#literally you know how our dear old friend saber has a bajillion alts

[holdharmonysacred]

i have figured out how to visualize and comprehend the relationship between p and carlo in lies of p. the problem is to explain it to people, i would have to explain how Artoria Fatehell and her many alts work, and that might be a tough demographic crossover to wrangle!

#literally you know how our dear old friend saber has a bajillion alts #who all differ because they have their own little life quirks and gimmicks #like salter being what if saber but evil and the lancers being what if artoria but older and using a lance #and lily being what if artoria but babie and heroine x being wacky space cartoon artoria #and castoria having her own Everything #and they're all different artorias from their own little timelines and the like #but they're also all undeniably artoria to their very core #that's what i think p and carlo can boil down to (for a given definition of boiling down) #is they are artoria-style alts of each other via reincarnation/resurrection mechanics #they're both different boys with their own lives and quirks. but they're both undeniably the same boy at their core. #and you could theoretically have both running around in the same way that all the artorias can be in the same building at the same time #i type these tags as if this would make LITERALLY ANY SENSE to someone who isn't brain poisoned by fate as a series #anyway i propose we cook up a wacky space cartoon alt for p/carlo now because it would be very funny
