#not sjm implying that freedom from slavery in this world could be earned in good behavior

[aho-dapa]

Not sjm having Hunt (another of sjm’s ambiguous collection of moc) think that Isaiah (a black man) bowing of all things to Micah (their mutual angel enslaver) and it triggering a whole ass dialogue about how Isaiah’s good behavior is what will likely have Micah set him free early while Hunt has had to take on the whole blood debt of his legion’s killings during the Fall (which means being Micah’s personal assassin), AND HAVE HUNT IMPLY THAT ISAIAH HAS IT EASIER (AND HAVING HUNT BE JEALOUS) BECAUSE WHY??? BECAUSE HUNT WOULDN’T LOWER HIMSELF LIKE THAT?? SJM, TELL ME, WHAT DO YOU THINK YOU’RE WRITING HERE????

listen, this could actually lead into a cool character building moment later on, but I have no faith in this woman

#not sjm implying that freedom from slavery in this world could be earned in good behavior #good behavior by a black man #of all things #like sjm #please #stop #anti sjm #anti ccity? #whatever #sure the world building is marginally better #but it’s still an sjm book
