From Dancer To Reaper - The Light That Lost His Way

Dragon Raja is my new hole and I can't get out of it. Here to show you my beloved son, Kuroi Luciae and his gay crush on Johann Chu (Or I like to call him by his Japanese name, So Shihan.)

[fromdancertoreaper]

Welcome to my little blog! Here is where I indulge in the suffering that is Dragon Raja and show off my beautiful boy right here, Luciae. (taken before he went through craps.)

Why the name “From Dancer To Reaper”? Luciae was an honorable Soul Dancer. However, the plot of Dragon Raja has turned this sweet cotton candy into an emo cotton candy, coming to Reaper (because...the scythe...is my closet fetish...)

I will be posting a lot of pictures which I commissioned from various of artists, as well as some story ideas that come to mind randomly! 

I hope you will find yourself enjoy this little blog of mine, feel free to leave me a message! I always love to get to know more people!

Malleus Draconia Interlude, part 1! Apparently I overestimated how long the Lilia segment was gonna be, it was kinda my fault in the first place for using small canvases ahahahahah. 

I apologize bcs Lilia is most probably EXTREMELY OOC here, this’ll go outdated when Chapter 7 rolls in once we get introduced to the Diasomnia characters properly haha

My friend drew me a design of Dragon!Johann Chu and honestly he’s so gorgeous I might have shed a few tears-

This was inspired by one of my ideas which I told her and then we have this glorious dragon man.

Chisei about: High Patriarch + Chime

Some context on the Manhua: Chisei, after returning from the Mariana Trench mission and unable to find the Cassel team, he returns to Hydra. Masamune appoints him High Patriarch without prior notice. 

You can read my translation (((here!))) Disclaimer, I don’t speak the language but I did my absolute best to translate it clearly!! :,) 

I think that the game really hurts Chisei’s image in the eyes of the player, most people write him off quickly. Part of this is because we don’t get to see his perspective all too often, we view him from the trio’s eyes and Chime’s eyes. “That asshole who betrayed me!”. MC is often seen trailing Chisei just because certain scenes he did without the Cassel team. Execution of Akira Sakurai was a side job before meeting with the Cassel Team, elimination of Kogure Sakurai + two other devils was a whole operation post Mariana Trench. and if I recall correctly we don’t hear his inner thoughts until much later. But in the Manhua we’re always hearing his perspective because he’s a POV character. 

Hydra: Why the hell did they betray us? 

the game imo, fails to communicate this properly. Masamune says he wanted to get rid of us, but why? I literally could not tell you, only thing I could think of was he knows MC KNOWS things and wanted to bury his past. In the Manhua he explains to Chisei that the decision was influenced by the fear of Cassel catching wind of their heritage: All families in Hydra are descendants of the Light King, but according to the rules they buy all means are Devils. Hypocritical when you consider HYDRA’S treatment of Devils, but that’s another topic. This explanation is short and to the point. In game there’s mostly facts scattered around and if you don’t pay attention you could miss it. I recall Nono saying the Japan Division is secretive, Chisei’s panic trying to get the trio to not interact with Erii, in the mural hall where Caesar and Johann discover that young chief Chisei is the Emperor Hybrid. In game it’s just not made very clear what was going on, so understandably people were pretty confused. 

Why did Chisei go back on his word? Ok so.. That’s a question for the Mariana Trench post. But you can see in these pages he’s very against the idea of killing the Cassel Team, he didn’t even know Hydra was going to turn against the college. In game he even says things like “I wish.. we could have been friends.” “what do I say to them?”. basically a lot of things where he just desperately wants to have friends. So more on that in that post :^)  

Chisei: about why he wants to get away from the Hydras

In game, Chisei’s Ally chats are what reveals many of these thoughts. I think a really significant one is his first journal entry, “Every little part of that palace reminds me of a reality I’d rather forget- “You’re a sovereign, Amateratsu-blessed young master, heir to the High Patriarch, but you’re not Chisei Gen himself.”

We know that he’d rather be selling sunscreen on a beach. In the Main Story we don’t directly hear about what he did to Chime. However in the ally chat: Meteor Shower he briefly talks about it. 

While I like this use of ally chats it makes me sad because I totally wrote him off and refused to interact with him until I learnt more about Chisei. This conversation feels integral to understanding him and why he does what he does. The manhua makes it clear that he has a lot of leftover guilt from killing Chime, above all the worst thing he’s ever had to do. 

Through out the Manhua Chisei either briefly thinks about or mentions Chime. Notably, in the chapter I’m talking about, once when he sees Kogure Sakurai and again at the hall of murals when he stabs himself to kill a Death servitor. I can see he thinks of Chime in game but it’s not as blatantly obvious. Subtle things like “Some one once told me that.” “I too, wanted to be on the side of justice…” 

There’s not as much to say about this one since a “scene” doesn’t exist in game. But let me tell you, Mariana Trench and Hall of Murals fight were done SooooOOoo o dirty. I guess my final thoughts on this is that:

It was a scene I really wish remained in the game’s adaptation, it exists- but as fragments scattered across chats, moments and journal entries. It’s fun to learn, but also admittedly, a good tactic to keep players who like the characters interested. But as a side effect it makes people feel confused about the game’s story, and now that I’d pieced things together I… really like the story even if it absolutely breaks my heart. So it upsets me knowing that the game will probably be everyone’s first exposure to the story… Manhua is better but I like playing the game bc I get to interact with these characters.

_____________ I’m going to do Mariana Trench next, I just think it’s a good read and will provide more context for Hall of Murals when I get to that. But it’s certainly going to take a great deal longer, but 100% worth it because I love Chisei more now lol.

I honestly wanted to be his friend too-

But it was a shame since in the game we are basically chopped livers-

Tell me about your main character!

headcanons, show me their pics, basically anyhing! <3

I already made my own headcanons here

[koukouture]

YEEEEE!!! 

I don’t have any pictures on my laptop, but I have three characters, And I’m gonna split it. Today, we start off with Ren Shizuya! (dude in my profile pic) 

- He’s almost mute. He talks occasionally, but, he prefers not to. For him, actions speak louder than words. 

- Him and his ‘twin’ Amari both call Anjou uncle Hilbert

- He comes from a powerful Hybrid family in Japan, the Shizuya family. Herzog took him away after his father died on a mission. He’s the heir to the family manor in Tokyo, but, he hasn’t gone back yet. 

- Last of the Shizuya line and head of the family now, has adopted Amari, a fellow orphan from Black Swan Bay as his younger sister

- His EX is called Blizzard, he’s basically Elsa

- He was born with a random power that let’s him see in insane detail and catch really quick movements. He needs to wear special glasses or contacts for it since it’s super distracting

- Assassin boi! He’s more in tune with his shadow form since his aim sucks

- He’s a closet gay! He has the biggest crush on Johann lol

- He’s the type to push himself until much harder than he should. He feels responsible for the rest of the squad, since he was like the big brother to the kids at Black Swan Bay

- On that last one, he pushes himself on the verge of breaking. A lot of people will try and reason with him, tell him to take a break, but, he’ll tell them he just doesn’t want another Black Swan Bay

- Has a very dark sense of humor. Like, can’t see anything dark. It’s more sad than funny really

Caesar: What are you doing in the kitchen at 3 am?

Ren: Eating a family sized bag of chips

Caesar: But that’s a regular bag of chips?

Ren, with a smile: Everything is family sized if you’re an orphan

Caesar:… *deep breath* Are you ok?

- “Fuck you Caesar I’ll do what I want” was the first full sentence he said to Caesar before jumping off the highest spire of Cassel College, legendary moment

- Sleep? What the fuck is that??? (He can’t sleep without having nightmares so it’s kind of hard for him to sleep)

- Only sleeps every other night, man is nocturnal. Will be up at 3 am when he’s supposed to sleep

- He can SING, he’s got a pretty good voice for someone who barely talks

- He seems really tired most of the time, so people assume it’s ok to mess with him. It’s never ok. 

- C-B average. Could do better, but, he’s away on missions most of the time

- It’s so obvious that he likes Johann but the man doesn’t seem to know it himself. 

This is so long but I love my boi! I’mma do his sister next
