Aevilux lore drop for the girlies
So happy I could finally share the little lore cairn I built in the corner of this story 3 years ago!
short rest
One thing that drives me a little crazy for the EXU half while also being completely understandable:
Why does the Spider Queen need Opal to ditch her friends to go fight Predathos? Like ma'am, why aren't you taking advantage of "we'll follow you" to get a whole hit squad instead of just a lonely champion?
And yes, this is probably more about the Spider Queen's own trust issues and visions/understanding of power and a belief compassion (for allies/friends) will hold her champion back. But c'mon. Look at the goddamn logistics of five (six with Cyrus) people fighting for you versus one. In what way is having support that can heal and boost and assist your champion bad? Don't you want a champion that has better odds of finishing the mission and living to serve another day? (probably cares less about champion survivability, being a Betrayer who doesn't care about mortals. But good help is hard to find, especially during a crunch)
I'm just sitting here shaking my head at a goddess desperate to get her pawn in on the fight and going about it the completely wrong way.
Oh! I can answer that for ya - itβs the difference in who theyβre fighting for:
Opal alone (and without the tethers of her memory and personality) is fighting to the bitter end for the Spider Queen.
The Crown Keepers together would be fighting for each other, and that means if things got hairy theyβd leave the battle/save each other rather die protecting the gods.
Found family is a liability when youβre demanding unwavering loyalty!

let's go back to a time where everything was okay
hey good news
there's a specifically designated role in the naked mole rat ecology for "guy who runs off into the wilderness and fucks their way into a stranger's house"
Y'all have no idea how absurdly strange naked mole rats are as creatures They're cold-blooded mammals that live in a eusocial structure with a queen and drones, similar to ants, bees, termites and no other mammal on the planet. They barely need to breathe, with a respiration rate low enough to let them thrive in burrows with 2% oxygen, and survive with 0 oxygen whatsoever for about 20 minutes with zero lasting effects.
They live for over 30 years, which is absurdly long for a rodent, don't grow frail with age, and are basically immune to cancer because their telomeres just never shorten.
Naked Mole Rats are rodents that attempted to evolve into bugs, failed, and unlocked the secret to immortality in the process.

They proceeded to get away with it and sweep the competition but then Ash felt bad and decided to give the prize money and title to the second place winners. They quickly ran away with no one knowing who they really were.
Still sad that Sakura never had the chance to beat Sasuke up like an older sister. She deserves to be a little violent as a treat
Sibling fight!! Violence!! What everyone deserves!!
I just feel connected to everybody. Some connections are made with wires. And some are made with blood. And some are made with bone. And some are made with wood. But they all matter. And they, even in this dark, dark cave, they make every day a smiley day.
Alive, alive, alive.
Me and my friends are going are going on a mission that is important and could change a lot of stuff, and I feel like something bad is gonna happen. There's doom on the horizon. But I still think it's right that we're going. (for @overnighttosunflowers)
rest here a while, weary traveller
