I see there's posts floating around directly and blatantly arguing against mine (same wording) by completely misunderstanding what I said. I'm fucking BACK, babey. Should've bought some hay-scented fragrance while I was at Sephora today, because I am once again your strawman!

#yes Lucanis has been told what he's going to do with his life for his entire life and has not been able to make a lot of choices for himself #this has no bearing on how he has no moral issue with killing people for money #which is what I was saying: he has no moral issue with killing people for money and some of you are clearly uncomfortable with that #because you're bending over backward to insist that he does actually deep inside have an issue with being a contract killer #when it is INCREDIBLY clear and he discusses this multiple times that he does not have any issue with being paid to stab people to death #I can't even discuss other aspects of Lucanis because you're all so unwilling to accept the specific point I'm making #which is that the text makes it incredibly clear that Lucanis does not have any issue with being killer for hire #he has no issue with the “killing people as a profession that he engages in”#he flat out dismisses the idea that there is any moral issue to be had when Emmrich and Davrin ask him about it #you all want him to have a moral issue with the core premise of “killing people” because you struggle with the idea he does not have one #because you're all very convinced that if he chose for himself that he would choose to have an issue with murder #but he doesn't #when he engages in what you consider “making it more palpable” to him it is actually not related to the murder at all #in fact the things he does extra isn't even un-Crow-like necessarily—it's just making things more complicated and less efficient #by avoiding doing things that are not part of the contract and thus aren't necessary to do even if it would make it easier #it is still not an issue with performing murders for money!#I know I'm repeating myself a lot here but people really are doing Olympic floor gymnastics routines to avoid what I'm trying to say #which is that the text is very clear Lucanis does not have a moral issue with the part of his job where he is hired to kill people #(also to that refutation asserting that Lucanis's “enjoyment” is derived from going after objectively bad people #how did you miss the part where Lucanis HATES it when people say that when THEY kill it's Noble And Good only)#(Also his contracts are not strictly Venatori. He has a specialty but he very much states he has non-Venatori and non-mage contracts)#DATV things #anyway I should write a follow-up post
