wip dump of back when i was really into gsgw and infected my friend with brainrot and she started cooking up a fantastic hallucination (or is it really) fanfic that never got finished bc school got the better of her and I got yeeted into old man yaoi

The perspective was really fun - I don't think I did it properly but it's the vision that counts uwu

#ghost story gotta work #gsgw #gsgw kim soleum #gsgw braun #braunsol #guess who's dripping blood on the balcony LOLOL #hamster product #i really like the warm light of the tv and the tenderness of kse leaning against it. i was playing around with colors a lot #the outside at one point was blood red which was cool bc i love a good horror factor. its not gsgw without the horror uwu

Omg so sorry to send in another ask, but do you have any thoughts on glück and denken’s relationship ? I was talking about it with my friend and we realized while they do seem close since glück took him in when he was orphaned and then later got even closer when he got married to lektüre, their relationship is maybe strained due to macht being there ? like, it’s said in the manga that macht is denken’s master and his enemy, but from his pov glück is also the man who’s putting everyone in weise danger just by having macht there. Idk if this is coherent and it could probably be phrased better, but just in general I think that denken has a weird relationship with glück, definitely grateful to him for raising him and I guess for asking macht to teach him magic, but other than that……. 🥲🥲

Omg dont be sorry at all!! It's great having more things to chew on >w<

I LOVE the question of Denken and Gluck's relationship!!! I think it's so easy to see current!denken's understanding of who Gluck is as a person and their most recent interactions - and assume it has been smooth sailing all along. My thoughts are in line with yours - I agree Denken's relationship with Gluck is probably some version of weird. Yes there would be gratitude of being taken in and provided a (superior) education, but at the same time, Denken would not fail to see Gluck is also benefiting from this arrangment.

Gluck now has a built in back up successor (since his only heir before Denken came along was Lekture who is frail and a girl - canonically we have not seen any heirs or current rulers who are women; I can only assume there's biases in canon that reflects historical ones) plus if Macht can train him into a superior mage, even if Denken doesn't end up ruling, he becomes a valuable military asset with a vested interest to fight for Weise/Lekture. Win-win!

I love Gluck and as much as I wish to write him as a sentimental dilf with a penchant for adopting strays, I see him as more of a man with the potential to view relationships as transactional. Giving Denken the best environment to activate his potential as a mage isn't just to give Denken a sense of direction in life; it’s to make Weise strong. (Hilariously enough it feels like Macht-I-kept-his-favorite-teaset is actually the more sentimental one here...)

Right now I prefer basing a lot of my hot takes on the manga: I don't see any scenes between Denken and Gluck alone spending quality time together. But Denken has tea scenes with Lekture. Training montages with Macht. So between Denken and Gluck IT’S FREE REAL ESTATE FOR ME!! >:D

Tbh I haven't written a lot of Denken and Gluck scenes yet, so I haven't thought of any specific scenes/situations where they might clash. You have me thinking hard about how Denken will percieve having Macht in the city (free reign) as a huge danger for everyone. He is still young - will he take it seriously? Or is he going to take one look at Gluck and Macht's interactions and be like "not my circus, not my clowns" and dive back into learning magic? Either way his relationship with Gluck is definitely not clear cut, and hopefully I'll do the complex nature of it justice!

#kat rambles #sousou no frieren #macht #gluck #denken #the manga just had so many training montage moments i couldnt resist...#devil in disguise #ngl i have like 4 scenes for denken and macht and like maybe 1 or 2 of him and lekture and gluck...the imbalance is crazy lmao

just read the latest chapter of ur glückmacht fic, and since lektüre appears, do you have any more headcanons for her ? :000 I’d love to see any further thoughts you have on her ^_^

a random assortment of HCs that may or may not appear in the fic:

-her favorite type of books are the travel-diaries/tales from travelers of distant lands, she loves the northern plateau and wishes she can one day see the oceans described in those books, but knows her health is too frail and also does not want to put herself at risk in case she is kidnapped and used to threaten her father

-likes big poofy long dresses because it hides her frailness better

-at one point thinks everyone good at magic can grow their own horns (like Macht). was secretly upset she could not grow her own set

-horrible with the stove. She tried making soup and burned it so bad, she's been sticking to sandwiches ever since

-unironically likes drinking milk

-allergic to cats and dogs, so her favorite animal are: butterflies

What if I was a psychopathic demon with no concept of remorse or empathy but still desperate to understand human emotions and you were a once idealistic but now cynical and corrupt politician desperate for justice and you said you would follow me into the depths of hell to help me feel human emotions and then I betrayed you anywayand we were both boys

#frieren #what if i turned you to gold after you said you were dying #what if after you came back to life bc i never actually killed you #you were the first and only thing i wanted to see #have to fujomax these two hard now before people discourse it to death a year from now #<-prev reblogger is so valid for that #words that make me want to eat glass and churn out fanart at the same time. in that order #they make me so unwell 😫 i must now take these barbie dolls and smash them into eachother

Thinking a lot about Macht and Lekture these days.

We see so little of Lekture and I'm REALLY interested to discover what her character will become as I keep writing. Rant incoming below:

#sousou no frieren #kat rambles #this is more character introspec and me thinking outloud #lekture frieren #macht frieren #im writing chap 2 of devil in disguise rn and lekture and machts relationship is making me ask a lot of qs #every single fandom i fall into its always the random side female character that i wanna put under a microscope...#i think its super interesting too that gluck says he would never introduce his family to macht if they trusted him #but we see various panels and cover pages where lekture was hanging out as macht and denken does their thing #does that count as her interactions with macht being approved???#devil in disguise #anyways this scene MIGHT appear in the fic...its so cute that her reaction is to grab those frills on his arm like a handle LOL #giving macht a derpy face bc honestly he is so bamboozled by this impromptu babysitting #macht didnt sign up for child rearing when he first started this collab but both gluck and i will fully maximize his usage xD #fanart for fanfic #lekture #macht

my final four braincells holding on for dear life until i see them animated

#sousou no frieren #lekture #gluck #macht #denken #gluckmacht the amount of suffering im going thru for u two...i need compensation LOL #faces are actually there so my friends who havent seen the manga wont get spoiled LOL but then i looked at it again and was like wow mood #my impressionist era lasts for 4 days...flowers fields are so lovely...soft colors...until i remember how painful it is to render #wip #🚬🪙#a family can be a sickly girl a distrusting orphan a cutthroat politician and a pacifist demon #i was gonna make it really angsty but i decided to change it so u can change your perception with enough copium LOL

DHHDHDHJJUSDUD #do u think macht would look gud with gold flecks? i do. i think he would really slay in gold eyeshadows. gold blush. gold lipstick.#(note to self: KEEPING the random pops of yellow in his eyes for the future. he looks SO good)#i like the manga macht with the giant eyebags. this man clearly has not slept in 40 yrs bc hes been trying to keep his unhinged human alive #🚬🪙#lol i think im just gonna use my emoji system to keep it organized on my blog. good fortune comes when u have a good smoke and lots of gold #back on my shipping hours....do yall ever think about how macht was one of the only ones who gluck could trust in the end #gluck had such a good understanding of demons that it actually felt like macht was playing on the palm of HIS hand.#here is a man who invited a beast into his house and knew exactly how to direct and live with it to accomplish what he needed done #no trust in humans after a lifetime of politics and it looks like hes pretty far removed from the general populous of Weise too #no family left in close proximity. macht was the only one who stuck through to the end with him #hamster product #realistically i should tag kat rambles bc thats what the tags are lmao
