✦ Cataclysm ✦
tags: medkit/reader, scythe/reader, the broker/reader, vine staff/reader & more as the fic updates!!
Everyday of every week of every month and every year, you go out into the barren streets and outside markets of the Lost Temple, snatching anything you can find and bolting before the merchants could catch you. Over time, you grew more and more confident in your thieving capabilities and bite off more than you can chew, and mess with the wrong person at the wrong time, and only when the consequences of your actions corner you, do you realize that you’re, without a doubt, royally screwed.
CHAPTER FIVE OUT NOW!!

was a little baffled as to why adrien is less careful about using cataclysm on people now after being so horrified when he accidentally hit monarch but like... as far as he knows, it's been weeks and monarch is still kicking. iirc the only time he's seen monarch since was in deflagration and he seemed just fine then, so adrien really doesn't have any reason to think it's not a survivable injury that just hurts like a bitch

Arlecchino's whole deal is unbelievable
Arlecchino: Huh I wonder what's causing my weird powers? I can't really worry about that right now tho, I've gotta become King and then kill my "Mother".
*Kills Clervie and "Mother"*
Arlecchino: Huh I wonder why I was able to defeat a Fatui Harbinger when I'm like 17 or so? I can't really worry about that right now tho, I've gotta be in jail and become a Harbinger.
*Is in jail for a while and becomes a Harbinger*
Arlecchino: Huh I wonder why I am-
Pierro: Hey what's up hello, anyways you're descended from the Crimson Moon Dynasty of Khaenri'ah. I'm sure that this is a lot for you to take in so-
Arlecchino: Ok.
Pierro: ...You're just cool with that?
Arlecchino: IDK maybe? I can't really worry about that at the moment, I'm a father now. This orphanage full of children I love (who also are child soldiers and are not allowed to leave or else I'll execute them except maybe now I'm just gonna wipe their memories IDK I'm morally complex) isn't gonna run itself.
*Runs the orphanage/spy recruitment initiative*
Me, the fucking player: WHAT DO YOU MEAN YOU ARE KHAENRI'AN? WHY WASN'T THIS BROUGHT UP IN YOUR FUCKING QUEST?? OR ANYTHING ELSE????
Arlecchino, talking to me through my phone: I honestly don't know why you care, I'm too busy to give a shit. Anyways, I'm gonna go fight fate itself I guess. I'm sure that I don't share any thematic parallels with any other Khaenri'an characters (particularly as it relates to acting and family angst) and that I haven't made the idea of 'curses' on Khaenri'ans and what they entail even more complicated than they already were. See ya.

Okay but like. Two things about the volume 8 statue [redacted] chapter.
Firstly. By god no amount of "yeah it was unhinged" comments on this website prepared me for whatever the fuck that was. I need at least 5 business days to process.
Second, was I the only one who read that scene as:
Hua Cheng, teeming with self-satisfaction to see Mu Qing near writhing with scorned disgust and fury: this was a 100% successful trip
Xie Lian: our statues are fucking in Mu Qing's palace oh god oh fuck what do you m e a n successful
Hua Cheng, smirk getting even bigger: this was a 100% successful trip

Do you think all that shit would've happened if Tim wasn't Robin or was he unintentionally a sort of catalyst

i have a friend at school who plays genshin (he'd stopped playing right when inazuma came out but has been getting into it again recently because of me) and it's so. baffling. to me. that he doesn't know jack shit about the lore. i was distantly aware that there are people who play the game just to see the big damage numbers and grind on domains and who only know very basic details about the story but i'd never actually met one. how does he even live like this

Wonder what the political climate in Whitetower post-book 1 is like since we’ve just kind of inadvertently made a succession crisis cause the heir’s dead and the spare murdered said heir in a corruptive blood sacrifice to enter the realm of shadow like where do we go from here lol
