[mystic ermine]

I never actually
considered that she might just like be

ah

yeah

whimsy

[neat cedar]

is how it approaches the fact the difference between being told about something

and remembering it

[tiny cave]

I think their emotional state is somewhat anchored by the contract?

[ebon forge]

i also like how it shows why cathy is treated the way she is

[mystic ermine]

True, even while ||actively distorted, the Ticking still brings Heath back||

[neat cedar]

ye a lot of this canto serves a s similar over all role

to the LCE

further clarifying concepts about the world as well as checking in how everyone is doing and reaffirming their resolve or seeing where they still have room to grow

[ebon forge]

also what i like is that the cantos are changing in focus

i feel like what might be happening is closer to something like

[neat cedar]

yeah, they're widening out

[ebon forge]

rather than just resolving someone's issues or giving closure in some way

[neat cedar]

it's no longer just about the sinners

[ebon forge]

they're now more about expressing the traumas and new paths

[mystic ermine]

aw...............

[ebon forge]

so like, Hong Lu had a happy ending, but that's because they've opened him up to face his own problems

[mystic ermine]

[neat cedar]

Seeing like

normal behavior and places

in the ci5y

always feels so weird

wven though it makes sense

[ebon forge]

but for Don, it's just a beginning of another story

[neat cedar]

it can't always be shit

[ebon forge]

and Ryoshu has a bigger goal to learn about

ngl i feel like Heath might never get Cathy back somehow

[mystic ermine]

"Damnit Dante, you're ruining my edginess"

HHEHEHHEE

[ebon forge]

or if he does, he'll be doing so in a different way

[mystic ermine]

HEHEHHEE
aaahhh~
the story is great

[neat cedar]

||I adore that ryoshu is speaking in a way that makrs her acronyms more legible||

||A nice subtle way to show her opening up morr||

||I also like how she has a bit of an odd old sister vibe going on with Kira||

[mystic ermine]

||I can't believe Sinclair's comment actually got through to her in some heartwarming way - you know, about understanding the acronym immidiately?||

[neat cedar]

||Mhmm.||

[mystic ermine]

I AM GOING TO GO BACK IN TIME AND EXPLODE ||CALLISTO||

HAH

[neat cedar]

||YERRP||

I love the limbus translators

||callisto is never andnshould never live down being called robo-unc||

[mystic ermine]

||beginning to wonder if there will ever be repercussions to "ab"using Malkuth as much as Dante seems to do in the Intervallo...||

[worthy haven]

||I wonder if there are even more then 5 ring groups 👀 ||

[ebon forge]

ngl i want kira to call ryoshu cuh

it would be so fucking funny

[neat cedar]

oh speaking of

[mystic ermine]

hm?

[neat cedar]

||The name of the maestro is two middle names if a famous Fauvist painter||

can i say by thebway

the ring's theme

fuckon bops

so hard

[mystic ermine]

I like it a looot

[ebon forge]

"i low[redacted]kenuinely framemogged this artsmaxxing clavic[al/cular] maestro cuh"

• kira to ryoshu

[mystic ermine]

alright we're going some steps too far

...

actually not really?
iounno
the language evolution from now to then in slang must be insane, in all fairness

[ebon forge]

i mean i could to worse

cuz like

[neat cedar]

I love

that kira

keeps dunking on ryoshu's acronyms

[mystic ermine]

...really hope that ||Araya will keep interacting with Ryoshu throughout the story the way she does in the Intervallo, it seems... kind of heartwarming, honestly||

[ebon forge]

kira trolling don be like

larp larp larp sahur jusissmaxxing shakespeargooning six-seven-thousand year uncfiend

god i hate these sentences

[mystic ermine]

Jussis!!

Jusssiiiis!!!

chrm

sorry, I quite liked the April fools event

More.

MORE

NOOO SHOW UUUS

RHAAAA

[hybrid lynx]

do we. do we have anything on v corp?

[mystic ermine]

Nothing but the pin they wear

[hybrid lynx]

i know we have something on s corp, they do agriculture iirc

[mystic ermine]

So perhaps I was wrong on the space folding tech
sounds to me more like they want to ||establish routes through the Backdoor... sounds like a lot of clashing with the Ring along the way.||
...
wait then how the shit does the whole ||portal fuckery|| work?

[neat cedar]

i love how unsurei am on how mich of this is foreshadow

or just worldbuilding

[mystic ermine]

IT IS JUST THE BACKROOMS
HAH
FUCK YEAH

[neat cedar]

yerp

[mystic ermine]

the fact that we can't tell says a lot about the quality of the franchise

that is to say it's high

I like it

[neat cedar]

PJM is incredibly unsubtle with their inspirations

[mystic ermine]

Wait...
is... is this the...
||IS THIS THE FUCKING HAIR SALON??? HEATHCLIF!!! GET YOUR FUCKING COUPONS RHAAAA||

[hybrid lynx]

how long until we ||fight one of those entities?||

[mystic ermine]

YEEEEEEEEES

WITH THIS ||SACRED TICKET, I SUMMON THEE, RICARDO||

I...

never considered thgat ||Kira, Don and Ryoshu would have such common ground to speak on...||
huh

[mystic ermine]

Chrm

Foreshadopwing is a literary device used in media to hint at points coming later in the story

[hybrid lynx]

bashing in your skeleton

[mystic ermine]

haaaaaaaaaaaah
Who said that Lob. Corp was inspired by SCP again?

ourgh my fuck

did ||Matthias butcher the school?||

HOLY SHIT

[hybrid lynx]

CHRISTS

||you know i'm starting to think matthias doesnt get enough hate||

[mystic ermine]

aah...

kind of... beginning to think the same goes for all of them

the more we learn about the ||Nursefathers, the worse it gets||

What's next? ||Valencina did more than just beat the shit out of her?||
||is SA on the table for this? I'm beginning to severly doubt the morals in the City||
||you know what, that comment immidiately triggered a "oh no shit" thought in my head - I wonder if there are taboos on rape? thinking about all the fucked up stuff in the City, it is surprising that we haven't even had a tangential remark to that other than that one worker drone in LoR in the Circus... and even that one was a registered worker getting benefits because they were going along with it rather than being forcefully pulled into it||

heh

She's a gem, can we keep her

we're getting ||Outis foreshadowing? what the fuck?||

[karmic escarp]

||she is next after meursault after all||

[neat cedar]

||Deliberate choice by the team to not go down that route||

||For understandable reasons of it being potentially tasteless at points and also a very easy subject to either be a tad too real and depressing or very easy to get wrong||

[mystic ermine]

hm, true, but I like to think there's an-universe explanation for this
...Meta feels... bland in this situation

and it ||feels right to have that slight shed of hope from the Head that at least that is barred||

[neat cedar]

Up to you but personally, it just being a topic the writers don't want to touchnis fine by me and also about as much thought as i want to out into the topic

the City is already plenty bleak as a setting without having to consider the possibilities of how fucked that anglr can get

[mystic ermine]

||HUH! Rodion saying that's that, this is this (backstreets), Gregor saying he isn't special, Hong Lu saying that he ignored the pains of the world... the more I look through this, the more this... haaaah||

[mystic ermine]

mh, that is ture

true*

[neat cedar]

||The themes do be theming bigly||

||They are all fighting the disease of the mind||

[mystic ermine]

...what is ||the disease of mind?||
greed? complacency? indifference?

I think that it's every... ah
||how do I put this... the Trauma of the Sephirah? perhaps?||

aawwww ||Lucio was that close to genuinely fucken Killing Valencina... and swapping sides, too||

goodness, working ||Valencina like a horse||
...
good

||THAT'S WHY ROLAND WASN'T ALLOWED INTO THE NEST?!||

IT'S HAPPENING AGAIN

oh
OH

HOLY SHIT NEVERMIND

Speechless

Wait, the Rusty Commemaritive Coin is...

aaaaawwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww

"It's alright, Since I can live on"

Oh...
aw...
Right, ||Rien||
still makes me sad

||Sora... ||

HEHEHEHHEHEE

AAAAAAAAAAAAH

[mystic ermine]

Right, almost forgot he had a ||Torture basement, nevermind||

Hm.

[neat cedar]

Yes

[mystic ermine]

Hm.

[neat cedar]

there isn't like a core definition but it's basically why the city hardly ever grows in a positive direction

a general malaise, at least as i understand it

[tiny cave]

I thought it was apathy tbh

[mystic ermine]

...wait, Dante saw ||Araya's Memories? maybe the 13th Sinner mentioned during C.H's entire flaming head sequence before Malkuth is... is her?||

especially since she literally carried the ||chain back to Ryoshu||

[tiny cave]

13th sinner is Yuri trust

[vagrant dove]

I'm gonna have to wait till the weekend to play the intervallo I think

Work and exams

[neat cedar]

that's part of it, but i also think it's an all encompasing metaphor for all of the reasons for whynpeople choose not to maks the world better

it's not so much a single emotion but a general weight that keeps everyone stagnant

[mystic ermine]

wait, whoever talked abotu V Corp

that's the music one

where the Pianist was

next to N Corp

HEY

HEY I KNOW THIS ROOM

WAIT

[neat cedar]

yerp

||The last joke at Rien's expense||

[mystic ermine]

...I never noticed the child's Crib... that makes it...
haaaaah.... aw....

[neat cedar]

yyeeeeeeeeeaaaaah

[mystic ermine]

:(

[neat cedar]

really nails in the despair

[tiny cave]

Rien is such a fraud he has a knocked over bottle of wine instead of an empty beer can

And no PZA

[neat cedar]

||Note this is Rien's old home and(probably) not roland's. Butnthen again maybe it was also rolands||

[mystic ermine]

...hah
waves

[neat cedar]

lonely indeed

Also, side note

[mystic ermine]

...a drawing made by... by... ||the family before the H.O.S||

[neat cedar]

i have to show appreciation to PJM

for making Kira actually a bit.muscular and having abunch of old scars

like, girl has abs

[tiny cave]

“A bit”

Kira is ripped af

[mystic ermine]

...oh

[mystic ermine]

That entire thing made me sad

[mystic ermine]

no more sad you are so right

[neat cedar]

yeeeaah

like after spending so much time playing gacha that refuse tondo that, it's nice to see

[ebon forge]

i like how like

strong people look strong, lots of times

and for every soft girl, there's an equally soft boy lol

[neat cedar]

mhmm

and for every woman who you can think is a dude, there is a dude you think is a woman

Project moon will never stop with the power of androgynous design

tho we hsven't gotten a recent example of that in a while

[mystic ermine]

Hah
sounds like it

aawwww

[tiny cave]

I feel like all the index proxies from ||this intervallo|| are fairly andro?

[mystic ermine]

AAAAAAAAAWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWJKNLMFSDALK,JHDLKJHSDAFDAS

[tiny cave]

Named chars though, yeah

Not sure about ||Benoit but she’s covered head to toe in a fursuit||

Rodion is a docent lol

[neat cedar]

reverse of beat the boss before the nerf

[mystic ermine]

oh fuck off I am just at that point

[mystic ermine]

...wha

[neat cedar]

ye

[mystic ermine]

wh- I- wha-

I swear she

[neat cedar]

Rodion is a docent

[tiny cave]

Yeah, the Ring Fauvist Docent Rodion

[mystic ermine]

I
thought she was the

[neat cedar]

nope

[neat cedar]

the maestro shows up but we don't face them

Docents are still a big deal

equal to capos/Big bros

[mystic ermine]

said that right as Faust did

[neat cedar]

||Remember that one of the pieces was the eye of a second kindred in the fauvist gallery||

||Specifically a gallery that only held pieces by docents and students||

[mystic ermine]

as always with the Ring
On some fucked up level I heavily fuck with what they're saying

[mystic ermine]

yyoouuu make a good point

the only reason why ||Callisto|| didn't tear us to shreds is because he was getting his art appraised

...what was it... -20 offence and defence level and -40% damage?

[tiny cave]

Because we had buffclair lol

[neat cedar]

yeah, ||Callisto the worse dad ||was playing with us

also ||The kira power scaling with thr maestro was crazy||

[mystic ermine]

Sourcematerial titledrooop

[neat cedar]

||She managed while weakened, to block a maestro's attack||

||An attack which turns Don into paste instantly||

[mystic ermine]

THERE'S MORE FACTIONS TO THE RING?!

[neat cedar]

||the blaue-reiters replaced thencorporists||

||Remember, Callisto'a school fell out of fashion, so it makes sense something took it's place||

[mystic ermine]

ah, right

...honestly I fucking love the discussions about the Ring

[neat cedar]

same

the finale convo this intervallo

[mystic ermine]

THEY'RE AURA FARMING

[neat cedar]

is so great

Have fun magic :^)

[tiny cave]

I don’t think the ring has a limited number of schools? But the school needs a maestro and there’s no other Corporist maestros until a docent feels like reviving it

[mystic ermine]

thank you!

[neat cedar]

oh definitely, i more meant as far as like

the big factions

[tiny cave]

Someone is out there stanning Classicalism

[mystic ermine]

||"Well, peopel look much better "abbreviated""||
goodness Ryoshu

GFEAR

...interesting, I want to ||lose the clash...||

[tiny cave]

Ngl I didn’t read what this boss did

Didn’t even slot the right sinners

She’s not very difficult

[mystic ermine]

"Yo."

[neat cedar]

well she now has 6 morr levels to play with

but yeah

it's a fight that feels scary but is fine if you just

pay attention

[mystic ermine]

OH HOT DAMN THE MUSIC KICKED UP

this is cool as fuuuck

[neat cedar]

incredibly so

I hope we get more pointlists so we canndive further into their stuff

[mystic ermine]

Huh, Corporism really is washed

[atomic steeple]

Sinners asking meursault for pointers on funeral

[mystic ermine]

I appreciate the gesture, but

wait

no

beginning to realise all my skills are struggling, too

WAIT NO
RENCLAIR

LOCK DOWN THE CLASH

Very Cinema

[atomic steeple]

[mystic ermine]

OUCH

I need you to fucking kill her.

holy shit he fucking killed her

[atomic steeple]

It's alright, we can try again

[cosmic gorge]

oh no....

[mystic ermine]

Ah.

The second ||War is inbound.||
||lovely||

hehehe

HEHEHEHE
...

this feels cozy

I like that atmosphere

aawww
that means it was a ||precious memory||

oh

nevermind

||Araya did that||

WAIT SHE FORGOT THE ||COOKING?!||
aaawww.... that just hit me....

[atomic steeple]

Hohenheim mentions the method ayin used to get information from binah, ||and that it could have been used on kira||

[mystic ermine]

that did NOT clock with me in the slightest, you are so right

aaaawwwwwwww...

AAAAWWWW

[atomic steeple]

Myo reference!
Lets fucking goooooooooooooooooo!
||Kira: fixers who go out in a blaze of glory aren't actually the strong ones. It's the ones who survive... the ones who live to se another day and keep getting stronger||

[mystic ermine]

...I know I've said it before but
but this Intervallo felt Cozy
nice? comfy? I guess?

I like it

[fickle crown]

Y'know

Looking at the new IDs

Yeah uhhh

I don't see them replacing my bloodfiends anytime soon

[tiny cave]

ring rodion might replace princess but

i dont see ringsault replacing prince

haven't tried em tho

[fickle crown]

I think princess is still useful just off of the mass buffing she can do with her S2 and attack weight on S3 (even if windup is long)

That and much better sustain due to self healing

[tiny cave]

princess atk weight s3 is second only to pregor coin reuse s3 in terms of rarity

[fickle crown]

Ah yea

I will admit I also prefer her for her passive

That bottom part seems a little overlooked at times

[tiny cave]

it's a pretty low amount because of the 10 per skill cap

[fickle crown]

Eh, 10 HP is 10 HP tbh

I do feel kinda tempted to try throwing her into a hybrid bleed/envy team

[stoic fjord]

It kind of reminds me of Ryoshu's pass on lyrics

[stoic fjord]

...huh?

I didn't read for this boss honestly I just followed the prescript and it worked out

[signal kindle]

Need

Grace of god? Riensang reference?

[stoic fjord]

Truthnuke

[stoic fjord]

I kinda wonder how that works mechanically
Especially for a fight against the Index

Like... is Paper Slip Faust getting a prescript that tells her to kill that specific index proselyte?

Why is the will of the city telling its followers to slime each other out

[tiny cave]

hermes and moirai hate each other

prolly

but the city demands violence

whoever wins the sliming is more deservant of the grace of the city or something idk

[stoic fjord]

Isn't Moirai just the Weaver for a loom

[tiny cave]

yeah

[fickle crown]

This is truly the team of all time

I don't have the ring HoS IDs yet

[signal kindle]

Get reading slag (but imagine this was said nicely)

[mystic ermine]

haaaaaaah

[signal kindle]

If you do the reading then you can better appreciate the depths of our directors vision

Did u know if you read all the source books you unlock the special menhara director 14th sinner

Very few know this because only canto 9 players have begun to learn how to read

[atomic steeple]

Is kira the myolga baby?
It all makes sense

[worthy haven]

I do think they are just separate teams tbh

[atomic steeple]

Myolga agenda
Is the reason this heart beats!

[fickle crown]

But yea

This team is kinda dumb NGL but also

It's kinda funny

So I'll definitely try using it anyways

[signal kindle]

What does this even mean 😭

[fickle crown]

I'm sure this will hold up well in modern content

[signal kindle]

???

[fickle crown]

?

[atomic steeple]

Oh, Alan sucks. ||And is probably enhanced with esoteric tech for fighting||

Eight association mention

[fickle crown]

But yea

Anyone mind rating this god awful team

[tiny cave]

0/10 not enough sloshmael

[fickle crown]

Noooo

[atomic steeple]

House tepes, huh

[tiny cave]

how can you truly be the worst bleed team without like

[stoic fjord]

I wish we had seen pilot and saude

[cosmic gorge]

true
but thatd be heavy

i was mostly laughing at ||the distorition breach caused by some new hire||

[stoic fjord]

Also

Distortion breach

Are they keeping Distortions to turn into abnos?

[cosmic gorge]

i presume Limbus has the morality of a Minecraft player with a mob farm

so yes

also idk about you folks but ||Rufo|| mauled me

spent 40 lunashi bc i dont want to do another 10 minutes

[dusty sigil]

Now that I’ve actually slept, good intervallo

Other people said it but it really does feel like the epilogue to canto 9

Wrapping up the thematics of it and showing us more to contextualize the Ryoshu we know

Also ||Araya now being a sheath who’s trying to get her mom to be less cringe is really funny||

[tiny cave]

ryo's angel and devil

araya trying to get her to be less cringe

kira trying to get her to be more cringe

[faint pivot]

I did it

Beat intervallo first try

Kira needs more fucking recognition y'all

If I did the last node with a Burn team I feel like I would've been fine but damn

Minor intervallo spoilers

From a full deployment down to 3 sinners

Thank you Ring Outis for the Magic Bullet but

Thank you hard carry Kira for providing 30 Burn pot and enough Bleed for this to not be a loss

[cosmic gorge]

my youtube algo knows im a hater

[tiny cave]

yeah i can fix movie wuthering heights too

[faint pivot]

Yem.

[signal kindle]

Me when fucking limbus company is a better adaption of the book than Hollywood media

[faint pivot]

Hey not her fault it's the most apt visual indicator

[faint pivot]

In Hollywood's defense tis a pretty high bar

[signal kindle]

Tru…

[cosmic gorge]

i could rant about the incurious privileged rich person vibe of emerald's writing and how shes consistently portrayed the poc and poor as evil upstarts disturbing the peace of the clueless but good rich guys While also continuously ramping up the sex of things in a crass and unaesthetic way
but i would be here for too long

[faint pivot]

TWICE

Madame, whoever gave you those tattoos are really good!

[signal kindle]

Wasn’t raised by a nursefather for nothing eh?

[tiny cave]

tbf isn't the source material also pretty harsh on heathcliff

[faint pivot]

Yes but not in this way

[signal kindle]

While they were never there the apprentices were ultimately training to go 1-1 with Ryōshū in their relative fields

[faint pivot]

The movie reversed the roles between the rich and the poor + poc

And also

[cosmic gorge]

heathcliff was a terrible person in the book but we see how abuse and discrimination turned him into that

and how him and cathy genuinely made each other worse

but also heath's non-whiteness is essential to how he was treated

[faint pivot]

(I'll give the floor to Thyme since he's done this a few times + I've still a B.R. to complete)

[crimson spindle]

he needs to be visibly Different in some way yeah

you could pivot it to another axis, as long as it's visible

[faint pivot]

Were we not keyed into this in canto 3?

[cosmic gorge]

the movie is an exercise of ignoring aaalll of that uncomfy Othering in favor of hollowing out Bronte's book about the cycle of abuse and the destructiveness of love to fill in emerald's shallow shockhorny pseudo-booktok slop that turns heathcliff into some desirable brooding dominant guy whose abuse of isabella is turned into an S&M thing

[faint pivot]

||Another moment||

[cosmic gorge]

like
its the equivalent of writing an original property but burrowing the marketable name of an existing one
thats how it feels somewhat

[uneven canopy]

||https://www.rxddit.com/r/limbuscompany/comments/1sn3bz6/labubu_fucking_hates_little_german_boy_art_by/|| canto 9.5 meme

[tiny cave]

50 shades of wuthering?

[cosmic gorge]

mmhmm

it makes me so mad

leave it to the rich child of gemstone traders to take a book that takes a shot at the immorality of rich people and then
make it a book about spicy immorality between two white leads while also subtextually turning the poc/poor characters into villains again

[faint pivot]

It's like if PMoon announced a Limbus 2 unironically but what you get is IWantLunazy's stuff

...hm

Tis an insult to IWantLunazy

Like I expected Thyme said it best lmao

Retracting what I said, the gulf between the novel & that paper towel tape is enormous

[atomic steeple]

Only got to do the first battle node
Do more of the event later
So Fauvists want the members to pick an animal as their fursona for the rest of their lives
Ryoshu and hohenheim care about kira
Also ryoshu is still a dork
"Sweet! Is my sword possessed by a demon? Nice to meet you, demon!"

[tiny cave]

canto 9 is just adorkable characters

[faint pivot]

||The Beastblade was honestly...rather cruel!||

[atomic steeple]

||Araya|| facepalming

[faint pivot]

I'm a few hours late but poise and sinking

[atomic steeple]

So I have 3 ring units
That should be 5 tableau decrease per turn. 6 turns to activate closing time
When I get meursault, it'll be 6 decrease, thus 5 turns

With rodya and yi sang, 8 decrease per turn.

4 turns

[faint pivot]

Someone earlier said among all the sinners Rodya would be the one to have the seed of light and with the callbacks to LobCorp and Ruina I feel like this is intentional

[mystic ermine]

F15, 60 ADVERSITY ||RIEN|| on the last possible Node

[stoic fjord]

I imagine it would certainly be rare because there's always gonna be someone who wants you fucking dead

[tiny cave]

rien is the easiest tbh

[mystic ermine]

You may say that but that is my nr1 sinner with every tremor, sinking and charge gift on her

[tiny cave]

yeah clashing is gonna suck

but its not mathias instant kill counters x2

or valencina 90 rolling evade

you're generally fine clashing after turn 1 and even with mde buffs cracked furioso doesn't do that much
plus he targets all the same sinner so you can just let unhatched embers/t corp badge/etc. revive that sinner for t1

[faint pivot]

Those were proselytes, their passive even references the lockblades proxies get

[faint pivot]

Bookmark befre I sleep @faint pivot

[cloud wadi]

She’s actually legit disappointed upon discovering that her sword isn’t possessed by a devil

No Rodion is also the Docent

really just hoping for more charge support stuff

more reasons to build a charge team and not just charge units + envy res

[dusty sigil]

Also man, with the intervallo clarifying the timeline…

What did Valencina do to fall so hard from the thumb?

Since apparently it wasn’t her performance in the smoke war

[uneven canopy]

don't really know for sure

[keen palm]

Talked shit, far as we know

[uneven canopy]

i think there's been a theory that she fucked up etiquette procedure Bad in front of a higher-up

[dusty sigil]

I mean it’s the thumb so that’s

Very possible

I’m just wondering how bad it must’ve been that she didn’t just lose her tongue but get exiled from her Familia

Since losing your tongue doesn’t go away for high ranking thumb members

[uneven canopy]

bad enough to lose a Relic and fancy sword on her

[gentle mulch]

there's a theory I follow that says that the fuckup wasn't with a higher up

[stoic fjord]

Oh?

[gentle mulch]

yeah

opposite direction

[stoic fjord]

Elaborate

[uneven canopy]

she extended lienience to a lower rank?

[stoic fjord]

That would explain her obsession with hierarchy over actual decorum that we see in the beginning of the canto, like, correcting herself and her past mistakes

[gentle mulch]

the tldr is that if you break hierarchy upwards you lose a lot of shit and get your associates potentially killed too

but imagine you have a new boss in this environment and she's constantly acting outside of the hierarchy @ her subordinates in a sorta awkward way in front of other families in the Thumb. It's not wrong but it's embarrassing to the top of the top

[stoic fjord]

Ohhhh yeah I get what you mean

[dusty sigil]

Hmmm

That is interesting

[stoic fjord]

I think it makes sense with this as I said

[dusty sigil]

God

I need Valencina Rodion already

I gotta know what the fuck she did

We got a lot of insight of Callisto’s backstory via his ID

I hope the other nursefathers are similar

Also man, with the talks about how all power comes at some kind of cost and Dante repeatedly spamming Malkuth

There’s gonna be some consequences next canto I bet

[stoic fjord]

On a scale of "Ryoshu is weird about W and T Corp" to "Don't grieve everything at once.", this foreshadowing is on the end of "Don't grieve everything at once."

[dusty sigil]

Yah

Rodya’s cake was already ruined

What’s next?

[stoic fjord]

No Rodigor this intervallo is killing me

[keen palm]

Okay I am finished

good Intervallo

[cosmic gorge]

The ||Random Korean Office Building|| was really jarring

[dusty sigil]

KJH blue balled us so hard with the biggest Rodigor moment of the entire game so far only for them to not interact this intervallo

[cosmic gorge]

Also ||i want us to fight some backrooms entities||

[stoic fjord]

We must trust El Director's vision

[uneven canopy]

||gregor and ted office yaoi||

[dusty sigil]

I still do, there’s still to much connecting them, but still it’s fucked up

[cosmic gorge]

The ||Fauvist guys just popping out like random encounters is kinda funny to me||

Btw people with ring rodya, whats her uptie story say

[dusty sigil]

I haven’t read it yet

[stoic fjord]

Dante just going "KILL THEM ALL" was really funny to me

[cosmic gorge]

Our shuckaroonies manager knows not to hesitate to make a kill order

[stoic fjord]

Dante is learning from Vergilus to throw hands on sight with the ring

This is the second riensang/callilu ship post ive seen

Valencina makes me hate her and cry for her and wish everything was different and-

[keen palm]

Also interesting tidbit

||Kira responds directly to Dante on multiple occassions, answering specific questions||

[tired canyon]

...wait gregor said that he tried to cut off his arm a lot but it always grows back

what if he ||got ryoshu to use arayashiki on it||

[stoic fjord]

Yo who the fuck said the Docent wouldn't be as tough as Ricky or the Big Heng

This shit has been beating my ass for the past hour

I can't farm the currency this boss genuinely farms me

[keen palm]

I did it first try idk

[stoic fjord]

Oh I did too

I'm just trying to farm it now

And miserably failing

[eternal berry]

Not the first time this has come up in this channel lol
It’d probably work in the strictest sense but I doubt Greg would ultimately be happy with the results, if you’d permit me to speculate

[atomic steeple]

Yuri Prescripts

[karmic escarp]

huh you saying that made me think
||what if gregor is 'the dream' of the ungziefer kaiser. as in, a personality created to be interactable with as opposed to something which exists only to propagate and devour. why that would be the case, idk, but it was a flash thought anyway||

[mystic ermine]

I felt like it, so I solod the ||Docent||
...
okay fine ||Kira|| did a lot of heavy lifting (being a punchin bag) but heyx

[split beacon]

hmm

that intervallo was very, VERY much not about introducing new characters so much as processing what we already went through huh

good stuff though.

[stoic fjord]

I feel like we always get Corp characters as fodder who die to the scary Finger

I feel like once we get to N Corp we are going to experience "oh god oh fuck it's the corp employees I'm so boned"

[uneven canopy]

time to be in N Corp for another year

[gentle mulch]

which like I'm really happy about since yk. the usual formula is Introduce New Rollable Character and Never Process things and now it's like

just release an ID and process stuff

[split beacon]

the antagonists were a little thin but the story was rock solid

[gentle mulch]

oh yeah i forgot

i haven't finished the Canto but so far it's been like Wow Really Good Character Moments

the aura

[split beacon]

Knowing Meursault, Maestro Hong Lu finds it aesthetically pleasing and Caposault has been hanging around at the House of Spiders too often and just letting the Maestro ramble at him and try to indoctrinate him into the same art sensibilities

[keen palm]

Also I read a thing that says that its implied Callisto was the one who killed Rien's family?

[gentle mulch]

ut3 fauvisault

https://tenor.com/view/clone-high-gandhi-say-what-what-huh-gif-5429941

parallels

[split beacon]

I think that this theory turned out to be wrong with the whole "are you here to disobey the Prescript" thing in Rien's passives

oh also I wasn't here last night when people were playing the Intervallo and reacting but uh

||Gods, huh? Outis?||

||Looks like the Index connection to Outis is real after all||

[ebon forge]

I have some really particular things I could say

[dusty sigil]

Noticing how all but 1 of Gregor’s PTSD flashbacks is related to a woman

This is because Gregor is scared of women

[dusty sigil]

I can’t see that tbh

Callisto is a super murderer artist but I feel like he would be be as like, angry with Rien if he did kill his family?

I don’t think he’d be guilty persay but more like

He wouldn’t be going on about Rien not knowing right or wrong

[keen palm]

Theres a line about how Callisto brutally murdered someone and is talking to someone who is there to defy the prescript

[split beacon]

where from

[keen palm]

Callisto's passive

Wait no, Rien

Woops

[dusty sigil]

"You're not supposed to be here right now." 
"My work is still much underway, and I'd like to carve them up in peace so they can attain the most exquisite beauty I can sculpt." 
"... Don't tell me, are you here to defy the Prescript?"```

Oh huh

Maybe then

[split beacon]

oh wait

yeah

I forgot about that detail

[dusty sigil]

Though I guess it could be any ring member, they do all love doing that

[atomic steeple]

Charon: Charon, Super Sulky Mode engaged. Not talking for half a day.
Verg: Deploying Super Pass Bitter Candy

Charon: ... Beep, beep. Mode disabled

Rodion: That's that, and this is this

[gentle mulch]

ryoshu

my favorite ragebaiter

[keen palm]

I also think its noticeable that Rien did actually almost or did defy the prescripts

[atomic steeple]

Ah, moses taught shin to vespa

Hm, augmentations have upkeep costs
Verg going to a car mechanic to do maintenance on his legs

[dusty sigil]

His last action before he died was deciding not to read the poem of loving sorrow

Citing how tired he was

[atomic steeple]

Oh, so the sinner contract ||makes using shin harder||

[gentle mulch]

https://tenor.com/view/family-guy-peter-griffin-itinsistsuponitself-gif-26249772

[split beacon]

I'm gonna be honest

Ryoshu's critique here is pure hackery

[gentle mulch]

https://tenor.com/view/rayleigh-crying-meme-rayleigh-one-piece-meme-cooked-gif-16173693393017584866

[dusty sigil]

Idk, I think I get it

It’s a lot of symbolism and metaphor that’s not actually saying anything

[split beacon]

busting out ye olde "your art is overcomplicated and your critical language is too referential to itself and other critiques" is kind of, you know

complaining that ink has been spilt before you got there

"not saying anything" is an empty critique if you don't actually put in the effort to grasp what the symbols are supposed to mean

very un-Suprematist of me but structuralism has merits

[gentle mulch]

kira: idk its just goreslop

[atomic steeple]

Dang, randomly entering a portal to n corp must be dangerous, considering all their taboos you could break, like recording

[dusty sigil]

Idk I feel like with the way fauvists have been characterized so far they’re very much, focused on their art posing questions but nothing more

They’re about exploring the differences, or lack there of, of man and animal

But without actually coming to a conclusion of their artwork

Making it feel half baked at best

[gentle mulch]

it was my impression that ryoshu did have the experience to familiarize herself with the rings' movements and supposed deeper meanings, and just went "idc lol"

[dusty sigil]

And honestly, quite trite

[gentle mulch]

callisto's work iirc was also about defining things like where the corpus is after shuffling it a bunch

[dusty sigil]

Fauvism is the artistic equivalent to ripping a bong hit and going “woah… aren’t humans the real animals?”

[atomic steeple]

Poor saru

[keen palm]

To me Ryoshu's critiques ring true for the Ring as they are people beholden to deritive rote rather than actual true self expression

[dusty sigil]

Yah

[keen palm]

The only people who thrive in the Ring are people who can correctly interpret art in the "right way" rather than in any meaningfully unique individual way

[gentle mulch]

i think pointilism could actually achieve something if they worked on abnos

[dusty sigil]

What’s pointillism again?

[keen palm]

Dots

That make up a larger whole

[dusty sigil]

Ohh

[atomic steeple]

For a moment thought the Malkuth status was two twisted nails

[keen palm]

Which makes sense to me that theyd be interested in mirror worlds

Because when theres infinite yous, what does you even mean?

[split beacon]

It's interesting that Fauvism got brought up without pointing out that Fauvism is a school of painting that expands on the Impressionist notion of treating paint as pure light that combines into colors and images piece by piece

well

we do get a little bit of that with the Mauled Colors and Palette Vibrante mechanics

kind of mechanically representing the idea of treating paint and painting as something that's assembled by the viewer's eye

[dusty sigil]

Was fauvism irl focused on animals?

[split beacon]

no, that symbol is taken from the meaning of the word

[dusty sigil]

Oh okay

[stoic fjord]

holy shit Rufo is actually genuinely harder than any other boss in the game for me

[split beacon]

"les fauves", the wild beasts

Fauvism was focused on painterly qualities and bold color rather than trying to create lifelike images

wild brushwork, strong colors, and expanding on the Impressionist depiction of light

[keen palm]

Which does seem to be the vibe still but just with flesh

Cuz Ring

[atomic steeple]

Oh the tableau status is 21, not 30. Silly me.
So I have 5 loss per turn currently on my team. 5 turns to use closing time
With meursault, 6 loss. 4 turns

[atomic steeple]

It conveyed strong emotion

Oh
The backrooms have monsters. Of course

Did matthias obliterate a classroom of kids? Bruh

[stoic fjord]

||no he obliterated their teacher in front of them and also I think a few kids||

[ebon forge]

matthias is a petty idiot who cant respect people, yes

[dusty sigil]

||nah he only ripped the one kids arm off||

||he did merk the teacher though yah||

[dusty sigil]

Oh right yah

mm

monostatus for MDIE

i may be making a mistake

[faint pivot]

The sinners, lmao

[faint pivot]

Sinner 13 perhaps?

[stoic fjord]

yeah that's what I mean

I'm saying holy fuck she's actually more difficult than either of those fights for me

[faint pivot]

Granted, this isn't the first time someone's done that

[stoic fjord]

idk why but I just fucking can't

[keen palm]

What team you using?

[faint pivot]

The Sinking is incredibly rough, yeah

And the Bleed is really hard to shake off harmlessly

[keen palm]

They do sinking?

[faint pivot]

A shame we can't Ideality sinner announcers during Walp

[gentle mulch]

o yea i wonder what the next walp set is like

[stoic fjord]

I tried burn, I tried sinking, I tried ring + bloodfiend combo bleed

[keen palm]

The latter let me winrate

[main scaffold]

Honestly yeah

Voy the Nelson Boy ↩️

[(click to see attachment)](#1208554035326484531 message)

like I've gone through all my core teams except for Heishou

[gentle mulch]

do you have sp healing

base faust ego is pretty much a must-have

[stoic fjord]

on burn, yes, on sinking, yes, on ring/bloodfiend, yes due to Rep. Emitter

or-

wait no sinking I don't

[main scaffold]

Oh damn, guess we weren't the only ones to have trouble with her
We thought it was because we were using a tremor team against a boss that seemed to hard counter them

Madam Poggers (or Juniper) ↩️

[Reply to:](#1208554035326484531 message) I tried burn, I tried sinking, I tried ring + bloodfiend combo bleed

[karmic escarp]

yeah something like that
and also ||and inversion of sorts of the opening line to the metamorphosis||

[faint pivot]

Ma'am Docent gestures to this notion in her pitch to Ryo

[faint pivot]

I recommend ring/fiend and having Meursault and Ring Faust tank

Slot an Outis with MB the EGO in the back

And keep Rodion alive for as long as possible for the sake of Sanguine Desire

[stoic fjord]

lowk I might just suck at bleed teams because I never got enough potency to benefit from Sanguine Desire anyways lol

[faint pivot]

Not just to build a stack, but to cling to it when ma'am inevitably staggers and/or renders your sinners clashless

[faint pivot]

It's fine she has WAY too many coins

Your goal is to simply get to her mask phase, then race her to death

[stoic fjord]

I can't DPS race her she takes zero damage whatsoever

[faint pivot]

Oh you gotta kill her students, she gains 2 fragile and drops to 0 sp if you do

She has a skill that refills the 4 slots however they're debuffed for every student you've killed so far

[stoic fjord]

I know!!! but I can't because if I clash everything only one skills to to each

[stoic fjord]

I know, it's just like... actually killing the students is the hard part

[faint pivot]

Kira isn't helping?

[keen palm]

AoE helps a lot

[faint pivot]

Also this scenario would be a good time to corrode into Contempt Awe

[stoic fjord]

she mainly targets the Docent to do maybe 40 damage with an S3

[keen palm]

I just killed half of em with Myrcella

[faint pivot]

Madam doesn't have that

[keen palm]

She clashes to win not deal damage

Like shes just a tank

[stoic fjord]

she doesn't do much of that either

[faint pivot]

I mean

[keen palm]

She was kicking a ton of ass in my fight

[faint pivot]

Kira is ultimately for the final stretch if anything

Hmmm

Lmao

The classic

Superbia a Fluid Sac for an early advantage

[keen palm]

If you got Ring Lu just let him deal with tanking Rufo and focus students down

Since he has assist defense

[stoic fjord]

...he... he dies if I do that

he's blunt fatal

[faint pivot]

Lmao

Is Ring Fau blunt fatal?

[stoic fjord]

he genuinely gets his shit kicked in if I let that happen

[stoic fjord]

yes

[faint pivot]

Well she has protection at least

The tanks I used for that fight were CAR, Cassault, and Ring Fau

[stoic fjord]

already did that today to get through my first fight

[faint pivot]

Then I brought Fell Sang for the AoE

[stoic fjord]

KIRA STOP USING COUNTERS PLEASEEEE

[faint pivot]

It's so damn cruel btw that Rufo only looses 2 SP per clash lost

[stoic fjord]

it's why I tried sinking

it works, but like

sort of

maybe I should try uhhh

classic sinking

[faint pivot]

The affinities map but also not really

[faint pivot]

Butterfly?

Or classic classic

[stoic fjord]

butterfly

for more consistent damage

also like

[main scaffold]

Oh so that's why Callisto's art became mediocre

[stoic fjord]

butler and molar

for better sinking application

and evades

[faint pivot]

Yem

[main scaffold]

Which phase of the fight are you struggling with?

[stoic fjord]

all of it tbh

[faint pivot]

Callisto kept trying to meld people's techniques together

[main scaffold]

Ah

[stoic fjord]

I just struggle until everyone dies or I barely win

[faint pivot]

Ngl

I feel like that's how you do it lmao

[main scaffold]

I think poise and charge would be better in this fight than the other statuses, it's hard to stack anything onto the boss when most of your attacks are just gonna hit the ads

[stoic fjord]

poise has the most blunt weak IDs for me out of any status

Charge I do not really have the ideal team for

[faint pivot]

I mean

You don't need to stick to a status

[main scaffold]

oh yeah she does blunt

[faint pivot]

Everyone does lmao

[keen palm]

Callisto ultimately just wanted human connection through art

[stoic fjord]

I will

because I like to

and team cohesion seems like it'll still help

watching Tibia Melodica do 82 damage feels like getting shot in the nuts

[cloud wadi]

Yea she has information about the index that only few people can have

Either she has had run ins with the index to such a degree she knows gods are behind them or she has had run ins with the gods to such a degree she knows they are behind the index

[keen palm]

Which because shes Odysseus we know its gotta be the latter

[faint pivot]

Clashing EGOs helped me the most tbh

[wild mango]

i need the fauvist theme

[faint pivot]

Like this sounds rich coming from someone who brought the N Duo and Ring Fau

But hear me out: her wild phase absolutely tears you apart if you don't win those gloom clashes

Or Evade

[faint pivot]

It's really cool yeah

[fickle crown]

Oh that guy is just dead

[faint pivot]

Kira is a massive help here, yeah

[fickle crown]

That's

That's Ishmael

[gentle mulch]

CAUGHT

[fickle crown]

This isn't even a cohesive team lmao

[atomic steeple]

Back to limbus
||Of course matthias used his precious sword. Can't waste a chance to play with his toy||

[mystic ermine]

Huh, looking at a certain ||sinclair||...
||101 doors? Dimensional smth smth?||
Screams like ||Wayfarer Corp||

[fickle crown]

Little bit of this little bit of that ass collection of IDs

[faint pivot]

Oh mb LMAO

[stoic fjord]

"bleed" team

[fickle crown]

On the plus side I'm actually quite topped off on healing

[atomic steeple]

||He ripped off kids arms, jesus||

[fickle crown]

Rodion actually compliments this team pretty well

[faint pivot]

It was one but still

[stoic fjord]

okay this fight is

[fickle crown]

And also makes her and Meursault's clash values respectable off her S2

[stoic fjord]

actually

really good for the fiends

[faint pivot]

Matthias deserved his fate

Yep

[stoic fjord]

I have 999 bloodfeast rn

[faint pivot]

Manadon's counter saved me a lot of hurt

And ofc yea

[stoic fjord]

infinite bleed

[stoic fjord]

it's been doing nothing but losing for me lmao

[fickle crown]

Also not sure but uhhh

If this is the boss fight idk if I should be hearing this

[faint pivot]

I clash the mooks with it, see

[stoic fjord]

oop

[faint pivot]

It is, we'll quarantine better

[fickle crown]

Ah well

Maybe the "bleed" team will work here then

[stoic fjord]

I won!!! woohoo!

[fickle crown]

I say that in massive quotation makes but tbf uhm

Well

Only Meursault and Rodion really need the bloodfeast

[stoic fjord]

I take back everything I said about Fluid Sac being overrated

[faint pivot]

Your survivability will get you far

[stoic fjord]

it is actually just busted

[atomic steeple]

Callisto made a snowman of heads
Of course

[wild mango]

||the end boss is pretty cool, way easier than wei though holy shit||

||wei was a huge difficulty spike||

[fickle crown]

Tbh those two are like... Integral to keeping the rest of this horrendous team alive

Since Rodion just heals off any damage I take spamming counters

And Meursault is Meursault

And can prevent a stagger

[stoic fjord]

maybe allegory will work better than pregor

[wild mango]

||wojak pointing||

[atomic steeple]

Also bro, these Fauvists ||are popping up everywhere||

[fickle crown]

Peggor

Actually I realized Hardblood Armor is also keeping this team chugging along too

This is

Weirdly working

[atomic steeple]

We'll end up fighting a deluge of them, like Sweepers

[keen palm]

I wouldnt even be in this channel until you've beaten the intervallo tbh

[fickle crown]

Yea fair

[wild mango]

||it was cool fighting regular ring enemies though||

[dusty sigil]

Unrelated but I hope Outis’s canto gives us more old G Corp IDs

[fickle crown]

I'll hop and finish the rest

[dusty sigil]

Or in general smoke war era IDs

[atomic steeple]

Honestly, wanted to post my comments as I go along while staying way up there, but discord dragged me down here

[keen palm]

I also dont think you shoukd be live posting without spoilers Pandora

[atomic steeple]

Ah true, sometimes I forget

[stoic fjord]

I'd like to thank Allegory for being a fucking GOAT and cleaning up all the low health enemies that my other IDs leave on 20 HP

he's doing a great service to us all

[wild mango]

allegory?

[stoic fjord]

allen gregor

[wild mango]

AH

awls gregor

btw

having 5 ring ids makes callisto lu pop off really hard

bloodfiends found dead in an alleyway

(corporist duo, fauvist duo, ringsang, nshu, awls gregor)

[keen palm]

I think Bloodfiends still have their niche tbh

In that they are ABSURDLY tankier

[wild mango]

fair

but for general use

i dont think running only 2 bloodfiends is worth (i could be wrong)

also the extra status effects that nshu and awls gregor to help fuel the ring units

[keen palm]

My team was Ringdya, Ringlu, Faustina, KK Ish and Heath, and BF Don and Meur

[atomic steeple]

||I like hong lu's speech to gregor
Also, so it's specifically I and K corps that forbid smoke war veterans?||

[keen palm]

And I just kinda walked the boss

[atomic steeple]

Ugh, avoiding reading is hard
I'll just try to remember all the important bits when I'm done and come back here

[wild mango]

also like. if youre doing 5 ring units (ring outis doesnt count lmao) if you still wanna do bloodfiends your options are manager don (ovbiously) and then for the seventh slot priest gregor or barber outis

now if we somehow get another bloodfiend that isnt hong lu, faust or yi sang then MAYBE

but it would really have to work well with manager don

then MAYBE i see a hybrid team working the best

[dusty sigil]

Chat, is gluttony the worst overall sin?

It feels like outside of rupture specifically

No team gives a shit about it

[keen palm]

Heishou

[dusty sigil]

Well yah that’s the rupture team I was talking about

[keen palm]

Well yeah

But like

[dusty sigil]

I know it’s less rupture and more beat you to death

But still

[keen palm]

That makes it one of the best

Because Heishou

[dusty sigil]

I guess that’s fair

[keen palm]

Show me the gloom team lmao

[stoic fjord]

there are also res benefits from gluttony in Heishou

[dusty sigil]

I guess my real question is like, is gluttony the least versatile sin?

[keen palm]

Non

[dusty sigil]

As in the least teams care about it

[stoic fjord]

so there's like, Lust Res, Glut Res, Pride Res, Envy Res

[keen palm]

Sloth and Gloom do not have teams built around them

[dusty sigil]

Well gloom fuels a lot of good EGOs for various teams

[stoic fjord]

fluid sac fluid sac fluid sac fluid sac-

[keen palm]

Yeah but thats not a team comp

Its so rare to give a shit about gloom they need an early MD item that just gives you gloom resources

[dusty sigil]

Outside of sinking, cavernous wailing Hong Lu needs gloom, great trichilicosm Yi Sang needs it, everlasting needs it

Blind obsession and binds too

[keen palm]

Yes but that isnt what you were asking

Every sin fuels multiple game changing egos but thats not a team comp

Thats a single id

Meanwhile, envy res

Pride res

[dusty sigil]

That’s fair yah

[stoic fjord]

MatthiOutis and Ricardocliff this season... trust...

it'll have been an Envy Res season all along

[cosmic gorge]

Was there any intravello reruns this season

Will yhere be*

[faint pivot]

Sloth has Tremor and Gloom has Sinking

[wild mango]

Also ||I still cannot get over Kira calling Callisto robo unc||

[faint pivot]

Oh the topic was res

[faint pivot]

N.S.

[wild mango]

||all of Kira’s dialogue in this intervallo is great||

[keen palm]

I actually wonder if I will end up running a Middle/Ring team

[unique bane]

i think that's been toned down in limbus in general
which kinda sucks
but i could see people getting mad about it so maybe it's for the best

[cosmic gorge]

The curse of going from indie to semi mainstream

[fickle crown]

||Prescript: attack the [not] middle member with an obviously slotted counter||

[faint pivot]

I'm about to have a lot of fun this fight

Wait they're pride resist, fuck

Y'know what?

Firing anyway.

[keen palm]

Also while we are on the topic

Please say I am not the only person to notice that Rufos chest is astronomically big

[cosmic gorge]

||big baddie wolf boss|| was on 200 or so hp when i lost with my aoe bleed team
Ill try again later

Yes

Shes

Shes got some noticeable fauvs

[faint pivot]

What exactly are we showing, Rufo? (intervallo boss)

[dusty sigil]

It is yah

[cosmic gorge]

I dare say the biggest weve seen so far, after some thinking

[gentle mulch]

lmao

[faint pivot]

Holy shit

||Kira almost died on me||

Thank you Ringtis

That count came in clutch

Perhaps I could've sent in some people to die rather than have everyone in the front but this was my team

[cosmic gorge]

As part of my hypothesis of gacha banners having characters designed to make the fights they show up in easier

I think the fauvist duo with its sinking and bleed and lust skills can help you defeat the big baddie wolf

[faint pivot]

Hypothesis? Isn't this explicit with the B.E.I.D.?

[keen palm]

Big Elephant is Dead...

[gentle mulch]

i wanna see more kim

WHERE IS KIM

WHERE IS KIM

WHERE IS KIM

[neat cedar]

and the answer to this would be ||4yoshu's specific form.of art, which seems to be focused on the utilizationnof absence and negative space.||

[cosmic gorge]

This sounds familiar

[stoic fjord]

intervallo 2

[neat cedar]

||it can prob be used to describe a few artistic movements||

[gentle mulch]

it needs to be NOW

intervallo spoilers

[faint pivot]

Lmao yeah

Noticed that yesterday

[atomic steeple]

This boss is manageable but ||seeing her constantly launch big moves that eat a chunk of health is annoying||

I'll just Continue to finish the intervallo fast then do the boss properly later

[cosmic gorge]

Same
Thats what i did

[faint pivot]

It reminds me of the E.Q.A. rematch

Which, as much as my jaw dropped when a good chunk of my initial deployment was wiped

[unique bane]

||i think they just left out the sinners translating for them||

[faint pivot]

...wait was that E.Q.A. or A.B.M.

Anyway I like that we're being made to dig into our backups more

[faint pivot]

Kira cuts off Faust's reply at one point

Here

Although

She could just be quick on the uptake

The context for that was the whale sculptures

[keen palm]

It feels weird to have that as an oversight though

[faint pivot]

...I have to wonder

If the ||Arayashiki essentially phases things into a different realm||

One where even memory fails to take hold

Is ||Sora and Ren with Araya||?

[faint pivot]

I get that her hoodie is essentially an armored helmet but I wish she didn't have to put it back on every fight

[faint pivot]

A more concerning question: ||does the beeper reach||?

Considering we just ||fought against the will of the prescript|| I have a feeling that we'll be ||regretting any sort of reunion we get in the future||

This maps awfully well in answering ||what the Index would gain by sending a powerful, loyal operative to what was seemingly her death||

[unique bane]

that and he did cut out part of his brain
we don't know what part but it must have affected him somehow

[faint pivot]

It stands to reason that if one can ||communicate to realspace from the outside (Araya's EGO hitting & leaving a mark on Sinclair) that the opposite can also happen, but I really really hope, if they're even there together, that Araya and Ren can set Sora straight||

||Playing JnJ with sora, ren, mayors and cathy||

https://old.reddit.com/r/limbuscompany/comments/1sn0i2q/callisto_a_good_father_generational_psychopaths/

neat callisto analysis

basically saying that he doesn't do anything wrong as a parent in that he's not abusive or performative
he does care, but the lessons he teaches are wrong

[stoic fjord]

was scared to play heishou against intervallo boss because blunt fatal

but like

damn these mfs work at it good

[stoic fjord]

WAIT YEAH IF ||ARAYA|| IS STILL THERE THEN

OH MY GOD

[faint pivot]

I hope one of them have their swords still!

Cause ||Sora|| doesn't need one!

[cosmic gorge]

She is the sword

As in
A tool used to kill people

[faint pivot]

Am woefully aware!

[uneven canopy]

i think ren's sword got slashed up as well

[faint pivot]

...do they need to eat there?

[cosmic gorge]

Im now reminded
That the intravello revealed that albina harvests organs and gets canned experiences in ncorp

Prosthetics daughter goes on regular trips to cyberableist state

[worthy haven]

this might be my favourite intervallo meme

[faint pivot]

I know it was just a name but damn ROFLMAO

[cloud wadi]

I like how Rien telling callisto that this is a bad idea is like

Basically one of two times he shows personal initiative

[keen palm]

He actually shows a ton

[keen palm]

I've been thinking about the Nursefathers all dang day

[faint pivot]

First was almost intercepting his family's offing, then this, then his refusal to larp Roland as his last words makes 3

[keen palm]

The entire boss fight against him is him showing initative

[cloud wadi]

Yeah

[faint pivot]

Ah?

[cloud wadi]

And also him telling ren “hey, the prescripts don’t demand this, you don’t have to do it.”

[keen palm]

Also giving the code for Alyssa

Also him sending Sora to die
