Many misinterpret Padmé’s sense of duty to be loyalty to her position as a revered politician when that’s not the case. At least not at the crux of it. She’s not OW, she doesn’t feel a sense of responsibility for duty because of her affiliation. She stays out of care and her own strive to see justice. Padmé genuinely wants to help people, and she knows she can make differences because of the influence and power she has. She would feel guilty for leaving her responsibilities high and dry for someone else when she knows she’d be better off getting it done. But deep down, she’s always wanted to get away from all the politics and duty and run away with her husband to the Lake country. And often times Padmé uses those same said “duties and responsibilities” of hers to distract herself from always thinking about Anakin.

It’s the same with Anakin. Anakin isn’t loyal to duty and responsibility because he’s a Jedi, even if he tries his hardest to believe in that, his inner core was always about wanting to save and help people. That’s part of why he even wanted to be a Jedi in the first place. When someone is in danger, he can’t watch them continue to struggle. He wants to save them and fix their situation. Which mirrors Padmé’s ideology of peace and justice. They both do it out of passionate compassion, not because they feel obligated to a certain group, even though what they both want is to just run away together and live their lives in peace side by side. But they know people rely on them, and it’s the goodness in their hearts that stops them from making selfish decisions.

thinking about stan twins and nicknames... I like Lee as a nickname for Stanley, but the more I think about it the less I can see Ford using it. he's really more of a full names guy (except for the odd first initial)

which brought me to the idea of Caryn coining the Ford and Lee nicknames when they were little to "balance out" Filbrick only ever calling them "Stan." I think later she'd switch to exclusively using their full names once they got older. when it comes to talking to each other, Ford went the full name route, and Stan went the second syllable route.

Doing my reread of Nona and I love how much everyone recognizes the goodness of Camilla and Palamedes. Like it's one thing to be outside the story and be like 'holy shit these two are awesome and also try so hard to do good!' But how a wide array of very morally grey characters around them and want so badly to protect them because of how good they are. But they can't wrap them in safety. They are incredibly active agents and too competent to try to leave out. Sure Blood of Eden tries not to see it, but even Pash had to somewhat acknowledge it. Pyrrha and Corona go to such lengths for them.

In a world too complicated to be just Good, these two try. But that doesn't mean they aren't willing to get their hands dirty. I love that moment in the school when Camilla asks Pash if she shouldn't be trying to kill and Pash is just like, 'no you can kill then' lol and then they did.

I mean obviously Nona is the MOST good but she's also missing a lot of what makes her hard as Nona soooo

Just what's been floating in my brain today. La de da

Some cute Ai/Hikaru and Aqua/Kana parallels I found as in they have friendly banter

(spoiler ch 140)

Ofc both Dynamics are very different but they just banter over the most silliest things, and Ai and Hikaru were just downright petty when they couldn't decide who was weirder out of them both Hikaru just resorted to pointing out Ai's mismatched socks😂while Kana just likes to tease Aqua over the most insane stuff that are somehow true most of the time.

There's also this

Hikaru/Ai also have a lot of parallels to Akane/Aqua as well but that's for another post

I'll just drop in these cute pics as well because why not?

Also side note my exam is tomorrow and they only informed me today now I have only a day to prep 😭

Thinking about the family and Euphrasie talking to each other as Siffrin recovers from craft overuse. And the one thing I keep coming back to is wishcraft and how much everyone shows they know about it.

Like the family only knows as much as Loop told them while Euphrasie dug up her knowledge. Don't have the brain to work out the exact math but I'm imagining everyone in the room carefully gauging each other's answers and how much of their hand to show while Mirabelle stands there in the corner smiling at her superior like yeah! Glad to be home and everyone's safe and sound (:

“Mungojerrie and Rumpleteazer don’t even look exactly alike how can their owners not tell them apart”

The implication in the lyrics was that by the time the owners got to the scene of the crime the deed was done and they couldn’t tell which cat had done it. The whole point is that they can’t tell the cats are collaborating and that enables them to succeed again and again. Them looking similar is a bonus.

“Or after supper one of the girls suddenly missed her Woolworth pearls

Then the family would say, "It's that horrible cat!

It was Mungojerrie or Rumpelteazer!"

And most of the time they left it at that”

Even later, the family and cook are only notified about Mungojerrie and Rumpleteazer’s actions after the fact. They didn’t see anything happening.

“When the family assembled for Sunday dinner

Their minds made up that they wouldn't get thinner on

Argentine joint, potatoes and greens

Then the cook would appear from behind the scenes

And say in a voice that was broken with sorrow

"I'm afraid you must wait and have dinner tomorrow

The joint has gone from the oven like that!”

“Then the family would say, "It's that horrible cat! It was Mungojerrie or Rumpelteazer!" And most of the time they left it at that.”

The song even ends by stating the family can hear the destruction they’ve caused but haven’t seen anything. And so they can only discuss who it could’ve been and move on.

I think this also answers another common question I see which is “why do Mungojerrie and Rumpleteazer’s owners keep them?”

“It’s that horrible cat!” Cat, as in one cat. Not two. They think only one of them did it and don’t want to get rid of both their cats if one is “innocent”. So they keep them both and ponder on.

The Horizons stage show in AnimeJapan 2024 (last year) was interesting and the bits with Friede and Amethio's VAs are still on my mind. They got to talk about their battles and their characters in general. (The event took place one day after the initial broadcast of HZ044 and before chapter 2 ended and thus reflects the events of the anime at the time.)

Either way, Horie Shun (Amethio's VA) talked about how Amethio changed through his battles with Friede. How Amethio battled out of a sense of duty at first, but gradually, feelings of frustration and his personal desire of wanting to win began to develop inside of him.

And Yashiro Taku (Friede's VA) talked about how through his encounters with Amethio, Friede grew to respect/acknowledge his will/conviction even though they had different objectives at the time.

Very interesting insights from their VAs, hopefully the same this year too.
