TRUMP & LILIUM stageplay + manga spoilers !

hot take!! someone on twt asked me my thoughts on Klauss’s state at the end of the play/manga but I HATE splitting stuff I have to say into different replies like twt or tiktok and this is kinda long SO here we go

Why I think it would be better if Klauss were dead:

To preface, I want to say that this opinion is partly formed because I had SEVERAL misconceptions about the events of the manga for a WHILE.

The manga wasn’t fully translated on the manga websites when I was reading it so I had to read the last 8ish chapters on tiktok. And sometime during constantly switching between the manga panel slides and the translation slides (no shade to the translator who is infact carrying the fandom), I missed some points and misunderstood some others.

One such point is: in the manga, as opposed to the play (which I watched much later), it was not as clear to me that Klauss is supposedly still alive.

When I watched the play I was so surprised by Klauss’s remaining alive, I thought the manga had not stayed faithful to the play.

So what I thought happened here at first was something like, only one immortal HAS to be around at any given time, so Klauss was able to die because Sophie was now immortal, or Sophie is TRUMP now. And given the way that Klauss said, “I finally reached the stars with my own hands,” I also thought that he meant he could finally die.

I felt that the intent behind this statement being, ‘I can finally die,’ gave the ‘I finally reached the stars’ moment a better meaning than the ‘I found a remnant of you and made it immortal’ part.

This is especially because part of the reason Allen affected Klauss so much was because Allen was aware of how awful immortality can be. I thought Klauss said he was able to reach the stars (like Allen wanted to) because now he was able to die.

When Allen always talked about having the stars, and in contrast when Klauss said in the forest that he doesn’t think his hands can ever reach them, it came off to me as a sort of ‘Allen is able to think like this and be so hopeful and whimsical because he has not been around for as long as Klauss has, and he has this security in knowing that he will not be stuck here forever.’

So kind of, reaching the stars = having the freedom to die. AND klauss can’t reach the stars = klauss can’t die.

This is why I thought, when Klauss said at the end, “I finally reached the stars with my own hands,” that he was able to die, and I thought that this gives that whole thing a better meaning, rather than just attempting to end his Allen-centric loneliness by immortalizing Sophie.

Okay now this one is not as strong of a point but going off how it’s ‘I can finally die,’ VS ‘I found a remnant of you and made it immortal’, it also just doesn’t seem as in line with what Allen would have wanted.

But maybe that was the point actually… now that I’m writing this out, it is pretty good how in the end, in the name of Allen, Klauss ended up doing to Sophie what Allen would never have wanted for himself, as if this was his opportunity to fix what he wasn’t able to do before. It makes it a lot sadder this way. I shouldn’t have doubted u suemitsu oopsies

My other reason for preferring Klauss died would be because it makes Sophie’s character more tragic. He’s spending 3000+ years looking for this guy thinking he has some kind of hope to end being alive for so long, but imagine this guy is not around anymore? then he’s just spent several millennia on a wild goose chase for hope.

And the OTHER other reason is just Sophie is my favorite because of his insane aura and he’d have MUCH more aura if he really was TRUMP. Just reread the last couple of scenes in the manga while imagining he’s TRUMP the aura go crazy..

But yeah!! I think that it just made a little more sense if Klauss had died at the end, because of how they set up that line + the contrasts between him and Allen to come off, and also just the whole point of him saying he reached the stars at all. and also sophie 🐐🙏

I did not mean for this to get this long tbh but yesterday I wrote a little essay for my creative writing class on Ul and tried to keep it short and it was still a page longer than allowed. so uh. we r not republicans but we stay yapping about TRUMP yippee?

and maybe i’m wrong about all this idk maybe it didn’t make sense or I missed something ELSE that was crucial to my understanding of this. if anyone has any thoughts on this or disagrees for whichever reason, please share!! I would love to hear

A duel with an end

Summary: Pietro loves, and Allen will never understand.

Pairing: Unrequited Pietro Rondo x Allen Strauff

Warnings: Angst.

Words: 300

Prompt: June 20th - All Shook Up - Elvis Presley / “My tongue gets tied when I try to speak - My insides shake like a leaf on a tree”

“Have you ever been in love, Pietro?”

“Whaaat?!”

Allen’s not even looking at him, gaze dreamily set on the ceiling above. “Say, how did you know?”

It’s late. Way past curfew, at any rate, the Clan completely silent. They should’ve been snoring by now – yet here Allen is, asking the most out-of-the-blue questions like usual.

“What are you saying, suddenly?” Pietro stammers, pulling the covers tighter around him. Badump, badump, his treacherous heart beats – threatening to overwhelm him. Allen, the oblivious fool, continues.

“Oh, don’t you love someone?” he asks, doe eyes now on him. Gods, is he aware how it cuts Pietro when he gazes at him this way? “I thought so.”

“What makes you think that?”

“You sometimes have that look on your face – the one Lulumina has too.”

Pietro regrets his question instantly. Regrets this talk, regrets coming to this Clan – everything that led him to this very moment. A familiar ache coils in his chest, something Pietro desperately tries to bury.

But to what use? Allen will never understand, gaze back on the ceiling like he already forgot their conversation. His indifference, as if Pietro isn’t even there anymore, works his mouth open before he can stop himself.

“My tongue gets tied when I try to speak…” he edges, soft, prompting Allen’s attention to snap back to him. “And my insides shake like a leaf on a tree every time we’re together for too long.”

Allen gasps, propping himself up on an elbow. “I knew it – so you are in love with someone!” he exclaims, making Pietro smile sadly. “Have you ever told them?”

“No.”

“Why not?”

“It wouldn’t make a difference. Even now, we talk at cross-purposes.”

Allen tilts his head, confused, and Pietro sighs, knowing he will carry this sin until the very end.
