The conflict wouldn’t be so bad if we didn’t have to wait a bit for an update (I’m not tryna rush the TLs or the author, I just mean that the conflict wouldn’t feel as bad if we didn’t have to marinate on it? Like, pacing wise? I’m struggling to explain, but I feel like the conflict wouldn’t be that bad if we just didn’t have an update for several months/until the conflict is resolved in story, then have it updated one chapter each day? Cuz the IRL time gap makes things feel longer than it actually is compared to just binging it. Am I making sense?? I don’t mean any offense or anything)
I get Elsa’s POV but I’m noticing that she’s largely upset under a false assumption due to her own insecurities (which is annoying even if it’s realistic)
Plus, her getting mad feels outta nowhere cuz she was all blush blushy when she woke up and Evie hugged her— basically acting like nothing happened.
The flip only switched when EVIE brought it up first— and when Elsa woke up, she was literally playing dumb “what are the test results?” And then next chapter it’s revealed she watched the whole thing, so why was she acting like she knew nothing?
She’s not any better than Evie. Idk how Evie’s supposed to make it up to her when Evie being honest wasn’t good enough— literally can’t even envision how the resolution is gonna go (maybe I’m just not creative enough, idk) cuz IRL, I feel like once trust is broken, that’s the end of the relationship— and Elsa doesn’t trust Evie anymore (maybe I’m dumb and missed smthn cuz I don’t understand why she’s assuming Evie never cared about her) and trust is super hard to repair
And maybe I’m salty cuz Evie was literally gonna tell her and she gets mad when she’s finally got the balls (not literally tho) to be honest— and when she’s FINALLY honest, it blows up in her face and she’s painted like a villainess over stuff she never said or implied
don’t get me wrong, I’d get it if Elsa was skeptical; “you knew this was story, idk if your feelings are even real cuz this prolly isn’t even ‘reality’ to you— it’s real to me, this is my life” kinda shtick, and I could see the trust being mended back cuz it’s not completely shattered
But Elsa confidently asserting— insisting— that Evie never cared about her, than she was just using her, that her words are just lies that she can’t fall for ever again— that level of distrust/caution it can’t be repaired so easily
TL;DR: the frustration for me comes from the IRL time gap, Elsa acting like nothing happened until Evie brings it up (which doesn’t make her any better imo, cuz she easily could’ve been planning to keep it a secret herself or bring it up later, instead of immediately tryna confront Evie) and Elsa’s complete loss of trust in Evie
The complete loss of trust is the biggest issue for me— that kinda crap can’t be resolved in a single chapter. If Elsa was more lukewarm and doubting, then it being resolved in a chapter or two is plausible to me— but I can not fathom going from not trusting your partner AT ALL to acting like nothing even happened just from one convo— regardless of what Evie even says, cuz if the truth didn’t ease Elsa, then what will ease her other than lots of time and Evie’s continued affection through it all?
I’m already expecting that their relationship won’t be back to how it was before all this— so even if the main hiccup is overcome in next chapter, we won’t get fluff for a long while (NOOOOO! THE FLUFFF ;-;) and if we do, I’ll be pressed cuz I doubt it’ll feel right for them to go back to normal, there’s deep rooted issues that need to be addressed which I doubt will take priority over the plot, so the two will have to navigate the loss of trust while also trying to make sure the world doesn’t auto correct itself or whatever) so it kinda just sucks…
And like, because of how it’s been handled so far, even if it’s over in the next chapter and everything is back to business as usual, its gonna suck cuz Elsa’s whole “I can’t waver, I shouldn’t forgive her so easily” attitude is gonna be undermined (if that’s the right word); her getting upset in the first place is gonna make this whole arc feel dumb and pointless (plus if it’s immediate resolved the insecurity issue won’t be addressed or it won’t be addressed well)
And I feel like the only “right” way is for them to stop dating for a bit so they can fall back in love with each other for reals— since they’re both, in a way, pretending to be someone they’re not,
evie isn’t “evie” I can’t recall if she has memories of her past life but if she clearly does, then sharing that would be Elsa learning about the “real Evie” (past life name drop? Maybe?)
Elsa’s insecure but Evie’s only known her for being super bubbly and stuff— (have we ever seen Elsa be insecure and doubting herself? Cuz Ch 1 Elsa “id never end my life” is def diff from current Elsa “maybe it’d be better if I gave other me my body” (which wouldn’t she basically die? She’s just giving up her life at that point, no?)
Like, I feel like the relationship can only be mended when they both open up whole heartedly to each other, no more secrets or nothing, which can’t be resolved in a single chapter (or it may feel kinda lame) but that’s prolly just me, and this whole rant prolly makes no sense
