... UH. WELL.

Most of the time it involves fantasy sequences of leaping out of third story windows, followed swiftly by lamentations at Thusia's lack of windows, quickly disrupted by having to hit Messenger in the face.

And by that I mean it's actually STUPIDLY SOMEHOW really good for both of them?? Like, they're both into that really deep, heavy emotional stuff, the kind that could (and has, in both their cases) make you go legit crazy. Yet their derp and fail and antics provides a much-needed distraction from that, along with the knowledge that they both sort of GET IT? They've mastered the art of unspoken understanding where that heavy stuff is concerned, so it's like solidarity without having to address it directly, which they both really need. Sort of like, "Yeah, we're both sinners who would be burning in hell, LET'S PAINT THIS WALL WITH RAINBOWS"

Basically they're simultaneously really alike and really different and balance each other quite perfectly. The whole thing is an accident but it's sort of a beautiful hilarious accident.


SO I MENTIONED TO NISHI ONCE I have this fantasy sequence of you apping villain!Messenger. HOW WOULD THAT GO.
