Thinking about how in the midst of the hostility currently directed at Amethio in-universe, Friede still remains the only one so far who expressed joy at his presence..
#that's his rival!!#i wonder if amethio notices the hostility or even cares about it#i guess he doesn't because he is just focused on trying to do what he can for gibeon#still it's a bit sad :/#being considered as getting in the way or a nuisance etc.#he has subordinates but it's still more of a professional relationship#a sense of distance there...#zir and conia are always glad he is safe of course but the hierarchical nature of that dynamics still stands in the way etc#that's why it stands out to me that friede got to express open joy and excitement at a few different points#about amethio being there at all (like in ep 45)#and being the only one so far too#(liko is still wary of him for good reason)#friede was so happy he found a rival on his level :(#it's cute when he gets to show these sides of his character...#i wonder if amethio saw a bit of spinel in friede in the first chapter?#we know spinel taunts amethio when he gets an opportunity to do so#and friede had this slightly teasing side too (but no ill will)#since i got the impression that amethio was projecting a lot of things onto friede at the beginning#(which was funny)#(the way he took things in the worst possible way etc)#anyway!#i really like their rivalry tbh#it's genuinely so compelling#for what it brings them both as characters#and how it relates to wider themes etc#character notes#episode notes#hz064
