I kept reading about those principles and he's a Perfect example of them. down to the T. #Soma is Exactly what society wants from a samurai and as a bushi I don't think anyone could pinpoint something to dislike about him #Soma is the upholder of all that's traditional; while /Naotora/ is the one paving a path to the future with all the changes it entails #he takes bits and pieces from other cultures he comes across and applies them; he also tears down some traditional rules #It's good that Soma and Naotora exist at the same time bc the people have the Both of them to look up to. the best of both worlds truly #Also my wifi is going haywire and not letting me open much so I'll be heading to bed and checking my notifs/dms when I wake up <3 #BLOWS KISSES TO ALL OF U!!! good night
