Tumblr media
Thank you, thank you Sparks. It's been a long time coming, but we are finally done with this first arc on this blog. Which means; it's time for our very first:
ARC OVERVIEW!
Now what is an "Arc Overview", I hear you ask. An Arc Overview is where I give you the general rundown of everything in this arc; things I liked doings, things I didn't like, maybe some fun facts of things that didn't make it in, etc. With all of that out of the way, let's take dive i to the "Jabberwock Island Arc Overview"!
....
........
...............
Tumblr media
Really? You all made it and stuck with me through this thing? Seriously? Wow... Thank you all so much. I first want to take this time and just show my gratitude for you all, for being here, supporting me and the story of this blog. It really means a lot to me.
I want to give special attention to @etriansquad-yssey, @dtgvxg, @daebreaker1, @xsuicunex2, @spyrkle4, @overanalyst556, and every anon that has been here since day 1. You all are amazing, and without you this story wouldn't have gone anywhere. So I thank you for all the support you've given me. It truly mean a lot to me in ways words can't even begin to say.
Another shout-out and thank you to is to @ghostshadow-k-r, without they didn't need to draw Kebi sprites for me, but they did, and I am eternally grateful for that. And thanks to you, our little mascot looks even more adorable!
Tumblr media
And it's no secret that I have been inspired by Mod Bubbles, Mod Poi, and Mod Creeper's blogs of ASOOT, NWPM/DTFA, DRSurvivor respectfully, so if they see this I want to thank them again for their hardwork and for inspiring me to pursue a story blog of my own. And one more thank you to Mod Poi as well, I enjoy our talks together and your help. I really appreciate that.
But yeah, hoo wee, onto the actual arc itself. And, I feel it didn't that long at all, I mean time flew by so fast, like-
.....huh? ....Oh, I'm sorry, what? .....It's been long...like a long, long time..... W-Well, okay then....h-how long could it have been...?
Tumblr media
A YEAR?!?!?!!?!?
That's not good.... Uh, heh heh heh......
Well, I'm sorry about that. This arc did take much longer than I was anticipating.... But with work and personal life shenanigans, as well as my mental health states, and sometimes just being not motivated or tired to work on the story did slow it down a bit...
I hope to not have this be the precedent for arcs going forward and will try my best going forward, but I think I can say the next arc won't take as long.... I hope....
Not only helped by times even I was tired of where I was in the story and just wanted to move on to the next beat because it sounded much more fun. Or simply because I forgot what I wanted to do or have characters say in certain moments.
But there was a lot I did like in this arc. I liked writing Hajime and his struggles, and the whole side arc with Mahiru was done well, I liked getting the chance to include Kebi, that was fun, and getting to show off Tenten.
But there are two big elephants we need to address, so let's do it now shall we?
Tumblr media
Ah yes, Nagito Komaeda. Danganronpa's icon and forever meme boi. Who I am sure sparks no discourse whatsoever with his presence.........haaaa...
Writing Nagito has certainly been challenging, as you've seen I'm o the belief that not everyone should have immediately forgiven him and Nagito shouldn't be babied because of his disease and health. He is smart enough to solve the crimes or at the very least, have some suspects in mind when it comes to the class trials so he is very intelligent. And while Nagito has gotten his share of humble pie from the anons, there have also come some toxic fudge as well drizzled in there. I need not go any further for many of you to know what I'm talking about. And maybe I have mistakenly gave the impression that this kind of behavior was allowed because this arc went on for so long, but even so, there have been numerous moments where the line has been crossed.
This arc has been about characters coming to terms with their actions and striving to better somewhat, and they can't get better if they are constantly stepped down on when the attempts are honestly being made. Redemption is not an easy path for those who choose to walk it, but they also shouldn't be deliberately run over either.
But for the most part, it was pretty tame. I mean, could you imagine if there was another character like this who I may have written worse and have constant discourse battles in my ask box about this concept everytime they were on screen? Pfft! Wouldn't that be wild! Ahahaha-
Tumblr media
Oh...it's you...... Heeeeeeeee.........Hiiiiiiiiii.......
Look, I have not hid this. Hiyoko is not my favorite character in this cast. Probably in this whole franchise. But even still, I tried to make do with Hiyoko to the best of my abilities, but as you can see, it didn't bode well with a select few.
"Unsalvageable" Many claimed Hiyoko was unsalvageable, and it's easy to see why. I will admit. I may have gone overboard with the annoying bully part of character, which as you can see brought an onslaught of dicussions and ask from her many fans or "simps" as me and Mod Poi like to address them by. And to think...this would have been so much worse...
I think it's about time I tell you all what I initially had planned for Hiyoko that would make many hate me, huh? So I'm pretty sure after Hajime's therapy and intervention session, we would just time skip to when Mikan wakes up. She has amnesia, can't remember anything, yada yada yada. All that stays the same. Except one thing; Hiyoko's there this time. And she would claim that Mikan is merely faking her amnesia. And so to prove it, Hiyoko would go see Mikan alone, bully her some more like pulling on her hair, hitting her etc, and even trying to kill her as revenge, the same way Mikan did to her. Everyone comes in just in time to stop her, then Mahiru would end her friendship with Hiyoko, and the arc would essentially end the same.
........So you can see why I dropped that, right? I'm going to claim what I rewrote was better, it was still kind of messed up, but I needed Hiyoko to truly awaken, have her eyes opened and truly reflect on what she had done. All Hiyoko does is deflect and dismiss any sort of consequence that comes her way, Hiyoko needed to be face with the reality and to stop living in her own little bubble. That was I was trying to go for with her here. And if I ever did wrong by her, then I apologize and I will try to make her better as the arcs go on.
All in all, writing this blog has been fun, stressful, calming, exhausting, exciting, and frustrating. ...But I loved doing it. And once again, I'm thankful to you all for sticking it with me this far.
I'm going to take a little break to fine tune some parts of the next arc going forward, but I also have some posts planned to stay in touch with you guys. So until then look forward to that, and I will you see you all when we return for the next arc which is...the Future Foundation Arc......
Tumblr media
....oh god.... A-Ahem! See you all then!

Just finished oracle of ages!!! Good game, good game. I have Thoughts.
I actually really enjoyed the story and characters! I figured going into the oracle games that it'd be a simple, cliché story, not much nuance or depth, and with Seasons that's basically what I got: din gets fridged in a crystal at the start of the game -> go get her -> you need a set of maguffins to do so -> fight big monster.
Admittedly it was the first game, which meant less story, but even if I hadn't linked (heh) the games for extra end game content Ages just did so much more.
Unlike din, naryu has someone else willing to help her. Ralph (the twinkiest twink to ever twink) was a young man who was her devoted friend (there was a weird crush triangle thing going on with him, Link and naryu, I always felt like I was missing subtext) and, spoilers for a 20yo game?? I guess?
He was the dethroned descendant of the ancient queen Ami. His family definitely still have big money though. He was pretty clearly supposed to be a comic relief character with a twist, but I ended up really liking him! He was over enthusiastic and over confident, but not unintelligent, a decent swordsman (I think) who was incredibly loyal to his friends and held some deep rooted responsibility for the people his family used to rule. Kind, determined, good with kids and people in general, he was terrified but willing to sacrifice his very existence to save the people.
The world building was also great! I don't think I've ever played a zelda game without gorons, but hylians were in short supply. To be expected outside of hyrule, I guess? Anyway, there were also lizard people on an island (tokay!) whose entire deal was.. A bit outdated? Rude, brazen and aggressive to outsiders, they lived in crude huts, worshipped things they didn't quite understand and were generally the old Hollywood stereotype of an isolated jungle tribe.
There was also, like, zora racism? There's a zora village underwater, and one of them was like 'us sea zora are nothing like those river zora 😒' which handily solved both my question of if the river/ocean zora divide was canon or fanon and the relationships between the two. Are they even the same species?? It just makes the rito even weirder but hey lmao. In all honesty I was pretty sick of the river zora at that point too, I swear there were two of them popping up in every screen that had even a sliver of water deeper than the knees and they CONSTANTLY shot fireballs istg they were such a pain. They were literally everywhere and so hard to kill.
On the plus side mermaid suit ^u^!! A dungeon item (the mermaids cave), the item had a desc like 'the skin of the mythical beast' which raised SO many more questions than it answered. The zora were delighted to see a young mermaid! The use of 'maid' implied either a) the zora all thought link was a girl and he didn't correct them (eyo genderqueer androgeny) b) the zora don't subscribe to gender the way humans do (eyo genderqueer androgeny) or c) all fish people look like mermaids regardless of their specific gender (eyo genderqueer androgeny). It literally could have been all three who knows. Maybe one day we'll actually meet a mermaid in zelda.
Also, there's a mini game in Seasons, which I played first, the subrosian dance. It's a pretty popular part of their culture, it's got music, it's got professional dancers. In Ages, you find the gorons doing the exact same dance! Rosa, a subrosian performer you meet in Seasons, is also there, saying her people's dance is better (tbf it is), but if you go to the past you'll find the gorons actually invented the dance first, as part of their love of games and entertainment, and you can talk to two subrosians who are talking about bringing the dance home! It's so interesting to see little details like this, where the travelling subrosians visited their fellow cave dweller lava eating people centuries ago, brought it back home where it exploded in popularity and centuries later became refined as a whole folk dance with spinning and everything, with the people forgetting where it came from, where the gorons keep their dance exactly the same (having to do a rhythm game without rhythm is hard).
Actually, there was so much political fantasy drama going on in the past?? Like, you've got the childless queen taking care of her people, a budding village and a few more settlements across the kingdom. Early in her reign she tried to build a tower to act as a beacon to her fiancé lost at sea, which is a romance story all on its own, but it was cut short (maybe because of funding?). Centuries in the future, it's just ruins. You've got people living on an ACTIVE VOLCANO starting a symmetry cult around a artifact called 'tuni nut' which, presumably, stabilises the volcano? And it's entirely cut off from the outside world. The goron elder is crushed under rocks and their economy is failing. The zora king got poisoned and he's about to die without an heir because a witch turned the fairy queen into an octorock, but the man in charge of the only cure refuses to hand it over until someone passes his tests.
Most of it is solved relatively easily by link and a copious amount of time travel, but the thing with the ruling queen only gets worse. When the evil witch invades the kingdom, she possesses the oracle of ages, naryu (who's a little implied to be the Actual Creation Goddess Naryu reincarnated) and travels back to the past to bring about an age of despair in the present. She does this by slipping into the royal court and befriending the queen as a serving girl, rising up the ranks to become her closest advisor and corrupting her (pretty sure mind control magic is used a li'l). She convinces her to restart the black tower project, pouring all of her and the towns resources into it - forcibly conscripting every able bodied worker and working them to the bone, all while monsters start to circle the tower. With all the fear and resentment, it quickly becomes a beacon of dark energy, a perfect focal point to perform black magics.
Link (and Ralph) end up in the past and get hauled in front of the queen, with possessed naryu at her side, who basically jeers at them and ensures the queen won't listen to their untrustworthy lies. The townsfolk are getting increasingly stressed as their village fills with rubble and their men are worked to the point of collapse. Armed guards start to appear to keep the workers under control. Eventually, Ralph uncovers a hole in the guard rotation, and he and link sneak into the palace through a secret entrance Ralph oh so casually knows about. Link and naryu fight, but with stupendous timing the queen walks in to see naryu collapsed on the floor, Link standing over her with a sword. She calls for the guards, but before anyone can react, the witch, banished form her first vessel, leaps into the queen herself instead. Ralph shoves past the arriving guards and into naryus arms, while link moves in from of them. The queen orders the guards to attack, but naryu, reawakened, pulls them back to the present in the nick of time. In the present, the black tower is magically growing, reaching higher and higher into the sky, terrifying the people of the city.
Then! Ralph, who at this point is suspiciously invested now his actual goal is completed and naryu is safe, vows to go back into time again, away from naryu, to live under the now evil queen and bring protection and comfort to the villagers as a direct act of resistance, because the witch is feeding on their sorrow to power an unknown ritual (link knows. Link, canonically, has told nobody). So this teen in fancy robes and cape goes back to the oppressed, poverty stricken town under the thumb if someone who wants him dead and lives there for weeks if not months dedicating himself to supporting the village and bringing people's hopes and spirits back up, presumably while living out of someone else's wooden hut. In the middle of a literal depression inducing miasma that's sapping everyone's joy and will to live.
That just. Takes insane strength of character. That's a feat of pure, distilled, compassion as anarchy.
Link's off bouncing between past and present doing dungeons and solving easier issues through either sword or magic item, but Ralph is out here doing the long hard slog for little reward.
Link finally returns to the black tower completed, affecting even the people of the present, and, preparations complete, rushes to the past. Ralph is nowhere be seen. Talking to the villagers reveals several have a crush on him, but an old man saw him running for the tower, sword drawn. There's a man pacing by the entrance, who saw the kid run in, tried to stop him. He said Ralph said that he no longer cared what happened to him. That the man realised that Ralph had quietly succumbed to the same curse of despair they all were under. Link fights his way up to the top of the tower, where Ralph confronts the evil queen, sword at her heart, but every step she takes into it, he steps back. The witch laughs. She asks him if he's really willing to write himself out of existence - being the queens descendant, and all. Ralph leaps back, into links chest. He's shaking and stuttering, but he lunges, and is knocked out in one blow. The queen now asks link the same question: is he willing to erase Ralph? If he strikes her, kills her, the queen will die, childless, and he will never live. She leaves, and link rushes to Ralph. He's awake but unresponsive, defeated. With a heavy heart, Link leaves him to chase the queen. It's naryu who finds him, brings him out of the tower.
When the witch is defeated, the curse is lifted, and Ralph is once more energetic and kind. He's a little quieter now, though, sticking close to naryu. For all he was a loud and headstrong kid, I gotta say I was very impressed.
He would have made a good king.

Jaune Arc has been one of my Favorite Characters in RWBY. In this video, I get into Jaune's Story and Journey as a Character over the course of RWBY Volumes 1 through 6. Capping the video off with an explanation as to why I got so interested in Jaune to begin with and what I wished we got to explore more with Jaune.
This video was also originally made as a part of my Final Thoughts Video for RWBY Volume 6 I put out late last year, which is linked below. Know that the script for this video was written and recorded before RWBY Volume 9 Premiered and the Full Final Thoughts Video was put out long after RWBY Volume 9 end. If you enjoy this video, please check out my previous video talking about Ruby VS The Furious Cat and the Final Thoughts this video about Jaune was originally a part of.

if youre still interested can you maybe talk a bit more about your main ocs story in general ?
Yes yes of course!!
So The story starts off with our main character, Zekira. Zekira was born an orphan, adopted by a pirate captain at a young age. Growing up, she became an efficient swashbuckler and fearsome first mate of her adoptive father. She is charismatic and slick. Loving to tease and banter with her enemies. Their ship is raided by the terrifying pirate assassin Cassia (known by most as The Leviathan). She slaughters the crew, including Zeki and her father. Setting the ship alight in flames. Cassia sets off to continue her mission to kill every man, woman, being who calls themselves a pirate. Blinded by her past she seeks nothing but vengeance.
Zeki awakens in a strange place. She's dead, she's sure of it. Yet she feels so alive. In front of her is shelves and shelves of books that seem to go on for miles. In the middle of it a desk with a giant... Ball of fire. A library. The Librarian greets her, informing her that he was the one that brought her here and that he can offer her anything she desires, as long as she helps him in return. He promised her immortality for his freedom and she accepts. He tells her that the keys to free him are scattered around the globe, and that all of them are needed for his escape. From now on, each time she is killed on earth, she awakes here in the library until her body is healed enough for her soul to return. Each time she dies, she feels a little different, a little more powerful. Soon discovering she gained powers of the celestials.
The Librarian is not as happy with this deal as he appears to be. As a star/celestial body he is not one for company. Nor working with others. In fact he dislikes terrestrial life, seeing them as primitive and lesser. He is imprisoned in this library to teach him the opposite, but it makes him hate them more. Wishing he destroyed the whole planet when he threw that meteor at those lizards. He's stuck up and has a bit of a god complex, but uses a front of politeness and good manners to get his way.
After Zekira gains immortality, she awakes a small explorer ship. Being rescued from the thrashing ocean waves and assumed drowned, the crew is shocked to find her breathing. The captain of this ship is a woman, Margot. Margot is kind and curious of this mysterious woman. Enraptured by her, Zeki is able to convince this explorer to allow her to stay on the ship. She soon becomes somewhat of a co captain. Zekira spearheading the journeys they take to feed into Margot's want for adventure and danger while also helping her complete her mission.
Meanwhile, Cassia learns of this pirate who arose from the dead. She makes it her sworn mission to find a way to kill Zekira for good

sorry but i'm wheezing at "and who epitomizes that better than Carlos." better than CARLOS? uh literally anyone. anyone on earth who wasn't rejecting all guidance and working himself into a state of total isolation and paranoia and screaming and sobbing and pointing a gun in the face of an innocent man like two seconds ago. literally any person without such profound and wholly unresolved issues with law enforcement and family and violence and fear. i would trust the vega twins as texas rangers more than carlos. i would give lou ii a gun before i would give one back to carlos

So..I might be really bad at dc stuff, but wasn’t red hood the one who like, got kidnapped and murdered by the joker?
Yeppers!
He was brought back to life via a “Lazarus pit” that is used by an assassin association to keep their leader alive for hundreds of years. The pit comes with a downside of “pit mania” where you’re filled with rage and bloodthirsty behaviors. This is what drove Jason Todd to try and kill batman/batfam. He was already insecure and didn’t feel like he was a good enough Robin and could never be loved like Dick was, so he felt that Bruce failed him and left him to die. Which is what drove the pit mania to be even more intense and make him try to kill bruce/the batfam. Also he hated Tim Drake bc he was the Robin that replaced him and he saw that as Bruce not even caring about his death

Gonna head to bed, but I have a few quick things to say:
Leo wasn't vanished in the prison, she voided. She was perfectly calm when she returned. She definitely wouldn't have been chilling on the couch if she had been threatened.
Q!foolish might've only said one lie(the richas one), but he was going all in on being as deceitful as possible when answering any questions.
Believe it or not, q!foolish does get taken seriously. Like there is a reason why q!foolish was a founding member of theory bros. He is/was very much trusted and provided good Intel on multiple occasions. It really annoys me when people try to make the claim that other q!characters don't take him seriously, when they all do. The reason he gets away with a lot of his pro-federation stuff is because people trust him. Not because they think he's too stupid and silly to work for the federation.
I fully believe he had the choice yesterday to say no, I'm not sure I believe cucurucho would've accepted a no today. Either way, he didn't actually entertain the idea of saying no. He was looking for all the reasons to say yes.

I have a fun (fanfic) idea that builds around the idea that oh, Sasha is bad a levitation, but Milla is bad a marksmanship. Not just, that they’re bad, but that they’re so bad at it that they can technically levitate/psi blast, but they just do it so wrong it has no effect.
For example, Milla can concentrate a blast of energy from her mind, and she’s pretty good at targeting, but she doesn’t do any damage. It’ll just gently push the target, but only push it enough to where you need special tools to measure the change.
Meanwhile Sasha can create the lev ball and float, and it can exist for a long time without bursting, but it doesn’t suspend or lift anything. If you stand on the lev ball it can support your weight, but it’s stationary. It cannot move. So my idea is that they got assigned to be partners because they have mastery over their own skills and hopefully will teach the other how to actually have function in their powers. The reason they don’t work right is because they’re not in the right mental space and trying to use the opposite technique to achieve similar results.
That and trauma. Milla doesn’t like concentrating/focusing on her own feelings because a lot of her negative emotions is related to the fire, which she wrongfully blames herself for. She’d much rather let her emotions flow from place to place, intensity to intensity than have to face and concentrate on her guilt. Meanwhile Sasha doesn’t want to let his mind wander, because he knows what it’s going to drift to. He’s pretty good at regulating his emotions but not so much reflecting on why he is having an emotion, so it’s just a cycle. But ultimately, they’re both stuck in their ways because they’re secretly terrified of getting hurt again.
So naturally they’d both have to develop as instructors and their own personal relationship to make any progress on anything. They start out with an insultingly basic view of each other, but eventually grow realize how deep and interesting they both are as people. They both even start to realize how actually similar they are and realize their own faults by observing the other person. And the further their relationship goes the better understanding they have of one another and the ability to be vulnerable gets easier. They both admit that they’re afraid of hurting someone and (literally and metaphorically) falling, but they assure the other person that they’ll cover them and make sure they’ll be alright. At some point they both realize that this is the closest relationship either of them really have to another person, to trust someone enough to admit your dirtiest, painful secrets and not have the other person react in a way that only makes you feel worse.
This continues until the lessons get adapted into a way that they can improve and their skills actually become effective. Not good, just functional, below average if will. Milla’s blasts can actually do damage now, but she’s still not great at it. If the average agent can do three(3) damage per blast, and Sasha can do five(5) per blast as an expert, Milla can shoot for about one(1)-two(2) damage per shot. And Sasha can float and move quicker on a lev ball, but the average agent can do basic movements like moving diagonally, Milla can do elaborate flips and poses and stunts, but Sasha can only move in a straight line, and slow descent(in a straight line).
But after they teach each other how to use their skills, they’ve really honed how to work together as a team and thankfully get assigned to work together on missions all the time. So they can truly keep that promise of looking out so they don’t hurt anyone or fall.

So I was watching Cartoon Universe’s excellent S4 trailer breakdown video and Hailey pointed out something I had completely forgotten, which is that we see a cuddle-monkey (like Stella) on the star map in the new S4 intro that got released in SDCC. And we see a cuddle-monkey (six legs) playing a cello, specifically. And we already know “A Song of Love and Loss” from NYCC 2021 is from S4, supposedly played by a cast member who is a secret cellist. The song is beautiful and heart-wrenching and at the time, most of the fandom speculated it would be regarding Ethari (as he has a lute in some old concept art in the 2020 art book) and Runaan or about Rayllum in S4. However, with the almost chaotic, desperate edges to the song and that Stella will surely be very upset at any separation from Rayla, and we know Callum and Rayla are going to be separated again before the season is over... 
I think the song is what’s going to be playing during this scene, before Callum resolves to do anything to get the love of his life back

I have to tell you guys the secret
Kingdom Hearts is not actually a hard series to understand
It has some contrivances, it can be elaborate in places, but it’s not very hard to understand.
The issue is this: it’s long
It has a lot of games, and the games take about thirty hours to beat often times. Most things are actually explained in a straight forward way, and the concepts are repeated for entire games with each game building off the last.
That means a lot of details can add up so that it’s impossible to explain everything that will get referenced in new games in a short timeframe, but it has nothing to do with how difficult something is to understand, it is just a lot to keep track of, especially if you’re trying to learn it in thirty minutes instead of across like
Multiple work weeks worth of digesting a story
As was intended
When a person‘s heart is corrupted by darkness, they become a creature known as a ‘heartless’, and the body left behind becomes a ‘nobody’
These being the enemies to fight. Heartless introduced in 1, and Nobodies introduced in 2 (depending what the release order was but I am not here for that)
This is not a complicated concept, really. It raises plenty of questions, but this concept is explored in essentially 120 hours of gaming if not more.
Someone being unable to sufficiently explain a series with all of its intricacies is no indication of complexity or confusion.
For that matter, most of the things that are actually confusing are due to being vaguely explained within the series or outright miscommunicated. Most things don’t fall under this category, but even the things that do, aren’t really ‘complicated’, they just aren’t explained well in series.
Kingdom Hearts definitely appeals to people who like to piece together lots of details, but honestly I don’t think it’s very hard to follow for people who don’t get into all of that if they just play the games rather than watch 30 minute videos trying to explain like 13 games.
#Vio’s Personal#Lots of things have got me thinking about this#I wanna write a 10 arc series and you know trying to explain Ten Books of content in one sitting?#Kinda not how it was meant to be done#Like you Can give plot overviews but that’s not what people wanna know#They wanna know the various systems and how things connect#Well! That takes time!#And even when done well that is so much info to digest in one sitting??#And lacks the ‘hands on experience’ way of teaching that playing allows#Lacks the moments of discovery that makes things memorable#PLUS KH is a series with some changes#Where characters learn one thing and then get more info to change the understanding#That is gonna make things more complex to follow through overviews too#Like do you include the misconception or do you explain the full version right away?#(Intentional misconception)#Stories are told in the medium and length they’re told in for specific reasons#Also all this said I have not played KH1 since I was like 12 so if I get a deet wrong that’s just how it goes#Playing through the games I never really felt a moment of ‘I can’t understand this’ it was more like#‘I wonder when that will be revealed’#AND ULTIMATELY the reason I wanna say all this?#I feel like it is turning some people away from the games#The games have a lot of details that you can choose to engage with but it is not going to be something difficult for the average person#To follow#If they wanna play through the games and such#If they wanna jump into the latest games? They’ll have to have people explain it to them yeah#Would just rec to go in stages

did you write undertaker before? your writing is kinda familiar!

OOC: This guy? Yeah! :) I do in fact still have him, but he's heavily request only because he's not only stab-happy but very much murder-happy and due to that, I'm not really into the game for non-plotted / random stuff.
I'm completely unaffiliated with the Kuroshitsuji / Black Butler Fandom for numerous reasons and I play him as Death Incarnate, so the notion of immortality does not exist when it comes to him, as even he died before in a very gruesome way to take this place.
I'm always happy when people seem to recognise me from somewhere else because of how far apart some of my picks can be, be it muse- or fandom-wise, but this one actually was a lot in Bleach, so makes sense! But yes, good call :)
