Ok I finally stopped being a wuss and read that last Moca banner story and fuck. Fuck.
#rat rambles#band posting#I was so scared to read it since I was so scared abt the direction theyd take it in#but it was so fucking good holy shit#moca was written very well I love how it both stays true to its base character while also showcasing how its changed overtime#and Im so glad that moca is standing up to ran abt this in an actually meaningful way#Im so glad that moca has made it clear that its not going to just stand around and watch this happen#because while I kind of get where ran is coming from this is not the sort of decision you make for a group of people#itd be one thing if it was just them wanting to quit personally but deciding that the whole of them need to disband?#especially while knowomg full well how passionate the others are about this#I love ran dearly and generally Im not one to call bndori characters shitty#but thats real fucking shitty. ran is doing a shitty thing here.#and its so important that moca especially challenges that#I especially like how moca thought of this as being another example of ran running away from their future#I hadnt thought of it that way before but that makes so much sense actually I really love it#to ran the future of the band is uncertain which in turn makes it scary to continue to put their all into#they dont want it to fizzle out and die without them being able to stop it so theyre trying to take matters into their own hands#but in turn theyre giving up on all of the things that made them so scared to fizzle out in the first place#they dont want to have to face figuring out their next step so its simply easier to just tear it all down#they arent doing the hard thing they think theyre doing#afterglow is going to end one day and thats ok. whats not ok is tearing it apart out of fear of losing it in a worse way#ran thinks that the others dont have solid goals. fine. thats smth to bring up with everyone as a concern not to use to justify ending it#the way theyre just making the executive decision sucks so bad and I need the rest of afterglow to stand up to them abt that#this is what all of them need.#Im still a bit worried abt how this arc will play out but Im becoming more open to it then before#Im just glad theyre not having everyone just sit down and take the beating#I hope himari uses the opportunity to actually express anger because its been too long fr#my faith in the bndori writers is slowly being restored just gimme a good himari standing up for afterglow moment and we're golden
