I actually have a whole. Lot of ideas with em both that mayb I’ll be brave enough to share one ov these days

27. What was a part that made you smile?

Aaaaa, so many things! Nat and Trencil’s little arc is super lovely. Gillis is such a friggin cutiepie??? Trevor is so much and all his dialogue is gold. Putunia existing makes me smile. Babua on the ceiling. Growing the lily in your room and seeing it progress every time you give it what it needs. Most of the item hints you get from the fortune teller Carla made me smile too, and also I just like the way she talks! (special shout out to the “ur ugly lol” fortune for making me laugh rly loud)

so many things!!! I can’t even think of all of em to list.

The first few arcs were paced really well and had a great control of its cast, but an arc with some of the worst pacing on the planet (8 Precepts) followed by political stuff followed by writing that just straight up doesn’t make any sense (Gentle criminal) which barely survived on its very early-canon-esque B-plot about the school festival which was pretty good in every respect, followed by MORE boring political stuff that goes nowhere and a redemption arc for a character who didn’t need a redemption arc, and even if I wanted one it’s so half-hearted and vague and totally meaningless thematically and only really serves to prop up a character who was only just now introduced (Hawks) who is linked to YOU GUESSED IT POLITICAL STUFF but that no longer matters because there’s NEW villains based on some political stuff that is actually relevant to the stuff that’s been built up and tells us more about the most iconic villain in the story but oh did you want this to reflect on the events that happened before TOO BAD they are now antagonists to the LEAGUE OF VILLAINS who are now the UNDERDOGS and oh maybe its because it’s going to be about the doctor and HIS relationship to all for one so the 2 antagonists can create a full pictuNOPE they’re going to throw down or some shit and also none of the themes make any sense and the ones that do are completely incoherent and there are so many characters who have yet to receive definition and I’m rapidly realizing 90% of the character appeal came from fanon because the manga refuses to ruminate on ANYTHING that happens or any of its characters and I don’t think Horikoshi even understands the concept of a story having themes & arcs that reflect each other and I didn’t even mention Bakugou’s arc happening non-linearly and almost entirely off-screen so you have a Good Antagonist, Good Broken Relationship, and Good Rival all happening out of fucking nowhere with ZERO sense of progression other than the fact that their relationship is different now and let me die! let me die! let me die! let me die! let me die! let me d

Noctis can’t sleep, which is what brought him out here to the training arena at this time of night. It’s good to know he’s not the only insomniac (hah); the Glaive he sees practicing with kukris is familiar enough, if only because he’s one of the most-known of the entire Kingsglaive. Nyx Ulric. Noct considers it as he runs through a few drills with his Engine Blade. He should make conversation.... Try and connect, since they’re both down here in the liminal hours between late and early. It feels rare and somehow special; the kind of bond you can only forge in the grey hours before the sun has risen. Something rare and kind of precious, a thing that should be acknowledged- the two of them, too restless to rest.
