IT’S ABOUT THE PARALLELS. IT’S THE ORION/EL - EL/LIESEL PARALLELS.

It’s the bonefide, card-carrying hero crashing in your life when you’re busy being as selfish as possible to keep yourself alive, keeping your head down so school doesn’t kill you. It’s being utterly alone until someone comes around and gives you an excuse to start saving people. It’s having to be the sensible one in this relationship because your dumbass hero keeps trying to get themselves killed. It’s telling yourself you’re only being sensible when you’re really being very fucking selfless actually!!

#The Scholomance #it makes me insane that Liesel is basically El in the first book.#tells herself she only cares about vengeance.#running behind El whacking her in the head when she tries to be too selfless.#at the first chance of giving up her life's goal for the chance of helping people; she tosses it straight out the window #And it drives me insane El is basically Orion in this scenario.#someone who is good and selfless that comes crashing into Liesel's life #and steals her heart essentially.#not in a romantic manner.#but you tell me 'You know I like you' isn't Liesel speech for 'You are my dearest friend in the whole world'#YOU CAN'T. CAUSE IT IS.
