some good genetics

[nevermoredragon-main]

I have never really posted about it but I love ethelravi so much. And like I don't see a lot of discussion for them, perhaps because in the story they die so early on, but like, wahhh!!!

They rivalry being the only way they can express their love to each other because of the limits of the Endless Now perfectly encapsulates the true tragedy of the reality they exist in. Fighting and trying to kill each other is the only way they can express passion.

And then the fact that as they are dying and fading away, their mechs become frozen in a pose as though they were about to kiss each other, only for them to never quite connect. It drives me insane.

omg wait do you have ethelravi headcanons

Hmm hmm I'm not a very ship-headcanons kind of person, unfortunately. I can tell you that I think that my go-to joke about this game is that even before I found out about the twist, I was joking about how everyone in the kingdoms is trying to reinvent love from first principles specifically because Ethel and Cammuravi were so obviously starcrossed lovers who had no idea that they were star-crossed lovers. I really wish they'd done something more with the idea that the people of the kingdoms keep wanting to and trying to recreate prosocial relationships even across faction lines and keep getting it wrong over and over, because they just don't know what they're doing.

And to be clear Ethel and Cammuravi also clearly didn't know what they're doing, as signified by Cammuravi trying to responsibility-zone Ethel the moment they met back up and not really even knowing why (Ethel not taking his shit about it was very funny, though. Yes thank you) I keep wondering if that was a feature of their previous relationship, also, Cammuravi appreciating Ethel as a challenge but patronising to her about how she's not really the best commander she could be, and that drives Ethel to prove him wrong and prove herself as more than someone good at putting bodies in the ground, which in turn makes it impossible for Cammuravi to ignore her in favour of his duties.

Cammuravi losing to Ethel and then throwing away the honour of a loss well earned to fight her once more is such an interesting, uncommented thing, too. The people of the kingdoms are supposed to only want to live to fight another day. IDK if it's sweet or tragic that both Ethel and Cammuravi get exactly what they want in that regard, they are de-facto the best the kingdoms ever get at this whole love thing.

(It's also quite interesting the way they fit into the timeloop mechanics as another layer of confirmation that Kevesi are much likelier to remember the timeloop. Ethel pretty much recognises Cammuravi from the start and the familiarity only grows -- Cammuravi however seems to just have an oblique sense of Ethel's importance and not much more.)

I love Ethelravi. Murder is their love language.

A Semi-Formal Xenoblade 3 OC Post

May as well organize the OC lore from the other day into one post, and add some new stuff.

THE BASICS:

Name/Title: Shockwave Thea (name might change, title’s good though)

Gender: Female

Age: 7th term (16)

Race: Blade (lightning element)

Affiliations: Colony Delta, Agnus

BACKSTORY AND RELATED STUFF:

Thea’s generally a pretty nice person, always looking out for the others in Colony Delta. Doesn’t take care of herself enough since she’s busy worrying about the others. She refuses to let anyone from Delta be hurt, and does her best to prevent enemies from attacking in the first place. With Cammuravi dead, she became the commander of Colony Delta (don’t ask me where it is I have no idea), wanting to continue his legacy as a leader of honorable warriors. She and the others in Delta respect Ethel despite her being a Kevesi commander after she spared him in their first battle.

If she was a Hero, her quest would involve the party fighting the members of Colony Delta, believing they were the ones who killed Cammuravi. Her Ascension quest would involve the current incarnation of Cammuravi reuniting with the people of Delta (also maybe meeting Ethel, either way Thea is still the adopted Ethelravi kid).

CLASS DETAILS:

Class: Bastion/Bastion Warrior (2nd is a Xenoblade X class name and we need all the rep we can get, but I think just Bastion sounds better)

Weapon: It’ll either be a halberd (similar to Cammuravi’s lance but still distinct), a gatling gun (one of the Bastion Warrior’s weapons in X), or a flail (I just think it’s neat).

Role/Nationality: Agnian Defender

Specializes in preventing enemies from attacking. Has a Launch art and can inflict Accuracy Down, don’t think I can do much more than that without making her broken.

I’ll add art and skill names after I settle on a weapon, I don’t know enough to make effects/descriptions for them though.

APPEARANCE:

This picrew is good enough for the face/general vibes, don’t think there’s any character creator that could let me get a fitting outfit for her. Making her look like the lightning Blade that she is would also be a pain since I don’t think there’s any where I could add stuff like a core crystal, ether lines, or other stuff to fit the theme.
