I don't have any specific asks I just want you to talk about Liifa my buddy Liifa. (from yours truly @ratasum)

my main rat himself!!!

SO i'm just picking out a random piece of information about him, but! Liifa's little 'chronic adopter disease' is partly due to his own regrets. He had a daughter with his ex-girlfriend Bjiattu and they were separated permanently thanks to Bjiattu. He constantly feels like he failed Amrita, and I think that's part of what makes him want to not fail any other kids, even ones that aren't his uwu;

(the biggest irony is that he's unknowingly carrying Amrita around in the Binding for the last like 200 years, but.. dw, they figure that out eventually KJFAHDF)

#c:Liifa #thank you for the ask !! ♥#*sable's stuff #SORRY IF THIS IS MILDLY SAD? i was thinking about liifa n amrita angst earlier.#he feels like he failed her and she's just trying to find him bc she's so attached to him #and unknowingly he's carrying the thing that has her trapped inside of it. and neither of them know that the other is there.#ANYWHO-

@atittueball it won’t let me answer your ask directly (I think Tumblr was glitching a bit because of the pictures) so I’m tagging you here!

It was super hard to choose a quote because they were all amazing! Thank you for the suggestions 💚💚💚

Last updated: 11.25.23

About this fanfic:

This fanfic is nothing but for self-pleasure. It's not meant to be written professionally or such. In this fanfic, the Fontaine prophecy already passed and Paimon doesn't exist either. Somehow, you (the Traveler) convinced the Duke to join you in your journey.

The inspiration:

"I can show you some other teapot realms, too, if you'd like."

This is the teapot dialogue that convinced me to write about traveling Teyvat with Wriothesley.

He seems very happy about it :)

He's so inspiring! ...And always grateful to you<3

NOTES

Please don't add me in-game without asking. I will ignore it.

Please don't repost the fic itself. But you can use my photos, preferably with credits.

Please share and enjoy.

Be respectful or leave.

—Thank you<3 @/grimoirelle | cc

Someone to be Proud of (Recom Quaritch x Human Female Reader) - Part 6

Please read before interacting.

Thank you so much for your patience for this part! It was a hard week. I am so grateful for all the new followers, passed 100 this week! Welcome to everybody and thank you for the support!! :)

You packed a bag. You did not know when to leave, where to go. All you needed was to get away. In a flurry, you tossed your clothes into the bag. You threw in a couple of portable solar power battery packs for the air masks. A first aid kit, some nonperishable meal packets and a water bottle. Your tablet lit up and you pulled up your notifications. There was going to be a trip in a couple of days to another location that would be linked to Bridgehead. If they spread out the colony sites, then the resources wouldn’t be depleted so quickly in one spot.

You sighed deeply. What was the point of even going? You didn’t really have the heart for it anymore. But maybe this would be the time to escape. You sent a confirmation that you had received the message. About to put your tablet down, you stopped at the ding of another notification.

Missing you. Hope to see you in a few days.

Miles

Repulsed, you swiped it away, refusing to respond. How you’d handle that, who knew? But you weren’t going to be waiting for him.

~~~

Miles watched as the mother tulkun was impaled by the harpoon. She let out a groan and her calf whined. He winced, something bothering him. Something he wouldn’t look too closely at. The tulkun was pulled onto the ship, a machine taking him, Spider, the captain and a scientist in its mouth. Spider was looking around in awe of seeing another creature of Pandora so closely. The scientist was talking to him, explaining about the intelligence of the tulkun. Spider listened attentively until the captain interrupted, making a joke about dropping the Amrita. The scientist, Garvin, stared at him flat-faced and then turned around to his screen.

The captain annoyed Miles. He was just a tiny, greedy man. No true purpose other than money and fame. Worthless. The word resounded off the walls of his mind. What was his own purpose?

They dumped the tulkun, leaving the tracker stabbed into its side for Sully to find. If he was so close to these ocean clans and they were close to the tulkun, he could be provoked out with anger.

A few days after, they saw a lone tulkun. The small boats dropped and shot a tracker into it before returning to the main ship. The ship followed the signal and came around a tall rock to see small blue shapes moving on top of the creature. Miles looked through the binoculars and smirked. “Well, I’ll be damned. Sully’s kids. Let’s go.” He stepped away, moving to alert the captain to drop the smaller subs to go catch the kids. Spider ran after him and jumped, pulling on his arm.

“Why are you doing this?! Stop! Just leave them alone!!”

He whirled on Spider. His mouth snarled in a furious way. He was so close to getting everything he thought he wanted. So close to completing the mission. If Spider was more of a soldier, Miles was sure he would understand. “Get to the bridge. Go now. Or else the ass whoopin’ I mentioned a while back still stands.”

Spider growled and Miles signaled for guards to escort him back. He jerked his arms away and stomped on ahead of them. Miles’ ears flattened and he shook his head, clearing his thoughts. The subs returned after a bit and brought three of the kids along with it. One was a lighter blue with a different tail, but he handcuffed all of them to the railing anyway. Jake and the tribe he’d been hiding with had come into the area. He held a gun to the head of the boy next to him. ‘Boy’. A child. He winced internally, imagining Spider in his place. He knew he would do anything to save that kid for a chance to know him. This was the right choice to bring Jake in.

He talked to Jake over the comm systems and threatened the lives of the children. He paused, waiting for him to come closer to surrender himself. What he’d do with the kids after? Maybe hold them hostage. What would you think of him? Damn, you probably wouldn’t approve of the situation in the first place. He decided he wasn’t sure he would ever tell you.

~~~

It wasn’t up to him anymore. Your train was leaving in an hour and so you had your bag prepped and ready to go at your feet. You went toward the room that had the body cam footage in it before. Just on the off chance you could see more of what was going on. The door was cracked again. You covered your mouth in panic, trying to hide the gasps that were coming from you.

This was Miles’ cam. His voice was too close for it to not be him. He was holding a gun to the head of a young boy, his head turned, anger in his eyes. Another girl, worried sat beside him, and no, there was one more, hidden in between the two older ones. She looked up, her eyes wide, face so small and vulnerable. Children. He was threatening children to get to Sully. Whatever Sully may or may not have done, threatening children was something that could not be justified, something that you would never be able to unsee. You picked up your bag and shuffled quietly to the end of the hallway from the conference room. You took off toward the train, determined not to miss it. You had been given confirmation of your decision to leave.

~~~

The ache in your chest swallowed you whole as you rode the train toward the potential location of another colony. Were you even told the truth? Humans had twisted and messed up the world for as long as they had been alive so you supposed it made sense that they would tell a completely false story about the events on Pandora years ago. Head pounding from the new revelations, you rested it against the window, steady motion lulling you to sleep.

A screeching alarm woke you up. You looked around, but all you could see were your other team members panicking and putting on their masks. You followed protocol and donned yours too. The train squealed loudly over the tracks, trying to stop. You started to rise in your seat, quickly pulling your seatbelt over you to stop it and gripped the armrests, fighting the nausea and hysteria rising in your throat. The train flipped and toppled over. You felt the impact jolt you, rattling your brain around in your skull. Keeping your eyes shut tight, you waited until your body stopped shaking long enough to register what had happened.

You opened your eyes and looked around, not seeing any team members. Turning a bit, you saw they were staggering to the door, struggling with being upside down in the train car. You waved your hand weakly and one ran to you, unbuckling you and helping you down. You glanced around and by some miracle, your bag had stayed nearby the whole time. Slinging it across your body, you went to the exit as quickly as you could manage.

They had all run ahead and you stumbled, landing in the rubble. They turned and waited and after not seeing you, ran down the tracks, heading back to Bridgehead. Your knees were too weak to stand, your hands shook and so you curled in on yourself, drawing them to your chest. Sounds raged around you. The smell of smoke. Shouting in a foreign language somewhere behind you. A shadow fell over your eyes and you opened them slightly. “Miles?”

The person leaned closer and you saw it was one of the Na’vi tribe you had heard of. The clan that Jake Sully had joined. Weakly, you turned back and stayed curled up. They could kill you. Or leave you. It didn’t really matter at this point. You weren’t going back. Strong hands scooped under you and threw you over a shoulder. Your eyes popped open, but the raging light from above forced you to close them. Blood seeped from a cut across your stomach and lightheaded, you passed out.

~~~

When you woke up a bit later, your mask wasn’t on. You grabbed at your face and patted around you, holding your breath and then sat up quickly. Your head swam and hands moved to your shoulders, gently pushing you back down.

“Hey, hey it’s okay. Just rest. The train shook you around a lot. It’s alright.”

“Who are you? Where am I?” You mumbled.

“My name is Max. You’re with the Omaticaya.”

Manmeet headcanons coz yes

( @ezs-diary thanks to you now I can't stop thinking about Girl Krishna™ trope)

She's a punjabi kudi who's literally Geet's twin (OFC?) and has all the iconic romcom movies and dialogues memorized. Despite her bubbly, chaotic side she has a strange calming charm to her when she doesn't even need her sweet honey words to draw people in. Og srk fangirl, loves all genres of music, especially upbeat and lyricals, adores animals, fav season: spring.

Radhya: likes ghazals, lofi music, meera ke bhajan, secretly watches romantic movies (especially tragedies) and cries in her room, Manmeet finds her and Radhya would expect that she'd laugh at her but she'd just kiss her tears away, Radhya would push her away at that but secretly blush so hard, she lives in Manmeet's colony who secretly follows her everywhere, especially on shopping (even for the grocery) "WHAT are YOU doing here?" Radhya takes her to the side on the street, whispering urgently.

"Wouldn't you like me by your side always? Am I not good company?? :(" Manmeet with puppy eyes and sniffs "Ok.. if you don't want me then I will go-"

Radhya catches her wrist, looks away, then at her and sighs "It's- it's not that. It's just-"

Manmeet smiles, twisting her trapped wrist softly and wrapping its fingers around Radhya's and asks in the most innocent voice "Then what is it? Just say it hehe!"

Radhya groans, looks away and scratches her neck "Fine, you're fine."

Manmeet blinks her eyes "I couldn't hear that.. what?"

"I DO LIKE YOU."

Manmeet jumps and shrieks. Radhya going red and holding her down "Shh, what ARE YOU DOING NOW? Everyone will look at you, fool."

"LET THEM! LET THE WORLD KNOW YOU LOVE ME WOOHOOO!," Manmeet gets out of her hold "I am a fool but I'm a fool for YOUUU."

Radhya facepalms, secretly smiling.

At night, Manmeet slips by to kiss her goodnight and Radhya would be tired. She yawns and Manmeet grins "Long day?", coming to her while rubbing something in her palms "Champi time!"

Radhya would get her head and shoulder massaged and yawn again.

"You should sleep."

"Yes, I'm exhausted but I'm unable to fall asleep for some reason." Radhya grumbles and then looks over at Manmeet, smiling faintly "Kuch sunaa do?"

Manmeet beams "KYU NAHI-" clearing her throat. Suddenly, Radhya would settle herself on Manmeet's lap and close her eyes - making Manmeet blush this time before continuing. She'd hum at first building a light, dreamy tune and it'd take everything for Radhya not to dance even though the rhythm was so slow so she'd instead tap her fingers against Manmeet's thighs along with the tune, making Manmeet's breath catch and making it difficult to even begin singing now so she'd take out her flute and start playing it. Within a minute, Radhya stills into a rhythmic composure, her head buried deep and face completely hidden away in Manmeet's lap, snoring lightly. Manmeet smiles at that and kisses her forehead, pulling up the blankets on her and turning off the lights

With Vaidarbhi: loves art and poetry, analyzes controversial cinema and drama and is a sucker for old school romance, comfort movie is Shahid and Amrita's Vivah, writes secret love letters to Manmeet but delivers it herself by saying

"My brother sent this for you."

Manmeet smiles, nodding and opening it "I confess I do have an effect on people but I'm not sure your brother is one of them."

Vaidarbhi nods back, looking at the ground, turning around to leave.

"Vaidu!" Manmeet calls out

Vaidarbhi's heart skips a beat as she turns around in an instant

"Just wanna say that.. never be afraid of anything, sweetheart. I'm always with you." Manmeet winks

On the day she was getting forcibly married, her heart echoed back these words of the love of her life to her and she wrote a final love letter, revealing her true identity at last.

On the mandap just as she was taking the last phera, someone whistles loudly and calles out her name. Vaidarbhi immediately recognizes the voice and makes a run for it. Suddenly, the groom stands up and horror etches itself on Vaidarbhi. But he tears down his disguise to reveal Halveer, Manmeet's brother. "GO! I'LL TAKE CARE OF THEM." as he plunges into the crowd going wild around them.

Manmeet revs the engine of her bike as Vaidarbhi jumps on the seat behind her, crying happily and clutching her waist tightly from behind.

With Parth: he loves sports, Shreya Ghoshal and old Bollywood, meets with Manmeet regularly in the gym.

"Nice to see you here! But Mann.. you don't gym?" Parth shakes his head, his hair wet with sweat swaying in the process

"I come here for you, handsome." Manmeet whispers in his ears and giggles, knocking Parth out of his senses and freezing him as usual.

She pulls his cheeks aggressively and tightens her grip on his shoulder, trickling her hand downwards and squeezing his biceps. "Do pushups."

Parth is merely able to nod and takes his position. Suddenly, Manmeet jumps on him, almost breaking his bone.

"AAAOOOWW" he screams

"Now do it!" Manmeet says as if nothing happened

Parth smiles, suddenly forgetting all about his pain and does as he's ordered. He starts off and keeps on doing it on super speed like a machine. After dizziness strikes through, Manmeet steps up wobbling and smiles nervously, patting his head "Good boy!"

Pelipper mail! An Amrita soda with a sticky note that reads "Hope it's not too warm -Ren"

-@chaos-cousins

Thank you! You’re a lifesaver, quite literally.

That… appeared to help a little? I think their fever’s gone down, and they seem to be doing a little better, but I’m not too sure to be honest. I’m going to assume that it either takes a while for the soda to fully take effect, for Kalani to just… naturally recover, or a combination of the earlier two.

I mean… the prolonged exposure with no real treatment beforehand probably didn’t help with their current condition.

Kalani’s mumbling something about bonds and links… I’m a little worried…

3, 4, 8, and 11 for the book asks! also i hope you feel better soon sending love 💗

thank you!! 💗 i'm already on the mend thankfully and appreciate the nice distraction!

what were your top five books of the year? i think... the lights by ben lerner, amrita by banana yoshimoto, cassandra at the wedding by dorothy baker, from from by monica youn, and the wall by marlen haushofer!

did you discover any new authors that you love this year? this summer i decided to try elena ferrante and then i looked up 5 minutes later and i had read all of the neapolitan novels plus the lying life of adults. my platonic ideal of summer reading, so sensuous and absorbing. i only stopped because i realized i need to ration some of her books for next year.

did you meet any of your reading goals? which ones? yes! i did the sealey challenge where you read 31 books of poetry in 31 days. i've also read >100 books total (the 31 poetry collections really helps) which was loosely a goal of mine.

what was your favorite book that has been out for a while, but you just now read? thinking about older books in particular, i'm about to finish ex-wife by ursula parrott which has really blown me away. it's a jazz age novel about a mid-20s divorcee who is sort of like if you put various women from mad men in a blender and also made her a flapper... the more i read it, the more i feel like i need a gin fizz and a fur coat 🍸

I have no idea whether I sent this ask to you or another person by mistake so I’ll try again, sorry if this ends up a repeat ask. Do you happen to know the cultural inspirations behind the Black Dragon laguz? Thank you!

Nope! Haven't gotten this ask before. The short answer is: Maybe a little bit, however, we are probably better off for not having any firm answers.

The easiest place to start is the names. I've seen a lot of people say that the black dragons have a lot of South Asian/Indian influences in regards to names. For example, Almedha’s name in Japanese is Amrita, which is a Sanskrit name meaning immortality (Almedha seems to be similar to a Spanish name, Almeda, seemingly derived from an Arabic word for "the city"). Rajaion and Kurthnaga seem to have some influence from Indian languages as well. Raja coming from a Sanskrit word and means king or ruler and Naga being a creature in Hindu mythology (Kurth is a Germanic name, but both Kurth and Naga come from prior entries in the series).

However, Dheginsea doesn't seem to have the same influence to his name (a very clever redditor pointed out that his Japanese name, Dheginhansea, seems to be a combination of Degwin, from Gundam, and Hanse, which is Germanic.) If you're curious, Nasir is an Arabic name meaning helper or "one who gives victory," Ena is derived from an Irish Gaelic name meaning ardent or "little fire" while Gareth is a Welsh name meaning "gentle" that is from Arthurian mythology, one of the knights of the round (Gawain was also a knight of the round).

Culturally, however, Goldoa’s isolationism set into place by Dheginsea is more reminiscent of Edo Japan or other nations than India. Also of note, Kurthnaga’s host oriented hospitality speech in Path of Radiance feels very reminiscent of Ancient Greece to me off the top of my head, and as it conflicts with Ike's more guest oriented view of hospitality in the story, by confusing him a little, that could either be a real cultural difference between Goldoa and Crimea, or just Kurthnaga trying to justify his actions. (Of course, more cultures may also match what Kurthnaga said than Ancient Greece. I'm just not as familiar with them.)

As for clothes, as much as the short shorts and mini skirts seen in the Tellius games can relate to historical clothes, Dheginsea, Rajaion, Gareth, and Kurthnaga seem to be more generic European fantasy (tunics, boots, leggings), while Ena's outfit appears to have a far more Eastern Asian influence than the other dragons. We never see what Almedha wore before becoming the dowager queen of Daein, so I don't know if that's the norm.

Architecturally, I have no idea. The only shot we get of Goldoan Architecture is this of the capital city in Radiant Dawn and I have no idea what it may be similar to.

All this to say that while you can make a case for South Asian/Indian inspiration for the three siblings in the royal dragon family, I'm not comfortable saying that for a fact, especially given Dheginsea's name not having a remotely similar etymology to his children. And, given how the developers of Fire Emblem have handled their depiction of "fantasy Europe," it likely wouldn't have been a 1 to 1 coding for the culture of "fantasy India" if we saw more of it in the game, moreso a very concerning blend of multiple cultures with a medieval European wash on top of it.

Class of Heroes - Reshmabela

Reshma - Isabela

The eldest child of the Legharis, an Indian family who uses their magical powers to help their community. She was blessed with the power to create plants, meaning she has quite the green thumb.

Reshma feels lots of pressure to succeed from her Amrita, something that causes her to stress out and lose control of her powers. It’s thanks to her parents, siblings, and friends that she is able to regain her composure.

Her best friends are Mylene, Ondine, who share her passion for saving the environment, and she contributes to their charities.

Though her youngest sister, Mithra, does not have powers, she ignores her Amrita’s discouragement and has a wonderful relationship with her. She helps Mithra when she’s being criticized by defending her, letting everyone know that it shouldn’t matter if she has a gift or not, as long as she’s helping people.

What she makes with her powers depends on her mood. If she’s happy, roses will appear, if she’s angry, then thorns and vines pop up.

She’s so sick of pretty, she wants something true. Reshma’s definitely a more comforting version of Isabella, but still deals with a boatload of stress. You can check her out in Weeby’s Class of Heroes. As usual, reblog, reply, post and ask to share the content. @artzychic27 @msweebyness

Trystan Thorne x MC: Stay

Request: a dialogue prompt for Trystan x mc ❤️❤️: "It was nice... not sleeping alone." I can’t wait to see what you come up with!

Warnings: Fluff with a bit of angst

Tags: @kulaykape @ikingsley @remnantsofthepast-if @loyalshrimpfan @barnibumblr @loyalshrimp @alleycat97 @blaine-hayes @swimmingshoebakerydreamer @luthorsxrojas @darlingnikki-prince

Author’s Notes: This is an anonymous request. Hopefully, it’s okay because it’s been a while since I’ve written. BUT I JUST LOVE MY TRYSTAN- Might edit this later, it was pretty rushed. But I just wanted to get this idea out. It's pretty short.

“Trystan! What are you doing?!”

The building crumbled around them, fire consuming everything in its path.

“I came back for you.”

Trystan throws her arm around her shoulders as Amrita forces herself to stay awake.

“Amrita! Stay with me..”

Trystan’s voice fades as she loses consciousness.

*A few hours later*

Amrita gains consciousness. She examines the hospital room before she spots Trystan asleep—her hand in hers with her head resting over the linked pair on the bed.

“Trystan?”

Trystan begins to stir, her tired eyes widening at the sight of Amrita.

“Amrita! How do you feel?”

“Sore but I’ll live.”

They take a moment to soak each other in, the feeling of constant adrenaline from the case is gone.

“So what happens now? Are you going to stay in New York or travel again?”

Trystan drops her head back onto the bed with a grunt.

“I’m not sure. I have to start thinking about it but..”

“But..?”

“You know, we make a great partner duo. You have the serious vibe and I bring in the charm to save the day.”

Trystan chuckles when Amrita rolls her eyes but they break into giggles before locking eyes.

“Stay with me, Trystan.”

Trystan’s breath hitched at the unexpected request.

“We can convince Mafalda and be partners. Stay here.”

“Okay.”

“Woah, the great Trystan Thorne agreed to just like that, huh?”

“For you? Yes, you’re worth it. Plus, it was nice..not sleeping alone.”

Amrita pat the spot next to her on the bed and shuffled as much as she can for Trystan to squeeze into the small bed.

“Thank you.”

“No. Thank you, Amrita.”

With that, Trystan and Amrita fell into a slumber holding each other.

WIP Wednesday

Thank you to @racfoam for the tag 💕 This is something I wrote at work for tabula rasa that I'm not sure is going to end up in the final draft, so this is a good chance to share it :))

It had already been dead, the first one.

He’d found the body by chance, following a steady stream of scavengers down to the ocean bed, like it had just laid down on the soft sand and never arisen again. He remembers he’d been frustrated, more than anything, that he’d missed the funeral – for he was certain that the tulkun, intelligent, religious beings that they were, would hold a funeral for one of their own. But such a well-preserved specimen was a gift, and he’d been near giddy as he’d contacted the lab to request a larger boat to recover the carcass.

The creature had been elderly – carbon-dating was a little different on Pandora, but it still worked, and the tulkun had been over two hundred years old. He’d wanted to do the entire autopsy by himself, but the RDA couldn’t afford to have him taking up their largest industrial cooler for that long – not if there wasn’t anything in it for them, anyway – and he’d been content enough that he’d be the one in charge.

When he was a boy, his father used to say that regret was a useless emotion. Ian still feels it every day.

He doesn’t know if he could’ve hidden the amrita’s properties from the RDA leadership, and he never will; Dr Adams, his chief assistant, copied in the top brass on their findings before Ian had even realised what those findings actually meant, and then it was too late. He’s still haunted by that conversation with the general, the only one they’ve ever shared: how many specimens like this can you bring us? she’d asked, gaze as sharp as glass shards, and Ian, the smartest person in damn near every room he’s ever been in, didn’t catch the trap until he’d stepped right in it.

Not many. Finding this one was a near-miracle, he’d said like a fool. Usually, the scavengers would have consumed everything, even the bones.

I see, she’d said, and sent him out.

And then the hunting had begun. When he was a young man, Ian had fancied himself a force for good – learning all he could about the oceans on Earth and Pandora both, developing that knowledge, passing it on to the next generation. He’d spent hours walking a groove into his apartment floor, Morgan heavy in his arms, telling her all about the incredible creatures that lived in the deep until she fell asleep.

You’ll give her nightmares, Kay had said. As far as he knew, he never had. Morgan hadn’t loved the sea like he’d loved it, but it had still been the part of him he’d shared the most with her: daddy-daughter days out to the local aquarium, a few days in the summer spent by one of the few protected beaches that remained on Earth, weekly swimming classes they couldn’t really afford at a pool too far away to be convenient...

It hurts, thinking of her. It’s been hurting for twenty years now, but the pain is new again when he sees calf after calf after calf crying, butting helplessly at their dead mother’s corpse. It’s better than the alternative, he tells himself. It’s better the parent goes first. It’s better.

Whumptober Day 12: Rumor Has It

Written for the Whumptober Day 12 prompt: Red

There’s something wrong with Mementos today.

Akira can’t really explain it. Everything seems sharper. The reds are redder, the lights are pulsing harder, and the entire place feels like it’s about to pounce on them.

…Maybe he’s been spending too much time with Fox.

“Is something going on today?” he asks.

“I don’t think so,” Queen says. “No one’s been complaining about allergies or anything.”

“Only buzz I’ve seen online are like, spooky season stuff,” Oracle says. “You know, lots of rumors about ghosts and weird stuff.”

“I’ve heard a lot of those too,” Panther says, “I dunno if that’d really affect Mementos though.”

“You’re the leader Joker,” Morgana says. “If you say something’s off, we can go.”

Akira thinks. It could very well just be his nerves, and these requests are pretty urgent. Then again, it’s not good to take too many risks when it comes to Mementos. The Metaverse is as mercurial as the populace that formed it, who knows what could affect it.

“Let’s spend some time scoping our floors with weaker shadows,” he says. “That should tell us if there’s something we should be worried about.”

They pack up into the Mona van, and a few shadows in he’s convinced the bad feeling was just nerves. The shadows are acting completely normal, and the team takes them down easily.

He’s about to decide they should go back when one group of shadows they run into includes a shadow he’s never seen before.

“Oracle, what is that?” he asks.

“Uh, it looks like a Lilim?” Oracle says.

“But… it’s green,” Fox says.

“That’s what you focus on? Not the weird bat head?” Panther sighs.

“Whatever, let’s just ask,” Joker says. He pulls out his gun and shoots at the weird Lilim, but it isn’t knocked down. “Not weak to that anymore?” Joker mutters.

“I’m on it!” Morgana says, casting Garula on the shadow, but that doesn’t knock it down either.

“Would it kill these things to be consistent?” Skull mutters.

Suddenly, the Lilim casts a spell Joker doesn’t recognize and… explodes into smoke?

“Did it just knock itself out?” Noir asks.

“But it didn’t even do anything,” Queen says. “That’s weird, why—”

Suddenly Queen’s hit with a psiodyne.

That Akira cast.

“Joker?! What are you doing?” Noir gasps, and Akira wants to say he doesn’t know.

He’s felt the power of dozens of Personas flow through him before, but this feels wrong. Something has forced his way into his body and is making him move.

“Is he brainwashed?” Queen coughs, still dizzy from his hit.

No, he isn’t. Being brainwashed feels terrible in its own right, but that’s in hindsight. That’s in realizing that what you thought you were doing wasn’t what was actually going on. But you’re not aware of it at the time.

This is a front row seat to someone else using his body, forcing his lips to curl as he attacks his friends, forcing him to call upon the multitude of selves within him and fire off attack after attack.

In short: it’s violating. He’s never felt so powerless.

Something forces itself through him, a spell he doesn’t know currently, and suddenly a Garula heads straight for Skull, though Mona pushes him out of the way.

“It’s the Lilim!” Oracle says. “It’s possessing him or something!”

“How do we fix it?” Haru gasps, “Amrita drop isn’t working!”

“Neither is Me Patra!” Mona says.

“Then we’ll just have to knock him out,” Queen says, pulling herself up.

Please, please knock me out, Akira thinks.

“Panther, go for Agidyne!”

Kumbhanda is forced out of Akira to take the hit, and Haru hits him with her own Psio skill.

Despite not being in control, he feels every bit of pain and is so thankful when it overwhelms him and he succumbs to darkness.

.

..

.

“Recarm!”

Akira sits up immediately and breathes a sigh of relief that he’s in control of his own body again. “Thank goodness,” he says. “Queen, are you alright?”

“None the worse for wear,” she says. “You?”

“I feel like I need a shower. Or an exorcism, or both,” Akira says. “Either way, let’s get out of here.”

Everyone nods in agreement. Ann takes the wheel since neither Akira or Makoto are really in a state to drive, and they can’t get out of there soon enough.

Akira shudders at the thought of what just happened. He doesn’t think he’ll be able to sleep tonight.

U know Kara killing the Sleeper is even more tragic if u realize that they were best friends in their first lives。 Karna and Suyodhana….

althoufh considering the stress Kara went through…

gettinf rejected, finding out who her mother is, realizing that she been lied to, and having to exhaust herself to find the Amrita, and…. Well she was a fuse ready to blow.

she had to pay the consequences but I think it was best for her than staying with sisters whose trust she broke.

although her betrayal was inevitable… thank to that prophecy.

While the prophecy may have been slightly responsible (but I’ve always been a low-key prophecy hater), I feel like the main thing that pushed her to that was the fact she is human.

Suyodhana was the only person she could trust in this life. He was her father for such a long time, and, and, while she knew that what he was doing was wrong, she trusted him. When he made the grand entrance to Aru’s party, she found out, at that very moment, that Aru’s mom was her mom. She was forced to choose between her father who she built a relationship of trust with, and her mother who she believed abandoned her (in her eyes. We, as the readers know it’s the exact opposite, but she only just met Krithik). It’s like, as you said, her feelings of betrayal pushed her to that point.

Morals meant nothing to her at that moment; trust did.

(I’m doing a really bad job of explaining 😭. This doesn’t mean I dislike Krithika or Suyodhana or am, in any shape or form, blaming either of them. I’m just trying to explain what I think Kara’s thought process was.)

And, when Kara found out that the Sleeper took her from her home, I respected her so much for not just rolling into a ball and crying. Girl needs a hug. She needs a lot of hugs.

#Aru shah #the pandava quintet #kara shah #krithika shah #suyodhana #I need a hug after reading the ending of NOI and CoD #Bro Kara’s scenes are just so #*sobs*#Suyodhana deserves so many hugs #And like #love #Dang it #can we just make all the Aru Shah characters after happy #Like #hugs and cookies for all of them
