Arslan Senki Chapter 129 Thoughts

Arslan Senki Chapter 129 thoughts

In the comments on this post of @tired-reader-writer I already somewhat voiced my general reaction. But I try to write some thoughts down her as well.

Hilmes reactions - my poor baby

The differences in Arslans and Hilmes mentallity and thoughts on their heritage! The back and forth! Wonderfully written!

how Hilmes sees fighting as his only out of his mental missery :(

Narsus, you naughty naughty man lol

but quick to act so nobody interferes!

Saams faces :( my poor poor sad soldier boy!

Make way for the Zots! And Gurazeh! I have never been happier to see you!

heh Narus tactics coming full circle! Suck on that Andycakes!

(but I do not look forward on how he will treat Kishward bc of that...)

ARSLAN MY BOY!!! I feel like a proud mother! (but also like a bad one bc I am playing favourits... sorry Hilmes...)

sad that we didn't get to see the fight between Daryun and Zandeh nor a solution and that the fight betweeen Hilmes and Arslan was really short... but it makes sense due to Hilmes mental state

I will make a seperate post about my AU thoughts for when I get there for writing! (bc I mayheps have found a way to switch from canon to fanon story!)

CHAPTER 3

will be uploaded this or next week. I actually wanted to do it today but not only did my proofreader not go over it yet (which is absolutly fine. I am going at their pace) but tomorrow AO3 will be down for the day for maintenance (for about 10 hours).

Thus it made no sense to me to upload the chapter now as nobody would have access to it for the first day. So the release will be pushed back for after Monday or for the next week.

But chapter art is ready to go as is the chapter.

Bringing this game back because I feel like there's a couple of us who hasn't done this. Here are some of our previous attempts on this:

@innerchorus : here (actually I think they answered it twice, I couldn't track down the more recent one, oops?)

@concernedbrownbread : here

Mine: here!

There has to be more out there, no there definitely is more out there, but alas tumblr's search system is a piece of shit and this was all I could find unfortunately T_T

The first character I first fell in love with:

The character I never expected to love as much as I do now:

The character everyone else loves that I don't:

The character I love that everyone else hates:

The character I used to love but don't any longer:

The character I'd want to be like:

The character I'd slap:

A pairing that I love: A pairing that I despise:

A lot of answers I imagine would remain unchanged for me, so I won't do a full attempt here— just the third question (it's what spurred me to make this post lol)— I was thinking about some random stuff and then realized, oh, I don't actually give a shit about this character?????

So here goes question #3:

The character everyone else loves that I don't: GUISCARD, LOL. I gave so little of a shit about him that I forgot to mention him the first time around. Like, I'm so sorry my dude, you just. You just don't compel me for some fucking reason.

Chapter 3 has been posted!

Here it is! Chapter 3 ! On the cover this time is Sir Pavle!

Enjoy reading!

Pardon me Lord Narsus, but I just /have/ to ask: do you get bad bed head?

“Civilizations crumble, The lives of Kings and Men are fleeting. I know in my heart, it’s only art that will live eternally,“ 

Don’t worry everyone, It’ll be alright. 

{{Spoilers for the novels - The news from the new novel is pretty shocking. Not completely unexpected but so sad nonetheless. I wish it didn’t have to end that way, Poor Alfreed, Poor Narsus. ;;; w ;;; Arslan comparing Narsus as one of his ‘wings’ was just too much}}
