This particular chapter reminded me of a much much earlier chapter where when Ailette attempts to read a fictional book but she couldn't quite understand, she immediately switched over to a religious bible, claim that fictional works often reference biblical stories so in order to have that impact, one must be well versed in biblical knowledge to be able to properly enjoy it.
I can't help but wonder how many people missed out on the Noah's ark reference in this chapter simply because they weren't borned/raised Christan. Though I myself am not one, I had the opportunity to, and I believe this is the same for many others
Goshhh Father Angelo is such a fins shyttt. I really hope we get to see more of him but unfortunately it seems like he's just a minor character...
I need spoilers on the "true first timeline" I've been searching for morsels of spoilers to feed myself my there's still too much holes in what I know of,
So in this case, timeline goes like this: original timeline, Ines and Carcel died, one due to illness and the other on the battlefield, now my question is: If this is the original timeline, how come Ines isn't wed to Oscar? It was mentioned in the Crown princess and Poverty timeline that Oscar will be first choice unless external forces allow her to steer a different direction. So I needed to know, other than the memories and the cunning plans Ines has, does the other characters remain the same? Is Oscar obsessive over her in the true first timeline? How about Ines's brother? He seems to be nowhere on her deathbed.
Onto the 2nd timeline (Crown Princess) why was Ines made to forget everything from the first timeline but not subsequent timelines? And why did people say it was her own choice to be wed to Oscar? It didn't seem like she had much of an actual choice because though Empress didn't like Ines, the first choice was always to wed her to Oscar unless there was a reason not to.
Extra: What about Oscar's brother? It's mentioned that Ines in this timeline knew who he is and planned to use him strategically but I've not seen him being mentioned anywhere on the 2nd or 3rd timeline. Not only that, but since he's and illegitimate heir, why was he even given the chance to compete with Oscar for the crown? Other than Oscar's obsession with Ines in the current timeline, there's no mention of him being an unfit ruler so I find it hard to believe they would disinherited the legitimate heir this easily, especially allowing a illegitimate heir to take his position as King.
From what I remembered, the first few chapters starts out with a gorgeous ancient eastern painting/embroidery art style, and it tells the story of an king/emperor who loves chaos. To help fix this, the ministers invited over a monk who has eyes so pure that looking into his eyes you could almost asscent to nirvana, the evil king decided that he wanted to corrupt the monk's eye and this subjected the monk to all sorts of torture (killing childrens and forcing the monk to watch/burning down the temple) but no matter what, the monk's eye still stay pure until he draws his last breath by the evil king's sword. Another part tells the story of the woman who managed to laid with the king and survive. As the king, he has responsibility pass down his lineage. However every concubine/woman who sleeps with the king always dies. The king enjoys seeing the horrors and terror of their faces when he climaxs, so nobody ever survived a night with the king, until a clever woman who had an idea on how she could survive. She commissioned an artist to draw the "embodiment of hell, pain and suffering" and then discreetly have the artist killed. Then she have a tattoo artist tattoo the artwork on her back, and after that, had him killed as well. On the night of the visit, the woman requested for the king to remove her robe before stabbing her during their intercourse, the king, doesn't think much of it, agrees. When the king was reaching close to climax, he unrobes her and prepares to stab her from her back but when he saw the work tattooed on her back, he immediately came and thus, she was the only woman to ever survived the night with him and became the empress.
This is as far as I could remember, please do let me know if anyone knows anything about this!
Been thinking about this one bl I read some time ago and it goes like this, uke is being blackmail by seme because he found a video with uke being fucked with his full face revealed, seme taunted uke that he wanted to be found because uke didn't request for his face to be censored which they usually do for AVs, in the end uke made peace with himself and told himself that he secretly wanted to be exposed hence why he didn't censor his face
Also this whole thing happened in a restaurant btw, they were fucking in the restaurant and was at the risked of getting caught multiple times
I can't really remember much details other than that and I'm not even sure if it's a one-shot or not.... Would greatly appreciate any infos!!
Okay so basically, Dio killed Jojo out of love and then sew his own head with Jojo's body "uniting" the two of them as one in a twisted sense. Overall it's a lil bit fucked up but idk I still find it kinda hot
