"He is hungry for connection. Even if he says he's in it for himself, these two other guys are literally the only thing he has in the world." GOD IM DYING ABOUT TAAKO IM ON THE FUCKING GROUND
"I don't think Lucretia reveled in erasing people's memories. I don't think she liked lying to her friends. It was very isolating. It was the hard thing to do, but the only way she saw of protecting her friends was to do the wrong thing for the right reasons. I see her as a very tragic figure." G IDODOFSDIHF
man honestly thinking about the confirmation that Taako probably wont ever fully forgive Lucretia like... I'm disappointed bc I want Taako to be a better person, but also, man thats pretty true to his shit
like. he'll simmer down, he wont bring it up years down the line, but again it circles around to his issues with permanence and his strong, strong reluctance to that change
and someone making that decision for him in a way that lead to one of his biggest regrets... yeah, theres no way to see someone in the same light as that, especially someone whos your family
I think forgiveness is in a sense earned/has to be deserved, etc., but it is also never an obligation. You don't have to forgive someone who hurt you, no matter how much they do to atone.
And given what she took from him specifically, I... I just can't blame him. I also have a lot of issues with forgiveness when someone hurts me and nobody's wiped my memory of my twin.
Griffin trying to talk his way out of "Jeffandrew is you guys" and then finally going "Okay but everything I said just now basically makes that true" was very satisfying for me
but they were pretty clear in-canon about those... man I was hoping for more Kravitz content tho lmao I adore Arms Outstretched and wouldn't change it for anything but DAMN, MORE KRAVITZ, DAMINT
haha as much as I ADORE Lucretia I would also be Taako if I was in Taako's shoes. Like if I was any of the other characters I would probably forgive her more easily but
I guess I'm just mostly struck by, I tend to play characters that at their core are very similar to me and when I see those discrepancies it's like, oh, I didn't think about that
and I am a very forgiving person, I look for reasons to be kind, and I'm... a very Lucretia type, when it comes down to it, in the shit I'd to do protect my friends
I know on my end that it would absolutely have to be a decision I make after a lot of soul searching because man, identity shit gets me but also like, caring for someone for 100 years is hard to drop on a dime
people have thought I was targeting them in the past and like... no, no I want to make it very clear I just play some characters that have some Issues and can be nasty on them!!! I do not want to be mean to you
me: sweata
me: god i wish that were me
