Damn that's rough. Aleph is the only thing that can keep lumi safe at this point from the other plantus. It's also clear that aleph means well but doesn't know any better. For a being with such awesome (the way the bible uses awesome) power she doesn't know social conventions and rules. You don't touch someone without consent. Large things that are otherworldly staring at you is scary. She doesn't know this. The mc has to explain all of this stuff like aleph is a child.
This series has an interesting concept but this writing is complete ass on every level. Constant navel gazing and exposition dumps that fail to get at anything important. A main character with barely a hint of a personality. And a plot that's just a bunch of shit happening for no discernible reason.
sometimes I think Lumi might be overreacting a little, after all she's been dealing w alep for a bit now, but also trying to comprehend an incomprehensible being will fck your mind no matter how much u want to rationalize it.
