A question, if you'd be so inclined. Is there anyone back in your home-reality that you would be happy to get to know better? Any friends you wish to strengthen a bond with, or..?

That is all. I hope you receive many more questions. Best wishes, xoxo"

If I teach myself Beast so I can talk to Vinnie, do you think he’ll think I’m weird?

@sacrificecage The Void Rant is definitely coming, i promise, and should hopefully be pretty easy to write, all things considered, given that it'll mostly just be me linking/explaining sources and doing some light thematic analysis on the side. the extremely barebones gist of it is that not only is it... just True that kirby influenced void and not the other way around, it's also far more in line with and benefitting of SA's entire theme that this is the case.

as for hyness, jesus christ. even moreso than the void rant, i tells ya fdghkjlfd

i've muttered before about writing about why he's so bad, but every time i think about actually explaining that i just get so pre-emptively exhausted, because...

well, as opposed to other divisive characters in the series, who for the most part are divisive on "some people just don't like this particular character type" grounds - even susie falls much more into this than any hatred of her specifically - hyness is controversial because his writing and character take so many swings at so many very sensitive real-world topics. he is just the dictionary definition of poorly-handled. he COULD have been an incredibly cool character - like i've said before, the fandom has been clamouring for a dark matter cult for DECADES! but he was just... fumbled in the extreme. like, we have proof that Kirby Has Become Christian can be both fucking hilarious and genuinely useful to a character's writing; look no further than judas iscariotgolor and the apple of eden lmfao.

but i don't think we needed a literal catholic pope who is a possible very hamfisted reference to a real thing that really happened along with eeeeeverything else Badly Done about hyness, ya dig

he could have been so good, man. he just... he really could have.

Chesed is one of the Sefirot that works for the Facility in the middle layer, Briah, and is the head of the ChesedArmband.png Welfare Team. He has shoulder-length cobalt blue hair with distinctly split bangs and a single lock of hair in the middle. His eyes are brown with bags beneath, showing fatigue. He dresses in a suit styled after the late 19th or early 20th century, along with a blue cravat secured with a button. He wears a blue jacket with a white collar and black trim above black slacks. He also wears a grey armband with the first letter of his name, "C," on it. The color associated with his text boxes is blue. In the past, Chesed's hair was shorter, featuring a ripply fringe. He also had no bags in his eyes. Chesed's Missions focus on speeding through the day in a certain amount of time.

Chesed is sleepy and enjoys coffee, despite the lack of a need to sleep. He is very easygoing, and lax with the members of his team, finding pride in the fact that his team has the best approval rating. Despite this, he has a rather cynical attitude, seeming to have come to terms with their eventual deaths due to being used by Angela. Previously, he was incredibly passionate and motivated, and believes that his past self would be ashamed of his current self. Chesed seeks to make members of his team comfortable before inevitable death.

Chesed's nonchalant attitude is made evident during his first meeting with the manager, which he initiates by asking for permission to have a cup of coffee. Introducing himself as the Sephirah of the Welfare Team, Chesed comments on his department's high approval rate and inquires whether his way of speaking is bothersome, mentioning that Angela ordered him to cooperate with X in spite of how unwilling he may be. The conversation is interrupted by an employee who goes on to apologize for not fully polishing the department's E.G.O, possibly having caused it to malfunction. Retorting in a way he describes as different from what Angela or the other Sefirot would have done, Chesed comforts the employee and allows him to go unpunished, pointing out to X that there is no point in putting the effort to chastise workers that will be eventually replaced. Realizing his coffee has gone cold, Chesed disposes of it, remarking that cold coffee just isn't worth it. Once his first mission is completed, Chesed offers the manager some backhanded praise and commends his efforts towards making the company into a better place, going on to compare it to "coffee gone cold" and advising X to not invest himself too much in meaningless issues. Regardless of whether the manager chooses to rebut or ignore the comment, Chesed tells him to suit himself and displays curiosity in how long that passion will last. The scene then shifts to what appears to be a memory of Chesed speaking to Angela about spending all night coming up with ways to improve the well-being of the employees. Seemingly acknowledging some irony in the advice he gave to X, Chesed leaves. After his second mission is completed, Chesed questions the manager on whether or not Angela has given him praise for his work, quoting a rather typical commendation speech in a dignified voice. Pointing out the emptiness on those words, he goes on to talk about his own past and how he used to be passionate about overseeing an entire department, something that predated even his liking for coffee. Chesed comments on the absurdity of his old ways, and how he once even insisted in managing the Abnormalities as well due to considering it wrong to leave such a job only to his employees. Chesed claims to have no idea as to why he changed so much, and the scene changes to expand on the previous flashback, displaying a conversation between Angela and a younger, more passionate version of the head of the Welfare Team. Angela is shown to dismiss Chesed's projects to improve the safety of the workers in the facility, including the use of machines to handle the more dangerous jobs. In spite of being vehemently denied, Chesed tells Angela he will keep trying and improving his plans until she is convinced. Back in the present, the female Tiphereth is seen entering the Welfare Team to tell Chesed about an accident involving an Abnormality that escaped and killed 8 of his employees. She then forwards the suggestion of other workers to close the part of the corridor in which the disaster took place, as body parts still remain there. Chesed agrees and decides to tell his employees to take detours while the situation is handled, and X has the option to either comfort him or remain silent. Regardless of what is said, Chesed points out that such a disaster was bound to happen sometime, and with a look of uncertainty on his face, finishes off by saying the Abnormality must have given the workers a painless death by making them unconscious before disintegrating them. Once his third mission is completed, Chesed mentions having an eventful, but bad day. He then comments on how it is good to have a clear assigned role, as it makes concentrating on work easier. Additionally, he remarks that Angela is extremely good at keeping everyone in check, and that he too has learned to accept his preassigned role. After he mentions having decided to wait until "her plan" ends, the scene shifts to another memory of his past, showing the still gree-

[Sorry. Not sorry.]

OF COURSE I PICK THE SEFIROT OF THE WELFARE DEPARTMENT FOR A COMPANY CALLED LOBOTOMY CORPORATION
