What is the sound of a one winged angel
when fighting in the Final Fantasy?
Nega tries to steal advantage again
but is thwarted, as easy as can be.
Tarot reveals how desperate she is;
her plan involves renewing the Dragon.
Hoping the godlings will be on their side
isn’t something to bet the whole world on…
Dancing through the descending debris,
Swimming through the sea of souls;
manipulating things towards mana;
that tricky pair will reach their final goals...

Hmmmm....something tells me neither Craig nor Draig will use the mana pool and, instead, Kix will use it instead.

Dragon's mana pool is between Eudoant and Great Kitsune, it was quite hard to figure out at first... :roll: So, the two kits need to be thrown in it? Sounds really dangerous, and sad for Kix, too... :| But there aren't alternatives. If you say that's easier to get there, Tarot, I hope you know well what's going on. :? Ah, yeah, your paper bags, which aren't anymore working because you're not really in the temple... Eh, shame. :P

Apparently NegaBreel did not get the training on bag operating procedures........ "Plunk" and vanish doesn't work this time.

Just wondering if when Craig and Draig do get to the mana pool will they end up turning back into their Celestial forms? I know that when anybody touches it things will happen.

I imagine that’s what Tarot is hoping for.

Possibly, yet I liked the suggestion someone had earlier that Kix would be the one to dive into the Pool. A two vs one fight seems more fair than a trio vs a solo.

And going back to a previous Page, someone else theorized how touching the Mana would turn them good-ish, like 'EnBy' rn, and I really dig that. Question is, would they still be a Demon or turn into a human, or animal even?

Since GKitsune is responsible for their transformation, wonder how he'll feel about that? (`course, if they rescue his nine-tails, he may be just fine with it! :lol: )

I wonder if Kitsune is going to face any penalties after this arc ends, and I mean real penalties not just being beaten by Kix, though he totally deserves that

Probably depends on whether or not he fixes things should he win. Reversing the cursed city sounds like a start.

I do think that he should face some punishment that is in addition to having Kix beat the crap out of him. After all, it was his complacency and playing around in the universe when he should have been paying better attention to everything that got this mess started in the first place.

It might be fair that he winds up having the same punishment as Craig and Craig, with Cerb dropping by from time to time to make sure they're all playing nice while serving their equal sentence.

Not sure if that would actually be a punishment since he has no problem with staying with Kix and being a father to Craig and Draig. It would definitely have to be something in addition to that rather than just being turned mortal. Maybe several centuries of Celestial community service but as a mortal.

Most of Kitsune's descions in this arc have been completely stupid but I feel like Bahamut is more deserving of punishment considering his higher status. He literally could've stopped this entire apocalypse (as well as all the everything Pete and Dragon did) but just... didn't, for some reason. We don't even get a "God works in mysterious ways" handwave, and even if we did that doesn't do much considering how involved and open the Celestials are in this universe. They act a lot like the Greek pantheon, obsessed with pleasure (as evidenced by the HP! version of Heaven) and power and constantly screwing with mortals, but they have the omnipotence and (at least on the surface) compassion of the Abrahamic God, which can be kind of a confusing and uncomfortable mixture at times.

Oh! I just remembered something: What if Steward dives into the Pool instead? It'd line up with that talk he had with Keene on the Plane earlier.

Plus, I kinda want to see a more heavenly version of his Mega Demon form too...

That could be his redemption then. He dives in, becomes a Celestial to help defeat Eudoant then goes to heaven to be given a hero's welcome.

I feel like that would be throwing both Bailey and Kix under the bus.

If kitsune is locked to mortal form it will probably be as Kix's mate since he's already doing that

Plus he enjoys that so it would have to be something else for him to be punished with. Taking him away from Kix and the kits would be unfair to them so I don't think that they would force him away from them.

My main concern was less "will Kitsune and Kix stay together" more than the disturbing and uncomfortable implications about bodily autonomy and woman's rights that reincarnating Celestials into babies as punishment entails. We already got enough of that with Pete and Dragon.

Either her or Marion and/or Lois. It’d be weird if Todd stepped up to it.

In regards to Kitsune’s punishment, wouldn’t it be surreal if somehow he and Kix swapped places?

You mean Kix becoming a Celestial? Somehow it seems like a bad idea, giving someone who initially had limited understanding of reality. Kitsune has stated that he’s lived as a mortal several times, and he’s still trying to figure everything out.

When vulpinator said that Kix and Kitsune would swap places, I thought that they meant bodies instead of their positions of being a mortal and a Celestial. That was my bad.
