“Why is it that a weaker person has to attach themselves to someone stronger?”

I’m not talking about the deferrence that comes from a Dom/ sup relationship, I’m talking about the … fuck-stupid and godawful parasites you see shmoozing up to anything that seems remotely stronger than them. You see them here and there, fundamentally broken people who don’t understand the concept of independent action and the value of self-worth.

I recently found myself in a debate with one of these people about the nature of their issue. What follows is portions of the debate that i had with them.

I installed and started playing Yume Miru Kusuri again, but not because of Aeka’s route. Admittedly, I love Aeka’s route, she’s so wistful and filled with a certain sadness. Refer back to my statement months ago that if i met this sort of girl in real life I wouldn’t give her the time of day; however in reading and experiencing her story, I can’t help but feel moved to be all big and strong and protective. She’s a sweet girl, albeit not terribly bright.

You know, that brings me to a point I’d like to make. Back in the day, I was raised by my mother country to believe that all men and women were created equal. When I went out in pursuit of a mate, I originally had the expectation that I would find someone that is equal to me. lo and behold, that’s not the case at all. Setting aside my chauvanistic perspectives, I found that there was no actual equality, because the staggering differences between the two genders make equality impossible. men and women are wired differently. There is no equal value- Dammit, I lost the original point. Tangents. Bah.

Getting back to it, i ran through Mizuki and Nekoko’s routes looking for a particular scene I couldn’t place, and ended up falling a little for Nekoko. She reminds me a bit like Aeka; both have their own escape mechanisms, Nekoko’s just happens to be a bit… bizarre. Mizuki I can’t deal with; I just can’t get to like her at all. Nevermind the fact that her hoohas are the size of water barrels, her personality is about as flat as your adorable imouto’s chest. There are a couple of times during the end that you feel for her, but by and large I can’t stand her. I did like the flight, and the balcony scene and her actual ending. the rest is crap. Aeka, though. Oh man. She’s such a sweetheart, and she invokes a similar response that Yumemi Hoshino invoked when I ran through Planetarian. (In before CLANG CLANG CLANG and “The Junker lived!” “Bullshit!”)

This rumination all reminds me I need to play through Ever17. Never got around to it, dammit.
