Some Hans POV

// This is my RPG Post as Hans; translated to English - also why does ist "sound" better in german urg //

Context: After KCD2 Henry&Hans visit Skalitz. Henry to rebuild it - Hans because Henry offered he could join also Henry left after Hans kiss (because pain is good, right?)

________

Bloodshot eyes slowly opened in the rising light of the morning sun as Hans let out a quiet groan. What he wouldn’t give for just a few hours of restful sleep, yet far too many thoughts had kept him awake through the night. Skalitz was different from what he had imagined. Or perhaps it had simply been Henry’s bleak descriptions that had created a certain picture in his mind - One that did not match what they had found here. At least the castle's stone walls had survived, though stonemasons and carpenters had been working for days to repair the remaining damage. In his tent, Hans longed for a real bed in a real room, but many parts of the castle were still uninhabitable —so a makeshift camp had been set up for the lords. Still, it was a better situation than what the workers had to "endure".

Yet the blond-haired man wondered if accepting the offer had been a mistake. On one hand, he had no desire to return to Rattay —not right now, at least— but on the other, the distance that had grown between him and Henry in recent days felt greater here than anywhere else. But it wasn’t just his heart that kept him awake. It was the dreams — dreams of arrows, of screams and pain, of gnawing hunger, and of those damned bells tolling.

With a sigh, the young lord squeezed his eyes shut before sitting up, pausing for a moment in a hunched posture on his makeshift bed. At least Hanush had sent some workers and supplies in the past few days to speed up the repairs in Skalitz — perhaps Hans had something to do with it, though he had not spoken of it. Another oddity, just like the fact that he was avoiding everyone he possibly could at the moment.

Yesterday, however, when he had returned from a ride, Zizka had intercepted him and dragged him to the improvised tavern below the castle, where Katherine had wordlessly placed a plate of food and a cup of wine in front of him. Even though he hadn’t felt like eating, he had let Zizka distract him, and shortly before midnight, he had stumbled back to his tent in a clearly unsteady state. Unfortunately, even alcohol couldn’t chase his dreams away.

Wasting few thoughts on the previous evening, Hans slid out of bed and grabbed his clothes from the chest to his right before dressing. Just as he pulled his red hood over his head, his stomach made itself known. Well, it was still early. Far too early by Hans’ standards. Oh, how he longed for long, restful sleep. But as his stomach growled once more so he shook off his thoughts and made his way toward the supply tent. Even though there was a cooking station not far from his own tent, he didn’t want to wait for a servant to pass by—nor did he want to risk sitting at a table with Radzig and getting caught in a conversation about his future.

If he had to hear one more time how happy everyone was that he would soon be married and how wonderful the whole thing was, he would gladly hang himself —No bells, no executioner needed.

It wasn’t that he hadn’t known this would happen eventually, but he had thought he still had time… Time for adventure, for glory and honor, time with… Lost in thought, his feet carried him toward the supply tent while the cool morning air sent a slight shiver down his spine. Everything was quiet and peaceful, yet he couldn’t bring himself to feel at ease. By the time he arrived, he was so lost in thought that he didn’t even notice he wasn’t the only one awake this early.

With tunnel vision, Hans entered the tent, searching for a loaf of bread, some sausage, and cheese. It didn’t take long before he found what he needed and stepped back outside. As he looked up, considering whether to return to his tent, he spotted Henry sitting on one of the tree stumps in the center of the camp. For a moment, Hans weighed his chances of slipping away unnoticed, but that decision was taken from him by an excited, foolish Mutt that had turned his body toward him, barking happily and wagging his tail.

Cursing inwardly, Hans’ gaze flicked toward Henry, and before he could lose his nerve, he said in a rough voice, “Good morning. Shouldn’t you still be in bed?”

To be honest, even though Hans had kept his distance, that didn’t mean he wasn’t aware that Henry had been working day and night. Though he had never gone to the forge, he knew well enough that Henry was pushing himself hard. It was good that he was helping - But Hans feared he might work himself to death. Surely, other blacksmiths could take on some of the burden.

I love the licensed doctor who ttrpg where the author clearly has some sort of personal disdain towards non human or campy player characters but contractually can't exclude them (on account of it's doctor who) so instead opts to passive aggressively bully people out of playing aliens and having funny names

i think if you’re doing mirabelle’s rpg. you have to put isat right in the middle. i think it should go like… she goes through vaugarde collecting the orbs and noticing all these mysteries about her companions and mourning all the frozen towns, and she wants to get to know her friends better, and figure out what’s bothering them and help with it, and go do fun touristy things with them, etc etc, but they have a country to save. there’s no time, and everything is frozen. if that wasn’t the case, they wouldn’t even be traveling together at all! and the whole time mirabelle’s struggling with anxiety and imposter syndrome and the weight of being The Savior. she has to fix things but she can’t, she wants to help her friends but she can’t, she has to change but she doesn’t want to. she’s getting a bad grade in rpg protagonist!!!

but then we hit isat. and you expect it to be the culmination of mirabelle’s arc, but she’s not ready for that yet, just like she’s felt unprepared and unworthy all game, stuck in this role, under the weight of everyone’s expectations — of course doing the thing everyone wants her to do can’t be mirabelle’s defining moment, no matter how much she also believes in the importance of the quest. when she vanquishes the king, it doesn’t actually fix any of her personal problems. it wasn’t even really about her.

instead, the focus of this event is on siffrin, since it turns out the unchanging king was his foil all along, not mirabelle’s. mysteries are answered about both siffrin and the king, but more importantly — this is the turning point for everyone. the result of the most seemingly-stand-offish character’s arc is the key to making progress in everyone else’s: the party admits they care about each other and decides to keep traveling together.

the second half of the game, then, is going backwards through vaugarde, visiting all the same places again. and now that they’re not on their blessed quest in the name of change, they DO have time and they ARE all officially friends. everyone gets a little arc, echoing the five orbs, starting with isat as siffrin’s. they’re still clearing out sadnesses — and there’s some really strong ones as everyone takes stock of how much time has passed and how much damage has been done — but they don’t respawn anymore. people are starting to recover! and instead of dungeon puzzles, there’s fetch quests and mini games as the party helps vaugarde rebuild. a lot of the quests relate to things they saw while frozen, a bunch of mysteries and tragedies that they can finally DO something about. and in the same way, the family can finally get closer and talk about important things and meet each other’s friends/family and share their interests etc etc, all these old mysteries and maybe-some-days getting resolved!

and then, finally. mirabelle has been doing work that she CHOSE, helping vaugarde rebuild. and sometimes people use the opportunity to rebuild differently, but sometimes people just want the same familiar things back, and that’s not actually bad, it’s nothing like being frozen. you can keep living in the same house but making new memories, fixing things as needed, both different and the same. and mirabelle realizes that she doesn’t need to change. she realizes she has changed, and she will keep changing, but she can stay the same the whole time too. she doesn’t need to be what people expect, not the perfect housemaiden or the rpg protagonist savior. she can just strive to be the best version of herself!!

and that’s the end of the game, bc mirabelle isn’t trying to figure out how to do everything right to win the game anymore. she’s just living ^^

"Yeah, no, you do need high testosterone for geneseed implantation to take, but the geneseed doesn't care where the T comes from. Actually, loyalist chapters tend to preferentially select candidates with XX karotypes because the redundant X chromosome confers greater resistance to Chaos mutations, so statistically most Space Marines are transmasc. What? Of course it's canon – would I lie to you?"
