dude carrying the whole series, it's hard to believe that yuri books also exist in that world lol.

A yuri king and a chad??? Garth is a force to be reckoned with

The male version of Watanabe has arrived. :D

The difference being Watanabe's scummy personality.

the yuri knight himself, here to represent us o7

and our man is already working to get the two together, what a chad

So, tired of the endless drag the author decided to place one of us into the story?

... understandable.

He just like me fr fr

The exposition around Garth is just so incredibly silly as it's trying to fancily say "he likes yuri stories like you degenerates"

A bit, yes. Although they do have in common that they both plan to stay in the background, not getting involved themselves. Garth just doesn't go quite as far as to completely consider himself mob. :D

You say that like it's a bad thing. XD

Yvonne: "I can't admit that I'm in love with Elsa, because I believe that the physical laws of this reality make us being together a literal impossibility, yet I still struggle with letting go of those feelings because I'm human."

Readers: Still think Evie is just "dense."

Y'all. She knows that Elsa likes her, and she realizes that her own feelings are very much in the same vein. But she's so traumatized by the Villainess System (which, as people have pointed out, has included such directives as "push Elsa to her probable death" and, apparently, "stab Elsa with the knife she just gifted you") that she believes it's impossible for them to be together. And if that's true, then allowing herself to be in love with Elsa will only make things so much harder for both of them.

Elsa isn't safe around Evie, the Villainess System could strike at any time. The only ways to avoid it are for Yvonne to stay away from her (she tried that, and Elsa tracked her down), or have Elsa fulfil her story purpose and get together with a real love interest (which, she was literally created to do). Then, Yvonne's story purpose will presumably be fulfilled as well, ending the Villainess System and allowing her to be around Elsa without endangering her. And it's clear that Evie doesn't think "the heroine and the villainess get together" will count for that win condition. (whether she's correct about that assumption is obviously still up in the air, and I'm betting she's not)

I actually really, really like the psychology that's going on in this story, even if it's sometimes subtle. I loved Elsa's pained musing that maybe she should just accept "rejection," and I love that Garth is here to shake up the status quo. I also love how Evie went from "I just need to get away from her," to "I just need to get her together with someone, anyone," to "I need to make sure she gets together with someone good for her," to "I'm going to pick the person literally closest to actually being with me possible, in the hopes that will work." Despite how much she believes their relationship is doomed, she still can't help but want to be closer and closer with Elsa.

I don't know if this guy is a genius or an idiot for just telling her, Elsa loves her. We shall see next chapter.

I rarely read longer comments in this thread, but boy did I choose right in choosing this one to be it, because it's so on point.

It's from getting rejected in a dream. It also has a serialized version

Maaan with how deep and intense Evie's self conflict is going, I really can't wait to see some spicy drama or angst or something literally adrenaline rushing event despite my past hopes of them not happening. Like Evie running away from Elsa after she confesses but Elsa catches up instead of the usual depression mode and finally affirming their love or something. God just reading these kinds of analysis makes my brain go full on fantasy mode.

Agreed. Besides, the villainess system doesn't punish Yvonne alone. The first time it punished her whole family as well, stripping them of their titles and exiling them. If it does that for disobeying a single time alone, who knows what might happen if she dares to disobey it again.

The whole "mare" thing makes the situation even worse, especially since they don't seem to follow the game original script and are out there trying to seriously hurt or kill Elsa.

If Yvonne stays with Elsa, one of them is bound to be either seriously injured or even killed. If Yvonne is gone, Elsa's negative feelings will be strong enough to get possessed by a mare, setting her up for a painful ending and without Yvonne there to save her.

Homegirl Yvonne is screwed no matter what she does. Damned if you do, damned if you don't.

Unless she has the cahones to risk it and fulfill the role of true love interest herself, and have faith that doing that would make the system go away for good.

At this point it would’ve been easier to tell Elsa about the villainess system than break both of your hearts with this lie.

Why did she have to be mean :(

It could be that she physically can't talk about it, or if she does, the system punishes her for it.
Still painful as hell tho.

I feel like with the stuff she's been doing lately the villainess system must be really threatening her. The last time she disobeyed it caused her whole family to get exiled and previously it tried to kill Dorothy, so maybe it threatened Dorothy again?

We the viewers also see the villaness tho, so maybe it's either a hard lie or maybe the other side taking over again? All in all, I very much miss the wholesome ark.

I just want them to be cute and cuddle in bed and do minor stuff like the water cup over head.

Or lightharded stuff like with the teacher.

But alas I am not the author, So I guess all I can do is wait

I'm surprised by how normal and sane the Garth/Dorothy plan ended up being. Boiled down to Dorothy sitting Yvonne down and going "look, I am in love with you for real. Just want to clear up any misunderstandings."
