Whatever you do, don't think about the fact that the Lamb will never harbor any trust towards the members of their cult solely for the fact that anything related to the gods and the occult were the catalyst to the genocide of their entire species and any bond formed during their journey would remain null and void as they are immortal and mortal lives will be nothing but fleeting moments to them.
The closest to a companion they could ever achieve to have would be the Crown, the one thing that represents the power they never wanted and the God of Death that became his only salvation, only to make him face damnation.

Claude rant (ft. a Jennette rant in the end)
[ i posted this comment on one of the fan translation sites but i feel the need to do these 2 characters justice by posting it here as well. ]
Tiktok has pretty much made Claude into such a one dimensional character, putting him under the label as just a 'terrible father that did a lot of horrible shit to his daughter' like DUH, he's terrible sure, and but he has LAYERS. Readers forget that Claude suffered a lot from his own childhood and familial relationships, a weak and slowly dying mother, a father that probably only saw him as a spare, a brother he truly thought cared about him, only to end up betraying him, a fiance that never really loved him and even cheated on him with his brother, and finally- Diana. The one person that made him feel loved and made him LOVE, and suddenly she DIES because of an offspring that had such great mana that it killed diana, mana that she got because of HIM. OF COURSE HE'S GONNA BE SUPER FUCKING TERRIBLE, no one ever communicated with him, any sight of happiness always ended up being a bigger downfall than the other, Felix is probably the only balm to soothe his terrible relationships, and even then, Claude and felix still have tension between them because of the power imbalance as a knight and the EMPEROR. SO HOW TF DO U THINK, a child brought up in such a state of miscommunication, one-sided relatonships, political turmoil, relationships that hang on by a fucking thread, and not ONE person to guide him into being open about his own feelings and dealing with his trust issues??? OF FUCKING COURSE HE'S A BAD DAD, BUT HE'S A BAD DAD FOR A REASON, AN ACTUAL REALISTIC REASON. SURE HE DID A LOT OF BAD SHIT AND U CAN THINK HE'S A BASTARD ALL YOU WANT, BUT STOP FUCKING MINIMIZING HIS ENTIRE CHARACTER AS TO JUST BEING A 'HORRIBLE FATHER', he's so much more than that! he has nuance! he's go development! he's got LORE, lore that CAUSES him to be terrible and so emotionally constipated. DON'T EVEN GET ME STARTED ON HOW YALL HATE ON JENNETTE SO BAD, IF U WANNA HATE JENNETTE SO BAD, GO HATE NOVEL JENETTE, MANHWA JENNETTE IS JUST A NAIVE CHILD THAT WAS SHELTERED, AND USED IN EVERY CONCIEVABLE WAY BY THE ADULTS AROUND HER (The duke using her as a card to help the ducal household, claude during his amnesia arc only using her as a tranquilizer and couldn't careless about her as a person, her own father for literally CREATING her) she was literally MADE to be used, she wasn't born out of love and yet she has so much love to give, AND ISN'T THAT SO FASCINATING? WHY DON'T PEOPLE TALK ABOUT HOW GREAT OF AN EXISTENCE JENNETTE IS WHEN HER ENTIRE PERSONALITY IS THE EXACT OPPOSITE OF HER BIRTH 'PARENTS' AND THE ENTIRE CIRCUMSTANCE OF HER CREATION, DESPITE HER BEING USED OVER AND OVER AGAIN, SHE REMAIND OPTIMISTIC AND NICE, ITS NAIVE OF HER TO DO THAT BUT THINK OF HOW STRONG HER WILL AND MENTAL SOLITUDE IS, SHE REMAINS GOOD EVEN WHEN BAD THINGS HAPPEN TO HER, SOLELY BECAUSE SHE IS GOOD, SHE HAS EVERY RIGHT TO BE BAD BUT SHE REMAINS GOOD WHY DONT YALL TALK ABOUT HOW GREAT THESE 2 CHARACTERS ARE AND THEIR DEVELOPMENT? WHY DO YALL KEEP GIVING THEM LABELS THAT DONT COMPLETELY ENCOMPASS THEIR ACTUAL CHARACTER

Just learned about garden path sentences.
They’re basically a literary prank– the sentence starts out in such a way that you think you know where it’s going, but the way it ends completely changes the meaning while still being a complete and logical sentence. Usually it deals with double meanings, or with words that can be multiple parts of speech, like nouns and verbs or nouns and adjectives.
So we get gems like
The old man the boat. (The old people are manning the boat)
The complex houses married and single soldiers and their families. (The apartment complex is home to both married and single soldiers, plus their families)
The prime number few. (People who are excellent are few in number.)
The cotton clothing is usually made of grows in Mississipi. (The cotton that clothing is made of)
The man who hunts ducks out on weekends. (As in he ducks out of his responsibilities)
We painted the wall with cracks. (The cracked wall is the one that was pained.)

it's so fitting that Achilles' lyre was really Patroclus'. Patroclus was his connection to the softer things like music and love and joy. Without him, Achilles was a war machine. With him, Achilles was a musician, a lover, and a boy.
The music never belonged to Achilles because the lyre never belonged to Achilles. Both were bestowed upon him by his better half.

The true blasphemy of literature is the romanticization of romance. They make it beautiful—all soft words, and elegant lines—and enchanting, with magic sparkling in the margins.
And you can feel it in the depths of your soul, an unexplored ocean of laughter and tears and dreams all melded together.
The yearning of a kiss that brushes against the steady and so so warm pulsing beat of life—against the smooth skin of a lovers neck. The desperation to touch another being and feel that they’re alive, right there next to you—right there, and never leaving.
To love and be loved is a jewel among treasures and all that we each seek—all that we each desire.
It burns and it burns and it burns.
“I would know him in death, at the end of the world.”
“Come home and break my heart, if you must.”
“Occasionally, Fate pulls itself together again and Time is always waiting.”
“And perhaps it is the greatest grief, after all, to be left on earth when another is gone.”
“By you, I am forever undone.”
“One word from you shall silence me forever.”
“A heart’s a heavy burden.”
“My sweet nemesis.”
“If you have to go, you know I will go with you.”
and then?
and then.
The book is over.
And you remember that love like that doesn't exist.
Not in the real world.
And all you can do is cry.

do you call it 'soulmate' or 'I could recognize him by touch alone, by smell; I would know him blind, by the way his breaths came and his feet struck the earth. I would know him in death, at the end of the world.'
