[fallforthe_sky]

What does Mana think of all these young men who seem to recognize him from somewhere and have the same name as his dog? Does he still think of the DR as some bizarre dream?

Is meeting Leverrier going to have any lasting effects on little Lena? I know she was freaked right out immediately after the fact, but what about long-term issues?

Chapter 71!Lenalee: due to her pull point, she was all set for a suicide attack. So what does she think of Lenalees with canon points clearly ahead of her (if she's met more besides than this one)? Does she hold onto the hope that this means she may yet survive, or push aside the possibility, citing the chance that different worlds = different outcomes?

[countess_hearts]

Mana doesn't think of it as a dream any more, but he's still not treating it exactly as reality. If that makes any sense at all. He's been here long enough that he can't treat it as a dream and does think of it as something like the real world

[countess_hearts]

Cyril finds the Exorcist versions of Noah a bit creepy, insofar as a creeper like him ever gets creeped out. He dislikes seeing Exorcists who look like Noahs. At the same time, those people seem familiar to him. He could have a nice chat to them, potentially...or he could be horrible towards them, because he wouldn't have any empathy for them whatsoever. He was sadistic to one of the Exorcist Tykis a while back, and he didn't feel even slightly bad about it. I'd venture that he might even be more sadistic towards Exorcist version of Noahs. But Exorcist Roads, in particular, upset him.

gfsadsgj C-card. I stalked that thread, ngl.

<3

[countess_hearts]

<3! Ahaha, that thread. Glad you liked it. Poor Tyki, though! I could see no way of Cyril staying in the room and yet not torturing the poor guy a bit.

Missed one!

I might have asked this before, but what is Robin's feelings toward Allens? Does she see them as maybe a third cousin twice removed or someone unrelated who ended up in similar circumstances?

And does she have any feelings of respect or obligations to the Crosses in the DR?

[countess_hearts]

She does see them as sort-of family. What she's been told (...once, by someone playing Hoshino) is that Allen is an AU her, and not of the real Robin, and this is something she accepts. But they're obviously really different in a lot of ways, so she can't quite think of them as her. So the cousin whatever-times removed thing is more like it. Even so, Allens look so much like Robin to her that she can't help treating them a little bit like little brothers sometimes, even though she knows they aren't. The child versions in particular always feel like some sort of family to her.

The Cross thing is complicated. She does feel respect and a sense of obligation towards them. But for the Exorcists of Cross, it's more a reflection of how much they resemble her world's Cross. She has serious problems with their policy of letting modified Akuma self destruct. So she'll help them out of habit, and out of what respect she might have left after subtracting the ethical problems.

[besomeothername]

D'aw. I think it's nice that Julia thinks she is the alternate version of Allen rather than Robin. I imagine there would be complications with the other way around.

Interesting concept with Cross. Considering how careless he is with Akuma life in canon, I was wondering if that kind of spilled over to the opinions of her own master.

[countess_hearts]

Oh, there actually were complications before she found that out. It was really awkward for her whenever she met Allens, since she thought there was a possibility he was an AU of her brother.

If anything, she's got a higher opinion of her own Cross now than she did before, because when he was in the DR she discussed the other versions of Cross and the self-destruct mechanisms with him, and he told her he didn't approve of those mechanisms either. So she thinks her own Cross is a lot better than all the other Exorcist versions of him.

Does Doug have any Lavi that he considers to be "his" Lavi? How much does he know about what happens to him in his world, if anything, and if he does know, what are his thoughts on it?

What is the Countess's favorite shade of lipstick?

What is Robin's favorite thing to do in the Dressing Room?

[countess_hearts]

Doug sort-of knows and sort-of doesn't. He knows that there's something people aren't telling him, and a long time ago dreamtaker_noah showed him a nightmare scene which involved part of what will actually happen to him. But he assumed that what she showed him was fake (and if I remember right, some of it was exaggerated). So technically Doug does know about it, even though he doesn't know it's the truth. The entire scenario worries him and is something he's put out of his mind, but he will find out about it at some point. (Maybe I should canon update him to after Colette's death, sometime.)

The Countess' favourite shade is cherry red. That was originally just in her icon keywords as a joke, but by this point it's been there so long that I'll stick to it.

I think kidroduction is probably still around in the DR, so Robin's favourite thing would be following him around. ^^; But aside from that, she really likes to go to the cafeteria.

[selfdeluded]

Baww, poor Doug. How do you think he'd take to being canon updated?

The Countess is a very classy lady. ♥

Ahahaha that is kind of adorable. ;u; Aww, Robin.

[not_the_spirit]

Doug would take the canon update badly and be a real mess over it. I can't even be sure that he wouldn't be led astray by the Earl. Sooo I have to think about it carefully and work out whether the angst for Doug is worth it.
