Clear All Cathy

📜 Salutations! You can call me Sherlock (She/Her)!

✒️ I mainly post about Project Moon—you'll find lots of Lobotomy Corporation, Library of Ruina, and Limbus Company here. ✔️ These games (and associated lit) are my special interest. ✔️ I'm very critical of these games, and will voice my opinions.

Faves:

Limbus: Heathcliff, Ishmael, Outis, Ryōshū, Queequeg, Nelly, and Herbert. Library of Ruina: Roland, Angela, Malkuth, Hod, Gebura, Olivier, and Astolfo. L. Corp: Heart of Aspiration, Nothing There, and Mt. of Smiling Bodies.

📜 I'm a gray-romantic self shipper—this means that the way I ship might be different from what's considered "the norm." Additionally: ✔️ My main romantic fave is Heathcliff (Limbus Company). ✔️ I'm nonsharing with Heathcliff. Please respect this. ✔️ Fandom interaction is fine, just respect my boundaries. ✔️ Please do not mention Cathycliff or Johnlock to me.

✒️ If we're mutuals, PLEASE tag any and all Limbus Company spoilers, including any teased IDs or E.G.O. If you do not, I'll block you.

📜 Before following, please read my carrd, and be aware that: ✔️ If you're comship/proship, do not interact OR follow. ✔️ Minors may follow, but I won't follow you back. ✔️ My blog isn't spoiler free, but I provide media tags to filter. ✔️ If someone makes me uncomfortable, I'll block.

✒️ My main passion project is Limbus Company: Rewritten, in which I aim to rewrite the plot of Limbus Company to include my OCs, as well as the OCs of my friends. However, I occasionally draw, and write smaller fics, as well, usually focusing on my self ships. ✔️ Writing can be found under #cuddle up with a good book. ✔️ Art can be found under #illustrations. ✔️ Rewrite can be found under #Limbus Company: Rewritten.

I decided it'd be helpful if I updated my carrd to detail my boundaries when it comes to what I feel constitutes a spoiler for Limbus Company.

You can find this information linked in my BYF--I feel these are all reasonable things to ask, and I have multiple tags filtered to avoid them! If you're not comfortable tagging spoilers, you can simply use my "#sherlock don't look" tag, but I do prefer the spoiler tag, since then I'll know WHY I shouldn't open the post.

And while Sherlock's compliments can be double-edged in the source, I think Sherry is genuinely kind to him--and Heathcliff doesn't really know what to do with that because he isn't used to being given genuine compliments or having someone actually intervene on his behalf.

This extends to all Mirror Worlds (save the one where Sherry has her Moriarty ID--that is the one instance of Heathlock being more unhealthy), too--lots of Heathcliff's IDs deal more damage when his HP is low, and his Shi ID specifically has a line where he gets angry about someone caring about his injuries. But every Sherry (save the one previously mentioned) instinctively wants to tend his wounds. And she offers gentle conversation while she does so.

Heathcliff really does crave connection, but he's been mistreated for it at every turn, which is why he starts Limbus so hostile to anyone and everyone. It isn't until the end of Canto V that he starts to change because, despite the problems he causes--and he does cause a few, and a big one is motivated by his desire to please Catherine--the Sinners stand by him. He takes a while to warm up to everyone ... but even so, he's more worried and Don Quixote dying in Canto IV than he is himself.

He's fine throwing himself into harm's way because Dante can bring him back in an instant, which also says something ... he is just so willing to die. On so many occasions. His self worth is so low due that he's okay throwing his life away again and again and again.

And that clearly would upset Sherry, given her experience--watching Watson die right in front of her--which causes friction between them. Eventually it would lead to some conversation where she snaps and finally scolds him for being so reckless, because his life is worth something, but even that comes from genuine affection for him.

"After tryin' and failin' to recreate that style on my own for so long ...'

Special delivery for Sherlock?

A very tiny Heathcliff for you! (He's only drawn a few pixels tall... so you might need to zoom in to see him properly)
