How did Aym and Baal feel about the fusion in the two brows au ?
The twins aren't the biggest fans of the Amalgam. My Lamb had tried and failed to really earn their loyalty past social obligation. They generally ignore whatever is spoken with Lamb's voice, and obey when it's Narinder's. With time, they may come around.
To be a God is to be a weird pervert, the way I see it, but the way the two had taken the extra step of eternal fusion would catch even the Bishops off guard.
Leshy: "Haha, gross. Crazy shit. anyway,"
Heket: Believes that neither of them deserve such a 'happy ending'. She kinda hopes it kills them.
Kallamar: It's an absolute living nightmare for him. He can tell something went very wrong. It horrifies him, yet he can't look away.
Shamura: They can understand the appeal, but can see the corruption for what it is. They fear that yet another mistake has been made that cannot be taken back.
More answers:
I think they would close the two leftmost or rightmost eyes to wink, and the top eye would stay open? I dunno.
Two brains. They can harmonize and speak at once, but will also speak separately, taking turns. Since they can access one another's internal thoughts, language isn't needed for them to understand. This is why they can also "hear" the Crown, who does not speak a known language. Speaking out loud would reflect the respective party's understanding of the chosen language.
The combined experience and power of the two means the Amalgam has greater potential than any Crown bearer in recent history, yet their power is unstable. The Crown is no longer able to be called to hand as a weapon, but their claws can mutate into gauntlets, and their fighting style is inspired by both of their abilities. Though, coordinating to fight is hard to do, I suspect they would be a bit messy and feral with it, especially at first. Abilities related to tending to their flock, such as mind reading, stayed the same.
Ratau, like anyone with insight into how the two once were or how these things tend to work out, is concerned for their sanity. In a way, he grieves the little Lamb he first met so long ago, but it's out of his hands now.
There is no way in hell the unholy mashup of corrupted, rotting organs inside them could produce a child. If one came to be, it would undoubtedly be an abomination. We just don't know yet. KEEP TRYING!
The crown egg thing was probably a joke… Who knows if any crown actually lays eggs? None have actually witnessed it happen. One thing Narinder and Lamb noticed: Since fusing, they suddenly started feeling more attracted to Goat's crown, as if influenced by Red.
This AU, in part, serves as a way to express how one may feel drawn to codependency. (But USUALLY it's not that deep, usually it's just a sex thing.) The concept of fusion is symbolic of something I fantasize about, something I wish for even if I know it to be harmful, or impossible. Toxic relationships can feel really really fucking good sometimes, or else they wouldn't happen in the first place.
Are they happy together? They certainly think they are. But with such abstracted boundaries in a form that disrespects the laws of nature, can their thoughts be trusted to be theirs? And if they admitted to the faults, what is there to be done about it?
Would they do it again? Yeah, probably. In the BEST case scenario, they would like to find a way to reverse the fusion so they could choose to fuse at will, temporarily.
It was fun thinking about and writing out all these answers, but I still hate to call anything "canon" to my AU, because as always, I change my mind all the time, and like playing with different timelines and themes. I also like to be inspired by ideas you all throw out there, because I often get asked questions I wouldn't even think of on my own. I really love to hear what others may think could happen in TBAU, just as much as I like to ramble about it.
Hmm, how often does the lamb cook a follower egg rather than hatch it?
If they're anything like how I play the game, they cook them most times because it's easier to serve up some omelettes than resurrecting every dying elder they want to keep around.
All bishop eggs get cooked, they are not allowed any offspring. Other eggs' fates are the parents' choice (which is influenced by the Lamb introducing followers with favorable traits to one another. A lil bit of selective breeding is involved)
