/// sumeru & dottore spoilers
so let me get this straight: academy dottore was some weirdo who was "attracted to ancient machines" and couldn't hold a normal conversation, some chick SOMEHOW found him attractive, they go on a picnic and he chokes her to death?? I----?????
I do love that hoyoverse deadass confirmed that scara has actually never had long hair and the entirety of the scara fandom just said "nah" and kept drawing him with long hair anyway
man the people who were horrified over arlecchino being a bad person are gonna get such whiplash once they find out pulcinella isn't a sweet gnome grandpa either
man dottore really went to the sages of sumeru and said "can your crappy god do this?" and showed off a robot with like 12 flamethrowers and they just immediately bought it 😭
It's funny how a lot of the fatui don't seem to know about dottore's segments.... like childe's voice line is that "he heard" they exist, and the lower ranks definitely don't know, so the organization at large must think dottore just has very big mood swings and is a fast walker

I accidently saw this video on Bilibili and i really want to share 🤣
There are some more videos that have same topic as this one you can check it out on their Bilibili
thinking about how scara knew dottore before the segments and how dottore treated his wounds from the abyss and how he gave the gnosis to dottore and the trust he must have had for dottore and how unfathomable dottore's betrayal and manipulation must have been and and and---
ok NOW I dare talk about this because it's not actually in the quest but gives us some interesting extra info
1. scara was under dottore's care before becoming a harbinger
2. scara was the blueprint for the segments(!), and in return his powers were unsealed by dottore (1/2)
it's like one of those cases where a fanon idea gets so popular and widespread that it actually overrides canon and in this case it's absolutely for the better 💜
doodle of that one scene where dottore decides to interrupt everyone talking about the shouki no kami to instead go on a small ramble about his relationship with scara like???? get a grip man
#dottoscara
so what we can take from all this is that dottore isn't attracted to people but rather artifical things
and who do we know that's artificially made hm?
that's right, scaramo-*shot*
for real though, what was the reason dottore felt the need to slap on this cute heart piece right here? it's like the mecha variant of the succubus womb tattoo...
enough kunikuzushi as a doe-eyed naively innocent born-sexy-yesterday trope..... more kunikuzushi being this weird aloof creature that'll give anyone a sense of uncanny valley just looking at him........ something that pretends to be human but hasn't quite perfected it yet 👁👁
while I'm glad people are discovering that amazing part of the 3.3 quest where it says dottore was tempted to bite a severed arm I'm sad that the earlier version of that story which had cannibal scara instead is being forgotten 🥹
Saw a group of mechanics yesterday and they were discussing something regarding a car problem and there was this fatass cat in the middle listening to them for some reason
@fatuiiwx
Right 😭😭 they're already so hyper focused on the part about him treating childe's family nicely that they forgot about those 64 fatui soldiers that he left to die in the chasm lmao
the text in scara's old artifact lore saying "you once acquired the 'heart' that you always dreamed of, but it was but a mere prop for lies and deception" makes so much sense now after 3.3.... 🥲
comedic aspect aside, maybe just the higher ranking harbingers know for sure? scara obviously knows since he played part in making them, so is it 6 and up then? though it's weird to imagine harbingers like sandrone or pantalone not knowing
thinking long & hard about how the word "monster" has been central in all of dottore's lore so far.... and also the odd contradictions we've seen regarding it, as we've had him both relish, mourn and take insult to the term 🤔 it's for sure gonna be a key theme for his character
man the people who were horrified over arlecchino being a bad person are gonna get such whiplash once they find out pulcinella isn't a sweet gnome grandpa either
for real tho, my favorite old "dottore's lack of regard for human life includes his own & he probably experiments on himself regularly" headcanon is thriving today, like of course the lunatic who got a job working on creating super humans and artificial gods would do this
@pootaetae
I'm pretty sure that's canon, because he also has that Electro mark on the back of his neck and it's also visible through his clothes, even when it's not lit up
while I do hope dottore has some clever way of remembering scara the thought of a short stranger with a big hat just jumping him and beating him senseless one day while he's like "?????!!!!" is very funny to me
scara coming up from the abyss for the first time in like 50 years to get patched up & dottore takes the opportunity to woo him, happy valentine's day 💝

Yo!! New print from the amazing and talented
@Ero_Pinku
I love my prints❤️ I’ll
have this at all
my upcoming con appearances. Have a great weekend everyone. ❤️🍀❤️🍀
so like.... what's our theory on what dottore actually is? 🥴 he has repeatedly called himself human, scara also called him a human, but he also caused the tatarasuna incident 400 years ago (before he had the segments) which...... isn't a very human thing to do
3. scara spent a lot of time in the abyss and would return to have his injuries treated by dottore
4. scara was nameless until he became a harbinger
5. using scara to create the segments took "decades" (2/2)
I really love the idea of dottore being just a guy. just an old slasher dude, not even special enough for a vision. no tragic backstory, he's just your small town sociopath. maybe a local serial killer (for science ofc!👨🔬) before he got chased out, but that's about it!
I can't believe old man dott can't be bothered to attend important diplomatic meetings so he just sends his 30 year old unmedicated self there instead wow what a day
you know what, it's high time we let go off this idea that scara's only role within the fatui was being the test subject of a certain doctor when we know he was canonically a commander and a leader of his own subordinates which he lead on missions both in teyvat and in the abyss
