Chapter 13: Back To You
Tumblr media
“Kiara is gonna murder you, you know?” Your voice was raw and meek, your body adjusting to a seated position in your bed.
“I know. I’ll deal with my death sentence later. Right now we need to talk. No more ignoring me. No more bullshit. Just talk.” Tom gently closed your bedroom door behind him once you nodded your head in agreement.
“Okay…”
The air filled with silence, only your heartbeats and tension consuming the room.
“What did-“ “Is it true?”
You both spoke at the same time. Brows furrowed, you gazed up at him. “Is what true?”
“Are you…ya know…” He attempted to gesture with his hands. Tom was having a hard time saying it out loud, as if it would it be any less real if he kept the words locked in a little box inside of himself. Sweaty palms ran over his thighs before he was able to finally speak again. His fearful eyes lifted to your quizzical ones. “Are you really pregnant?”
You sputtered, nearly choking on your own saliva. Not a single thing could have prepared you for that question.
“Am I what?!" Your eyes widened, a mixture of horror and panic bubbling up in your chest. “Who the fuck do you think you are? You have no right to come in her—“
“I’m your boyfriend,” he yelled, his volume surprising the both of you.
“Was…was my boyfriend.” Your voice was small and fragile, your eyes refusing to make contact with his watery ones. That’s what you wanted though, right? None of this was actually real anyway. What was one more nail in the coffin?
“Since when?”
“Tom, what’s the point of all this? This is stupid,” you resigned, finally standing up from your cocoon of safety, your blanket falling to the bed.
“No! No, what’s stupid is you suddenly disappearing from my life after I tell you I love you. If you don’t feel the same, fine, but at least have the balls to tell me.” He waved his finger pointedly at you. You nearly growled as you slapped it out your face.
“Oh, fuck off with your pity party, Thomas! That’s not why I haven’t returned your calls!”
“Then why have you been ignoring me?!”
“Because you hurt me!” It spilled from your lips like water from a broken faucet, your eyes widening at your own outburst.
Tom’s eyes matched yours before his they fell to the floor, his forehead scrunching up as you watched him process your words. You could see the gears turning, his face almost comically readable. His lips parted, a soft whisper of a question blowing through, “When?”
“What?” You scoffed.
“When did I hurt you?” His voice was shakier now, thoughts running through his mind of how he could have hurt you. Was he too rough with you? Did he push you into things you hadn’t wanted?
“It doesn’t matter, Tom. You don’t remember,” Your hand frustratedly ran over your face as you sighed.
“What don’t I remember? Mouse, you gotta—“ he began stepping towards you until you spoke again.
“That! What is that!”
“What is what?” His brows furrowed, increasingly becoming more confused and slightly annoyed.
“Mouse. Why do you call me that?” You pointed accusingly at him, your eyes narrowing as you paused for his response.
“I…” he sputtered.
“Why do you call me Mouse, Tom?”
In all honesty, he hadn’t even realized he had started calling you that again. It just slipped from his lips like the ‘I love you’ he uttered. He swallowed the lump in his throat before speaking.
“Because you’re as quiet as a mouse so—“
“No I’m not,” you cut him off, the air in the room suddenly becoming too thick for you. “I used to be though. When I first got that nickname….when you first gave me that nickname, Tom…”
It was as if the truth dawned on the both of you at the same time. Wheels began to turn, conversations and little moments floating through your memories at warp speed. You remembered him and he remembered you. He couldn’t fathom why you’d even give him a second glance if you remembered him and you felt the same for an entirely different reason.
“Y/N..” He began.
“Don’t.” You took a step back for every step he took forward, tears welling up in your eyes.
“You remembered me…this entire time….you remembered what you did to me—said to me….and you never said anything? What, was I just some conquest? Let’s see how many times I can sleep with the fat girl before she realizes she’s just a fucking joke?!” Your thoughts ran wild, spiraling through a tunnel of what ifs and what nows.
“It wasn’t like that and you know it!” He defended. The fact that you could even think he’d do something so cruel made him physically sick.
“How would I have known that, Tom? You hated me! You didn’t even want to be seen with me and suddenly I’m supposed to believe you love me?!” Your widened eyes instantly narrowed into crinkled slits at his suggestion.
“I have always loved you! I was a dumb kid who didn’t know how to handle his feelings, okay? I wanted to be cool, to fit in. It wasn’t right and for that I’ll forever be sorry. But please, please don’t ever second guess how much I love you.” His eyes shone with tears, begging and pleading for you to believe him.
Truly, with every fiber of your being, all you wanted was to believe him. The way he held you, looked at you, treated you - it all felt like love. You had shut yourself off to the possibility of love for so long that it was hard to decipher what was real and what wasn’t.
The teenager in you was so petrified that if you gave in, gave him even the tiniest bit of you, he’d break you again.
You didn’t think you’d be able to survive that kind of heartbreak again.
Tom could sense your reluctance, and before it could settle into your bones and keep you numb forever, he spoke. “Y/N, please. I need you to understand that I’m not that kid anymore…”
Your eyes concentrated on a stain on your carpet, its pattern suddenly becoming the most fascinating thing to you as you processed his plea. When you finally lifted your gaze, tears had begun to pool.
“I’m not the same kid anymore either, Tom. I went through a lot of shit after what happened. I was fucked up for a long time….I don’t know if you realize how fucked up…” You began to shrink in on yourself, flashes of panic attacks, nights crying and screaming, scratches and cuts ‘numbing’ the pain took hold of your vision. Your mind and body were being transported back to those times and Tom acknowledged what was happening almost instantaneously. His hands found yours, carefully resting them against his chest so you could feel his breaths and mimic the pace.
A blurry Tom slowly came into focus, concern etched on his boyish form.
“Are you back with me?” His voice trembled, something you weren’t used to hearing. He was always so strong, so sure of himself. You weren’t used to the fear in his voice and on his features.
Worried eyes scanned over your face, a sigh leaving his parted lips at your tiny nod.
“I’m so sorry. I can never apologize enough for what my words, my actions, everything, did to you. I’ll spend the rest of my life trying to make it up to you…if you let me….”
You desperately wanted to believe him. To sink into his arms and just not have to think for a night. To turn off all of your thoughts and just be for once. Everything you had seen over the last few months lead you to believe that he had changed, he wasn’t the naive teen he was back then and he wasn’t going to throw your feelings through a blender so mindlessly as he had before.
Heart battled against mind as you stared into his hopeful honey brown hues.
“You sound like you’re proposing to me…” You tilted your head, a wary smile stretching across your pouted lips.
“Don’t even joke about that because I’ll get down on one knee right now.” A subtle wink and confident smile finished off his statement, his bravado returning tenfold at your shift in demeanor.
“Slow it down, ass. I haven’t even agreed to officially be your girlfriend again…for real this time.” You fluttered your lashes at him, easing back into comfortability with the boy you knew, the boy you loved. As sure of your feelings as you were, it would still take some time to fully open yourself up to him.
“May I take you on a date, then? A real one. Real me and real you.” His eyes pleaded with yours.
“So much real in one sentence.” You kidded.
“I’ll take that as a yes.”
Tumblr media
Heart beating wildly, your sweaty palms clasped onto your chest as you panted. A myriad of LED lights twinkled in your eyesight, spanning the entire living room of your apartment. Your owlish eyes flitted from one ecstatic face to another, their hands up in the air in celebration.
“You asshole,” you muttered under your breath, hands coming down to grip your shoulders from behind.
Tom’s breath grazed the shell of your ear as he leaned in, “You love me.”
“Keep telling yourself that,” you mumbled once again before plastering a wide, toothy grin on your lips, your arms opening to pull Kiara in.
“Happy Birthday, bitch!” You knew that even though Tom more than likely planned this surprise party, Kiara was clearly the one left to decorate and greet all the guests while Tom distracted you. This would explain why she was tripping over her own feet, the shots she had taken prior to calm her nerves finally kicking in.
“You know I hate surprises. How much did he pay you to do this?” You teased, elbowing Tom gently in the stomach as you mentioned him. He faked a groan, wrapping his arms around yours to keep them at your sides. Less movement for you meant less violence for him.
Coward.
“ ‘e didn’t pay anything,” she slurred. “Jus’ wanted to make you—“ A hiccup. “happy little birthday girl.” She ended her drunken performance with a gentle pat on your cheek and a satisfied smile.
“Hey, let’s check out how soft your bed is, yeah?” Lucas gently coaxed the bottle out of Kiara’s hand and her stumbling form towards her room. He whispered a happy birthday on his way past you.
You squirmed your body to turn in Tom’s tight embrace, your eyes narrowing into slits as you tried to come off as intimidating.
“You’re kind of cute, ya know?” He was. Not just physically, but deep within his soul.
“I kind of appreciate that, I guess.” Tom chuckled, reaching his hand up to cup your warm cheek.
“You’re kind of beautiful, Mouse.” He punctuated his thought with a gentle kiss to the tip of your nose.
You playfully scoffed, pushing against his chest to glare up at him. “Kind of? Well then I guess you’re just kind of okay in bed.”
“Your shaking legs say otherwise, mouse.” Tom smirked, pulling you right back into his body. He dipped his head down, his lips ghosting over yours before pressing firmly to taste your grape tinted lip stain. Butterflies released from the cage within your heart to flutter through your stomach as it usually did whenever you were in his arms.
It wasn’t easy to get to this point. As much as you wanted to forgive him and believe every word he said, the wall around your heart wouldn’t allow it.
He started off slow after attempting to take you out on a date. He was considerate and understanding when you told him you needed a bit of time before jumping right back in.
You were the first to initiate contact with him, a simple text to check in. You felt like you were in middle school again, in a way you were. It wasn’t an attempt to rewrite history, that was impossible and you wouldn’t be who you were today without everything that happened, but it was a fresh start.
Scars were revealed over time, both internal and external. There were nights where you cried and screamed at him and instead of running away, he held you and let you get it all out. His warming tone spoke praises and apologies against the crown of your head when you became too exhausted to fight. It was an uphill battle and he held on the entire time, never once deeming it ‘too much’ as you feared he would.
If you were ever concerned his feelings for you waned over time, those thoughts were quickly demolished the night he broke down in tears at your feeble attempts to once again push him away. You were sure he’d grow tired of you and instead of allowing it to happen gradually, you decided to get rid of him all at once. What you didn’t expect was for him to cry and question his own worth, his own place in your heart. He had seemed so sure of himself for so long that you didn’t even stop to think how all of this was affecting him. You felt selfish.
That night you metaphorically picked up a hammer and began to chip away at the wall surrounding your heart.
After six months of going back and forth, you asked him on a date. The smile that adorned his face would be etched into your memories til the day you die. His childlike enthusiasm told you you made the right choice.
Eights months after you revealed your true selves to each other, you let him back into your bed. There was no timeline for when you let him back into your heart because you’re not really sure you ever let him leave it.
One year since the day you bumped into each other and your lives were nowhere near where you’d imagine it’d be. Your 25th birthday felt like a cruel joke the universe was playing on you. Now, on your 26th, it was as if the universe was finally reconciling all the wrongdoings it had done to you.
Tom looked on adoringly at you as you mingled with your guests, his hands moving to tuck into his jean pockets. His fingers gingerly twisted the ring that rested in them. Some might have thought it was too soon but Tom never had to second guess his feelings for you. You were it. There was no reason to run from that feeling.
As you glanced up at him, your smile widening when you caught him staring back at you, he knew this was right where he was supposed to be.

Kaeya had always been an efficient and hard-working individual (he had to be to support Diluc in the background as his brother rose thru the ranks after all).
He has so much free time because he completes all his work way ahead of schedule. And if he still has enough time, he adds more to the workload in secret.
And once all of that was done and over with, he makes time for everyone. He has to. He feels as if every moment has to be given to someone else.
No one knows how he does it. No one has to know.
Every mission has a dozen strategies in line, and every battle plan is made with efficiency in mind. His perfect record will not be tarnished. He can't risk it (even if it baffles others that he would willingly activate a ruin guard just to prevent a failed mission. Jean disagrees with his methods, but Kaeya can say that the results say otherwise)
He needs to be quick.
Efficient.
Perfect.
And so he comes and goes like the wind.
Kaeya values time because he knew every second counted. He can't just stand there as if he were frozen. Time could run out in an instant.
Kaeya had only been late once his entire life.
He'd rather he never be late ever again.
It took one day of being of being imperfect for everything to fall apart. On that tragic day...had he gotten there on time... then maybe...
.
.
.
" Come on, let's get moving, traveler. We're not frozen in place after all. " Kaeya teasingly says. He stiffles a giggle at the traveler's exhasperated sigh.
"Yeah yeah, we've heard enough of you calling us a slacker. Can't you be a bit more patient?" Paimon whines at him.
Kaeya snorts, but acquiesces, hiding the shaking of his hands at the thought of being idle.
He imagines hearing a clock ticking.
Kaeya knows that that is his own problem. He tries his hardest to relax as he waits for the traveler to finish whatever they're making on the alchemy table because, seriously, it is supposed to be a relaxing day. There's nothing major going on, and his schedule is once again empty as intended. What's the hurry?
Kaeya taps his foot on the ground as he waits. He wishes he could take his own damn advice when he tells others to relax.
#kaeyachi randoms#kaeya#kaeya alberich#this is actually shorter than it originally was can yall believe?#kaeya with anxiety truther there i said it#kaeya cant stand being IDLE#get it? get it?#you see that is a play of words in reference to when he is stood idle on our screens. he is one of the more verbally impatient characters#and we also see it reflected on his actions both in fighting and at work. he has a speed boost bonus and if he isnt teleporting he is#actually moving so fast that he seems like it. this is what i also concluded that results him in large amounts of free time that only amber#seemed to be hardpressed about. the people of mondstadt find him reliable and approachable despite the lax attitude and frequent nights at#angels share. we also had lore tidbits before of kaeya straight up saying he finished all his work and jean saying that he also did the#backlogged ones. It is actually insane that we hear him relaxing frequently and i bet its not because of the lack of horses COZ LOOK AT HOW#BUSY THE OTHER CAPTAINS ARE. Also id like to think that he is a toned down noelle and that is why jean told him to watch over her training#give us noelle and kaeya interactions pls i kinda need it tbh#to all those that reached this far into the notes i actually have more to say so get ready#if it wasnt clear the only day he was late was when crepus died. everything fell apart for him that day so i can see some obsessive need to#just keep running around and doing things as efficient as possible. I also think that he found the knights slow and inefficient in several#occasions and he is willing to put them in the line of fire just to get their hearts pumping with adrenaline (and fear lol). idk kaeya is#just so anxiety-coded. impatience-core. Mr. dont waste my time type of guy. and also wow look i found a way to make his idles become angst#silly me ehe#oh youre still here? how about i tell you that kaeya-efficiency-alberich probably knows where everyone is at any time of the day?#can we honestly please give him more free time i need more of him tbh#fun reminder that bro is working around 3-4 jobs casually lmao#i also just realized that the notes is a whole nother post on its own#AND THE ACTUAL FUNNY PART IS I CAN STILL ELABORATE MORE ON THIS LMAO#wait let me add this one tiny idea too but he thinks time is so valuable. bro lost 2 dads and lost time with his bro + he significantly#lessened his time at dawn winery for quite some time. i can see why he is extroverted now.

saw someone saying Etoiles death was like a supernova and fuck man.
the death of a star, collapsing in on itself, unable to bear its own weight. this great, unbelievable fallout from its death, a phenomenon that’s colossal, that’s celestial. Etoiles who’s confidence collapses, who’s streak is ruined, because he took on so many codes at once assuming there were no tricks he wasn’t aware of, and lost. the loss of a star can mean the doom of the planets it provides for - Etoiles loss means he can no longer properly protect the island from the codes. no more heat to provide warmth and growth, no more shield to provide protection.
stars die like anything else, but to witness such a thing in this lifetime? it seems like it should be impossible. and yet here we are

This group that you used to work with, the Nobodies, do you resent them for all leaving you? Absolutely fucking not, I would have done the same. They very, very smartly took off and I very, very happily took the debt. It’s what you do for family, you fucking take care of them.

What happens your past trauma does not loosen their grip? I suppose my first instinct would be to break its fingers.

I’m out.

#i dont think i’ve talked my nonverbal!Diluc hc on here yet#but i keep seeing posts abt disability/chronjcally ill/neurodivergent hcs for genshin characters so here’s one from me#idk i feel like after That Night™️ and being on the run from the Fatui/working with a secret organization#diluc not just learns the ‘value’ of keeping secrets and staying quiet but also internalizes his guilt and trauma of saying smth that could#hurt people#it started with him telling Kaeya that he’s not a Ragnvindr anymore and then is exacerbated by his 3-4 Year Fatui Murder Rampage thru Teyvat#and with all ghat trauma and self-deprecation and paranoia he just. stops talking.#he picks up sign language in Fontaine and still writes but at some point he just stops talking and never speaks again#when he comes back to Mondstadt it was hard to adjust to for both him and the people around him#Kaeya initially assumes that Diluc just refuses to talk to him until he later hears gossip abt how no one has ever heard him speak since he#came back. he goes to Adelinde and/or Elzer abt it and they tell him that they neve even hear Diluc so much as hum or grunt#afterwards everyone changes up real fast— Kaeya and Venti drinking at the bar and seemingly just talking at Diluc but they’re always#observing his reactions and body language even when they’re drunk#Jean tries her best to be patient but she has a hard time reading him bc he’s changed so much in the time he’s been gone#Adelinde & Elzer and the winery staff are the most communicative he’s with— Diluc is far more likely to write with them to communicate#at some point Diluc has a business meeting with some rich dude from Fontaine or smth#Kaeya walks in bc he has an actual important mission thinf to discuss and he sees Diluc and this Fontaine dude and the dude’s wife#moving their hands so fast and with all kinds of gestured and stuff#and it’s the first time Kaeya sees Diluc look so EXPRESSIVE— he’s frowning and raising his eyebrows and mouthing words and all this#and Kaeya just goes ‘what’#turns out the Fontainian dude is deaf and both him and his hearing wife know sign; she helps interpret this to kaeya for the dude and Diluc#and Kaeya is like ‘oh okay’ and goes to the kitchen like ‘i’ll just wait here till yall are finished’#and he sees Adelinde and Elzer there with stoic faces and they just. stand there in quiet for so long.#Kaeya finally says ‘…..so. sign language huh’ and Adelinde and Elzer have the most pained looks on their faces#later that week Diluc finds like everyone around suddenly doing basic signs with him#he later learns that the winery has ordered a shitton of signing books from Fontaine and are trying to learn#+ Kaeya and Jean too with help from Lisa bc like dont you know learning several languages is a requirement for graduation from the Akademiya#soon the use of sign starts spreading in Mondstadt— there might be some small communities where they have their own native sign but it’s not#as standardized nor widely known as it is in Fontaine#this is getting really long so I’ll stop here but yeah. nonverbal Diluc who signs fjskdjs

some more ships i couldn't fit in the other post + an example of what im planning to do with the actual keychains
i think ill have them link via magnetic hearts, because i've seen a couple of people do keychains with those and they're super cute. and then if people want just a single keychain without any ship involved, they'll have a little full heart dangling off where the half would usually be :>
the designs where i actually have the characters standing next to each other will be the stickers^^

As usual three songs for three stories/characters/themes below.
First song up is for Abigail Emmet, the mother of Mario, and just as much as a terrifying alien soul-and-meat-eating shapeshifter as he is. She's been around for a while, even hitching with the Van der Linde Gang as the third founding (adult) member, sticking with it until she and Molly got the hell out of there after witnessing the effect Hosea's death had on Dutch and Micah being a rat. Saddening that Abigail outlived Molly (given her alien origins), but she never once stopped thinking fondly about the O'Shea poet, even when raising Mario. This song absolutely details her longing for Molly, while also letting go for the sake of Mario.
youtube
"Lately, I've been waking up In a dreamy state, calling your name Stayed up too late just thinking of you Now I'm knocking on every door 'Cause I heard you moved from twenty-two Has it been that long? I guess time just flew
I've got voices in my head and there's a deafening silence I've got voices in my head and I can't lie
I've been holding on to pieces Swimming in the deep end Tryna find my way back to you 'cause I'm needing A little bit of love A little bit of love, I need a little love Just like the air I'm breathing These open wounds ain't healing Tryna find my way back to you 'cause I'm needing A little bit of love A little bit of love, a little bit of love A little bit of love
I tried to fly but I used my wings too soon Now everything got me thinking of you I tried a million times to cut you loose."
Next up, a song for Silva's Hope and maybe a bit of Old Dusk, the two main stories for Silva in Far Cry The Silver Chronicles. I think it just fits the religious themes found in the fics' and the game, but also twisting it to reveal the darker and lighter aspects that not only come off as seductive but reveal what's exactly underneath the surface of the Voice's Prophecy and the Collapse, and whether it's better to choose the safer path and obey the prophecy while risking loss of identity and restricted by extremely controlling expectations that are unrealistic or take the risk and step out of the status quo for the sake of having the freedom to choose and to defy a fate other's push onto themselves and their neighbors, all the while having to contend with the possibility of being lost in the unknown.
youtube
"Call me wild, drinkin' up the sunshine Be my man and show me what it feels like Denim sky, unbuttoned down the middle Spillin' out little by little
Tiger on the prowl East of Eden Comin' for you now
Keep me from the cages under the control Runnin' in the dark to find east of Eden Keep me from the cages under the control Runnin' in the dark to find east of Eden
To find east of Eden (Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh) To find east of Eden (Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh) To find east of Eden (Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh) To find east of Eden (Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)
If I wanted to stay You don't mind, you're a true believer (True believer) Take it up with the badlands Creep on in like a concrete fever
If I wanted to stay You don't mind, you're a true believer (True believer) Take it up with the badlands Creep on in like a concrete fever."
And finally something for the antagonists. Ranging from the charming yet arrogant Edward Carmine to the callous and controlling Zachariah from The UnTitledverse. From the hypocritical monster that is Father Adam Omar to the fatalistic pessimism that fuels Paul Yellowjack's miserable self-loathing in Far Cry The Silver Chronicles. From the Court King who wants to conquer his worlds back, to the Director of the Midnight Rise, Sir Enigma Malvolio, who brings despair wherever his expeditions take him throughout Life, Despair & Monsters. From the well-meaning extremist Xiang Ba'al to the Mad God of Carnage himself, Discord in the originals works that will diverge from Wings And Horns. There are many more of interest, but the list is as tall as the rest of my original characters. But one commonality can be found with these characters... a question that evades an answer... will they ever be satisfied after reaching their goals? Or... will they go further until they've crashed and burned?
ALSO! TW: There is brief mention of suicidal idealization in one verse with probably more mature themes hidden in the lyrics. Just putting it out there to be weary listening and reading.
youtube
"I was pulling out my hair The day I got the deal Chemically calm Was I meant to feel happy That my life was just about to change?
One life pretending to be The cat who got the cream Oh, everybody said, "Marina is a dreamer" People like to tell you what you're gonna be It's not my problem if you don't see what I see And I do not give a damn if you don't believe
My problem, it's my problem that I never am happy It's my problem, it's my problem on how fast I will succeed
Are you satisfied with an average life? Do I need to lie to make my way in life?
High achiever, don't you see? Baby, nothing comes for free They say I'm a control freak Driven by a greed to succeed Nobody can stop me
'Cause it's my problem if I wanna pack up and run away It's my business if I feel the need to smoke and drink and sway It's my problem, it's my problem if I feel the need to hide And it's my problem if I have no friends and feel I want to die
Are you satisfied with an average life? Do I need to lie to make my way in life? Are you satisfied with an easy ride? Once you cross the line, will you be satisfied?
Sad inside, in this life Unsatisfied, praying Sad inside, in this life Unsatisfied, waiting
Are you satisfied with an average life? Do I need to lie to make my way in life? Are you satisfied with an easy ride? Once you cross the line, will you be satisfied?
Black, white (Are you satisfied, are you satisfied? Are you satisfied?) Are you satisfied? Black, white (Are you satisfied, are you satisfied?) Black, white (Are you satisfied, are you satisfied?) Are you satisfied? Black, white."

I’ve been told that they aren’t, and these are just the Epics to come with the update, but that’s not the point I’m making
The point is that I’m noticing just how many new Legendary/premium tier groups there have been. Just in 2024 alone, we got the Novas in Ovenbreak, the Beasts in Kingdom, and then the Archons/First Cream’s group in Witch’s Castle. That’s 3 groups and we’re not even halfway through the year
On some level it feels like they keep trying to give us new big things to be excited about, while not delivering on their already made promises, such as bringing in the Ovenbreak Legendaries, which they teased in late 2022 and we’ve only gotten one new one so far (not counting Pitaya)
It’s like me coming up with a new idea every couple of days and abandoning previous ideas I said I was going to work on, especially with AUs. Except I’m not a company with millions of players, I’m one scatterbrained, ADHD riddled person. So following my example is a very bad idea
I mean maybe let some new Legendaries just be one offs, like Xylitol Nova and just let it be one space themed update, or maybe First Cream (though I don’t know enough about her yet to say). The Beasts can stay, they work as a group since they’re basically evil Ancients/the original holder of the Soul Jams, though maybe they should have come after the White Lily chapter, and have Beast Yeast come after her story, after all the Ancients are recruited, instead of jamming in new hooks and shuffling the actual focus to the background
Like at this point I’m getting concerned about this company, since these releases feel like short term getting your money for promise of future updates while neglecting the hooks already set up (like the Dragons or Dark Enchantress (especially Dark Enchantress)), and it’s not gonna go well in the long run. Granted I’m not knowledgeable in how businesses work so what do I know?
I mean personally I just want closure to arcs that have been set up, as well as possibly seeing my old favorites again, I don’t really care that much about the company itself, I don’t even pay money. It’s just that they make the stories that I like and want to see more of
