    High Inquisitor My Beloved

    I noticed, NOTICED, her talking about Sieglund (Unjust Depths is a test of my name memorisation skills, the red baron lady yknow) being reliable because she is a "pureblood"... my most conflicted critical support omori-afraid Ulyana's unintentional poking about that was rad, but also I noticed that Gertrude doesn't seem keen to return Elena to the empire. She just planning to keep gf onboard the Iron Lady? Cause I kinda support that. Maybe she will be up for redemption someday? Like she could always stop being a weird racist or whatever c: I feel like, now that her primarily goal is Elena and she's cut off from Erich and the imperium broadly, perhaps her loyalties will waver.

    Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhh Khajida and Siegwhatserface have a paaaast, oooooh!!!! lets-fucking-go

      gertrudeposting

      elena would 100% love to be with gertrude wherever that may be, so if gertrude got her hands on elena she could probably manage that. i wrote a bunch more but realized it had spoilers and implications about stuff, so i will leave it at that

      also yessssss khajida and sieglinde!!! depressed milf war veterans with tension is so good

        And more!

        Would be rad, and as much as I sympathise with Marina I also do respect Elena's attempt to melt her brain with psionics actually. I like that she's showing initiative!

        We love our "mature women" having mech battles to settle old scores, don't we folks?! niko-happy relatedly it's funny how Unjust Depths' narration seems to be carefully dancing around it, using any possible term other than "OOH OOH SAUCY MILFS ON YOUR UNDERCOVER MISSION" no matter how awkward they sound. Normal, lol

          saucy milfs

          i am rooting for elena to get what she wants (and to also figure out what exactly she wants other than gertrude)

          yeah lmao. you love to see it! it would probably work better if it just straight up started calling them milfs, but that's fine

            Milfin'...

            It'd sure be a lot more tasteless... I actually really enjoy that Depths' cast is borderline generational and features a range of ages, it's only slightly awkward as stands that they're all mommy dommies. Three character archetypes in Unjust Depths, sorted by age:

            • early 20something bright eyed and inexperienced optimist!

            • late 20s/early 30s gloomy sadgirl!

            • 40+ uwu step on me mommy!

            It's a special kinda smell.

              milfin makes me feel good

              to be fair there's a lot of variation within said archetypes. like, sieglinde is probably closer in personality to the 30s sadgirl than to khadija

              you are right though

                Yaw...

                It's worthy to note that this isn't inherently a criticism, but there is a pattern emerging. I like Sieglinde more than I thought I would though! Also the bit with Khajida and Shalikova in the simulator, that was very cool much enjoyment.

                  khadija

                  yeah for sure. the pattern is there

                  sieglinde is cool, i like how depressed she is. and yeah that simulator flashback is good. i like their bonding and shalikova learning from the best
