Never going to find the original tweet this is from but this is the best fsn post
I’m not tough enough to avert my gaze and ignore them. Then again, neither am I so cocky as to set my sights on becoming their competition. Maybe I just never know when to give up, or maybe this is me refusing to discover the limits of my own abilities. I’m stuck between my inability to run away or to square off—something I find utterly pathetic about myself. “What? Don’t let it knock the stuffing out of you, Kadoc. Feeling inferior to geniuses count as some talent in itself. To actually keep yourself motivated in the face of cruel reality is what I consider the talent of the ordinary. Pathetic? Hardly. Unrelenting is the word you’re looking for. I’m speaking from experience when I say you folks do a better job at surviving than geniuses. I know all too well because of my line of work!" Only on that day did the cheery chatter of my big brother figure, as he likes to call himself, strike a chord with me. He’s right. I don’t have any talents or titles or achievements of great renown. But even if I have nothing to be proud of, that doesn’t mean I should let myself lose heart. I am my own person. I can never be someone else. So no matter how out of place I may feel, I’ll put up a fight until my final breath.
the first thing you'll realise about Fate/stay night is that it's kind of stupid. you realise this when someone recommends it to you and explains the premise
what makes this realisation funny is that, after you've read it, you will forget this realisation entirely. you will begin to recommend it to a friend with all the sincerity someone deeply emotionally touched by a work can muster, at which point you'll realise how you sound
because at its core, Fate/stay night is one of the most sickeningly sincere manifestos about love and idealism ever written, but it's also a story about going on dates with genderbent king arthur and being the bone of your sword. you can't have one without the other
more marxist michael
100% agreed tbh
I think the realest outcome would be if the Knights Moralis *refuse* to help Coustas or even try to mercy kill him, but Tartah sees this and finally defects to the Brimhats to save Coustas or to at least end Pointed Hat society (as he should)
While I expect to be pretty bummed out if Coustas does indeed become a Pointed Hat apprentice, I just want to say that if he somehow becomes a Knights Moralis apprentice I will kill kill murder bite kill
was kinoko nasu trying to deny the bisexuality of his characters when he gave nero and musashi multiple repeated lines where they explicitly say they are interested in both men and women
