how would everyone in the king’s army react if they found out about his abuse of lain?
there definitely would be people within the army who would change their entire opinion on the King and revolt or desert (Sycamore for one would march her straight ass over there and attempt to kill the bastard herself if she got confirmation of what he did to Lain), but I think, given the toxic masculine environment The King has cultivated in the army with likeminded people like him at the top, a lot wouldn't care.
do you have ao3?
I do not. I hate writing, worst part about making comics by yourself fr fr. Anyone who writes has my immense respect and praise
what was the king’s life before he became king? childhood? adulthood? etc? im sorry if this question is spoilery in any way im just curious to see how the king came to be the asshole that he was before condor killed him.
Not exactly spoilery as much as I just haven't thought about it! A lot of it is not just relevant to the story. The King and his actions are symbols that affected Lain, almost everything else is irrelevant. IE: Lain wasn't around for the King's childhood, so its not important to Lain's story
If I HAD to pin down the King's life it would be like. He had a normal childhood. When he grew up he took out his colony's tyrannical leader. After freeing other colonies from their leaders he got a huge ego about it and started to believe he was the only correct cat to lead. The King's conquest/the war begins (and also all that shit with lain happens here). And then he dies.
It was all just a huge ego and a deep belief that he's a good person (he is not to be Absolutely Clear).

MY VAL......
Metric - Blindness
Send us a blindfold, send us a blade Tell the survivors help is on the way I was a blind fool, who never complained All the survivors singing in the rain I was the one with the world at my feet Got us a battle Leave it up to me
Wish I could talk about this one in more detail but a lot of it is pretty hefty spoilers since I see this song as being about Valerie at the start of act 2. She makes me so miserable.
📻 valerie
Family Tree - Ethel Cain
I'm just a child, but I'm not above violence My mama raised me better than that When the preacher talks, that man demands his silence And daddy said, "Shoot first, then run and don't look back" So take me down to the river And bathe me clean Put me on the back of your white horse to ride All the way to the chapel, let you wash all over me
This song is very much about Valerie's relationship to Adriel, who took her and her baby sister (Liliana) in after their mother (Madeline) got killed. Valerie had a very rough relationship with her mother before her death, and is trying to be everything for Liliana that her mother wasn't.
And under Adriel's watch, he promises that she can be everything and more, but she needs to work for it, to prove that she's worthy of God's love. It's weird and complicated and messy and my girl needs to get out of there immediately.
13 and 27 for laxo for the ask game
13. What color do they think they look best in? Do they actually look best in that color?
in terms of the human au, laxo could not give less of a shit about fashion LOL, at least not in the beginning. all he'd care about is wearing something that gives him the least amount of dysphoria. so like, covering his body as much as possible.
over time he'd put more effort in, and would think he looks best in greens/blues. and yeah, i'd agree with that!
27. What causes them to feel dread?
ah man this one is gonna be a downer.
when laxo finds that he's starting to care about someone, thats when he starts to feel dread. its part of why he's so aloof and irritable to strangers. everyone he's been close with previously either left him or had something bad happen to them in some fashion, and it's gotten to the point that he thinks there's something inherently rotten within him that no one else can see nor understand. well, no one except for the person who convinced him of that belief in the first place.
