Freeloader Ri-chan arc?

 

[abdullah17]

KEKWait, she's thinking of horny?!

 

[UnvalidUserName]

Don't let her give up on it!

 

[jonnywarlock]

Pay for her lessons! Then have her go busking! Lugging the piano around would be great exercise...

 

[statflow]

Crazy progress. 10/10

Freeloader Ri-chan arc?

She said she was gonna be looking for a job so I doubt she’d freeload

 

[HartSkai]

Looks like I was right, Ri-chan wants to share a bed too

---

 

[Coldlight]

They're both open to the idea of sharing a bed and sleeping beside each other.

Getting rid of the piano to get a bigger bed? That's a shortsighted move, when they can have both provided they've got enough patience to save up for the bed.

 

[Frost_Artus]

Oh shit, here we go

Is it a landmine? Better check

 

[jackjack9]

Don't get rid of the piano!

 

[BroxTheMeerkat]

Bring the piano

I know this is supposed to be a short and sweet series without too many thoughts put behind it, but honestly Riri's personal conflict hasn't got a closure yet and it's bugging me.

 

[RustyRampy]

Use the piano for your bed and make sweet music every night.

I mean, this IS the closure, no? He's handing her the piano form he picked up a bit ago.

I mean, this IS the closure, no? He's handing her the piano form he picked up a bit ago.

I don't think so, at least from how I see it. Her conflict revolves around her dad leaving, but the pianist career failure is the one that pulls the trigger into her trying to become someone she's not (hence the piercing, hair bleaching, smoking etc).
The pianist form he's handing her is one step to getting better, but it doesn't deal with the main issue at hand. She still needs to properly grief to actually fully move on.

I don't disagree. If you read Ch. 106, it addresses exactly what you are talking about. He's really asking, "Is this actually supporting her?" He comes to the conclusion that it isn't and that it's just his own selfishness asking.

My guess is the piano event is going to either dredge up the true issue or get her set on a better track.

I shouldn't have phrased it as the be-all and end-all.
