YOOOO IS THAT MARIA CLARA AT IBARRA
—Klay, probably
A LITTLE BREAK FROM OC CONTENT!!!! I've been obsessed with this story recently, Klay is literally the character ever man I need a Klay in my life. I only listened to like 60% of my lectures for el noli but when I do recognize something that happens in the story I go like THAS THE THING!!!!

part of liking elibarra is acknowledging the uncomfortable truth that they would never work out in their universe. not just bc of the obvious real world implications but bc they simply clash too much. ibarra may try to look past that (as seen in him inviting elias to run away with him abroad) but elias knows its simply not possible. they are worlds apart.
ibarra has caused elias so much pain, even if he had no intention of doing so. he hurt him by being part of the eibarramendia family, by thriving at his family's expense. he hurts him by being dismissive of his pleads for reform, by siding with his oppressors, by chiding those who he deems below him- people that are just like elias, reduced to criminals. and he will hurt him again by being capable of change, by being someone worth saving. if ibarra continues down the path of violent retribution, he will hurt the many eliases of the country. elias knows this, and jumps off the boat anyway.
ibarra will hurt elias again and again and again. but elias will always choose to save him. because it's the right thing to do. because he has a real chance at sparking the revolution, even if their ideas of how it should happen differ massively. because unlike elias, ibarra was not made to suffer.
what im saying is jose rizal was a pioneer of toxic doomed yaoi

Thinking about my Rizal prof earlier saying, "I dream of the day we no longer have to relate to Noli and El Fili" because honestly, it feels like nothing has changed, only having a different packaging. Change the names and descriptions, change the time, it still feels the same to be honest
