Essentially this dungeon is just a way of introducing you to the new form of Skeith

after the dungeon, Kuhn, who was very quiet during the dungeon, opens up in an e-mail

he's doing his best

Alkaid sends an...interesting e-mail

Remember, the reason for Sirius's behavior is AIDA. Who would have information on sumthing like that.
23:26
Hidden Forbidden are always used as the first two words for non-randomized areas like the church
23:26
Battlefield is a new one tho
23:26
while logging in we jump to Alkaid at the Battlefield

Shaiapouf 22-Mar-22 11:33 PM
for all that Haseo's been focused on keeping Atoli safe, Alkaid, with a completely normal character, was way more exposed to danger
23:33
it was a blind spot
23:33
and this is the result of trying to keep his uninvolved friends in the dark on these things
23:34
Alkaid's character on the party member select is grayed out and Haseo will comment on her coma if you try and select her.
23:34
This is going to remain the case for a long, long time.
23:35
the reason this game has been going so slowly up until this point is because it wanted to develop that relationship as much as it possibly could, while there was still time
23:37
in our inbox, we have a single e-mail, from Atoli.
23:37

That's typical for this area type but it does fit the vibe

Shaiapouf 22-Mar-22 11:48 PM
Atoli is actually in pretty good spirits for once. In this shot you can really clearly see how her hand is still disintegrating, which I find darkly funny.
23:49
23:49
Kuhn isn't really here for this, he's just the filler party member. It's very awkward that he's just standing here lmao
23:49
23:49
23:49
23:49
23:49
23:50
23:51
and haseo takes out his anger on some AIDA
23:51
which is a pretty good outlet, as far as haseo is concerned
23:51
afterwards...
23:51
23:51
23:51
23:51
23:52
23:52
23:52

and they immediately both arguing that this is their fault, and not the others...

23:53
23:53
23:53
23:53
23:54
they just kinda stand there in silence for a while, and the scene ends.
23:54
this argument is so fuckin sad
23:55
Atoli: I'm gonna go.
23:55
haseo: ...yeah...

23:55
and she runs off

maybe one day Haseo will have a costume you like

I kind of feel like this leaves Atoli a very slim number of options

is she gonna do a Luna instead?

that would be a solid alternative

only the guy with the anime villain eyes wants revenge on humanity on behalf of the monsters or something, I forget?

and then shit happens and she becomes evil

and hot

So
00:07
Evil, Hot Atoli
00:07
is your prediction
00:08
I can dig it
00:08
anyways we'll find out before too long
00:08
as Alkaid's comatose body has fallen on the gas pedal
00:08
and there are no more breaks
Avatar
archaeo 23-Mar-22 12:08 AM
Evil and Hot seems like a solid guess, anyway?
00:09
like you can't do a protagonist switch where Haseo is the one who gets owned this time and you like, start the next game as Atoli
00:09
because I already know LK dropped off that game and there's no way she would've under those circumstances
