I constantly make these posts early in the morning when Im sleep deprived and struggle even more than usual to put my thoughts into words but god Desire's existence is just so fucking tragic to me

Ren and Aoba as Restraint and Reason could exist as themselves and live their lives as their own people dog for Ren most of the time, but he still becomes his own entity but Desire could never hope to thrive in the same environment. Aoba and Ren can exist passively, grow and evolve and become more than a manifestation of their namesakes. But Desire's very nature is all-consuming and destructive. He's a bottomless pit of want want want take take take regardless of what it costs or how it may hurt him and if left to his own devices he would slowly chip away at himself until there's nothing left (Shiroba prime example)

Desire can't live in harmony alongside Aoba and Ren (as they do with each other) because their very natures contradict his own. Restraint and Reason exist to limit his influence because the relentless pursuit of unfiltered desire is inherently dangerous. He may be pure instinct but survival is on the back burner and if we take him at his word in Mink's bad end he doesn't care about living as much as Aoba does

Desire's only options are either the living hell that is being trapped within his own mind or losing himself to his own drive until he gets him and Aoba both killed. There is no world where he can both live and be happy. The closest he gets is the True End when Aoba finally accepts him as a part of himself, which in and of itself is a form of death (the loss of his individuality) side note; incredibly fitting with the overarching motif of Aoba and death

I think that's part of why Desire wants Aoba to accept him so badly. Life itself is a burden he simply wasn't made for. Desire's birth was like granting life to a campfire, he either burns and burns and burns until there's nothing left to burn, or you douse the flame before it fizzles out.

They both reach the same conclusion but the death of acceptance is much more kind than the death of rejection. Acceptance grants mercy. To be accepted is to be loved

Imagine if they had an episode where Ferb did all the talking and phineas was quiet through the end

bro this is all i want. i think thats it would objectively be a very interesting episode. like i can only imagine phineas trying to communicate through grandeur actions (i say this because if he and ferb were to switch roles it would be an external doof factor for sure) and then ferb wouldnt want to talk per say but its almost like he has no choice yknow. and then the rest of the gang are like wtf is happening here and could try to "fix" them like in pnf interrupted BUT that then raises the issue of redundancy so maybe itd go another way

but yeah thank you for coming to my ted talk

I honestly hate talking about my thoughts on dmmd because I have such a difficult time putting them into words (and they change like the phases of the moon lmao), but I really like the game's take on personal responsiblitiy when it comes to Koujaku

it's an aspect I feel like gets swept under the rug and overlooked in favor of attributing all his actions to his trauma, and wanting to excuse his behavior (which fair enough, I can see why). Personally I don't think deciding whether any of it was right or wrong or justified works within the context of his story at all. Trying to define his actions defeats the point

Regardless of his motivation or if he was even in control of his own mind are irrelevant because the pain caused is still very real. People were still hurt and the mark it leaves on both Koujaku's and others lives remain the same regardless. Imo, the focus is more on the resulting fallout, not the actions themselves.

I think "Koujaku is responsible for his actions" is a completely neutral statement

im drunk playing dmmd again and making myself giggle bc I've had the footsteps for Koujaku walking up the stairs playing in the background and now it just sounds like he's been walking up a long ass staircase or got lost in the house
