Mundi, why did you let yourself become a concubine for Nevo? Was it just to protect Vanya or did you have another reason for it?
“Let yourself”. You say that as if I really had a choice on the matter.
If I hadn’t agreed, Nevo would have left Vanya in the woods to fend for himself or forcibly trapped in a so called ‘nunnery’. Even with our agreement to let me take care of him if I was his ‘concubine’, I can’t protect him as much as I would want to. He broke Vanya to the point of being an apathetic husk; asking me almost every day if Nevo would take him back or not. Nothing I can do can save him. But… feeding him, giving him shelter and what little company I can provide is better than nothing.
At this point, I don’t really care what happens to me. Nevo ruined our lives… and I intend to ruin his once his guard is down enough. Who would ever suspect his loving blushing bride to suddenly wring his scrawny neck in the throws of passion?
So for reasons I’ve been thinking about the hell route of bad god a lot more recently, namely the time before Mundi got all of his memories back and became the god slyer hes most infamous for. Back there was a time where he had no memories of his former life and was just a shell. Kinda of like how the lambs were, had no idea who they were, but since Mundi was brought back as an adult he didnt have the luxury for everything to be slowly taught for him. The was Vanya’s job, the ‘Bringer of Life’ to educate the recently deceased man on how to properly live again. Nevo took a bit of interest in the pretty flower, a bit too much interest. Vanya did his best for Nevo not to take advantage of him and tried to be strong for Mundi’s sake until he finally could remember and get the fuck outta there.
Anyway, more detail under cut
So the first picture is basically a lay out to a lot of the routes in bad god in general and where they branch off into different areas. Hopefully this can be helpful to people.
Next is Vanya’s actual proper ‘Hell Route’ attire. In a way. He has the ‘shepherd’ outfit when Mundi is still under his care, but when Mundi is brought in as the Concubine, Vanya was basically ‘get thee to a nunnery’d to be a priest so he could spread Nevo’s word all around. Though mostly it was an excuse for him to get the fuck outta the compound since Nevo was bored of him.
I’m not exactly sure what to call Mundi’s position. He wasn’t a lamb, and Vanyas title was ‘bringer of life’, a bullshit name nevo came up with on the spot to make Vanya feel important. So maybe a vessel? For some reason Flower sounds nice, like hes a gardener and stuff. Also yes he’s wearing pants, the pants are white. I figured itd be something that looked similiar to the lambs since why not??? Fitting? So.. yea here ya go.
Originally the ribbon is in his hair as a braid, but as Nevo started to realize that was a bonding thing between the two, would make it come undone so it’d be something less to tie them together. Mundi didnt really understand only that this guy was God and what he says go so eeh.
Now we get a loving moment between the two star crossed lovers. Is it in the ending? Is it a dream mundi is having? Or is he just imagining Vanya in Nevos place? Who knows.
With Mundis hair without a braid, the ribbon moves to around his collar, similiar to how mikhails was. For the most part Mundi stayed by Vanya’s side constantly, it was familiar and it felt nice. Nevo tried what he could to still get his attention though. Vanya didn’t like it, not one bit.
As we have an example here; with hell it’s jealousy and possessiveness that starts to rot Nevo further than just what the curse has to offer. Mundis not sure whats happening but luckily Vanyas around to stop it. Of course you might wonder if Nevos God why not just claim him anyway and Vanya cant do shit... well because Mundi is still his responsibility. He still needs Vanya to teach him things as well so he just needs to bide his time until he’s not needed to make his move.
Nevo’s really gross in this route I can tell you that.
Hello, I was wondering if Sigmund have any part of the Bad God AU and if so, is he a lamb or something else?
A lamb? I am not too sure what that is but I do serve a purpose. I am only but the God’s Concubine. I was hand chosen from the Bringer of Life, or I suppose the staff know him as Vanya, to be brought back into the world only to please our Lord. I will do whatever it takes to make him happy.
I will do whatever it takes.
(Side note: Siegmund does have a role but only in the Hell Route, aka, in which Nevo goes completely mad and breaks Vanya earlier on by bringing back an old love interest instead of his son. Siegmund swears revenge by being a whore for Nevo to drop his guard before murdering him. He loves Vanya deeply, broken toy of God or not.)
This is the realistic equivalent of the school doing falsettos because falsettos would never happen because cough cough a 7 people cast is a tough thing to do with a high school because competition and toxicity but something rotten is like. Sizable so
