(Spoilers below, kinda)
●the men (not ML):
○each could have easily been the ML, especially in any other manhwa (well the preist is diff, but couldnt have been family at least)
-in other words, towards the beginning/early middle their actions/concern (besides CP haha) could have easily set them up for a happy ending with MC
○the MC didnt want them BUT THEY KEEP PERSISTING
☆you need BOTH parties to consent to a relationship to make it work
○even ignoring some of the crazier stuff they did later (attempt rape and incest) without MC consent, their obsession becomes unwanted (duh) and therefore disgusting
¤shows how selfish and self centered their affectionate really was (similar to og villainess's dad to her mom)
●the og FL:
○the manhwa was very objective (in my opinion) about her
○she was nice but weak
-she was nice but her actions and naivety was hurting others
-she was weak but because everyone in her life told her she was powerless so there was no point in trying to think for herself
○I do think she was put in a situation where she couldnt say no to the imperial family (well no one can, but since she was a servant they could easily kill her with a flick of a wrist, compared to nobles (example: MCs from other manhwas) who can say no without immediately fearing for their life) AND in that situation, she tried to make the best of it clinging to her naivety
○I like how the MC hated her simply to hate her (well out of jealousy and stuff) instead of self righteous reason
-u can tell her tries to give reason (ex: she makes the other maid do her share) but then looked at the situation objectively and is like "nah im just a hater" (ex: stating she doesnt have much choice in her life, as in shes FORCED to make the other maid do her share)
○MC hated her (for the most part) but she never wished harm on her and even sincerely wished for her happiness
○when og FL gained power (and essentially choice) she chose to not be naive anymore and to not fall in love with CP
¤both og FL and MC are girls' girls
■Didnt mean to write this much haha, had more to say but im tired now lolol, was gonna write about the maid, ml, and finally mc (maybe ill pull thro)
●maid:
○My shayla!!!!!
○She was soooo sweet and loving to both souls and she has my heart for that
●ml:
○Only guy who didnt try to push his affection/thoughts/wants onto MC and was the only one to respect her as an individual
○only thing I feel weird about is that he would have loved the og villainess too, totally agree that u can deeply love more than one person, but it makes u feel like he would have loved ANY soul in that body if they chose him as a knight
-THAT SAID, I dont think he would have tbh, he clearly has a type in terms of souls/personalities, if anything love is all about timing, and once he loves, he LOVES, im just happy he got his happy ending in this love this time
○totally did feel like a Ken (from barbie) but he was cool with it so yay
●MC:
○Love her and I can list a lot but I feel like many have already haha
○back to the jealousy thing, she was very objective about it which I really liked, the only thing was the whole "thinking og FL was surrounded by love while she didnt have anyone", which wasnt objective since A) og FL was surrounded by love but no one actually loved HER as a person (more of an object) and B) mc was surrounded by love too (maid, dress maker [tho she did betray her but again imperial family = can kill easily], ML, etc btw this counts for both MC and og villainess)
-BUT considering that she just entered the world and couldnt really trust anyone it makes sense she would think that way and no one can fault her for that
