Could you imagine if Laios was isekai'd over to the Monster Hunter universe? That boy would be trying to put EVERYTHING in his mouth, he would either be the happiest man in the universe or fucking dead XD

𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗻𝗲𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿𝗲𝘀𝗲 𝗼𝗿𝗯 𝗮𝗰𝘁𝗶𝘃𝗲𝗹𝘆 𝗿𝗼𝘁𝘀 𝗮𝘁 𝗚𝗮𝗹𝗲'𝘀 𝗯𝗼𝗱𝘆. And it is excruciating. On his chest, one can trace its ugly mark, the brand less discoloration and more, unfortunately, a deep-grooved scar. It is unavoidable and impossible to ever miss. Similarly, the way it eats at him is obvious, too. Gale, especially at the start, when his condition, fresh and disorienting, was still abundantly new, the effects of the orb were frighteningly worse. At that time, he little knew how to quell it, that feeding off the Weave would balm the pain, and so for all those days and weeks of panic, he rotted and ached at a terrible pace. He had decayed. And he had bled. Gale's body oozed black, skin, especially at his casting arm, rupturing like cracks in terracotta. He tasted filth always, the bitterness of wasting flesh thick in his throat, nose perpetually leaking with the ink-dark of bleeding. He'd labored to breathe, a feeling like devouring maggots pulsing in his chest. In fact, at the lowest point by then, wallowing and stuck in his tower, Gale began to lose hair, his nails loose and cracking as he scrabbled at the floorboards, knees weak and pain bolting when he collapsed to the floor. He was a pitiful sight. And a worrying one. And even now, with the consumption of magical artefacts, one can still see the way he bows to the blight, heaving for breath when it takes his chest again, sweat at his temples and mouth gone dry. It's all-encompassing. The agony is chronic. It feels like being eaten, being hollowed to his barest self right from the inside. He's a vessel of magic, and the orb means to consume him down to his every last molecule, teeth bared, hackles raised, and appetite crushing. It's like--dying, stolen away to be but swallowed down whole, surrendering to the suck of a hungering vortex. He's unsightly. As well, too, as a burden, he thinks, to the very naked of his bones. But when someone hangs back, touches him despite his rot, he thinks, you shouldn't have to handle something like this. This mere shamble of a graveyard--he's so sorry to dirty their hands.

Just so logical of John to make Kiriona's skin bullet-proof. Her blood is a liability, so make sure she can't bleed. Having an invincible Achilles for a daughter just makes it a win-win. He'd have done that whatever age he found out about her. Wake's ship intercepted and Gideon discovered as a baby? Bam, invincible baby.

Absolute mood. Brains love to have ideas and then let them sink into the Abyss.
On that note, have some fuel for later: the eventual ramifications of captured-by-Victim stick c!alan must be horrendous—nuclear, if Second's response continues to escalate. But hey, at least c!alan and Chosen have similar scars now, depending on how far Victim decides to go! Like father like child. It must feel like Karma.
oh man.......... i never even considered the scars......
i imagine it's a lot worse for c!alan just because the majority of his injuries are in a small period of time, and also because he's not superpowered like SC, Chosen, or the Dark Lord, and doesn't have the punching-bag endurance of victim either-- victim basically only lets him live because they don't want him to have the mercy of death too soon
it's part of why i think chosen would eventually end up like, kind of forgiving him for what he did. it's not that what he did isn't horrible, but he ended up going through something similar and STILL didn't want victim to hurt the others, even if it meant they stopped torturing him. it's just very unfortunate that response just elicits morbid curiosity from victim
and like. while i definitely think it does feel like karma, the others reassure him he didn't deserve anything like that, even Chosen to some degree. bc what victim did was horrific and they acknowledge that he's changed completely, because even though he clearly would much rather Not deal with this, he still did what he could to protect the others from getting hurt
