Mixed feelings

(^_−)~☆ March 27, 2024 2:46 am

I honestly can't seem to grasp this story for the life of me. At times the FL seems like a goal-driven, ambitious and clever woman, and at times she seems plain dumb. I hate how the author glossed over a literal CHILD'S DEATH, for fucks sake, was it really necessary? I honestly hoped Arabella to live, like she deserved; and even worse, she died alone, without the only person who loved her sincerely. Also I have mixed feelings about Cesare, i mean, i can't really hate him for things he hasn't done yet, we as readers are able to gloss over the stuff the FL did in the past, which are just as bad as Cesare did, and we're able to forgive her and not him, who didn't even do those things? Seems like hypocritical to me. Anyways, thanks for reading my ted talk.

    I think that the author is purposely showing us how the FL is just a human. Yes she wants to take her revenge on her family, yes she’s clever but that doesn’t mean that she’s less human than before… About Cesar, he just doesn’t love the FL… Very often, we can see that he doesn’t care about her as a lover but more as a way to get to the throne and hurt Alfonso. We’re supposed to blame him for the things, he wants to do (like manipulate the feeling of the FL to hurt Alfonso), we can see that when he didn’t hunt the « golden deer » as a way to make the FL fell in love

    We can forgive her because she was pitiful and HE wasn't, HELLO?! He was always in a position that he could get whatever he wanted and she had to get her position through sins she didn't want to commit but had to because of her situations. So ya I don't need to forgive his disgusting perverted and cheating ass EVER. In my opinion i think the authour made the FL pretty friggin spot on because any and everyone if they were to relive their life again they'd prolly friggin rationalize it as if it was just a long ass nightmare and would only take it half-seriously while getting swept up in their emotions in the process, no?

    Ariadne is living like someone who experienced a bad nightmare and is simply doing what she can to avoid repeating it while in the process finding REAL LOVE and accidently getting side-tracked. SHE'S HUMAN. HELLO? NOT AN ALL KNOWING GOD.

    The child's death was never glossed over because our FL is maintaining her death fresh in her mind to stay motivated to get revenge (she maybe indulging in love but she will never gloss over her sisters death) CHILL. Or did you forget who the real villains of this story are?

    LMFAO I think the one who has to chill isn't me I'm sorry but I've never said you had to forgive Cesare, and clearly he's been friggin brainwashed by his mother and neglected by his father. I won't ever forgive Cesare in the other timeline, but bro they are not the same person. And about the FL, sorry but love makes you do dumb shit, and she does, but I never once implied she was an "all known god" LMAO
    And btw, I haven't forgotten who the villains are and you just seem to imply i'm villanizing the MC which I'm not lol, she as of late has done some questionable choices, and i'm allowed to rant about it as much as u did just now

    Yes!! I never implied otherwhise, it's just weird for me that on the last chapter she accepted the ride of a total stranger who just claimed to be sent by the prince instead of the guy she already knew ;;; it irks me when authors make their characters go ooc just for a scene to take place but ig she just trusts the prince and doesn't question it?? lol. And yeah, I never claimed Cesare was in love with her, bc he clearly isn't, but it seems like people are hating him for things he did in the other timeline, which are probably not gonna happen on this one. He's still garbage but I try to understand his motives, he's been on the side most of his life, and he's a pretty good contrast to Alfonso who's just a sweetheart.

    Pfffft really? They not the same person? So if Ariadne made the same exact choices you don't think he would've too? Please bffr right now. The fact that you chose to choose the wrong person to defend or not even defend lets just say you're choosing to play devils adovcate and rant that both sides are equally wrong you'd still be wrong because of the simple fact the Cesare wasn't entirely brainwashed he himself chose to be shit bag because of his ego. And his so call "love" is an illusion because his ego was hurt by Ariadne not wanting him.

    Why is only her choices being questioned? (Duh obviously because she the lead character in this story) but nobody else is being questioned for their stupid ass decisions? The author did a damn good job at laying out who was wronged and who wasn't yet people are still choosing to even think that the one who wasn't can still be forgiven because he's "nOt ThE sAmE pErSoN nOw" how cute. Redemption is only possible if a person is aware of the wrongs they commited and chooses to atone by excepting the punishment or avoiding making the wrong decisions (Ariadne would be that person) not someone who doesn't know and is simply changing their tactic because the variables have changed (Cesare is a perpetrator with different strategy).

    Oh you're allowed to speak, just don't sound so dumb while saying something or you'll just keep getting the same result.

    wait so you're saying she's being dumb for simply acting like ... a noble ?? why would she have to care about who rides her carriage ? and she also doubted it for a second so i don't even know where the issue with her simply acting like who she is.. nothing is out of character, if you think it is then maybe you should re-read the story

    and for cesare, he LITERALLY is the same man as he was in his previous life. even worse if you tell me because he only sees Ariadne as a price because she doesn't want him and it hurts his little ego to see a woman not interested in him. if she did turned back to her old self then cesare would just treat her the exact same way he did because that's how men like him act. smh
