Hollow knight is a good adventure. I found Nine Sols to be s short and sweet 2D sekiro soulslike. What's interesting about Nine Sols, they weren't afraid to make experimental choices in the level design.

It depends on your opinions on the Metroidvania genre. Apparently giant maze-like maps where you rub your stupid face against every wall in search of secrets and trudge through places that could have been easily made 3 times smaller with no loss in the WOW factor to be the golden standard of the genre - Nine Sols is worse. It's short and sweet and without obnoxiously obscure secrets and it doesn't overstay its welcome. This is the kind of game people who say they want shorter games think about. Hollow Knight and similar metroidvanias, menawhile, are the kind of games people who calculate vidya value through the playtime-hours-per-hour ratio.

>>714119543
No clue. It was a hit so I'd be surprised if they didn't try to capitalize on it.

The very thing that gives them power is what kills them, there's no way to stop their demise and the only "cure" was essentially taking away their power and regressing as a species.
I can understand why some people don't like how the true end has you essentially genociding an entire race of people, a decision unilaterally made by Yi, but the good times for the solarians were long gone, this was mercy.

Nothing stays perpetually good. Letting a good thing stay good instead of stretching it into sequels and spinoffs and prequels and alternate universes and multiverses and shit is just a slow creative suicide.

>>714121739
It's not about more, it has to be well done. But an exploration based game where every corner of the world has rewards waiting for you will never feel like actual exploration. That's why a large scale is necessary (among other things) to produce the sensation that you're actually exploring the world, rather than going through a game map checking boxes.

This, I mean what was Eigong going to do? Force him into the experiments? Fucker can summon black holes on a whim and was actively holding back during the fight with Yi. If Eigong tried fighting him, she'd end up as a red smear on the wall of the Ancient Stone Pillar.

>>714122450
You explore places. Metroidvanias make levels, not places. And the more you start rubbing your stupid face against every wall - the more you are reminded that you're secret-hunting in a videogame instead of traversing a vast beautiful expanse of a fascinating world.

It's a pointless categorization since games within the same genre can do different things.

I agree about the wall-hugging, but again that's something to improve on for every particular game, not a result of some inherent design philosophy flaw, and the best illustration of this point is that "wall-hugging" is MUCH more prominent in level-based metroidvanias compared to more "open world" style stuff.

>>714124572
You see her in the ending but it was missed opportunity to have Yi run into her after his character development and awkwardly try to brush her aside.
>Yi, was that Goumang?!
>... No, she's too short...

>>714124746
>It's a pointless categorization since games within the same genre can do different things.
There is concept known to your species under the name of "conventional". The 2D metroidvania that comes closest to making places instead of levels is Nine Sols because it engages with the conventional approach less.

Open world metroidvanias like what?

>>714125020

>The 2D metroidvania that comes closest to making places instead of levels is Nine Sols because it engages with the conventional approach less
I don't really know what you mean either by this or by the words "places" and "levels", because by any normal person's understanding, Nine Sols is extremely "level-ish". This has been a common talking point since day 1 when the game came out. So if you're trying to make some esoteric contrarian gigabrained point you'll have to actually elaborate.

>Open world metroidvanias like what?
Hollow Knight and Rain World are the two most prominent ones in this style, the latter especially. They're not completely open world the way 3D games in said genre are, but they lean closer to that style of world as compared with more classic vania-adjacent stuff (and things like Nine Sols as well).

Nine Sols is, in fact, levelish. The bite-sized nature of the levels helps not rub it into your face too much before you're done with the level. That's why I think its structure is better. Scale works for immersion. And neither 9s nor HK are immersive. So just trim the fat.
>Hollow Knight and Rain World are the two most prominent ones in this style, the latter especially.
Rain World is not a metroidvania by any reasonable stretch of imagination and if HK is as level based as it gets. If HK is open world - every metroidvania is open world.

NTA, but wouldn't Ji saying that contradict his bastardized version of Lear's "Inaction Declaration" philosophy?

Like you said, a response like that would essentially be him confessing he didn't want to sit around and watch his kind die slowly so he intervened and sped things up, which would invalidate his entire "I don't meddle directly with mortal affairs anymore" spiel.

I'm not saying Ji isn't a hypocrite, he just doesn't seem stupid or arrogant to enough to out himself as one that easily.

>>714122154
If I recall correctly, the disease was so ingrained in every solarian that manually removing it from their genome resulted in normal dumb short-lived cats. Shit was fucked before the events of the game even began. The best thing Yi could do is not kill off the only other sapient life form in however many light years from Penglai and spare his race from turning into mindless mutants scraping their weird thorns against the walls of their fucked up space colony.
The bad end involves still enslaving the race of the boy you just spent the game bonding with while you slowly die from the disease you still can’t fucking cure.

>>714135271
>If I recall correctly, the disease was so ingrained in every solarian that manually removing it from their genome resulted in normal dumb short-lived cats. Shit was fucked before the events of the game even began.
The gene that evolved them was somehow tied with the disease. The disease itself only came to be when Eigong started fucking with Ji's genes. If Eigong didn't try to reverse-engineer Ji's immortality - the species would have been fine.

>>714133167
The problem with this explanation is that the game explicitly states Ji came to Eigong (not the other way around) additionally entirely of his own volition, in the hopes she could devise a way to kill him.

So either Ji was somehow unable to figure out Eigong wasn't going to hold up her end of the bargain, even though he can literally see into the future, or he KNEW this wouldn't end well and yet still handed himself over to her despite being aware of the consequences.

Once again, not trying to argue, i'm just fascinated by this huge hole in the otherwise airtight writing I seem to have found.

>>714132583

>>714127415

>>714138948
I didn't actually know he came to her. I appreciate that information, it throws my already flimsy theory all the way out the window.
How stable is his precognition? He appeared surprised when he divined Yi's future, as if he didn't expect Autism Cat to be the ender of his life. Perhaps he has the Dune syndrome in a different way - limited vague nonsense precognition that doesn't tell him how it came to be or what can be done to avoid it?

>>714126414
>noo the areas have names and different theming so they are levels!!!
Even if I think HK isn’t the perfect expression of a metroidvania (that would be La Mulana) its obviously set up as places, as you put it, instead of levels. Besides being tied to the world and lore, most of the areas have multiple points of interest that aren’t accessible all at once, until you have the proper upgrade, and you’d pass through them multiple times, like a place, instead of a level. When talking about levels, I’d think about something being “one and done” like Mario levels or Megaman levels. Nine Sols surely is more levelish, but imo it isn’t a metroidvania, its just an action platformer, nothing wrong with that label.

>>714119145
Is it shameful that I didn't beat her and just watched the ending on YT

>>714142232
Ji probably has to be in front of someone to specifically predict THEIR future, so he couldn't know shit about what Eigong would do before he met her. That's what I'm going with.

>>714148646
Yi is a voluntary celibate.

>just kill yourself

>>714151671
>Responsible for the death of the rest of his species

No, I think in this case it wasn't exactly voluntary.

The game didn't do the old hide the secrets in the ass of random corners of the map, instead it used enemy encounters, enemies that you could tackle early on the game, or later when you get stronger.

I honestly liked that a lot, the game played to its strengths, and it's not like it's lacking in secrets or lore to be found, it just handles it differently how it lets you access it.

Fantastic game, one of the best metroidvanias for sure.

>>714101180 (OP)
You cried to this pathetic excuse for a story?

Nine Sols basically goes "oh, you find this anthropomorphic female character attractive? Wait until you see how horribly it ends for her."

>>714134835
I personally prefer NS but I don't think it's fair to directly compare the two when it comes to story. It didn't really set out to tell a coherent story or have characters with arcs. Lore vs. story

>>714150804
The final conundrum I bring up is Ji's immortality.

He's been around since the beginning of his race, and has likely hung around every type of person you can think of. Not to mention, he himself states that in ancient times powerful Solarians would come from all over Penglai to try and coax him or someone from his clan into divining their futures.

Not to assume, but you'd think a guy with that much experience with people would be able to sniff those who mean well versus those like Eigong who are just looking to use him for his abilities (or in her case, his cells).

Then again, maybe i'm giving him too much credit.

He's a future seer, not a a mind reader after all.

Wawa

>>714158150
>He's been around since the beginning of his race
Where is that implied? He's old but he's not that old

>>714158854
I could easily be wrong, but i'm pretty sure there he makes a passing statement about that in one of his interactions with Yi.

That, plus it seems to be implied by his final speech where he lists off all of the ancient crap he
witnessed, but as you said, it might not be that ancient.

Besides, my point still stands. He's existed long enough and presumably dealt with enough ill-intentioned opportunists he should've at least been able recognize a bad apple like Eigong.

Got to the point where fatcat bro makes me pick solarians or apemen before fighting eigong.
Do I get locked with the one I pick or I can finish game and then pick other choice so I can get both endings?
Btw wish me luck...

>>714163202
literally the end of the game, the program made a backup save before you met the hag for the first time
unironically pick solarians first, the boss fight has nothing new to offer if you go apeman ending then solarian

>>714163202
You get to go back before the point of no return replaying your file post credits so you can always choose either

>>714163365
>>714163407
Neat! Thank you very much!

>>714163013
I actually like it, makes the game flow better. I also like games with more exploration, but I don't think I want nine sols to be one

So, was Yi autistic?

Nine Sols is more than a year old

>>714165363
I feel like if he was the Devs would’ve confirmed it by now. They did for other things like Lady E and Xiaho being a thing.

>>714158150
Ji is completely aware of everything that’s going on, he just doesn’t care. You’re trying to rationalize his behavior as a thinking human being, but Ji is less of a person and more of an embodiment of certain ideas. He is able to predict the future, but helpless to do anything to change it, so he just goes along with it to see what the universe has decided the outcome should be. He is the embodiment of wu wei, inaction / effortless action. Not inaction as in “pacifism” or “idleness” but inaction as in “not resisting the universal pattern”

>>714165363
He was just a chud with manlet syndrome, it's not so complicated

>>714155401
I wouldn’t trust people who don’t find the story sad. Learning how poorly Yi treated Heng in their final meeting retroactively turns every message and flashback with her into a gut punch.

Nine Sols is a brilliant game that everynyan should have access to

DLC idea

i mean this game was okay. like, mid-okay. fat woman butterfly boss was interesting, and maybe some others too.

>>714166693
I appreciate you gave it a chance

>>714166092
>Snapping Eigong's neck like a stick of bamboo before she started research on immortality wouldn't change the future

I'm not trying rationalize his behavior, I'm just trying to understand why he willingly decided to hand himself over to Eigong when according to you, he knew the consequences would be disastrous for his people AND it wouldn't grant him his "long awaited death".

*For another roughly 500 years.

>>714167536
>AND it wouldn't grant him his "long awaited death"
But it did, ultimately. What happened happened, and couldn’t have happened any other way no matter how much one might struggle against the flow of the universe

>>714167536
>why he willingly decided
This is where you’re getting confused. He’s not an active agent in his own life, he’s a leaf on the wind. He saw that he would do it in a vision, so he went with it. shrimple as that

>>714167658
>Hurr durr I'm gonna willingly help invent the Solarian equivalent of Necromorphs so a midget can kill me in 500 years, when I could literally just ask the midget to kill me right now, and if he isn't up to it, instead ask a murderous psychopath like Jiequan who additionally has all sorts of crap to kill people with at his disposal

Are you seriously telling me there wasn't ANY other path Ji could've taken to die that didn't involve the creation of Tianhuo mutants?

>>714168271
I think what they were doing with Ji’s character was just a bit too high minded for you, sorry brother. I recommend reading the Zhuangzi

>>714167807

>Hurr durr I'm gonna ALLOW the creation of the Solarian equivalent of Necromorphs so a midget can kill me in 500 years, when I could literally just ask the midget to kill me right now, and if he isn't up to it, instead ask a murderous psychopath like Jiequan who additionally has all sorts of crap to kill people with at his disposal

No matter how you slice it, Ji is either insane or unbelievably shortsighted despite knowing the frickin' future

>>714168271
There was, but by his own admission, he literally has no desire to alter fate. The few people he befriended and had investment in all died, the only thing truly motivating him to act being the preservation of the grotto which he promised someone dear to him he would do. How negotiations went about is unconfirmed, but I wouldn't be surprised if the only reason he was ever motivated to help Eigong was because she planned to travel into space to preserve Solarians, and was willing to trade his subservience to her in exchange for the safety of the one thing he cherished, much like how other Solarian nobles wanted their treasures to be brought on the ship.

He can claim to not care how life turns out, but even Ji wanted his memories of those he loved to never die.

>>714168641
>A bit too high-minded

>>714121838
>>714135271
Why didn't they just replace the tianhuo gene with whatever gave apemen their sapience?

>>714167536
>why he willingly decided to hand himself over to Eigong
Maybe he saw it in a vision/prophecy that following Eigong would lead him to what he desired?

>>714166585
bit about the story felt strangely intense. I guess it was the music

>>714168803
This guy has given me the explanation I've been looking for, and all without saying I need to read defeatist gobbledygook to understand him

it all makes sense now

>>714169520
And how do you know you're right?

Opinions are like the preferred method of going down on Ji's asshole, everyone has one

>>714168271
You’re being way too reductive about his character. If all Ji wanted was to die, then he could easily kill himself. Everything he does is in accordance with the dao. The dao gave him a time and place to die, and he embraced it. The dao gave him time to live and participate in history, and he embraced it. The dao provided Solarians with prosperity and intelligence, and then took it away from them, and he embraced it. Ji is a master of the Dao, he’s not a mere mortal with a tiny narrow view of the world, and quibbling little motivations. Things like propriety and morality are irrelevant to him. All of his life, he lived by the Dao and became completely immersed in it, so when the Dao decided it was time for it all to end, regardless how how horrifying it may seem to a normal mortal, he accepted it.

>>714166585
>master xi
wasn't he the reason they had problems in the past?

>>714170121
>The dao gave him a time and place to die, and he embraced it
Even if he knew where he was goign to die, he did not embrace it. He literally says he lacks the courage to kill himself. Why he'd rather die by the hand of another is unclear, but it is what it is. He's still an immortal in mortal flesh.

>>714170121
>T. Ji

>>714170391
He didn't want to be alone even in his final moments.

>>714170550
That is a good interpretation

my favorite touch about solarians is they don't do the furry thing of giving themselves special names like cat kind or whatever, they straight up refer to themselves as humans/people.

Did he have a death wish?

>>714174630
I think she basically couldn't cope with the fact that she doomed all solarians by creating cat aids through gene fuckery, and thus after trying to right her wrong for hundreds of years deluded herself into thinking that "no guise this is the immortality we strove for and the next step in evolution".

Remember, her boss theme is called "my will is our truth".

>>714174517
>How can a lady show her face in such a posture
Unironically what did he mean by this

>>714174630

She made triggered the Tianhou outbreak which is what causes the solarians to die and sprout flowers. She then used Ji’s DNA to make a cure only make the virus even worse as we saw with Fuxi and the remaining cats.

>Even if I think HK isn’t the perfect expression of a metroidvania (that would be La Mulana) its obviously set up as places, as you put it, instead of levels.
It might be set up as places, but it fails at it. The overwhelming majority of metroidvanias is set up as "places" in your definition, as in the levels are themed after a location in the setting, but that's not what I'm talking about. They don't feel like places. They feel artificial. They feel built to be played in a videogame.

What does mentioning a literal mandatory part of the genre bring to this conversation? Do you have literally any idea what you're talking about?

Well stop thinking about that, that's dumb.
>Nine Sols surely is more levelish, but imo it isn’t a metroidvania, its just an action platformer, nothing wrong with that label.
Okay, you're straight up oblivious. Yeah, nevermind, this conversation is over.

Heng is NOT FAT!

I'm convinced that Xia women are the pinnacle of Solarian beauty

>>714158150
Sapient creatures have a limited capacity for absorbing experience and learning from it. There are humans out there who live their entire lives out without learning that racism is natural, normal, and optimal. Worse yet, those humans already have that knowledge "recorded" as generational knowledge, so it's extra embarassing that they don't manage to learn it.

Ji was most likely either careless, a midwit, or both, and never bothered to (or couldn't) pick up on people's behaviors and mannerisms and speech patterns to figure out their ulterior motives. After all, pretty much all characters in the game are no more than midwits, including Yi and Eigong, AKA the reddit scientists, who borderline worship their very limited knowledge as a religion while refusing to entertain the thought that the universe around them might have things in it they can't explain. Not because those things are unexplainable magic, but because they have not yet made the right discoveries to rationalize them and pick up on their patterns within the natural order. And the main reason for this is the story authors themselves are midwits. One cannot write a character more clever them oneself, after all.

Ji waiting for Yi in the Grotto of Scriptures:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4Jog1B_as7Q

(Imagine him swapping between his child and adult form)

>>714176446
Might have something to do with the the fact that she's walking at all. What I assume that comic is about is her getting prosthetics to walk around because her real feet went through foot-binding - an excrutiating procedure where a woman's feet get literally broken and contorted into a grotesque triangle shape in a pathetic and aesthetically revolting attempt to make them look more dainty and feminine. The result of having two permanently broken and horrifically mishapen feet is you not being able to walk. That said, it's also a symbol of status - you can afford to mutilate yourself and spend the rest of your life not being able to walk, because your servants will be doing everything walking related for you while you sit in your arse doing nothing.
I suspect the original dialog had something to do with that - her being able to prance around on two normal feet instead of showing off her grotesque bulbous stumps to scream "look at me, I'm a high society woman!" goes against her high status and makes it less clear that she is richer than you and always will be.

>>714179824

>>714173367
In that scene in the true ending, I expected Yo to collapse at his sister’s feet or hug her or something to that effect. It may have been out of character but it would have been impactful.

>>714182913
I don't think Fuxi would be that aggressive towards him about sisterfucking. Nuwa on the other hand...

>>714179824
Where is she from? The comics?

>>714181881
By farting. Why do you think she doesn't wear any underwear

>>714183569
I think he would, given he once sent a man to Jiequan's torture basement for even daring to insult Nuwa (or at least this was heavily implied in the game). I imagine he would not take kindly to his follow Sol acting as if wanting to fuck one of there own is wrong since it makes there relationship look worse.

>>714181639

>>714183898
There's a difference between insinuating that incest is wrong and insulting a man's imuoto, the former is considered common sense for most people (plebs) while the latter is a vile crime

>true end
>turns out Heng's codec talks weren't just Yi's hallucinations/guilt trips

Damn...

>>714177973
Yi probably convinced the rest of the council to have him around as a "pet" at first then the rest of the team found his intelligence to be useful in an assortment of decisions so they probably made him the apeman ambassador for the council I reckon in this comic.

>>714184169
>the former is considered common sense for most people (plebs) while the latter is a vile crime
True but I doubt Fuxi would be happy about being looked down on by (and this would be even funnier when it comes from Yi) who's basically a former commoner. So imagine there be at least some resentment behind closed doors. Also, Fuxi and Nuwa don't seem to mind having their questionable relationship on full display, and given there both royals, I doubt they care about it the vile crime part.

I think I agree. 9S was fantastic and I definitely want more, but it also feels like it really closed the door on the world.
The best you could have would be a prequel (like >>714174665) but I think it would be very hard to make it live up to the expectations. 9S got a lot of mileage out of introducing all the worldbuilding, which a prequel wouldn't be able to do since we already learned so much lore; and 9S got a ton of its impact from how fatalistic the story is, which again a prequel wouldn't be able to cover - we basically already know how their entire species ends, even a really epic war isn't going to quite live up to that.

>>714189458
I would whole heartedly take a new furry metroidvania from them that doesn't end in the furry race being obliterated from existence. I don't think I can take it a second time, you can keep the fucked up shit tho.

There’s something feverish in her, something sick burning behind her eyes.

I wonder if she and him were amiable or his friendship with Yi burnt that bridge.

>>714148646
Apeman bros you think I could score here?

So the biggest contribution to video games taiwan has is Sexo cat game.

The biggest contribution of taiwan to videogames is all the fucking hardware

>>714201615
Only chink webnovels I read were I shall seal the heavens and reverend insanity, didn't finish either although I got close with ISSTH. The repetition just wears me out eventually.

>>714101180 (OP)
I wonder if you're allowed to play this in China

>>714200441
Wanted to wring the little bastard's neck after reading that

I am not a furry nor gay, but goddamn. How is he doing it?

>>714201960
she’d do that anyways, she’s been starving for weeks

>>714202440
>I am not a furry nor gay, but
a tale as old as time

>>714192632
So he was Jietong and Jiequan's concubine, right? Bro couldn't get enough of that Jie cock, and the moment the last Jie died is the moment he said "yeah ok time to die too".

>>714202440
>I am not a furry nor gay, but

>>714203083
>So he was Jietong and Jiequan's concubine, right?
There's a reason Jietong had a lack of other descendants, and Jiequan had no kids. You can thank Ji for that.

Fu fu~
Anyone know what the greeting he says is? Sounds kinda like "sha in"

I liked the game quite a bit, but the fanbase is getting obnoxious.

>>714202440

>>714198410
Little Solarians deserve headpats

>>714203083
It was over the moment Yi came into the picture

>>714202440
He looks like apemen want to fuck him.

>>714205235
Wtf Yi, look what you did to the picture you disgusting freak! >>714203592

>>714202440
You are very much a gay. I am not gay and I have zero lust for Ji - unlike, say, Goumang or Heng.

>>714192632
Reminder that Ji's jade claws aren't part of his anatomy, they're just like shiny green Bugles chips he stuck on his fingers.

>>714206812
>Ji's shiny green bulges

And Lear. Guy was a slut for powerful men.

>>714101180 (OP)
What's wrong with the fandom of this game? After I beat the final boss I checked out reddit and it was basically an homosexual underground, nobody actually talking about the game or the story, only degenerate furries.

>>714207330
It's mostly heterosexual furry lust to be fair.
But to answer your question, basically all the story and gameplay discussion has been thoroughly covered, so all that's left to do now is talk about which cats you wanna fuck the most.

>>714207634
For me it's, in order of preference
>goumang
>goumang and fudie
>goumang (forma no pajarraca)
>yandere fudie
>fudie

>nuwa (not that i don't like her, but her fucked up feet weird me out and also I don't want to be pulled appart limb by limb by fuxi)

>>714207634
ngl she was kind of hot when she went schizo

>>714209950
I prefer her when she's chill, I wanna hang out with her in the baths even if no sex is involved (I would like sex though)

>>714123272
I have nothing to add to the conversation, this fanart is just funny

>>714210710
she'd be chill 90% of the time and then has a mental breakdown due to BPD

>>714168641
>I think what they were doing with Ji’s character was just a bit too high minded for you

>>714215389
>>714215438
indeed

>>714213560
Go home Yi, your sister is waiting for you
Tfw Yi and Heng will never raise Shuanshuan together. I need a spinoff series about all the characters living together in a village

>>714215227
Then die

>>714175760
>being retarded
lol

>>714216589
DELET THIS!

>>714166585
holy kino. Made me buy the stupid game. Was staying away cause of fury fags

>>714217227
only for her

>>714217401
no

>>714217478
>“So are you.” He holds her hand, fingers clasping tightly around the back of her palm as she grasps their shared cup.

>“But you—” She finds herself choked. Her tongue wrestles with the entirety of everything she wants to say, everything she wants him to know. How much she loves him. How much he matters. How good he smells…

>“You…” He guides her hand to set the cup down, gentle. His fingers free hers to tangle and mingle with his, to hold her tight as he holds her eyes, genuine. Gentle. “Matter, so much more.”

>Tears threaten to burst over the dam behind her eyes, a lurch in her chest that pushes her up closer. So close, she can smell his breath; overwhelmingly scented with plum wine, and something else… tart, chemical, clinical. Curiosity creeps up in the back of her head, whispering. How would he taste, then? She licks her lips, and he sees.

>“That’s not true.” Wet in the corners of her eyes. “Yi, you—you matter.” She needs him to know. The fingers on his shoulder clench in the cloth of his robes, twisting and pulling tight. “You’re gonna save us all.” Her fingers squeeze his palm, and he squeezes back, holds her hand tight in his. “Won’t you at least do what’s right for you? My big brother…” Something shameful builds in her. Something like greed, envy, something sinful. She doesn’t want to let go. She doesn’t want to give him up.

>>714214428
Yi really should have brought his high chair for that meeting.

Now that we got a taopunk game when are we getting confucianismpunk and legalismpunk games?

Heng makes Yi wear pretty sissy dresses

>>714219340
Fudie’s girlfriend was a shorty like Yi so she might actually be into him just because of the height diff

>Yi's deep connection to the tao/roots is basically against his own will and temperament and only happened because his sister interceded on his behalf
Nepotism.

>>714101180 (OP)
they cute

i should have followed that ji artist

>>714220092
>Both Xiaohe and Yi were shorter than LE by a good portion.
>Both wear skin-tight outfits from time to time.
She got a type that's for sure.

>>714220339
Time for hot glue

>>714211647
What kind of question is that, anyway? What do normal people use to practice kissing?

>>714221206

>>714221275
Where is this piece from??

>>714221275
Heng what did I tell you about eating beetroot soup

>>714221632
no clue

>>714213543
cutie fudie

>>714220487
He must've been in good shape from all his fangshi training, couldn't blame her for noticing

>>714220132
To be fair, Heng probably didn't know at that time, considering she was too busy sobbing her eyes out.

>>714220132
Eh, he does seem to meditate and hold to some principles of taoism to do with self control and whatnot. Probably just due to practical reasons but still.

>>714224091
what did she say

Can we please stop with the incest posting? Incest is wrong.

>>714225058
>haha I get to fuck my brother but you don't get to fuck your sister

>>714225228
SILENCE

>>714223379
He does have a rather defined back when he strips naked to get into the spring. Wonder how dangerous the little manlet could have been had he not suffered a nigh fatal injury that stunted his growth. The sols are basically fighting an overeducated child.

>>714215112
very cute pic

How do you think Heng would get along with the new kunlun girls?

>oh cool a ninesols thread
>its 99% gay furries
aw man

>>714227035
I know, right? We just can't seem to hit that last percent despite our best efforts.

>>714226805
She’d be either imprisoned in jiequan’s funtime dungeon or ostracized because of her relation to the "traitor" Yi. She’d have fusang to keep her company at least….

>>714227151
I meant under peaceful conditions...

>>714227035
Hey, most hornyposting is straight

>>714227035
they weren't like that already?
>>714226805
depends on what you mean. She already knows Eigong, at least on a professional level. She'd probably get along fairly well with Fudie. Nuwa and Goumang are where conflict might happen, but for different reasons.

>>714227206
They’d think she’s weird with the talk about roots and accepting death, Lady E is the only one who’d Heng has a friend outside of Kuafu and Yi.

>>714227035
Doesn't count if it's ji

>>714226805
She'd get along well with Lady Ethereal. They're both nice and easygoing.
The rest are too headstrong/girlbossy.

>>714227035
im the 1% hetero for goumang and eilong

>>714226805
Imagine her reaction to Nuwa

>>714209950

>>714228696
Get Ethereal away from that whore Toriel

>>714202440
he's just that good

>>714228673

>>714229259
would certainly be an experience

>>714228861
oh no he's learning to top

>>714223136
I love that image so much.
>>714223379
If anything, it just means she got a good eye for handsome men with good work training.

>>714223136
>eat MY burger will you?

>>714232967
>becomes hotter after beating
She got the same kink as Jiequan. Right down to the fact it made her stronger.

>>714232967
>I don't care if your feet hurt, get on the treadmill NOW

>>714234449
>Yi trying to make LE thin.
He truly was a bigger evil to this world than Jiequan or his family bloodline.

>>714232486
If you take off that green ring what happens?

>>714238328
I'm halfway sure he dies, but really it's probably just there to protect his heart from more damage from outside forces.

Where the fuck is Yi's mouth

>>714238328
it would be extremely painful

>>714239919
>Where the fuck is Yi's mouth
In the clear air dimension, been there ever since he was young. Helps clear his lungs from all the smoking.

>>714240020
>it would be extremely painful
It will make him a great hero, then?

>>714239919
His mouth got blown up in that accident when he was young, so now he talks, breathes, smokes and drinks through his nostrils.

>>714219823
>Heng makes Yi wear pretty sissy dresses
Finally, something that Nuwa and she have in common.

Yi doesnt have a mouth
he cant lick off Heng

>>714232967

>>714244464
He can give her little kisses with his butthole, in typical feline fashion
