something something very hot take i wish. more characters got to do crazy perception shattering things of their own free will without either 1. something else manipulating the situation or 2. something random getting in the way
#i'm going to sound like a broken record to my dear friends bc i literally talk about this so much but like#number one example easy xin mo#i wish it had been more of a like. exploration of how fucked up binghe is because of everything he's been through#and like a free will decision to do something that drastic#and then see how that changes the way people see him (i DONT think it would really change the ending but)#and ALSO i personally think it would work better with sqq s arc of the consequences of his actions affecting people but oh well#demon sword ๐Ÿ˜”๐Ÿ˜”๐Ÿ˜”๐Ÿ˜”๐Ÿ˜”#number two example monty's gun in noblemans guide i literally DO NOT shut up abt this scene#let him kill someone. let adrien be so confident that he is going to die and that his brother would never kill someone#THEN LET HIM FIRE THE GUN AND HAVE IT FUCKING WORK#because with this it's like. there's a split second of hey maybe this will change their relationship but then it's never revisited because#it wasn't actually that significant of a turning point in their dynamic because adrien didn't have to watch monty kill someone#and from my perspective as the reader i've ALREADY seen monty kill someone but not without heat of the moment#and it would be a great testament to his development without giving adrien up as narrator#AND. it would be an important moment for monty because he would have been willing to kill someone over his brother who up until then#he didn't really seem to care about???#but NOOOOOO the gun had to be broken and not fire correctly#baz. shut up challenge
