what characters do you feel like are as well written as mercymore? It's so hard finding female characters who are assertive, confident, bitchy and morally dubious - let alone ones as well written as Mercymore (and Ianthe for that matter) is.
Deeply enjoying this Freudian slip of wanting Mercymore.
Off the top of my head, you may enjoy:
Books: We Have Always Lived in the Castle, The Prime of Miss Jean Brodie, and okay, honestly, kind of left field and it's been a decade or so since I've read it & it's certainly of its era but maybe The Joy Luck Club, lol.
Plays: Mother Courage and her Children, A Streetcar Named Desire, The Lion in Winter.
TV: Channel 4's Utopia (not the Amazon remake!! a Show of All Time and me flexing a deep cut), AMC's Interview with a Vampire (many a beloved bitchy man, but Claudia, beloved; I think she and Mercy would vibe tbqh), HBO's Succession (Shiv Roy and Gerri Kellman, you will always be famous, etc). Idk, Fleabag? (Look, take it as you will, but I actually really enjoy reading the Fleabag scripts.)
Video Games: I think some of the games Tamsyn has either cited as inspiration, eg. Umineko When They Cry, or confirmed to play, eg. Disco Elysium (like Mercymorn, the female characters are secondary ones, but everyone's very voicey and fun) are probably vibe.
Comics: Queer terrors abound in What Happens Next (webcomic), idk anything Emily Carroll is probably a vibe, although certainly more condensed.

How do you think Junko manipulated the other sdr2 survivors besides Hiko? Kazu, Sonia and Akane?
Kazuichi: lots of praise and conditional affection (now that you're addicted to being my favourite little puppy, sure would be sad if you did something to make me and my friends mad and not like you anymore. Because I could make sure no one ever wants to be around you again :( build me a death machine pretty please?)
Sonia: aren't you tired of being nice? Dont you want to go apeshit? (aren't you tired of doing only what other people expect of you? You're barely your own person. Go on, try being a little bad for once! A little bad escalates into being immensely selfish, and eventually it's too late to go back)
Akane: a little harder, but she's very gullible and easy to trick into doing things, and has a LOT of trauma to tap into (maybe something along the lines of, "the world is a shitty place and no one ever helped you when you needed it, right? Only way to be safe from that is to be not only strong, but scary. Show them they can't mess with you! KILL")

you know, it doesn't help the fact that in the final op they show baby eren reaching to his father then to ymir or the fact that deep inside the attack titan there was ymir who always sought freedom signifying that eren was always meant to be the one who would free ymir ultimately, that eren was that somebody that ymir was waiting for only to then subvert it then make mikasa as the one who freed ymir like...
i don't think that to be the chosen one, you have to exactly parallel and ymir and eren do parallel in a way in which they were controlled and only used to do this and that, most of the time being disregarded for who they truly are, a human and most of the time being put in a pedestal, a god and humanity's hope. Eren is the total opposite of Ymir while she is passive and submissive, Eren is not, he's full of rage and hate and he does not back down without a fight regardless if the fight would come out fruitless, only the fact that he got to fight.
And in Ymir's belief, which I think is one of her main drives in serving Fritz is that she needs to EARN her freedom whereas Eren believes freedom is a RIGHT, it is something that is already granted to you the moment you were born to this world.
Eren is exactly what Ymir needed in that moment. I believe Ymir did wanted to rage at the world for everything.
Like, the rumbling isn't just an alternative for Paradis to be liberated and be safe, it is a personification of rage, human rage, it is misdirected, yes, there is no arguing that but it is rage.
And most would argue, it would deconstruct eren being not special and how that's okay that he isn't well, important and all that but it really isn't because this isn't a jon snow story book wise, in which it would be okay that jon isn't azor ahai nor is he the prince that was promised nor that he had targ blood in him because everything he got was done straight from the ground, no shortcuts.
but the thing is there was plenty of buildup for Eren and the way the narrative always veered away from him, always showed him losing in some way and how him being the ONE, how the final arc was now focused on eren and eren alone. It reminds people who is the main protagonist, reminds people why Attack On Titan is named from his titan.
And there was a price to pay indeed if he ever was the one, what bastard, what non special people, what second choice in aot ever won without paying a price? He killed thousands of innocent people and is deemed a monster, he would not attain his freedom in the end because if Ymir was freed, the power of the titans would cease to exist and the founding titan is what kept Eren alive the whole time.

If you were here in the beginning then why haven’t you said anything before?
I've been helping behind the scenes with advice and gathering the needed information. Because I was not a mod for the blog, and I prefer to hide my main as much as possible (due to privacy reasons) you wouldn't have seen stand-alone statements from me.
Additionally, it's not like I haven't been name dropped several times here even in the earlier non drama related posts, so you have the proof of my involvement already.
