I feel like we as a fandom need to talk about Guinaifen and how horrific her backstory is.

A child who's loving home and father was ripped away from her, who saw her mother stay behind to fight a battle with the knowledge she'll be slaughtered senselessly like her people, who's elder siblings had to be tied up so they wouldnt die with her.

They end up in an IPC mine with conditions so horrific the elderly knight sworn to protect them refused to let them work in it and did it himself, his hands becoming deformed from the wear of it.

And then one day, that steady wall crumbled, their last support system died quietly in his sleep.

Then her brothers become pirates to support their siblings and when they were captured and turned over the Xianzhou, Guinaifen was relieved because supposedly the Xianzhou was kind.

She hoped they were kind enough to let her siblings and her die together with dignity.

The Xianzhou instead put them in respective rehabilitation programs with her elder siblings getting jobs and the younger ones getting an education.

Guinaifen isn't even her name, her real name is Guinevere. Sushang gave her the name Guinaifen. Guinaifen loves the Xianzhou becuase they saved her and she cares so much about Sushang she wanted to be her sworn sister. She's a fascinating character who's backstory emphasizes characterization of the IPC and the Xianzhou. The Xianzhou sought to rehabilitate them even when wronged by them because they were just kids in a shitty situation. The IPC exploited people and made them work in horrific conditions, not caring in the slightest about them until they started losing profit.

I love Guinaifen to bits if you can't tell by now haha.

She's also based on Arthurian folklore which is neat!

was aemond’s scene with the brothel lady strange and disgusting? yes but also I get it because just like aemond I have been searching for the comfort of my mother’s embrace for years, my memories being made up more of my wanting than actually receiving, and so its with much regret that I must compare myself to one of alicent’s kids but i guess it was also inevitable as my own mother shares even more similarities with her

it is beyond infuriating how anne rice seems to insist on marius being a positive force in anyone's life ever. like she can't fully commit to exploring the fact he groomed armand and has repeatedly taken away his consent for what marius thinks is best (take the end of TVA as an example) and just kind of flatly puts it in the narrative. there's not really much interest in how these horrific events make marius come across as the worst because EVERYONE loves him. for gods sake, lestat learns from armand exactly what marius did to him in TVL and then proceeds to go find marius and be super friendly to him in the same fucking book. even armand and pandora, two of the people who have MORE than enough right to hate him, do not. it doesnt feel like shes trying to explore the toxicity of the abusive dynamic he traps them in, it just is there. and like yeah ofc the toxic vampire romance series but i think that this should be handled with more care. and it is not ever really framed in a way that she is interested in exploring how marius should easily be one of the most horrific characters in this series because it kind of feels like sa/rape/grooming/other things of that sort are just put there to further plot and not to really get the respect that they deserve in a medium.

annette is so often overlooked because she's bubbly. she's energetic and happy and whimsical in a way the others aren't, and so her pain is overlooked.

but look at how distraught she gets whenever she does something wrong, or she forgets something. in her supports with byleth, she's so disappointed in herself for missing training. in her supports with dedue, she's distressed when dedue has to help her clean up and make dinner. she hates letting people down, she hates failing, she always strives to be better, and that is how her trauma manifests.

her father left her, and so she assumed it was because she wasn't good enough. so she worked, and worked, and worked, and he still didn't want anything to do with her - and she twisted it to think that it was because she didn't work hard enough. so she continues to throw herself into her work, throw herself into her studies, until maybe, just maybe, she'll be good enough.

but it's quiet. it doesn't manifest in hurting other people, or insulting them, or otherwise being an outward jerk. it manifests in her helping everyone wherever she can, because maybe then she'll be nice enough. it manifests in her studying late into the night, because maybe then she'll be smart enough. it manifests in her training every moment she can squeeze in, because maybe then she'll be strong enough. just look at the juxtaposition between her heroes relic and her class - she covers all bases, unique bases, pushes herself harder and stronger, because that way she doesn't have room for the thoughts, and she's growing alongside that. and maybe then, after all that is said and done, after she's mastered all the things that could possibly make someone love and appreciate her, she'll eventually be enough.

I can say with 100% confidence that, if anyone in his class or like, anyone, took a picture of him in a dumb angle or a warped top-down perspective, he'd fucking HATE it! Like, a fish-eye lens! Byakuya's all about looking elegant, powerful, and presentable. So, looking anything NOT like that is the worst for him. Not to mention, he doesn't get why anyone would wish to have or take pictures of themselves in weird states like this. Byakuya also has a lot of pride in his appearance, so, even if he didn't hate it out of the principle, he'd also just be like uncomfortable about it too. Another one of those "Byakuya being out of his element and being pissed about it" moments. I kinda feel ya, my buddy. At least with not be the kind to take those pics. Not a selfie person so that stuff just makes me uncomfy warping my face like that T-T The ONLY way I could see him being like, SOMEWHAT fine with a weird picture or unflattering angle of himself is if there's super strict rules or guidelines. Like, "Oh my gosh, Byakuya! Calm down" type strict. For instance, the pic would probably have to be: 1. Beyond subtle. Like, basically him blinking or mid-blinking. Something close or along those lines. 2. The person who took the picture was himself or someone he HEAVILY trusts. Even then, he'd still be salty about it. 3. The picture was immediately wiped afterwards and quickly forgotten about ever existing to begin with. Yeah. Byakuya is DEF not overdramatic about this stuff. Though, at least one can understand him on this end. He's got a title to uphold and takes it very seriously. It's very apparent with how much he mentions his name and his title as both The Ultimate Affluent Progeny and the heir to the Togami Conglomerate. Guy is NOT messing around with that info! Another thing to note is that Byakuya's also not a "go with the flow" kinda guy. So, being casual about pictures is both not his style but also something he's not used too. Specifically the playful kind of pictures with friends. Cus well, yeah. Bastard's never had friends like that of any kind and you cannot convince me that he did! Took the guy forever to gain empathy in the main canon of Danganronpa! Also, since I mentioned it. AMEM!

He forehead so beeg. I just felt compelled to do this to him cus why not. I will exaggerate it more one day. For now though, here he is!

I am eternally amused by Mrs Gardiner pausing her effusions to dissect Wickham's vs Darcy's attractiveness—Wickham's kind of prettiness just gives him this look of goodness, you feel like he's got to be a great person, while Darcy's kind of prettiness is like, perfect features, which is nice and all, but not the same ... though there's something about him as well that makes it hard to believe he's actually bad, even though he's got to be a bad person because Our Pal Wickham would never lie, but Darcy does have such a nice mouth, you notice it when he talks—

Everytime I face a new character limit on a website that didn't have them before/used to have really long ones... AUGHHhhh the modern social media world was not made for people like me (lovers of details, rambling, elaboration, thorough explanation, and nuance)

One third of my newer layer of understanding of Jerott Blyth (and especially his relationship with Lymond) is from other readers’ thoughts here and elsewhere, one third is from rereading Pawn in Frankincense after getting my major dislike of him out of my system (and with the continuing benefit of people with whom to roast him), and the last third is from Francis’s reassurance to Khaireddin that “men quarrel and are friends.” Men quarrel and are friends! They do, and they are. It’s a complicated mess, but it’s also that simple.
