Thoughts on the Twin Jades’ relationship as kids/teens/adults (any of the above or developing over time)
honestly my first thought on the Twin Jades relationship right now is that, unfortunately, I only find the bad/unhealthy/conflict-inducing parts of it interesting. Like, I know that they very much deeply care about each other, but I only find that interesting if it's in a weird fucked up incest codependent way, and usually I only find their conflict enjoyable, so I feel like I tend to focus on/exaggerate negative aspects of their relationship.
with that grain of salt taken, I think that their relationship... ended, in a way, right around WWX's death and all that happened there. They lost trust in each other because it was a huge conflict of what they personally valued (and both of them, imo, have very good reason to be fucked up over the events). They still love each other, and have a sense of duty and family left (to an extent) but it's... more a memory of love rather than active love. Forming a mutually respectful and caring relationship as adults was just not in the cards, what with all the canon events. So to me it's a very tragic thing by the time we see it in present-day canon; the 'Twin Jades' is such a concept, but the substance and truth of that concept is gone.
