Just Chillin’ ~
me having a weird time: man this weird time sucks! i don't feel like myself! i wish i was having a normal time!
me having a normal time: well the weird time did have a certain je ne sais quoi...
you dont know real pain till youve shipped THESE TWO
doomed yaoi at its finest.
when the trope is childhood bestfriends from different social classes (prince x peasant) and the princes brother gets jealous that his brother has friends and burns down the peasants village, the peasant being the only one escaping and developing amnesia. years later they go to the same school and the prince recognises him, but brushes it off bc hes convinced that he died.
we usually think of mood as a scale from 1-5, but there's actually a negative scale too, where the frown turns back into a smile, but just a little insane !
this is so subaru and yui coded !!!
something I don't see people talk about with Sydney is their theme of accountability. They cannot take responsibility for their own desires.
no matter how corrupted they won't ever say they wanted this out loud, there is like 1 encounter they initiate, they need you to change their hair.
they did everything they did for the temple and for school and for their parent, nothing for themselves. then that devotion turns to you.
I think about their hair so much, they say "I keep my hair natural because Jordan likes it" they look at the magazines at the hairdresser longingly, you can't suggest anything they don't want. But they continue to say "thanks for changing my hair" I am probably not quoting it right but the wording was so delibarate, this is what YOU wanted, they are only happy they submitted to you.
the only event where they initiate the encounter, while working the sex shop together they cuff themselves in the basement and wait for you to "take advantage of them" all playful and cute (it is cute until they do it three times in a row in a day and you just want to get your +sirris love and leave)
if you uncuff them with high lust and corruption, they cuff you instead, and if you refuse here too they just, they freeze if you make noise and sirris gets you free. otherwise they just, leave, Sirris has to resque you, it's weird it's odd
I think Sydney kinda shuts off when you fully reject their advances because they are doing what YOU desire right? you made them like this, they're supposed to be an extention of you.(forever two as one? temple teachings at it again??) literally can't comprehend they had a single selfish impulse seperate from anyone else's expectations.
anyway Sydney is fucked in the head as anyone else in this town even tho they are my sweetiepie pookie bear they need mood stabilizers so so baddd
TROPES/DYNAMICS I LIKE
as a com/darkshipper !
showed up one day x doesn't know where they came from
amnesia x someone they used to hate (bonus points if they find out and are afraid of them again)
brainwashed x the person trying to save them (bonus: they still betray them in the end)
hate each other but stuck together because of traumabonding
codependent addicts
father figure x traumatized boy (could be romantic or platonic)
dying x slowly killing them
catatonic x manic
on the run together
shy priest x depraved stalker
bully x bully (bonus if they're childhood friends) (bonus bonus for internalized homophobia)
the worst x hates them but feels obligated to stay because of an "i can fix them"
friends to lovers to enemies
trying to kill each other but they end up falling in love anyway (bonus if one of them is still forced to kill the other and it absolutely breaks them)
condescending x condescending-er
childhood friends but one forgot the other
I will never comprehend how the diaboys call Yui basic or even UGLY when this is how she looks
Like just look at herrrr
She has etherial beauty and I will stand my ground on that 😤
