"Temptation was a ravenous beast."

Poderia começar essa review em dizer que não julgar o livro pela capa era a primeira regra de uma raposa, a segunda muito provavelmente seria não ficar de costas para um loiro de um cinquenta com olhar de assassino e que eram justamente as coisas que Jean Yves Moreau falhara miseravelmente.

Para quem conhece a escrita de Nora bem sabe que nada é tão simples como parece ser e muito menos tão clichê quanto os fãs podem soar ao tentar resumir a saga esportiva de um fugitivo da yakuza, mas acho que o que ninguém esperava era que o garoto que morria em todos os universos menos esse se tornasse um fã favourite. é complicado dizer que the golden raven pode muito bem ser minha nova releitura favorita sem sentir que estou traindo a trilogia original, entretanto, o fato de que depois de dez anos da primeira saga, nora continuou a me surpreender em quantas informações é possível colocar em trezentas e cinquentas páginas e manter o ritmo quase desconcertante de acontecimentos. Jean tem um humor maravilhoso, a lingua afiada como um belo francês - de marselle -, a capacidade de notar a todos a sua volta menos a si mesmo com as cores que eles começam a demonstrar que o mundo pode ter. Ele não está mais no Ninho, vermelho não precisa tingir tudo o que toca, mas será que é possível aprender a respirar de novo enquanto se está seguindo um destino que mais uma vez foi escolhido por você? é essa a pergunta que paira durante cada capítulo e nos afilnge com quase a mesma intensidade que o receio de saber que nunca uma história que tem exy no meio será simples. Qual a próxima tragédia? Os Corvos seguiram caindo um por vez ou ainda lhe restam forças para vingar quem eles entendem como traidor?

Seja o que for que o[s] próximo[s] livros nos revele, apenas posso dizer que Jean está para Exy como estou para esse livro: incapaz de existir em qualquer plano que não seja devorar as palavras de Sakavic e tentar compreender a jornada de amadurecimento desse corvo dourado. (E morrendo com cada apelido maluco que ele coloca no Neil, sempre uma coisa insultante, nunca o nome do ruivo desbocado)

"The bell sounded, the ball dropped, and Jean stopped existing for anything but the game at hand."

“It was the first place she could truly call home, and they took that from her,” she finished, so soft Jean might have imagined it. “They destroyed something she doesn’t know how to lose.” [sakavic, 2025]

ㅤㅤㅤ❝the pain is determined to ache.❞

I can even say how much this move means to me, not because of Hazel itself — even tho sometimes I do get her more than I would like to — bit because this kind of pain, knowing the one you love is dieing and you can't do a shit thing to avoid it, is in my bones since I was a toddler; but also knowing you are dieing too, I don't care if its metaphorically speaking or just fighting against itself everyday, is something only a small infinite of people could understand. this movie and book are my home, even tho I am not able to cry anymore. and the guys dialog for her will be forever ingrained in my mind cause I know I would say that for someone too. I also fear oblivion, Mrs Waters. Guess we all do in some degree. (5 / 5 ✬)

I don't think I can say it to anybody, but I feel I can say it to you. I feel like I can say anything to you. (HER, 2013)

I've started a personal project of watching at least one movie per week and despite it's been hard to do it - cause i'm not in a focus moment neither a "want to watch new content" - this is the second movie of the year.

What can I say? Well, Phoenix is being a wonderfull actor as he always were - can't even try to hide my love for him, I'm trying to watch his life work since 2020, so I'll enjoy this challenge in his company; The photography is insane, the colors, the light, the way the story is being tolded, you can feel and don't feel at the same time, it's weird, it's lovely, it's brutally cruel sometimes. I would use the gifs in rp if I had the stamina to learn how to cut videos, and i could not help but draw some passages that stucked with me. I hate what theo did, i can understand the situation, I was moved by Samantha, I'm terrified by Sam; I was thinking that for a decade old movie it was pretty accurate with how we are as society nowdays. That's scary. To love is scary. Definely not my favorite movie of Phoenix, but it is good. I would just not recommended to whoever poorless soul reads her to watch it at night as I did. Not a great choice haha. Also, does anyone else got the connection with Scarllet being an AI OS here after she made Lucy - the superintelligent human that end up as a pendrive in 2014? Does Sam "dies" to live as a stupied human-pendrive-intelligent-useless-form? No, okay. I'm getting streched here. (4.5 / 5 ✬)
