rewatched the vod and i am so intrigued by elq and cucurucho’s dynamic. elq seems to flip between amusement and annoyance. cucurucho doesn’t answer his questions but it does follow his orders. the minute he realises the others are coming to the train station he tells cucurucho to get out of there

How to tell someone you don't want to be friends anymore

[the-shadows-request-candy-corn]

Okay so that's the interesting part to me. Would it TRULY be Shabbat, or would it just be another day named Shabbat? How philosophical or literal are we taking this?

Or would G-d just not be tired after not having to work on the intricacies of multicellular life for several more days, and instead move on to another project somewhere else in the universe? Or, similarly but differently, if G-d wasn't worn out on the seventh day but instead was taking a day to marvel at all he made: would G-d just have not been impressed enough about a world without cyanobacteria to step back and enjoy His handiwork before moving on to making a raining glass planet? If G-d had never had to figure out how to make a coagulation cascade work or what exactly he was doing with the Precambrian fauna, would He have ever gotten tired or frustrated or satisfied enough to stop?

it's not saturday but i wanted to post this before going offline for shabbat ✡︎⊹ ⋆ﾟ

“It’s not a very good strawberry flavour” xe says on, swishing the toothbrush all around xer teeth, doing a decent job for someone who had not brushed xeir own teeth in over a year

Xe glances up to stare at Doc for a moment, yet says nothing, simply brushing in amiacable silence until xe spits, accepting the cup he offers to clear her mouth

"See? Doesn't your mouth feel nice and clean now?"

oh yeah his core is still there, but in the 100th i think there is no way that being good would equate to tesilid being true to himself, bc that would be betraying the truth that he'd lived for the past 1000+ years - that being good was thankless and only brought him pain and betrayal. at least he got all this out his system by the 117th! (ignoring the shape he was in when he emerged from that)

i think one thing rly fascinating abt Reed in the village was that he didn't force the villagers to sacrifice someone. the truly sadistic villain move would have been to egg them into turning on each other and picking someone, and then watching the despair in their eyes as he kills all of them anyway. but he lost interest the instant he saw that no one would sacrifice themselves, and didn't milk the sadism out of the situation. idk i think it says something about his priorities. or maybe he just didn't have time to play with them for that long.

(tags from my prev rb:)

tbh idk if hearthfenrir might be willing to take that political suicide in the previous rounds by sheltering tesilid. im keeping in mind that the hearthfenrir we've seen so far is hearthfenrir the grandpa, and not hearthfenrir the duke. it's a given that heartfenrir would happily move mountains for ailette, since for so long he thought he'd lost his daughter. and anyway it's ailette's birthright to take advantage of all the duchy has to offer her anyway.

in this round hearthfenrir obviously loves tesilid, but that's because he sees tesilid as his grandson-in-law already. his aide did mention that hearthfenrir is a very amiacable grandpa, but we also know that he's capable of being very strict and heartless (in the past, to Elthea). Maybe he's mellowed out already (especially since it must've been 30-40 years), but he's still capable of it.

And taking the Duchy's political relations into account: both Hearthfenrir and his aide seem estatic to have Ailette set up her parish there, which means that they don't have a church not because they don't want to, but because the Vatican doesn't. The aide also seems pretty sincere in asking Ailette for her blessings for the family, even sharing personal information, which means that at least the elite within the duchy genuinely believe in the religion. In all likelihood, they've been trying to appeal to the Vatican for some time already but have been unsuccessful. I think it would take a lot for them to trash whatever progress they'd made so far by taking Tesilid in, especially if Tesilid is going to just meekly get kidnapped again, as he seems prone to be doing. But also maybe in a world where grandpa didn't get converted (since Ailette doesn't exist), the Heartfenrirs wouldn't care about the Vatican idk.

either way it rly does boil down to Tesilid being a pushover tho lol. I don't think he'll let himself ask for help, and even if he does get help he might not stand his ground when the Vatican inevitably tries to kidnap him back.

and also maybe Tesilid doesn't want to ask for help bc he's already been betrayed so many times.............................. really makes me wonder how the Saintess managed to win him over and join his team when he was already so jaded by the 80+th round. Maybe just by the sheer practical utility of her healing skills, and then her personality after.

thinking about reed's worldview & morality makes me feel sooo insane this guy contains such multitudes it's crazy

(major spoilers for reed's backstory)

like i mean when you take into account all of tesilid's timelines you see him at his lowest and then get up from it and you realise that hey his lowest was pretty low but it really is so far from his default. he did commit atrocities but like it's not an inherent part of him. when he decided comitting atrocities wasn't worth it anymore he did just stop, because being evil wasn't really very important to him anyway.

my read on reed's motivation is that it's not really about him being evil and wanting to cause pain, but a desperate attempt to save himself. i don't really see all his mass murdering as him being inherently evil tbh because like. he had saved the world 8+ times and all of that reset. what is the worth of other people's lives, when any joy they experience, any pain they felt, would no longer exist except for in his memories? i think to reed, every other person becomes like a video game character. it's perhaps disturbing but the immorality of killing them is a little suspect because death and suffering doesn't even have long-term consequences for said person anyway. reed causing some massive destruction is just... morbid entertainment? reed certainly smiles (smirks) more than he ever does as tesilid. glad he's having fun(?). like everyone in the timeline is going to die anyway according to his plans, and they and anyone else who lived didn't have a future even if he did fail, so what does it matter if they died now or not.

but even after he's become uncorrupted tesilid again, it's still clear that he remains angry and vengeful. he chokes and scares the bandit leadee Just Because. The bandit leader in this timeline doesn't even know what tesilid is taking revenge for, so all that scaring is really just for tesilid's own satisfaction. Scaring the hell out of the bandit leader is important enough to tesilid that he risks ailette seeing this happen if she just turned around a little early. And in the pandora's box dungeon, he lied to the order of light pillars about having lost his memories about the sculptor's atelier, but "don't worry my memories are coming back!" There's literally no reason for him to lie in this particular way, if not to see them squirm. and he purposely leaves them with ailette, whom he knows will beat them black and blue for him. he's still going to sacrifice himself for others and put himself in danger, but he's not above some schadenfreude and taking delight in the pain of those who'd wronged him, he's not some saint.

he's still angry and vengeful but even as readers we rarely get to see this side of him, because there are things more important to him than revenge. And doesn't that say something about his capacity to love and to be good. Even after hitting the lowest of low, he still picks himself up. He cares about Ailette's safety so much and tries to get along with her family. I kind of wonder if he woke up and went yeah that "destroy everything" plan was kind of whatever let's try something else this time, and picked up his moral compass where he dropped it under the kitchen counter. his attitude to cardinal cartelyena dooming him to a really terribad punishment is really just "yah i was objectively bad so i don't even hold anything against you lol".

like. shakes him up and down. the way he decides to mass murder and then some time after goes actually you know what sorry god that wasn't very nice of me i think i'll be good this time and he genuinely means it. it's so funny he has such a range and it doesn't compromise the integrity of his character at all, his core still feels the same. do you get me. like he's always been intrinsically inclined towards doing good and he has a great deal of patience, but he can also snap and be angry and decide to just be evil but it also doesnt make his inclinations towards goodness any less real you know what i mean.

also he's so good at lying that it's funny. he's lying all the time and no one even questions it, because why would he lie? he's the pushover doormat who always sacrifices himself for others. the only way you would know that he's lying was if you already somehow knew the truth. and you sure as hell aren't getting it out of him. honesty being a virtue (generally speaking) and he doesn't have an ounce of it. and none of the people in universe would even consider it.

edit: i realised that it's not really accurate to say that destroying the world wasn't that important to reed anyway, because reed did expressedly reject ailette because he was so hell-bent on destroying the world. ah well we all have times when we hit rock bottom and he sure hit at least 500km past that. whatever, the point is that he did that and then went oh whoops let's not do that this time and genuinely meant it. what a guy. i love all the character development he goes through. and the great changes he goes through doesn't feel contrived at all.

I have the headcannon of Donovan and Esteban having a similar age and with their parents being doubles they should be doubles as well but they look nothing alike. No one would ever look at these two kids and think "wow they are doubles".

But while they are in all ways very different they grow to be actually similar in the small things, the way they hold a cup, their favorite flavor of cake, their first cursed toy or how they like when the strange shadow on the wall makes that very specific shape. And maybe they met. And they bond and they are friends now and Kevin isn't completly okay with having to see Carlos again after being abandoned, isn't completly free of the feelings he once had. They were friends or something more for TEN YEARS and no matter how long ago it was or how much he loves Charles, they still had a past. And Carlos isn't ready to deal with the fact he did sacrifice ten years for Cecil and NTV and they will never know is not ready to process the trauma and bonds and all this parts of him he repressed. And Cecil who may not know any of this but is deeply afraid of being unloved and alone and knows that Carlos almost didn't came back is terrifield Esteban will just enter the desert and go away and live a whole life without him, that he will lose his son just like he lost his mother. All while Charles is just confused and lost in all the things he never knew and complexities he doesn't belong to. And neither he nor the kids will ever understand the sacrifices this three are doing in their heads to keep the amiacable peace so the boys can be friends because is not Esteban's nor Donovan's fault.
