#anyway i feel like wolfgrace is likely going to have more significance character wise than it will have narrative wise

[momentomori24]

Hearing people say that Wolfgrace was so forced in Chapter 1 as someone who's been shipping them since the prologue is so hilarious because like brother the crumbs were always there?? Wolfgang was obviously positioned as a pivotal character to the story since the beginning but Grace was also shown to be more significant than the others alongside him, just like Eva was with Damon. It seemed very likely (to 15 year old me at least) that Wolfgrace would be our rival duo to Evamon.

Just like Damon and Eva, Wolfgang and Grace are close to each other in the promotional material. They're together in Chapter 0 title screen. They're next to each other on the train and the first people to meet after being kidnapped (they're also the first two characters we get properly introduced to). Grace is very much plays a significant role in the trial along with Wolfgang. Hell, when Wolfgang has his speech where he ensures that none of them will succumb to the killing game to defy Tozu, Grace is the FIRST person to back him up, lending her voice to reassure the rest of the group even after being shot at moments prior (note to self but I find it cute how he was able to snap her out of her paralysis and give her strength in a moment she felt absolutely vulnerable). And that's not mentioning their multiple moments of banter and admittedly very catty back and forths: Wolfgang referring to her as "Grace" when getting frustrated with her picking on Toshiko after multiple scoldings, Grace getting annoyed with him for hitting her with the "that's personal information" in regards to when he started college, them getting too sidetracked arguing to focus on the fact that they literally got kidnapped, Grace waking up from her daze to interrupt him during the trial before completely taking over the debate and then hitting him with the "use your brain mate" even tho he made an argument that was literally agreeing with her (that still makes me giggle like girl he was taking your side why 😭 the way he folded immediately too lol). And that's just the moments in the game I can recall off the top of my head. I'm not even touching on the Wolfgrace New Year's Eve art or the official 2024 Valentine's day art where Wolfgang is shown holding a bouquet meant for Grace (evidenced by the rabbit encased in a heart).

Like, Grace and Wolfgang have ALWAYS been a thing. It was never a matter of if, but when that would be explored more clearly in game. I was pleasantly surprised that they went third base in Chapter 1, but that was only because I fucking thought Wolfgang wouldn't fucking die FIRST 💀💀 It seems like people can wrap their heads around Evamon being a thing and that it was very much natural for their characters, but somehow struggle with accepting that Wolfgrace is the same despite it being very parallel to them. I can accept not shipping or liking them, but there's a difference between something being forced and you just NOT reading the room-- guess which one is the case here.
