Devil May Cry Kat - Tumblr Posts

I like the way you think friend 🤝

and I raise you, Kat's scene phase:

pls i love the idea of retired scene queen Kat 😭💖 Dante finds her old myspace one day and is like "oh, that's you"

She still does the racoon eyeliner tho but her hair is too damaged to dye or straighten anymore 😭

my h/c for kat when she was edgy and small🥺

Thoughts on Kat x Dante and Kat x Vergil

I'm suffering through major writers block recently so to try and push myself out of this I'm going to write down my thoughts and hope that they are semi-coherent.💀

I adore a good love triangle.

I see Kat/Vergil and Kat/Dante as two different ship dynamics

Kat/Vergil - right person, wrong time

Kat/Dante - soulmates (whether platonic or romantic)

I am more preferential to Kat/Dante only because we see him actually begin to care for her more than Vergil seems to over the course of the game (if you've seen my blog you know the amount of Kante propaganda I post💀)

The events of the game:

In the beginning of the game, straight off the bat, it's clear Vergil and Kat are very close or "tight" as Dante so eloquently observes😂 Kat and Vergil work as a team. Kat is indebted to Vergil because he helped her out of a tough childhood. Vergil is indebted to Kat because she acts as his right hand. Although, there aren't many scenes in the game where Kat and Vergil are in the same room (much less, hold a conversation together) but we can still assume they're a team and generally like each other. Kat's closer to Vergil than any other member of The Order. Nice, okay...

But then, through the events of the game Kat and Dante have more scenes together. They talk, they trauma bond, and even though at the beginning Dante was weary of trusting Vergil or Kat, he seems to slowly come out of his shell with Kat and trusts them both because of it.

But the siege of The Order's headquarters is really when we get to fully see the "flip":

up until this point, Vergil seemed closer to Kat than Dante was (and perhaps Kat liked Vergil more as well) but the scales have slowly been tipping, increments of weight being adding in Dante's favor.

And then Vergil leaves Kat in the server room😭

the thing most striking to me about this scene imo is that Kat just seems to accept her fate. She accepts that there's no way out for her and accepts her martyrdom for Vergil's cause because Vergil had so easily accepted it too... but Dante doesn't.

He stays with her. He tells her what to do and how to appear the least threatening to the feds. He assures her that he will be back for her even if no one else is.

He shows her a kindness, a thoughtfulness and it humanizes him in this scene.

Dante has to argue with Vergil to go back and save Kat. Dante changes their whole plan because he doesn't want to let this one human girl die. A far cry from the beginning of the game where he brushed them off and said he "preferred to work alone"...

After all this, even after Vergil reveals his plan to rule over the humans, Vergil still seems surprised (or regretful?) that Kat doesn't back him up, but now Kat knows that she can't support him anymore. Vergil is too far gone, too different from the man who saved her from her foster father.

I also just realized that we can see this somewhat mirrored in the framing of the cutscenes:

In most of her scenes with Vergil, Kat is pushed to the back. She's out of focus and otherwise not the main draw of the scene. In fact, it's very easy to overlook her in the shadows.

Whereas in most of her scenes with Dante, Kat takes up as much space on the screen as he does. She's harder to overlook now paired with that fact that she actually has lines in her scenes with Dante. (although this may just be confirmation bias given she has so many more scenes with Dante💀 I think it's a nice parallel)

Closing thoughts, I like both pairings although I feel that the game devs planed for Dante to be endgame. I still like the idea of a love triangle between the three; Dante and Kat close after Vergil's betrayal, Vergil and Kat as old friends turned sour (past crushes? the one who got away possibly?), and Dante and Vergil being brothers but also vying for Kat's attention (blood is thicker than water).

Anyways thanks for reading (or skimming) take this as a treat:

inspired by @fabdante 's au of Kat and Vergil ruling Hell

Nelo Angelo (?) Vergil and a long-haired Kat😂 if Kat didn't go with Dante and instead chose to stick by Vergil

Kat is the most influential/best female character in all of devil may cry change my mind...

Kat is an important member of the Order in DmC: Devil May Cry, and serves as Dante’s guide for much of the game. Although human, Kat is a medium; a psychic able to see into Limbo as well as project her astral form into that side-dimension, and is also familiar with several Wiccan spells, making her a practicing witch.

Vergil groveling at Kat's feet where he belongs (based on that one adoration sculpture and again inspired by @fabdante 's au)

I found these photos just on Google 😂 I've never seen them before so I decided I should share them. <3

DmC 2 designs for the main 3

i've made so many of these designs lol but i really love this game and i need a way to fill the empty space in my soul that the lack of a sequel has left 😭

Dante- I gave him a red jacket but made it cropped to better differentiate him from og dante and to give him a different silhouette. I wanted his outfit to look more diy and gritty, fitting in with the state of Limbo city at this point.

Kat- I wanted to keep the basic vibe of her original design so i kept a hood and put a vine motif going up the sleeves to mimic her henna in-game. I gave her longer, baggier pants with pockets to hold ingredients for spells.

Vergil- His outfit hasn't changed much because he's been in Hell for the time being. His jacket looks more tattered and worn and he himself looks sickly given the wound to his heart. I gave him more practical boots and referenced this unused DMC5 vergil concept.
