…If this plan is doomed to fail, not because I think the narrative is setting it up for it (which it is btw but I digress), but because whoever possessed Rania’s body doesn’t realise a misaligned soul is just bound to be off-putting to people. For Camilla, it was to a GREAT extreme where everyone around her just HATED her in her other life because her soul just didn’t belong to that world in the first place.
For this Rania who’s trying to form personal bonds (for her own agenda but personal nonetheless), trying to get closer emotional is just… not… it. When Ravi was like “I don’t hate her but I don’t really feel like getting closer”, it just made me think of that.
Of course everyone back in that poor town where Camilla first met her liked her because she’s doing stuff for them. They don’t know her character, they don’t need to, but they know of her good deeds so SURELY she must be a good person. Similar to the way Camilla might have been universally off-putting to everybody close to her in her other life but she made it to being an award-winning top actress anyway.
Rania just has that effect at a MUCH lesser scale because while whoever it is may be in the wrong body, but they are still in the right world.
