It's still... complicated
A continuation of this. For Retribution, this time. My Sidestep's name is Margo Becerra, and they use they/them pronouns.
I just really love Ortega's/Sidesteps dynamic and the whole mess of complicated emotions those two have about the other. How Ortega has made Sidestep feel like a person, like human, but that also made their recapture all the more painful and grueling as a result. How they crave that feeling of belonging that he gives them, but they also resent him because they know they never can belong, they'll always be an outsider, a cuckoo. How they had feelings for him for a very long time, but also hate him for burdening them with this attachment, for making them yearn for something they can't ever have.
And how Ortega has grieved a person who was so important for him for years, realized too late he loved more than anybody else, and now can't properly handle them being actually alive. The same, but also so, so different in a way that is painful to witness. And how he knows something is going on, that they're barreling towards something bad, and he doesn't know how to stop them. But also knows if he can't, he will not survive their loss a second time.
And uuuugh I can't wait for Book 3 to see how this all will develop now that in my ending it all has been laid out in the open, and they have to come to terms with what it all means for them.

Dating Ortega as Sidestep and Puppet at the same time is the funniest thing i have ever seen. You are Ortega’s partner. You are Ortega’s sidepiece. He is lying to you. You are lying to him. No matter who he choose it would be always right choice because he would choose you. No matter who he chooses it would always be the wrong choice because he wouldn't choose you. He is cheating because it's another person. He is not cheating because it's still you. He is using you. You are using him. Its both extremely funny situation and extremely concerning.
