Just full of ✨ Thoughts ✨ over the development and progress from when you start the game to when you finish on how P/Carlo just evolves, and kinda just thinking on some internal stuff on how I would like to write him.

How you start and he's just P, he doesn't know his purpose, he just knows he's being called somewhere. Lost, alone, faced with peril and made to fight when he hasn't even stepped out of his "birth place". He wakes up and he's just handed a sword. And he fights. At the start he's very much this empty slate; A newborn stumbling through Krat, and despite the man who calls himself himself father saying stuff like "Krat isn't how you remember it--" He really doesn't 'remember' anything at all. What is there to 'remember', he wonders?

And then he starts to get the memories-- they're not his but also... they are? They feel so close and yet so far away; Foreign and yet familiar. And then he hears a name whispered: Carlo-- and his whole world shifts right from under him. He feels sick, the name makes his head spin. The voice to have said it makes his head spin all the more. And bit by bit. He remembers. Not all of it, but... he remembers enough.

And he's hurt by what he remembers.

But by the end of it, after he claims his own freedom, after everything is resolved, and he returns to the hotel, he doesn't feel fully like Carlo-- doesn't feel at all like "P", either. He woke up not too long ago, and suddenly his life is flipped in its entirety. He's neither, and yet he's both. He doesn't know who he is anymore, but the name sticks. It's all he has left, even if a part of him feels some strange form of imposter syndrome, somewhere deep down... But he doesn't like being referred to as Geppetto's Puppet, either. He's not a puppet, not anymore. He's human, albeit, a different kind of human.

So just Carlo, is fine with him, even if he's changed far beyond of who-- and what-- Carlo was.

'--an Ergo puppet can have a second life and become another kind of human--' He just needed now to decide just what that second life meant for him, now.

#Lies of P #Lies of P Spoilers #Just digging deep while dumping all my thoughts into a word document but also kinda #thinking on how... I want to portray him? How I saw him through my playthroughs of the game.#Sophia in her letter at the end specifically mentions:#“The fact that an Ergo puppet can have a second life and become another kind of human requires more time for people to find out about it.”#And while she's probably referring to herself? Aren't we too referred to as such by Giangio/Paracelsus?#So by extension... yeah. Second life. But by this point Carlo doesn't even feel like 'Carlo'#It's like waking up one morning as one person and then suddenly getting slammed with memories of your past life #and going 'well shit now who am I' because literally just this morning you were 500% convinced you were someone else #Hurray for identity crisis!! Even if lowkey! He just goes on and does his best c':

victim/killer (crane/crab)

[ID: two digital drawings. the first one is of sayaka maizono from danganronpa: trigger happy havoc. she is standing against a bright red background, with one hand raised in the air, and another behind her, gripping a knife. her fingers are crossed, and she is staring straight ahead and smiling. sayaka is colored in monochrome, aside from her hands and the knife she's holding, with are bright pink. behind her is the silhouette of a crane in black

the second drawing is of leon kuwata, also from trigger happy havoc. he is standing against a pitch black background. he is pointing towards himself, as if to say "who, me?" and is also holding a knife. he looks confused, and is colored in monochrome as well. like sayaka, his hands, and the knife he holds are bright pink. behind him is the bright red silhouette of a crab.

Headcanon that after Vanny is free of the Glitchtrap virus, she doesn’t go away and instead, Vanessa and Vanny are a system and share a body.

#fnaf vanny #fnaf vanessa #fnaf #fnaf security breach #five nights at freddy's #I honestly thought that this would be a more popular headcanon #maybe i just can’t find the right tag but there’s so little fanfics of Vanessa and Vanny being a system #i just like the idea of Vanny no longer being a malicious force and finding herself stuck in a body with Vanessa #who straight up is terrified of her and everything she stands for #but they learn to depend on each other #and also Gregory can absolutely tell the two apart immediately just by body language and it confuses everyone how he just psychically knows #i saw this one fanfic where Vanessa was a system before the whole Vanny thing and Vanny just joined them #and before it was Vanessa Ness and Brad (in reference AR Vanessa and her ‘fake boyfriend’ from the AR emails)#which i thought was a banger idea

Sabine: I spent five years fighting alongside someone who called himself “Jabba the Hutt.” But just when I realized that I’d fallen in love with him, he was taken from me...and I haven’t seen him since.

Leia:

Leia: Uhhh...yeah. That’s a real shame. Huge bummer. The galaxy is definitely worse off without Jabba in it. They should totally lock up whoever was responsible for...ya know...putting an end to him.

Sabine, sobbing: Someday we’ll be together again...I just know it...

Leia: I wouldn’t get your hopes up.

#Leia to herself: “I always thought she and that Bridger kid looked kinda cute together…shame she caught feelings for a slug instead.”#later Sabine brings Ezra back and jokingly refers to him as Jabba and Leia is just like “good thing I didn’t strangle your bf after all!”#anyway Leia and Sabine having two very different sets of experiences with two very different Jabbas cracks me up #in a silly dad joke sort of way #sabezra #sabine wren #leia organa #sabezra incorrect quotes

#spy x family #sxf #yor forger #thorn princess #tumblr polls #okay in case you didn't know: Yor has references to sleeping beauty #first ref is her code name. Thorn ironically being what put the princess to sleep while it's what Yor uses to put others “to sleep”#Technically her weapons aren't thorns but they could seen as one with her being “the rose” and her stilettos the “thorns” she uses 2defend #herself. Also the rose being her signature flower shown both in her headwear her pin and her assassin clothing #The less obvious fact is her maiden surname #Briar is the name in Little Briar Rose. The ENG title translation in the german version of this tale #Another fun fact considering Ostania is based on Germany so obviously none of these were coincidences #At first I thought the rose could be one of the emblems of the organization as a whole or in general #but after seeing the shopkeeper the only resemblance I could find between his design and Yor's is that both wear those daggers accessories #Yor wearing them in plain sight as earrings while the shopkeeper has them hanging from the ends where he ties his apron behind his neck #so maybe those are the emblems much like that symbol with an eye is to WISE #Of course given how the organisation is called Garden I suppose one of the main themes are plants/flowers/nature #Which has me wondering if other characters may have tale inspo as well or Yor is one the few/only who has references to a tale #it could be something that appears frequently perhaps? Just like many spies have code names related to the different times of day 🤔#anyway this is just a chance to bring the topic and see if others are cooking theories. Feel free to shout your speculations here #sxf manga spoilers #just in case #god now I want to make a sona just to shove on them all my interest about flowers and tales #MY BAD the shopkeeper has the stilettos (?) hanging at the ends of the strings to keep his hat in place ☠️

obsessed with the idea that all 3 a.rcheron sisters had ringlet style curly blonde hair as infants and children, eventually growing out of the curls but not quite out of the unruliness

#i think it's one of several reasons nesta fashions her hair the way she does #if it's not up she's always found it unmanageable and that's just Not Done #how her sisters can manage beautiful hair she's got no clue but probably it's luck which she's never in her life had #even as fae it's hard to break those habits and she wouldn't dare use magic to glamour herself more than she already naturally does #i've always said she keeps her hair up because of trauma but also certainly out of decorum and ensuring she's always presentable #the day someone gets to see nesta with her hair down is the day they know they've earned her trust #she's also frightened by the prospect of anyone other than herself handling her hair and on top of that hair is just personal #which i find very fascinating because the illyrian culture that i am working on determines hair as very sacred #rituals involving hair care and styling are very common #god fucking forbid i reference fucking g.ame of t.hrones but isn't there that thing about braids and rank or whatever #inch resting thoughts me thinks.......

Sometime a couple months ago I was looking through a bookshelf with one of my friends and I found a book that was titled literally just “boy” and the situation went kinda like

Me, showing her the book: “This is my coming out.”

Her: “You’re boy?”

Before she could even do anything else she proceeded to put her weight on the shelf below her and that entire portion just came fucking crashing tumbling down and books went absolutely everywhere

#Best coming out experience I’ve had /silly #Sometime I wanna draw it I think it’d be infinitely funnier that way #Armageddon rambles woah #anyway. Story time /silly #It’s still so fucking funny I think about occasionally #later she told me she always kinda knew LMAO #And that she’d sometimes accidentally refer to me as a boy to herself and i thought that was neat also

Strong world is the nami and luffy twins manifesto written by oda this is my one piece.

You see luffy's finishing attack with his giant hammer being fueled by lightning which is nami's main weapon with her clima tact and she even made the guy steer the islands towards the cyclone so even if the lighting isn't produced by her the lighting is provided by her either way so luffy AND her finished that guy and even luffy attacked after nami announced how he will lose which also means nami knew and trusted luffy to end him after that and of course he did and

Oh my god luffy making nami explain herself about the message he left on the tone dial and being pissed that she didn't trust him to save and protect her but he got so mad and didn't hear the whole message and she asked luffy to save her omg....... she knew after all that they will come and win..... I love this ending I am going to walk into the sea now goodbye.

Why are whitebeard and ace on the ending credits I already cried. Watching aces part again cause he looks so good. Hello alive dead wife

#the animation in this one..... hell yes.....#img little luffy i missed you!!!! robin doesnt look like herself in this one and franky doesnt have his voice 😞😞 what a disrespect in his #first movie appearance....... franky i will avenge you. your fit is hard tho. well his voice could be his va with a cold. its weird #why is brook smoking a blunt ajdhsksj and sanji tease......#the 3d is too good here.... and someone wants nami bc of her abilities instead of like well everything else.... i might accept this #sanji going insane ajdksjsk zoro what are you wearing on your head......#love the duck following nami like well a baby duck... omg i thought if the duck electrifies the animals in the water nami is fried too #and indeed he was i didnt expect it to follow logic ajdhsj nami found luffy of course #why is nami on top of luffy ajdhsjs doesnt she trust the bird to fly or what #THE BARTENDER FROM THE PIRAGE RACE MOVIE IS HERE TOO!!!!#nami getting arlong flashbacks but now worse #kinda love the crew being protective over her and not to fall into stereotypes but it goes off every time.... they got her away form arlong #nami and usopp omg...... nami once again sacrificing herself... suffered more than jesus.... also her bracelet... i didnt know that #luffy is so mad.... he gets so mad when people leave.... (he gets sad but ofc he cant be sad so next best thing)#NAMI GOT SICK FROM THE TREES!!!! WHAT THE FUCK WAS THAT!!!#they got changed and everything..... did robin tell them they had to follow the dress code and they all did?? qjsjaka luffys first cape also #luffy that was such a slay. why are they all carrying fire power. he called them a suicide squad... and well a lot of them actually #wasnt expecting this to turn into a mafia movie. surprised luffy knows how to shoot one of those.#nami isnt gonna sacrifice herself luffy said... while she rigs epxlosives in a place she cant move.... luffy she needs an intervention #oh my god. nojiko telling her to have fun.... every time i remember luffy promised gen san to keep her happy i die a little #luffy is gonna get a stroke he is so fucking mad 'nami ill beat this guy and well go back together' ok 🥺🥺#sanji understands perverted gorilla 😭😭#brook got robin instead of sanji.... sick ennies lobby reference bro #also how come franky didnt get his own movie.... like in this one franky AND brook join. confirming my theory that brook doesnt let franky #get confortable in the crew and be with them as the new one for a while bc brook joins immediately after and he doesnt get time to breathe #nami don't cry omg.... she was ready to never see them again omg #i thot nami was gonna electrocute him..... or make him eat the cyclone or smth.... well she said her peace at least #talking tag #watching one piece #watching one piece movies

started testing out procreate! not sure how i feel abt it so far but this is my first real stab @ it. just wanted to make some ocs that were moirails :3

#homestuck #homestuck oc #fantroll #ouroart #apologies if my handwriting is a little hard to read T.T #anyways a little bit of trivia in the notes 4 u guys:#siydel's name is a corruption of “citadel"#and then Aegiss (aegis) is the mythological shield associated w zeus & athena #because she considers herself a “shield” for people who she believes have been wronged #deelia's name is less thought-out i mostly just thought deelia sounded nice + vehlox is a corruption of velox #which is the specific name of the swift fox. & since she's an oliveblood i figured i'd throw in an animal reference & a fox just kinda fit #cause she's very cute but she can be very cunning and strategic if the time calls #type of girl to lose at strategy games like chess bc she's not very competitive and doesnt try too hard #but the second theres an emergency she's like the most (outwardly) calm person there and is already working on a plan of action

ok final verdict tiger and bunny 2 is really good and a huge improvement on the og HOWEVER. lunatic's ending was bizzare rushed depressing and went against everything his arc was pointing to. like it felt like some hayes code contrived bullshit

#he did not have to die and thematically should not have died #like his whole arc was changing his view on heroism so why was the ending just his og stance taken to its logical conclusion #also i keep refering to lunatic w fem pronouns in my head lol girlie looks eggy #but yea her ending should have been changing to heroism for the sake of saving ppl rather than punishing them #and not punishing herself #like who thought having her kill herself bc the ghost of her abusive dead dad told her to was a good idea #also she should have transitioned and started going by luna bc thats fucking cute ty kotetsu #tbh i think her arc was planned to be longer but the writers realized they didnt have time for it so. sorry mentally ill abused girlie #ur killing urself #OUTSIDE of that though i liked everything else #could have used an extra episode or two though #suicide mention #i got emotional at the taibani end but my brain was chewing too hard on the lunatic stuff for it to actually hit #they shoulda been a trio #ACTUALLY one more thing kotetsu barely ever used his power he could absolutely keep being a hero without it #and we should have like had an afterwards where he like advocates for useless NEXT rights #or something #once again it feels like this show was made to explore way different things than it does #like its not built for the racism allegory sorry it just doesnt work well #theres an argument for it being disability/ neurodivergence but it really just felt like a race thing #also rip fire emblem lmao she got hit w every kind of discrimination in that universe #sucks shes an oil baron #tiger and bunny spoilers

okay I've decided against pursuing any sort of diagnosis re: my growing suspicions I have ADHD/something of that ilk for a variety of reasons, but it will NEVER stop galling me how I lack object permanence. like a baby. I need to have clear storage containers because if I cannot see something I forget it exists. it's both a relief to know that there is a potential "explanation" for such behavior but also realizing that most other people can do convenient things (like: remembering the existence of stuff) is also FRUSTRATINGGGG because I wish that was me! imagine being able to remember things not only casually but well! imagine that! god!

#it's also frustrating because it can bleed into interpersonal relationships and depending on people's friendship styles it can have a...#large impact. like back in high school my best friend would regularly be hurt by me not remembering things #(ranging from stories she'd tell me to stories I'd already told her to people's names to pieces of information I'd been made aware of)#and I took it personally at that age and sort of took it as:#''I am an inherently selfish person who can't remember things about other people and I am Bad''#and while that friendship grew apart and she sort of resigned herself (eventually) to me being the way that I was #I guess I never really let go of my guilt around it... and even now I still feel Very Bad about not remembering things #and I've often thought to myself of how I could mitigate it to be a better friend #but I short of ''keeping notes on your friends and the stories they tell you which you will need to reference often''#I've not had much luck in cracking that #I feel like as I've grown older I've found friends who (for whatever reason) don't take my ''poor memory'' personally #[and hilariously I've seemed to befriend people with FREAKISHLY GOOD memories who more than make up for my own]#and that's been... a bit better because it's been many years since I've had a friend make me feel bad for not remembering something #and in fact I have friends now who HAVE diagnosed ADHD who (obviously) Get It #but back of my head I still think that I do the people around me a disservice by not frequently/accurately committing things to memory #I think it makes me a worse friend and a worse employee for that matter #and I do in fact wish there was a magic pill that would grant me that ability and that ability only. it feels like it would change my LIFE.#anyways this tag essay is brought to you by:#me looking for my concert earplugs (which I have never used despite buying them FOR three concerts I went to last year since I kept...#say it with me... forgetting about them the day of the concert!) and finding a stash of two different battery types I had no idea I owned #anyways. earplugs are going into my car so I will have them on me #and batteries have been moved to the clear container in my closet with the other batteries. sigh.

a dream of flight

Inspired by @tali-zorahs's art of Laerryn and Loquatius, 1223 words about their first dance (and what comes after).

It has always been easy for Laerryn Coramar to take the lead in her life. She has always charted her own course, probed and tested every limit with a methodical and exacting eye for detail.

Centuries after her city falls, other arcane seekers will find bits and pieces of Laerryn’s machinery and puzzle at their intricate workings. Even with the whole apparatus before them, it is doubtful many would even begin to comprehend what the Architect Arcane has wrought.

For each system within the arcane engines, conduits, and capacitors of Avalir is optimized by her hand, forming a beautiful design that is as elegant as it is functional. And of all the people in this city—a city filled with mages and artificers and all manner of brilliant arcanists—she is the only one who can see it in its entirety. And she is the only one who sees what it could be.

It is her gift to be so singular. It is her burden to have no peer.

So Laerryn is accustomed to leading.

And yet. When Loquatius Seelie asks her to dance, she thinks to herself—it might not be so bad to follow, once in a while.

It’s not for his slick words or his effortless charm that she trusts him. Laerryn has known many schemers who have wielded charm like a ornamental knife that one realizes too late is not just for show. No, it is the man between the masks who intrigues and perplexes her in equal measure. It is the light shining through a multitude of stained glass faces whom she wants to know better. And to be honest, he is the only genuinely interesting person at this party (with most of the other guests ranking just below the hodmedods in terms of their capacity to carry on a stimulating conversation).

“Would you care for a dance, Madame Architect?” says Loquatius, all perfect teeth and meticulously sculpted cheekbones. She wonders idly if he’s focus group-tested different facial structures to find out which ones people found most charming and/or trustworthy. It’s not lost on her that he’s chosen his words carefully so that he can spin them as cheeky or deferent, depending on how she responds.

As she’s pondering this, it takes a few seconds for her mouth to catch up to her brain. “Um. Yes.” She blinks. “That sounds good. And just Laerryn is fine. Titles are…” She hesitates to say unnecessary, because she has worked damn hard for this one.

“…titles are for strangers,” she concludes. And even though they have only known each other a few weeks at this point, the words nevertheless ring true. Even now they are not strangers, and for all that is to come, they never will be again.

“All right. Laerryn, then,” says Loquatius. “I hope it’s all right that I take the lead here? You’ll have to forgive me if my moves are a little out of date. The last time I visited this plane, this dance hadn’t been invented yet." He shrugs apologetically.

Laerryn pauses for a moment, trying to figure out if he is joking or not. Analysis: inconclusive. She ultimately decides it’s irrelevant and nods politely, taking his hand as he leads her gently out onto the ballroom floor.

Right on cue, a new song begins to play. Out of the corner of her eye Laerryn sees the music is coming from a small ensemble of self-playing five-stringed instruments, their strings a fine gold and synthetic alloy and their sound amplified by a permanent sonic enchantment. Her thoughts shift briefly to their construction and whether similar techniques might be incorporated into some sort of maintenance apparatus for the engines that power the city.

She doesn’t have much time to dwell on this particular bit of spellcraft, however, as her eyes meet those of Loquatius (he has been graciously waiting) and on the next downbeat he is sweeping her into the dance.

Though she is capable, she’s not used to dancing the follow role. Her first instinct is to take control, ensure that the right sequences of steps are executed precisely on time and in tempo. But Loquatius, flexible and fluid as he may be, is no pushover, and there’s a playful glint in his eyes and a smile on his lips as he deftly redirects her momentum into a pivoting step that whips the two of them around in a tight orbit.

She wants to calculate and analyze and predict, to calibrate the torques like she’s done so often in her laboratory-cathedral beneath the gilded city streets. That would be easy. Natural. Familiar. But she looks at him—sweet Avalir, she looks at him—and decides instead to follow his lead.

And take the lead he does. Loquatius is light on his feet, endlessly creative with his steps and generous with his cues. He is smart and confident and decisive and he’s never been more attractive. In this moment, Laerryn thinks of the twelve Eldritch Batteries that power the city’s engines, and she thinks of the weaving channels and circuits through which their ether flows.

That’s how she feels now, in his arms. She is raw distilled potential, flowing in an intricate design towards a distant goal that is simultaneously impossible and inevitable. On a night much like this one and not too far off in the future, her city will fall. Laerryn Coramar-Seelie will fall, and her beloved with her.

But in this one shining moment, they are here and they are together and they are flying. And nothing else matters.

As the music comes to a climax, Loquatius spins her to hook her right arm around his neck, shifts his own hand to the small of her back (she can feel the steady pressure supporting her weight), and lowers her into a dramatic final dip. They’re both a little out of breath and a little sweaty (though the latter is easily cleaned up with a bit of Prestidigitation), and she looks up at him through a bit of a haze.

Gradually, he helps her back to her feet and they make their way off the ballroom floor.

“I hope that was as good for you as it was for me?” says Loquatius, and though the innuendo’s not lost on her, Laerryn also observes there’s a sincerity in what he says.

“Yes, that was… actually really fun. Thank you for the dance.” She can see the wave of relief wash over his face, though it’s immediately replaced by that picture-perfect smile he loves to wear.

“Believe me, the pleasure was all mine. Guess I’ll Seelie you around, Laerryn.” He flashes a pair of finger guns at her, then turns to rejoin the party.

As she watches him walk away, Laerryn runs a quick mental calculation. If he leaves, it could be weeks before she sees him again. But if she stops him now, maybe their fun doesn’t have to end just yet. To be honest, it’s the easiest calculation she’s ever done.

“Hey, Quay?” she calls out. “You doing anything later?”

He stops. “I mean, just schmoozing and boozing like you do at these things. Why, you got a better idea?”

“I might have a few. Quick question, though. Academic curiosity,” says Laerryn. “As far as your shapeshifting abilities go: is your face the only thing you can change?”

#critical role #laerryn coramar-seelie #laerryn coramar seelie #(without the hyphen)#loquatius seelie #loquaerryn #exu calamity #note: i refer to her as laerryn coramar at the start because (at that point in time) she's not married yet #for the record this can also be the night they bang in a closet #do i know how to write smut? no #but can i deliver elaborate descriptions of choreography as a metaphor for intimacy? absolutely #also the stained glass metaphor is one that brennan has often used for role-playing and i thought it was appropriate #i was uhhh thinking about the 'brat meets soft dom' description of loquaerryn and puzzling out what that might look like in a flirty dance #the obvious answer: have laerryn follow and reorient herself to the role #writing

sorry for low res images cause I took this from a playthrough video but. dolores dei and hydaelyn im connecting the dots

#not to say they are the same at all in both what the story wants them to be and who they actually are #AND in the type of stories they belong to but #same ideas taken to different ends #like i know why people who think venat is evil think she is because they see. THIS in her #i.e. holy figure whose unfair arrogance and alienness is wreathed in divine love #but while DE's entire concept of dolores dei exists for you to alienate everything you associate with it #hydaelyn draws you into her heart herself and is shown to be genuine/less holy than functional/aware of her fallibility #and operates in a 'but in the end i was not able to find a better way but you guys can' vs dolores'...influence being. totally ubiquitous #even centuries after her death. i always thought it was interesting how the people on hydaelyn tended not to really worship HER either #their deities are something else and the way they refer to Le Crystal is just different #meanwhile dolores dei is explicitly worshiped as a holy savior and the godking of the golden age #you can say hydaelyn also demands accordance rather than faith because she rewrote the laws of the world but. gesturing oddly #anyway. I can NEVER STOP TALKING about ever

crying at work today bc i had a sudden realization about tenshi as i was retranslating aru sekai shoushitsu. noticed the word saisei used in both songs and had a thought. like. the whole rebirth type theme really does tie to her. its not just the umareyou mou ichido melody as lyrics at the end of the song its in the other lyrics as well its in the first ou line in aru sekai shoushitsu. she has something to do with this. so say she is the reason they get second chances. we also now get to answer the other question i had, which is if the other's are people and they can lose that and therefore no longer repeat, does tenshi have something to lose? and i dont like the answer i got. shoushitsu calls it a "major sin" and since she's an angel naturally theres going to be a punishment for that. we know the song starts with rain, and rain is our symbol for this whole calamity, both end and beginning of it, but it doesnt end with rain. it ends with the motif. it ends with the world going dark. at first i thought u know well yeah if u die in one world its going to go dark before u wake up in another. but i think this is different now. & i draw ur attention to the art again. the umbrella- she was a safeguard, but theres nothing left to it now. its useless essentially. shes sitting not standing, shes not fighting anymore. shes crying but she's also smiling- like shes made a decision she doesnt like, but shes sure of. i think she self sacrificed for them. she wanted to help, to give them a chance, but in doing so she passed limits she wasnt supposed to (similar to what happens in laboratory but more specific to her).

#aru sekai series #CAN I PLEASE HAVE ONE. O N E FAVE CHARACTER WHO LIVES. IN FUCKING ANYTHING #u dont understand this hit me in the MIDDLE of my shift and i immediately teared up #i love how im never right about her character but everything i discover something closer to the truth my opinion on her never changes #i dont believe in unconditional love but this might be the closest to it #I KNEW SHE WANTED TO HELP BUT IT WAS MUCH MORE TOLERABLE WHEN I THOUGHT SHE JUST. COULDNT.#THATS THERE WAS SOME BARRIER THAT STOPPED HER #but to think it could be. that nothing else worked. so she gave herself up.#i love walking into the end of the world series and being surprised when my heart gets ripped out #i dont think theres a single song in this series that doesnt give me a crisis when i actually think about it #i still have no idea how shes connected to apoptosis chara. but if their relationship is not causing problems for each other then What #i WILL find out #also spoilers but the secondary parts of the ou lines in shoushitsu are 100% referring to apoptosis #also hit me like a brick today #im back only to say this bc i already bothered emimin all day about it but i still havent processed it & need to yell about it
