Some of Clavis Lelouch’s best quotes + Cyran’s bonus quotes

“Tell me, Emma, what do you think is the best way to wake someone who’s really bad at waking up? (…) That’s right, you stab them.” (—Clavis talking about Chevalier to Emma)

“Finding such a handsome man in your room is enough to leave anyone breathless. Take your time. I know I’m easy on the eyes. (…) Oh, nice reaction! There’s nothing like a good AHHHHH to get me in the mood.”

“I didn’t do anything. But next time, don’t be intimidated by these status-crazed nobles. You don’t owe them anything—not even a smile. If someone looks down on you, look down on them in return. Otherwise, your self-worth will start to plummet. Never abandon your self-respect just to calm the situation. I know you’re a wonderful person—I wouldn’t have chosen you as my wife if not.”

“You succumbed to delusion.”

“You weren’t paying any attention to me at all. I got so lonely, I almost died!”

“…I want to make love to you.”

“I’ll tell you a secret about Chevalier. You want to know right? I bet you do. (…) He likes romance novels, but the reason for that is… Me. (…) One day, I secretly added to his pile of books… I put a book that boasted its dewy, spicy romance in the pile.”

“Haha! When you’re as handsome as I am, you look good no matter what state you’re in. You just need better understanding of aesthetics.” (—Clavis to the “Obsidianite soldier”)

“Haha! You don’t need to apologize. Who says only kids are allowed to be bouncy? What’s wrong with adults being genuine about loving the things they love?”

“Oh, the things you say! Don’t you realize you threaten to unleash the beast that hides behind this gentleman’s visage?” (—Clavis’ thoughts about Emma)

“What a fool I was to think I was done falling in love with you. The depths I could fall for you seem endless.”

“We can do it on the table, or by the windowsill again, if you like. Ah, but I don’t recommend the floor—not unless you’re into that.”

“Wait, wait, wait! (…) Chevalier, you cannot possibly be trying to replace the words ‘I love you’ with that one kiss. (…) Why else would Emma have dressed up so beautifully? It’s all so she can hear you say those three words! (…) Yes, not all things need to be said, but there is a purpose in giving words to feelings. That’s how you can bring them into the real world. Chev, you can’t let Emma guess how you truly feel forever. Just tell her. (…) The average person can’t read minds like you do. Don’t assume that Emma knows everything just because you do.” (—Clavis to Chevalier, in Chevalier’s route)

“I would never allow my lovely fiancee to live a life of fear. And so I must take it upon myself to indulge her in a life of joy.” (—Clavis’ thoughts about Emma)

“I’m charming, aren’t I?”

“Here you are, alone in a secret room with a handsome prince. Why are you only interested in those lifeless husks? (…) That’s a little offensive, you know.”

“Haha! Go to hell.” (—Clavis to Chevalier)

“Goodness, I’ve never visited that bookstore, and to think it was hiding a gem all this time…” (—Clavis’ thoughts about Emma)

“Dear me, it looks like they started running the second they spotted me. Haha! That’s optimistic of them. ” (—Clavis talking about Yves and Licht to Emma)

“You could at least call it artistic. My handwriting conceals talent that would surpass that of a genius artist. (…) It’s readable. So long as you take the time to decode it! Haha!” (—Clavis to Jin)

“Ah… Hahaha! I can’t believe you headbutted me! You should’ve slapped me, at least.”

“There’s no rule that says you have to drink alcohol once you come of age. That said, it might be more romantic to let you get drunk and then take care of you until you sober up. Wait here, I’ll just get some—”

“Of course, I’m not trying to criticize your own personal standards for good and evil. But throughout our lives, we’re constantly being confronted by our perceptions of good and evil. And there are times when we might regret it later, if we decide to be critical of something simply because 'it’s evil’. Our own individual standards for good and evil may not always be aligned with the kingdom’s standards for good and evil. And if that happens, wouldn’t you want to remain true to your own standards? To what you believe is good and right?”

“So you’re comfortable drinking. I’ll keep that in mind.” (—Clavis’ thoughts about Emma)

“(…) I’m well aware that of all the princes, I was the one most loved by his mother. Although I suppose it’s not really a surprise, given how adorable and cute I was. (…) Haha! Why are apologizing? There’s no rule that says we can’t talk about the deceased. And there’s no need to feel guilty, either. I’m not some silly child who gets all worked up just from thinking about her.” (—Clavis talking about his mother to Emma)

“I love drawing attention to myself, you know that. I wanted everyone in the palace talking about me, so I made it seem as if I’d gone missing.” (—Clavis to Sariel)

“…You’re surprisingly sweet on Emma, aren’t you?” (—Clavis to Chevalier)

“Well obviously, because I like rabbits. And from what I know of rabbits… They may seem aloof, but they’re actually very sweet and loving, and if you’re lucky, they’ll even let you see that side of them. I think they’re adorable. And despite being delicate and easily frightened, they won’t run from anything—they’ll stand their ground and put on a brave face. I can’t think of any other creature that instills in me such an urge to protect them. You see? Everything about them is lovable.” (—Clavis talking about Emma secretly)

“But that’s why Rhodolite is so well-balanced. If we all agreed with Leon, the kingdom would constantly be in danger from outside. If we all agreed with Chevalier, it would end up a dictatorship.”

“You’re about the only person who willingly visits the brutal beast’s lair.”

“Just so we’re clear, this doesn’t even count as a setback to me. I’ve tasted defeat countless times at the hands of a brother more beastly than anyone in Obsidian. I’ve never once made the right choice. I’m a loser, constantly making mistakes, and constantly being laughed at for them. (…) When you fail, it’s easy to give up. It’s easy to think your ideas are wrong, and yield to the right choice. But this is what I do. Every time I fail, I get up again, and I fight even harder, so that next time, maybe I won’t fail. I don’t care about what’s right for the kingdom. I stay true to what’s right for me, and that’s the only way I’ve found any meaning in my life. Even if what I believe to be right and true is actually wrong, and even if I’m called evil and wicked for doing what I do… I’ll fight against the brutal beast’s methods with everything I have in me. And I’m not going to die until I’ve made him kneel before me, and accepted that my beliefs are just as righteous as his are. (…) And since I’ve spent my life tasting nothing but defeat, I think I can declare this with some certainty. So long as you go on living, you’ll never really be a loser. Because there is no such thing. Even if you lost this time, you just have to win next time to be the winner. And if nothing else, you’d be able to die a prouder man than you will now. (…) Today’s failures will lead you to tomorrow’s hope. Always, as long as you don’t give up. And that’s why I’m going to get up and try again. What about you? Are you going to die a dog’s death here?” (—Clavis to the “Obsidianite soldier”)

“What a shame… Were my hands not bound right now… I’d already be making love to you.”

“Haha! Not a chance. I adore her.” (—Clavis denying disliking Emma to Gilbert)

I don't need an excuse to make a new character for FF14, but I'll take every excuse I can come up.

So. Let me introduce Astaria Alexandros

My attempt to make the most compelling and fulfilling story experience route.

I have not played all of the job quests so I might miss some deepening choices that would make the story experience more of a treat.

But so far I did start as a viera for the reason that she has a nice inner conflict brewing in Stormblood alliance raid series. As a viera She has left her home and clan to pursue her calling as an adventurer. A siren song of freedom of adventuring. Or an echoing calling about destiny or something else, strong enough for her to put down the Forest Code and seek a new start in Ul'dah.

Why Ul'dah? Because so much of ARR and the patches have stuff that benefits from having WOL with personal tides to Ul'dah as a starting city. And that leaves us to have a choice of gladiator, pugilist or thaumaturgy. And the thaumaturgy gives a nice lore on soul travelling so having to dwell on that even in start as a part of your personal class story is giving nice background for things to come.

I'll hope I have strength to make updates on how this turns out to be. But we see.

She finally made it and is heading to Ishgard.

Phi`etro here is reminiscent about her miner odd jobs that take her all around Thanala trying to fill orders. Lately it has been more of a full time job rather than a side gig between show fighting gigs. (Which she hasn't had at all lately, sad face.)

Oh, and now that she is doing rounds at Ishgard, be lookout as she is definitely going to go rate some swimming areas. When she saves up some gil to actually make it anywhere for a trip.

Hey, I'm rambling about IkePri again

Okay, I just need to get these thoughts I have about Gilbert von Obsidian out because I enjoy predicting stuff and overthinking design and narrative choices even tho they might not be right. :P But there really isn't that much predicting other than me overthinking about narrative and design choices. This time there will be most likely spoilers of Gilbert's route so far, and route of Clavis and some thoughts I have just gathered while playing the game in general. I try to put these thoughts in cohesive order, but well... I don't know if I can really, because I just need to get these out of my head. These are my thoughts, ramblings and opinions. Feel free to form your own and certainly disagree with me! I apologize about the lack of art in this post. I'm busy with work currently so no fanart for a while. I'm also not native English speaker, so there might be grammatical errors and such. Sorry about that. Everything under the cut.

To start with Ikemen Prince is a romance visual novel first and foremost. That doesn't mean it can't be deep (and it certainly has been deeper than I initially expect, which left me positively surprised). I suppose there is somesort of thematic vibe that there is no prince whose ideals are the main thesis of the game itself. But that also kinda leaves that fact there is no huge catharsis regarding the world and it's state. Everything so far has been left quite open. And the more I have learned about lore of the world, I really feel like anti-monarchist here xd Clavis really sold me the idea for real. Or atleast throw away the absolute monarchy. That's where I think things should go, but that's my own belief. (really, the last king of Rhodolite... He umm... I have some opinions.) Chevalier and Gilbert First things first: I don't hate or dislike Chevalier as a character. There are just some things that give me Deus Ex Machina feels. But I know it is what they are going for with him. This genius that so far ahead of everyone that it is so alien concept to rest of the people. And well that is a very hard concept to pull off without being a genius yourself as a writer. Or that is what I feel like. But what I do love is what the writers are doing with him and Gilbert in thematic sense! (Hence why Chev x Gilbert sounds so juicy to me)

I really took steps to the deep end as I started to think about why I have enjoyed Gilbert's route or was interested in his story to begin with, but have little interest in trying Chev's one. Because they are so similar but they really aren't.

How I would describe it is that where as Clavis is the complementary to Chev, the purple to his yellow, the emotionality vs rationality, the heart vs the brain, Gilbert is more like right brain to Chev's left brain. If it makes sense like that xd Their color schemes are harmonious. Not opposite. Almost like how Nokto and Licht's color schemes are harmonious with each others.

(Nokto (Blue + white + gold) vs Licht (Blue + black + gold)) Not to mention that their names clearly are meant to mean light and dark. (Licht: variant for light, Nokto: comes form latin nox or noctis, meaning night = dark) But that is a rambling for another time.) Both their crests are tigers. White and black tiger. Chev's color scheme is White + gold and black. Whereas Gilbert's is Black + gold and white. But then the overall color that game devs use to signal about the characters baffles me a bit. Gold/Yellow vs Black/dark red. They don't seem to have too much connection or that of which comes to my mind quickly and without digging deeper. (because I believe that if you dig deep enough, you have digged yourself into a trap of overthinking about things. (Justifying things because you want to justify them, which I'm not big fan of. And sometimes things don't need meaning and we have to live with that. As much as it pains my overthinker brain.)) But here is my impressions about Gilbert so far. I'm at the point where MC has left the Clavis's party (I loved it btw). Gilbert really does give me toxic INFJ villain feels, but let's not get too hang up on terms such as that. But he is someone who is driven forth by his own ideals and desire to change the world better. He, like Clavis, seems to cloak himself in this idea that he is the villain and is okay, even happy, to take that role. He is the one who, like Chevalier, has thrown away emotional attachment out of the window (or so they say) unlike Clavis who makes his choices based more on emotion rather than rational thinking. Maybe that's why I like Clavis and Gilbert, they push MC out of their black and white thinking. That things are not so easy peezy as "choose a right king and everyone will be happy". There will always be someone who is mad about it. That's why I really loved the scene with Gilbert with the orphaned kids and the Clavis's party. He seems to enjoy the company of children (who are not morally corrupted or tainted) and he really empathically listens to those who are angry. He believes in the idea that "no one remembers what you said, but they will always remember how you made them feel". (A quote with debatable origin, people say that it was coined by Maya Angelou. But I really love this quote, because I think it is the truth.) Gilbert isn't trying to rationalize against someone's choices with pure intellect. He uses empathy to guide him to the most rational outcome in that emotional scope. But he also uses this to manipulate people with fear. He uses fear extensively and he does it actively. Where as I feel like Chev just has that aura about him automatically. Hence my next thought: Action vs Stasis!

Gilbert and Clavis are action oriented. They shake the gameboard, they make the first moves. Gilbert probably more than Clavis. They both want change. Is it change for the better, we will see, I still haven't finished Gilbert's route but he really gives me this "I'm willing to become the greatest threat so that people unite to defeat me." or "I will conquer all so there will no longer be wars.". Chev, on the other hand, symbolizes stasis. His goal is to keep the kingdom of Rhodolite going. That's his duty and he is willing to take it. (even tho we can debate if that is something he really really believes in or even thinks about that much. I feel like it is out of obligation rather than of personal ideal. But alas, I have not played Chev's route yet.) Chev is reactive rather than proactive. He waits for the opponent to make the first move and reacts accordingly. (I'm not saying he is not reactive once game is on. More like "if there was not threat to deal with, he wouldn't create one".)

Chev doesn't care what you think about him. Gilbert does. He might seem like he doesn't but he is really there to prove a point. (I will pick up his dislike for lying later >.>) Chev is not. Chev knows that his way is the right way for him and that is enough for him. Chev also actively makes a "gettaway plan" for himself in Clavis. He knows that Clavis is the final thread that keeps him from going overboard because he understand that he has to be blind for "individual people" aspect to be a good ruler. Gilbert probably understands this about himself too, but he is trying to prove a point. So he needs to go overboard. Because masses of people need absolutes to react to. If it is something banal, it won't do. His evil actions need to shake the very foundation of ideas. The people have to face those things head on and see it for themselves. They cannot be sheltered. Gilbert gives me the vibes that he is willing to sacrifice himself not for the kingdom, but for the betterment of all mankind. He is happy to become the villain #1 if that means that other people will rise and take down the corrupted Obsidian or the corrupted idea. I would say that he is Lawful Good going on about things like Lawful Evil.

Gilbert asking questions means that he wants you to think, he wants to challenge your opinions and how you look at the world. Same as Clavis. They yearn for change. They want to change the world. Where as Chev wants to maintain things as they are. Chev "If it is not broken, we don't need to fix it" Michel. Where as Clavis and Gilbert want to improve the system. They are idealistic. Gilbert and lying

This is something very interesting. At first I thought that he was all "I dislike when people lie to me." but he really is "I dislike lying in all its forms." And he does say that he doesn't lie. And I'm starting to believe that is really the case. All the things he says are true. But because how other people see him, they are suspicious anyway. Like MC is. Like we all probably are when we start the route and think "So what is your trauma, baby girl?" When he is unsure or knows that he shouldn't say the thing he really thinks or that is true, he will deflect or give a very vague response. Which makes me quite happy to replay his route at somepoint with this in mind. In conclusion: Welcome to my TED talk, with no head or tail, just me overthinking about things about a otome gacha game. If you read this far, thank you for your time. Remember, if I ramble about it, it just means that I'm invested. Have a good day~

No matter what world, Nokto is gonna show the hell up for his bro

Yeah the sex was good but did it have themes and motifs

[dicenete]

Here have Gilbert warmup. I started his route (finally), 3 chapters in and there is potential for this route to rival Clavis's spot as number 1. (don't worry, Lulu, I will still fight for you. You baby girl villain.) But we will see where this goes. Gilbert gives me INFJ villain vibes and I'm here for that.

I know my style is pretty clean when it comes to lineart, sometimes I like it, sometimes I wish I could be more messy xd But here is a funny sneak peak of the stages. I post more of these kind of things for my supporters on Ko-Fi. ^^

I love to read the tags people add, it makes my day and I really need to find a way to reply to some of them since there are interesting thoughts and questions sometimes! So maybe tagging is the way? Feel free to teach me, if this is not the way xd I'm an old goblin. I thought I had asks open but I guess I didn't so now I opened them xP

@scummy-writes Other ships that I like? 😳 I'm still pretty new in this fandom but.... ... Nokto x Silvio has caught my eye. 👀 And well... Gilbert x Clavis could be interesting, them being super villains together :0 Clavis x Cyran is something that has crossed my mind too, but at the same time I really like them being platonically close too. Like very very deep friendship. I just love the "I think you are an idiot, but you are also the person I admire the most and would die for you and your cause" trope.

@m-mmiy @solacedeer @altairring @taviacoolcat 🥹 Thank you, I'm happy that you guys like my doodles of IkePri characters. <3 I really appriciate the time you take to put that into words in the tags!
