dont get me wrong i love alphinaud very much. halley is just also the character i made for the express purpose of Not Being The Responsible Adult when he beefs it with the crystal braves

watching all the cute fluffy wolphinaud poses go by a bit ago makes me laugh because i know for a fact alphinaud is the one character that stresses halley the fuck out most. stupid control freak boyprince vs. extremely passive autistic boy(?) how long will it take for halley to explode

i have been playing so much repo. possibly too much repo

also. halley's face tweaks to make her Actually look like a babyfaced 15 year old. my bapy.

"ignore the fact that i was just telling minfillia i fucked up bad you'll do great here. by the way ☝️ we killed those people. good luck out there champ"

also forgot about tataru calling the grand companies. actual nightmare scenario

halley - rapidly oscilating between total alienation and I Am Going To Explode Into A Horrible Monster Someday in about the way one would expect from an unwell closeted teenager (she gets better about it later). sorry for basing you off of cult classic puberty horror series Alien 9, girl. 2/2

reconciling that he isn't broken or the only one not let in on the joke of how the extreme cruelty is normal and that the world is just Like That and still caring about it and striving for better is absolutely informed by the fact that he's autistic. how could it not be, he's me. 4/4

striking out on his own to build his skills as a gladiator in the lancer's guild was a culture shock in that she had built a very strong black and white moral compass around gladiator face/heel dynamics and everyone there was Incredibly Frustratingly Evil or Complex In Ways He Doesn't Get. 3/4
