As much as I do go on about how the Emperor's Children are a bunch of femboys, there is far more to them than that.
People tend to forget (in part due to how Slaanesh has been reduced to a sex addict) that the reason they fell in the first place was their obsession with being the best of the best. All the illicit experimentation began with that goal in mind.
They (and Fulgrim) wanted to be the best, and that blinded them to how good they actually were.
I swear, if I hear *one more person* simplify fulgrim to just "yassss queen slay" I am going to break something. He's such an interesting, tragic and relatable character and I wish people didn't simplify him to "haha pretty boy".
Killing Ferrus literally drives him to suicide and is the tipping point that makes him fall.
Whenever he's sober, he is haunted by shame for what he did.
i am punished by love
What Leandros *really* reported him to the inquisition for.
Knew a dude that got demoted from captain because he slept with one of his subordinates and she got pregnant
This is why Titus got demoted. Not because of that chaos shit, but because he decided to lose his virginity 😈😈
honestly good for whichever serf or guardsman that'd be able to get their hands on Titus. Or whoever would got Titus' hands on them
id say something unholy but imma hold that back
You have also forgotten I, Cato Sicarius, the most important and iconic member of the most esteemed Ultramarines space marine chapter.

Scythes of the Emperor fight for Democracy?

This, more than anything else, is why I relate to the Emperor's Children.
Hilarious that you think us not being functional after 8:30 pm is okay.
Felt cute, might delete an army later.

The only way for him to grow out of his perfectionism would be for him to lose in a manner that was very clearly his own fault. The sword may have been the final straw, but it definitely wasn't even most of the reason why he fell.
‘if only fulgrim didn’t pick up the sword he could have’ could have what. could have what. stayed under the oversight of a distant father figure? kept pressuring himself and his sons to be perfect and flawless all the time? been disposed of when he’d served his purpose? i hate you
my mum was googling for an article about why everyone in the lord of the rings film is white (like to be clear she was annoyed by this) and the google ai was apparently like “everybody in the lord of the rings is not white. gandalf is grey.”
Femboys, Warhammer 40,000, Battleships, and whatever else crosses my mind
