#‘tis but petty writerly complaining pay me no heed

I’m glad people are enjoying the Fionil post but I do want to say just for my own peace of mind that I don’t think it’s actually like incredible nuanced amazing writing to detail out a side character’s nuanced backstory in a separate, supplementary release.

The fact that those details show through in the manga is cool and shows how much care Ryoko Kui seems to have for her characters, but it’s more like a “she puts a lot of thought into her blorbos” thing than a “she’s an amazing writer & dunmeshi is an incredible work of perfectly detailed fiction.” Thing.

She is and it (often) is, but that’s for other reasons. Fionil is just fun.
