Aaalright, halfway there

i think that the egonis more ot do with

#

this canto being very big on hybridization

atomic steeple
#

||lmao valencina wanted to bully greg and he hatched||

stoic fjord
#

I mean yeah but also there's no burn sinking anywhere

#

let alone for Yi Sang

neat cedar
#

I mean

#

it's mainly a burn ego

cosmic gorge
#

Brinking

#

Steaming

neat cedar
#

sinking is a bonus

stoic fjord
#

I guess......

neat cedar
#

but the main benefits are in the passive for sinking

local sinner does NOT give heads

I love her

Huh, thought greg ||would go bug monster during outis canto||
I wonder why ||so both sinclair and greg are having such moments together. Was expecting mostly sinclair||

mystic ermine

YEEEES

Is ||valencina from eastern thumb or southern||

atomic steeple
#

What is an excision coin?

#

My gods, my clashing sucks

stoic fjord
#

it's just occured to me that ||The Roach Emperor Gregor was probably trying to hold back or otherwise not going all out during that fight given his panic name||

cloud wadi
#

Don’t let Vergil clash it

atomic steeple
#

Oh no

cloud wadi
#

Eat damage if you have to

stoic fjord
cloud wadi
#

In fact it’s probably better on the long run to lose clashes against excision coins

#

Do NOT attempt to clash it with red coins of any description

mystic ermine
#

Such innocence

cloud wadi
#

Or else it’ll roll around 80-100 including in the damage phase and obliterate you all

mystic ermine
#

it brings a tear to my eye

||That was Ryoshu's entire purpose to the fingers||

cloud wadi
#

Yeah the entire ||spider house things are the equivalent of fighting some gang members in a basement||

neat cedar
#

||To act as a conceptal paper shredeer||

cloud wadi

Next canto if my prediction is right ||will have us face off against an entire state apparatus of a Wing||

||You are working withbthenrichest woman innthe world why would you need to be worried if urnfresh gear needs to be inspected||

I’m like ||my guys it’s owned by motherfucking Dias, she loves that kind of shit||

Not to mention it’s the freaking city, it runs on almost pure “fuck you got mine” energy

Just because ||one sinner doesn’t get what they want doesn’t mean others would automatically think they won’t get what they want||

Each and every ||single one of them thinks they are special and knows exactly what they are getting out of the deal||

The contract is fulfilled

according to buddhism, arayashiki / alaya-vinjana is the primordial level of consciousness from which thoughts arise, where sensory impressions are stored

mystic ermine

Damnit

aaand she's at 45sp

crimson spindle

it's kind of like the fundamental underlying "you" under your immediate experiences

so the EGO Arayashiki is basically the you that cannot be erased, which persists regardless of memories and experiences

somewhat the subconscious, somewhat karma, somewhat the idea of the soul

Canto 9 spoilers all: ||which is why even if Ryoshu sunders every last memory of Araya, her daughter is fundamentally a part of her that can't be removed or taken from her by anything||

crimson spindle

also ||ryoshu remains ryoshu even if she's destroyed every memory||

||oh also SANGRIA coming from her daughter actually fucking destroyed me||

they aren't truly gone, just buried into the alaya-vinjana, where they affect your other 7 consciousnesses

||This is an all-out slugfest where Ryoshu's gotta survive no matter what, so if you have to take hits, your other Sinners are taking them, not her. Foredestined means you have to take clashes on certain Sinners sometimes, so you'll have to adjust and plan around it when that happens. When the phase transition happens you're basically locked in to either winning or losing, from now on it's just a matter of doing everything you can to win clashes and try to manage Bladetrail stacks||
