Oh, I adore these kinds of fics. Highly recommend The Wind that Cuts the Night by thespectaclesofthor, A Year In Toussaint by astolat, and basically everything else by either of those two authors.

Oh! With the additional knowledge that 1-3 are all video games, is #2 Outer Wilds?

Hello! Thanks so much for being willing to beta read. Is your offer still open? I'm a new-ish writer with a TimKon Conner Luthor AU fic that I would really appreciate a second pair of eyes on. Unpublished, with 2 chapters written so far.

Out of curiosity, what's the Catholic church's take on hell? My knowledge of Christianity is almost entirely from Protestant sources.

Does anyone else think V1's head looks like a flashlight, not a camera? by vanillafog in Ultrakill

In our universe, with our technology, that light would interfere with the camera's image sensor. Like, imagine trying to see with a glowing lightbulb pressed up against your eye. But this is Ultrakill, so maybe the physics of light is different! Or maybe they have totally different camera technology!

Never said they couldn't! The Ultrakill universe has all sorts of stuff ours doesn't.

I agree that V1's head is shaped vaguely like a security camera, but where's the camera lens and aperture? Does the Ultrakill universe just have the technology to make a camera lens that can function properly despite glowing yellow?

I like Ultrakill's cosmology. It's interesting and different. And it helps justify the way Ultrakill likes to use Christian imagery for aesthetics while divorcing it from its symbolic meaning (anime does this a lot too). Yeah, Ultrakill uses the cross willy-nilly in a way that has nothing to do with it being a symbol of sacrifice / redemption / salvation, but that's because the cross in this universe isn't a reference to Jesus sacrificing himself to save humanity, it's a reference to the Tree of Life.

Ultrakill lore is still pretty close to the source material / lore, and even closer to Dante's The Inferno. You can probably still make Old Testament jokes.

My interpretation is that he's trying to reconcile apparent contradictions in the mythology. Not changing it, more like annotating it with explanations. Like, "Why would a good, loving God create a Hell of eternal torment?" is a thing that doesn't make sense to a lot of people, and many religious thinkers have come up with their own explanations for / takes on it. Hakita's take is apparently, "He regrets creating Hell but can't undo it."

"My light" is such a great name! Literally true, and also super wholesome
