SoS: The Mortal Coil (WIP)

Yeah I saw a mention of it on the tumblr, but how do you get that option?

EDIT: Nevermind I just checked back at the tumblr and it says how to do it there. :slight_smile:

Angst.
Amen.

Yes, the ā€œLeaveā€ option was my agonizing favorite for a reason. I love you, but I’m done with you. Alas, my Gabriel refuses to leave Ramiel. Even if he’s damned her along with him.

The connection that I feel to this story differs from many, many others as all that @Dae-kalina writes, I read. No flight plans set in stone, my character has no fear to be out of character as I find it imperative to traverse all options while the ley lines she lays down for us each gift a unique experience.

As in one specific path, to a specific path wherein Gabby becomes privy to Leoch sketching their beautiful back. Or how a bitter, hurt Gabriel reacts to the fae’s realization that they are in love as opposed to the way an easygoing Gabriel reacts. The quality and detail within is sublimely divine.

I did! I better start searching for that post!

What’s funny is that I picked that option on my first play through but after reading the second paragraph I restarted the game because I didn’t like that option IF ONLY I READ FURTHER ;_;

I had already constructed an appearance for some characters before the official descriptions came out so I’m kinda cheating, maybe? I Dunno lol Leo, Ramiel, (why is it always the ROs I want?!) Daniel and Tedea were so fucking hard to find I almost gave up pff

There’s a master post on @Dae-kalina’s Tumblr with all of the RO’s physical appearances, so that may help with potential fancasts: https://sosthemortalcoil.tumblr.com/post/172218614573/hi-i-know-youve-answered-a-few-question-about

That being said…

There’s only really one choice for my baby here:

About Ryder, I know he has fabulous long blonde hair but like I said I already imagined how some characters look like before the official descriptions came out and he kinda stuck to me as having short black hair I don’t know why lol

So I’m sure this was addressed in an earlier conversation, but I couldn’t find it. So I looked through the male RO options and Michael wasn’t on there. I just really got an RO vibe from Michael’s actions in the play through and I’m just curious as to why Michael’s not a RO

He is a RO he just wasn’t initially. You can find out more about him on the tumblr.

I played through the new fae scene and I quite enjoyed the encounter with Leochlan, even tho I unfortunately won’t experience it in my canon playthrough (as I don’t trust Ramiel enough, especially after having a spear aimed at my neck). If this is a taste of what future romances scenes will be like tho, I imagine they be quite fun as well. ^.^

So I’ve been undecided about ROs, but reading the recent asks on the tumblr I’m really starting to take a liking to Ryder. He seems really sweet and fun, he might end up stealing my Gabriel’s heart. :3

On another topic, anyone else finding their alleged Archangel of God committing a surprising number of cardinal sins on a regular basis? So far I’ve got Wrath, Pride, Lust, Envy and arguably Sloth. :stuck_out_tongue:

I just replayed since the new demo, and I’m loving it. I read through the tumblr and I think I have a better idea of who my Gabriel will be.

I picture her being pretty stunned by the AROF designation. She’s starting to question her place in Heaven now, and her view of her new assignment has gone from ā€œinconvenient, but whateverā€ to ā€œI need a century away from these feather brained jerks.ā€

Leaving Heaven behind won’t cross her mind for a while, but it will eventually. She’s been losing her nesties one by one - Rami falls, Michael did a pivot and seems like he can’t stand her anymore (except for being briefly affectionate in the GAO before running away), so she’s a little clingy with Izzy because he’s all she has left. But eventually she’ll adopt Daniel as real family, not just ā€œI have to watch him because God said so.ā€ Then she’ll start adding her friends to her found family, maybe even Lucifer if he can try to behave as much as possible for the King of Hell. Michael will probably pop a gasket.

On tumblr, @Dae-kalina mentioned binging Disney movies with Daniel, and Lilo and Stitch will ruin my Gabby. Gonna be her first ugly cry.

Meeting Ramiel will be Gabby’s second ugly cry. :grin:

My Gabby isn’t particularly thrilled by the assignment so, following the tutelage of the great Ron Swanson, will there ever be an option to call Daniel by the wrong name so he knows we’re not that close?

I totally want that as well :+1:

Gabriel: Go to bed Dean!
Daniel: Its Daniel…
Gabriel: Yeah whatever Denise.

Snuck in a little update (20+k words for Laniwynn’s route through the fae village. Only one of the options for your sexual experience is currently available; the other two will be coming soon, along with the dancing with both option, followed by the skipping the fae village route, which will be noticeable shorted, and then finally the trial route.)

More like Iain, Karyn, and Ryder. Iro will sleep with any Gabriel, but will only have a relationship (of sorts) with dark Gabriel.

It’s no longer available.

@Bourbon_neat
Michael was always in love with Gabriel, but originally the mc wasn’t going to get the option to romance Michael because Michael’s behavior isn’t really healthy.

It is such a delight to write the awkward fumblings of those two.

There will be much feels when we get there. It’s getting closer. About 1.5 scenes away before we return to the present day.

Lucifer wouldn’t ever ask that of Gabriel. And yes, it was God. Gabriel isn’t that gullible.

@VioletHikari
I have read Strays, but I have zero recollection of that character at all. It’s also been a while since I’ve read it, so if it’s not Feral or Meela, I’m going to draw a complete blank. For me, Leo is more like an overeager puppy with some moments of mature confidence–if he survives.

But to Lucifer, they aren’t family. They aren’t even the same species. His human-hybrid offspring are just distractions, pawns at best, rabid dogs at worst. He’s not rejecting them because that would mean that they have to first register as something of meaning to him. It’s not a conscious deliberate decision; to Lucifer, it just is. If he wasn’t allowed to be a parent to the one child he considered his, why would he even think that being a father to the hybrids is a thing? And he would never hate Gabriel, never fear.

Sort of. From a selection.

@Quaintrelle

I wonder if I have tipped my hand too soon. There are certain truths in your wonderings, though I will not confirm which are valid and which are just rumor.

It will certainly be an interesting balancing act, and at times Gabriel may feel stretched too thin by the pair.

More salt will be available for pouring on Ramiel’s emotional wounds before he Falls.

Ah, this comment soothes my anxious muse. I’m so glad that all the variations I write out feel worth-wile (since forward progress is often delayed by writing out parallel paths).

I do like to throw in surprises on occasion. I am, of course, biased, but I recommend reading through selected options. No one dies as a result of your choices… yet.

And yay! @cookiemonsta Love the fancast (though I cannot see Joe Manganiello as anything other than Alcide Herveaux, and my vision of Ryder does not quite align with yours :smile:) Your Gabby is absolutely adorable.

@A.L.Plurabelle
That fancast is uncannily good.

@Cherry_Summer
Ahhhh! They’re all so lovely! Thanks for sharing them :heart:

Sweet and fun aren’t the first words I would use to describe Ryder… but if you like guys who want to serve up the world to you on a platter, he’s your man warlock.

And really, it’s the degree of the sin that would have the Council marking it as a Cardinal sin. No one expects the angels to be perfectly squeaky clean, as long as Heaven’s dirty laundry is kept behind closed doors.

Hmmm, we’ll see. My intention was more for them to keep calling Daniel as ā€˜hey you’ or ā€˜child’–not even bothering with a name.
