[incorrectff13quotes]

Serah, walking downstairs: Is something burning..? Snow, leaning seductively against the counter: Just my desire for you. Serah: Snow, the toaster is on fire.

[incorrectff13quotes]

Snow: I will now drink eight glasses of milk in three minutes. Serah: Nope! No, you won't. No, you won't because if you do that, you will die.

snow villiers (lightning returns) — “life in a love” by robert browning

“My life is a fault at last, I fear: It seems too much like a fate, indeed Though I do my best I shall scarce succeed. But what if I fail of my purpose here?”

how serah's writing in yaschas massif works against her ffxiii-2 theme

the fact that serah never gets to confront snow regarding her feelings as they relate to his abandonment and manipulation of her, as expressed in her prologue novels, despite defying him being such a pivotal moment in her asserting agency, and to see all that righteous anger and attention given instead to noel in their reunion scene was such a red flag in xiii-2’s writing.

lightning farron’s daughter, “meanie miss farron,” should have been afforded the chance to scold her own partner as she does her own schoolchildren. as canon stans, even in a story that's supposed to be all about her, the only time serah is ever afforded a voice or opinion in this relationship is when snow disappears and she resolves to save him, which she doesn’t even get to carry out. giving serah an opportunity to emulate her sister’s anger towards snow would not only have been hilarious but would’ve served to actually flesh out their relationship beyond her being his babygirl. serah should’ve come out swinging and then they could’ve kissed it better later.

i love noel handing it to snow as much as everyone else, but this was the result of the writers giving a whole plotline and world that should’ve been serah’s to noel instead as the defacto male mc, and this writing ultimately worked against snerah's favor. while noel is passionately expressing his frustration, serah is relegated to clinging to snow’s arm, dead silent. even at the world's conclusion, snow wrings his arm around noel's neck and tells him to take care of serah instead of facing his fiancé directly himself, which is completely antithetical to serah's agency in this game. her behavior throughout the yaschas massif subsection is so uncharacteristic and odd compared to what we come to know of her throughout the game, with her suddenly twiddling her thumbs saying long distance with snow is what she prefers and staying silent every time snow gaslights her into complacency.

serah's ultimate exoneration in this relationship actually comes when she defeats caius on her own, defying snow’s dream and l'cie focus of defeating caius by her side. and yes we all cheered 🎉
