Intrusive a hat in time related thoughts (and some headcanons, I tend to over think things lol).
What happens when you blow up a timepiece with C2 (C4 lite edition, used for door breaching) or any other small explosive device.
How does a Hat in Time's respawn work in-universe? Does time rewind when Hat Kid (or Bow Kid) is killed to before the event and they keep the memories? Or is it basically like the dead ringer from TF2 with it being rewinded a bit and the 'decloak' happens at or near the point of death? Or is it there is one attempt but the failed attempts are all in weird paralel universes or pocket dimensions.
How did Hat Kid remain sane during deathwish? My headcanon is that there is a dimension in between life and death which is basically a large bar floating around in the aether, this is managed by Master Tempus (well, her soul anyway) who had been freed when timeline 1 fell and timeline 2 began. Hat Kid must have met her.
How was Hat Kid able to access Puella's memories?
What was the Time War actually like, while I personally see it as some Warhammer 40k style, mud filled trench warfare hell others have their own interpretations, if you have any share them. Secondly was it a conflict for a single goal or were there multiple potential objectives the Founders Wanted, that is if they even initiated the conflict.
Mods? How do those work and are they canon.
I will probably make some weird full timeline for my AUs.

"Because I want to be one with you — you finally noticed the wish that I'd been praying for!"
Sirius’ outfit is a wedding dress / wedding themed! I made this her motif because of her obsession with Petelgeuse and because of the whole ‘becoming one’ thing reminding me of marriage / wedding vows, stuff like that. I didn’t know whether to incorporate her bandages or not, and in the end decided against it + opted to just cover as much of her bare skin as possible like with the veil, sleeves, and purple fabric above the shoulders. I gave her a spiked collar and spiky halo-like hairpiece + put her hair in a ponytail (maybe that’s a little hard to tell ahaha) to give her kinda punkish elements to her, twisting the ‘purity’ of the wedding theme a bit to subtly reflect her instability (and because it looks cool). I didn’t want her to just have a regular old wedding dress cause I thought it would look kind of bland compared to the other magi designs, so I added some fire elements to her dress that I think turned out really well :) . I also had the genius idea to make her hooks double as weaponized wedding rings to go with the outfit’s aesthetic. Her hooks are connected together to also symbolize ‘becoming one’ / the unity of marriage, that sort of thing.
The authority from a wish doc says that her wish was for love / believes love is to become one, so her wish would grant her ‘soul-washing’ powers. Her abilities make her extremely dangerous to other magi…

mother of times just somethimh ig.
The calling wasn’t far nor found near by , the call from another time another false hope.
A field that serviced peace that was long lived but ever short lasted,longevity that was, now bk standing in between the petals of nelumbos as they hummed along the melody of life dancing to each swing that the wind took, off and on, before bk there it was
The branch and behind it if the eye didn’t play tricks were many bricks or so does bk call them 
The graves of each traveler ,bk called them bricks  for it to be easier on her soul when mew was far younger, out of touch of the reality of the situation that slipped through the mistakes of time itself, all hopes for those souls to rest easy as the lotus grown within them filling them with its delightful scent
Bk set one foot down upon the bench as in a sense of a warrior looking at the graves as a battle field after war truly astonishing peace of mind handing euphoria in view, bk sure knew she needed a remark a place to start, living a dream wasn’t going to scratch it, as a cat scratching a surface it will ruin it to tiny bits and small atoms are hardly felt beneath cat paws but still leave a spark , even the greatest people were small till growing, meeting those with greater knowledge and learnt
Just like how bk was taught under cavum’s vision, mew should be far more than thankful to be able to question even to the useless bits as she sees them as important through mew’s violet eyes, having answers to most is better than having none at all, a blessing truly 
Harshly biting her tongue to get a hold, a sense of reality, maybe the lack of sleep was biting mew’s “tail”, bk rested her head on the bench, who cares if it’s clean or not ,if it fits then mew Rests bk curled up as sleep poised her, crumbling from mew’s brain to her entirety hiding the sun piece in the suffocating pocket for no eye to fall witness for such item mew took one last glimpse of the “hidden garden” that she surrounded mewself in, she sighed and eyes shut accepting the defeat of the smallest death
                                                       ————————-
> for now this stays as a draft due o the fact it’s doesn’t capture the vibe I want..
Echoing conversations..one stays grounding
“Mew furmally whole heartily believe that this is the way the unifurse works?”  The child questioned the shadow who sat next to her “why yes., creation existed far more than destruction, but the more creation to exist” “ the more clustered the universe will be” the shadow looked at the child that he’ve always considered his own.. his very own student 
Reality and irreality collide and break the barriers of what is true and what not , after all that was the show for the conscious mind ,a story from the unconscious part of the brain to tell as a reminder or a warning 
Could be a reminder of what some may once had, could be a warning of what to come 
Those were dreams for mew, cats usually dream about their owners, she would usually dream about mew’s teacher someone whom she considered a guardian for the longest 
The shadow placed a book on the child’s head in a playful manner “now the information will transport to you!” He chuckled, the child tried rubbing the book against mew’s head to test the shadow’s words the shadow couldn’t help but laugh as he put the book away from the child’s reach, the child looked at him confused “ no no bk, if that is the way information is learnt then we wouldn’t need comparisons nor challenges” the shadow gave a pat on the child’s head, the child was leaning to curiosity about what he meant 
“But mr cavu-“ “please refer me as cavum or if you’d wish you can call me father since I do see of you as a dear daughter of mine.” The shadow reminded the child he may say it a thousand times and somehow will need to repeat it again but he never minded that, after all she was a young soul he must be gentle with such Fragile being
The memory became blurry once again as bk saw mew’s younger self as small paw prints of what she once was but still, The laughs, the tough and the rough realities and times may hunt mew but she’ll always remember simpler times.. those usually bring mew a since of comfort  , almost as faded paws on the snow still leading to somewhere , something, someone
As a petal descended from the high winds till the reach of bk’s nose, a soft sneeze due to the strong smell woke the light sleeper whom is also the keeper of the sun piece, bk got up from the bench and started to wonder around, the place didn’t have much to offer all these bricks.. or should be called for better wording graves and these lotus flowers leaning to whitish-pink in the light, bk sighed as mew looked at the sun piece 
It glows and shines and gives a sense of warmth, although somehow it doesn’t burn her pockets which she found amusing in the long run
“Hm?” The sound of a void sucking the peaceful air all the sudden caught mew’s attention as she turned mew’s head only for a portal to fill the vision bk couldn’t care where it leads 
She might take one big step for cavum but the small onwards goes to mew’s honors , confidently walking towards the portal as if she knew what awaits mew .
“ one for you? “ he asked playfully “ONE FOR ME” she cheered.

Chapter 8: the Ruin of Calcite and adventure.
youtube
Chapter 8 is an au and headcanon infused chapter taking place a week after the events of the base game, Hat Kid's ship picks up an ancient distress signal coming from the planet which looks to be coming from a ruin located somewhere in the northern hemisphere. Upon further investigation it leads to a decently sized island town made out of calcium carbonate, problem is the town is almost completely deserted.
Hat Kid gets a call from the Conductor who had heard about the ruin from old family tales and has contacted an archeoligical firm ran by an old aquaintence of his (named George), the two meet up on the ruin and the firm sets straight to work. Hat Kid begins exploring the ruin and begins having deja vu, when she sleeps the memory walking dreams she has start getting clearer to the point that those in the dreams actually agknowlege her existance and can even interact with her.
It gets worse while during her adventure Hat Kid finds an old APC of unidentified design and nationality, following the process of getting it to the HQ they pry open the rear doors only to discover several weaponised umbrellas and a strage black top hat with a grey ribbon. The APC is bought into the HQ and a military vessel radios in to collect it for study, this vessel however is sunk in a storm with no survivors on the way there.
Hat Kid opens up about the nightmares she was having to the Conductor's mate who decides to give her a break and put her under Cooking Cat's care for a bit to recover, he radios the Conductor himself who agrees to this and states that he thinks the place should have never been found in the first place.
Meanwhile Hat Kid discovers that her can hold actual conversations with individuals in her dreams and considers seeing Snatcher about it, she eventually does and Snatcher believes half of her story. He visits the ruin to see what all the fuss is about (scaring everyone there in the process) and is deeply disturbed, like the Conductor he suggests leaving and never touching the place again but George stubbornly refuses.
A mysterious shadow creature attacks the camp and kills several labourers but is put down by Hat Kid using her Umbrella, in a tent George compares the umbrella with Hat Kid's and discovers that they are almost exactly the same internally. Snatcher makes him return Hat Kid's umbrella to her, two days later several military personal contracted by George arrive in order to guard the camp from anymore threats.
Paranoia begins to set in as several archeologists resign and leave the site, citing unsave working conditions and mistreatment by the horrific crunch times set by George. Hat Kid and the Conductor have taken to her spaceship and the Owl Express respectively with both becoming news relays, both refusing to go anywhere near the dig site. George goes offline for a bit before returning online three hours later stating that another Shadow attacked them but was fended off with small arms.
Eventually however the company's HR department begins getting concerned about conditions at the dig site and they begin an investigation into what is going on, staff, diggers and scientists begin going missing to which the Navy steps in and quarantines the island. Hat Kid lands back on the island and finds it almost completely abandoned, upon further exploration she confronts George who has gone completely off the deep end and the two fight.
This fight ends at the clocktower where George uses a ritual to summon tentacles to tare Hat Kid apart, the latter escapes by jumping from the tower into the sea but loses an arm and her timestop hat. Hat Kid is picked up by CASS Avia and is given medical treatment, she recieves news that George and the rest of the dig team are dead, the Conductor has ordered the site be abandoned and everything they have found will join the town in its radioactive grave as a hydrogen bomb is dropped on the ruin.
youtube
Three months later Hat Kid and the Conductor leave the hall set aside for the inquiry, the two head to their respective homes but while the Conductor's ordeal has finally ended Hat Kid's is not yet over. While she sleeps Hat Kid is pulled into a strange time rift, she lands on a complete reconstruction of the ruin with the only person still there is a mutated version of George and the two have a rematch. Hat Kid is able to defeat George and she wakes up. Hat Kid spots a female figure on the opposite end of her room and cautiously approaches, the figure turns and she discovers that it is a familiar but older looking face.
This individual is Lady Puella and she and Hat Kid sit down together and have a polite chat about things, the two discuss the ruin and Puella admits that she was among the founders of the City of Calcite and Adventure. Hat Kid asks about what the town was like the Puella explains the towns formation, Golden age and final destruction at the hands of Cavus, who Hat Kid killed. Puella thanks her for this and the two continue talking before Puella tucks Hat Kid into bed and puts her to sleep before leaving.
The inquiry places the blame solely on George, Hat Kid recieves a prosthetic limb and the dreams stop all together, the tales of timeline 1 are put to rest and Puella disapears. Ten years later Hat Adult finishes a book outlining the events of Timeline 1 and the history of the City of Calcite, this book is illustrated by Bow Kid and published by a local firm and it goes on to be a best seller.

A Chance Game
===
(A small interlude, involving a once-and-future Warmaster, a funny plane-game, and a brief reference to one or more Magical Girl gods).
===
(IMDb’s (an internet media aggregator) synopsis of a certain video game.)
“Ace Combat 8: Broken Wings.
In Ace Combat 8, you play the as infamous mercenary Larry “Pixy” Foulke, who is hired by Principality of Belka to fight a defensive war against their southern neighbour, the Republic of Ustio.
Ustio had recently elected a highly militarist and irredentist government, which had quickly turned into a military dictatorship. It had a rough history with their neighbour to the north, which had culminated in the 1995 Belkan War and the Waldreich Incident, where Belka detonated seven simultaneous nuclear warheads on their southern border.
Since 1995, Belka has become a constitutional monarchy, but has yet to fully recover from the devastation of the war. This, alongside continued disruptions to both internal and international order perpetrated by Belkan Nationalists, lead to the new government of Ustio capitalising on their former enemy’s weakness, and launching a full-scale invasion in early June 2025.
Pixy is hired by Belka, whom he had fought against for Ustio during the 1995 war, and placed on the newly formed Pendragon Squadron, and plays the role of Pendragon 2, alongside Pendragon 1, this game’s wingman.
The game follows[EXTRACT CORRUPTED]…
…[EXTRACT CONTINUES]leads to the Battle of Sudentor. Ustio marches through the city, a former Belkan possession which was now a large industrial hub for the neighbouring Osea, after the previous engagement and the embarrassing destruction of the G.R.A.I.L.; Belkan forces remain on the border and are attacked by Ustio while Ustio’s forces still remained in Sudentor. The disaster and Ustio’s subsequent defeat within another nation’s borders, predominantly due to the prowess of the Pendragon Squadron and the player character, is a catastrophic political disaster, predominantly caused by infighting within Ustio’s political and military leadership (including the usage of dated military maps and faulty GPS equipment within the head party of the retreating convoy). The embarrassment also results in Osea’s direct intervention.
Osea, officially the Osean Federation, is one of the primary superpowers of the Strangereal setting. Another former rival of Belka, and a former ally of Ustio, it currently plays a “world police” role in the world, primarily through the Peacekeeping forces of the IUN.
However, due to the Ustio government’s dictatorship and their severing of trade relations with the world, the Osea-Ustio relationship has since soured - and Osea had in fact condemned the Ustio invasion into Belka at the IUN Security Council.
Following the Battle of Sudentor , as seen depicted previously in Mission 11, Osea openly declares support for their old archenemy Belka, and the two former nemeses ally against Ustio. Osea also reveals in Mission 13 to the Belkan High Command, and the Pendragon Squadron that would be briefed later, that Ustio has come into possession of some of the former Belkan Federation’s WMDs - which explains how Ustio deployed the G.R.A.I.L. - which is another reason why Osea is now involved, in order to prevent the proliferation of illegal weapons.
In Mission 14, you[EXTRACT CORRUPTED]…
[EXTRACT CONTINUES]…and finally entering the hollow column of the rapidly collapsing ruined weapon to escape before it collapses, preventing the final usage by Ustio’s remaining forces who refused to acknowledge the ceasefire.
As Mission 24 was going on, the latter half also includes intercepted audio messages between one of the last remaining leaders of Ustio, and someone simply referred to as “the Manager”; where the leader offers as much as they can afford to deploy “your man” one last time. The Manager reluctantly agrees, but mentions to the leader that it’s only because “the guy has a good feeling about this battle… even if you people don’t”.
Your wingman congratulates Pixy (and, by extension, the player) on the victory, as the AWACS begins to command forces on the ground to begin capturing PoWs. As the wingman begins to land, he notices something approaching the player’s aircraft, and shouts to warn Pixy.
Pixy rolls his plane just in time to avoid a charged blast coming straight for him from behind. The camera zooms out, to reveal a single heavily modified Gründer Industries aircraft. A small segment of Spanish guitar music, alongside the faintest sound of a chuckle from the pilot, introduces the end of Mission 24, and the start of Mission 25 and the final boss.
Mission 25 begins with Pixy narrating a[EXTRACT CORRUPTED]…[EXTRACT CONTINUES]. This cutscene ends, and the mission begins in earnest.
As the player dodged increasingly dangerous projectiles and attacks from the foe, their AWACS ally begins to explain that the plane is an experimental ADFX-02B Mordred, a veritable super-plane capable of using EMP weaponry based on the G.R.A.I.L., a prototype tungsten-propelling rail-cannon, and a multitude of missiles. The AWACS begins to relay new intelligence from both Ustio’s former leaders that had since surrendered and/or defected, as well as former Belkan scientists, that the aircraft had been a barely functioning prototype built in the last days of the 1995 Belkan War, left to be mothballed by the newly created Gründer Industries, but later captured and re-engineered by Ustio’s own military regime. It is also revealed that the plane is being piloted by a mercenary hired by Ustio in the last days of their invasion, and believed to have been hired as a last resort for unbelievable expense while the last of the Ustio holdouts re-activate the backup generators of the ruined superweapon damaged in Mission 24. The Belkan scientists also reveal that the superweapon, originally destroyed in 1995 and now damaged in Mission 24, had a secondary but previously unused function - as a satellite relay for a dormant orbital weapons platform armed with a massive experimental particle cannon capable of refracting several beams of lasers at once, which is now being aimed at both Belkan cities as well as Osean cities, with casualties estimated in the millions.
Pixy simply chuckles at this - hinting clearly that he knows his opponent too well. The duel continues as Pixy narrates the battle above, while occasionally calling out to the enemy pilot, the mercenary with the callsign “Cipher”.
Finally, with one last joust that spirals upwards all the way to the Kármán Line, pushing both the player’s aircraft and the Mordred to their limits, Pixy manages to defeat the super-plane.
The two aircraft begin a rapid descent. It is here that the player can make one final choice for the game’s outcome - they can choose to fly alone, or to attempt to help their former opponent.
Pixy canonically chooses to assist Cipher, commenting that “two old men being the last fighters of the war again… you’ve gotten rusty, buddy”. What follows could be considered Mission 26, but is not labelled as such by the game, which involves keeping both aircraft afloat in order to attempt a safe landing.
(Note: the mission was later updated to give the player the option to have ‘assist mode’ on for this section, due to complaints of the mission being “too difficult” from a vocal minority of players; using assist mode in this mission, as with all other missions, restricts the player’s rank to B and lower).
As the mission begins to fade to black, as the player witnesses the scene of the two planes balancing wings to attempt the landing, Pixy issues another comment: “Still alive in there, buddy?”.
The response from the pilot is one single sigh, and the camera zooming to show a single thumbs-up from the opposing pilot.
The game ends, with audio over the end-credits revealing that a new treaty had been signed between Belka, Osea, and Ustio, signalling warming relations, a return to normal trade, and a permanent alliance between Osea, which is openly grateful for their former enemy’s assistance in the defence of Sudentor and the border, and Belka, which has regained some level of pride following this newest conflict.
A post-credits scene reveals an aged Pixy relaxing next to a runway, having a drink, and reading a document. As a large and somewhat futuristic plane begins the descent to the runway, the camera pans to the document; revealing it to be a contract to a company known as “General Resources Ltd.”
[Ace Combat 8: Broken Wings is the most recent Ace Combat entry in the Strangereal setting, released in 20XX, to almost universal acclaim. It has both a singleplayer campaign as well as an extensive multiplayer. It is also the most best-selling game in the franchise, and as of 20XX, the best-selling aircraft simulation game of all time.]
Thanks for reading this! Apologies for any errors, English is not my first language. Please rate 5 stars; and be sure to buy the game! Don’t just read this!!! XD”

The following particular segment focuses on a particular duel between two high-ranked players; and also included some flavour text for context.]

Somewhere in the former Middle East. A darkened room with the curtains drawn, under a duvet.
“Heh. If it’s a fight you want…” A voice says with a laugh.

AWACS Sunshine: <<Thirty seconds remaining! Get it together!>>
[The video feed shows a MiG-35 and an F-4 Phantom II having an intense dogfight, spiralling around the central structure of the multiplayer map.]
———
“So… who’s winning, bestie?” Another voice speaks gleefully.
“Oi. I’m concentrating.”
———
“…”
“Do you mind? I don’t want the smoke detectors going off…” The same voice whinges, spluttering a bit on the smoke fumes from a pipe being used in the back of the room.

“A draw!?” That gleeful yet grating voice again. “Seriously, you and that other guy were properly having a go, huh?”
“That was pretty awesome though, especially their post-stall manoeuvre around the bend of the tower… Damn though, this game is good. Not usually a plane-game- player, but…” The other voice murmurs, before yawning.
———
===
[Meanwhile.]
“…/:£:@@~€$$_^*+[[]]{><}/!?!/…” The figure with the pipe exclaimed.
“…Reminds me of the old days. Haven’t had a laugh like that since Haruka and I played the old—” The voice under the duvet murmured melancholically, before being interrupted by a knock on their door.
The pipe-smoking figure shook an unseen appendage, and vanished from within the darkness.
The duvet made a grunt, put down the console, and slowly trudged to the door, opening it.
A smartly dressed woman stood at the door, a hand placed solemnly on the sword by her side.
“My liege, you’re late for the dinner wi-with… what…” Satsuki began to declare, until her eyes focused and looked up and down the duvet, which had now sprouted an unkempt head of fluffy white hair.
“…sorry, I’ll… get dressed… and…” Hazuki managed to spit out between yawns.
“Warmaster… have you been playing that new game… since you bought it YESTERDAY?!” Satsuki spoke, with an increasingly incredulous tone.
Hazuki wiped some sleepy ‘eye gunk’ from her face, with a somewhat bemused whimper. “…perhaps.”
“PERHAPS?! Perhaps you should consider the ramifications of such a thing!” Satsuki managed to spit out, while struggling to hide a grin.
“Ramifications, blamifications, who fuckin’ cares…” Hazuki groggily whined.
At this, Satsuki finally snapped, giving a large stomp that caused even the barely-functioning Warmaster a jump.
“Warmaster, you should care because of your public image! You’re an international leader for both mortals and for our kin!” Satsuki began to explain. “Like, for instance, can you IMAGINE the backlash if, say, a Saturday morning gossip magazine managed to get some candid shots of you here?”
Hazuki narrowed her eyes… sort of. They were still pretty gunged up, so it was less of an irritated sneer and more of a cat having just been rescued from a tree.
Satsuki took note of this, and tutted. “Or, perhaps, if a gaming journalist… is that still a thing? I don’t know… if a journalist managed to, say, get a photo of a certain girl with a cliché idol face-mask and sunglasses look using a fake ID to purchase a copy of the game on release day, after having waiting for the shop to open…?”
Satsuki explained this, while slowly taking a phone out of her pocket, and revealing a video taken in the early hours of the morning, showing an oddly familiar figure surreptitiously sneaking around the corner of a dated-looking shop, tip-toeing into the store with an embarrassed look-around, and slowly walking up to the front desk.
“Oioioioioioioiwhat-the-FUCK—!!” Hazuki managed to get out, before being physically shushed by Satsuki with a single finger to her lips.
“Warmaster. This is the only copy of this video. If you want to KEEP it as the only copy…” Satsuki said with a soft smile, before lifting her finger back up, and placing her hand gently on the older-but-much-smaller girl’s shoulder.
“Please consider getting some rest.” She said softly, with a rare hint of care in her tone. “Neither your citizens nor the Officio want to see our glorious leader looking like a dishevelled NEET on national television.”
She lifted her hand back up, and turned away from the door, ignoring the amused look on the sleepy Warmaster’s face. “I was going to ask why you were being so late for the dinner with the Swedish delegation, but… I suppose I’ll tell them that you’ve come down with the flu.”
Hazuki managed to get out a hoarse whisper, as her body was finally realising how knackered she was. “Spare…meatballs…please…if…”
Satsuki chuckled. “Fine. I’ll make sure the chefs have some spare Swedish meatballs to get snuck up to you. Now, please, Warmaster, get some rest… or I’ll get the Equerry.”
Hazuki visibly gagged at the sound of that. “Not the birds… anything but the birds…”
Satsuki walked away down the corridor, not saying another word, while the Warmaster closed shut the ornate door to the bedroom.
“She’s been pretty good recently. Still, my election of Karasawa-san was primarily political in nature, and she still hasn’t quite warmed to the role…” The Warmaster thought to herself as she slowly trudged to the mess of a bed, still covered in her duvet. “I have faith in her, though, just as I do Satsuki. Should one fail, the other can catch up.”
She turned the game console off, and placed it to one side, as she opened a window to let a cold night breeze in, before tucking herself back into bed.
“Still… All’s well, I suppose. And that game… was… fun…” Hazuki managed to think to herself, humming a dirty from ‘pènsees’, before losing track and finally nodding off to sleep.
She would later make a mental note that it was one of the best sleeps she’d ever had - not even disturbed by her usual memories of life that intruded - and the only thing she recalled was dreaming of a dark blue sky, with seagulls squawking while a small cat chased down a human figure with a nostalgically familiar face.
