#i dont want aqours to end

[taavisplushies]

Crying so hard over this

I can't even bring myself to watch the video

[quettasecond]

who is your current favorite love life idol and why? were they your first favorite idol or did you discover them after playing the game more? did you dislike them or not care about them then they grew on you?

im very interested since i feel like youve mentioned it but never really went into depth about said topic.. love you corpsette btw

my first favorite was riko, i remember i got into love live in ~2016 (after sunshine season 1 but before season 2, before the first aqours duo-trio album as well) with my first actual taste of it being sif1 (rip....), i saw her at the screen to choose your starting idol(?) and i really liked her from that point. however, i think shes probably been overtaken by yohane for my favorite aqours member. recently yohane got an anime focused on her and ive been meaning to watch it but havent yet... i also need to finish sunshine season2 ive been procrasting SINCE IT CAME OUT!!! T-T

^the picture of riko (red hair) i used here was probably one of my faves as a kid i thought she looked soo pretty

also, back then i considered myself to have a fave muse member (eli) but i barely interacted with muse in any of the games and only watched like 4 eps of sip so i gave up on labelling myself as having a fave muse member since it feels a bit wrong to do so when i know so litttle even though information is easily avaliable to me yk, however towards the end of me labelling myself as having a fave muse member it started to shift to kotori

when nijigaku (at the time pdp) was revealed i clung to kanata, however my fave nijigaku member is now probably lanzhu (she might be one you remember me talking about? possibly yohane as well), the only sifas season i fully(?) read was season 2 bc of her, thats the season she was introduced/an antagonist in, i want to watch the nijigaku anime to see her but i heard they changed her personality a bit so im a bit anxious. everyone hated lanzhu when she was first revealed it seems except me. also shes the only member i actually tried to read all of the bond stories of in sifas (rip........)

for liella, i forget who i liked when they were first revealed pre-anime, but i do like keke. i also think margarete will become a fave as well when she joins liella in the upcoming third season i already like her a little :3

i havent engaged with much hasunosora but i think if i do ill like tsuzuri

i dont think ill be able to pin the exact reason why i like everyone - i just attach to a character and accept it i guess, but i can give a reason i like keke and why i think ill like tsuzuri!

keke - how much she wants to be an idol... even as a kid i wanted to make music in a way, and when i first watched aqours i guess the urge grew stronger, so its like im watching someone who has the same wish as me actually succeed in doing so...

tsuzuri - when her introduction video was released my first thought was "wow, i think people might describe her in ways i was described" (specifically, how i was once described as always seeming like im in another world or somewhere else mentally) so ive been predicting me liking her ever since. but i havent read too much about her yet so

so instead of sleeping or doing my school work like a functional human being i decided to make completely unoriginal librarian memes.

[bmpmp3]

found out Lanzhu and Mia’s attributes are cool and pure respectively so I was about to make a long, incomprehensible post about my oddly strong opinions about Love Live’s voice attribute system but then i realized id be doing this again

[reikarris]

I dont want it to end yet….. I really, really love aqours with all of my heart…I dont want it to end yet….. EDIT : HAHA LLSS GETS A MOVIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[runkakerurun]

YOU please... and/or Ruby I want to know more about them

i did both cuz theyre both deeply important blorbos to me …….

you watanabe is my silly rabbit whos surprised. uhm but also more on that “everyone but me is wrong about them” i just think that nobody understands her mindset and relationship to chika and by extension riko the way i do. sunshine’s writing is NOT the cleanest with a lot of the arcs it attempts to pull off but i dont think its fair to say that you is written poorly because theres a LOT there that i think nobody really thinks about ….. yous extremely popular and shes part of a whole other club and she just kind of restricts herself to chika for the longest time ……. she hurts herself so much when it comes to her love for chika because she’ll do Anything to be close by chikas side except just say that she wants to be her most important person and chika struggles to pick up on any signals she may give out ……. she almost resents riko for being so instantly compatible with her best friend and yet realizes in the end that shes liked her all along …… idk i think theres a lot there that no-one gets the way i do

as for ruby theres not as much to say about her, she got two arcs and some really good writing especially in her second arc. but ohhhh i care about her so deeply. its really clear how she matures over each entry in the series and even in the games where a lot of the arcs kind of get backtracked on for the sake of keeping them young… i am FIRM in the belief that she will take chikas place as the leader of aqours when the second years graduate. i probably couldve also filled in “nobody but me is right about them” for her since i feel like fanon OVER-infantilizes her and completely ignores the writing that makes her so good. but whatever

[nyanbinary-creature]

the problem with Liella is a lot of little things added up and one big thing that I don’t see a lot of people acknowledge and together this made me extremely disinterested in the whole project.

Like, the choice to add new members twice was bad, but not franchise-killing. It makes it harder to get to know the group as a whole, and their iconic songs from season 1 dont feel as meaningful, but okay, I can get to know six new girls.

The whole thing with the subunits was really bad, too. I hate how they didn’t let fans choose, and that they have a five member group ( too many girls to really develop a distinct social and musical personality). The subunit names are bad, too. I’m not going to dissect them right now, and a lot of that is just people voting for stuff I disagree with, but the list we were given to choose from was never particularly good either.

But the biggest problem, for me, is how divorced Superstar is from SIP and Sunshine. u’s was the blueprint - the shining miracle where nine ordinary girls become a single light and then went their separate ways, leaving nothing behind. Aqours were trying to replicate u’s success, but they realized that lightning wouldn’t strike twice and forged something new. They couldn’t save their school but they never formally disbanded either - they kept going despite the hardship and found their own path. There will never be another u’s, but there will always be Aqours, even after their members have gone. If u’s are the gods up on high, Aqours are the heros of myth. But who are Liella? How do they change the trajectory of the Love Live competition? How do they redefine what it means to be a school idol?

The thing that sets Love Live apart from other idol anime, that makes me cry when I watched the end of SIP, that keeps me listening to Mijuku Dreamer on repeat is that mythology - the idea that something so transient as one year of high school and newly forged friendships can lead to lasting change that is felt long after you’re gone. There’s a reason I associate Bokutachi wa Hitotsu no Hikari with death and loss more than any other song I’ve ever heard. I’ve consumed a lot of media about idols, but Love Live is the only one I’ve encountered that uses symbolism and metatext to touch on themes of deification, mortality, and rebirth while still being a happy shiny idol show on the surface.

Without that continuity, that acknowledgment of what came before and what will come after, Superstar doesn’t connect to the previous iterations of LoveLive: it doesn’t feel like the third mainline successor in the series after Aqours and u’s. And I think that’s really a shame. I could deal with all sorts of weird last minute additions and shitty subunit choices if Liella felt like they really occupied a meaningful space in the overall narrative of LoveLive and school idols in general. But they don’t. And I really, really wish they did.

Oh, and if anyone feels like saying “you just don’t like it cuz it’s new 😡” shut up shut up shut up I wanted to like Liella so bad. I cried when Keke and Kanon sang Tiny Stars. I love Shiki to death (mostly because the love live staff accidentally created a character tailor made for me to relate to, but still). I listen to a lot of the music. Liella is the third mainline generation of LoveLive ffs. They should be treated like it!

honestly I’ve pretty much lost all interest in Liella at this point, but I’m carrying on hope of a silly upbeat shiki solo about physics and math that I can listen to while I do my class work.

[seasidefallenangel]

[yocchannk]

Yoharikos child? Omg! Yas pleaseee!

I mean idk if ur talking abt my YOU hane riko, but oki i havent talked about them in a while anyways! Also disclaimer: This is apart of the quote on quote, canonical events surrounding my next gen AU, so there is some(ahem, lots of) drama. (ESPECIALLY, regarding the relationships between you, yohane, and riko)

(if u dont want drama or any storyline, I suggest just scrolling to the end, where theres mostly  just fluff)

(okay enough talking but like, there are SOME nsfw things, but not like, enough where its all about it.)

-

Yohane and Riko had twins; Yuuki Kuro Tsushima and Ryo Shiro Tsushima, Yuuki’s a girl, Ryo a boy.

Yuuki has almost impossibly good memory (Remembers everything back to the womb), and so she’s encountered times where it hurt her more than it helped her. She’s quite like Yoshiko, in a sense, she’s always very secretive on what she feels, closed off from the world for years.

Riko wasn’t aware that Yuuki and Ryo were Yoshiko’s, she figured they were You’s, as they had been dating, and she’d gotten prego at their after-party of the marriage. Yohane had dealt with extreme guilt from it, and was scarred (Hugely) because of her “mistake”.

Yoshiko chose their middle names, surprisingly, Riko and You didn’t know what they were, so Yoshiko chose them. Riko and You felt like they couldn’t raise both successfully (You mains a ship, so she’s not gonna be home often/Riko is a award winning pianist, so she wouldn’t be able to find time to give them all the necessary attention they need.) So, Yuuki was entrusted to Yoshiko.

Ryo had inherited Yoshiko’s violet eyes, but You had concluded it was because her father too had violet eyes.

Yuuki, and her infinite memory, remembers every single detail about the drama, and she’s kind of mentally unstable due to the trauma, she felt like she aged way before she was even born. She’s pretty quiet, especially regarding family and such, she acts confident and mature, but really, she’s fragile, scared and yearning for her family to bind together.

Ryo, Riko, and You are all completely oblivious to everything, they have the perfect life, pretty much. Ryo isn’t even aware of his few minutes older sister.

Yoshiko had raised Yuuki mainly in New York, she was only in her early twenty’s when Yuuki was born, and she needed an escape from her other family, so she participated in a university there. In her absence, Yoshiko was constantly trying to find someone to fill the empty role that she knew Yuuki deserved, guilt ridden and stress-filled. She went through thirteen exes, half of them didn’t like Yuuki, the others couldn’t get through Yuuki to bond with. 

Riko and You, for the entire 17 years they didn’t see Yoshiko, or Yuuki, they worried. They were ready to reunite with their (or, Riko’s,) daughter, and to raise her like they should have. 

Yoshiko tries her very best, to give Yuuki a good life, that is, and always will be, her top priority. She’s built up a video game company to give Yuuki a luxurious life, and to have something to entertain her, and, as much attention she could give, there was never a day in Yuuki’s life where she was yelled at. She just wants the best for her daughter, even if she wasn’t her legal mom. Both of them are pretty closed off from the world because of their family.

When Riko heard of the news of her daughter and her daughter’s “father” returning, she was really happy. So happy, she hadn’t even realized that her giddiness wasn’t from seeing her daughter all grown up, it was from the thought of seeing Yoshiko again. She was yearning for Yoshiko, when she thought it was Yuuki.

Upon realizing this, Riko had a huge relationship crisis. She didn’t understand why the feeling of Yoshiko returning, possibly into her arms, made her so happy and heart-aching. She was confused with every feeling for Yoshiko.

You, herself, was guilty. She slept with Chika, a year after their marriage, they were all drunk, but Riko said it was okay, well, until they found out Chika was 6 months pregnant. The scars are long gone, however.

When the two bluettes finally returned home, Riko and You were both extremely confused at Yuuki’s striking resemblance to Yoshiko. They shrug it off, thinking of it as another genetic thing. They were also surprised at Yoshiko’s large growth spurt (Riko, who drank stress-coffee all the fucking time, stopped growing and is now shorter than her fellow second years.) who was, now the same height as You, who was the third tallest in Aqours.

Yuuki, for the longest time, only referred to every Aqours member (Save papako) by their last or full name. They all were weirded out at it, especially You and Riko.

Yuuki and kotoumi kid 2, Kameko, get along like NozoEli gets along. Kameko is the only one that’s not apart of the drama that is aware of the drama. She’s pretty much the only one who see’s the fragile side of Yuuki, the one who’s been bottling up her emotions for years.

The longer Riko was around with Yoshiko near, or alone with her thoughts, Riko’s mind was subconsciously dreaming of Yoshiko, her heart ached extremely for her, Riko felt her body boiling with jealousy when Yoshiko was around someone who wasn’t her, and she still didn’t know why. Said girl, unfortunately, still can’t look or think about Riko clearly. She can’t get over her guilt, and her crush. This makes a huge gap between the two parents.

Ryo was shook when Riko and You told him about Yuuki, and their siblingship. Yuuki was partially smug.

Yuuki and Riko had a somewhat strange relationship; Yuuki, with her memory, was constantly dropping hints to her true lineage for Riko, and her true love.

Riko finally realized her feelings when she saw the messages exchanged between Yoshiko and her at the time current girlfriend, she realized upon realizing how she wished that girl was her, and how she wished she was all Yoshiko looked at and felt about. She had a long night of crying to herself because of it.

The closest the two got to one another when the intimacy was high and the tension was tense, they ended up passionately kissing due to it. Yoshiko broke the tension, and romance, from fear of destroying You and Riko’s relationship, and their family. Riko had a break down after it.

The third years were the first in Aqours besides Yoshiko to realize the drama, and then it was Chika, then the first years, then finally You and Riko.

You and Riko’s relationship was in absolute jeopardy after the realization. It got worse when Riko and Yoshiko got drunk and almost fucked, again. They were in mid-make out in bed when You, now sobered up, caught them. They divorced shortly after, it was for the best.

(heres the fluff and stuff)

When Riko and Yoshiko finally got together, as should be, Yuuki, was, not exaggerating, a fucking happy ball of tears. She was suuuper happy, she cried every morning for a week. Her dream had finally come true.

Ryo was a bit shook from the change, but adjusted quickly, he found himself happier than ever, like a piece of himself was lost and found without knowing.

Yoshiko and Yuuki felt like the burden finally lifted off their shoulders, and felt far more freedom than ever. Still, they had a hard time adjusting to the new change, and the new ability to open up and vent to their family, but Riko and Ryo had their backs.

Since then, Yuuki has taken some form of a chuunibyo (Ryo too) and now Riko can’t tell if she should be regretting it or not (But secretly she’s quite fond of the resemblance.).

Ryo and Yuuki, being siblings, and twins, have some extreme competitions between one another. Whether it be who could play piano with no mistakes the fastest, or who could finish eating the fastest. Ryo is the stronger one, while Yuuki is easily the faster one.

Riko wakes them all up, first, and always, is Yoshiko, then she wakes up Yuuki (Who, like herself, is a light sleeper.) then she wakes up the hibernating bear that is Ryo. She often has to turn on all the lights, take off his blankets, and dump water on him. Every. Single. Day.

They’re good friends with the Sonoda’s (Yoshiko and Umi are like sister and older sister), so they often have dinner with them on Fridays. Yuuki is the oldest one so she takes pride in always being the one to babysit them (Even though all credit should be sent to the third oldest one, Ukio, he IS the mom of the damn pack.) 

Yoshiko is your classic overprotective dad-mom, she’s aware of the popularity her daughter gets because of her job and success, which means she gets a lot, and a lot, of love letters, mostly from gold-diggers. So yeah, when Yuuki questions why all of the letters are gone the next day, they were burnt in the 9th Circle of Hell.

Riko and Yoshiko are both undeniably, tooth rotting fluffy, romantics. They are REALLY soft, and sweet to one another. Not only, has the variety of pet names expanded, the overdose of fluff increased. In the morning, they cuddle in bed when the kids aren’t up, and before breakfast Yoshiko’s always hugging Riko from behind, her chin on her shoulder, and sometimes feed each other. They aren’t married, but they act like they’re already on their honeymoon. It was, really vomit-inducing (Says Yuuki).

The biggest fight the duo had was when Riko found out that before they got together, Yoshiko slept with several other girls in her absence. Yoshiko didn’t even know what was wrong about it, the drama was still there and they hadn’t even reunited at the time. But then again it all clicked when she realized there was a chance of STD and getting another girl pregnant during that time. THANKFULLY, their worries weren’t true. Though Riko has Yoshiko put on a condom here and there for safety (I mean how the fuck would she get Riko preggo, wheres the logic)

Yoshiko, nowadays, has more of a Dia-aura. Serious but kind and dedicated. Dia is proud, to say the least.

Yuuki and Ryo have different bedrooms, Yuuki’s is in more dark colors (She likes dark blue), while Ryo’s is more pastel. They fight over the bathroom that connects their bedrooms, though.

The two are both your reliable senpai, they inherit the smarts and maturity of Riko (When they’re in public). It hurts how Yoshiko has three people who are at a constant rate of correcting every little thing she does (Yuuki does it because she knows how annoying it is, Ryo does it just cause, and Riko because her OCD won’t allow it.).

Yuuki and Ryo worked at 7-Eleven for quite some time because Yoshiko refused to give them the latest video game that Yoshiko’s brand released for free, and both of them reaaaally wanted it, so that’s how they worked at the same 7-Eleven Riko part-timed at for a full two months.

The two once walked in on Yoshiko and Riko having some (Very) heated sex, all of them couldn’t look one another in the eyes for a while after that.

Ryo, as the council vice president, is pretty close with Ukio, who’s the council president. Yuuki jokingly said she’d start a reelection to become president and accidentally set off a real reelection for council president. She was president for a week before she returned the role to Ukio.

Yuuki is a natural at piano, but mains the violin and guitar. Ryo plays piano and the flute.

There was a time where Riko had accidentally scheduled two recitals at the same time, so Yoshiko ended up dying her hair and changing her hairstyle to look like Riko’s. The only issue was the huge height difference, and stature. Riko’s body was far more feminine while Yoshiko had that serious business person look. You and Yoshiko often worked out too (They surprisingly got along well like they used to, despite the whole ordeal.) so both of them were pretty bulky. So at the start of the recital Yuuki was a Riko-copy, then when the curtains closed swapped with Yoshiko, who actually played (Apparently Tsushima’s are natural pianists.). Yoshiko and Yuuki were teased for their red hair for a while until they finally were able to remove it.

Yuuki is a huge prankster, and no one knows it other than her family and friends. She’s the cool mature senpai, no one would believe it if she pulled that prank and dropped a water bucket onto Koizumi-sensei. Ryo berates her after.

They once went to Universal Studios in LA. Riko and Ryo relied a lot on their English-speaking-able bluettes to get around and be a translator. Yoshiko’s accent is pretty well hidden (She was in New York for a full 18 years, her English has gotten really well since then, practically can rival Mari.)

Yuuki was born on New Years, at 11:39 PM, while Ryo was a day after at 12:03 AM Jan 2nd. They, along with Dia, celebrate their birthdays till 1AM so they get Ryo’s day as well. It’s a fun time for everyone.

Actually, all of their birthdays are absolute bangers. They play all their old songs as idols, and get blackout drunk (Which is why they have the real party separate from the kids.). They think they don’t know, but Yuuki knows everything.

Aaahh but you guys, episode 5 didn’t ruin ChikaRiko!!!!! (this is kinda an extended response to the last ask).

We should allow the writers to explore Riko’s relationships with other Aqours members, and it doesn’t mean that she’s forgotten about Chika! I think the final scene is the best demonstration of this! 

In the end, Riko returns to Chika’s place to try and befriend Shiitake. She could’ve just gone straight home, but she didn’t. And I dont it’s just because she’s grown a little more comfortable with dogs that she goes to try and befriend Shiitake. Of course, if she hadn’t gotten use to dogs, she wouldn’t be able to do this at all, but just because she is a little more used to dogs now doesn’t mean she had to go out of her way to befriend Shiitake so soon afterwards. Her exposure to dogs is still very limited, and Shiitake’s a really big dog, after all! You might say she’s taking too big a step here, going from Anko to Shiitake. She didn’t have to test her newfound courage so quickly! So why does she do it? It’s because Chika has always said she wanted her to like Shiitake. She does it for Chika’s sake!! 

And I might also point out her conversation with Chika in that scene. She says she thinks there are no coincidences in the world, and that everything has a meaning to it. She says, “We encounter each other as if it’s destiny.” But what that means is she also believes that her meeting Chika wasn’t just a coincidence either, that it also had some meaning to it, that some invisible power also brought them together, that it was fate!

So in the end, Riko is still thinking of Chika! So you don’t have to worry just yet. ChikaRiko is still alive and well ^^

wtf is that line of thinking yoshiko

??????

“We’ll go get the dog back.” Excuse me what?????

isn’t that gonna be illegal

that’s like… stealing private property isn’t it

yoshiko i understand you’re still hung up over that dog but this is madness

oh she came back? and with food? how sweet

don’t be stubborn yoshiko

and she takes it :)

so riko really did want to see the dog

haha they even synchronize in eating

oh yoshiko gets serious

ah yes ive read about her penchant for attracting misfortune in SID

this is fine. she’s opening up to Riko

she’s aware fallen angels dont exist but she’s doing it as a way to make her bad luck feel less bad

and bc it’s just nice to believe in shit like invisible forces and destiny

so she believes that dog was brought to her by fate

oh the rain stopped. this is new.

“Here. Some Laelaps”?

OH IT’S BECAUSE THE DOG IS NAMED ANKO AHAHAHAHA

love that riko still protests it should be “nocturne”

oh the dog actually came out

well there’s your chance to go grab it and run :))))))))

not that i think yoshiko can actually do that

oh will it notice her

it actually worked??

oh it doesnt recognize her anymore :(((

yoshiko looks so miserable haha :(

aw riko’s cheering her up

“invisible powers” :’’’)

“I, Yohane, hereby certify you as one of my elite little demons!” OMG

[choerrycolouredfunk]

I CAN’T BELIEVE LOVE LIVE SUNSHINE IS OVER WHAT AM I GOING TO DO WITH MY LIFE NOW ;________;

such a perfect ending too ;_________; the new song is so amazing ;__________; i just want to know what happens with them next...........do they all go to the same school???? will the first and second years reform as an idol group???? are kanan and mari really getting married?????? please tell me they are doing a movie.........i dont want aqours to go noooooooooooooooo

[lovestruckbear]

Please tell us more about the Borderlands AU... !! it sounds like such a good idea

WELL

i wanna make it, like. a completely different story to the boderlands games already (maybe post-tales from the borderlands time?)

but the characters are all replaces, so like instead of roland we got umi for example. and bl2 vault hunters will be 6 of the ppl in aqours

BUT ALSO i wanna make it so, like. After jack is gone, eli replaces him ? i honestly havent done a proper plan of it. EITHER WAY she’s now head of hyperion

ive contemplated a lot on making maki a vault hunter or a medic but also. what if she was both ? or like. i guess thats part of the siren powers ?? maya’s, anyway, i think lilith’s was just turning invisible. i guess depending on the skill tree ?? i honestly dont remember rip

honestly rn its not that well planned out bc i got other things to think about. rly i just need to come up with an ending and everything else will fall into place

the screencap redraw i did WAS a scene from borderlands 2, and i wanted to draw it after i read this fic http://archiveofourown.org/works/7996402/chapters/18304078 + i honestly love the idea that yukiho is part of it, like even tho she’s not present in the fic, just that she does have this strong impact to the story already, if that makes sense ? my idea for a borderlands au came up last yr tho i think

[falcoknight]

love live? :>

THANK ZERYN someone else asked me about sif so i guess ill just talk about the anime??

How I entered/learned about the said game/show/movie/etc of that fandom

i think i saw it around on my dashboard and i wanted to play the game but i didnt want to play the game before i watched the anime bc i wanted to pick the Best Girl to start so i watched the whole anime sldkjf

Fave character

rin & nico!!! and from sunshine mari & yohane!!

Least fave character

(((((((((sldkfjslkdjf its eli and riko but i still love them so much i dont dislike them they just happen to be lowest lsdkfj)))))))))

OTP(s)

tbh in mus u could name almost any combi and id probably be like Hey Yeah Nice lmao. in aqours tbh i havent thought about it long enough to know for sure!

Pairing that everyone likes but I don’t get

uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh definitely not a pairing everyone likes but dont!ship!incest! 

Fave thing about the fandom

in general its rly nice!! one of my longest standing interests at this point and ive never really had any problems with it iirc. 

The most despised thing

i dont like when people jokingly call nico trash immm :///////// aaaagsdlfj and theres something else too but maybe ill save it for sif post? 

If there is something I would change from said game/show/movie/etc., what would it be.

the entire end of the first season omf and also i wish they had characterized honoka better especially at first? well..yea..

[xtreme-icecream]

hi i saw your lls season 2 wishlist post and i was wondering what the yoshiko/yohane attitude part meant? i'm not disagreeing, just curious, but the end of her episode made it look like she accepted yohane as long as it didnt get inappropriate right? :>

ah, yeap that’s more or less how it looks like, and depending on how much time the anime’s going to cover i’ve got a feeling that that’s gonna be the status quo for sunrise for i guess most of the rest of the run at least? since they dont need much more for her to be an operable character, if u feel. her role as the comic relief kid who yells about satan every now and then doesnt seem like something they’d change

idk when i typed up that bullet i was mostly thinking about how yoshiko doesnt actually want yohane to be something that automatic, esp now that she’s in high school and she feels she needs to leave the immature chuuni stuff behind. she likes being yohane and she appreciates aqours for being a place where she can be yohane and not get shunned for it (plus stage presence👌) but there’s evidence she still views yohane (or more specifically, how she handles her) as a problem she needs to work to manage i guess. eventually.
