#aster and morvay relationship's nature is not for us to decide

[zeynatura]

Ranting about Nucani

There is something I want to express and this fandom should know.

Nu: Carnival is a Harem game but unlike most games in the genre the relationships with MC are all canon within the same story, there are no "Routes", no "Alternate Universe/Timelines", it's all 1 Main Story where you get to gradually meet all the Characters who'll be your companions, in this game named Clan members, and all of them one way or another end up falling for Eiden (MC), which makes polyam relationship canon with Eiden as the center:

Like very few games have polyam representation, let alone a positive one, like yes the polycule it's very Eiden central but even then all the Clan Members interact with one another, as we see mainly in the time limited Events but also in the Main Story, and have friendly and amicable interactions, they rely on one another sometimes even without Eiden being involved.

But also, Aster and Morvay have a relationship established too since way before the events of the prologue of the game, Kuya and Quincy have hinted some sort of situationship (idk I don't care about Quincy and my knowledge about Kuya is limited to what happens in the story and events cause I have no limited SSRs nor have I read any of his Intimacy Rooms).

[Also if any of you knows of any other relationship that have been hinted at that i'm missing feel free to share, i specifically ask of you to refer to only canon, i know in fanon anything and everything is possible and sometimes we may be missperceiving some interactions between characters so i ask of you to take those rose tinted glasses off and see unfiltered canon, it's hard for me too ngl so dw]

All this started with some posts I saw about ppl feeling bad for Yakumo and/or Edmond to be "forced into a polyam relationship" when they are the "most romantic members" and "deserve a monogamous relationship", their words not mine, as if mono > poly , but also do you really think they're against it!?

One thing is being Clan Members against their will (which is all Huey's fault btw), having to work together to regulate the Altars' Essence (or their own) and then another one completely is involving themselves in a personal and intimate way with Eiden, which the latter they all did in their own terms and out of free will.

Also i wanna share one of the best and my fav scenes with Karu, which i know not everyone was able to experience it cause it's hidden in the Intimacy Rooms of a Limited SSR, but it expresses exactly why the polycule is consensual.

Context: Eiden has been worrying about forcing the Clan Members to be with him because he is the New Grand Sorcerer, against their will just because of Huey's magic that ties them together and the responsibility of Regulating the Altars and basically maintaining stability in the Klein Continent.

His worries began (at least that i noticed) in "Eerie Escapade" (Halloween Event), that was also the first time Garu got hurt while protecting Eiden and the first time Karu got mad at him and fronted to yell at Eiden (which is my another fav scene of Karu omg i love him so much i gotta go back and take screenshots of that but that's for another post), the second one being in "Army x Blood x Oath" (which are the screenshots i'll show u)

Because this are the Intimacy Rooms of Garu/Karu's Limited SSR this scene focuses on Eiden feeling guilty because Garu got hurt in the past (Halloween Event) and this time he lost his memory (temporarily, due to this event's story) and Eiden blaming himself for it all and wondering if they would be better off without him, but the same can and is applied to the rest of the Clan Members, seeing how Eiden met and approached Rei while respecting his privacy and independency even tho he's also a Clan Member and the newest introduced in the story, means that the Limited Events are also canon and part of the story because Eiden seems to be growing and learning from previous Events and showing that development in future Events and the Main Story.

Karu also mentions that Garu (prior to losing his memories) was also worrying about the same thing Eiden was, like 'what if Master (Eiden) stays with us just because of the contract with Huey? :c' and he calls them both idiots because they don't communicate and fronts to fix it! (Mighty Karu to the rescue)

And talking about "Eerie Escapade" that is also the event where Yakumo's possessiveness towards Eiden shows, i'll admit i haven't seen the last room but i feel like those people i mentioned before are using it as fuel to their idea, because if Yakumo is jealous of other Clan Members interacting with Eiden and "Wants him all to himself" that must mean he wants a monogamous relationship, right?

WRONG!

That just means Yakumo is a complex person that feels different emotions specially when it comes to the most important person in his life (Eiden) other than his grandparents!

And Yakumo feels guilty for having those feelings, not because of them being in a polycule and he not wanting to be in it, but because he has trauma and sees his desires and wants as selfishness and he would never allow himself to be selfish cause he doesn't want to hurt people, he's a people's pleaser! He lives with constant fear of hurting others like the Great Serpent did when it killed many (but apparently there may be more that meets the eye, because the current event hinted that the Great Serpent actually liked humans and took care of children ???)

And Yakumo dealing with those feelings along with his yokai powers as a descendant of The Great Serpent have been the main topic of his last 3 Limited SSRs, which is great because that means CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT~

Now unfortunately i cannot talk about Edmond's Intimacy Rooms as i'm missing ALL OF HIS SSRs (why do you hate me Edmond if ily) but from what i've seen he's also pretty happy being with Eiden, heck even HIS MOM is happy his son is with Eiden!

That's right, she's the first and only parent of the Clan Members that knows and approves of their relationship, if it weren't because most of them are orphan we could get many more... i wonder if Yakumo's grandparents are aware hmmm ... and we all know Olivine's parents are gonna HATE it xD and maybe Garu's wolf pack will approve of Eiden by the end of this event.

#i just realized i may not be the right person to talk about polyam relationships and representation #even if i'm open to polyamory while in a monogamous relationship currently #and i do my best to do my research about it and learn from polyam people #but then again i used to do the same with queer people before finding out i was queer #and neurodiverse people before realizing i am one too #and the most recent was autism :D #so maybe i'm not the wrong person to talk about it #also if any of you treat Garu and Karu as the same person when they're a system i will lose it #or worse when people don't acknowledge Karu #help me i love these pups with my life and i will protect them #aster and morvay relationship's nature is not for us to decide #but the fact is that they have one #nu carnival #nucani #canon polyamory #if you read all this i love you~ #edit: i thought Morvay having multiple sex partner was obvious 🤔 #but some ppl pointed it out so #yeah #the incubus has sex with many ppl besides Eiden and Aster all consensual #while Aster finds it annoying but also helpful Eiden think it's hot #big edit: nvm I AM THE RIGHT PERSON to talk about this as im ambiamorous #which means im happy both in a monoam and polyam relationships #so i am in the polyam spectrum and would love to have what these boys have

Deity of Sun

first post, so please repost with feedback <3 This is a nukani nsfw fic.

I DON'T OWN NU: CARNIVAL!!

(I dunno why, but it feels right to put it here.)

Ships included: Quincy x OC(main focus), Edmond x Dante(mentioned)

Warnings: fluff (cringe?), Author's first fic, smut, bottom OC, top character, Post Eiden, Established Relationship, Eiden not knowing about the established relationship, Eiden not knowing about OC. Manhandling, multiple orgasms, pet names (love, sweet), Eiden being so confused and surprised to feel horny, Eiden listens in on the devious acts (by accident tho)

The only people who know about my OC name is Quincy, Blade, Kuya, Aster, Morvay and Dante (Dante views OC as a Solorian religious deity.)

MAJOR PLOT CHANGES ARE UNDERWAY!

ENOUGH TALK, LET'S FIGHT!

🎭

Eiden remembers asking Dante about Solorian religion. And of course, Dante swells with pride, conversing about his culture.

"Soloria worships one ultimate godly ruler."

"Akua o ka lā."

From what Eiden remembers about Akua o ka lā is that, He made the sun in the lands of the fire territory. Legends has it that with the sun, he used it to control the weather. Dante stated that he was rumored to have long, chocolate brown hair fading into a gold color and pink feminine eyes.

The way Dante described him, he sounded hot!

He wanted know more about him. Eiden asked Olivine, but the priest knew as much as Eiden.

Basically nothing.

So, he wanted to ask the oldest person he knows.

Quincy.

And that's what led him to his current predicament.

On the outside of Quincy's door, listening in on a symphony of high pitched whines and low octave groans.

-On the other side of the door-

Quincy nips at the smaller man's neck. The smaller arches his back in pleasure.

"Winnixa..." Quincy called to the man currently taking all of his thrusts.

"Ah~ha, ah~" the man now identified as Winnixa violently moves up and down at the pace Quincy has set.

Quincy abrupted stops his movements and Winnixa loudly cries out.

"W-why~ y-y~you sto-"

He was cut off by Quincy quickly pulling out and suddenly changing his position.

Ass up, face down.

With a swift reentry, Quincy redoubles his efand increases his speed tenfold.

Winnixa's cries and pleads are also increased tenfold.

He was actually screaming his lungs out.

Winnixa lost count of how many he came.

He had tears running down his pink colored eyes.

Winnixa felt Quincy's big hand in his chocolate brown and gold curly hair.

-Back to Eiden-

Eiden was flabbergasted on so many things.

Who's Winnixa? How does Quincy know this man? What's their relationship?

He decides to leave the 'lovebirds'(?) alone.

He would ask Quincy about it tomorrow.

-The next day-

Eiden intercepted Quincy at breakfast.

"Hey Quincy!" Eiden greets.

"Hm." in Quincy language that means 'God morning to you too.'

"So um, I have a question for you. Who was tha-"

"So I was right. You were the snooper last night."

"Wait, so you knew I was there for awhile?!" Eiden nearly yelled out before realizes they are right in of Edmond and Dante's room.

They both are grumpy in the morning when awakened before their natural time.

"Follow me." Is all Quincy said before making his way back to his room.

Now, Eiden is face-to-face the mystery man from last night.

With a slight blush on his face, Winnixa introduced himself.

"Hello, I'm Winnixa. I'm also a member of the clan back when Huey was around."

Then, that's when Eiden put everything together.

"YOU'RE AKUA O KA LA?!?!?"

"Um, yes."

[essencering]

↳ summary: with huey's disappearance you've taken it upon yourself to watch over those huey left behind, but you find yourself more often than not worrying over two of the remaining four that remain. two whom you are sure that find your mother henning like ways and annoying, troublesome bother. ↳ Tags: Gender Neutral Reader, Gem Clan Reader, Kuya (NU: Carnival), Quincy (NU: Carnival), Developing Relationships, First Meetings, Kuya Being Kuya.

writer's blurp: wanted to write something for the nu: carnival folks for a bit, and the lovely thought of making the reader a clan member, but having them watch over/be around (and just close) to kuya and quincy made me all soft. so here we are.

first meeting(s) ;;

↳ kuya is an enigma, upon first meeting the yokai despite the bond that you share as clan members and through huey is that kuya was someone too far away for you to ever become close to.

straightforward, cunning, criticizing, manipulative, but also beautiful.

you do your absolute best to avoid meeting kuya's gaze. not wanting to be one of the few whom kuya torments in whatever manner he chooses to be the best, but when the yokai's lips turn in that plotting little manner, and he coos your name in that sweet tone-- you already know that you're in trouble.

you simply pray that the gods will show you mercy for kuya catching your wandering gaze lingering on him for who knows how long before he decided to comment on it.

↳ quincy is a man of few words and physically imposing with his massive physic. it goes without saying within the clan that quincy is the muscle of the group, the intimidation that can be used on both man and beast alike.

yet despite this, quincy is incredibly kind, to the common folk, to nature, and most of all to his clan members.

"troublesome." is quincy's only response after knocking you down for the umpteenth time while training, and despite how he showed you no mercy just a moment ago, his grip on your hand is tender. almost as if he's handling a lover-- a thought you quickly shoo out of your mind.

yet, somewhere along the way the distance you kept between one another slowly, but surely vanished and in place of that distance was a shared tenderness and warmth.

after huey disappears ;;

↳ quincy seems relived, a weight has been removed from his shoulders and he is the first to leave the mansion that would later become both aster and morvay's home. quincy returns to the wood territory, keeping to himself and responding to letters once every so often.

the scent of the forest, deep ancient, and rich clings to the paper when you read it before penning the response of those who remain back to quincy.

it's only when the responses stop that you become worried. a huge gap between letters? not uncommon, but no contact at all? you couldn't keep still, worry turns into adrenaline as you pack for the journey ahead. you ignore aster and morvay's worried tones trying to stop you, to keep what little remained of their now broken and scattered family together.

kuya appears like a specter, beautiful, and ethereal looking in the moonlight. his true self unbound while smoke and mist swirl around him.

"now... where would the weakest of us be running off to while leaving the familiars wailing inside?" kuya's voice is sharp, his eyes glowing despite the question posed to you, the yokai already knows exactly what is going on.

"quincy i'm going to check on him."

"quincy is a big boy little bird, i highly doubt that he wants to be worrying over you again now that he's free." kuya's tone is curt, but you don't miss how his eyes crinkle at the edges just a bit before he waves his pipe in the air. "best come with you or else our old friend would glare holes into me. troublesome, oh how troublesome our little bird is."

with kuya's help, you find quincy, and despite how unamused he is at seeing you and kuya the small smile, the light in his eye, and his hand musing through your hair calling you troublesome feels more like a welcome home.

↳ kuya seems to remain the same straightforward, cunning, criticizing, manipulative and beautiful yokai he was before huey disappeared, but it's the little cracks that show when he thinks no one is watching turn your guts into knots.

after finding quincy in the wood territory kuya decided to take up residence here as well, which makes sense since both he and quincy are from here, but kuya takes it further going deeper into the forest where man and nature blur together.

between the mist, the plants, and the animals reaching kuya becomes a challenge of its own. quincy more often than not is the one to seek out the yokai, coming back with that same tired gaze to tell you that kuya is fine.

"if he's fine then why do you keep looking back quincy?" your question startles quincy, your friend, your fellow clan member smiles before musing your hair.

"he's just lost," quincy's response is all it takes for you to change your form, circling around quincy once, twice before he extends his arm for you to perch on before speaking once more. "stay with him little bird."

quincy lifts his arm and you take to the sky, the canopy of the forest blocking out most of the sunlight, but not all of it. the sounds of the forest and all that lives in it are kept safe and hidden under the canopy as well.

kuya's home is for once not a challenge for you to find, the mist is non-existent for once, and both kuya's scent and essence aren't muddled either. for once, just this moment you see kuya in such a crystal clear quality that you can't help, but wonder.

how someone as straightforward, as cunning, criticizing, manipulative and beautiful as he could be lost. mix-matched eyes land on your form, the lines between reality and the start of kuya's illusion become muddled. he's allowed you in, but that doesn't mean he isn't above blocking you out.

"why do you stubbornly continue to bind yourself to us little bird?" kuya's voice lacks his usual cutting tone and you can't help, but fly down next to him. beak carefully moving through his hair, and chirping in place of your own words. "i could clip your wings little bird, keep you in a little cage for my amusement and our friend wouldn't be able to do a thing about it."

it goes unspoken, that the things that belong to kuya will never leave his sight or side. even with his declaration sending a spark of fear through your body, after spending so much time with kuya-- you can see when he's being all talk.

"if you do that then quincy would be upset and you have such a lovely home, with lovely little things in it-- my clipped wings aren't needed not when i offer my binding to others so sparingly," you butt your forehead against kuya's the yokai grumbling in response while holding you in place.

"until he comes... stay just a little bit longer. my home should be a comfortable enough cage for the night." kuya's voice is quiet, and his body grows heavy against your own as the yokai falls to sleep.

"troublesome." quincy's voice makes you laugh, turning to look at him with a smile hand combing through kuya's hair you ask him to help you get him to bed.

despite kuya living on his own, the bed is the perfect size for all three of you.
