Forgotten Dreams

Some people call Night City the City of Dreams. But to those of us living in it in 2044, it’s the City of Nightmares. Twenty years after Johnny Silverhand detonated a thermonuclear device at the Arasaka Tower and ended the Third Corporate War, the city is only just now leaving its post-apocalyptic state. The Nighters that call it home are either too stubborn to leave or have nowhere else to go. In the remnants of the American third world, that isn’t too unusual. The sky is still red with the particulates left over from the Fourth Corporate War, casting a dark bloody glow over the world. Underneath this crimson sky Night City is a battleground where every man woman and child is locked in a never ending war for survival. As hard as what remains of the Night City government and relevant neocorps try to maintain order and rebuild infrastructure, most of the city is still in ruins or utter poverty, usually both.
Electricity is unreliable, the water is tainted, and the animals have long since died out or been driven from the city leaving artificial meat and plantlife the only food sources and ration chips a universal currency only eclipsed by cold hard Eurodollars. Overall, Night City is a pretty fucking miserable place to live.
But that just means those of us left are more determined to keep fighting. The corpos at the top want to squeeze the corpse of the City of Nightmares dry of any and all eddies it might have left, the politicians want to hold on to their power, the gangers want to cling onto the highs of designer drugs and spent bullets, the civies want to keep the lights on and rations on the table, and us Edgerunners want to make our mark on the world before we get snuffed out. That’s how it works. We burn bright and we burn hot but we just don’t burn long. Not in this city.
For us, it isn’t about just surviving. It’s living on the Edge. The fine line between life and death, the new frontiers of technology, fashion, night life. We have the most ‘in’ clothes, we have the baddest guns, we have the shiniest chrome. We see this city for the living nightmare it truly is and we laugh in its face and dare it to try and take us early. And when it does, we get the greatest honor an Edgerunner can achieve: a drink named after us on the menu at the Afterlife, the bar where we all raise toasts to the legends whose lights went dark at last.
We come from all walks of life, all kinds of backgrounds with all kinds of goals and hopes and ambitions and dreams. Solos, Techs, Medias, Fixers, Netrunners, Rockerboys, Medtechs, Lawmen, whatever. But wading through the mud and muck of this city for so long can mean we get caught up in it. Stuck in the endless river of shit with no way of getting out of the nightmare. We lose sight of what matters, lose sight of the Edge. Get caught up in gang wars, corporate contracts, hunting criminals, pulling off heists and staving off cyberpsychosis. We forget the dream. We forget what makes us Edgerunners.
But I’ve been watching you for a while now, and you haven’t forgotten. You keep the dream alive. You’re living it. You’ve reminded me what it means to be an Edgerunner, which is more than I can say for any of the other new talent trying to make a name for themselves in Night City. That’s why I’m reaching out to you. The names Checkmate, and I’m looking to put together a crew for a job. A big job. The kind that’ll set you up with the street cred and the eddies to jumpstart your career by a decade, at least. Find me at the Afterlife, and let’s have a chat.
Drinks are on me.

Background Lore

The world of Cyberpunk is a dystopia that focuses on individual stories of strife, hope, and personal growth. It’s a hellscape world that isn’t due to change anytime soon, and instead you learn how to survive and become the best version of yourself within it, holding on to your humanity as best you can in a world that is determined to take it from you. Sure, corpos and gangers and mercs and cops are probably going to feature as the enemies you fight mostly, but it isn’t the true enemy. The true enemy is Night City itself. The city is a metaphor for the society and very world, an abyss that’s just waiting for the chance to swallow you whole at the first opportunity. Night City is the pit where humanity goes to die, and it’s also your only true salvation because it’s where it’s at. There is no Cyberpunk without Night City, there is no humanity without Night City, there is no you without Night City. The only way to beat it is to leave it, and even those that have the opportunity often can’t bring themselves to do it.
No one ever wrote a legend about the one that walked away, after all.
The timeline of the Cyberpunk series diverges dramatically from our own around roughly the 1990s—although other divergences do occur well before then, albeit smaller in size and scope—where the fall of the Soviet Union at the end of the Cold War leads to a dissemination of nuclear weapons on the black market. Coupled with a US government "deep state" called the Gang of Four, the world soon finds itself in the midst of an economic crisis and the Collapse. Proxy wars, trade wars, and a resurgent Europe butt against the prevailing US world order. Eventually, brief nuclear exchanges and biological warfare around the globe cause the gradual decline of Western civilization. Societies collapse and many governments either dissolve or are reduced to reactionary, petty authoritarian states.
In the chaos, corporations fill the vacuum of power amidst a collapsing social order. Technological advances, unbridled from government oversight or ethical limitations, lead to hundreds of new inventions. As time wears on, some corporations become as powerful as the countries they are housed in. Ultimately, four corporate wars have occurred by 2023, each one becoming more overt and deadly than the last. The infamous Fourth Corporate War was brought to an end by the detonation of a nuclear bomb in the heart of Night City. The years that followed until 2045, the Time of the Red, were a period of global reconstruction as corporations and governments alike tried to recover from unparalleled economic and environmental damage. Lawlessness, chaos and technology. This is the world of Cyberpunk.

What is Forgotten Dreams?

This roleplay is all about the Edge. The Edge is the idea that Cyberpunks/Edgerunners live and die by, which is always going forward. Never compromising yourself, never bowing down, never allowing the authority and the corpos and the world to step on you. It means the fastest cars, the most in clothes, the best cyberware, the most deadly guns, and being cool and reputable. It means living your life by the idea that you are going to be a legend, a Street Samurai that lives on forever by the badass deeds they accomplish and the people they touch.
But as the saying goes, no battle plan survives contact with the enemy, and living life on the Edge comes with its risks for you and those around you. Night City is a violent place, even before it got nuked. Life is expensive and death is cheap, and the eddies don’t trickle down unless you take them. It's easy to lose sight of the dream, lose sight of the Edge.
You will be taken on a journey that will test you physically, emotionally, and psychologically. You will see the best and worst Night City has to offer in a time when chaos is the rule of day and stability is a long forgotten memory. You will experience action, intrigue, mysteries, romance, betrayal, and more. But be warned because once you start straddling the Edge, there's no getting off again.

How Do I Apply?

If you are interested in going on this adventure with me, then what you have to do is the following:

1. Send me a PM with 'Forgotten Dreams' in the subject line. I will not respond to any chats sent my way unless they are requests for a PM first for whatever reason as I just don't like the chat system here.
2. Tell me what I should call you, a fun fact about yourself, and your likes and dislikes in storytelling, especially your hard limits. I am a writer interested in very dark themes and smut, and part of that means knowing where I need to stop for you.
3. Give me a basic character idea and a writing sample. It doesn't have to be very long, but the more complex and detailed the better chance of securing the writing spot. The writing sample should be a short narrative about your character receiving Checkmate's message and how they react to it.
4. Finally, really sell yourself as a partner to me. I'm only looking for a single partner on this idea, and I'm going to be very picky about it.

I look forward to hearing from you!

How could Ceasar possibly react? He would continue to conquer Gallia? And after that when he would return to rome the civil war would start like in our timeline? What about french language would sound the same?

I will take junk offers of yellowcake/fluorescent flux, springs, gears, titanium,antiseptic,oil, fiber optics and copper. Will also accept apparel.

Hello all! Before my post itself, I would like to clarify a couple of things: (Feel free to skip for the "meat and potatoes")

1. I do not believe that the 2024 election is unimportant. I believe that it is not the election that will decide on the survival of American democracy, nor do I think such will be decided in an election at all. Instead, I believe the true fight would be to resist the calls of a compelling orator, either from the far right or left, that much is currently undecided. The larger point is that the campaign that such a potential threat would run would merge bipartisan issues into a single ticket, while isolating an "other". This is not as outlandish as I believe people currently think.
   
2. I do not believe that the oppression of minorities and the disenfranchised in this country under the wrong administration is trivial. I am arguing exclusively in regard to the common association with 1933 and the fall of democracy in the US.
   
3. This is incredibly important. In undergraduate, I extensively did research on and took several courses on the fall of Weimar Germany, and the factors that allowed for the rise of Adolf Hitler, all in the course of a degree of Political Science. I continued this education through my Law School career, which I have now finished. Some of this involved reading horrific books, either depicting Nazi atrocities, or Main Kampf itself, and its lesser known sequel. NONE of this means I will ever be sympathetic toward those horrific people, and their horrific policies. I believe it was a poignant education, one that teaches of the fragility of Democracy, and the power of a competent orator appealing to the downtrodden. Learning history to avoid its repetition.
   
4. Nothing here represents my political views, which I choose to keep completely separate from the discussion at hand. There is no point in this context to go into personal politics, this is exclusively a writing on a specific argument regarding the risks to American Democracy. If someone wants to ask about my personal ideas, go ahead, but that is separate from this discussion. This is a warning and prediction regarding the future of the US, if we allow the present to cloud over long-term risks.
   
5. I do not endorse or support former president and candidate Donald Trump by downplaying his threat to democracy. I stand by the belief that he is too divisive to be such, and that, if elected, he would be completely unable to seize the organs of state from the democratic process, nor will he be able to trounce the balance of powers. Let us say he fills every executive position with competent "yes men" who will work towards these ends, and has a simple majority in all branches. What can he do? Will he impeach every member of the opposition using the justice department and trumped up charges, while the SC remains enigmatically loyal to his decisions no matter the consequence? Can he wrest control over a FBI and CIA that clearly are his political adversaries? How will he circumvent the hatred held by the bottom of the governmental pyramid, those he simply cannot replace at will? In the US, I firmly believe that it would take a bipartisan support group to allow for an internal takeover. Does this mean civil war is impossible? No, in fact it is likely more likely. But this is regarding 1933 comparisons, and so operates on the presumption that there will be an internal seizure over the organs of state, eventuating in the Constitution itself being rewritten to reframe the United States as a dictatorship centered on the President. The question of a prospective civil war and its result is a completely different conversation, and would less reflect 1933 and more other internal conflicts throughout history.
   

With all of that aside, here is my argument:
The German elections of 33 were already completely doomed at the time, there was no escaping the fascist trap by then. The left had crippled itself before the election through infighting, the Stalinist communist party actually despised the social democrats (the SPD) more than the Nazis. There was a push for Hindenburg for this reason, and every party wanted authoritarianism already. Hindenburg was a monarchist, the SPD leadership wanted a dictatorship or would have nominated one to the presidency, the Communists wanted to join the Stalinist sphere, and the Nazis go without saying. All this to say that the current election is nowhere near that bad, and no Trump cannot become dictator in this term. Maybe if he rallied 66% of Congress and the population, a real fear if he was deadly effective in speaking, rhetoric, and had a previously clean record. Given the failings of the Democrats to actually work as a party for the people, a Hitler in Trump's shoes would have destroyed the Democrats, and likely would have succeeded by 2024 in removing democracy from the USA.
You see, Hitler would have had a cadre of like minded, loyal and effective individuals to spearhead his administration. He would not be mired in the same controversy, the warnings on authoritarianism would be the same, but without the outlandish remarks every other day like from senile Trump. He would likely point to the illegal immigrants as the problem, or god forbid the Jews again, given that Palestine and this crisis would be fertile grounds to stoke anti-semitism in the modern day. There would be no hush money or real estate manipulation, but there would probably be a January 6th (beer hall Putsch). he would expertly handle himself through these situations, and work far harder to sell the fact that the establishment is out to get him. He would appeal to everyone outside of his target "enemy" group, so he would work hard to appeal to all races in the US, would absolutely work alongside islamism and black supremacists for example to further his cause. Finally, the Democrats of this year would not hold a candle to such an orator and populist. Biden would literally be a modern Hindenburg, if not worse, as his mental state is far too declined to effectively debate and combat such a person. Infighting in the Dems would be far worse, as the tensions between radical leftists and more classical liberals would be exasterbated in the fact of this issue. Worse, is that Hitler was anti-globalist, a popular position today, and would not desire foreign conflict--this might sound oxymoronic given the man we know. A Hitler in the US would not see the point to war, not when the USA has the territorial means to sustain itself. He wanted self-sustaining autarkic economic spheres by the major powers in the world, and noted the US already had one. So isolationism would fit the bill here. If reborn into an American, he would have subverted and destroyed our democracy by 2024, of this I am certain. This is to say that we can still vote and decide our nation's future. It is to say that Trump is old and incompetent, and could not achieve half of what Hitler did. This is a practice run for our democracy, a litmus test to see if we can withstand the young, motivated, expert orator fascists/authoritarians of the future. This needs to be a wake up call to the Democrat party, that acts as if elections are to be taken for granted, where the American people must endure a line of those who feel entitled to the presidency because it is "their turn".
The next Trump will have very little in common with him. They will be younger, have a spotless record, and a coherent policy. They will have a cadre of like minded, competent allies. They WILL be far better at courting the working class, and the disenfranchised. They will NOT make the mistake of alienating more groups than one or two set targets. They will be inclusive towards popular groups and issues, they will work closely with minority citizens, LGBTQ activists, and more as the "American vision". People are already fed up with rampant illegal immigration, and with the Israel-Palestine crisis on BOTH sides of the spectrum, this would not be a divisive area to direct lethal hatred. The appeal of isolationism and a self-sufficient USA is not despised on both sides. The battle over abortion would be an easy path towards euthanization, as part of an extreme pro-abortion position, one that would seek to lower children from illegal families, and those with genetic deformities. Don't believe me? Iceland already does this with down syndrome children in the modern day, and abortion being promoted in illegal families is no stretch, believe me. You all see 1933, I see 1920s Weimar Germany. Our path is not set in stone, but the hallmark signs of an impending 1933 are clear as day to me. So many of the issues people see as impending fascism are pointed in the wrong direction, and the bipartisan issues and climate already exists for an evil, competent person to take votes from both sides in their own movement. The Beer Hall Putsch occurred in 1923, a full 10 years before the Nazi takeover of state. January 6th happened 3 years ago. The timing is no coincidence. The fascists needed 10 years to solidify the leadership needed for a takeover, I fully believe this is happening as we speak right now. 2024 is not the election where I think democracy will crumble in the United States, 2032 is. Be ready and vigilant Americans!
TL;DR: If 1933 is to repeat itself in the US, 2032 (99 years later!) will be the more likely date for it's occurrence. The assumption that the 2024 election resembles 1933 is wrong on several counts, but I focused on two major ones. One, the 1933 election is widely regarded to be a "doomed" election, as in no matter the result, democracy would have fallen in the 1930s fr Germany. I do not capture all of the nuance here in my expedited explanation, but feel free to ask if you would like to know more. And two, more importantly, the individual that seeks to end American Democracy would be far more uniting, and dangerous than Donald Trump. It is satisfying to label his populist platform as "fascist", but that does not effectively capture the strength and competency of his movement, something of an important distinction. A fascist can very easily include every major group in the United States, and has no need to isolate from within when, as I mentioned, there are stigmatized groups that are becoming less popular with both sides of the aisle. This is all, of course, just food for thought, I am not an oracle, and while educated I am no master of the subject matter.
If you believe I am wrong about this and that, please let me know in the comments. I do not expect to be right about anything, I am open to differences in opinion. I am here to talk to people, not argue or anything else of that matter. Honestly, I used to have close friends who are no longer with me that would have spoken for hours about this subject or that, I miss them, and am probably just trying to emulate what I have here with you all. It is poor proxy, but why not be clear about my reasoning for everything. Thanks for reading!

Ever been stuck in an escape room? No? Let me paint you a picture. I was knee-deep in a cold-war style bunker. The air was chilly, the light dim, and the only company I had was a rickety old radio, crackling with static.
That was when it hit me. The only way out of this bunker and back to civilization (and a much-needed coffee) was through technology. Not in the sense of seeking help from the outside world, but in solving the puzzles in the room.
First, I had to decipher the ancient Morse code broadcast through the radio. To do this, I had to ignore the horror movie like static and focus on the beeping sounds. I had to use critical reasoning here. The long beep must be a dash and the short beep a dot, or so I figured. But, it was obvious the code was not in English. I had a Eureka moment. It was in Russian! After all, it was a cold war bunker.
Next, came a technological puzzle, an old computer with command line interface. I had to use my deduction skills here. Years of exposure to tech had taught me that simple commands like "ls" or "cd" could reveal a lot. Unfortunately, the computer was in Russian too. But, I reasoned, the coding languages are universal, aren't they? I typed in the commands and voila, I got the information I needed.
Finally, came the trickiest puzzle. A robotic arm holding a key, programmed to drop it only at a specific voice command. Who knew understanding sound and voice technology would ever come in handy in an escape room! I had to use the principles of sound frequency and volume here. After several failed attempts and almost losing my voice, I nailed the right pitch and volume.
There you go! I used technology and reasoning to escape the bunker. What was the reward you ask? Well, the immense satisfaction of critical reasoning and proving I could survive a cold war bunker. And of course, that much-deserved coffee!
P.S: I used the mental model of reasoning in technology here. And hey, before you get worried, this tale was purely hypothetical! I didn't actually get stuck in a bunker. But who knows, we might face a digital bunker someday, and mental models like these could be our escape tools!

Setting:
In a post-apocalyptic Earth ravaged by nuclear war, humanity clings to survival within the shattered remains of once-great cities. These survivors are protected by a formidable force known as the Militia, composed of ground troops and elite pilots called Rangers, who command powerful mechs, known as Guardians. Amidst this desolation, dangers lurk in the form of bandits, mutated creatures, and mysterious anomalies.
Plot:
Muse A, ever since their childhood, had dreamed of becoming a Ranger. The thought of piloting a Guardian and protecting their home from the threats outside the protective walls was something every kid had dreamed of. After having trained in the Academy and serving their time in the militia as an infantryman, they were finally chosen to become a ranger. Despite being in a city isolated from all other surviving sources of civilization, 'Guardians' were always being made especially in the factories that managed to survive especially after the war, using whatever scrap and parts were left.
Muse B would be a new courier, probably the second most important job asides from the Rangers. After having learned from veterans who traversed through the ruined world, they would have soon graduated and thus, achieved their right to hold a Courier license. This would be the first step for them to make a change to the world, being able to reconnect cities by brining medicine, media, and other supplies that any client may be looking for.
One day, both Muse A and Muse B would be called by the Council for a special mission to prove their worth. Muse B was to deliver an important item to the distant city of Arcadia, which was their neighbor across the landscape. Muse A however, was in charge of protecting Muse B, ensuring their safe travels to and from. With their first objectives now known, they'd be sent off to do their work, unknowing of the dangers and threats that was rising from the dark.
To Readers:
Hi there and thank you for stopping by and reading this little post of mine. So just for a bit of information, I am a 19 (soon to turn 20)-year old male with up to seven years of roleplaying experience. This is kind of one I have been wanting to share for a while and have just been in a bit of a limbo through editing, brainstorming, and changing details here and there. But anyways, this is a new plot which I am currently looking for people to roleplay with. Now I should mention that I mostly roleplay on discord and as such, I won't have as much of a time responding to roleplays on Reddit compared to there. Now, if anyone is interested and wants my discord, go on ahead and hit me up. If you're not interested, I'm still grateful you came by to check out my post and I wish you all a great day.

I know the lore aspects of it Doesn't make sense, neither to the game itself or to LOTR itself, but, i Want to make a LOTR playthrough that fits into the Civil War, but i Do kinda wish there was a replacer mod that changed the soldiers in the Civil War - Both The Empire and Stormcloaks, come to think of it - with armor and names fitting from the books/movies themselves..
I asked CHATGPT for good replacers, and the ones that came was: - Dunedain - Gondorians - Rohirrim (doesn't quite fit i guess but okay) - Elves of Lothlorien (ironic😂)
So... Maybe i'm just wish-thinking it, but is there any Good Lord Of The Rings replacer mods in Skyrim, that could fit that side? Or any other guard-groups in Skyrim?

Catholics challenged the Protestant notions that linked democracy and Christianity, capitalism and Christianity, and the individualism Protestants interpreted from Scripture” As Mark Noll explains, this “amounted to a fundamental assessment of prevailing beliefs and practices that American Protestants, whose main principles were so closely intertwined with the nation’s dominant ideologies, could not deliver”

In the Kaiserreich, if America joined the Third International, the Entente, or the Co-prosperity, America could become an enemy of the German empire.
The German Empire could win in Europe, Asia and Africa. But to invade America, the German empire would face many difficulties. America can take advantage of the fact that the German empire is bogged down on the battlefields of Europe, Africa and Asia to establish influence throughout the Americas with military power. Although America was ravaged by civil war, it still possessed the largest army in the Americas and a navy superior to all nations in the Americas. Therefore, the German empire will not have a location near America to conduct landings.

My gramp’s middle name is R. Just R, it doesn’t stand for anything. I was told the US government gave it to him in WW2 to differentiate him on paperwork and made it legal. I’ve seen his death certificate too, it’s on there exactly like that. The thing is that he was never drafted. They said they did that because there were other people in town with his exact same name. Which also doesn’t make sense because our last name is made up, it didn’t exist before the civil war. My dad’s family could hold a joke for a literal lifetime so I have no idea if anyone is messing with me. Dad was a scientist who read Charles Darwin and bought me dinosaur books. He always told me he didn’t believe in them; still have no idea if he is joking and it’s been 30 years.

The Civil war began on April 12th, 1861 with the battle of Fort Sumter. However, South Carolina was the first to secede in December of the year prior and each state seceded individually over the course of months prior to the battle that would start the war in the first place. Wouldn’t South Carolina seceding on its own have muster some quick response by the US government prior to Alabama and other states seceding?
What actions were taken inbetween each state seceding and Why was immediate action not taken? And if possible what was the general response from citizens as the Confederacy was forming from December 20th 1860 to April 12th 1861?

A big reveal was made in a recent Q&A with Tappei where he mentioned that Kadomon's wife Raksha is actually the daughter of Carol Remendis and Grimm Fauzen and gave Kadomon his scar. In a previous Q&A he said Raksha's family were capable merchants, though this could be the Fauzen side who leveraged their connection to nobility, but we also have the unknown parents of Flam and Grassis. Kadomon being connected to the Remendis family is one thing, but he is also connected to Rom. When Subaru asks about getting in contact with him about Felt, Rom says he should contact Kadomon and he would relay the message.
To make things more suspicious, Tappei has basically confirmed that Kadomon is poor at salesmanship and his appearance turns off customers to the point where his business would collapse without the support of his wife's family. Why is such a shady-looking guy bad at salesmanship with a seemingly shady past, according to Tappei, even running a fruit stand when he is literally married to a noble family's daughter who may also be involved with wealthy merchants? I think the answer is that the fruit stand itself is something of a front and his actual job is something else.
I suspect Kadomon may be a member of Six Tongues or otherwise involved with them. Since Rom is secretly Valga Cromwell, one of the leaders of the Demi-Human Alliance during Luginica's civil war decades ago, Kadomon being in regular contact with him would not be unusual. No way would Six Tongues not want to remain apprised of Rom's activities. Perhaps Kadomon has other roles and is essentially just working as a point of contact or informant to Six Tongues, but his involvement with them would explain how he ended up married to a member of the Remendis family. Could also be that he got involved with Raksha and that is how he ended up involved with Six Tongues. Perhaps his scar came from a time when they first met and he was a criminal.
Six Tongues was started up by a guy who Wilhelm met during his brief incarceration after his little stunt to "win" Theresia. Wilhelm arranged for the guy to head up essentially something akin to Luginica's secret police. This connection to Wilhelm would also mean a connection to the Remendis family as they are associated with the Astrea family into which Wilhelm marries. Currently, Six Tongues is led by Russell Fellow, the guy to whom Subaru gave his cellphone.
Not sure where this was stated, but Fandom claims Russell is married and that it was for political purposes. His official identity is that of a merchant, so maybe he is the family of Raksha's that Tappei was referencing and he married into the Remendis family. Could explain the strange situation with Flam and Grassis, who have no parents mentioned and were apparently cared for by Reinhard to some extent. Either way, Kadomon being part of Six Tongues could mean the Remendis family is also involved with them to some extent and many members seem to front as merchants.
What this could mean for the upcoming arc is obvious when one considers the other things hinted at by Tappei. He has stated the Safe Council is distressed by the Emilia Camp's achievements and that is probably only going to worsen when they get a full briefing on everything that happened with Priestella, the Watchtower, and Vollachia. Priscilla's death will be an even bigger issue as she was probably one of the most credible competitors now that Crusch has had her issues. Anastasia's Camp has some issues of their own and that leaves Felt's Camp, who were approached by Russell when Felt and Reinhard accompanied Sirius to prison.
For the faction of the Sage Council that is opposed to Emilia, all of Subaru's antics and general shadiness will definitely be something they will want explored in detail and Russell is fully committed to defending the Kingdom. As noted, he has Subaru's cellphone, which Subaru misled him into thinking was a Witchbeast detector. Russell has probably long since determined that was complete fiction. Now throw in the possibility that Kadomon is one of Russell's assets or informants and you might pick up on the issues.
How many things has Kadomon casually overheard from Subaru in success loops, particularly that first one where he was babbling about time loops and Return by Death right there in front of him, while referring to Emilia as Satella? What might Rom have mentioned to Kadomon? Subaru actually told Rom that cellphone had a completely different function from what he suggested to Russell.
Basically, his rambling to the seemingly insignificant fruit stand owner could end up causing him the biggest problem out of all his behavior. He may even say or do something suspicious in this upcoming arc when he returns to the capital and drops by Kadomon, which he is certain to do if he is in the capital. Also, one hint Subaru might have about his true identity could come through information only Kadomon should have known being used against him by Russell and Six Tongues. It could also come from what I anticipate will happen in the next: Witch Cult jailbreak.
Sirius is being detained in a special prison in the capital and Roy may be sent there himself. Everyone expects a jailbreak, which will mean chaos in the capital. Raksha being the child of Grimm and Carol probably means she is one good fighter and she is the one who left scars on Kadomon's face, which was when Tappei mentioned her parentage. Subaru may end up seeing his wife display her ability in the face of some massive Witch Cult attack and realize there is more to that family than he knew.
