I recently caught up with the latest chapters of spy x family and woah I have a thing to say

So, we can probably all agree that Yuri noticing that Loid’s arm was twitching and checking him for an injury is the closest thing we’ve had so far to this whole spies and secrets thing coming into the open, right?

Well, I wanted to wax poetic about what this scene might represent for a moment.

Twilight, as we know in these chapters, is struggling with his own ‘weakness’ (ie his actual wants as a member of the Forger family to not break up/ hurt the family unit which includes Yuri). This weakness is personified by the wound on his arm. The injury is proof that he is human, that despite Twilight’s best intentions, he is not perfect…

But the thing is, he’s only just barely covering all of this up.

The wound on his arm is the personification of the ‘weakness’ and feelings of Loid Forger, the family man, the one who truly cares about Yor and Anya. Which means that Twilight is the disguise he uses to cover up that part of himself.

I know the expression is to ‘put on a face’ but that’s literally what he’s doing here. He’s attempting to hide his true feelings, which yeah sure is a thing he does all the time, but the thing about it this time is that this ‘weakness’, his true feelings, are still showing through. They are still noticeable.

Twilight falling to his knees in front of Yor is a perfect example of this. His true feelings (feeling safe and relaxed around his wife) leaking through.

And he doesn’t dress the wound before coming home either. Which in this metaphor would be equivalent to addressing and trying to understand his ‘weakness’, but instead he ignores it. Slaps a disguise over it and leaves it to be ignored.

The cover-up Twilight puts on his wound is the same as the lies he tells himself. They are thin, and easy to break, and have to be consciously put on by Twilight.

Because now Loid Forger is the man, Twilight is the mask.

people compare damianya and twiyor and battle out which one has more development but people need to realize that damian and anya had a long way to go to establish a proper friendship with one another while loid and yor were already married SINCE DAY 1.

chapter 96 was necessary for damian and anya's friendship because it literally shows that anya has now a better understanding of damian's point of view and is now actually SEEING HIM FOR WHO HE IS. chapter 96 may definitely be the literal foundation of their friendship (and blossoming romance perhaps). i did notice that she started understanding more about the desmond family's situation during the meeting of donovan arc and the other chapters where she comes face-to-face with his family members, but this chapter just highlights on how much she's ACTUALLY OBSERVED damian and his family and how this actually affects him. she sees his loneliness and sympathizes with that.

besides that, loid and yor had their own moment to shine throughout the arc where they "fought" over having gripes, and chapter 86 was one of the most prominent chapters to show how much they've developed in their marriage. this chapter imo was definitely a changing point in the relationship of loid and yor because without even realizing it, loid is COMFORTABLE WITH HIS FAMILY. he is comfortable WITH YOR. and as much as he tries to fight this feeling, his body reacts differently, and who can really deny how their body actually feels? surely loid can't. also, this also helps yor with actually opening up to loid about how she wants loid to rely on her more, and i think it was so comforting that yor willingly offers herself to be a supporting pillar to him because she acc observes that he works so hard for them.

i could go on for hours about chapter 86 and 96 honestly 😭

First: Being horizontal in its position, the Leviathan’s tail acts in a different manner from the tails of all other sea creatures. It never wriggles. In man or fish, wriggling is a sign of inferiority. 

I'm having a strong urge to go wriggle in the water right now, just to spite Ishmael. Am unfortunately on a train

Good day LanceMash nation (me and the 3 people on the ship). Keep in mind that this scene will get animated in Mashle season 3 🥳

At that time, they had only known each other for a few days but already promised to become exclusive rivals. Mutual possessive much?

And the fact that Lance puts Mash on par with his family—please we all know you want to make him your husband, you don't have to say it out loud (say it more)
