fuck me this is heartbreaking.

Evie could also reminds Elsa that despite all her power, Dorothee lost her Evie.

I get why she didn't say anything in the moment, but I do wonder if that'll come up. Since there'd be few reasons for Elsa to travel back in time like this if it weren't to prevent some terrible disaster.

And....she's Elsa. For her....losing her Evie would have been the worst disaster of all.

If a gloveless prime Mike Tyson were to punch me full force on my left testicle, it would hurt less than reading this... Achievement unlocked: First Lovers' Quarrel.

Though I can't really blame Elsa's reaction. Give her some space, Bimbo...

Predetermined Plot?

As far as i know, the plot got thrown away so long ago, they've done nothin but defy it.

Still, this is like, soul shattering


aaaaaaaa
It's one "predetermined plot" against THE Predetermined Plot, that keeps trying to reassert itself. the one where everyone they love as well as themselves die with everything they've ever done or cherished turn to ash. I get the feeling, but Elsa pulled a dumb, here.

It's all for forced tension.

Nooo.... to be fair let's recall :fml: the plot..
• first timeline the Villainess died , and to deviate from that Yvonne tried to save the Heroine.

Turns out the called "Villainess system" was made so Evie won't deviate from the plot.
We don't know if it's also the caused of the original Yvonne to die.
There's also a fate, loop of events they have to face to save themselves and everyone!.

•Dorothee is here to save our Fl to succeed and not die

So this timeline it is safe to say it revolves around Yvonne

To the point elsa completely feel disregard, used? And all her current beliefs was just a lie plotted by Evie's and Dorothee


Also her jealousy

It was not clear how many time Dorothee repeated to save Evie... but what clear was.... she used all her rings and this time was the last chances they have.


For Eve Maybe two times? Her death which she sometimes recall from her sleepless nights. And this current timeline.

out of curiosity, what would "unforced tension" look like then?
Not necessarily calling you out specifically, but I feel like so often I see this sentiment expressed whenever interpersonal conflict arises in a manga, and I have to wonder why it's so often the go-to take.

Like...is it just to try and dismiss the issues the characters are facing? If "you" (generally speaking) have an issue with the sequence of events, how should it go, given the context of what's happened?
Should Elsa just be like "oh sure you kept all of this from me all this time, but it's fine that you're leaving me in the dark under the pretext of protecting me, and don't seem to trust me enough to clue me in while you shoulder all of this on your own and potentially put us both in danger by leaving me out of the loop"? Or should the conflict just never come up at all, because "conflict is bad" or something?

Kind of at a loss at this point, I guess.

I do agree that the term is used a lot, and a lot of the time in the wrong place, quite possibly my own use here too.

The reason I said it as so is not because of anything that this chapter does, it is how we got here. Primarily, the act of withholding information to """"protect"""" someone, which is something that almost never goes the way they want. It is a trope used to death to the point that I can no longer see it as anything other than a way to make interpersonal tension, and I still don't know what this trope is based on, seeing that it doesn't translate into real life all that well either (ends the same way, i.e. with drama).

I do not mind interpersonal drama and tension, it can make some really good character arcs and conflicts, it is just that it is done like this too much and I can't buy into it, hence the reason I stated it as "forced tension." If you agree or disagree, that's up to you.

I want to focus on just the one thing that Elsa said, about giving up her body to Dorothee. While they are technically both Elsa, they are also different enough that Evie could immediately tell the difference based on mannerisms and speech alone. Dorothee is Elsa, but she is not the Elsa that Evie fell for. Conversely, our Evie is not the same Evie that Dorothee fell for. We are all a product of our experiences, so altering a person’s history means altering them as well. So while Dorothee is helping them for now, would she be satisfied with a version of Evie that is different from the girl she loves?
