(admittedly godot gets only 2.5 total cases, but i felt like i could've taken another 3-3 easily.) - the series' obsession with your assistant being a 15 year old girl has clearly passed weird territory. just let them age; the players and player characters have. ryonusuke having romantic feelings for a girl 8 years his junior is weird - why can't susato's canonical age just be 21 instead? --- yet all azuarc of all sorts are more or less capricious and unreliable - they live in the varying outer weather, and they inhale its fickleness <cite>SeabassDebeste posted [p:972077575] in Post Your ...
