![]() ![]() ![]() Great chapter |
![]() ![]() ![]() Illya’s sadistic nature is beautiful, thanks for showing it off |
![]() ![]() ![]() Good work. I'm excited to see how this plays out. Ignore all the people screeching for death. They just want edge. Shirou obviously wouldn't let that happen to thieves of all people. |
![]() ![]() Stupid as all fucking hell. I give zero shits about Illya doing that but them, or more specifically Torchwork escaping? That is purely hand waved BS to keep them active to continue on a certain line of plot. If you can't write without doing that then know in advance you are writing shit. No lie at all I was hyped and loving it and then that happened and my hype boner died a sudden grisly death all over what amounts to regurgitated BS that it seems every single fucking author does as they don't have the know how or balls to simply remove named characters. If the next chapter doesn't have him dead or worse I call bullshit. Now if it does? That is something else entirely and I would not only greatly enjoy it but my respect for your work would rise. Wonder which this will be? Yet another author failing to move away from canon and killing named characters as they simply are incapable of not using those crutches? Or will you expand those wings to truly soar? |
![]() ![]() ![]() I have been following this particular piece of fanfic for quite some time. I am very pleased that you've picked up this work once again after all these years and appear committed to updates. The divergence of the story from the canon is promising, and I expect many great things in the future. Greek: I assume you'll be using Ancient Greek instead of its modern counterpart. [εγκαταλείψτε τον Ἄψυρτος] I translated this as "[He/She/It - implied] Abandon the ? [!]" As "εγκαταλείπω" is the base form of leave (or abandon in certain connotations), the form that you've written down is a past/aorist imperative [So, like, REALLY forcing a command]. Adding an "-s/-ϛ" would remove the "-π" and replace it as a "-ψ" would indicate the future/past, and adding the "-τε" would indicate the imperative. I have no idea what the last word is, but feel free to look up a dictionary for that. Keep in mind, also, that [Ancient] Greek has very gendered words, so we know that the article "τον" would imply that the succeeding word is masculine and whatnot. Otherwise, good luck out there |
![]() ![]() ![]() Kill him. kill her. kill them.(chanting 10x) |
![]() ![]() ![]() Super cool chapter, can't wait for more! |
![]() ![]() NOICE |
![]() ![]() ![]() Damn Ilya is just savage. This side of her's is rarely shown off. I am impressed |
![]() ![]() ![]() I admit, I am curious on one detail. The Dust was ordered & the call given. Was it delivered? I also attempted to get a coffee, but it did not accept my card. I may try again when I am not frustrated by the broken attempts. Keeps saying I did something wrong. When the thing will not accept. You may have trouble. Thank you for sharing. |
![]() ![]() ![]() Huh...this is interesting... was kind of hoping for "Who the hell do you think I am?!"... |
![]() ![]() ![]() I'm happy to see this story updating again. In celebration I re-read the entire fic. I have a few questions. Is Illya the new Winter Maiden? I had assumed that her and Shirou had arrived in Remnant in the safe house of the previous Winter Maiden which had devolved into a fight between them where Shirou ended up killing her to save Illya. The dream Ruby had where Illya's voice was the harbinger of a snowstorm seemed to confirm it. At least I had thought so until this chapter where you revealed another magic user from Fate world, given the Greek I'm assuming Medea which makes me question just what timeline they're in as I'd been assuming it was a variant of HF due to the arm, but Medea was long dead by the point Shirou got that so now I'm confused again. On the off-chance that Illya is the new maiden, how would that affect someone who already has magic. Did she just get a power boost and a new affinity for ice spells or does the maiden power exist as a separate source of magic. Given Raven having her bird magic I'd assume the latter but she doesn't appear to be using it much so far (admittedly this may be due to the fact that this is the first time she's fought anyone thus far and Illya essentially wiped the floor with them before Torchwick used whatever that was that created the werewolf demon thing) Hope to see this story continue so I can learn the answers. Keep up the good work. |
![]() ![]() ![]() As long twitards don't come running and demanding the MA rating (before it was utterly destroyed that is), the T rating for now should suit it just fine. Anyway, it's been awhile since I've seen sadist Ilya. I've been exposed too much on prisma ilya I kinda forgot she's supposed to be a somewhat deranged child. |
![]() ![]() ![]() I'm just going take a stab and say Circe, as she was the first thing that came to my head of a Greek myth involving turning people into beasts. |
![]() ![]() ![]() Yay for angry Shirou :P Thanks for the update :) |
