Wh... is Gil flirting?????

[applescoven]

Gil shooting his shot and it going over Mio's head for a few seconds xD Mio, pls, the embarrassing humanoid is doing his best 😅

I don't blame Gil for asking questions here, like what do you MEAN you can't CONNECT to other Excessans, he doesn't KNOW how your romances/biology works or if that's even a thing that can happen :p

Poor Mio, though, it's bad enough you're not able to date the traditional Excessan way (kinda ace-coded ngl), but that others ostracize them like they're wrong or defective.

But I love that we basically all called it the moment Gil and Mio met; Michelle did say it was gonna get gay and sure enough...

ALSO:

Ava in the new chapter image is ominous :/ Ava pls don't do anything rash, there's child with us

There's this strange moment of calm close to the end of Sadness Prayer. Oriko starts the story thinking about killing herself (you don't spend your one and only wish on asking the meaning of your life unless you're convinced it doesn't have one) and spirals down from there - she gets the closest thing she ever had to a friend killed, she sets up a ridiculous rube goldberg machine plan that kills half a dozen magical girls just to get a glimpse of Homura's powers, she gets both her and Kirika's hands dirty over and over again until they're both broken past the point of caring about casualties - until finally she reads her father's diary, learns that half the reason he killed himself was that he was terrified of her, and hits the bottom. She goes to confront the man who framed him for his crimes and then in the critical moment she gives up on revenge and becomes free

For the first and only time in the manga Oriko drops her facade and lets herself be a normal teenage girl instead of the perfect cold ideal she's been forcing herself to be. She decides to leave politics to adults, she remembers that there are people in the world who care about her and repairs her relationship with her uncle, she admits to herself that saving the world was always just a front she was putting up to try to pretend her life meant something and that what actually makes her happy is living a normal life with Kirika... and then as if she's cleared away all her regrets and settled her affairs she plows right ahead into her plan for a school shooting double suicide finale. She turns her girlfriend into a witch, tries to fight four magical girls at once, gets an entire school's worth of random civilians killed, finally succeeds in preventing the apocalypse by killing Madoka, and dies pointlessly throwing her body in the way of a blow that would have hit Kirika's lifeless corpse in a useless effort to protect the happiness she's long since given up. I'm going to be obsessed with her forever

I remember skipping my 4th hour class nearly every day for the second semester one year because my 4th hour was gym first semester and I could go there and play and run and have fun because the teachers thought I was still in the class.

I loved gym class so much, more than any other class, including art class.
