    Ok cool! I'll link my epic Jasdevi fic Cradle of Time and let the summary speak for itself. This is my fic with the most plot and emotions. I will say I got Miranda's powers kind of wrong, oops.

      Saved! I'll try to read it as soon as I can. And don't worry about it, I'm sure my interpretation of Miranda's powers isn't exactly correct either?

        No hurry, if you read it at all I'll be delighted! There isn't much interest in Noah fics in 2024. Or any side character fics, really.

        Your writing of Miranda's powers seems accurate to me! I'm not a Miranda expert though. At least I remembered while writing my fic that she can't perma-resurrect people, and their injuries come back.

        I'll keep reading Empire of Dark Music and see where the journey across Europe, the quasi-Biblical past, and Sherril's mindscape goes.

          Of course! You've stuck with me through my insane ramblings so far, it's only fair.

          I think Miranda is the only Innocence I can write, actually. I could probably manage one or two others, but Miranda interests me the most from a writing standpoint.

          I am in fact hoping to take them through a few more countries if I can make them make sense! And I'm hoping the next few biblical chapters are as interesting as I'd like them to be.

            Miranda's Innocence is great because it's powerful, but not overpowered to the point she can bring characters back to life, and it's angsty because she can only temporarily erase injuries so she forces herself to stay awake as long as she can. The details fit the dark tone of dgm. The Anita arc was very tragic. :(

            I know more about the Noahs' powers because of the characters I focus on. We don't know much about the Noah Memories themselves, though--I went wild with heacanons about how Bondom works in my longfic. I enjoy seeing your take as well, a half-angels origin is cool.
            A lot happens in the manga and I've lost track of a lot of details. And a new thing, "spiral energy" was just introduced...

            Ha, well, there are a lot of countries Miranda and Sheril could travel through! More time to sightsee and get to know each other. I'll comment on the biblical chapters once I get there. :)
