#like the rage is consuming me oaisudoiausd

[jankwritten]

ALSO THE WAY THAT THE BOOK STARTS IS JUST SO INFURIATING TO ME! OKAY!

Like I get it. It's supposed to be a funny haha joke that it's not that serious of a decision, but that tone IMMEDIATELY gets confused by Nico seeming genuinely nervous about how the others are going to respond to his answer?? So then we spend the whole rest of the scene wondering if we're actually supposed to think Nico finds this decision so scary and hard, or if he's making a lighthearted joke out of it, because IT CAN'T BE BOTH.

(And, also, considering the shit that Nico's been through, it almost feels distasteful for him to be like "This is the hardest decision I've ever had to make, in fact I don't think I can actually make it at all" even in jest, but that might just be because they don't fully commit to that drama through the whole scene and therefore it falls COMPLETELY flat)

#tsats #tsats spoilers #i'm literally losing my mind #im like one of those freaks who drives themself crazy hating something #like the rage is consuming me oaisudoiausd #i am just genuinely so confused how people are praising the writing itself as great and brilliant and wonderful and poetic #like it has it's moments for sure. but so much of it is cliche and derivative and just....blegh?
