He protected me, Fitz. It took months for him to gain my trust. But after a time, whenever Queen Desire was traveling and I slept on the hearth, I felt safe. It was safe to sleep.
A comic for my giftee, hoodedcreature, in this year's RotE Winterfest. It was such a joy making this. Baby Fool!! My Heart!!

Something people really miss out on by diminishing Dick’s detective skills to make Tim’s seem way better is that they are detective bros…Dick is literally Tim’s biggest inspiration! And Tim can eventually surpass him, that’s fine—Dick and Bruce both expected that—but I think it is an important thing for Dick’s detective skills to be a major ongoing inspiration for Tim because of how great they are and how much Tim looks up to him.

what happened to boreas during the events of saint's campaign? I'd have figured because of his self sustaining properties, he'd be one of the last iterators actually functional before saint inevitably bababooeys him
-snaps fingers n fingerguns atcha- you got That right, buckaroo! Boreas indeed is still kicking just fine when Saint enters the Aeolus Root ring, especially if you ignore his mental state consisting of crushing loneliness and nasty ass giant case of guilt. i told Shkiki this- i geniunely think he'd only die if a lot of ice would block his water filtration systems. he's like a damn cucaracha
(see, Beebee is stationed very high up north n i think he's close enough to the sea that he uses That as his water supply. he runs Very cold, much more so than a normal Iterator- this is mostly the case cuz i wanna give the greek god Boreas shout out with it, but in-universe can be blamed on his sheer massive size. he needs to keep himself as cold as possible. can't exactly cool his systems with solid ice tho and so this person who doesn't like/can't handle other people Needs these other people that warm up the atmosphere n keep the polar caps at bay. so honestly even tho he's fine n dandy when Saint finds him, he was already living on borrowed time)
Saint has a bossfight with Boreas just like with Sliver except Boreas is.. kinda more sturdy n also more aggressive n has a bigger chamber- he's like Sliver+, that girl was a weasel. hard mode Sliver.
it takes a bit, but eventually Boreas' puppet falls and the antigravity stutters to a stop. i imagine that working iterators that put up a fight need multiple blasts before they completely die because each blast is killing only a portion of the Hivemind, then the rest of it rushes to fill in the holes, that gets blasted and the process is repeated until there's no more of the collective left. so you can imagine what kind of state B is prolly in after like 9 direct blasts
torn apart, exhausted and so much more smaller n lonelier than before, Boreas finally stops fighting and instead huddles in a corner. for once absolutely terrified out of his mind n insterestingly enough- regretful. he tries to send out a warning signal to the rest of the group, but he can't manage it with how diminished he's become. Saint approaches. Boreas doesn't plead for mercy. he stares the rat down even when its eyes wildly flash
Saint finishes him off. Leaves. Notos watched the whole thing
to say that Notos is fuckin Traumatized from that is an understatement. its special overseer stays with Boreas' puppet beeping at it for an hour, waiting for him to wake up. but of course, nothing
now, i'll add- Beebee n Notty didn't ever really Fully Click together. either they didn't interact much because of their "i gotta work, man" mentalities, they were shit at interaction or they barked at each other (even in mythology it says that fights between Boreas and Notos were catastrophic and absolutely terrifying- fun fact! Notos actually seems more dangerous than Boreas from what i've read n this Is meant to be reflected with the Anemoi Iterators too). like i've had the idea that when Notos calls for an elder brother n Boreas n Euros look up, it'd specify "the elder brother that I actually appreciate" when needin Euros
either way, these two were still siblings and Boreas *did* Mentor Notos when it needed it (along with Euros; the Winds r kinda like a lil self-sustaining group within the bigger group- they are "Elite"/Leading Iterators of The Children of Eo after all) n they still like... Loved each other. even when Notos cut the communications with him after everything started going down the drain, it still loved him. n it regrets some things it said to him (thoughtless.. cruel things...) but cuz of the way it is as a person it never decided to step up n be the one to reestablish contact and apologize
and now Boreas is dead. one of the first iterators of the group gone, maybe the third. it can never say now, how it is so sorry and never meant it

i'm a huge impostor fan, and i'd love to hear your thoughts on him once you've finished the anime! i hope you enjoy it, i certainly did!
I really liked him in the end! I liked him in the game too, but he WAS the tragic 1st victim so not much to work with. I like that he is actually just. A kind motherfucker. He seems to genuinely care about people and treats them with dignity even as strangers (which is a low bar but, Danganronpa). I think he did have an ulterior motive with Ryota, namely that it was clearly someone uninterested in being ... himself, and I sort of got the feeling that Impostor was desperate for Someone To Be (maybe partially because he can't reveal himself, partially because he doesnt wanna be himself either, yay common ground). But no one made him help Ryota as much as he did! Hes a good dude,
And in the game, all bets are off, he still does his best just to keep people okay! I still think of him as like, the first person Hajime felt a sort of almost bond with? And after he game he's the one person Hajime trusts to be In Charge if he steps away lol.
Also I imagine he might feel guilty about introducing Mikan to the situation that ended up her downfall (even if I disregard the anime method, he can still be connected to Mikan meeting Junko probably). But he and Mikan could be should be friends :(
I like to think of him and Ryota as besties! Or perhaps.... could it be? Nay, I shan't say it ....... 👀
