Took me some time but here is your Verstave serotonin delivery @Serya_chan
I loved the idea of Gustave being railed in G major way too much and so did Verso I guess.

@VersoVerse@snuggetfish Ugh I love this. It literally looks like he’s been stitching the coat back together for his whole time on the continent…. Beautiful work to snuggerfish!
I think Verso’s skill “PERFECTION” is the weight of the expectations and pressure he has carried, translated directly into the combat system itself.
His rank rises when he dodges or parries enemy attacks, or keeps up a relentless offense. But it is only when he reaches the highest rank, S, and maintains it, that Verso truly comes into his own.
That feels deeply tied to the expectations Aline placed on him, and to the crushing pressure to always be perfect. For Verso, strength may never have been just about having the power to defeat his enemies. It may have meant never showing weakness, never breaking, and always remaining the best version of himself. Only by doing so could he meet his mother’s expectations, and repay the love she had given him.
The fact that even a character’s combat mechanics can carry this much narrative weight says so much about how meticulously layered the writing, foreshadowing, and worldbuilding are. That level of detail is exactly what makes Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 feel even more brilliant.
