So I've been re-reading Ascendance of a Bookworm, and have recently gotten into part 5 volume 4 - this picture is of when Rozemyne gets told not to raise the duchies grades any further as the adults can't keep up. Her inner monologue describes the world turning grey around her as she thinks that if she really is always making things worse then maybe it would be better to just disappear....
#rozemyne#honzuki no gekokujou#ascendance of a bookworm#this part got me just about crying over here-#so I'm sharing the sadness around#thank goodness Charlotte steps in to save the day soon after this#since otherwise Rozemyne was heading towards the Depths of Despair with no way up#it's not often roz's pov has much gloominess in it - tbh. normally her being sad is more obvious in other ppl's povs/reactions to her#but you know it's bad when even she's describing how the colour has gone out of her vision#and the achievements she was previously so proud of are just crumbling into dust before her eyes...#yet another thing she got wrong.. despite her working so hard..#*sniffles#:'(#twas so SAD-#anyway.#I was listening to sad songs while drawing and I couldn't get this scene out of my head. so here it is.#:')
