#I VOTE THEIR NOCTURNE SHIP NAME BE “JUSTEBOX TRIO”

[dahliadreamcraft]

wait a damn minute

Huh. Well that’s weirdly specific.

yikes, poor Maxim—

WAIT A FUCKING MINUTE. IN A VAMPIRE SHOW SAYING A CHARACTER’S “NOT QUITE DEAD” CARRIES A CERTAIN INHERENT IMPLICATION.

DID MAXIM BECOME A VAMPIRE??

I mean Maxim becoming a vampire would make sense as that’s literally what happened in Harmony of Dissonance, however temporary that was. Presumably there’s no convenient way of reversing vampirism like in the game so if Maxim did become a vampire, he’d stay a vampire. Being forced to mercy-kill your best friend after he was turned into a vampire presumably against his will would definitely add yet another layer of —

Juste. JUSTE. WHY ARE YOU GLOSSING OVER THIS LIKE YOU DIDN’T JUST IMPLY YOUR BEST FRIEND BECAME A VAMPIRE. YOU’RE BEING SPECIFIC ENOUGH ABOUT WHAT YOU SAID TO YOUR WIFE AS SHE DIED IN YOUR ARMS WHY THE FUCK ARE YOU NOT CLARIFYING IF YOUR FRIEND BECAME A VAMPIRE OR NOT?!

WHY ARE YOU BEING CONVENIENTLY VAGUE ABOUT THE EXACT CIRCUMSTANCES OF MAXIM’S DEATH?!

So, let me get this right.

You’re telling me, that the character most likely to become a vampire, the driving force of conflict in Harmony of Dissonance, the second protagonist of HoD, whose exact death you are being conveniently vague about—

—WAS STILL ALIVE TO HEAR THE PHRASE “COME BACK TO ME,” SAID BY JUSTE, WHO WE JUST GOT FAIRLY EXPLICIT CONFIRMATION IS GOING TO HAVE TO CONFRONT HIS PAST NEXT SEASON?!

Oh, please tell me this is going exactly where I think it is. PLEASE.
