It's Been 93yrs Since I Even Glanced At Donten, But I Recently Saw The Animated Gaiden Chapters, And

It's been 93yrs since I even glanced at Donten, but I recently saw the animated Gaiden chapters, and as those credit images rolled by, one of my major thoughts was,

Well, time to imagine it's an omegaverse: Baby Kumo was borne by o!Tenka, and a!Kiiko's holdin' the baby so he can rest for, like, an hour.

Not that surprising since that's my MO in these kinds of situations, but it's also my MO to share these thoughts; so, here they are.

Jeanne, as an alpha: If my love for Vanitas keeps growing, and we see each other when I'm like this, the moment our eyes meet, I'm afraid I may push him down and make him bear our children! ❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥

If JZX is resurrected…

After he’s brought up to speed, he explains his side of the story and expresses suspicion about the whole situation. JYL doesn’t care, ofc, bc he was still murdered. Why should any circumstances mean she has to forgive him?

He won’t refute her about her right to deny WWX forgiveness, but this quiet vitriol she spills is startling. He is equally disgusted when she says that WWX owed it to everyone to resurrect JZX at the cost of his own. There’s no need to be grateful.

JZX then tells her that she has revealed her true self, that she’s as wretched as he thought she was years before. He stalks away without listening to her pleas to stop.

Just saw some MDZS fan art on Twitter about JYL not being able to forgive WWX for killing JZX and it killed me, seeing those expressions so here’s what WWX does next: he uses a modified Sacrifice summon right then and there in front of JYL and brings her husband back. This modified version basically sacrifices his own life to revive JZX who wakes up right there in his own coffin, confused as hell.

Oh my god I saw that on my twitter a few days ago and it’s just gorgeous! The artist did an incredible job capturing WWXs guilt and desperation to be forgiven and JYLs coldness and contempt and almost indifference to him. It gave me flashbacks to the JYL kills WWX au.

Raiden Muu often asked himself,

What use is there in a God of Eternity when eternity doesn't exist?

His path between his ascension as Electro Archon to the present day has been fraught with losses. One by one, he had less companions walking by side until only one remained: Kazuha, Patron Deity of Higi Village, the Raiden Shogun's Divine Emissary.

As the sole survivors of a distant time, Muu fretted over the minor god's mortality. Kazuha was undoubtedly strong, having survived the Archon War and millennia thereafter, but he wasn't invincible. Muu would be delusional to entertain such a notion, having experienced what he had. Then, the Cataclysm knocked on Inazuma's doorstep.

While the Raiden Shogun fought in Khaenri'ah on Celestia's behalf, his Divine Emissary contended with a darkness that threatened Land of Eternity. Both emerged victorious from their campaigns, but Kazuha was tainted by the filth the darkness brought. He deteriorated day-by-day before his archon's very eyes. He would vanish and leave nothing behind except a husk.

In the centuries that followed, his desperation mounting, Muu sought every method that would save Kazuha.

Everything failed.

Ultimately, the archon watched in abject horror as his beloved warped and contorted into something eldritch: an arborescent wretch with barely a humanoid shape. Only its cadaverous face, empty eyes, and dingy mane of once-shining hair reminded him of Kazuha, and the looming shadow of his death threatened to drive him insane. (Perhaps he already was after Kazuha lost the last of his wits and never spoke another word again.)

Just when he finally resolved to grant him the mercy of death, the Fatui harbinger, Dottore, appeared to him before the throne. With a wide grin, the Doctor offered him a solution to his dilemma as long as he turned a blind eye to their activities. Muu accepted his terms.

That was how he became part their project in Sumeru, helping them revitalize Kazuha as a new god.

100% agree on Vani being a catalyst. My own HC's for him are:

he's a physician from Fontaine

he wields a cryo vision

he hurls icicles like knives

he scales with HP

his skill increases his cryo DMG & converts DMG to himself into healing for his party members for a set duration based on his max HP

his burst massively heals the party and increases everyone's skill & burst DMG based on his max HP

his signature weapon is of course the Book of Vanitas but is replaced by Frostbearer when he's an event trial character

his utility passive is the same as Barbara's

his 1st ascension passive gives your own party a 15% healing bonus that doesn't stack with similar passive bonuses

his specialty dish is tarte Tatin

his constellation is related to the moon

his b-day letter is an invitation for dinner "but only because Noé insists" and contains a slew of restorative foods.

I was not to sure were to put Roland

Been a long while since I thought about MDZS, and after reading a couple Royalty AU's, I began wondering about one in which the central characters are the Juniors. An omega WWX is enjoying retirement as Empress Dowager Zhehuang alongside his alpha, the Emperor Emeritus, previously the Hanguang Emperor. First Prince SZ was named Crown Prince despite being an omega and ascended as the dynasty's reigning empress. Before his coronation, he was already married to the only alpha son of the noble Jin clan, Prince Consort JL, and after him, OYZZ entered the household. LJY is Jiang Jingyi, heir to alpha JC and omega LXC. (I know: a ~real~ switcheroo.) As for a plot, there really isn't one; I can only imagine that a child of JZXun or any other uppity noble attempts to stir up trouble within the royal family.
