How do you think the forest god bois (Im sorry i just love them) would react to their darling wife being stolen from them?
Please don't apologise. I love them too
Sans: This particular Forest God's rage is cold. It's damp, dark... it's eyes in the woods, it's the dooming feeling of being lost with no hope, a mould that rots you from the inside out. Kidnapping your potential partner may be commonplace among the Fae, but man... stealing a Forest God's wife is one step away from just outright cursing your own name forever. No punishment is too gratuitous.
The only hope for her kidnapper(s) is that she's back in Sans' arms quickly, and she intercedes on their behalf. If her return is fast he may have enough presence of mind to make the death quick. If not... well. If he thinks her seeing might make her too upset, he isn't above tucking her into a comfortable dream.
Once he's done, he's going to need a few days of cuddling. It's best she doesn't ask what happened to them. Their voices will echo through the darkest parts of the woods for many, many more centuries to come.
Red: Red wants to be human. He always tries so hard to be more human, surrounding himself with objects and trinkets of that world, learning their languages and lives and tempers. He craves humanity- that possible version of him, that could have people by his side forever, and by God standards he's very attuned to them. But someone taking his wife- it definitely brings out the Old Fae within him. The darkness, the possessiveness, the lack of empathy. And the wrath.
Some small part of him wants to be merciful, to prove to himself (and to her) that he can act like her kin.
... At the end of the day, however, he's not a human. Nothing will change that. A hoard of birds and bugs make short work of a face; and even when he sees the terror in her expression at what happened to her kidnappers, he can barely find the energy to even pretend to care for their deaths.
Skull: He was starting to be nicer to humans, you know. He'd let so many people through his bog untouched. His beloved's presence in his life was dampening the age-old flames of hatred... perhaps humans aren't all bad. She's so wonderful, after all, maybe the ones who hurt him long ago are gone now, and things are better. Maybe he can start to figure out how to let that hatred rest. Maybe he can start to figure out how he can rest.
... Then she gets stolen. And it all comes back. First his forest, now the only one who ever broke through his loneliness, all humans do is take the things he loves most. Her kindness, her love, she's the exception- an exception to a rule he despises.
He lives in... difficult terrain. Without his blessing, it's impossible for any would-be kidnappers to get very far away. Skull doesn't need to strain himself to catch up. While he's chasing, he has a lot of time to ponder what he's going to do to them.
There are many terrifying, painful, prolonged ways to die in a bog, after all.

We're back - and with a friend! @aliboo joins @violettduchess and myself as we review the first set of Antares' new route!
#1 - Favorite line in set
aliboo: "How embarrassing for you that such an 'incompetent mercenary' has already tripped you up so much." - I'm 100% here for MC asserting her dominance early on.
aqua: (How long has it been since anyone has held my interest this way?) said by Alien!MC - Truer words haven't been said, MC. How long has it been since I cared about someone in this game? Please don't answer that question
Violet: (I know where I stand with Antares: directly in his way.) said by Alien!MC
#2 - Favorite scene/moment
aliboo: That part in episode 3 where Antares and MC get conveniently tangled together and wrestle themselves away from each other... the combination of sexual tension and humour was 😘👌
aqua: When Keda broke MC out of jail. Not only did we get to see first hand MC in action, and how stubborn she is when she refused to leave because she had to "scrub the system" of her bogus arrest. We also saw what a strong and reliable ally/friend Keda is to MC, and I hope we get to see some more of this throughout the season.
Violet: I loved the moment when they naturally fell into the "good cop/bad cop" roleplay together without missing a beat.
#3 - Did you buy hearts? Which scene(s)? Worth it?
aliboo: I bought them all. All worth it. #1 for the UST, #2 for the extra glimpse of Antares' character, #3 for the shenanigans.
aqua: Yes, all of them. And they were all worth it. The third one stood out the most to me and was the most fun.
Violet: all of them and yes they totally were
#4 - Standout character
aliboo: MC - an amazing confident protag whilst still very relatable; the kind of character that has all the best lines you could only wish to have to hand.
aqua: Antares' billowing cape. It just shows how extra he is, he shows up in this very gritty spaceport, and his cape is flapping everywhere. With all the fighting, I am amazed it made it out in one piece.
Violet: Antares. He is EXACTLY as I hoped he would be: arrogant, intelligent, commanding, sexy as all hell.
#5 - Thoughts on the CG?
aliboo: I love it. A nod to the original but more sexy.
aqua: Great cg! I love how it mirrors the first cg, but you can see how the artwork has vastly improved.
Violet: I really liked it!!
#6 - Fave screenshot
Tumblr media
aliboo: I clocked up 303 screenshots during his first 3 episodes and I'm expected to pick 1? I chose this one mainly because I love the artwork and it's an indication of his route direction - and that silhouette is the closest we get to Antares sans helmet so far!
Tumblr media
aqua: What can I say, I love mini cgs.
Tumblr media
Violet: It's a perfect marriage of line and sprite
#7 - Secondary character shining moment.
aliboo: Keda! I didn't warm to her in other Alien!SP routes but she did make me smile in this one... "even your number one money launderer has to admit, there are a few things an attractive partner can do for you that credits can't"
aqua: Keda breaking MC out of jail and then later sharing a drink with her. I hope we get to see more of this friendship.
Violet: I liked the soldier who got hurt. Because of them, MC was allowed to see Antares as the leader who leaves no man behind and that was an important moment.
#8 - Thoughts on the villain.
aliboo: No identifiable big bad so far... we don't know Psyri's story so I'm not counting them. The conflict in the first 3 episodes is between Antares and MC. I think later it will be someone representing The Union.
aqua: I don't see a clear cut villain...yet. I'm leaning towards thinking the Union will somehow end up being the big bad somehow, as they've proven themselves route after route to be vile.
Violet: Psyri? Is she a villain? Aside from being slippery and getting away constantly, I am not really sure what to think of her
#9 - Most OMG scene?
aliboo: I want to give a shout to the scene where Psyri escapes captivity, shooting an Empire soldier in the process, and Antares is witnessed to show compassion for the fallen soldier. I felt MC's surprise and changed perception of him.
aqua: The scene towards the end of the third episode when Antares relays his orders to Corvus (He's alive and on the ship!) thus betraying MC. A wonderful scene all around.
Violet: When Antares pressed MC against the wall, body to body, and my heart stopped beating for a few seconds.
#10 - Any predictions for next week?
aliboo: We know she's gonna stow away on his ship.. this is less of a prediction, more of a wish... I really hope Corvus discovers her and helps to keep her hidden for a little while at least.
aqua: I'd like to see more scenes with Keda, maybe helping her out again and causing some shenanigans. Excellent idea with Corvus helping MC, more shenanigans ensue!
Violet: She is gonna stowaway on his ship....and he's going to catch her and there is going to be some AMAZING dialogue. And hopefully more body pressing.
