being the bearer of the curse means that once every few months i remember eito aotsuki and i go and i see people say "eito would be fun as a woman" and never commit. Fortunately for everyone who talks to me on discord i've fully invested into eito being a trans woman
does anyone else think about the fact how talulah went from the jaws of one black snake to another or is it just me and this black mold
it's not unintentional. arknights doesn't do things like that unintentionally - that, or else i'm on a crazy level of copium (entirely possible.) still, i think there's merit to comparing the way kashchey and nine handle talulah.
note: this isn't anti-nine in any capacity she's one of my favorite characters
obviously putting cuffs on someone when taking them into custody is standard, but like.... these are both foundational moments of talulah being kidnapped.
their intentions with these statements are not equivalent, but i enjoy that both kashchey and nine constantly question the strength of talulah's ideals and if she's still the person she was / if she can commit to her path.
there's nothing i can screenshot for this, but kashchey and nine both use talulah as a figurehead and a pawn. for kashchey, it's making an heir, and (gestures to everything), and for nine, it's having the power of reunion's leader - reunion's draco leader - at her back. talulah being a draco also matters wrt both kashchey and nine's usage of her.
