2024-09-17 18:07:58 +0000 UTCI was caught off guard by B's! I know that the MC's friendship is important to B, but now I'm feeling like MC's is more like a lifeline to them. I hate that the MC trapped them in Fernweh, while B's priority is the MC and getting the MC out safely. J's also really hurts me because even though I don't romance J with Jam anymore, I always imagine that their friendship means so much to the both of them and that their friendship can't be broken. It DOES hurt me when I think of Josh and Jane because I feel like they socialized each other, two kids who didn't really get along with anyone else but they had each other. Josh's childhood memories are always hand in hand with Jane. S's doesn't surprise me, but I hope we get to talk to S about how seeing the MC's burnt house affected them. I hope the MC's house now being a part of nature eases their trauma. I saved R for last because I can see them sliding into fake friendships and superficial relationships so easily. The Great Gatsby of it all. (When I think how January would react, she would legit start crying if she read that) Mal's response is so intriguing. I'm used to them walking away, but what is the answer? π

2024-09-16 17:35:47 +0000 UTCπ₯ΊB? J? My beloved, R?? Gosh, the domino effect, no MC, means no S or J, so no normalcy, means R turns into one of them rich, nepo babies that doesnβt have the talent or drive to do anything with their connections π pls donβt do that to them ππ Itβs good to know that S will be the same, but to know that the fire gave them trauma π Double whammy π I like to think that S wouldβve eventually found J and they bond and R would eventually also join once they see how much mutual understanding that S and J have π thatβs my hope. (B is outta luck tho, my poor baby ππ₯Ί)

2024-09-16 13:35:47 +0000 UTCI have so many feelings! π I wanna wrap R. up in a blanket and bubble wrap. π₯Ί And J! AAAA!! π₯Ίπ₯Ίπ₯Ί Even more blankets and bubble wrap. π The more vague hints we get about Jβs parents the more Iβm squinting at them. Especially in other posts where the word βtraditionalβ is used. π Iβm just saying they better be nice at the dinner or my MCs are gonna get catty lol. Especially my J-mancers and BFF MCs.

2024-09-16 13:35:05 +0000 UTCOkay, so, B and R's answers absolutely gutted me. Their friendship with the MC helping B grow? The way the MC offered normalcy to R, someone who didn't need a dedicated schedule to just hang out with them (never mind that R still needed to make it a rivalry to sort of justify it in their own mind, which is even sadder because for my R-mancing MC, Sparrow, all R had to do was ask and he would've gladly just hung out) ahhh my heart π’ππ But then, as if that wasn't enough, J's answer comes in with a last minute suckerpunch πjust the idea that without the MC, there might not have been anyone to really make that effort and reach out to them, thus pulling them out (if even just a little) of their own self-isolating tendencies. Ugh, you can't keep breaking my heart like this (except yes you can because that's what I signed up for). Not entirely surprised that S would largely be the same, though I'm curious how without the trauma of the fire and such they might act. And not even shocked that Mal would refuse to entertain such a question, why self-reflect when you can self-deflect, right Mal?

2024-09-16 13:27:25 +0000 UTCThe character growth with B is such a beautiful thing to witness. With Bs abandonment issues too? Them both relying on each other warms my heart I highly doubt Alex would be nearly as well adjusted without Becca as well (which is saying a lot considering.... how they are in the tfs canon so far β οΈ) Im so happy at least S wouldn't be changed as much. While the MC is important to them, S is their own person with their own self contained self They *choose* to be with the MC regardless if they were close or not I think its sweet in a realistic way (Skipping R rn because I have THOUGHTS) As someone with a horrible habit of self isolation, Alex understands the feeling immensely but thats not something they would wish on someone (specially not J) They are also happy they took a chance on her, because Jane remains someone deeply important to Alex despite all the years away from each other They would dread thinking about a world where they didnt befriend J Mal Mal why are you like this Mal im gonna start chewing on furniture You ever do something and in that exact moment you regret all the previous decisions you have done that led to that moment? Thats me with this question while reading Rs section Fun fact: A Lone(ly) Rival was the writing that convinced me to sign to patreon. I desperately wanted that insight on their childhood and on the rivalry. So it has a very personal and important space in my heart NOW IMAGINE THAT WHILE IM READING Rs SECTION "Someone to look out for on the playground rather than watch out for; someone whom R would create competitions for if only for the chance to have a person agree to spend time with them on a whim instead of on a schedule; someone who treated R more like R than the Verner heir. There is so muchΒ here as to why they chose you above everyone else." Aelsa I shall never be the same I think this unlocked something inside of me that did not need unlocking. Im almost crying π₯² I did notice there seemed to be some themes of drinking or addiction on their character playlist and ive been wondering about it ever since. You can even choose to take a swig of alcohol with R before the spriggan fight. This is the one time im not happy at being right Not even having J or even S (one of the people they're closest to in canon) because they came about with the MC? It truly would make it a miserable lonely experience Oh I *dread* to think about C having more influence in Rs life. Yes Im Cs defense lawyer, yes I dont want them to take anymore part in Rs life than they have to. We exist. I think Alex, someone who despises vulnerability, someone who numbs their feelings so much, would actually genuinely cry if they knew THAT was how much impact they had in Reeses life The fact they despite how awful they believe themself to be managed to make such a positive impact on Reeses life like that? It would gut them This was so good I feel awful π€£ thank you Aelsa π
