something something the anguish in hades of preferring you and your father maim beat and kill each other instead of having a normal conversation. and having your father prefer that to happen over and over and over again instead of simply talking. what the fuck.
When you realize that when Link gets the Master Sword, he doesn’t swing it around like usual. Instead he respectfully bows his head to the blade because he now knows what’s up. Just like Zelda did when she realized what she had to do. It’s like he’s reassuring both her and Fi that he WILL do whatever it takes to defeat Ganondorf and save Hyrule.
Thinking about Madotsuki tonight and feeling A Lot of things
One thing I for whatever reason really like to think about is her possible relationship to Poniko. Poniko is one of the only characters that actually resembles Madotsuki in terms of her appearance, along with Monoko and Monoe. Poniko has her own room is also one of the only areas that looks like something more "realistic" so to speak compared to everywhere else
It makes me wonder if Poniko might have actually been a real person Madotsuki knew in her life. Her appearance and area looking more grounded than basically anywhere else make me wonder if they were close with each other in some way, too. Girlfriends, close friends, anything of that nature
The fact that Poniko also has a chance of being replaced by the monstrous Uboa when the lights are turned off also makes me wonder about the nature of their relationship. Was Poniko abusive to Madotsuki somehow? Is this maybe just a representation of Madotsuki simply being afraid that Poniko will hurt her, even if she hasn't? Was Poniko hurt by someone that is represented by Uboa replacing her and trapping Madotsuki? Were both of them hurt by someone? There are a lot of possibilities here, and I think all of them are fascinating
I am just. Very normal about Madotsuki and Poniko. I am very normal about the two of them having some sort of connection to each other, whatever it may be
It also makes me wonder more about Monoko and Monoe. Maybe they were students Madotsuki went to school with, on account of the both of them wearing school uniforms. Maybe all four of these characters knew each other in real life. Maybe Monoko, Monoe, and Poniko are still waiting to see Madotsuki again. Waiting for the day she finally leaves her apartment again and tells them she's okay
Maybe Madotsuki has people who love and care for her, but that she can't bring herself to face
