So I was thinking, since Chiro's so cute and all, all of her friends want to hug and/or kiss her whenever she does something cute. Like outside of Chiro's head when she smiles or gets excited about something The prevailing thought of Most of her friends is, 'She's so cute. I want to hug and kiss her.' Lupin and Inessa just hug her whenever those moments happen though. Although the hugs have different meanings. Lupin is down bad for Chiro and Inessa is her sister so hugs are just a thing they do when it's either needed or felt like. Actually in the context of the anime I bet Invidia Bat and Count Fruitula plushies are wildly popular.

I like to believe that Lupin is just weirdly tall and lanky which kind of helps the sell the narrative of her and evil dragon guy as family

Honestly rereading the first chapter a bit she's prrrrobably of a fairly average height?

Lupin Noir was our small school's resident goth, and the focus of Inessa's silent adoration for all of senior year. Between the faux-leather jacket, the spiked collar around her neck, the neon purple highlights in her raven-black hair and the faint hint of an unplaceable accent, Lupin had no shortage of aesthetic. Allegedly, she was also the school's resident rumormonger, and a girl who always got what she wanted.

"What brings you this way?" I asked. I hadn't heard the school bell, engrossed as I was in my talk with Mr. Noir, but my phone told me school had let out half an hour ago.

"When uncle dearest decides to spend the afternoon with a student, well, I can't leave until my ride's ready to go, so…" she shrugged.

"Mr. Noir's your uncle?" they were both pale to the point of being gaunt, but beyond that I could hardly see the family resemblance.

She nodded mournfully, "Yeah, I've been living with him since I came abroad to study. He's a bit of a square, but he's not that bad once you learn to speak his language. He treat you okay? It smells like he's been going hard on that incense of his."

I couldn't help but muse how little the two resembled each other. They were both unnaturally pale, of course, and there was a hint of shared accent in both their voices. But Mr. Noir was off-putting and a bit staid, while Lupin was just such a strange girl. Well, they both were nicer than I'd been led to expect.

Height isn't mentioned and in fact 'other than an accent and being pale' she apparently explicitly does not resemble Mr Noir to C's eyes.

Conversely, Temperance is explicitly described as being small, (tiny, in fact), but no mention of being particularly short is made for Lupin, so she's probably just... average? Neither remarkably tall nor remarkably short.

Though maybe an actual height reference comes up at some point, I'm not gonna go digging for that though.

Though if Chiro was still C's height, that would help explain why no one thinks she looks weirdly like Inessa.

I absently adjusted my sleeves, then did a quick double-take as I realized I had traded in my uniform for a jacket and jeans again, but they were suddenly far too big for me. The sleeve practically covered my hands, and my jacket threatened to slip off one shoulder.

"W-what!?"

"Awwww," Avaritia smiled toothily. "It's not super obvious when you're all batty because the wings really add a lot of volume, and you were all smokey and shifty before so it was hard to tell, but you're really just adorable, you know."

Lupin stepped toward me and I realized ey was right; I was used to people being my size at most or mostly shorter and now ey practically towered over me. It was intimidating in an oddly pleasant way. Well, who'd like being so pointlessly big? Tripping over things, taking up space, everyone expecting you to be strong and tough because you're tall and broad shouldered and why was Avaritia so close!?

so lupin is taller than chiro is (and probably inessa by extension), and probably not taller than c was?

C was generally on the tall side. Ida is the tallest of the rest and Chiro is, yes, exactly Inessa's height imo.

In rough order, and I don't think I've contradicted this in canon, but I might be wrong, it'd be Superbia>C>Ida>Lupin>Inessa/Chiro>Temperance.

"To repent for your sins, you must suffer as I have suffered!"
"Honestly, this isn't so bad. Kinda comfy."
"For now. Remember that time a toddler with shark teeth tried to eat me?"
"I wasn't eating you, just biting you!"
 
No. Wait *Actually* what if...? A conversation between fans of the anime went like this

Friend A: I have something to tell you
Friend B: I have come hence to reveal a secret I have long since been closed off from.
Friend A: *pulls out Count Fruitula plushie*
Friend B: *pulls out Avaritia Wolf plushy*
Friend A: You're in love with me?!
Friend B: I am also beyond gender, yes.
Friend A: Wait....you knew.
Friend B:.....You are holding Invidia Bat's familiar and you think I did not?
Friend A: *covers face in shame*
 
ooooh!!!! I kinda want one....

Honestly, I am just massively floored by the outpouring of art and appreciation here.

I'm still chipping away at the last big chapter. Getting it to feel right has been tricky, and I really want to bring things to a conclusion the way they deserve.

On the one hand, I'm a bit sad to know that this is ending. On the other, it really does feel like we're coming to the grand finale, and trying to extend things past their due tends to lead to degradation. On the gripping hand, there's always the possibility that Shining Virtue Angelic Heart will be approved for another season :V

Whenever I see posts like this I always wonder if people have four or more arms. Which almost always makes me wonder if the stories I enjoy are making it beyond the human world I'm bound in. And now I'm just thinking about a four armed person cuddling a count Fruitula plushie while typing.
 
this story is awesome and take absolutely all the time you need to give it the ending you want it to have
im new to SV so idrk here but where im from, finished fics are super rare lol, so whenever i see one finishing i get really happy that the author has... accomplished something really amazing

Take as long as you need. While I'm a bit sad to see this end, I hope C's story comes to a fortunate close.

Well, you can add me to those who'd like a sequel to this.

I hope a sequel is made, I really want to see more of what happens afterwards. No need for a complicated plot, just character interactions and stuff. I like to see the aftermath of stories usually.
