Wtf is happening rn

Ugh this is gonna be so sweet and pure I can just FEEL it

Where Instant Karma felt like summer vacation days in the sun and playing on the beach and around the ocean, this one feels like the sunset after that day is over, warm and heading home with a tan while the sun turns the sky red

Ain’t no way this foreign community who doesn’t trust our main characters would take the MMC on a hunting trip so he can win the FMC’s hand in marriage, like… y’all don’t trust these people and are waiting to hear your ruler’s judgement on whether or not you should kill them, but nah let’s take this dude out to help him get his girl like WHAT okay

Not the white main characters laughing and giggling at another culture’s clothing because it looks like the MMC is wearing a dress 🙄

…. A girl on ur crew goes missing and just bc she was angry you’re not concerned to look for her???? Then she pops up captive by someone threatening to kill her??? Hmmm maybe you should’ve looked for her?????

…do you seriously have to say “ladies bun” every time you put your hair in a bun…

…no he’s not taking accountability 😐 literally just said to her “wasn’t my fault”

You know that’s a good point. He did nearly get someone killed, now they’re paralyzed, and he WONT take responsibility for it! He literally came on this mission (idek what the goal of it is) to get the charges dropped, but are you not going to take any accountability????

You’re surprised at how relieved you are when she wakes up from getting knocked out??? She’s a fellow crew mate, wouldn’t you be relieved regardless????

Tired of MCs who think they’re terrible people for having selfish thoughts like yeah maybe you shouldn’t be thinking those things but give me a true morally gray character who has those thoughts and still commits to those actions!!

One person on deck started crying separated from the crew bc it’s the anniversary of their siblings death… and now cut to a different scene the rest of the crew is just sharing their feelings and secrets with each other?? Did I miss something?

Ain’t no way she’s shook bc she killed the monster… it was mADE OF STONE!!!!! lmao

Also did the MMC ever apologize for the awful things he said about her earlier in the book??? I don’t recall 🤔

Deadly stone statues were scarier than a DRAGON ??? lmao okay

Omg how many times do you have to bring up the fact that y’all eat the same stale meal everyday?? We get it!

These MCs bring up their dead siblings so many times like okay I get it! Thanks!

Also — how did SHE who has no experience fighting or using a sword defeat the stone monster and not… the military man beside her… no he’s injured lmao okay

Y’all remember the odyssey and read first earth texts and obsess over them and still hold operas about them… yet don’t have the term PTSD???? You call it “battle fright”???? Lmaoooo yeah, okay, like the texts around PTSD wouldn’t have survived too

So confused at this worldbuilding… this guy doesn’t read so therefore he doesn’t know about dragons??? They exist!!! Even if you don’t read you’d think someone in the military would at least know how they work!!!

Also I was just about to say the FMC has been completely useless on this journey and has no reason to be here, but now they found something for her to do other than read, draw, and complain 😄

Is he seriously wondering if they’ll see a cyclops just bc he read the odyssey… just how futuristic is this world???

I have no idea what’s happening in this worlds politics??? Nor do I care???

For being such a futuristic society (I think) you’d think people would stop smoking… and the fact that the MMC used to but only stopped because a sister died (presumably unrelated)… meh

ALSO for being such a futuristic society, they’re strangely obsessed with the odyssey and classics??? Like I didn’t sign up for analysis of Homer’s epics lmao 😭

I’m so tired of the trope(?) of there being something bigger to worry about but I’m still going to get momentarily distracted by the butterflies in my stomach when you brush my shoulder like bro… your friend was missing for days and you just found him unconscious and half dead, who cares about an arm???

This girl nearly got killed by a dragon and her thoughts go “”she wished she could find the nest and sketch the babies” omg I hate when authors write “artists” 😭

Ain’t no way they just almost kissed… not even 40% of the way through the book… okay…

Honestly guys, when we mean “slow burn” we mean the development is slow, not the moment they “finally” kiss. As in, a ship isn’t slow burn just because they took the whole book to kiss. It has to take them the whole/most of the book to even admit feelings or attraction on a deeper level. Idk if that makes sense

There’s dragons now???
I’m bored lol. The worldbuilding goes in one ear and out the other, a lot of it’s just been dumped like a textbook, the characters don’t have much chemistry and are just immature around each other… meh

I don’t even really know what’s going on rn

“Instead of putting Hallie in her place —“

Excuse me sir? Putting who in what place?

Kinda bored :/

Did she seriously ask him to slow down the ship because she can’t draw straight while they’re on a mission???? Okay…

They’re being really childish right now
