i kinda forgot how mochizuki does expressions so well that they speak more than texts in an image

esp for someone like oz who has identity crisis going on for him that he doesn't really care who he is as a person so long as it makes others happy (the way later he could care less if people see him as jack the hero rather than just oz)

but the shock in oz's expression as though he had been read so clearly by sharon's words.

also idk it never crossed my mind while i was rereading, but i love that this is just in chapter 2 -- that things would go bad if oz should ever lose sight of himself

bc that's the gist of oz's whole character arc, inching away from just being whatever people want him to be, shying away from his emotions, and accepting himself and what it means to be himself - emotions and past - alike.

#'avil why are you reading pandora hearts again' girl's depressed. turns to comfort media.#tbh im kinda surprised though that i can still pick up new stuff with oz bc oz is my big comfort character #however i also feel like i know /enough/ that i didnt think id pick up more #the treasure lies in the little details lol #also yeah im just liveblogging/trying to infodump to cheer myself up lmao #feel free to block the liveblog tag idk how long ill be reading ph today before i switch to things i should probably be working on #anyways #the thing about oz is that hes always rejected himself #you see it in the way he talks to break about himself #or like. he hates himself so much that he rejects alice and gilbert later down the line when he finds out the truth about himself #to lose sight of himself like that means the end #i guess for me his story has always been about growth from that and it feels nice to fall back into that and watch him grow #anyways if i turn into an oz blog. you know lmao #avil reads ph #i always wanted to reread ph again but the starting chapters are kinda too slow for me alksjdfalkh #just throw me straight into the isla yura arc and beyond #you know another thing though. that rejection of oz himself. parallel that with leo's rejection of self later that he hides away and allows #oswald to take over blahblah #*i dont think this makes sense im just blabbing now*
