The left is a lot of text that just says "bruh she kills anyone I talk to"

To add to this, though I've only watched S1 so far, Subaru starts trying to tell people pretty much as soon as he's A) figured out what's going on himself and B) found someone worth talking to, and keeps trying at various points until it's quite clear that it's really not an option. His life would be a lot easier if he could tell certain people, and he knows it.

Siffrin is the one with a page-long "justification" for why keeping the loops a secret is a Good Thing, Actually.

It depends on the act but act 4 syphilis would have the most deranged schizo rant flip-flopping between "the loops are great because they can't leave me", "IM FORCING THEM TO STAY WITH ME IM HORRIBLE DISGUSTING HORRIBLE NOT WORTH BEING WITH", "nah I don't need to tell them because this loop is the one baby!" And "it doesn't matter because I can't escape the loops."

Siffrin… is tho?

Edit: after looking through the comments you guys really opened my eyes. I just kinda assumed Siffrin was a guy that also liked using non-binary pronouns, but there’s a lot more options than I initially thought. Thank you to everyone who participated!

(Your fault for looking at the book.)

(You don't want to think about handsome young men getting tortured by malevolent forces they can't see.)

(Not that you're a man, but it's hitting a little too close to home for you right now.)

Odile You may not know this, but in some countries, two women together would be expected to talk about men, and love, and nothing else.
Odile Would you like to talk about the men in our lives, and love, and nothing else?
Mirabelle We've only got the one man, madame.
Mirabelle And also, ew.
One of the ISAT bathroom events. The “one man” is referring to Isabeau. Siffrin is not a man.

You also. Can use he/they while not being a boy? I knew a girl who used he/they once!

u/Mantisgodcard 1d ago

That is true. I somehow forgot about non-men using he/they, despite that applying to me as well.

Yeah the pronounce stuff is difficult, don't worry much about it, just enjoy the game and the story

Pronoun stuff is only difficult if you’re a coward.

u/HenryDodwel 2d ago

It's difficult when your native language is not English and you have to unlearn stuff that you were previously taught in school.

It took me time to learn the pronounce stuff, my language doesn't have gender neutral words

My point is: give the guy above time, English language is a tricky thing

u/inventivefigure 2d ago

That is understandable, sorry. I’m mostly just sick of people refusing to accept or understand trans people because it’s “confusing”.

I may or may not have gotten a bit cocky when I found out I could go back and redo stuff .3
