I don’t really have a comment I just think MC’s focus on tomorrow inadvertently planting a seed of hope in Liam is. Really sweet actually

“Isn’t it great that you were able to help your beloved Jude?”

Masterlists

A reminder to be more careful 😇

Big fan of everyone showing off their curse abilities in Harrison's route except Jude, choosing to cut someone's fecking hand off.

Man wakes up and washes down his violence with a glass of sarcasm 😭😭😭

I feel like Jude and I would either be besties or try to kill each other ever time we’re in the same room together-

No in between, either-

꧁Crown as Quotes From Our Friend Group꧂

It would have been a crime not to pair Tanaka's quote with Alfons. (Alfons teeth meme) –Edi

He's soo fine

A little bit of history: Jude and Ellis met 7 years before they joined Crown. They also met Roger prior to joining (I believe we already knew this and Roger said that he was the one who recommended them to Victor)

The story from the collection bonus will be about their first meeting and their relationship before joining Crown

The story that comes with the ECB card will be about their first joint mission in Crown

And then the story from ranking for each of them individually will be from their POV and take place in the modern day, after they met Kate

normal about him completely.

short conversation from near the end of ellis's blind love route, from Ellis's POV

9-to-5

Kagari: Good job, princess. Your sword technique's improving in leaps and bounds. You might even last two seconds now.

Emma: (punches the air in victory)

Kagari: But you'll definitely last three if you do this next drill.

Kagari: (slams down a thick tower of important paperwork)

Kagari: Shred these.

Emma: Uh...

Kagari: Don't worry, I've got your back. No court official is going to get past the Yasha of Kogyoku.

Kagari:

Kagari: ...I didn't expect you to send all the papers flying with just one swing.

Kagari: (hugs Emma from behind) Here. Paper Shredder Stance goes like this...

Emma: (trying to keep calm) Paper Shredder Sta... Oh. 'PSS.'

Kagari: (ears perk up)

Emma: Huh?

Emma: PSS...PSS... ...PSS?

Kagari: I'm already here, princess. I can't physically get any closer without being directly inside you.

✩

Kagari: (alone in his office later with a new tower of paperwork)

Kagari: (paws everything off the desk) Oops.

a/n: inspired by the endless paperwork line on his 4-star

A date with Death CG textposts~

Cat in a Tree

Emma: (riding piggyback on Kagari) Oh no! Look! There's a cat stuck in that tree.

Kagari: Oh, that? Don't worry about it. He sleeps there all the time.

Emma: In complete distress? With his tail all fuzzed out?

Kagari: I've seen him sleep like that too. Sleeping in Kogyoku means sleeping in fear.

Emma: Is that a joke?

Kagari: 25% yeah. Climb on my shoulders, princess.

Emma: Wait why?

Kagari: I figured you wanted to save the little guy, but we can leave him to die, too. He probably doesn't have any family left.

Emma:

Kagari: I'm kidding, obviously. About the first part. I'd climb up there myself, but the little guy bit me the last time I went to pet him.

Emma: But cats love you.

Kagari: This one is trying to assert his dominance over me. Anyway, he might respond differently to you.

Emma: I suppose I could try. But I don't want to hurt your shoulders.

Kagari:

Kagari: Maybe I'd like that though.

Emma: Okay! Got him!

Emma: Kagari?

Lovers' Spat

Azel: Since I'm sleeping on the couch tonight—

Azel: And also the couch you've put out for me in our dreams

Azel: —Can I still at least use the microwave?

Emma: (rolls eyes) Yes. Obviously.

Azel: And I still have access to the pantry, right?

Emma: Yes, Azel. You may still use the pantry. That hasn't changed.

Azel: Fridge. Spice-rack. I don't like bland food.

Emma: Fridge. Stove. Oven. Blender. Toaster. Air-fryer. KitchenAid® stand mixer. I'm not trying to kill you.

Azel: I might die if I don't get to hold you.

Emma: What was that?

Azel: Hm? Did I say something?

edit: turns out Azel *does* like bland food🙃rather, food that's easy/simple to eat. perhaps a pre-packaged ramen kinda guy

Divine Protection Package

Azel: (polite voice) It's almost here.

Emma: (still recovering from hauling stuff to the temple all morning) What...?

Azel: (benevolent smile) A terrible affliction of the body will come to grip you in less than two days' time.

Emma: What?

Azel: Indeed. And while not life-threatening, usually, your experience will only be that of pain and suffering.

Emma: What? What is it?

Azel: Something so unspeakable that it makes even God break out in a cold sweat. But fret not, for I've outlined a—

Emma: —a payment plan.

Azel: (frowns for a second) Yes, a payment plan. (pulls the document out from nowhere) As usual, you have several tiers to choose from based on your financial ability.

Emma: (looks through) As usual, I can just barely afford the cheapest tier. What's in these packages? What exactly am I paying for?

Azel: God's Divine Protection, obviously. You are always free to decline and endure the cataclysm alone though.

Emma: I don't think I want to risk it. Your 0% failure rate freaks me out more than anything.

Azel: So it goes. Please fill out this form here, and please stay as far away from me and the temple for the next five to eight days.

✩

Emma: (moaning in bed two days later) Oh god, it's... it's happening... it's... it's...

Emma: Wait a minute. This is just my period.

Emma: (opens up the Divine Protection Package) Aw, Azel...

Azel's Note: (after taking five attempts to decipher the handwriting) I figured you'd go for the cheapest tier, so I tossed in some extra stuff from the higher ones. Only SOME stuff, okay? Don't go thinking I put everything I had into this one box. I'm already operating at a loss here. Anyway, I meant it. Stay the hell away from me until you're done. If you need me for anything, just get some sleep. Get some sleep anyway. But I'll come meet you in your dreams.
