the reason we need to make kids read the classics is i cannot continue to survive watching people gush about the gorgeous writing of texts composed of the most mediocre sentences in existence

So last night I had this dream, probably thanks to the New Year's party and reading fanfics until dawn, about a romantic/humor/drama history between Caine The Ringmaster, Pomni The Jester, and Able The Magician.
And since I was left wanting more, I did what a responsible person would do with a graphics tablet, a lot of imagination and lack of sleep.
*Inhale in insomnia*
Make my own content.
So let me introduce them to...
The perfect triad
Summary: After a bad joke of fate and many misunderstandings, Polina's life is altered not only by having agreed to work at TADC but also by becoming the new interest between the ringmaster and the magician.

"he believes he loves you very much" is such an iconic line. Mizu separately spent a little time with Akemi and a couple days with Taigen and figured out their entire relationship but also said I won't lie this sucks but that's none of my business farewell

I was singing along to Fair today and I noticed something fascinating: it's possible that there are three characters in the song: "I," "he," and "she."
Most of the first-person material in the song is in the form of quotations (e.g. and he'll say "it's not fair how much I love you"). We certainly have two characters, "he" and "she", who speak to each other throughout the song.
At the beginning and the end, however, something different might be going on. The song opens with a few verses in first person with no reference to "he" or "she" (It's what my heart just yearns to say...the reason I was born). Because Joey Batey is singing, it's easy to assume that this is "he" narrating. That may be the intention. It's interesting, though, that directly after this it switches to third person: Cos outwardly he says I try so hard to make you laugh at me / And she, she does, she laughs...
A similar thing happens at the end, starting with "how unfair they'll sing." This verse is narrated by an outside perspective: something looking in on the couple from outside. Fascinatingly, the chorus that comes after this is the only one that does not begin with a dialogue tag, simply saying "it's not fair." It's almost like that first line is a moment of the narrator's perspective before it switches back to dialogue between the characters.
Is this narrator a different person, perhaps a friend of the couple? Is it the world? Is it destiny? Is it the stars that hum and hear them? Regardless, they seem to be just as in love with the story and the people as the couple are with each other, and I think that's beautiful.
TLDR: The narrator in Fair may be a seperate entity from the characters within the song, but they are just as in love with the story as the characters are with each other.

Will people call Wednesday ooc and say that fans ruined the show when they realize that Wednesday and Xavier is not a slow burn and instead just a boy being obsessed with a girl who did nothing but shove in his face that she likes and is dating someone else?

I LOVE triangles.
The drama, the frustrations, the miscommunication, the will-they-won't-they, the longing, the "wishing it was me", you know. The Trope.
I love reading about it and knowing who the end game is and feeling bad for the second lead.
I. LOVE. IT.
But I don't like it when it's happening to me irl...
haha someone stab me from the sides than choose please....
