May I request for the arcana the main 6 realizing they're in a game and they fall for the player (like ddlc)? I hope this makes sense. Thank you
Yup, makes perfect sense! 
warnings: none!
-Asra Alzanar-
He was probably the first to realize, that you were more than just you
It took him awhile to figure out exactly what it all meant, he was accepting of it all nonetheless
Although, he sometimes wishes that there was more he could do to help you with your real life. You go through so much everyday, and his heart just aches at the idea of you going through hardships and he can’t do anything. It’s frustrating for him
So he may…. Um… change his coding a bit? Just a bit!
He just wants to add in a few words of comfort, makes his words a bit more gentle, make sure that you know you are loved and supported, even if he can’t do much in the real world
He does this a lot, but he’s smart about it. He changes it just enough for you to be like “wow, that’s so me!” Or “wow, I needed to hear that!” but never enough to freak you out 
Making you smile, laugh, or blush makes his heart just glow happiness
It hurts a little to see you play the other routes, but as long as they make you happy, then he can find a way to live with it. He just keeps telling himself that you’ll come back and replay his route, and that idea alone keeps him going
He admires your kindness, the fact that even in a place with no repercussions, you still care about him, about all them
The fact that you take time out of your day to spend time with him means a lot, and he cherishes every second of getting to know you better
He hopes that whoever you fall in love with in the real world spoils you
Faust doesn’t quite understand the whole situation, but loves you regardless
-Nadia Satrinava-
She began seeing the signs that something was up, but couldn’t quite put her finger on it. She had her theories but they just seemed… too crazy to be real
That is, until the signs became too many too count and she had to accept she was simply a character in a game
Aside from having her mind blown and having extra wine that night, she was chill
When she met you and realized you were from the real world, she wasn’t quite sure how to feel about you at first
But, you were simply too charming and sweet for Nadia to resist
She’s always sweet on you, silently noting what makes you blush and smile 
Worries whenever you’re playing the game late at night or she can sense that you haven’t taken care of yourself. She tries to drop in subtle hints by pampering you inside the game, hoping it’ll remind you to do the same in the real world
And if that involves making the game glitch and crash to get you to go to bed on time, then so be it
She’s glad that you take breaks from the game to enjoy the real world, and she often thinks of you when you’re away, imagining what you might be doing
She only begins to worry if you’ve been away for a long while, and is always relieved to be spending time with you again
She finds your reactions to the things she does precious, and you have no idea how much she loves seeing you blush and smile
-Julian Devorak-
Julian figured it out basically right after Asra
He was completely fascinated by it, and he wanted to research as much about it as he could, both to be more aware and better help you 
He always remembers the little bits of your life in the real world that slip into the game. He likes to casually mention the things you’re interested in, and drop in words of comfort for when he knows you’re going through a rough time
He’s very picky about changing his coding because he can only do it every so often (it’s a bit tiring, and risky too) so he’s an absolute perfectionist about making his lines perfect for you
Fretted like a mother hen when you did his Reversed End because he didn’t want to be causing you extra worry when you already have enough in the real world
And now he continues to fret like a mother hen every time you do someone else’s Reversed End (he’s dreading Lucio’s Reversed End, you have no idea)
If you ever cry he comes this close to saying something like, “No, sweetie, no! We’re fine, everyone’s fine, see? We’re all okay, please calm down, I’m so sorry.” It took all his self control to stick of less direct words of comfort
Extra, extra affectionate when he knows you aren’t getting the love you deserve from the real world
Blushes like an idiot when you decide to play his route, and dies a little on the inside from happiness when he makes you blush
100/10 would do anything to make you happy
-Muriel-
He was initially very confused, but after remembering that the world they all live in is weird enough, he just shrugged it off and accepted it
He was wary of you at first because you’re from an entirely different world
But… he began to warm up to you. Actually warm up to you, and not just because his coding wanted to. He just genuinely liked you
Pleasantly surprised whenever you play his route, he never really thought that he was that interesting compared to the others. He’s just glad you like spending time with him as much as he does with you
He was really nervous about changing his coding the first few times, like the coders might get mad or you might get scared
But when you just blushed and smiled even more, he decided it was well worth the risk
You have no idea how proud he is whenever he can make you happy, it makes his heart swell so much
Inanna can sense something is different about you than everyone else, so she goes out of her way to be extra sweet towards you
She also gives Muriel extra encouragement to change his coding because of how shy he is about at the start
He isn’t quite sure how to feel about you playing the other routes. He always just worries you’ll begin to think he’s lackluster compared to the others and just… not come back
So he’s always glad to see you replay his route, and he hopes he can relieve some of the stress you face in the real world. He knows no matter how hard he tries he can’t protect you from it, so the best he can do is make you happy
-Portia Devorak-
Portia figured it out not long after Julian, he’s awful at keeping secrets from her
She actually thought the whole set up was cool, that all of them got to be connected with you across different worlds
So excited! Every time! You start playing!!!
Will she get to see you in Treasure Hunter? Will you play her route? Will she get to see you in someone else’s route? It’s all great!
She probably handles you playing other people’s routes the best because she realizes it makes you happy and that’s enough for her. She gets to see you a few times in the other routes, and seeing how excited you are to be on a new adventure makes her excited too
She’s giddy like a small child whenever you play her route, she tries to be as cute and affectionate as possible so you can feel as loved as you really are
She’s sneaky about switching up her coding, changing little things to make it seem like nothing but coincidences
Very playful in general, she tends to cater towards your sense of humor
Worries whenever you’re going for one of the Reversed Ends and tries to be extra soft the next time she sees you 
Always reminds Pepi to be extra cuddly when she knows you’ve had a rough time in the real world
She finds it sweet when you get really into the game, and she’s glad they can all provide an escape from reality for you :)
-Count Lucio- 
Wasn’t really affected about figuring it out?
He was more like, “Why did it take so long for me to get my route??? Why???”
That point aside, he was a little nervous about really meeting you in his route
In nearly every route you side against him, albeit you sometimes chose to be a bit more polite than others. That’s a relief
He was frustrated that he didn’t get to spend a lot of time with you. He wanted to get to know you better! He wanted to be the one to make you happy!
It was safe to say he was nervous. He was the villain. You could choose to skip over his route and he’d never get a chance to know you well
So you have no idea how relieved he was when you first started playing his route
He’s been tempted to completely break his coding and the fourth wall so many times, it’s not even funny. He’s reckless enough with changing things as it is, so it’s a miracle you haven’t noticed how much he caters to the things you like and what he knows of your real life
He just wants to make you smile, laugh, blush, and realize that you’re a wonderful person because even he, a character in a game, can tell that from a completely different world
But the others always scold him when he suggests doing too much, telling him that it might frighten you. He obviously doesn’t want to lose you completely, so he reluctantly agrees for now
He’s a bit jealous when you play the other routes and tries to pout and hold a grudge, but his jealousy fades to pure glee when he sees you again
