I can't believe these two had an entire marital spat in the middle of the battlefield. They're so ridiculous.
I bet the rest of them spent the last 200 turns just watching them squabble the entire time.

maría is a queen she’s an icon, she’s a traumatized teenage girl who lost her home and family twice and rose from the ashes as a ruthless general willing to do whatever it took to reclaim her home and get revenge. she’s manipulative, she’s deeply emotionally intelligent and vulnerable and kind, she’s an unapologetic villain, she’s the most morally righteous in the entire saga, she’s completely unhinged just for the fun of it, she’s the most coldly intelligent person imaginable, she’s in love with jasper, she’s using him for his power, she’s literally everything pLEASE

I’m so sorry to neil josten, the boy who hates all sports but exy, because i’m about to drop a sports crossover comparison with hockey and my guy jack hughes, who has ICONIC responses to media questions after games (honestly, just look up jack hughes interviews, they’re all gold).
for example:
journalist: did you know [this player] was just one point behind you and if they’d won they would’ve passed your record?
JH: I didn’t know that -_-
journalist: did you know you had 8 goals in the last 5 games?
JH: I did know that, yes -_-
OR
JH, hollering to someone off camera: get outta here!
journalist: they’re probably waiting for a ride from you to get home!
JH: yeah probably. somebody tell him to buy his own damn car
OR
JH, after losing 2 games at home: yeah we got whacked, the last thing we want to do is stand in front of you guys [the media] -_-
OR
journalist: what can [the devils] do to gain a little more consistency [...]?
JH: I mean we’re on a 9 game heater, I’d say we’re doing okay -_-
I COULD GO ON. sadly my favourite boys are out of the playoffs now, but watching the jack hughes responses just give me life, for the neiljosteniness they provide in real life. tell me our boy neil wouldn’t deadpan savage the reporter. we know he would.

It’s been quite a while, Traveler. A fortnight ago, I asked myself if you would return.
Here you stand.
I implore you, my friend, please rest. I’ll get you a cider. Go sit by the fire. Let it warm your weary bones, and take a deep breath.

Thank you for your answer, and thank you for putting so much thought into that 💞💞💞 mal and nia are my main LIs and at first I was really glad that at least two members of the party stayed with each other and mb even got closer but I can see how it would be annoying and/or sad for people who romance one of them exclusively. I think that I mostly just want to see eeal bonds between our party bc idk it just feels a bit hollow? In the first book they were just thrown together by chance but a whole year has passed and without MC there to hold them together it just shows how much less there is with exception of some banter and general sympathy towards one another. I also think that excluding Threep and other non-romancable characters from the main friend group makes most of the dynamic in choices hollow bc lmao all these people are here to try and fuck us and no one cares about each other beyond that. I don't really like TRR or TF but I feel like friendship was so much richer in previous books, like those two series, OH and TE - and in PM they managed to create a poly route where I could feel solid platonic bonds between people other than MC and LIs (Sloane and Hayden, Steve and Hayden or Damien and Nadia). Or mb I'm just a bit underwhelmed with the current plot course in blades lmao (sorry for rambling around the same three thoughts I just can't seem to gather my thoughts on this whole thing together 🫡)
I’m so sorry, I meant to respond to this sooner. But no, I completely get what you’re saying! You made some good points.
Even though all of these characters were kind of thrown together in book 1, personally I did feel like they were more like a family by the end of it. And I think that’s one of the reasons why everyone loved Blades so much. However, I do understand why the bonds aren’t as tight in this book. It makes sense for there to be some distance between everyone after what happened to MC and the apparent strife it caused. But I feel like they haven’t done enough to fully bring the group back together again and reform those poignant emotional bonds.
As you basically said with the exception of some banter and general sympathy towards one another, pretty much all of the focus is on each member’s relationship with MC alone. And even those relationships are very one sided with each person relying on MC for support, but not giving much in return. When the main cast is tied together by genuine relationships with each other rather than simply all waiting for their turns in MC’s bed, it’s really great to see and makes for a better book overall. That’s why the Pend Pals are still my personal favorite friend group to this day.
I will say that I actually don’t feel like the relationship dynamics in Blades specifically are hollow because everyone’s trying to sleep with MC though. And maybe that’s because I’m only romancing Mal (and flirting with Aerin on the side). But yeah, I think it’s because the writers have really been ignoring the opportunities to capitalize off of emotional beats (which I’ve said a few times before) rather than the characters just not having more to their relationships at all

Oh embraced beast claws are fun, the beast meter seems to fill up way faster.
...which is bad if you're full of hubris.
I haven't really used beast blood pellets much because I don't care for the increased damage trade off, and also because I'm funny about consumables in general (the fact that bloodborne doesn't replenish your consumables from stock automatically doesn't help this) but having it on permanently with the beast claws has been pretty nice. Made really short work of Living Failures, Maria, and even Laurence (though I switched back to Ludwig's Blade for phase 2)
