Do you think any of Fionn's wives could be summoned as servants? I know the base summon rules probably don't really allow for it but at this point when FGO it kinda seems like a "whoever they want for whyever or however they want". I was thinking of Sadhbh specifically, though I feel like because of legend it would be treated a little like Rama and Sita; obviously not the exact same way but a similar "where one is the other can't be" but like also,,,, being able to hold his beloved Sadhbh (1/2)

Funnily enough, a few years back I did actually talk about some of these scenarios and came up with what classes Fionn's wives and Emer would be! We won't go through all of them here but!

Sadhbh: Caster, because of her fae heritage and it'd be a nice irony given she was cursed via magic to begin with. Could also manifest as a low tier Saber or Lancer by borrowing one of Fionn's weapons, like how Medb took Fergus' sword for her summer alt lol

Emer: Easy Saber for the sole reason that she was willing to rock up on Fand and fight her to get back Cu Chulainn. I can't remember if she's said to have had any specific weapons on her, but she did gather up all her maids and friends for the cause so she must've had something. Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned and by god Emer was pissed!

If Fionn and Cu got to see their wives in Chaldea again they would both simply clutch tightly to them and never let go, full weeping on their knees and everything. If Conchobar shows up he's getting killed and bullied every single time one of the Celts lays eyes on him, and Medb would of course be first in line to do so

The funniest possibility however is if Aoife showed up. She can't fight her sister anymore bc of Cu but she can reignite the Sibling Rivalry in super petty and competitive ways so seeing her and Scathach challenging one another to every sport or competition in existence would be highly entertaining to all involved

Howdy howdy hope you're having a good day. In the tags of one of your posts you mentioned feeling that you think Nasuverse Cú is "squandered" in some way. Is it just a lack of apperences? Characterization issues? Hope ya don't mind me picking your brain a bit. Personally I've always found Nasuverse's Cú Chulainn one of the better adaptations of the figure - mainly because it seems like he's the only one I've been able to find who actually *likes* being Cú Chulainn in a sea of adaptations that play him up in a morose, tragic, broody way were his own existence is a curse upon himself (Hound Graphic Novel you are my sworn enemy) - which feels like it carries the spirit of the hero a lot better. Hope ya don't mind this chunky ask and that little tangent I went on, and I hope ya have a great day!

Oh no prob. For me it's a combination of how his myth is incorporated and lack of appearances. Characterization wise I think he's amazing. I get why StayNight servants don't really do anything in FGO but I think only some of them deserved that treatment. Rider, Bersaka, Sabah, and Satan I get because they all had big roles throughout. Caster, both Assassins, and to a lesser extent GaShinda however I think deserved to have proper roles in FGO, and of those 4 the only one who ever got that was Carm. Kijiro was a complete joke in Shimousa, Medea got replaced with an objectively worse Lily in Okeanos and LB5, and proper Medea's only appearance in the main story was a fake out, and Cu somehow has 4 different servants (5 if we count Arcade) who have all done NOTHING AT ALL. Custer was our tutorial plot device, Proto Cu is a glorified Easter Egg, and Calter is just part of Medb's character rather than his own thing. Combine all of that with the fact that Cu's most notable thing in his original story is how no matter what he dies (and how none of those deaths are ones that take place at the center of the story, with only 1 being a major story moment. Funnily enough that's my preferred route for completely different reasons). I know he's a bigger deal in Hollow Atarxia and has a connection with Bazzett but I dont know jack about HA besides it's a time loop thing about Bazzett and Angry Mango. I do know that even in Extraverse he dies and it's so that Extra!Rin has a story excuse to get superpowers pretty much.

It feels to me like he's this really cool character who isn't undersold per se, it's just he also never...well, does anything, especially in FGO even when Castoria gets to be a thing, Carm gets to have a role, Emiya gets his Alter in a story role, and now Shirou and Kotomine are flat out major antagonists. What does Cu get? A berserker alter who doesn't even have Warp Spasm and whose entire character is how much he DOESNT have a personality beyond "Bored. Kill." When Custer finally got a real role in LB6, it wasn't even Cu who was doing the work, but Odin. Not Lugh, Odin. WtFUCK.

The irony is you're right about Fate feeling like one of the few depictions of him where he's allowed to just be content with himself and be cool, yet Nasu's writing has a seriously callous regard for Celtic mythology; he pretty blatantly leaves stuff out or appropriates it to fit British focused narratives, and his writing has heavy pro-imperialist themes in regards to British erasure of Celtic culture. He has the same attitude towards norse culture and I'm sure it's connected to Odin being in lb6 rather than Lugh. I honestly can't understand the thought process like why would make a Celtic hero one of your most well known characters with what seems like genuine fondness for their myth but then pull all that...?

But that's a whole other conversation. TLDR, I don't think he's a bad character - far from it. But I feel like I have no reason to care about him as his own character, and they don't even implement things that could expand on him so much like Proto Cu and his master or the Riastrad or Emer or Aife etc.

❝ seems the only thing i can do right these days is destroy everything around me. ❞

     HUH…THOSE WERE ODD words to hear from Cu. Perhaps because, as cynical as they could be, there was something…altogether different about what Ozymandias was just told. It was enough that his attention was instantly snared, what focus he had on the vast green fields in front of him, temporarily forgotten for something that was deemed much more interesting in comparison. ❝This sounds like a story,❞ he finally said after his moment of quiet. ❝Do you mind sharing this tale with me? Considering you brought it forward, I imagine that a part of you wishes to discuss these thoughts.❞ Or was it better to say feelings? Things with Emer seemed to have smoothed over, although he and Emer were still very much separated the last time that he checked. So, that could not have been what was on the other’s thoughts. It was times like this that Ozymandias wished that he could read minds so that he could delve into the other’s. ❝Come. Sit.❞ He sat down upon the ground, gesturing for the Caster to do the same as well. ❝We will not be going anywhere for the rest of the day, so we might as well find some means of passing the time.❞

     The teen went ahead and kneeled down to pick a small rabbit that was close by and began petting it. Never mind the fact that she was subtly trying to avoid eye contact with the Hunter.“Oh, I do wonder about that as well. I must say that I wasn’t even thinking of rabbits at the time.” Words were thrown to the air that answered nothing and raised even more questions. The princess hummed to herself as she gently caressed the white fur of her small friend. She didn’t know that Robin liked gardening and wondered if rabbits ate flowers as well. Well, they would eventually find out, that’s for sure. Also, it was quite amusing to be called ‘little miss’ by the Archer when, even as a teen, Emer still was taller than him.

     “I was hoping that Mr. Robin could help me in gathering the rabbits since you appear to have a special skill that attracts forest creatures?” Or so Emer thought since the Archer was often accompanied by a fat blue bird and animals didn’t run away from him. “But wouldn’t kill them be a waste of arrows? They’re made of magic so I doubt they’ll stay to make a good meal for the others and I’m afraid I don’t have much experience in killing cute animals like these.” That had been her handmaidens’ and servants’ job back when she lived. The princess looked at the small rabbit and smiled at it one last time before placing it down.“It’s okay, my fluffy friend. I’m sure Mr. Robin will make it as quick and painless as possible.” After saying that, the small, white rabbit hopped towards the Archer and looked at the man with its big and innocent eyes. // @inheroic. ° ( cont )

How would the Cu's react to a female master staring at them a lot and the cu's thinking she has a crush, but she was really looking at thier hair thinking how good it would look in a braid.

- Proto jumped to the conclusion sooner than he would admit. People were envious of him, and people looked at him. He has a bit of ego over the whole "people thought he'd bang everyone so tried to get him killed" incident.

- Liking what you see, Master? ...Huh?

- Master is entirely serious when she explains that she wonders what he would look like with a braid. Mildly disappointing, but...hey if it makes her happy. He guesses there's no harm in it...maybe he won't have to worry about snagging a strand here and there with his spear while it lasts.

- It's a little nostalgic, honestly. Wearing braids was common back in his era, so he doesn't mind Master doing his hair up. Really, it makes him feel a little closer to her. If she's got hair long enough for it, he'd like to braid hers next!

- Cu Lancer at first thinks it's desire. He's used to being stared at (the ego didn't vanish with age), and he might show off a bit more in battle and around Chaldea for the fun of it. Except...this doesn't seem to fluster Master. What's the deal?

- Hey, what's up, Master? Admiring my handsome mug? ...No?

- ...Huh. Well you can, if you want. He's got no complaints.

- Really, he enjoys having his hair played with and groomed out when he's got the time. He can be a bit impatient with it, but it's nice when it's done. So he'll sit still, or at least still enough, and take the opportunity to just chat with Master for a while. Trading stories, talking about traditions or whatever little things come to mind.

- When it's done, Cu is perfectly willing to play at preening and ask Master what she thinks. Then, it's her turn. What can he do for ya?

- Cu Caster isn't as prideful...but he's keenly aware of people's eyes on him. Honestly! First that know it all Saber, now Master too? What's the deal?

- He waits it out for a brief time to try and get a beat on the why of it, but there are only a few options coming to mind... Eventually, he'll just ask.

- Hey, Master, whatcha lookin' at? Oh, my hair? Looks nice, doesn't it? ...Oh yeah?

- Hey, he's game! He takes good care of his hair! He's got to for it to grow this long and stay in decent shape. And when he's shooting fire around and fighting all sorts of enemies, having it done up into something more practical seems nice.

- Besides, he misses sharing in grooming. He and his wife, Emer, used to do each other's hair from time to time, and he'd help with his daughter Finscoth's when he was around.

- He might reminisce a bit, and tell stories if Master asks. With how much hair he has, they'll be there for a while. They certainly have enough material to make multiple braids if they want to!

- So, Master, anything you'd like him to do for you after this?

- Cu Alter is aware of the staring. He. Does not like the staring. It reminds him of how Medb would watch him sometimes, though Master has a completely different expression right now.

- What?

- ...That's it? Do whatever, he doesn't care.

- He winds up just sitting there, tail curled out of the way as he zones out and lets Master comb and braid his hair. He won't complain if there are occasional tugs, they barely register to him. Just don't get too handsy back there.

- It's a much quieter affair than the other Chulainns. Cu Alter isn't one for idle conversation, but he guesses it's fine to spend time like this with Master. He isn't that concerned with his hair anyways.

- ...Yeah, he guesses it looks fine. Good job, or whatever. Don't expect him to return the favour.

- For all his supposed indifference though, he keeps the braid for a good long while, until it gets messed up in his next fight. If Master asks nicely, he might let her do it again.

[caemthe]

     Emer didn’t get to exchange any words with the new edgerunner before so it was nice to get a chance to talk to him now. When she didn’t see the man around with everyone else, she thought he would be the lone wolf type of guy. Fortunately, that wasn’t the case. So she sat next to Khaz and took a sip from her own drink. “Not at all, take as much time as you need. The night just started so one is going anywhere anytime soon.” She could see why it was kind of overwhelming as she had been in a similar position before though many would be surprised if they learned the latter as the netrunner was particularly good at hiding behind a mask. “You’re one of the first ones that don’t outright say that they find it boring tho. I don’t mind it tho, it’s nowhere near as exciting as having a car race in the middle of the desert shooting traffickers or militaries.” Not that she ever had any desire to be caught in the middle of all that stuff. She didn’t really like any of the dangerous stuff (alright, that was a lie but, to be fair, it wasn’t something she wanted to do in the long term) but considering she was damn good at her job, might as well use her skills for her benefit (’and make some friends along the way!’). 

     “So, better gigs aside, is this why you decided to join Ferdiad and Cú’s gang?” Emer finally asked after a few seconds of silence between the two young adults. She didn’t specify what ‘this’ was. The netrunner giggled at the edgerunner’s hesitation. “Don’t worry, I promise I’m not interrogating you on anyone’s behalf. Those two don’t really care about the past of the other team members but I can’t help myself from being curious. If you ask me, well... I might not officially be part of it, but I took on the offer to work with them because I was saving up to start my own clothing brand.” A bit embarrassing to admit? Not at all! In fact, Emer had even stretched her arms as if she was revealing a billboard with her name on it. “Just imagine it... my designs on modeling a.i. on the main square...everyone stopping their daily routine for a moment to look up and wonder when will Emer’s new collection be available to the public. That would be pretty amazing, right?” Big dreams for someone on the wrong side of the city.

The Pale Cu (Cu Caster, Scathach, Rin)

He loved her.

As he’d told Aife and as he had told Scathach, there was no one in the world more suited to be at his side than Emer. The thought of learning to use weapons was good, but he could already see that this was a failing prophecy of life and quick death ahead of him. He could go back, point out that he had learned to fight from the great Scathach herself, but that man wasn’t going to simply hand his daughter over. Emer would never forgive him if he killed the fool of a man either.

“Teach me runes,” he told the two sisters.

The two exchanged looks.

“Runes will be more difficult,” Scathach warned.

“I’m not afraid.”

“You may find yourself unable to handle what you do with that magic,” Aife tried to tell him.

“I wasn’t afraid of fighting you,” Cu pointed out.

The lessons, as they began, were nothing less than torment. Night after night, he was pulled from his bed. While he worked endless labor during the day, the night hours became training hours. He gave gifts to the gods under the light of the moon. He worshiped the hours between the sun and the moon, thanking that small time to nap before he would begin the slaughtering of boars and the delving into the depths of holly and ivy.

The more he went into this training, the more his body seemed to change.

His body felt colder, his skin paled, missing the sunlight hours when he would often go inside for small naps between his tasks in keeping Scathach’s home kept up. It felt as though the moon bleached him, the rays of light blessing him with a vision he could not get in the depths of the woods alone otherwise.

Soon, he wasn’t even sure about returning.

The two training him took little interest in having him stay. Their mocking taunts and their insistent prods only made him that much stronger of a druid. He carved into their trees, creating a thousand eyes from which he could hear.

The trees began to whisper sweet words of aid to his cause.

The earth held him in ways that Emer could never.

Emer…

Cu Chulainn dug his fingers into the dirt, tracing the lines and the symbols onto the hollowed ground. His eyes roamed over the charged air, half expecting one of the two sisters to come upon him and demand he stop.

Instead, he had his summoning circle.

There would be no death to her family with her here with him. She could not hate him for this, but she could learn fast how to love him. She had been becoming more and more interested in his riddles and puns. He’d seen small smiles.

Words unknown to the realm of common man spilled forth from his lips. He looked forth one last time before he bargained with the universe.

Bring me the life of my blood, the fairness in my hardship, the one who can calm the tides of time and bring me safe passage into eternity.

There was brown hair tumbling forth.

A pale body came falling up from the earth itself, landing haphazardly upon his lap as Cu Chulainn ended his summons.

This woman was not Emer.

Cu Chulainn cursed softly, watching the woman resting soundly.

No, she wasn’t resting soundly.

The clever and bonny looking woman was keeping her eyes as peacefully closed as possible, but she wasn’t asleep. It would have been difficult to experience all of that without being awake.

She was analyzing her situation, waiting for action.

Sleep, he bid with a rune.

Her tensed state softened. The woman’s body leaned against his further, completely unconscious now.

“I wonder who you are…”

There was only one way to find out.

First, he would need to make a jewelry piece to show that she was his. Perhaps around her collarbone, he thought, tracing that area with his eyes.

A strong necklace would suit her well.

I had to use this once I saw @hogwartsmysterystory AMAZING template!

---------------------------

THE MAGE

---------------------------

1st Wand: Acacia wand, 12 inches, unicorn hair core

Acacia wood:

A very unusual wand wood, which is found creates tricky wands that often refuse to produce magic for any but their owner, and also withhold their best effects from all but those most gifted. This sensitivity renders them difficult to place, and Ollivanders keeps only a small stock for those witches or wizards of sufficient subtlety, for acacia is not suited to what is commonly known as ‘bangs-and-smells’ magic. When well-matched, an acacia wand matches any for power, though it is often underrated due to the peculiarity of its temperament.

Unicorn hair core:

Unicorn hair generally produces the most consistent magic, and is least subject to fluctuations and blockages. Wands with unicorn cores are generally the most difficult to turn to the Dark Arts. They are the most faithful of all wands, and usually remain strongly attached to their first owner, irrespective of whether he or she was an accomplished witch or wizard.

Minor disadvantages of unicorn hair are that they do not make the most powerful wands (although the wand wood may compensate) and that they are prone to melancholy if seriously mishandled, meaning that the hair may ‘die’ and need replacing.

2nd Wand: 11-and-a-quarte inches, ebony wood, Hippogriff and Fwooper feather

Ebony wood:

This jet-black wand wood has an impressive appearance and reputation, being highly suited to all manner of combative magic, and to Transfiguration. Ebony is happiest in the hand of those with the courage to be themselves. Frequently non-conformist, highly individual or comfortable with the status of outsider, ebony wand owners have been found both among the ranks of the Order of the Phoenix and among the Death Eaters. In my experience the ebony wand’s perfect match is one who will hold fast to his or her beliefs, no matter what the external pressure, and will not be swayed lightly from their purpose.

Fwooper feather:

Fwooper feather wands are said to be a mark of ill omen for the wizards they bond to, as, like the birds they come from, they are rumored to slowly drive their wielder mad. Despite their poor reputation, they do well with Charms and Care of Magical Creatures. However, they have a near-inability to cast Quietus. They are commonly combined with another feather core, such as the phoenix for health or the hippogriff for stability.

Hippogriff feather:

Hippogriffs are noble animals with a reputation for not taking a slight. These wands require constant respect, and if the wielder does not give it, they can watch its formerly stable and versatile magic backfire on it. It is not the strongest core, but it is one of the most adaptable. These wands are most common amongst Gryffindors, but they are rare overall.

Animagus: Jaguar

Misc Magical Abilities: Legilimens

Boggart Form: A younger version of herself and her brother, clinging to each other in fear while a threathening shadow is towering above them. 

Boggart meaning: A simple moment that makes her remember all the times Marina and her brother spent together, unable to trust anything in their own home, their own parents included.

Riddikulus Form: The shadow turns out to be their mother, who casts spells that create butterflies and other pretty things, leaving the siblings in awe.

Amortentia, what she smells like: Sea salt and lavender.

Amortentia, what she smells: Butterbeer, a smoldering fire and cinnamon.

Patronus: Jaguar

Patronus Memory: Besting the ice vault with her friends, being one step closer to her reunion with her brother.

Mirror of Erised: Her brother and her playing at the cliff sides near the manor, while their mother watches over them with a smile. 

Specialized/Favourite Spells: Musicis Ludere (A spell that allows instruments to play whatever song the caster was thinking of without a musician) is her favourite spell in general. Her favourite combat spell is Bombarda.

---------------------------

RELATIONSHIPS

---------------------------

Brother: Acacius "Jacob" Willow.

Marina and Acacius have a very loving and protective relationship. Being born with a neglectant mother and an abusive father, the two learned to rely on each other at a very young age. When Acacius started studying at Hogwarts, he made sure to teach Marina everything he learned during the holidays and the summer.

Much like his younger sister, Acacius is not one to look away from injustice, having to watch his family suffer from his own father’s cruelty for so long. Thanks to the support of Duncan Ashe and Olivia Green, he learned how to stand up to his father and how to quietly rebel against other sorts of authority figures, something he passed onto Marina.

Acacius tends to say ‘fuck it,’ when someone talks shit about his family or muggleborns and just fight them the muggle way. He finds it a good way to get his aggression out but it got him into loads of trouble and a reputation as a delinquent at Hogwarts. It was one of the few things he didn’t pass onto his baby sister.

Father: Emeric Lorenzo Willow

Emeric is a faithful follower of Voldemort, his ambition of furthering his family legacy based on power instead of blood purity being the only thing more powerful.

He married Marina’s mother merely for the natural born skill of legilemncy that ran trough her family, hoping it would pass onto their childeren. As far as most of the wizarding world knows, this marriage nor the childeren it produced exists. Emeric has another family elsewhere to keep up his reputation as a powerful and clean man. 

He controlled his hidden family with fear and his connections, making a show of torturing aurors during Voldemort’s reign and forcing his childeren to watch. 

The abuse was never physhical but mental torture, as a punishment for Acaius and Marina for not having legillmens abilities as far as he knows.

Mother: Abigail Kowalski-Willow.

Abigail is a witch who was born and raised in America and transferred to Hogwarts after an experiment gone wrong and got her expelled from Ilvermorny. 

A naïve yet determinded soul who enjoyed using her legilemens abilities whenever possible, but her ambitions got her into huge financial debt after graduating from Hogwarts.

Enamored with Emeric’s affections and interested in his wealth, she agreed to marry him after a few months of flirting.

When Acacius hid his talent from Emeric, the wizard took his frustrations out on Abigail, torturing her with the cruciatus curse. By the time Marina was born, their mother had passed the brink of insanity. Neither of the kids truly got to know their mother and never learned they got their curiosity and determination from her.

Other Siblings: To be Revealed :3

Love Interest: 

Canon love interest: Jae Kim

The two of them had met during detention and connected by making fun of professor Snape. When the two gradually started hanging out more often they bonded further about their authority defying traits and humor.

The two had been flirting quite often, sometimes even kissing one another on the cheek or forehead, or cuddling in one of their common rooms, but they both played it off on them just joking around,afraid of rejection from the other.

It wasn’t until the Circle of Khanna was estabalished when Jae decided to act on his feelings, but Marina was sadly emotionally unavailable. However, once she worked trough her grief and finished the quest for the vaults, they began a relationship in their seventh year.

Friends with Benefits: Marina and Merula had an agreement that lasted from their sixth year until the first half of their seventh year. Eventually Merula broke things off cause she knew the relationship wouldn’t go anywhere and they parted ways. Marina rediscovered her feelings for Jae Kim a few months later.

A sadistic, death eater for a father and a mentally unstable legilimens for a mother. The first part of her life Marina always kept to Acacius and her mother, scared to leave the house and unable to befriend the kids of her father's associates. The few happy moments she had in her early childhood was whenever her father was working or at a meeting and her mother enchanted the music instruments to play her favourite lullaby as she and Acacius danced and chased each other around the ballroom.

The order of the Phoenix managed to capture Emeric Willow before Voldemort’s defeat at the Potter house. By then Acacius had already dissapeared, leaving Marina alone in an empty household. The few house elves that worked there took care of her as Abigail was taken into St. Mungo’s.

I heard of a theory that says Medb and Morgana are the same character, or at least Morgana is inspired by Medb. The Throne of Heroes would probably still consider them different people, but imagine in a remote timeline that Medb is Mordred's mom

I think you might be confusing Morgan Le Fay and Morrígan being considered the same character because a lot of researchers think the Celtic stories later show up as Arthurian ones. Kind of like how the Romans asked the Greeks if they could see their homework. After Christians decided to nerf several characters because “ùwú only one god!” Medb is considered to be the inspiration/actually is Queen Mab in Shakespear’s play to some researchers. If it’s true, that would mean she’s a queen of fae instead of a goddess because of the nerf

Medb is an entirely different character/ goddess than Morrígan. Their powers DO overlap (as gods tend to do in the same culture sometimes), but they are both in the same story doing different things. They’re both considered a sovereignty goddess, but Medb is a fertility goddess with ties to marriage, life, and women’s rights whereas Morrígan is a shapeshifter related to war, death, and doom. It’s why I joke around that Medb is an alpha queen bee prep and Morrígan is her antisocial furry goth best friend. They’ve never actually met as far as I remember, but I can say whatever I want

Now the theory of Medb being Morrigan is simply just because of how she goes after FGO Cú Chulainn all lovey dovey since in the Celtic stories she’s pretty pissed off that he suddenly shows up as Conchobar’s lackey and kills a chunk of her army. Morrígan is the one who tried seducing Cú but failed to do so. I guess it’s a reason to come up with a theory, but it’s really lacking since there’s not really too many hints of Morrígan in the storyline. She’s only vaguely mentioned in Lancer’s bond 4 line along with Medb, Scathach, and Emer, and in Caster Cú’s dislikes mentioning Medb and Morrigan. I think if they were the same servant, Cú probably would’ve mentioned something about Medb acting different than he remembered, or there would have been some big reveal at the end of America.

I honestly just think DW looked at Medb being the “Queen of many Loves” and decided to add their idea of a “twist” to say “sexy goddess actually wants to be a pure maiden all along!!! (And probably) Cú Chulainn is the only person to make Medb to want to settle down!!!!” because imo all the Celts (especially Medb) related to Cú’s story are kind of meant to just support him similar to the way Boudicca is squashed to make Nero look better. Like I do like a lot of aspects of FGO’s Medb, but I’m not too crazy about the idea that her personality is most likely Japan’s idea of a sexually liberated woman is seen as “better” when she’s suddenly after one person only. I don’t think it has anything to do with Morrígan at all

That being said, Mordred and Medb would be an interesting duo. He would’ve definitely killed the correct Conchobar for his mom. RIP to all 7 of the Maines but Mordred’s differently.

(Caster) Emer was giggling as she ran down the hallway. Because she wasn't paying enough attention, she ended up bumping on the executioner and accidentally stepping on his foot. Mortified for her action, her immediate apology is, “Pardon me sir, I meant not to do it.”

Thump. Thump. Thump. 

As if he had been thrown into some type of shock, the assassin had stilled. His eyes widened in sheer horror when a mere pressure of the Caster’s foot had pressed against his own. Even if she had not intended on hurting him, the man was experiencing something far more than just a mere inconvenience. 

Flashes of memories flood before him. Echoes of her words ran in his memory like a seething hot brand pierced upon the flesh of the guilty. 

There was a cold chill. His body frozen as if he had become locked in time, eyes glazed open while the pounding of his heart filled his ears. The pressure painfully pressing behind his eyes like a fierce headache. 

How long did he hold his breath like this? 

“...” 

He didn’t look at her. Understandably, she could assume that he was angry or dissatisfied with her. His thoughts trapping him from such a simple touch, Sanson had to find his way out of the sudden haze that thickened within each second he stood there. 

It got louder. Her voice, which was a mere whisper, grew LOUDER. 

Her smile, pure and filled with love, fades into his memory. 

The edges of his eyes, a patter of tears had stained the top collar of his coat. 

She’s not here to stop him. The edges of his shoulders shaking ever so slightly.

“Ma...Ma...r....ie...”

@corrchoigilt​ said (inbox):

“My condolences.” It slips out perhaps too easily even if there’s a respectful tone. Him knowing the nature of that relationship… Ah. But perhaps it had become obvious enough even without Emer’s gossiping-

     WHAT IN THE WORLD was Caster talking about? And why was he being given condolences in the first place? It was not as if something had happened to Ozymandias to earn such, and so he was left feeling quite confused as to what he should say. ❝...Thank...you?❞ Was some weird rumor spread around that he was unaware of? People in Chaldea did like to gossip, a given when you were all trapped in a building for months on end, he supposed this was normal. Still...how eerie.

Why is Ashiya Doman the Caster of Limbo specifically? What is meaning with him being associated with Purgatorio and demonic stuff? How he is in relation with the devil or not?

the satan figure is actually a joke he went along(?) to call the alien god by in amakusa’s eyes, his actual master, “satan who art as lucifero” though no idea how much truth that holds and he calls it unfitting yet the alien god’s true name is a plague upon this world

the naming is a bit arbitrary but the constant is that it refers to “places corresponding to a duration of torment”

hell in buddhist cosmology differing from christianity in duration, and i absolutely forgot to check but one of his attacks is an unit of time in hinduism to measure the time of creation and destruction of worlds

i think that he is called “Limbo” because: 

“the further into Limbo they travel, the less bleak it seems. An emeral green meadow of fresh grass. The souls in this area aren’t sighing, they are quiet, and in appearance neither sad nor joyful.  “

“we are punished just with this: we have no hope and yet we live in longing.”

“The anguish of the people / Who are down here blanches my complexion / With the pity that you mistake for fear.” After Dante realizes where he is and the fate of the souls around him, he says, “Deep sorrow crushed my heart when I heard him, / Because both men and women of great worth / I knew to be suspended here in limbo.”

turning figures of great valor we know well………into husks suspended in limbo
