The Loop Explained: Sylus & MC's Fated Connection by ellely
Fandoms: 恋与深空 | Love and Deepspace (Video Game)

Summary
In the card Magnum Opus, Sylus and MC briefly joke about their "ill-fated relationship." The English translation isn't wrong but if you're unfamiliar with Chinese storytelling traditions, it's easy to read this as a case of star-crossed lovers whose relationship is doomed to end badly.
But that's not what it actually means.
The Chinese script uses 孽缘 (nièyuán), which doesn't refer to a tragic romance so much as a karmic entanglement.
Once you understand what it means, a lot about Sylus and MC's relationship will start to make sense:
- why their story feels cyclical,
- why Sylus is so intent on MC recovering her memories,
- and why their relationship keeps ending in tragedy. -

Summary
He is the last dragon of Philos. Sixteen centuries of imprisonment in the Abyss have left him with nothing but bitterness and an all-consuming ennui.
When Fate delivers his would-be executioner—a witch with more sass than sense, a sword she can’t wield, and a defiance that ignites something long buried—it’s all he can do not to laugh.
If Fate wants to play games, he’ll oblige—by corrupting the very weapon meant to destroy him and watching Destiny’s threads snap one by one. But could the real joke be on him?
Or: Beyond Cloudfall from Sylus’s perspective.

Summary
As Severus watches his godson unravel under the weight of the Dark Mark and his father's expectations, he is reminded of his own past. Draco’s growing isolation confirms what Severus has always known: the line between good and evil isn't always clear, and prejudice can be found even among those who claim to be staunch supporters of justice.
But while Severus survived his own tormented youth, will Draco be able to do the same? How much can one endure before breaking?
