i think bill's human form would be really uncanny. he can copy a human really really well but it's obvious that he isn't one- it's just a replica. almost like those uncanny valley people or incredibly realistic wax figures. there'll be always something off with his expressions and the way he acts. too human-like to a point where it looks inhuman.
the reveal that mizu is not only the ronin but also the bride is so well executed. the way she walks the line between man and woman, white and japanese, victor and victim... it's good fucking writing.
how to un-burnt an egg
when i was a kid i always fantasized about grabbing romeo on the shoulders and asking him do you mean it? do you really feel it? is it sincere? is it? are you an act? are you feeling?

experiencing a sorrow that is so personal is incredibly ugly. pain felt selfless is kind of poetic in a way but when you take it deep- when it becomes too personal, too painful only on your own behalf it becomes so ugly that it erases everything. you turn into an old pile of grief. they way you look- the thoughts. they will flood your brain and you'll scrunch your face in disgust, now you became entirely what you have been feeling. that is who you are right now; broken glass shards shoved under your bed, a sink full of dishes with flies flying on it, the never happening possibility of becoming someone- something. all the figs on that tree is rotten. this is incredibly ugly.
