Okay let me cook. There's some possibility that Blade joins the Astral Express!

There are several interesting points that hint toward it:

1. In his Mortenax Blade splash art, he has "MAY THIS JOURNEY LEAD US STARWARD ALL ABOARD THE ASTRAL EXPRESS" in the text. The similar text is found in Sunday's splash art, who also joined the express 👀👀👀

2. The new official stickers that showcase Mortenax Blade happens to show him baking a cake! And as seen, Baseball Racoon, March Bunny, Woof Woof Dan and Sundove is seen interacting with said cake! Baseball Racoon holding it and the cake splattering all over others.

3. An NPC in the Star Rail Fest area tells you a cat is missing among the cast of the Fluffy. You know who is a cat? Not Himeko! Himeko is actually a fox as scene in her fox onesie and design. Blade is Mummicat, as referenced by Silver Wolf in the Anniversary Report.

4.2 spoilers below ❗️❗️❗️

4. And evidently, Dan Heng in the latest patch had made a point to follow Blade and keep an eye on him. Interestingly, since Blade is carrying more of Shuhu's flesh and is burdened greatly, who could possibly help him? Dan Heng's presence alone calmed his mara, which is a huge deal.

If you recall back during Xianzhou, Kafka's companion quest, she tells you she takes a while to tame the mara using the spirit whisper. Even then, sometimes she struggles to complete subdue it.

The fact that Dan Heng's mere presence can keep him calm is a huge help to Blade. So I theorize that Blade will stay with Dan Heng (even if temporary) by joining the Express, so that he doesn't lose control (with the burden he's carrying).

So, what do you think? Though it is a bit far fetched, Blade literally said looking at Dan Heng calms him and you can hear a heart beat when he does, maybe him joining with Dan Heng isn't too far off the table!

I think it's crazy that Dan Heng canonically calms down Blade. And Blade just saying that just out of nowhere. It seems that they're developing and Blade no longer feels distressed at the sight of him.

I've seen some people say it's because Dan Heng is no longer rejecting their past and wholeheartedly embracing it. "That which began because of us," there's no doubt that Dan Heng is reconciling with the past!

I can't believe we've reached this point after so many years. I can't imagine what 4.3 will bring. RenHeng making out sloppy style? 👀 jk, but there's some evidences that Blade might be joining the Express! Even temporarily, I think that would be cute.

Nabbed this clip from here if you wanna see the whole compilation of RenHeng scenes in 4.2: https://youtu.be/BzfEc0jWZBQ

Naka ilang tanong na ako, wala parin na rereceive. Sabi nila April daw sesend, May na teh 😭

This fic is such a gem! And in Reddit style storytelling too! I highly recommend give it a read. It's really funny

He's just an old man

Dan Heng feeding Blade is soo cute! And Phainon compares his relationship with Mydei with Dan Heng and Blade's!

Last year anniversary they had no words for one another. It's so nice to see their relationship developing further 🥹

There's not a single heterosexual explanation for what he said. The heartbeat? When he looks and focuses on Dan Heng?? I can't believe it. The fact that Dan Heng now calms him down instead of flaring up the mara, such a huge character development 🥹

They're so silly I'm cracking up

IT'S THE SHAPE OF A HEART!!! ❤️ I CAN'T BELIEVE IT! ALWAYS BET ON RENHENG

Imagine if he moves in with Dan Heng, he'll make sure Dan Heng is eating properly, cooking for him. Thinking about it, it's so cute
