual one. From Hunter’s perspective, he’s absolutely dying. He’ll just get weaker and sicker until all that’s left of him is his brain receiving no outside stimuli. Once he’s reached that point, it’ll just get harder and harder to think until he can’t anymore, and then he’ll truly be gone.
I imagine this is only possible because the Rot is essentially cancer. It’s not a separate organism, it’s just Hunter’s cells growing into what we call the Rot.
For those generally curious about the Cycle in my AU, I’ll explain it. None of the currently ask-able slugcats could explain it better than “if you die, you just wake up that morning,” and Saint would just give you a spiritual word-salad when she gets unlocked.
The Cycle is a 2 day timespan, though, due to evolving to live in a world consumed by the Rain, most animals only experience the first day of the Cycle (will explain later in this post). If a creature dies of anything besides old age, they’ll reset their cycle, losing a Karma level, unless they’ve eaten a Karma Flower. Now, if someone dies during a cycle and you survive, they’ll be dead permanently in your cycle.
Here’s an example: Enot & Nightcat are exploring Outskirts.
Enot gets speared by a Scav, Nightcat doesn’t.
For the rest of Nightcat’s life, Enot is dead. They’re permanently gone and can never return.
Things are different from Enot’s perspective. Enot wakes up the day they died and can change the events of that day so they don’t die.
Let’s say Enot & Nightcat are good friends. Well, Enot dies and Nightcat doesn’t wanna lose Enot, so Nightcat let’s themself get speared too. Both Enot & Nightcat would wake up at the start of the cycle they died.
Now, remember how I said the Cycle is 2 days, but most creatures only experience one day of the Cycle? This is because the Rains were timed with the Cycle by the Ancients. Each Cycle is timed the same. There’s the Clear Day, then it rains all night, and then the Drain Day. During the Drain Day, the world is completely flooded and all the water is draining out to sea, so it’s pretty uninhabitable on the surface.
Even when not affected by the Rain, such as the Sluggang living in Metropolis (Arti cleaned out the Scavs very thoroughly) or the Scug colonies in Outer Expanse, Slugcats will still typically sleep through the second day of the Cycle. It’s just how they’re built.
Sorry for the long wall of text lol. Idk, I find the Cycle as a game mechanic & story element super interesting, so I took as much as I could and used it for my AU!

To arti: How are you? (after that incident)
Gourmand: Mind her sarcasm, she has a lot of it~! She's...not well. Smoking pretty bad, actually. I'm keeping a close watch to make sure she doesn't blow up again...
(Gourmand is now open for asks!)

Soooo monk, how's your mouth doing? The bleeding looked real bad when arti walked in.
Survivor: Momma said he'll be fine; he just needs to heal a bit! It's not that big of a deal, to be honest. I've seen Monk get chewed up by lizards before, so some glass cuts are nothing.
