One of my favorite new things is people playing Path of Exile 2 who have never played the first one opening the passive skill window, and discovering it’s not so much a skill tree as it is Skillokigahara.

I'm sorry if you've answered this before, but have you read the new Lelith Hesperax novel. Aka official published warhammer 40k drukhari toxic yuri. And if so, what are your thoughts on it? It reminded me of Ennui quite a bit in places.

I have not, but you are not the first person to tell me it reminded you of Ennui, lol.

Okay, I swear I don't necessarily mean to hijack this away from Kuroko and Chiyo, but this is a perfect explanation for why I write my Lux/Jinx (Lightcannon) fanfics with the tag: Lux is Crazier, because to me, in order for the crazy character in question (Jinx or Kuroko) to be truly loved, there has to a tacit acceptance that who they are doesn't need to change (even if objectively maybe it should).

I truly believe that Chiyo, by some measure, is genuinely crazier than Kuroko, and the reason for that is because Kuroko has a constant kind of waggish, mongrel nature to her. You get the sense of a dog chasing a backfiring Pontiac in a lot of Kuroko's actions--even the reasonably well-thought-out ones. She follows her desires above all else. A true Chaotic Neutral (tending towards evil) character. Chiyo, by contrast, knows exactly what she's doing. There is methodical, premeditated intent in Chiyo's approach to loving Kuroko. Chiyo knows exactly what kind of person Kuroko is, knows what she does, and not only does not try to stop her, but she doesn't really seem to want to because, in the end, she loves Kuroko. Chiyo loves every wicked, nasty, crazy inch of her. She doesn't necessarily want Kuroko to change, even though she knows there's only a bad ending down that road. If Kuroko became better, it would also mean she would be different and might not be Kuroko Koumori anymore.

And that's the core of Lightcannon to me, too. When I write Lux, I make her Crazier because you have to be Crazy to be in love with someone who's as crazy as Jinx and not also be trying to fix her or treating her like a project. Replace every instance of [Chiyo] in that above paragraph with [Luxanna Crownguard], and every instance of [Kuroko] with [Jinx], and it reads the same. Is that healthy? No. This is Toxic Yuri. But that's the thing: This, too, is yuri.

I need you guys to understand just how bananas this one character arc in the manga murcielago is. okay so imagine the following: for the first 22 chapters, this character, Chiyo has appeared on panel almost EXCLUSIVELY in the context of having sex with her girlfriend, the main character, Kuroko. She barely has any personality outside of being a girlfriend.

So far as we see in half a dozen entire arcs, she doesn't even know about the crazy action hero shit that her gf gets up to at work, or that Kuroko regularly cheats on her. We don't get a single glimpse into who she is as a person. The framing would have us believe that she is just the latest in the string of vulnerable woman that Kuroko has taken advantage of. I'd written her off as a flat cliche ages ago. But then, after 22 chapters of doing almost nothing but get head, Chiyo suddenly reveals that she knows exactly what's going on. She hears that Kuroko is going to investigate a cult full of evil lesbians, and she's like "My girlfriend is a horny idiot. she's gonna fall for every trick they have. She needs my help." Then she pulls out the samurai skills that she's apparently had this entire time, and kicks in the cult's front door to keep her girlfriend under control.

It's like the manga was using the misogynist cliche to hide her in plain sight. If they were always planning to flesh her out, why bury the lede? It's just such a unique move that I don't know what to make of it. It feels like a plot twist, but it's not. It makes perfect sense that the girlfriend of an eight foot tall serial killer would also be pretty wild.
