I often wonder about the quote-unquote logistics of Corvo the Black/Emily the Butcher endings. Emily makes more sense to me, in a way, carving her way through the empire only to come back with blood caked under her fingernails and realising that she did everything her father refused to do 15 years ago. but why did Corvo have a similar choice?
what happens to the statues later? does Emily keep her father trapped in stone? does Corvo look at his daughter, frozen in the moment and considers freeing her? is he at his deathbed when he finally reaches out and cups Emily's cheek, freeing her into a carcass of an empire that he gutted for her, in her name, in the name of her mother?
when I first heard of the endings I thought that if you reach very high chaos, you are locked into this choice - Corvo or Emily tries to free the other and the stone just doesn't budge. they are trapped. the quest is over but the world knows that the bloodshed was extreme and this is the punishment they have to face

omg pls draw johnnep they are so cute together
Ask and ye shall receive, anon!
JohnNep is indeed quite adorable and could probably melt even the strongest of hearts. It's pretty easy to imagine John will quite literally pull the dumbest shit just so he can hear the cute kitty-troll laugh. The fact she snorts when she laughs too? Even better.
Nep would 100% percent get John in on her silly roleplay interactions because while he does think it's kind of weird and just a little dumb at first, seeing the kinds of adventures she would end up bringing him on would be pretty worth it at the end.
These two would be absolutely perfect in a "you're my first matesprit/partner ever so please be patient as i figure out how relationships work" deal. Even the first hand hold is just a little intense for them as they stumble through the first few dates. It doesn't take them long to get the other to open up fully though since they're both really goofy and love one another's company.
10/10 ship and a big thumbs up for such a good suggestion
