Aight Imma force myself to stop on ch77 and either wait for the next season to end or for official chapters to pick back up... but DAMN this is some good food!!! I loveee delving into the psyche of crazy ahh characters and these two?? Oh boy, aren't they fucked up! I especially love seeing how contradictory and spineless Mag can be. He's so far into his own ass he barely notices when his feelings for Lyna shine through the mess his revenge-obsessed mind has become-- and the fact that his nightmare was *regretting* said revenge?!? That's sooo juicy. I want to slice his brain and study it under a microscope. Lyna is less so fucked up and moreso a complete mess, so her crazy flares aren't as interesting as Mag's, but that's a whole can of worms in and of itself. She's kind of plain (like, personality wise) and seems to have normal levels of anxiety, considering her situation, but the glimpses we see of past-Ilyana shining through make me super invested into what will become of her in future chapters, now that she's got all pieces of herself back. Rather than seeing them "being in love pure-heartedly" I really hope we get to untangle many more facets of their relationship with each other as a whole before we reach the end~~ I think this is the first case were I don't actually want a lot of chapters w/ them being lovey-dovey lolol I want to see them biting eachother's heads off!!
I love when toxic romance is actually toxic and said toxicity is discussed and argued in-narrative this is a great find on the OI genre!
