speaking of rue. the other week i was like heheh when i thought about how kraehe is always trying to embrace her role / the power that she can access by leaning into it and Creating Drama for the story but like, in the middle of her peak theatrical villainy someone will just be like "hey :/ what's wrong :(" and she has to leave

#like of course does she not only think this is the only role she can have and that #for her to be able to do anything she has to Accept That Role; but like. of course the way she approaches this is by navigating The Story #and playing along with its rules and that Drama and Conflict are encouraged around here lmao #but also! her Antagonists here are people with tragic fates while....unclear if kraehe herself has a Story(tm) counterpart.... #but it's like. keep setting up Conflicts and turning the story gears b/c tutu will vanish and the knight will die #but obviously rue is not Really happy like this; and that whole theme about like #hope vs despair and loving someone vs trying to control them #where kraehe's argument being like. ''you don't have a choice but to be with me b/c you're the prince and i'm the princess'' #plus ''also you Have to b/c i'll do whatever it takes to make sure it happens even if you try to choose otherwise'' don't win the day... #fakir not always having a world of success just confronting kraehe head on as that villain lol like #also the issue of ''he's not going to have that much success trying to accept his own role as the knight'' etc etc The Themes #but if you're like ''hmm are you okay. are you Some People Are Theatrical Villains....To Cope rn'' #she's like well. g2g #like classic incidence when she was just really dramatically inciting yet another Group Confrontation lmao and like #using mytho as a physical shield when fakir goes for the sword attack and mytho's just like #in the middle of this entire thing like Whoa Hey. kraehe what's wrong :/ #and she still has every Advantage here / really no reason to bail but she sure just leaves like nvm!!! lol #princess tutu #then fast forward like 15 eps when mytho goes from all ''i hope you die i hope we both die'' or w/e that lyric is back to ''damb :/ what's
