as funny as lyla trying to kill miguel w hammers was and i appreciate that plot point as an introduction to xina, i kind of wish she'd been able to retain her implied self actualisation and it wasn't just relegated to discord's influence. lyla connecting herself into the wider web and being subsumed by the sheer amount of suffering being reported on the news, snagging on a common english pangram again and again, before she's utterly overwhelmed and cries out for miguel as she shuts down? its such an interesting little character moment in conjuction with the fact that the first thought she ever conjures for herself is just...that she loves miguel, she loves perhaps the closest thing they both have to a friend.
