Higuchi’s Unrevealed Ability

Sk8 does a really good job at differentiating between love vs. obsession with the way Adam and Langa’s connection to each other is portrayed vs. how their relationships with Tadashi and Reki are portrayed. Adam and Langa’s scenes together are so loud and dramatic, filled to the brim with over the top romance. Langa literally gets chest pains from skating with Adam, and Adam’s obsession is pretty self-explanatory

But every romantic Renga scene feels so…quiet, yk? Just the two of them, talking to each other very casually or tenderly. It feels way more personal. Even the Tadaai scenes feel very private, they don’t usually say much to each other but soooooooo much tension and emotional turmoil is packed into every line

Idk I just really like that the main relationships all feel so genuine. It’s never some high stakes soulmate connection, but rather two people who happen to be good for each other in all the right ways. That’s also why I like that they made Tadashi the Snake in Adam’s whole biblical metaphor rather than pulling some “he was Adam’s real Eve the whole time” thing

I don’t talk abt Matchablossom much but I feel this way about them too, Joe and Cherry are peak “couple that has been together way too long but don’t have any plans of breaking up any time soon” energy

sometimes I wonder why y'all are obsessed with specific characters and I'm like "why them" but then I remember that sometimes its literally not your choice you just look at them wrong and all of a sudden they're taking up your every thought forever

Heavy love ^^ (or something like that...)

“Montresor never would have stayed with Will, it’s so out of character!”

Agreed! Montresor absolutely would not have stayed with Will, he would’ve thanked him for his service and then gotten tf out of there.

That’s why he was purposefully given a debilitating injury.

Monty has been shown in the past to have some amount of fucked up “care” for Will, that’s undeniable. It’s also undeniable that he’s a selfish bastard who would have probably abandoned Will the second he could.

WHICH IS WHY THE AUTHOR MADE IT SO HE CAN’T.

Monty’s not an idiot- despite everything he’s just not. He’d very clearly putting on a brave face about the extent his injury is disabling him, we see that as the audience. He also knows it’s serious, it’s why he humiliated himself by begging Annabel for help, he would have bled out and died on those steps because he can’t move.

Monty not leaving Will isn’t out of character because there is quite literally no logical reason for him to leave.

Let’s say he leaves Will behind. That gives him maybe a few seconds, even a minute let’s say, to escape from the Wild Hunt. This mythical beast they barely know shit about who’s essentially immune to the only defense these people have and who is laser-focused.

Montresor can’t stand up unassisted.

He can barely stand up at all.

He’s dead either way, he may as well stay with Will.

(Also, Monty is a cruel and careless piece of shit, but his words contradict his actions because his words aren’t reliable. He’s a liar and like Annabel says, he’s severely insecure. He’s very intentionally projecting the “I don’t care about anyone” mask; we see that especially in the new episode where he purposefully puts on an air to save that dog.)
