“traveler breaks the news to childe”, inspired by @murolo :)
from this post:
[image description:
aether and paimon are speaking to childe in the streets of liyue.
childe raises his hand to his chin thoughtfully, smugly smiling, saying, “la signora was a girlboss who was murdered, but she was murdered by the raiden shogun, who is also a girlboss, so it was still a win for feminism.”
aether makes a “what is wrong with you” face at childe, while paimon stares at childe, indignant and aghast. aether flatly begins signing. paimon crosses her arms and translates, “traveler says you would also benefit from being hit by lightning.”
childe purses his lips and replies, “i can tell this was said by someone with toxic masculinity. not answering it.”
the comic was inspired by an anonymous ask that reads: “princess diana was a girlboss who was murdered. but she was murdered by queen elizabeth, who was also a girlboss. so it was still a win for feminism” are you ok
reallyreallyreallytrying answered: i can tell this was sent by someone with toxic masculinity. not answering it.
The Archon Quest Made Me Lose My Mind (2.6 Archon Quest Spoilers…)!
Poor Dainsleif! Poor Halfdan! Poor Black Serpent Knights! Poor Hilichurls! This quest did its absolute best to destroy my soul. When I tell you that there were tears in my eyes at Halfdan’s sacrifice, I am not lying to you.
What is with Hoyoverse giving characters back their friends only to rip them away again in one way or another?! Why couldn’t they let Dain at least have a friend to come back and visit?!! The more I learn about Dain, the more I just want him to be happy. 500 years of the worst physical pain anyone can go through, dedicating his life to stopping the Abyss Order, the only slight relief he ever felt was being in that upside-down city… It’s enough for me to wish we could just invite him to our Serenitea Pot and give him a new home.
He can even decorate it to look like Khaenri'ah! I don’t care!
I’m also unsure if the Hilichurls are immortal or if they can actually be killed. Do they just go back to the Abyss once they’re “killed” and just climb their way back out or what?
It’s not that Halfdan didn’t know the destruction of Khaenri'ah (dude managed to mantain a considerable ammount of conscience for 500 years afterall), what he means is, Dainsleif, their captain, the one that holds all their morals and beliefs, is still there, fighting.
There’s no need to bring back the homeland, because Khaenri'ah was never truly lost, not when we still have those who share the memories.
