I'm not crying, you are!

......

Argh! I'd totally forgotten about the wishing cup. But that ties everything together so well (modulo a few points that I think we'll see being cleared up over the next few chapters).

So Judith was reincarnated after a full life, into a normal (if somewhat dramatic) next life, and that was it - no novel, no transmigration, not even any "evil aunt" . . . She just happened to get caught up in Luca's regression, and in the process had the memories of her previous life dragged out and mixed in with the memories of her time around the loop that Luca created. Toss in her strange literary taste, and the result seems to have been that she assembled the whole conceptual framework of the novel and her transmigration as something like a way to make sense of the the situation.

But the portrait! That was so utterly heartbreaking, while at the same time so utterly beautiful . . . Judith had just lost everything, even hope, but in the end, the very last thing she had which could remind her that life didn't have to be utterly meaningless, she gave to the child she loved so that he could carry that reminder with him.

I've been impressed through the whole story how Judith could build such strong trusting relationships with people, even with people who were notionally enemy agents like Isabella. I think this is the perfect exemplar of why that's been possible - she's a smart, savvy, pragmatic and sensible woman, which definitely helps, but under all that she's just so deeply caring.

Dammit, I'm going to get sniffly every time I think about this . . .

Hmm... Wait a minutes, new theory: Since 1st timeline Judith mentioned there was no actual novel + the previous chapters from 87+ hinting the 'novel' was off.... Back to the wishing cup and 2nd timeline Judith losing her memories (of reincarnation), I'm wondering if the wishing cup converted 1st timeline Judith's memories into a 'novel' for 2nd timeline Judith. Hmm, it kinda makes sense but the why would it bother doing that is still ???

I think the "novel" comes as her own way to cope with the way she used to be, the way she used to mistreat Luca, and her own self esteem. She sees herself as a horrible person, therefore the "evil aunt" trope she herself brought up, she was so disappointment in her past actions which also brought such harsh judgment, and that's why in her "transmigration" she was finally able to say "I'd never do that"/"I'll do this instead", the same way we would react if we go back to moments that we regret with the hope of changing the outcome.
