Day 8 Gemini
"Which one of us is truthfully ourselves here, brother?"
Yes hello trying to catch up (incoherent screeching)
[Who else was cheering for Poll to beat up Castor like it's a WWE kbdujsbkucuseb]
I. AM. NOT OKAY.😭😭 BRO I AM ON MY. KNEES. PLEASEEE GIVE US A SEASON TWO STORY TACO OML 😭🙏🙏
OKAY NOW FOR DISCUSSION:
FIRST SHOUT OUT TO CONFRONTATIONAL ARKY GOTTA BE ONE OF MY FAVORITE GENDERS 😩🙏
OK
THE THE. THE FRICKEN POLLUX IS CASTOR PLOTTWIST⁉️
I SAT OVER HERE DRAWING THE POLLUX BDAY ART .JUST. COMPLETELY ABSENTED MINDED OF THE FACT THAT POLLUX AND CASTOR LITERALLY PULLED A TWIN SWAP CLICHE ON US THAT IS SO FUNNY TO ME.
HE'S SO TRAGIC ☹️
BTW I ALMOST FELL OUT OF MY CHAIR READING THIS I CANNOT BELIEVE THIS WAS THE CASE THE ENTIRE TIME OH MY GOD
I MEAN THINKING ABOUT IT I SHOULD'VE EXPECTED IT BUT STILL (EVEN SIRIUS WAS STUNNED)
Also teehee the dots are connecting with mythology again UGH it's so smart with what they pulled off I loved this closing arc for pollux
or I mean castor???
I'm not stretching right???
Also did they ever clarify what castor's fate of misfortune was? Unless I missed it, it's gotta be referring to his death right? Deffo gonna reread the story for when my arcana twilight withdrawals kick in to reanalyze EVERYTHING bc that will be fun
MORE MYTHOLOGY‼️
I've would also love to shout out how much of Arky's role of guiding us out of the Boundry can be paralleled to the greek god Hermes and what he symbolizes BUT BRO
CAN YOU HEAR MY UTTER ANGUISH?????? MY UTTER DESPAIR?????? I AM UNCONSOLABLE
I DUNNO IF I'LL EVER RECOVER FROM THIS LINE 😭 SORRY IT'S JUST ME PARALLELING SUMMONER AND VEGA TO ORPHEUS AND EURYDICE AGAIN. AND. AND. HOW RELEVENT IT IS TO THEIR BACKSTORY AND VEGAS TRAUMA OF BEING ABANDONED BUT
THIS IS SUCH A PERFECT LINE. THE BOW ON TOP OF HIS CHARACTER ARC. I COULD NOT BE HAPPIER
THIS MAY OR MAY NOT BE BECAUSE OF HOW MUCH A HADESTOWN FAN I AM SO IGNORE ME
Ok so at the end I was like NERVOUS bc there was the chance they could have MAYBE pulled off two different endings depending on whether summoner personally wanted to stay or go back to Mid Earthium- which would have been a cool opportunity that Storytaco could have pulled,, but I guesss instead they did the thing where the choices triggered the same response, but this time in the sense that the rest is left to your imagination:
*you turn around = you stay back at the Boundry with the boys (this is because if you turn around the portal magic thingy won't work)
*or you listen to arcturus = keep walking until you arrive back home (earth)
Personally I chose to turn around bc ,one, the story never really gave me TOO much reason to want to go back home- however it was back there- and two I WAS YELLING THROUGH THE SCREEN NOO I DONT TO LEAVEEE 😭😭 THE WHOLE TIME
Also the voice we hear at the end says
"Can you hear? I have a story I desperately want to tell."
And I?? Can't exactly tell what it means?..OTHER THAN A TEASER FOR MORE CONTENT?? MAYBE PONTENTIALLY?? But if it's actually obviously something else I missed please tell me 😭
Pollux and vega ending arc top tier.
Arcturus hmm I wish they didn't gloss over the void arc so quickly 🤔
If they could have fitted it in there I would have loved if they had just a BIT more of a satisfying conclusion for spica and alpheratz yknow? :( just me??
And finally. I can be slow,,, so if there's anyone out there that can explain Sirius's whole spiel with polaris and everything with the time travel.,,,,,,, I really would appreciate it bc I'm still trying to understand 😭
(Story taco if you're reading this please make more story I love these characters too much ☹️)
spica and alpheratz are neither married nor divorced but a third, worse thing
ARCANA TWILIGHT DAY 13: QUEEN TET ( IM DOING THIS BEFORE CLASS I DIDNT WANT TO MISS A DAY 😭)
featuring an OC I don't think I shared on Tumblr yet? She's the Alpha Sculptori, better known as Professor Tori. She's a senior sorcerer who specializes in mineral manipulation magic. Though she's specifically good at manipulating calcite based minerals, like marble and limestone!(and teeth.)
shes a super old granny who throws rocks at her students sometimes but she's chill ngl.
Also hey I made this
The Contell emblem is meant to resemble Polaris' shield. It everywhere at the academy. In the halls, in the committee room, and even the shield itself is displayed to honor the late sorcerer. He has to be reminded of Polaris every single day, and everywhere he goes in the academy. The only place he can remove it from is where it sits over his heart on his uniform. RIP bro sounds like a skill issue
There's like. One piece of official art where he has the badge on his uniform. except I refuse to believe that piece counts cuz his hair isn't even rainbow in that artwork 😤
hmm arcana twilight inktober day 11: Stars
" Constellations are drawn to a strong sense of longing, and sorcerers pay for their desires by following their code "
SORRY IS THIS WHOLE CONVERSATION NOT SUPER EERIE OR WHAT
...Oh.....
do you ever think that sirius constantly blames polaris for saving him, of all people, for sacrificing his own life for sirius's sake just because he could? doesn't matter how bad, how annoying, how desperate and how clingy sirius was, he still was worth dying for.
and, after rewinding time and basically creating mc, erasing everyone's memories and silently awaiting for mc to be back eventually, because it's not finished yet, the past is still not in the past, do you ever think how truly horrible he feels, for being so egotistical, that he allowed himself to bend time, space and reality itself, for mc to basically exist and deal with the problems and mistakes that polaris made during his life time?
how sirius must hate himself for being so reckless! mc is everything he hates about himself and polaris, but he can't bring himself to truly despise and abandon them, no matter how hard he tries. he physically can't, due to the constellation contracts. he's always jealous, always so full of hatered: towards himself especially.
when in fact, we as mc owe sirius our lives. isn't that... tragically beautiful?
no matter how worthless he thinks that he is, sirius is mc's main reason why they're still alive. he is their life line. he is the one who somehow managed to save them, defying reality and everything else! nothing mattered for him, only mc's life.
it shouldn't be possible, and yet, here we both are, standing face to face. alive. breathing. not well, but we will be eventually, once this whole... debacle is finally over!
sirius doesn't truly want to die. he wants to live. but if it takes his own life for mc to live on, he wouldn't even think twice about sacrificing himself for mc's sake!
can you please for once dream about our lives together and not the end of the world, sirius?..
Sirius fans answer QUICK. what would his go-to drink be??
Ooh that does sound fun tho!! I hope you guys wouldn't mind me ranting about random things while I reread through the game chapters haha
