Agreed.
Like yeah , yes still emotionally repressed , why do people believe he just suddenly gonna do something he sworn off doing in the first place
sxf fandom I love you all but y'all be wilding if you expect an emotionally repressed man with daddy issues and a stress ulcer to be all in his feels because he just helped his daughter get saved like pls just let this man make her hamburger steaks in peace
even im surprised
Thank you for the theory
We can see she has some flowers on display, both in her bedroom window and by the front entrance. That in and of itself isn't unusual, but the one by the window stuck out to me.
Unlike the full bouquet at the entrance, the window flowers are barely a handful. They're also placed in a plain cup rather than a proper vase, making it feel much less like an intentional setup and more like something that was put there at random. Why go through the effort - especially in her sleeping area where no one else is likely to see it?
Twilight noted in this chapter that Nightfall must be recovering from the mole incident, and run ragged from resuming regular spy duties. We know she's been visiting Franky for work purposes between then and now - seemingly pretty often too, if his deflated 'you again' response to her presence is anything to go by.
Franky is also known to have flowers handy for all kinds of occasions. Silly pranks, failed dates...
He may even be aware that Fiona is sick - he is an information broker after all. And so...
Maybe kind of sourly though, because he just got shot down for the nth time and they're just gonna be thrown out anyways so she may as well take 'em, alright!?
And in her fever-hazed state, Nightfall accepts.
The plain cup, the odd placement - this isn't Fiona Frost adding to her interior decoration, but Nightfall sparing a lonely flower from the garbage can.
He might have had some flashbacks
Also Martha - Becky - Henderson are kinda my second favorite trio
I was scrolling my gallery and found this piece of art. I'm laughing crying
This is how it went in manga, right?
So I've been collecting songs for my spy x family playlist for a month now. And since today we don't have new chapter I will rant about some of this songs here
1. Foo Fighters - Waiting on a war
This song right here describes all spy x family setting and Twilights story. Because peace between Ostania and Westalis is shaky and nobody can actually guarantee that it will last. And while civilians may live more or less peacefully, Twilight is always waiting on the war. But he knows that there's something more than that in life and with Forgers he has chance to have it
2. Hozier - Like real people do
I just needed Hozier song, because TwiYor have very Hozier romance. "I will not ask you where you came from" - is pretty much current state of Twilight's relationships with Yor and Anya. He knows they are odd but he will not ask them in fear of finding out. And both Twilight and Yor feel more like tools than actual people, but since they started Forger family they learn more about what "real people do"
3. Tember Blanche & Moisei - Ти лиш людина
This one's in my mother tongue (Ukrainian). For me it perfectly captures the feeling of the 86 chapter.
Chorus translation:
Show me your weakness, I don't ask you anything more.
If you are only human, then how can you live without fear?
Let's just say I can't wait fo Wheeler arc to be animated, because I have a vision for a really cool amv
4. Rainbow Kitten Surprise - Cold love
This one hard to describe. It has post reveal and opening up to each other vibes. It also has first joined mission gone wrong vibes. But most of all it has we are the same and we understand each other vibes. (Maybe I'll write songfic based on this. When I learn how to write hehe)
5. Rina Sawayama - Chosen family
Just a sweet song about opening up and found/chosen family. Very Forgers)
PS: I really need good songs for Anya and Yor. Especially Yor, since most of her playlists have femme fatale vibes, that don't suite her character.
If you have any recommendations PLEASE leave them in comments
They are so dramatic, I can't
Also Martha and Hendrerson actually danced!!! Now I can live happily!!
Kinda wish there would be more Twilight and Anya in this chapter but it's okay, I believe we will get it soon
Yeah, first graders flirting game is fun. But I'm much more interested in those two having enough relationship history to be like "Oh, I forgot to thank you for your help. Mind helping again?"
Also "Isn't it just like you"... They are my brotp, I can't
If I had to choose my favorite character from spy x family it would be this guy
1. He has funny and chill uncle energy
2. He's so underrated it's painful. He doesn't even have a name or codename(
3. He clearly worked in WISE for a long time, but still is impulsive as hell
4. He asked Twilight for a fuckin drink after Wheeler ark (the most dangerous mission they all had since the beginning of Operation Strix)
(Also am I the only one who sees the uncle teasing his angsty nephew about his first crush? No one else? Alright)
His comment about marital problems makes me think he had a family at some point and understands Twilight's inner conflict
Like here he clearly was both serious and teasing about tearful reunion. He suggested it seriously, because he understands that Twilight wants it deep down (He even calls Anya his girl). But he also teases the hell outta Loid for being in denial
5. He's the only agent that isn't afraid of Handler. He's even confident enough to argue with her and scold her in front of other agents. And honestly I feel like Silvia holds a lot of respect for him despite those arguments. It would be very interesting to know their history (not like we gonna have it in canon, they are too minor characters)
6. He seems to have this relaxed kind of wisdom that balances with his impulsive reactions
Thanks for listening to my TED talk
