Imagine loving someone so much, that given the opportunity to change the past so that they would never have died, you refused, because it would erase the precious story of your life together, and who they were as a person.
Like—damn—I never cease to be awed by this writing.
no bc did you know about elliot nightray and how he was the first one to call out oz's self sacrificial bullshit for what it was and tell him that you'll hurt people if you dont care about yourself and just give up and how elliot died bc he didn't want oz to have to shoulder his life on his back and how elliot's last words were an apology to leo and how despite being dead elliot's pressence is still in the story to the point where leo starts to fight back against glen because he doesnt want to erase a world where elliot exxisted. did you know
Even if you don’t believe in the elleo/vanoé reincarnation faith you can’t tell me the concept of having her next manga be about a duo, a double protagonist story wasn’t from a great interest in elleo’s relationship. And wanting to explore that idea more. Because at one point, they stopped being side characters. It really felt like elleo were the protagonists of their own story that just happened to converge with Oz’s.
