Theresa. Caring and Brave

[nerdemic]

I can't tell if it's just because I'm late to the party or because everyone is fawning over HenryxHans but NOT ENOUGH PEOPLE ARE GUSHING ABOUT HOW GREAT HENRYxTHERESA IS.

How is Theresa not top of the charts for RPG Love Interests?? we have such hits as:

Playful childhood friends? ✅

Came to the rescue despite having no way to help? ✅

Nursed back to health after near death? ✅

Bonded through shared trauma? ✅

The past pining? ✅

Being slow to open up completely because "I've lost everything - what happens if I lose you too?" ✅✅✅✅✅

A+, Top Tier, 10/10 - love my "all mouth and green eyes" girl.

telling theresa the truth

[saintdollyparton]

I've been playing Kingdom Come Deliverance for the first time because I wanna play the second one. I just finished the Theresa DLC (though far from being done with the game) and I'm officially mad that they didn't bring her back for game two.

I think they just wanted to give you the option to sleep around/romance people and they obviously figured a steady love interest isn't conducive to that. She or Hans are the only two that make sense for Henry.

I didn't expect KCD to help me process current events but it is. Theirs was the world we inherited in a way and while my brain feels like it's being stripped by anxiety when I think of global politics right now, I can deal with a 600yo political landscape fine.

It helps that KCD is not truly a power fantasy. It feels good to build Henry into a powerhouse, but the world is against him, the social structures are against him, his religion is against him, and you can't easily buy into any of it to smooth his way because odds are if you try he'll be smacked back down and reminded of his place. It would've been easy to make Hans the primary protagonist, a Lord fighting for King and Country, fighting for his place within the divinely ordained order, but it's instead Henry fighting for the common good.

Even Henry's relationships are a struggle. He's expected to eventually find a pretty girl and settle down but it's hard to form lasting connections with women when every interaction is coloured through the lens of expectation. You can hear it in Henry's voice if you don't romance Theresa. She's one of his closest friends and when you bring her up it's to constant insinuation. Henry is frustrated by it but he knows he's the outlier, and he's confused by his own frustration. Of course he should marry Theresa, shouldn't he? You see it in his relationship with Hans. They're best friends and they love each other but they can only be best friends when alone. Otherwise their connection is filtered through the expectations of their social caste. Hans would likely perish of grief if Henry were to die but they aren't allowed to freely be what they want to be with each other and so they pay lip service to their expected roles because they don't understand their own connection or how to be anything else but what is expected.

And still, with all this repression and oppression, the fact that ultimately they will lose, they continue to fight, to be, to desire more for each other and for themselves, to love in ways not penned in by social, political, and religious expectations. You can strip humanity of everything, of all freedoms and tools to empower themselves, but they'll still fight, they'll still be. They can try to drag us back to 15th Century Europe, but we will still fight, still be.
