if dorian didn't show up, do you think louis would have shot minnie?
I do. I know some people think either he wouldn't have or he would've missed so that's why the writers had him shoot Dorian instead, but mmmmmm no, I don't personally think so. I like to think that if he had taken the shot, his shaky hands would've caused him to shoot her fatally.
Mostly because I'm already so normal about the fact that of the Ericson crew, Marlon and Louis are the only ones with a body count. Well, that we know of, but shown to us in the game, at least. Plus, we know it's Louis' first kill.
Like yeah, Clementine and AJ become part of the crew and they have bigger body counts, and if we're counting indirect kills caused by actions, then Tenn has a count... and I guess everyone has blood on their hands for blowing up the boat... but I'm talking about killed directly with a weapon like....... I lied, I'm not normal about that at all, Louis and Marlon are the ones who have killed someone in Louis' route. I'm also not normal about the fact that Louis kills Dorian and then even as he's clearly in shock, he tries to go with Clementine to get AJ, and then later on when they talk about it, he says it feels like bile but not quite and he's glad he has it in him to do it.... listen, listen, listen... I'm obsessed with that.
Anyway, so if Louis shot Minerva, I think he would've accidentally killed her and can you imagine? He's already enough of a mess after killing the woman who pinned him down and tried to cut his finger off [or succeeded] but he knew Minerva, they were friends before the twins were taken. Even Violet couldn't kill her even though that would've been the smarter thing to do, and we know thanks to meta knowledge that killing her would've saved lives, but Violet couldn't, and I don't think Louis would intentionally either.
Speaking of Violet, if Louis killed Minerva, I hate to think about what that would've done to Vi. I think she might've actually left at that point, like what was planned before it got changed to her being burned. I don't think she would've attacked Louis over it, though, like yeah she attacked Clementine in the cell but Louis? I don't know, but I don't think so just because it's Louis and he'd be a mess about it anyway.
Though if he did kill her, it would be a neat parallel to draw... y'know, because Louis forgave AJ for killing Marlon even though he was pissed and heartbroken, and Violet was annoyed with him the entire time... but could she ever forgive Louis for killing Minerva? Y'know? We already have a similar parallel with AJ shooting Tenn, but still.
If Clementine killed Minerva in that moment, though, then I could see Violet attacking her since in her eyes, Clem proved her right.
So yeah, I get why they added the Dorian kill to his route. It adds another compelling element to Louis as a character, but we also need Minerva alive for episode 4; Louis can't kill her, he can't miss, and he's not going to stay with her because we need Violet to stay on the boat and him to be on shore for all routes.

Day 10+11: Fire / Tears || Masterlist || Prompts by @fruit-of-infidelity
☯ Excerpt from Memory #10 ☯
——Too late.
It was too late.
As I stepped into the scene, I found something worse than anything I could have ever imagined.
Rhiannon-sama's room, which I had cleaned and tidied earlier today, was in flames. Smoke filled my lungs as I gasped in exhaustion after the pointless rush trying to save the unsalvageable. I was too slow.
Fire. Blood. My master's corpse. The manor I took care of for the last century and a half. My work, my task, the majority of my lifeless life...
Everything disintegrating, being consumed before my eyes. Despite the scorching heat, for a good amount of seconds, I simply froze up.
I couldn't think. Something inside me... hurt. Around my chest, around my throat. I hadn't felt pain in so long, and suddenly I felt myself burning, inside out.
Suddenly it felt familiar, like a part of me I forgot about.
Tears coming out unannounced, evaporating on the spot, were a reality check I didn't ask for, one that made me realize that I hadn't cried since... years, centuries, how long has it been?
All I was certain of was that all that time and my effort were destroyed, and the four culprits were now approaching me.
They took everything from me.
The manor, my past, my work, my master, myself..., everything was ablaze. And, for the first time in who knows how long, I felt something inside me——
——Snap.

this isn't even the ship i was complaining about
canonically this man married this woman and loved her until the very last moment he trusted her. he had a daughter with her
PLEASE ask yourself why it's only the black characters you're doing this to
Like I don't fucking care about shipping discourse but when you SEE a pattern every other post please ask yourself WHY

sometimes your favorite song is by the idol group you see every time you go to tokyo but they haven't released it to streaming and they're quite obscure (not to mention taping performances is extremely NG in jpop idol culture) so the only time you have a chance of hearing it is when you go watch them perform and it's like not even guaranteed that it'll be on the setlist every time and then you find out it's actually by a disbanded sister group of theirs and they also didn't release it to streaming but they did put it on youtube in a 20 minute long video that features their entire first mini-album except for some reason it's the absolute worst quality vocals you've ever heard on a professional recording as in not the mic quality but the actual singing quality as in it sounds like a group of friends doing karaoke not even professional singers just some friends with no retakes no autotune touchups not even re-recording the lines that are off rhythm but it still means you kinda get to hear the song in your apartment. but is it even really the same song as the one you hear when your favorite member gets the solo in the chorus and walks from the back of the stage out towards the audience between the rest of the members as if parting the sea. is it
