+ it feels like she took the blonde girl’s place and filled in her shoes rather than make her own place in the world and prove the blonde girl wrong and that the mc is indeed better than the blonde. like thats so icky brooooo i want her to be BETTER than that bitch not good enough if the blonde wasn’t there.
ik there’s probably gonna be some plot where “they were manipulated by the blonde” but it feels like the lack of presence of the blonde is whats wrong. because they kept being drawn to the mc without her doing anything and it feels like the mc is doing the manipulating. it doesn’t feel satisfying and it feels like they’re forced to like her even when it’s against her will, like im actually just waiting for her to be called out as a villain. it feels like shit omg im not sure if im making sense but if u get it u get it yk
I think the blonde bitch was stealing her powers, remember the ritual thing they did? the sharing powers bit, that was it
yeah ik but her receiving all this love doesn’t feel as justified and as satisfying than if she was in a timeline where she didn’t let the older sister use her powers and showed everyone else the terrible side of her older sister.
even if the sister wasn’t as powerful as her it was evident that she was at least well liked, if not by the duke’s family then everyone else. and the mc herself gets nightmares about people blaming her for taking her sister’s place making it seem like SHE’s the imposter even though the sister was the fake all along.
it doesn’t feel great and it feels like she lost to her sister because the only way she’d win(be loved and deemed as powerful) was if it were in a timeline where her sister was gone.
sorry i yapped but hopefully this kind of explains it?
fuck that's so true
yk what i hate, its the fact that the blonde girl practically doesn’t exist in this lifetime. i know, i get it, its in the title but its just not satisfying yk. it feels like she got hand-me downs, like instead of her being better and liking her more, they liked her more because the blonde wasn’t there and that pisses me off like i feel like the blonde girl won because this is actual torture(to feel like they don’t like you for you but because your “sister” doesn’t exist so they have no choice but to like you instead) AND YK WHAT THE BLONDE BITCH WANTED???? for her to live MISERABLY.
idk if im making sense but im at like chap 20 and im so sure it wont get better. the only way to make it better is if the blonde girl appears and face slapping occurs.
