“I thought, ‘As long as I can make them laugh, it doesn’t matter how, I’ll be alright. If I succeed in that, the human beings probably won’t mind it too much if I remain outside their lives. The one thing I must avoid is becoming offensive in their eyes: I shall be nothing, the wind, the sky.’ My activities as jester, a role born of desperation, were extended even to the servants, whom I feared even more than my family because I found them incomprehensible.”

“All my life I’ve never known what scorn or hate or anger or jealousy feel like. I just copy other people and make a show out of hating or despising certain things. In reality, I don’t understand any of it. I have no idea what it feels like to hate someone, to detest someone, to feel jealousy.”

kazuha’s friend was a chaotic bisexual chad who decided he wanted to die by the raiden shogun’s titty blade and I have nothing but respect for him for that
WHY IS THIS SO CUTE
#PEAK TELEVISION
ideas for interesting platonic dynamics:
older siblings trying to maintain a cool persona to impress younger siblings who idolize them
character avoiding their landlord cause they’re late to pay rent
neighbors who have grown weirdly accustomed to each other and don’t feel right if the other person isn’t home
following the same idea… one of them finally moves out and the other neighbor deliberately scares away potential new inhabitants cause they can’t stand the idea of anyone else living next door
alternatively, shenanigans between neighbors who cannot stand each other and are each trying very hard to get the other to move out
adult characters bonding with their friends’ children
characters who are just sick of each other for no particular reason, they’re just weirded out by how often they coincidentally end up in the same places
character stalking another character, but solely to use their extensive knowledge about them to avoid them
long-lost friends/relatives reunited after many years who now have to get to know each other all over again
doctor/therapist/other health care specialist frustrated with a chaotic patient who keeps getting themselves into awful situations
tension between characters of different religions, but not hateful!! there’s just a lot of confusion about each other’s beliefs as they get to know each other
parents trying very hard not to play favorites with their children
children trying very hard not to play favorites with their parents
teachers trying very hard not to play favorites with their students
business partners become business rivals
business rivals become business partners
friend groups where pets are also considered part of the group (thinking of scooby doo)
bitter enemies teaming up against a bigger enemy
mentor/apprentice, but the mentor doesn’t know what they’re doing at all, they’re just winging it
mentor/apprentice where it turns out that the apprentice is actually more skilled/knowledgable than the mentor
ex-villains slowly learning to trust their old enemies
ex-villains trying so very hard to persuade their old enemies that they are not villainous anymore
friends who’ve grown unhealthily attached to each other keep putting off an inevitable goodbye
overachieving classmates who barely know each other and have no intention of furthering their relationship, but they enjoy working together because they make a great team
adoration between villains and their henchpeople
feel free to add on as many as you please
