Heroric BSOD

(Velvet see’s her own dead body after killing the beast, she’s taken a back. She screams in anguish.) Eleanor: (Shocked)I-Is that..? Velvet: (Shocked) I… I’m dead… I’m dead…. Laphicet: (Angrily) Calm down, Velvet! This farce is just another of Innominat’s illusions! (Innominat fades in.) Innominat: “Farce?” How callous. That “farce” is the true face of my sister. (Velvet Gasps. Flashbacks of events in the story) Innominat: She hates, resents, devours, and kills. Innominat: She tramples people, cities, everything, living only by her emotions… Innominat: What an ugly, tainted soul. Laphicet: (Angrily) Its not like that! Innominat: Nothing you say will matter. She knows. She knows if its the truth. Velvet: … He’s right. (Velvet Kneels down on the floor) Velvet:. (Realization) Just think. Everything I did was baseless, arrogant… And even so, I still…. Innominat: You hurt so many innocent people, didn’t you? Velvet: More than I can count… I devoured and killed so many… Innominat: Without even knowing Arthurs true aims…. Velvet: I destroyed people… I destroyed whole towns…. Innominat: And worse yet, you didn’t even show mercy to your own sister’s reincarnation. Velvet: (Voice Breaking) I… ate her… Innominat: And despite all of that, I still love you, Velvet. Thats why I chose to become a sacrifice. For you, sister. Innominat: But think, if you try to stop the resurrection, wouldnt my death be all for nothing? Innominat: To tell you the truth, I was terrified of dying. It was so dark… Velvet: (Crying) I’m sorry… I-I’m so sorry… Innominat: You’ll accept it, then? That everything you’ve done up until this point, all of it… Velvet: (Crying) Yes. It was all for nothing, for no one. Velvet: (Crying) I hurt so many people, all for no reason. I’m a monster. Innominat: If you’ve accepted it, you have to atone for your sins. Innominat: Once I eat the final two malevolences inside you, I’ll fully awaken. Give them to me. Give me your hatred, your despair. Innominat: If you do, I can cleanse this world of all its pain. Innominat: I had hoped… that you could live in a world without pain and sadness. Innominat: But You’re a monster now. You Don’t belong there.

Laphicet: (Shouting) Velvet! (Laphicet Rushes to grab Velvet by her hand, Eleanor and Rokurou are pushed backwards, Eizen see the Fake Velvet’s body being eaten up by a mouth coming from the arte.) Velvet: Let me go… I have to go…. Laphicet: (Refusing) No…! Velvet: If you Don’t… You’ll die too for no reason. Laphicet: No! Velvet: (Voice Breaking) A twisted monster like me doesn’t deserve to live…(Sobbing) Don’t you understand? Laphicet: Grrgh! Innominat: You’re the reincarnation of the first sacrifice. Part of me Don’t worry. Ill devour you too. Eizen: Laphicet, tell this self-absorbed idiot what she needs to hear! (Eizen hold Laphicet by his leg and chaining himself to the ground using artes.) Velvet: Please, let me go….

Laphicet: (Shouting) Will you STOP WHINING?! Velvet: Hu–?! (True Will plays in the Background) Laphicet: No, I Don’t “understand”! Laphicet: You snap at people! You’re scary! You–You tried to eat me! Laphicet: But… You’re also kind… And You’re filled with life! Laphicet: I Don’t understand a single thing about you! Laphicet: But you gave me a name, when I was a number! Laphicet: You gave me that compass! You taught me what it meant to be alive! Laphicet: Thats why I care about you, Velvet! Ill protect you for my own sake! Velvet: Phi…. Laphicet: I Don’t care if You’re malevolent! Or if it was pointless! Laphicet: (Screaming) If the world says its a mistake to love you, Ill fight the whole world! I Don’t care HOW much pain you feel! Laphicet: It doesn’t matter! A world without you, Velvet… (Velvet Demon Arm Starts Eating Laphicet in Instinct) Laphicet: Gggnngh… is the one thing I couldn’t bear! Velvet: Let me go… My hand will….

A flame I cannot quench, no matter how hard I try. Just like you, Velvet. Velvet: … I finally understand how you felt. Velvet: But the only one I can fight for… is myself. Seres: (Smiling) Thats good enough. Thats proof that you are truly alive. (Velvet Reaches out to Seres with her Demon Arm. Seres Vanishes into a burning flame,The Earthen Historia Disappears in a flash. Reaching towards her heart, she pledges. Turns around towards the closing earthpulse. She Forces the Earthpulse to open again. Causing a trail of fire shooting out from the earthpulse to blow away Innominat. It Reopens.)

Alvin

His character development is very well done. I think it’s underappreciated. Between how lost and alone he becomes, losing all friends and his mother to realizing Hes more than a mercenary and realizing he made new friends. Elize was the one to help him realize. Hes a good person at heart. The innocence of Elize and her friendship is what pushed Alvin to make a change for the better.

And for a moment. Alvin’s thoughts of self harm ceased when Elize offered to be a true friend.

Alvin and Elize (what really happened the swingset night) depression/suicidal thoughts warning.

The wind blew slightly, gentle with the creek of the rusty swingset quietly sounding off. Alvin sat in a swing slowly moving back and forth lost in his thoughts. Eventually his mind couldn’t keep quiet as he began to speak to himself. “Mom… I wish you were still here to help. For so long I took care or you but if you saw what I’ve done to do so you wouldn’t be too proud. Why damnit? Why couldn’t I have done a better job? Why did you have to go before you could tell me I’m not a monster.” Alvin scoffed to himself as his voice was the only one trailing off in that moment.

Alvin’s words came out more angry “Son of a bitch I’m tired of living like this! I’m tired of lieing. I lie to Jude. Milla. Everybody! And I keep lieing to myself. I’m not as happy as I seem. In fact I’m more lost than ever. I’m a double edge sword cutting myself in the process and no one can see that.” Alvin was growing more frustrated with himself as each word left his mouth. Before he knew it he was holding his gun in his hands. He stared at it seemingly lost in a trance and everything in that moment from his thoughts to his contemplation was a stark reminder of where he was at in his life. He was awakening, creeping closer to the abyss which would lead to his timely end.

“Tch. So this is it. Damn it. I couldn’t sincerely help anyone. I haven’t had anyone since you left mom. The chimeriad never cared. Exodus. Nobody ever really cared. Had they actually gave a damn maybe I could’ve asked for help. Maybe I wouldn’t be in this mess.” At this moment in time Elize was sitting behind Alvin a few feet away listening, trying to understand him. It was the first time anyone was truly trying to understand him but she stayed still and quiet while Alvin was too trapped in his thoughts to notice.

“No one gives a damn about me. I don’t even know why I’m still here. Things would be better for everyone if I was gone. Jude. Milla. Leia… I’m so sorry Leia.” Alvin, frustrated gave out a quiet shout when Leia crossed his mind. “Augh!! I almost killed you. It should’ve been me behind that bullet. What the hell was I thinking. I’m a despicable person. Everyone only tolerates me but no one really cares about me. I did this to myself, though. I’m the only one to blame and I just wish you could see I’m so sorry, Leia. I regret that day. Ah damn it. What the hell is going on up there?” Alvin said as he tapped the barrel of his gun to his head. Elize was beginning to get scared but she stayed quiet. She was ready to interrupt if she needed to. In that moment she felt hopeless because she knew he was in too deep to change his mind. She needed to find that moment where his thoughts subsided.

“Why do I even give a shit anyways” Alvin’s gun was becoming more tantalising to him. “It’s not like anyone would care if I was gone. They would wake up and just see me and think ‘it was only a matter of time before he betrayed us and left anyways.’ I’ve done nothing but betray people and their trust. What’s the point if I don’t even have anything to show for it. I have nothing. I’ve been stuck on this place for too damn long and my personality has rotted and I’ve lost all hope. I’m not who I used to be. I don’t know if I ever will be again.” Alvin tilted his head back to feel the breeze run through his hair and caress his cheeks.

“This is it, huh. What better than a night like this. I’m sorry Leia, Jude, Milla, Elize, and Rowen. I know I’ll jusy become a distant memory to you and eventually you’ll forget me. I’m not a good person so the sooner you forget the better. I’m through the the lies. And I’d be lieing to myself if I said I can keep going like this. I cant…” Alvin finally began to breakdown with tears streaming from his tired eyes as he bowed his head down.

“I don’t have any friends. I don’t have my mom. I have nothing. NOTHING! heh… I guess life isn’t worth living when everyone you ever knew is gone or doesn’t give a damn about you.” Alvin lifted the gun to his head while the tears slowly stopped flowing. He knew it was time and this was the end. “Goodbye everyone. Don’t miss me too much. Tch” Alvins finger was on the trigger as he cocked the gun back and began squeezing. Finally the time had come. More more millimeter to squeeze and “ALVIN!!!” Elize cried out. BANG!!!! Elize, followed by teepo, tripping over her own feet ran as fast as she could with her eyes closed and embraced Alvin hardee than she has ever embraced anything. “Please don’t go Alvin.”

Alvin opened his eyes wide… Elize’s shouting had caused him to turn his head and have the bullet just graze his cheek. His eyes were wide open and silently he spoke. “Elize…” “You can’t go Alvin!” “Yeah you big dummy. Elize cares about you! What the hell do you mean no one cares?” Teepo said. “Elize, I…” “SHUT UP, ALVIN,” Elize said failing to control her emotions and fear. “I don’t want you to go, Alvin. I understand now.” “You’re just depressed and lonely and all” Teepo again speaking out Elize’s thoughts. Alvin still a little perplexed “Why do you even give a damn? I betrayed you remember?” “Yeah but that doesn’t mean we can’t forgive you. That doesn’t mean I don’t care, Alvin.” “Elize likes you Alvin. You’ve grown on her, yup. She would be heartbroken to see you go buddy and so would I.” Teepo explained.

Alvin still holding the gun in his hand put it away. With his hands free he wrapped them around Elize realizing he had never been held that way before in his adult years. He felt the love in Elize’s embrace and he began crying alongside Elize. “I’m so sorry Elize. I didn’t know. I have given up all hope. I didn’t think anyone would car-” “I said shut up!” Elize interrupted pulling back away from Alvin, now looking him in the eyes with tears still rolling down. “I care Alvin. And I’m your friend.” “Friend?…” “Yes friend. Alvin I know Jude and Milla would miss you too. You matter to us.” “Yeah you can’t just go around ending your life when people are still here for you, idiot” Teepo once again saying the things on Elize’s mind that’s harder for her to put into words herself.

“Alvin… I would be really sad to see you go. I don’t want you to die. I need you to protect me. I need you by my side at all times. Don’t go talking like that again because I’m your friend” Elize followed up her statement by kissing Alvin on the cheek the bullet passed. He immedietely put his palm to his face realizing the sting from the bullet didn’t matter anymore and a kiss from Elize was better than the bullet he sought to end his life with. He very faintly smiled. “Tch, I guees you do care, huh squirt.” “ don’t call Elize that you dummy! She’s not a squirt. She’s your friend!” Teepo said. “And I’ll always be your friend” Elize said as she extended her arm out with an open hand hoping for Alvin to grab it. Alvin grabbed Elize’s hand and she sat on the swing next to him. The squeeking of the swingset began to have a rhythm as they lightly swang side by side not letting each other go. Alvin honestly never wanted to let her hand go in that moment.

He realized he had been a fool. He silently made a promise to himself in his mind. 'I’m going to make amends to everyone. Maybe I can make things right. Maybe everyone here can be my friend… Maybe I can be happy for once and learn that things aren’t as bad and all hope isn’t lost.’ While he was speaking to himself in his mind, Elize broke the silence between them. “Alvin. I’m your friend. I’ll always be here for you if you feel like that again. You can talk to me. Promise me you won’t leave me. Promise to be my friend forever, okay?” Alvin felt a tear fall down his face but this time the emotion was relief and happiness. “I promise I won’t leave you. Thank you Elize… Friend.”

Elize had quelled Alvin’s depression and although not much more was said but some small talk… Nothing needed to be said. Alvin finally felt at home and in a place where he belonged and it was beside Elize. She may be a small friend… But she taught Alvin just how valuable life was that night. They swang until the sun rose and Alvin’s hope and new identity of being a good, honest man rose with it. Elize had saved his life and he will never forget that and protect her as long as they lived. She was his first, real friend after all.

Bonus:

“Hey guys. You’re up early. Whatcha doing out here?” Jude said walking up to Alvin and Elize.

“Jude my main man, we were just watching the sunrise!” Alvin said with a smile on his face and putting his arm around Jude’s shoulder.

“Are you… Okay? You’re acting peculiar.” Jude said in confusion at Alvin who seemed to be a different person.

“Never better. jude. Hey… I know you may not forgive me now but I hope you can in the future. No more games. No more lies from me. I want to be your friend. Elize giggled in the background and Alvin saying this and she seemed to be so happy.

Noticing Elize Jude spoke, "yeah… Okay. I can forgive you Alvin. It may take some time but I see us becoming good friends.”

Alvin smiled, knowing that one day he would be forgiven and he can make amends. He finally knew exactly where he needed to be and it was with this group. “Let’s get the others shall we?”

——-

I wanted to dive deeper into Alvin’s depression. I felt as though Bamco was top subtle with it and I imagine the swingset scene going more like this. I knows it’s a little dark but I absolutely loved writing this because I think it’s a new take on Alvin’s depression and shows just how bad depression can get. I hope you enjoyed it.

0 Squad finds out about Furuta's Quinx surgery and dastardly plots before Arima dies (also Hairu lived through the Rose Arc obvs) and confront him.

Fruit-chan, he’s such a dastard.

Yusa doesn’t know if anyone will believe him. He’s not sure he believes himself.

“What’s wrong?” Shio grins.

Yusa motions Rikai and Shio closer to whisper in their ears. “I saw Investigator Furuta with one kakugan.”

“Are you sure?” Rikai asks sharply.

Yusa nods.

“Well.” Shio rubs his hands together. “There’s only one thing left to do.”

“Tell Arima-san?” Yusa is intimidated by his relative.

“No.” Shio sounds scandalized. “Break into his office. Steal his phone. We’ll do the investigation.”

Yusa and RIkai know that when Shio wants to be brave, there’s little they can do but follow.

——————————————————————————-

“Fruit-chan!” Yusa and Shio tackle the investigator in a hug.

“Huh?” Furuta sounds oddly frightened. His phone has spilled out of his pocket.

“We’re going around hugging people today,” Shio says proudly. “To show our older relatives some love.”

Furuta smiles, but he looks dead inside. He was always a loner in the garden, pining for Rize and refusing to cheer on the family.

Rikai, meanwhile, attaches a wire to his phone as Shio babbles on about an unimportant memory. After a minute, during which Furuta’s smile grows markedly more strained, Rikai yanks the wire free and nods.

“Well, gotta go hug Hsaio!” Shio jumps back.

“She’s much scarier than you,” Yusa can’t resist adding.

But what they find on his phone makes him regret those words.

——————————————————————————-

Furuta strolls back into his office, whistling and pretending Eto doesn’t exist because he’s killed her. Yes. That’s it.

“Hi there.” Hirako lounges in his chair, boots planted on his desk.

“Pardon?”

The door swings shut behind him. Arima, flanked by Hairu and Ui, glares at him.

“Is there a problem?” Furuta tries to laugh.

“You’re much scarier than Hsaio.” Yusa looks sad as he, Rikai, and Shio crawl out from under his desk.

“Hello, brats.” Furuta smiles innocently. “I’m confused.”

Hairu holds up his medical records.

“Those - those are sealed!” Furuta backs away. Arima blocks the door.

“Not by flirtatious doctors.” Ui scowls as Hairu shakes her head. “Really, Souta?”

“Don’t call me that!”

“Why? It’s your real name, isn’t it?” Hirako shrugs.

“You know? And you, too?” Furuta swings around to Ui. “You’re okay with - with them?”

“We know a lot more, clown.” Ui takes no pleasure in this. He still can’t believe Arima and Hairu and the kids are ghouls.

Furuta lunges for the window, but Hirako catches him and drags him to the ground.

“No - no - let me go!” screams Furuta. “Please! You fuckers!”

“You’re not supposed to say that word.” Rikai is perhaps more scandalized by his cursing than his plots.

“We’ll bring you to interrogation and we will learn everything you planned,” Arima says firmly.

Furuta knows what awaits him in interrogation. He shakes his head wildly. “You - you just went along with this - at least i did something - fuck you!”

Arima squats before Furuta as Hirako cuffs him. “I have my own plans. Always have.”

“Then why didn’t you save us?” Despite his best efforts, Furuta’s voice cracks.

Shio’s lips quiver. He throws himself at Furuta. “I still want to hug him!”

Furuta scoffs, but some portion = of the kid who saved Rize must remain, because Arima and Hairu see him lean in to Shio’s embrace, ever so slightly.

How to you think Tsukiyama has managed to teach Naki how babies are made?

“Today, Naki,” Tsukiyama pauses dramatically, “is the day we learn the riddle to the ancient mystery.”

“Misery?” Naki’s eyes widen.

“How babies are made!” Tsukiyama cheers.

Ayato is just close enough to overhear. “Walk faster, Hinami.”

“Can we listen?” Ihei Shio, Souza Rikai, and Arima Yusa slip into the room.

“Of course. Everyone must know at some point.” Shuu begins drawing on the chalkboard. “This is a male’s reproductive system.”

Riki’s face is bright red, but Naki chatters eagerly. “You drew it so big.”

“I have my inspirations.” Tsukiyama winks, and the children giggle.

“Now for the female flower.” Tsukiyama resumes drawing. “And what you’ll notice is that the male has a stem to insert into the flower…”

When he finishes a florid description of intercourse - complete with chalkboard art - everyone stares blankly at him.

“Any questions?”

Yusa waves his hand. His face is green. “Is this where Touka’s baby came from?”

“Kaneki would never! He and Touka wouldn’t touch - like that - ” Naki’s face turns red.

“Why not? It’s beautiful!” Tsukiyama winks. “You’re telling me you never wanted to touch Miza like that?”

Naki squeaks.

The door flies open, and Kaneki Ken, Kusakari Miza, Hirako Take, and Nishiki Nishio stare at a chalkboard peppered with both scientific drawings and possibly sketched porn.

Nishiki doubles over laughing, Kaneki nearly faints, Hirako cries, and Miza storms over to pick up Naki.

“Do you want to make a baby?” He smiles up at her.

Scenario where Tokage tells Urie and the other Quinx (possibly including Shirazu?) about Mutsuki's past misdeeds. Possibly in front of the rest of the CCG like the monster he is.

OH MY GOD THE ANGST I LOVE IT.

this takes place in an alternative universe where Shirazu never died, sometime after Rushima, but before the Clown Raid.

“You’re promoting this monster?” Tokage stretched out a hand to brush back Mutsuki’s hair. The quivering boy slapped him away, but that didn’t stop his laughter.

“What’s so funny, punk?” snapped Shirazu.

“Yes, and he’s Mucchy, not a monster.” Saiko crossed her arms.

Urie glanced at a sweating Mutsuki, and Suzuya Juuzou had gone unusually still.

“Unless you’re a cat, right?” Tokage winked at Suzuya, who paled.

“N-no,” stammered Mutsuki, desperate. “No, you’re wrong.”

“You killed the kitty?” Suzuya’s eyes were wide.

Because he would remember, wouldn’t he, Mutsuki thought in horror. He liked Suzuya. And he’d hurt him. Again.

“And his family, ain’t that right?” Tokage cracked his knuckles, and that was it for Aura.

“Fuck off.” He leapt to his feet, Hsaio on his heels.

“Nah.” Tokage leered at Mutsuki. “Tell me, who was first: your dad? your Mom? your brother? Did you kill your brother and make up the abuse to cover it? Huh?”

Mutsuki doubled over. “No - ghouls killed them, you know that - ”

“He’s clearly upset.” Saiko marched over and tried to place her hand on Mutsuki’s shoulder.

Mutsuki pulled away. “Ghouls killed them - I am a ghoul - I am - I am - I am - ”

“Say it, boy.” Tokage lifted Mutsuki up by his collar. “You are grotesque. And now your Rc count is out of control, you know. You’re a menace.”

He shoved Mutsuki to his knees. “Look at his Rc levels. He’s a real ghoul now. Tell me, what exactly did Torso do to you to make you like him?”

Mutsuki hurt too much to scream. Salt streamed down his burning cheeks.

“I’m bad, I’m bad, I’m bad,” he sobbed.

“Did you kill the cat?”

Mutsuki didn’t respond until Takage pinched his cheek. “Yes!”

“Did you kill your family? Did you eat a dead instructor to survive at the auction? Did you dismember Torso like you wish to be dismembered?” Takage kept pinching Mutsuki just the way he knew Mutsuki hated, and the boy kept whimpering “yes” just to end it.

“So, there you have it.” Tokage straightened. “I did my duty by keeping an eye on him, and now you’ll do yours and exterminate this vermin. Quinx.” He spat at them on his way out.

“I’m not a Quinx,” said Suzuya, leaping forward and kneeing Tokage right in the groin.

Higemaru took a step towards Mutsuki, who jerked his head up to see - to see Urie staring at him. Just staring.

He cried out and scrambled back against the wall. “I’m sorry, I’m sorry, I’m sorry.”

“I don’t care what you did. You don’t have to be sorry to me,” Saiko said stubbornly.

“We like you,” Higemaru added, and Hsaio nodded with a stern glance towards Aura, who immediately added, “Me too.”

“I like him, too,” Suzuya told Tokage, chewing on a strand of black hair. “I don’t like you. Wait, Mutsuki -”

Everyone’s eyes were on him as Higemaru handed Suzuya handcuffs. “I believe this could be considered interference with an investigation.”

Suzuya clicked the cuffs around a protesting Tokage’s wrists. “If I hadn’t had Mr. Shinohara, I would be worse than you. So I don’t look at you with disgust, because you’ve never done that to me.”

“Come here, boy, my ghoulie friend.” Shirazu crushed Mutsuki to his chest. “Like, am I supposed to be worried you’ll eat me? As if.”

Saiko threw herself atop the two, and Hsaio and Higemaru dragged Aura over.

And through the mass embrace, Urie’s fingers reached out to tap Mutsuki’s shoulder.

“I’m gonna hurt you all,” whispered Mutsuki.

“If we could handle Urie, we can handle you.” Saiko grinned.

Mutsuki’s eyes lingered on Urie. Do you hate me?

“Hey.” Urie smiled stiffly. “You know…whatever you’ve done, you’ve been who you are the entire time we’ve known you. And we like you for who you are. Saiko’s right, I think I’ve been more grotesque than you.”

Mutsuki’s heart beat quicker. Could they - could they all accept him?

“Can I hug you?” Urie asked.

A man…asked him permission to touch him? No one did that.

Mutsuki nodded as tears filled his eyes, and for once he found himself in a safe sea of people who loved him. His family.

The Quinx go to a club and drink a wee bit too much.

Dis fun.

Alternate Universe where Shirazu is totally 100% alive.

“Alrighty, everyone. Let’s go.”

“Go where?” Mutsuki looks up in surprise.

“Da club.” Shirazu’s hands are wrapped around Urie, and Saiko appears on Mutsuki’s left, Hsaio on his right.

“Uh.”

Aura is dragged forward by Higemaru. “We’ve been played,” he grumbles.

And so all seven Quinxes find themselves in a club with music so loud Mutsuki can feel it in his teeth.

The solution, as Higemaru assures him, is to drink.

Mutsuki then finds himself crying and babbling on about how inadequate he feels. He leans on Urie, who meanwhile has been drinking to muster the courage to confront Mutsuki. Or just survive the chaotic club atmosphere.

“You’re so handsome,” he finally manages to slur, and then Higemaru interrupts by dragging them both onto the dance floor.

Saiko pouts as Shirazu and Aura begin grinding on each other. “Men are dumb.”

“You’re not.” Hsaio drops her glass onto the floor. It shatters into what she finds a pretty pattern.

“I’m not a man.” Saiko thrusts out her chest.

“Neither am I.” Hsaio grins. “I’ve always wanted boobs like yours.”

“They hurt my back.”

“Can I touch them? Are they squishy?”

When Haise Sasaki arrives per a concerning call from Higemaru, he finds Hsaio and Saiko feeling each other up at the bar.

Urie is vomiting in a bathroom urinal as Mutsuki pats his head.

On the dance floor, Shirazu and Higemaru play patty-cake over Aura’s unconscious body.

He sends an image to Arima. Ui was right. We’re unethical. I quit.

Don’t leave me with this, Arima texts back. I’d rather be with ghouls.
