I know some of you will say “that’s not a dad bod” sorry to rain on your parade but it is: His body has clearly changed and it was changed by embracing his new life as a father.

So yes, yes it IS.

Anyway lol this sketch came to be thanks to Amanda @yishinghime who wrote a delicious, scrumptious, oneshot of Loid(Twilight) going through changes in his physique after leaving the spy life and feeling uneasy about them, he didn’t count on his wife who loves him just as he is, and can’t just wait to reassure him.

THE SHOUJO FILTERS

THE SHOUJO FILTERS PEOPLEEEEEEEEEE

How do I look outside : How I'm inside:

He’s been panicking for two whole chapters. He’s surrounded by SSS. He's running out of ideas. He knows if they catch him, they’ll either torture or kill him. There’s a long con mission riding on him getting out safely. Of course he’s stressed and willing to do anything possible to get out of that party.

Why is potentially tranquillising someone his biggest sin? HE’S AN ACTUAL SPY PEOPLE. He has a body count!!! He’s not some squeaky-clean law-abiding citizen. Tranquillising someone is not out of the realm and would honestly be pretty tame on the list of Twilight’s crimes. It's also not being painted as the heroic thing to do here anyway. It's a desperate act. So the outrage seems disproportionate to me. Like, that man is a spy. He is not thinking straight. He is not normal. He never has been...

Also, it’s a comedy. What about that setup and Endo as the author tells you it’ll be played straight? Tranq probably wouldn’t even work on Yor since she has a strong immunity to poisons and sedatives. Plus, Twilight is not getting off scot-free. This chapter is literally him suffering the consequences of bugging and interrogating Yor disguised as the SSS agent earlier in the story. He is well acquainted with karma by now.

AND he has chronic gut issues.

Anyway, this is my favourite panel from the chapter. Look at him. Pathetic loser.
