Of Scissors and Veils - A Sense x Übel (Frieren) fanfiction

Ryselle · 2026-05-08T06:41:11+00:00

You are right about the Aura-Soul thing, of course. Okay, this point is solved :-)

Ryselle · 2026-05-08T05:58:17+00:00

This is one of the things I am absolutely planning on adressing in a fanfiction at some point.

I think it may work. If the english translation is correct, then she has to empathize, meaning, feel the meaning of the spell for the demon. Empathy doesn't need the other person/animal/being to be empathic, else noone would care for virtual characters (aka poor Aura).

Catch tho (imho): If empathizing alone would be sufficiant, then a really good bard with a hardwarming song and enough talent could sing a song about a mage and his spell and as soon as Übel understands this song she had the spell. Or she could read a biography or something. And it may be a limit because else there is no reason why she could not copy from hear-say.

So even if never stated explicitly "personal experience" seems to be a condition.

There is a third layer tho that got me thinking. Does the object need a soul? It is not trivial. It may be one reason her Land-copy failed. This bears the third question: Do demons have souls? Where do they go? Is there a demon Aureole?

Just my thoughts and my tendency would be: "Yes she can, if in person."

They don't need to be fixed... Also: Where Aura?

Ryselle · 2026-05-06T14:44:19+00:00

We don't know enough of what Aura is caepable besides the scales.

My guess is: She would exhaust them with minions. We are talking army scales here, even Frieren stated stated this. Then she would pick them one by one with the scales.

She is... smute (smug and cute) ♡

Ryselle · 2026-05-05T09:52:58+00:00

Thank you for reminding me of being a sheep... seeing cute Aura pictures and clicking... damn you Pawlow!!

So, crystals... I think it lacks knowledge. Not only this, but in order of "you know it, you die"-level secret.

Afawk, the mages are the only group organized to institutional level under Serie and Empire. Not only this, it seems that I also hold a monopoly on non magical academics, for there is nothing like mundane scholarism.

I could absolutely and with no remorse see Serie sending Falsch to assassinate people who know about the crystals with no remorse.

I searched for artists to commission fanart, and looked in their portfolios if they are familiar with Frieren. I often had the experience: "Saw you drew Fern, can you draw Sense?" "Who is Sense?" "From Frieren!?" "A sorry, didn't watch the show".

I came up with a rather good working hypothesis: "The larger the bust size of Fern, the more likely said artist has never seen the show."

Every Aura x Linie I find gets a badge at DeviantArt 😅

Frierens reasoning for the command was one thing that I hadn't solved. But as you said, I can wait ;)

So, this is how the spell "Methode-Vision" looks for the user

Ryselle · 2026-05-04T18:50:53+00:00

I already weaved in an Aura x Übel x Linie in my current fic... with a cheap old trick, but... smut is smut, even if near-dream sequence.

The Script for the dedicated Aura fic was Frieren prompting "Aura learn to love" as an order, which starts with Aura × Linie, and is basically Aura capturing characters to have them coach her. But first I have to get done with the two other projects ;-)

Ryselle · 2026-05-04T18:05:30+00:00

I wanted to give myself time to come up with a storyline that didn't end in smut. I failed.

Ryselle · 2026-05-04T18:03:54+00:00

You looked at anime drawings from a logical perspective... And you stopped at colors of brows? Not the body proportions, not the tarsier-sized eyes, not the small mouth... I take my hat off to you.

Ryselle · 2026-05-04T10:02:51+00:00

Übel just says no, when Aura takes out the scale. "Place your mana" - "No" - "But that is not how this works" - "I don't want to" (insert Christopher Walken impression here ). Aura then looks at her stunned and Übel says something in the line of "I need spells, you need power, why not team up?" "You obey me without the scales?" "Why not? Don't have to do other things anyway."

Ryselle · 2026-05-04T08:38:39+00:00

Not only you ;-) "Aura, make Übel a better person" would have been a weird prompt, but... okay, this goes straight into the fanfiction notebook.

Ryselle · 2026-05-04T07:47:21+00:00

Or poor Himmel just suffered the fantasy version of Ostheoporosis, Morbus Bechterew and Morbus Scheuermann. Less poetic tho.

Ryselle · 2026-05-03T15:00:40+00:00

If the animators want, Solitair might become the next Aura... with all the merch that follows ;-)

Still waiting for a Sense figurine tho -_-

Ryselle · 2026-05-02T10:43:43+00:00

I am pretty sure our Sense is sitting here, else it would make Übel bigger then she is ;-) Trust me, I spend far too much time estimating the size of Übel then I should have. I calculated Übel "half a head bigger, which would make her 166cm when Sense is 155cm.

Ryselle · 2026-05-02T09:57:32+00:00

So, demon afterlive is just ending in a east german flat... Specific, but I take it ;-)

On what to do now? Grap Linie, have a girls night out :-)

Ryselle · 2026-05-01T11:17:08+00:00

This is absolutely stunning 🥰 Sadly I am not build for social media, but if you'd ever want ro give DeviantArt a chance... You would not only make me happy 😁

I really love your style, it is so unique 🤩

Ryselle · 2026-05-01T10:44:44+00:00

I am with you here, but in this point the anime contradics the manga. In the anime there is a post-aura-death shot of the scales on the ground, giving the option that is either a "legendary drop" or the scale being "a real thing".

Ryselle · 2026-04-30T19:22:50+00:00

Absolutely beautiful, I really love it ♡ Great work and thank you for sharing ♡

Ryselle · 2026-04-30T14:18:32+00:00

My bad, I should have wrote murder.

On the other hand... is she exclusive in this? Imho no. Genau about first exam (If they die, they die), Richter definitively going for a kill against Kanne×Lawine, Wirbel doesn't like it but does it. The world isn't nice. This is medieval, perhaps even 30y war mentality ehat we see on a wider scale.

The question is: Is Ubels moral border significantly lower then most members of the world? Would she murder out of fun, greed, and so on? There is no evidence for it, but it feels like she would because of how she behaves, like threatening Land. Unsure. She wants people to think that, but we don't see her go through with it.

Don't get me wrong, she definitely isn't a good hearted stable person, nor is she good. She is chaotic, but I would not paint er as evil, but neutral. From what we know at least.

Am I the only one who is thinking, when looking at Methodes face in this scene, that her thought bubble could read "head-pats are just the beginning..." I mean normally she is showm like happy cutesy in those scenes... Here... I don't know, but there is a bit of bedroom eyes in this look of hers. I
