there's gotta be fanfic of regressing rashta, right?

my toxic trait is imagining rashta learns her lesson and saves her kid before running away to establish her independence far from any royal drama. and somehow fate still tries to set up a meetcute between her and sovieshu but this time she fucks him up and tries to actually ally with navier and express her idolization of her in a healthier manner. maybe some GL down the line. who said that?

(edit: fun fact, people with piss poor reading comprehension will never read below this line)

specifically fanfic because we all know narrative-wise it would be impossible and 99% says if given the chance to regress, rashta would be more of a menace than she had been.

this ending tugged at heartstrings and made us contemplate her upbringing, yes, but it doesn't erase the fact that rashta only ever starts to regret anything when her neck is on the line. given a little leeway, she bounces right back to abusing others with little to no character development. even in her last moments, she gives in to paranoia and stabs the maid who turns a blind eye to her escape. it's the same shit you see people in high-stress jobs do to customer service workers. are they pitiful in their predicament? sure. but does it give them an excuse to take out their trauma and frustration on someone else more defenseless than them? nah.

    Who gives a shit? She's literally absolute garbage and you simps need mental help. She wasn't a helpless person in all this, and she'd even probably still be empress if she wasn't so cruel and petty. Y'all have excuses for anything with a vagina.

    The author wrote a side story with 8 chapters named “if Rashta went to Navier”. In the official translation (on Yonder), it’s ss56-63. I think you will like it.

    'Wasn't helpless'? She came from nothing, she was treated less than human. Will that not drive anyone to be bitter and resentful?
    Sure, she was daft but doesn't that make it all the more tragic?
