STeve assumes A brought him there to be Z's pet and to find extra ways to be sadistic to Z at this exact moment

Adjustments will be mad but yanno

...adjustments will be made though mad may also apply

I mean

NOT A BAD THEORY

right now 'what god has that power' and he's just like

I'm in hell

I can think of one

but ok you keep not thinking of it

and i sure as shit am not saying it aloud inside his HOUSE

fully isnt and it's so funny

sometimes you need an outside perspective u.u

the chains are what did him in

also tbf the ooc assumption is they're going to have sex and a's going to be smug

deeply

...I. Don't tell me

DO NOT TELL ME

But I can't wait to find out what Z's reaction to that smug is eventually

OH HE SURE WILL HAVE ONE

I AM EXCITED

Aerith assumes that Zerxus has no work/life balance because it feels almost like a healer requirement at this point

lmao i mean she's not wrong

he did USED to have one. a very long time ago

Oh Zerxus

this is not an RP assumption but apparently reddit clocked some hints that Z might now be team Vecna?????? and I want to talk about that because omg what

OH YEAH he said the "we are his blood" line to yenk

Personally, I'm thinking he's pulling a triple betrayal here and will take Arkhan's place in the final fight

which I could be hilariously wrong about, but I doubt that either 1. Zerxus could ally with Vecna without Asmodeus noticing, or 2. Asmodeus would genuinely help Vecna ascend

I was about to float theory 4 which is that he thinks he's fooling Asmodeus but isn't, but I have to believe he's wised up since Calamity-era lmao

I have to believe that, buddy

look even in calamity he wasn't trying to FOOL asmodeus

he was so much dumber than that

and now he's known that motherfucker for hundreds of years

if he's still dumb, which i fully believe in my heart

it's in very different ways

yes I think that is very likely

and lbr: vecna is an asshole mage, it wouldn't

offend ANY of zerxus's sensibilities to fuck with that guy
