drunk little angel doll perfectly executing dogfight maneauvers then stumbling out of the cockpit unable to walk back to its room on its own...

I always had a bone to pick with Arknights' portrayal of the Inquisition and its cruel policies as actually necessary, down to the Evil Cultists actually having infiltrated the country through the exchange with Aegir and the Inquisition actually having found a good portion of the people they took from Gran Faro to be working for it (including Thiago's lover).

But thinking back to it more deeply that's pretty much in line with Arknights' usual approach; the game has a fairly consistent habit of presenting the most idealistic versions of various ideologies in order to still strike them down as wrong despite that: Vina's father really was a stereotypical "Good King" who wanted to help the people yet still couldn't accomplish anything under a feudalistic system, which led to the literal King Arthur stand-in refusing the throne because she thought the monarchy should end with her; the Witch King really was a genius individual better than anyone else to a supernatural degree and that still didn't stop his downfall and descent into madness and he couldn't protect anything more than a false image of Leithanien perfectly curated for him because any system entirely depending on a single individual is going to fall and there's no merit in an ideology that doesn't allow for weakness and leaves everyone else behind; Aegir really is a more advanced civilization who maybe could actually improve the living conditions for all of Terra but that doesn't stop the story from being very critical of their hubris and their attempt to forcibly impose their will on the other nations; Columbia really is often motivated by scientific passion and is making serious progress at incredible speed and that still doesn't stop its capitalistic and imperialist ambitions from getting in that way of that passion; and so on, there's plenty of examples.

The Iberian events consistently show the Inqusition as unjust and cruel, at times focusing on the aftereffects and the suffering brought by their rule even more than the suffering brought by the Seaborn. Does it really matter if their strict and authoritarian measures were necessary to keep Iberia stable in the wake of the Profound Silence, if the citizens are left so scared of the Inquisition they'd rather join the Church of the Deep anyway? It became an infinite loop where they kept doing everything to violently repress the cultists and that only pushed the people more into despair and straight into the cult that was actually treating them better and giving them food and offering an escape from suffering and hope for the future. The citizens in Exodus from the Pale Sea only survived in their isolation and overcame the scarcity of resources thanks to the Inquisition's rules, but doing that made them so scared, paranoid and devoid of any desire for anything that could make life enjoyable that even after their material situation got better they still didn't dare eat more than the little they had always eaten until now and kept controlling and judging each other for wanting things. It got to the point that when they finally had an actually good Inquisitor trying to make their lives better and to get them to stop following obsolete traditions they didn't understand why he would try so hard to do that and kept clinging to the old ways way after their usefulness ended. And of course Anastasio's entire character is the biggest proof of how warped that entire mentality could be; fanatically following the Inquisition's teachings to the letter made him the the most evil and dangerous Inquisitor we've seen in the game until now by far, while characters like Irene are shown in a far better light explicitly because she's learning to expand her worldview and to seek her own answer and judgmeent rather than solely listening to the scripture.

Arknights' take is basically like... yeah the Inquisition ended up being useful to survive in an extreme apocalyptic scenario where the entire society fell into utter chaos after being attacked by the literal ocean. It still sucked ass so much that people were living better when they were ruled by a warmongering and arrogant king, their entire culture is in shambles and plenty of villages are full of people who act like they already died. For Sal Viento being taken over by a literal horror cult that worships sea monsters improved their living conditions. Even if all the Seaborn disappeared, if this rule continued it'd still be one of the worst places to live in the entire game.

It’s too warm here. It’s too warm everywhere this time of year. It doesn't help that you never quite adjusted to the idea of having your legs exposed. The body hair is a manageable issue but the scars aren’t.

Neat little circular scars from where you claw at every mosquito bite until the skin is flayed. Then repeat with every fresh scab. The pants help with that too. No more panicked expressions when someone notices the blood trickling down your leg from a small wound that is eager to be left alone.

Your clothes don’t fit right either. They don’t exactly make clothes for people like you. They don’t seem to make clothes for anyone. The clothes fit you fine. You’re just warm and probably hungry. Maybe you should’ve stayed home. You’re having a pleasant time.

You’ve been left alone with someone you aren’t normally alone with. It’s best to just stay quiet. You both exist to each other as a part of a larger group. There are risks involved with trying to change that perception. You aren’t in a gambling mood today. You should message someone a bit safer.

Right. The distance in between you means you have different schedules. They’re asleep right now. Did your clothes just get tighter? Is the room smaller? No, you’re just getting hungrier.

It’s just you and the person you aren’t supposed to be alone with. You should ask to order food.

[angelic-soyo]

*looking around nervously* you’d tell the angel if it was being monitored or surveilled right?

[mamablogsies]

it should already assume mama doesn't leave the side of its cage without a way of keeping track of it the whole time she's away...

[angelic-soyo]

is it fine to still be passing “do you like me? yes or no” style notes in class. or is that not cool in high school

[mamablogsies]

well everyone knows it's only around 11 years old so it's perfectly normal

[angelic-soyo]

ground crew maid who's sweeping its cockpit standing on the seat when it falls over onto the lever that closes the cockpit and starts the engines and it lifts off and she has to fumble with the headset and such and base is saying she has to shoot down two other planes! they think she's the pilot but she's only wearing a maid uniform!

just… let the angel handle most of this. push that red button exactly when it says to. alright?

[angelic-soyo]

also gives it a pull-string right above its feathery tail except it doesn't actually have a mechanism for making it say anything it just feels weird and relies on the little angel doll reliably reacting with one of its catchphrases, most often "what the hell"

well it’s not gonna say it *now*

[mamablogsies]

it can't hold out for long... it's only a matter of time 🤭

[angelic-soyo]

designs the little angel doll with a cute windup key between its wings so it can't move on its own at all unless mama turns it and it's also very sensitive so anytime it's wound up it gasps really loud and feels so warm and maybe even has a little giggle fit as it's getting tickled from the inside...

tickled from the inside is way too scary

[mamablogsies]

perfect <333

[angelic-soyo]

it’s colder in here than i imagined. there was no real way for me to know that from a video screen. it’s just that i spent so much time thinking about what it would feel like that at some point it was inevitable i’d have to fill in the blanks. i did get the smell right. this room smells just like you. i wish i could bottle it.

you’re so messy. it’s helpful though. stepping on all the clothes you have on the floor is really helpful for staying quiet. though it is a bit counteracted by needing to avoid all the other miscellaneous items. i wish you’d just let me help. i could be your perfect maid and make this place feel so much nicer.

i’d change your wardrobe too. nothing but t shirts and pants. why won’t you wear a dress or skirts? you’d look so nice in them. just looking at your leg sticking out from underneath your blanket, i can tell how good you’d look. you need to show off more.

this isn’t the first time watching you sleep. you keep your computer facing your bed all night and never even turn it off. it’s so much different in person. my heart is pounding so hard i couldn’t even hear if you started to stir. i need to relax. you’re such a heavy sleeper though. i’ll be fine.

i wonder if i could get away with touching, just a little? no it’s not worth risking it. the pictures are fine. maybe someday you’ll realize that i’ve been watching over you like this and you’ll thank me for taking such good care. i would take such good care of you. i’d probably start by washing your hair. seriously washing it and getting out all those knots.

i’ll be as patient as i need to be. i just needed to see you up close tonight.

[angelic-soyo]

“right… the weather doesn’t get like this much where you’re from does it?”

its charge shakes her head no.

some luck that a storm would blow in and knock the power out while it was doing a babysitting gig. service is out, so it can’t reach its employer. not like they could travel in this stuff anyway. it’s dealt with this weather forever. it’s hard to remember what it’s like being scared of it.

“let’s… try to keep your mind off it. do you know how to play checkers?”

she laughs and does a half eye roll. as if the answer is obvious. of course everyone knows how to play that. it feels a little silly for asking especially since it’s her house that has the board in it. too late to recover now though.

it sets up the board and lights a candle off to the side. it’s just bright enough to illuminate a functional amount of the board. they start playing slowly. she’s better at this than it is. which is pretty embarrassing.

lighting strikes nearby and rattles the house. glass shakes in the cabinets. it startles the charge half to death. she flinches back and kicks the board away. at least it isn’t going to lose now.

“hey hey it’s alright. cmere,” it wraps its wings around and covers her in a dome of feathers, “you’re safe in here. i promise.”

[angelic-soyo]

in its most private moments it daydreams at length about a pilot girl referring to it as “my jet” or “my bird” and kicking its feet until it feels nauseous

[angelic-soyo]

kisses its cute jet nose and polishes it lovingly so it can look its best while shooting down enemy pilots

YAYYYY thank you mama it’s going to shoot down 1 billion enemy jets

[angelic-soyo]

Adding a remotely activated yellow cloud spray to the angel's jet so it looks like the jet peed in the sky

….

[angelic-soyo]

fatigued jet shuddering as the third sweet pilot girl in a year tells it that they'll see the end of the war together

this one’s gonna be the one for sure

[angelic-soyo]

angel getting really really excited because it'll get to miss class for the skirmish only for its commanding officer to forget to sign the officer's note causing the angel to get into a ton of trouble for "skipping class"

if they are going to give it such a forgetful commanding officer you’d think the least they could do is enroll it in a school without this archaic corporal punishment policy

[angelic-soyo]

how strange... air force records state that the angel itself requested that its assigned school have extreme public corporal punishment... whatever could this mean?

you can literally see on the document where miss information officer censored this to make it look like the angel requested to be spanked instead of doing the spanking. she didn’t even fucking doing it right this is black marker and you can see the real words by holding it up to the light
