It was becoming apparent there was more to Ynas than Samies and routines. On the outside, Aera marched along to the commune’s rhythm, but on the inside, she was out of sync… and she knew she was not alone.

thinking about officer luce tbh... aera thought he insisted on taking her off of padd to boost his own status but it seems like he really wanted to advocate for her. i wonder why he thought onus might be more reasonable? also just curious about luce in general tbh. he seems like he really believes in the commune's values ("but i learned my lesson," telling her nurin only "seems" intimidating) but he's also clearly sympathetic toward aera and doesn't want her to go through what he went through. he tells onus that aera playing piano alone is "trivial" and not worthy of bothering nurin with, which makes me think he does think nurin does and cares about important things, but it sounds like he's trying to convince himself as much as he means to convince her that nurin won't be overly harsh about aeras "small" crime. maybe luce was also picked on for being weird as a kid. anyway im going to pay more attention to him on this reread.

I still think one of the funniest experiences of my life was watching American Psycho with my sister and afterwards we both went "okay. Lets do something more lighthearted now" and put on the dubbed version of Howl's Moving Castle and we both lost our minds when we heard Howl start talking

With the way Puss In Boots seems to have been trending for days, it is making me want to potentially watch the new movie.

The way you guys are talking about it and honestly the awesome art that has been coming up on my for you thing, it is seriously making me want to watch.

Is it good? Or is it being over hyped? Did the animators/writers/cast put their love into it?

It's a genuinely great movie! I went in with zero expectations and was surprised to find a deep meditation on the fear of death. I think the movie really translates that universal concept into a format kids will understand quite well. It does have a "journey" plot (i.e. the movie is about characters who are going somewhere to find something) but because it's more character-focused and there isn't so much emphasis placed on completing tasks, that plot structure didn't feel as overdone to me as it usually does in animated films. I'd give it a 7.5 out of 10, would recommend!
