split beacon
#

wisdom of all worlds

neat cedar
#

i just mean that

#

Hermann's plans for him

split beacon
#

in order to complete the primordial man

neat cedar
#

might be nidhogg adjacent

#

whether or not that is like

#

his end goal

#

narratively

#

i'm less certain

cloud wadi
#

he'll be Leviathan

neat cedar
#

not to mention the mention of istletoe

#

once again

#

we're going ot be close to salvation

split beacon
#

lol the fucking mistletoe bud from the tree

neat cedar
#

AND SOMEONE"S GONNA FUCK IT UP

#

EVERY FUCKING TIME

cloud wadi
neat cedar
#

IT"S THE SAME STORY KJH

cloud wadi
#

he's a king who wears a cloak made of tiny swarming things

neat cedar
#

yeee

vagrant dove
#

Can't believe Vergilius will say "This truly was our leviathan" before sacrificing himself to defeat Primordial Gregor

cloud wadi
#

that's strikingly similar to the image of the Leviathan in Hobbs Leviathan

neat cedar
#

i love games that make me wish i was a classics major

#

drive me fuckin insane everytime

vagrant dove
#

I do classics and I'm not through with the PM reading list

cloud wadi
#

i think his true form is supposed to be much much much much bigger

neat cedar
#

i can believe it

cloud wadi
#

when he fully unwraps his gift he'll be a giant towering over the city

#

you can see it in his intro art actually

cloud wadi
neat cedar
#

. . .

cloud wadi
#

yeah

neat cedar
#

oh

#

oh you can

worthy haven
cloud wadi
#

he's as tall as the City

#

with tiny men in the shape of roaches scurrying at his feet

#

in his Fathoms you can also see titanic G Corp war forms towering over buildings in the background

vagrant dove
# worthy haven where you at atm

Most pertinently I need to do Dream of the Red Chamber and Faust for the main Sinner stuff, and I have various other stuff to get my hands on

worthy haven
#

hmhm

vagrant dove
#

(Like more Jung)

neat cedar
#

the only booki've read is hellscreen

#

which honestly

#

really glad I did

#

def put me in the proper frame of mind

neat cedar
#

for interacting with canto 9

vagrant dove
#

I like long books honestly

neat cedar
#

will prob try to read the stranger before canto 10

worthy haven
#

echoing my sentiment about how fucking whacky and exhausting Faust part 2 can be

neat cedar
#

I just don't have as much time as i used to

worthy haven
#

but its def worth it

neat cedar
#

if i was still in high school

#

i'd prob def be trying to read through the whole PM classics list

worthy haven
#

I will def get to it once i have am more downtime

neat cedar
#

the book i'm both

#

interested in

#

and scared to read

#

is demian

worthy haven
#

Hermann Hesse you freak (affectionate?)

neat cedar
#

mainly because everything about demian makes it sound like a very yeah

#

that

cloud wadi
#

herr man

vagrant dove
#

He who wishes to freak (affectionate) must first write Demian or something

cloud wadi
#

The Man

karmic escarp
cloud wadi
#

we are fighting The Man next canto

neat cedar
#

i wish I could say I'm sorry for spreading my mental corrsion to you hero

#

but I am not

#

more need to have this brain bug

#

hehe

#

brain bug

vagrant dove
#

I mean we are probably going to be dealing with Society (as in Meursault's alienation from the world around him), so we are literally fighting the Man

karmic escarp
#

eheh

cloud wadi
#

let's stab gregor to daeth with axes

vagrant dove
#

From a certain point of view

karmic escarp
#

lets be really niceys to gregor đŸ„ș

worthy haven
#

petition for Mersaults ego moment to be Armor clad faith /j

vagrant dove
#

Also I do want to see Meursault's canto because uh

#

Autistic

worthy haven
#

SOCIETY

vagrant dove
#

So I resonate heavily with a lot of his behaviour THAT ISN'T THE MURDER

worthy haven
#

I am really curious about that ye

vagrant dove
#

To be clear

worthy haven
#

since his communication style is so unique amongst the sinners

vagrant dove

vagrant dove
#

The Prescript Knows Best

karmic escarp
#

it's overwhelmingly his left eye

neat cedar
#

the opposite side of his arm

#

||the one that rodya saw humanity in||

vagrant dove
#

I'm inclined to think it isn't a fluke

neat cedar
#

it's def not a fluke

vagrant dove
#

Hong Lu has the stomach thing with his ego

neat cedar
#

but what it could mean is still

#

very unclear

cloud wadi
neat cedar
#

i like my theory but i'm also very less scertain of it since we now have actual like, gods of the city

cloud wadi
#

"How do I stab someone to death with a hatchet"

split beacon
#

It's barely a weapon, but it's better than a fork

neat cedar
#

better than a fpoon

vagrant dove
#

Fpoon or spork, cast your votes now

cloud wadi
#

apparently hermes really liked the john wick trilogy

#

he should find it fortunate it did not tell him to kill 3 people with a pencil

vagrant dove
#

"I once saw Roland kill 3 middle brothers with a fork."

#

"A fucking- fork."

#

-Hermes, probably

cloud wadi
#

I love that Rien intentionally held off on fulfilling that prescript until the very end of the deadline because he really really desperately was hoping Hermes would give him a better tool than a fork

dusty sigil
#

Best part is that it started as a knife

#

Dude delayed so Hermes decided to play a prank and change it to a knife

stoic fjord
#

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4KaEKEVHZ0I

he's getting his shit ran by the base IDs...

dusty sigil
#

Honestly it’s awesome how the will of the city seemed to have a sense of humor when it came to Rien lol

#

The thing pranked him pretty much

#

Multiple times

vagrant dove
#

No wonder he recited O Fortuna honestly

stoic fjord
#

simultaneously awesome and deeply depressing

karmic escarp
#

the favor of a god is a fickle thing, after all...

neat cedar
#

yerp

#

to be loved by the gods is to be doomed

karmic escarp
#

also saw something on odin's wikipedia page trying to figure out which eye he lost (unspecified unfortunately) that made me feel insane but there was no direct link to the source sited

neat cedar
#

source: LITERALLY EVERY GREEK MYTH

karmic escarp
#

and i have no idea how PM sources its reading stuff for concepting

cosmic gorge
#

I have an idea

karmic escarp
#

so it probably means literally nothing
but

#

Canto 11 ||outis euthanizes Greg/Polyphemus temporarily, this kills the kaiseroach and Zeus/Hermann retaliates by attacking Outis' family||

vagrant dove
#

It would be poseidon as hermann in this analogy, since polyphemus calls on poseidon explicitly

#

The funniest thing is about that episode

#

Odysseus could have avoided being cursed

#

If he hadn't started detailing who he was to the Cyclops

#

An idea so stupid his own men were trying to get him to sgut up

#

But of course, you can't win heroic kleos if you do something and noone knows you did it

lean fjord
#

man just had to dox himself

vagrant dove
#

Yeah he straight up goes

cloud wadi
#

Hermes really just has some sick sense of humor

vagrant dove
#

"I'm Odysseus, my dad's Laertes"

cloud wadi
#

That’s the best part about him

vagrant dove
#

"Btw i'm from Ithaca"

#

Which is what allows Polyphemus to tell his dad (Poseidon) exactly who to make miserable for the next few years

#

“So they spoke, but they could not persuade my great-hearted spirit; and I answered him again with angry heart: “‘Cyclops, if any one of mortal men shall ask thee about the shameful blinding of thine eye, say that Odysseus, the sacker of cities, blinded it, even the son of Laertes, whose home is in Ithaca.’

cloud wadi
#

Outis really committed murder an dropped her driver’s license, passport, insurance card, and birth certificate at the scene of the crime

vagrant dove
#

Ryoshu's VAs fav character being Lei heng

also

vagrant dove
#

There's just so much there

neat cedar
#

inthink the funniest part of the canto

vagrant dove
neat cedar
#

is all of the chinese fans ||Fucking despising the font choice for ryoshu's new scabbard apparently||

#

||It's apparently like really jarringly generic||

stoic fjord
#

from what I understand, it's almost like a corporate vibes kinda font

#

someone sent an example of what something similar for Heathcliff's bat would look like with the same kind of generic font?

#

I think?

jaunty jay
#

Aprox like using helvetica?

karmic escarp
#

yeah

ebon forge
#

it'd be like using ariel lol

neat cedar

crazy work

#

very funny

||god i could only imagine seeing the ending cutscene, and how the hype would instsntly turn into "Bro what the fuck is this"||

#

lol

stoic fjord
#

everyone else is so much smarter than me 😭

cosmic gorge
# dusty sigil

Gotta replace "remorse of conscience" with something else canto9 specific

split beacon
#

It’s a skill

stoic fjord
#

anyways yeah pretty much

#

I do feel like I've gotten better at this since engaging with this chat more

split beacon
#

👍

stoic fjord
#

I still don't really have much knowledge to work with but I'm getting better at the actual skills I think

ebon forge
#

seriously though, all the nursefathers were blind to the things they desired or the things they wanted to do in favor of something they believed to be absolute

#

like, Val absolutely loved Lucio, but she was completely blinded by "ticket" and her desire for glory

#

if she realized it, she could've been happy

stoic fjord
cloud wadi
#

I don’t think there’s a world out there where Valencina could be happy

split beacon
#

She did, in her own stupid, fucked up way

cloud wadi
#

But she could have been satisfied

stoic fjord
#

I do think she cared but I don't know that it would ever be something happy or healthy

split beacon
#

Valencina is clearly a complicated person

#

Like that’s not a joke either, she’s got jelly in her jam and it shows

ebon forge
stoic fjord
#

I want to punch her in the face but also I understand the depth of character and all that

I just also really wanna fucking punch her upside the head

ebon forge
#

she's way more than just a simple love, but i cant express it easily

split beacon
#

All of the Nursefathers had a similar issue in that they didn’t know how to love or care for another person because none of them can love or care for themselves lol

cloud wadi
#

Unlike Mathias

#

Her loyalty to her family is real

split beacon
#

They’re all failures because they all abandoned themselves

cloud wadi
#

No matter how much she complains about them

jaunty jay
#

The thought of "Valencina is a tiger mom" bounced in my head and physically convulsed with how much it fits.

ebon forge
#

she is!

cloud wadi
#

All of her action is done because she wants to return to them

#

Her panic is how she’s the shame of her family

stray sleet
#

She was also clearly someone who lived in the past a lot, and was desperate to get back to her glory days

cloud wadi
#

Being shamed and away from her family eats at her

#

It’s all she cares about

ebon forge
#

she's really just stuck in her own past yeah

cloud wadi
#

Yeah but it also does show

#

Family is important to her

ebon forge
#

it might be more accurate to say that val is too lost in her past to focus on her actual present

cloud wadi
#

It’s a lever that you can use to empathize with her

ebon forge
#

where she has lucio

split beacon
#

All of the Nursefathers in their own way have a deeply rooted failure that eats away at them and keeps them from loving someone else properly

cloud wadi
#

And maybe get her to empathize with you

gentle mulch
#

hm. wasn't able to realize it and got lucio killed. mods cut her with the blade that severs all.

#

the thumbs manifestation of love--i have the same reaction as angela did upon meeting them

ebon forge
#

it feels like somehow, all the fingers are a fucked up form of longing

split beacon
#

Callisto is a hot mess who NEEDS artistic validation, the Dihui Star was chained down and desperately wanted to run free, Matthias needs to feel special and like he has wonderful things, and Rien, well

#

Rien is a catastrophic failure of a Proxy

#

With no faith in himself

ebon forge
#

Callisto needs a friend

gentle mulch
#

callisto needs like.

split beacon
#

no Callisto has artist brainrot

ebon forge
#

and maybe estrogen

split beacon
#

he needs people on his level who can tell him "that's fucking stupid dude"

ebon forge
#

exactly! a friend!

gentle mulch
#

regular acknowledgement and firmly placed critique

ebon forge
#

hohenheim wouldve made an amazing friend now that i think about it

gentle mulch
#

the good ending where hohenheim says why dont you make art with abnos instead when we suppress them and he goes ohhh the ephemerality of it all ohhh the cycle of slaughter ohh ohh ohhhh and combusts into love world

split beacon
#

He's clearly stuck tracing circles around himself forever musing on art but never getting out of his own perspective

split beacon
#

and Albina can't validate him

#

because of master-slave dialectic. and stuff.

gentle mulch
#

and then mellows the fuck out on account of being the closest thing to a salvageable nursefather

split beacon
#

eh?

#

the most salvageable one to me is Rien as stupid as that sounds

#

he's constantly on the borderline of getting it

ebon forge
#

rien needs someone to tell him to get a grip

split beacon
#

which, I guess could also be the most damning thing

ebon forge
#

and become the one that grips

gentle mulch
#

There's something about someone being really

#

yeah

split beacon
#

because he keeps missing it

gentle mulch
#

someone being really close to getting it that unfortunately

#

makes them more likely to miss it more ime

stoic fjord
cosmic gorge
split beacon
#

no no the Index gives you meaning

#

he needs faith

gentle mulch
#

rien needs a Benjamin intervention

split beacon
#

like genuinely he is lacking the faith that an Index Proxy needs

dusty sigil
#

Hell

gentle mulch
#

"what is religion to you" hokmaballs would fix him

split beacon
#

Shiomi doesn't need salvaging she did what she needed to do as best as she could

stoic fjord
split beacon
#

is she a corrosive mess? absolutely

dusty sigil
#

She just needed to stop resenting Ryoshu and realize what was actually keeping her from walking the earth and burn the house to the ground

gentle mulch
#

shiomi doesn't count. justified crashout

#

tragic

cosmic gorge
#

Was Albina even closer to self realization comapred to Callie

keen palm
#

Shiomi needed medication

dusty sigil
stoic fjord
dusty sigil
#

Shiomi did nothing wrong

split beacon
#

no she did things wrong

#

but not things we can really

#

you know

keen palm
#

She slapped a baby

split beacon
#

go "nah just don't"

#

I think Valencina was mostly the babyslapper

keen palm
#

Shiomi did as well i think

gentle mulch
#

maybe starting out with "mommy is that you" might have helped

dusty sigil
#

I thought that was more Valencia’s area

split beacon
#

wait wait

keen palm
#

I could be fulfilling themes of Canto 9 by having an unreliable memory

split beacon
#

"what would fix the nursefathers"

stoic fjord
#

I think Dihui just told her that showing any sadness was not acceptable because she had no reason to feel the same sorrow as her

#

it was mostly emotional harm

#

Valencina was the main one who actually hit ryoshu physically iirc

gentle mulch
#

Matthias needs to grow the fuck up and die

#

fixed

dusty sigil
gentle mulch
#

Valencina. Fixed

#

Shiomi. fixed.
Dihui Star. Still working on it

keen palm
#

Matthias needed a universal basic income as a child

ebon forge
gentle mulch
#

uhh

#

Callisto. a single reality check

dusty sigil
#

Unfortunately I think estrogen would make Rien and Matthias worse

#

Callisto though?

gentle mulch
#

Rien. Hokma

dusty sigil
#

That could do some good

#

Assuming there is any affect at all

split beacon
#

Valencina - look. not everyone's straightforwardly fixable. I think at this point you need to like, quit your job, find something else in life, raise your kid, I dunno
Rien - BENJAMIN INTERVENTION
Matthias - they need to force this man to go to high school or something
Callisto - god. dude you need to go back to university. talk to people. join a club or something
Shiomi - burn the fucking House of Spiders to the ground

keen palm
#

Callisto is fine if you just change the arbitrary need for gore and corpses

ebon forge
#

also

#

make Callisto a teacher

#

deadass

#

you could fix him with one simple career path change

dusty sigil
#

Callisto honestly was another case of the house itself stifling growth

gentle mulch
dusty sigil
#

Like he said, he hasn’t had a visitor to his gallery in years

keen palm
#

Callisto needed a friend

split beacon
#

no Callisto was also a hack before

dusty sigil
#

Art without the input of others stagnates

gentle mulch
#

You laugh you go to high school

split beacon
#

they just like, actually need to force Callisto to talk to his peers

#

critique someone else's art

keen palm
#

Callisto DID

split beacon
#

get called a bitch a bunch

gentle mulch
#

Callisto needs to like

#

actually learn how to make art for himself without killing people

#

it's possible

keen palm
#

Callisto's problems were inflicted upon him not self inflicted beyond his unwillingness to change

gentle mulch
#

surprising i know

stoic fjord
#

I honestly think that with the way the Ring is, it was unlikely he would've grown had he talked to his peers anyways

split beacon
#

long story short just send him to The Ring's art critique cock and ball torture room

keen palm
#

Like he could happily talk and take criticism

stoic fjord
#

I do not think the Ring genuinely engages with art on a meaningful level

dusty sigil
#

Like, they have to have a gimmick

gentle mulch
#

KILL ALL ARTISTS shirt.png

stoic fjord
#

anyways I've been staring at this for like an hour now

ebon forge
#

thats kinda why i want him to be a teacher

dusty sigil
#

Who was very critical of his art

split beacon
#

SEND HIM TO THE ASSISTANT PROFESSOR MINES

#

TENURE: REVOKED

gentle mulch
#

Honestly

stoic fjord
#

he was only disappointed because Hohenheim was just using it as a distraction

#

so like

gentle mulch
#

Callisto could be Sora

cosmic gorge
split beacon
#

actually yeah I'm changing my answer

stoic fjord
#

he's genuinely happy to hear people shittalk his art because it means he can learn something from it and try and make his art better, from what I understand

dusty sigil
ebon forge
#

like, seriously, a teacher would be INCREDIBLE on callisto

split beacon
#

for callisto what would fix him is losing his tenure

dusty sigil
#

Even as Hohenheim called his stuff trite and uninspired

gentle mulch
#

"If I perform work on Nothing There...I get to be assistant to Hohenheim, right?"

ebon forge
#

imagine being able to just make art, teach people about it, and have people shit on your stuff and be able to watch them improve on that

stoic fjord
gentle mulch
#

put him in there

split beacon
#

like allegorically, taking the art mob murder stuff out of the picture and just talking about the metaphor

cosmic gorge
ebon forge
#

he's a wet cat

split beacon
#

Callisto is just a really regressed stagnant art prof

cosmic gorge
#

And making that elevation an institution is pretentious

split beacon
#

who's been rotting in his studio

#

for years

gentle mulch
#

wait

#

hold on

#

I'm gonna cook something nasty good for Callisto

#

drum roll

#

Callisto needs a trip to a warp train with WRyoshu

stoic fjord
#

it's like. idk.

I feel like ironically, I might consider Callisto's "school" closest to being something interesting and legitimate

#

not because I think it's actually good

gentle mulch
#

it'd be perfect for him

ebon forge
#

ngl of all the nursefathers

stoic fjord
gentle mulch
#

legitimately that would make him so happy

ebon forge
#

i want callisto to be happiest the most

cosmic gorge
#

Oh hey i just realized

What with Ring stuff expanded in this canto i now have more fuel for limbus OC greg heffley

split beacon
#

for me it's gotta be Rien because he's just so

stoic fjord
stoic fjord
#

I feel like it could be so much more interesting

split beacon
#

that dude Rien is so much closer to like

#

having a life

stoic fjord
#

Rien is actually so fucking close it makes me mad

split beacon
#

well, Valencina is in second there she's literally just miserable and washed

gentle mulch
#

Rien is ragebaiting hermes so they had to hit him w the fpoon

stoic fjord
gentle mulch
#

Valencina could use a few bugfixes

split beacon
#

you know what would unironically fix Valencina

#

the mirror world where she just quits and like

split beacon
#

becomes an office rep or something

gentle mulch
#

probably would help a lot

#

Honestly

look

#

I think bullying is wrong

split beacon

but also Matthias like

stoic fjord
split beacon
#

needed to grow up with the constant threat of getting missile dropkicked by another human being approximately his age who lives with him all the time

stray sleet
#

I hope they're together at least

split beacon
#

ie have a real actual sibling

cloud wadi
#

Matthias is the bully in this metaphor

#

Except he’s too much of a coward to ever admit that he’s a bully

vagrant dove
cloud wadi
#

Middle as an organization if you ask me is defined by that cowardice

split beacon
#

I mean yeah and Matthias is the worst of those types of cowards

vagrant dove
#

But yeah this canto has made me think a lot more about the Fingers in general

ebon forge
#

the middle all long for true bravery and chivalry...

this is why Don Quixote should become the Greatest Sister of the Middle and reform the organization

Yeah the longer canto 9 sits with me the more I like it, there's a lot going on and it's all very good

faint pivot

It's real funny how the NF rose to their level despite being the most oppositional to their respective...dogmas?

#

I'm not sure where I remember this from but wasn't there a scene where a Thumb capo was betrayed by a soldato

#

Cause the latter wanted to take their place

cloud wadi
#

No

gentle mulch

because angela was like oh okay that doesn't sound so bad and flipped to "all of you are fucking insane dogs i hope you die. may you find your book." while still "inhuman"

#

That’s a gyulmung fanfic

#

Ah I see I see

You are referring to a gyulmung fanfic featuring revenge

But I don’t doubt it happens

gentle mulch
cloud wadi
#

Thumb does sound like a pit of snakes

keen palm
#

I mean you give a guy a gun and he might shoot you eventually

I would imagine a lot of them have internal mindset like Lucio

And thinking to themselves

This time, this time I'll shoot him...

“Yes”

ebon forge
#

what happens if you do kill one tho

cloud wadi
#

“Today is the day I fucking kill this guy”

split beacon
cloud wadi
#

But never actually do

vagrant dove
#

You die horribly probably

#

For daring to shoot a superior

cloud wadi
#

Shooting a superior is technically not a crime

#

As then the thumb wouldn’t be able to shoot enemies of higher status

#

They didn’t have any issue with surprise ambushing hong lu with intent to kill

Lying to a superior is a crime

#

But trying to kill a superior isn’t

vagrant dove
#

Yeah but in context, it would be a higher ranked member of the Thumb

#

Not someone outside

#

I imagine the rule is different

cloud wadi
#

The rules don’t seem to make distinctions actually

#

You can see from Sinclair uptie

#

That the rules are supposed to be applied universally

#

Which is why Sinclair is so pissed that outsiders to the group doesn’t follow the rules

#

I imagine there still might be a clause saying

#

“Don’t shoot your direct superior you numb nuts, you psycho, you idiot”

keen palm
#

They also didn't AMBUSH Hong Lu

vagrant dove
#

The rules for appropriate social decorum being universal doesn't exclude the thumb having rules for internal affairs

keen palm
#

They politely asked him to leave first

#

then when he didn't they shot him with a gun

cloud wadi
#

No they shot him first

keen palm
#

The person who shot him first did so by mistake then lied about it and thus cut their tongue out

cloud wadi
#

And then tried to play it off as it being a warning shot

keen palm
#

ya

cloud wadi
#

Which is why she got her tongue cut off

keen palm
#

Which was against orders

cloud wadi
#

Because she was in fact trying to kill him

#

And she lied about it

#

By claiming that was a warning shot

keen palm
#

The other Soldatto explicitly says though they had orders to tell Hong Lu to leave

#

and would only resort to violence if he persisted

cloud wadi
#

They had orders to not allow passage. The direct cause for her tongue being cut off was because she lied

#

Not because she shot him

keen palm
#

Yes

#

That's what I said

cloud wadi
#

Oh hmm

keen palm
#

What I'm refuting is that they didn't ambush the party

#

they were supposed to just tell them to fuck off

#

but had orders to kill them if that didn't work

#

Since it was bad decorum to attack someone of Hong Lu's station, but Lei Heng's orders overruled that.

#

It's also the line where we find out the Thumb has powerscaled the LCCB

vagrant dove
#

Thumb Sinclair is an avid powerscaler

stoic fjord
#

fuck I should not have replayed node 9-49

#

I'm actually crying so hard it's embarassing

keen palm
#

Thumb is inherently where you go if you are a powerscaler because powerscaling informs decorum

cloud wadi
#

The fact that the thumb obsessively study every important faction in the city for powerscaling purposes is stupid funny

So that’s how ||the Prescripts are seemingly able to predict the future, apparently. Its vibrations are already present in the
 er, present, and whatever god of the City responsible for Prescripts can pick them out and out them to the loom. Or the beeper, in this case.||

it's poetic language at that point

quaint cliff
#

Would also explain ||how the Prescripts can know about past events that the Index themselves shouldn’t have any knowledge of, as its lingering echoes are also still present.||

#

Though frankly that makes more sense since you can actually dig up past info based on present clues even without Prescripts. The Seven and Dieci associations partly exist for just that in between detective work and Ruins expeditions, not to mention the countless private offices who do the same. The idea that ||the future somehow sends its echoes back to the past is still strange.||

5 without question, although 7 might be fine as long as i don't annoy ryoshu by leaning too far back or smth

Aren't there usually two lines of seats on a plane though?

bronze zephyr
#

Oh ok yeah 5 is even better

stoic fjord
#

Probably just 5 i think

vagrant dove
#

5 is genuinely the best pick then

#

I'm rather clumsy

#

And if I accidentally bump into ricardo

#

He will kill my entire family

#

So

#

So you know

dusty sigil
#

I still believe in 7

bronze zephyr

Middle and thumb are bombs yeah

Eeeeh

That's pretty minor

Likely ONLY a broken arm

#

5 I get to hear Confucius and his student talk or something

dusty sigil
#

You could throw your meal into Lucio and he wouldn’t react

You could kiss Lucio and he wouldn’t react

#

Yeah but uh

You're right in front of valencina

9 is the seat where you're with a Capo, a big brother, a distortion, and the girl who will kill you if the beeper says "bones. 5 minutes"

tired canyon
vagrant dove
#

I think 10 is fine

#

Considering I don't know how my death would benefit the Index in this context

#

But then again the Prescripts work in mysterious ways

tired canyon
#

Having lei Heng sit behind you is

Not fun

But sure

vagrant dove
#

And sora's between me and yan

tired canyon
#

....oh yeah also Ricardo is like

8 foot 400 lbs

He probably takes like 2 sears by himseld

vagrant dove
#

I think the most annoying thing is either Lei Heng like

#

Shoving his legs forward into the chair/smoking

tired canyon
vagrant dove
#

Or distorted yan continually reciting prescripts (ily yan and feel really bad what happens to you but I imagine it would get on my nerves a little)

tired canyon
#

And I like my tongue

vagrant dove
#

The debuff works in my favour this time

#

Also 10 is pretty close to the exit

tired canyon
#

i still believe in the "hey,can you turn on your gloves so i cant hear that nonsense over there" strat

vagrant dove
#

You just have to trust that the Will of The City doesn't want to play a funny prank by telling sora to claim your bones and make a xylophone out of them, or something

tired canyon
#

note:this only works if this is post library roland

#

if its pre libyrary roland he will get suspicious on how the fuck you know about the gloves and likely murderize you for potentially being involved with angelica's death

vagrant dove
#

I think pre library roland is fine as long as you say nothing that uh

#

Would do that yeah

#

Don't mention pianos

#

The issue is you've also got rien there, who has the same issues as sora

#

And that getting up from that seat runs the risk of accidentally setting off one of the nuclear bombs

#

That are the middle and thumb guys

#

Also you're behind matthias so the vibes are rancid

gentle mulch
atomic steeple
wild mango
#

Like 5 is the best option yeah

#

You would come out of that plane ride fucking ENLIGHTENED

#

Assuming 1/6 is the front of the plane, 2 isn’t terrible since we can just yap about gundam, just don’t disagree with them. 8 would be good just don’t lean your seat back, and with 7 they just probably wouldn’t talk

#

ASSUMING nobody is crashing out

The correct answer is this plane is NOT making it

5 is the objective best but 3 or 4 sounds amazing, 10 is a dream, fuck naw I ain’t sitting next to Ricardo (genuinely sorry I just don’t want to anger you on accident)

#

It's funny how at the start the deck was pretty stacked against tremor

#

Sinking can panic enemies multiple times, make them worse at fighting, give them new panics

#

Tremor could only stagger enemies faster, up to how many staggers they have, and do not much outside of that

#

It needed the amplitudes and moratorium to take off

#

And even then some amplitudes dominated others
