I was looking back through the manga for Twilight’s childhood memory chapters and stumbled across the one where Handler is training the rash young agent. Lol at this flashback on her part:
What about hoisting a grown man by the shirt and making him sweat like that counts as “soft?”
Tiger Mom Sylvia. She’s the best.
In seriousness, she really was responsible for huge changes in Twilight’s worldview and personality. She transformed a rash, angry-at-the-world, traumatized young soldier into a cold, calculating, deeply rational* spy who would do anything to prevent war and no longer blindly hates Ostanians. Or rather she forced him to develop that kind of mask so he could survive and perform as a top agent. Deep down, he retained his core compassion and soft heart despite it all.
*Except when it comes to Yor and Anya lol

I don’t know how to explain it but these two give off the same energy for me. The Handler and Flamme are our protagonists’ mentor and can be considered to be a major influence in their lives. Both are also wonderful characters in their own way!

Did not expect that last post to get that much love, thanks guys :) I’m wrapping up my exams and another commission, but for now here’s a colored version that I made a couple weeks ago.

If I had to choose my favorite character from spy x family it would be this guy
1. He has funny and chill uncle energy
2. He's so underrated it's painful. He doesn't even have a name or codename(
3. He clearly worked in WISE for a long time, but still is impulsive as hell
4. He asked Twilight for a fuckin drink after Wheeler ark (the most dangerous mission they all had since the beginning of Operation Strix)
(Also am I the only one who sees the uncle teasing his angsty nephew about his first crush? No one else? Alright)
His comment about marital problems makes me think he had a family at some point and understands Twilight's inner conflict
Like here he clearly was both serious and teasing about tearful reunion. He suggested it seriously, because he understands that Twilight wants it deep down (He even calls Anya his girl). But he also teases the hell outta Loid for being in denial
5. He's the only agent that isn't afraid of Handler. He's even confident enough to argue with her and scold her in front of other agents. And honestly I feel like Silvia holds a lot of respect for him despite those arguments. It would be very interesting to know their history (not like we gonna have it in canon, they are too minor characters)
6. He seems to have this relaxed kind of wisdom that balances with his impulsive reactions
Thanks for listening to my TED talk

Spy x Family Short Mission: Exhibition
@sy-on-boy was able to attend the Spy x Family exhibition that's currently going on in Japan and shared some great coverage! She was also gracious enough to let me translate her photos of the 4-page omake manga that's included in the pamphlet. It's an adorable short mission about the characters visiting the exhibition themselves (sorry for my terrible editing skills 😅)
The 4th-wall breaking jokes are hilarious 😂 Thank you Endo for making an already great event even more enjoyable! And thank you again sy-on-boy for sharing this with those of us who aren't able to attend!
