not all facts about reader may apply to you. i tried to keep it vague enough so you can insert yourself into the story, but writing a character requires knowing their personality, so it is impossible for this to fit everyone.

chapter 2.5: an interlude in logan’s pov

chapter 3: in which you and logan share your first kiss

Look Outside Posting Part 5.5

Something fishy is going on around here. Hold onto your asses, this is going to be my most earth-shattering theory yet.

The blue people are few, but they are present just about everywhere, and they're unmistakable when they're still human. Papineau. Xaria. Jeanne. Possibly Mutt (who's bluer in his overworld sprite). A suspicious number of blue mutants.

I don't think this can be wholly attributed to lighting or artstyle. The lighting is a little bluer in the hallway, for instance, but people who aren't blue are still not blue there when the door is opened. In the overworld, blue party members are still that color. The difference is pretty stark in the scenes where blue and nonblue people are side by side.

Take Claire as an example - she's partially blue, found in the same place as Jean-Pierre, and her not-blue patches are the same tone as him, but he isn't blue in the slightest.

What's more, it can't be a Visitor thing at all. Papineau and Xaria are not witnesses. Everybody finds it totally unremarkable and not worth commenting on - except, crucially, for Roaches, who sees fit to call Papineau "bIG BluE mAN". They can all see it, it's just NORMAL.

Okay. People can just be blue in Look Outside world. Why not? I mean, the astronomers have pretty unusual eye colors. It's just a thing that happens, I guess.

......but like, why?

I'm sure we can figure this out. Let's see now...

Blue skin is not unheard of in the real world, though it's waaay less common than "multiple normalized instances per apartment building".

The first way this has been known to happen is methemoglobinemia, a condition that's famously associated with the Blue Fugates, a Kentucky family from the 1800s who carried multiple copies of the gene for it.

With this condition, you produce a lot of methemoglobin - a faulty version of hemoglobin that incorporates iron ions in a different state than they're supposed to be, making it unable to bind to oxygen and do its job. The blood of someone with high methemoglobin is brownish, and the skin can take on a blue tone. Levels higher than that also cause adverse symptoms like headaches, seizures, and poor coordination.

This is unlikely to be the culprit, though. The last "blue" Fugate ceased to be blue in the 1900s, as by then they weren't as isolated and were getting medical care that cleared up their symptoms. Even if the gene was extremely common in Look Outside, the medication that treats it is readily available. The striking blue skin tone also seems to mostly happen with white people, and it wouldn't look anywhere near as noticeable with the majority POC residents of the apartment.

The other real-world possibility is something like argyria.

Pictured here is Paul Karason, a man best known for his extensive use of colloidal silver, an alternative medicine, in the belief that it treated a variety of health conditions. He's the most famous example of this condition, having taken it for about two decades.

Silver compounds are pretty harmless as far as we know, but taking them long-term causes them to be built up in deposits in the skin, gradually shifting it to a blue-grey.

It being a common individual choice in the setting would make some sense, and the gradual build-up would explain why some like Claire and Papineau aren't totally blue yet. (It might also mean Monty has it too, as he's sort of mildly bluish-grey?) Depending on the cultural context for it, I could see that being something Papineau would do as a traditional thing or for similar "health" reasons, and Xaria and Monty might do as a counterculture thing.

I don't think we have enough to say it's this one specific substance, of course. The shade doesn't really match exactly, Xaria is awfully young to have been taking colloidal silver for years, and I don't think there's any other signs that Look Outside was some kind of alternate timeline prior to the cataclysm.

But I do think the mechanism, normalized use of some substance that builds up in the skin, goes some way toward a possible explanation here.

patch 5.5 reunion

I think this kind of postscript is the most elegant method for giving some additional character context to understand the scene, but when drawing moments of catharsis like this it feels a little bit like cheating. like, there's totally a bunch of buildup here guys, just trust me on this one. oh well, such is the nature of the final fantasy fourteen original character industrial complex.

Rating hazbin ships, but im not gonna be on rating my favorite ships higher. Im gonna be brutally honest:

Vaggie/charlie: I love it so much its so sweet, and they did have a rough patch a bit, but they communicated, and communication matters so much. 10/10

Angel/husk: I love how it shows husk waits on angel for consent to touch him. And I like how husk is honest and tells Angel really no one cares if he's famous or not he's a human, and he doesn't need to be perfect. This ship isn't bad. I just wanna see Husk have a mental breakdown like an angel and talk about his contract with alastor. 8/10

Lucifer/lilith: honestly? I really want them to have a happy relationship. But if she's just like adam cause their equals and she got rid of charlie and lucifer having a relationship by some weird evil idea? I can't stand that. So 5.5/10

Sir pentious/cherri bomb: I don't know I mean cherri had no damn care about sir pentious until she found out he had two dicks. Idk 7/10

Lucifer/alastor:alastor kinda a dick and lucifer kind hates him. And they both the type to accidently lock their kids In their cars. But lucifer would break the car door to get his kid, and the alastor would look the other way, but it's a good crackship. 6.9/10

Adam/lucifer: realistically? Lucifer would beat adam for touching his daughter if he could again. 5.6/10

Valentino/angel:...-10000000000000000/10 I hate it so much.

He would tell them how it was. 

As a manager, he was used to settling cases and convincing people he was right. So contrary to what his lawyer had advised him, he would argue his own case in court. 

Although he did otherwise wear a tight suit in board meetings instead of these jail pajamas he had had on his body for three weeks since his arrest for attempted bribery, he was confident of his case. 

Soon he would be allowed to take off his uniform and kick the orange slides off his feet, and like a free man he could once again choose what to wear. Unfortunately for him, things turned out completely differently. 

After he made a fool of himself and the judge undercut all his arguments, he retreated to the back of the courtroom. 

Meanwhile, his lawyer tried to patch up the pieces. But the harm had already been done. As tears rolled down his cheeks, he prayed for a happy ending, then humbly and dejectedly stood beside his lawyer to hear the verdict.

That was harsh: 5.5 years of incarceration in a low-security prison. He could not believe that he would lose his freedom for so long and have to obey day after day. No privacy, living in dirty conditions, among other prisoners.... During the ride back to the local jail - from where he would be escorted to the state prison the following day - he had cried the entire ride. Nor could he hide that when he was photographed again for the adjustment of his criminal record: from suspect to convict.

5.5 is a filler patch it seems, meaning 5.6 CANNOT be a filler patch, meaning Capitano's return might actually happen in 5.6!
