calla “gender is kind of an unnecessary label but you will NOT remove me from this body or so help me” tuoleimi and anton “doesn’t matter what body you put me in i’ll always be just a little guy” makusa are a match made in… something

I think I might write a defence of Immortal Longings down the line but having witnessed the discourse around the novel the thing that has come to annoy me the most is how deeply misunderstood Calla and Anton's relationship is. A lot of people have complained about how their romance doesn't feel particularly romantic when that is the point. A relationship between two individuals with worrying amounts of unresolved childhood trauma and severe attachment issues struggling with giving purposes to their lives in an empire that has grown so large that the only way of mitigating the consequences of violent colonialist expansion is to commodify it as daily entertainment so that the failures of said empire as a system of governance go unquestioned. Traumas that are a result of that expansion driving them to participate in a government-funded death tournament where only one person can win, to use victory in that tournament as a final fuck you to the soullessnes of the empire for denying them their humanity. Partnering with the other as a strategy whilst still being hypervigiliant of the existential threat they pose to your goals only for that to devolve into an obsessive emotional codependency driven by sexual attraction, lack of proper social interaction with other people, fear of loneliness, and a deeply flawed understanding of what romantic love is results in a volatile and unstable relationship which is the point. The relationship progressing at an absurdly fast rate is intentional, their in a death game which puts their romance on a ticking time bomb and establishes how their speed running a relationship because of that poor conceptualization of love and even worse communication between the two planting the seeds of their doomed romance long before it sprouts. None of that reads as romantic or sexy and THAT IS THE POINT. It is a a very unhealthy relationship between two terrible toxic people. The author thought whether something good can exist in a foundation that broken or will it all fall apart under strain would be an interesting question to ask, as a writer known for writing enemies-to-lovers dynamics to twist the trope into something far more uncomfortable and nasty to explore the interplay between obsession and love and how it means nothing in the face of overwhelming differences of ideology, ethics, and, identity and that you can't love someone into agreeing with you

I think all of Chloe Gong’s female characters should get to go to a rage room together. As a treat.

Calla's eyes are royal yellow. There is a big deal made of that fact. Whyyyyyyy are her eyes royal yellow?????!?!? I can't believe I have to wait like a year+ for the second book in this series, I am going fully feral and chewing through the walls.

Hey, Chloe Gong? How dare you write something that felt simultaneously like being punched in the face with acknowledgment but also being gently hugged by acknowledgment, so much so that I now need to go question some things

#immortal longings #chloe gong #flesh and false gods #like what the fuck how do you pick words straight from my brain that I’m not even aware are there
