if summer’s childhood is narratively important, feels like a coin flip whether she’s from vacuo or mountain glenn

i keep gnawing on malik the sunderer -> sundered rose and mumble mumble the man who stared at the sun being a fable that originated in vacuo placed after the warrior in the woods (do what you can to help others / nothing worthwhile comes without sacrifice / if i get this right…)

i also keep gnawing on the echo of mountain glenn in the razing of vale and how quick yang and ruby are on the uptake about mountain glenn and… we don’t know how long ago that happened, but if it was ~30 years ago summer would have been like. a child. ten or so. the inner circle knew the wyvern was there; ruby’s most powerful glare coincided with pyrrha’s death; if witnessing death empowers the glare, and summer was a child orphaned during the fall of mountain glenn, and the wyvern was petrified for decades… question mark.

Okay but, I watched the Ayakashi Bakeneko arc again with a friend, joking that "haha, it's Medicine Seller's first day at a new job so he's different from the Mononoke series". And when we get to the point where the Bakeneko shows its Reason this is how he looks at it all

All of his joy and optimism, gone. He was actually lighthearted before shit hit the fan, flirting with Kayo and teasing Odajima. But now it's like this enlightened creature realizes for the first time what atrocities humans are actually capable of. It's just disgust and disappointment. No wonder he's so different in the Mononoke series, because now he has expectations for what his job is gonna be like

I'm always so fucking depressed that lee seolwha isn't a super important character. she's got such interesting potential both on an immediate character level (she can be both poison and healer! you could do a ton with that) but on a more meta & relationship focused level there is SO much you can do with the fact that kim dokja views her solely as "yoo joonghyuk's lover." similarly to how yoo sangah has some stuff going on with her being typecast as a "heroine," there is a lot you can do and say with a woman who is defined by her role as a love interest to the protagonist. it's made even more juicy by the fact that she has nothing to do with yjh in this timeline!

the roles of women in fiction in general but self-insert power fantasy fiction for men in specific is just BEGGING to be focused in on here. can she have agency? what function does she play, as a pedestaled love interest? who is she outside of that? does it do her a disservice to only reduce her to her function as a healer? (yes.) all interesting questions. i wish the story would ask them
