#dungeon meshi says love is something that is shown in actions not in direct words and that a love that is hard to understand is STILL love

[notyourwatermelon]

one thing I really, really love about dungeon meshi is the way love is portrayed. specifically in relation to laios because guys laios has such a big heart and he loves in such a fierce and passionate way, he just shows it in a unique and sometimes kind of incomprehensible way (because he is autistic just like me fr) and marcille and chilchuck and even senshi sometimes dont always understand him ok, they don't always get it. but it DOESN'T MATTER because they love him too, just the same, and even when hes a little strange, even when he does something that they can't fully comprehend, they still know that he loves them, right. they still get it. he doesn't HAVE to prove his love for them, they know it already. he doesn't have to try to pretend to love in their way- when he throws himself fully into keeping his party alive, when he thinks of out-of-the-box solutions to getting his friends to safety, even when he's infodumping about his monster special interest, he is saying in every word "I love you", and his party knows this. they know it. man hold on a second mman hold on one second
