Bro, we are cooked. The knight that dogs the prince's shadow like a dark and silent wraith just knelt to press his forehead to the prince's hand. Yeah, now he's uttering a prayer whose recipient is ostensibly God but in reality is the deified version of the prince that exists only in his mind. Aaand the prince just caressed his cheek to preemptively grant him absolution. I gotta... I gotta get out of here.

Knight who seeks to get injured in combat so she can be tenderly held by her Lady but she keeps absolutely killing it out there and she's too honorable to throw a fight

“What? Like, a disabled protagonist? How would that even work? How could someone with a disability be the hero in an action show?” local anime trash boy wonders while sitting next to his box sets of Full Metal Alchemist, showing no hint of irony or self awareness.

Not to get too philosophical, but I'm afraid Nietzsche cooked when he said: "If you kill a cockroach you are a hero, if you kill a butterfly, you are evil. Morals have aesthetic criteria." Because I'm pretty sure that if the archaic depictions of Medusa would me more mediatized and famous compared to the classical ones where she looks more human and beautiful then people won't get that appalled by the fact that Perseus killed her even though he had no other option. They need a cosmeticized and overdramatized version of her, because otherwise they won't have any empathy for her.

Pre-menstrual depression is always depicted as like "He He! I had a box of icecream bars and cried while watching the Titanic!" But in reality, it's more like, "I'm standing the edge of an abyss. There is nothing good inside of me, I'm filled with rage and desperation."
It's crazy that being told how to deal with that is never a part of anyone's menstrual sex education.
