YESSS YOU GET ITTT... ugh i rly need to get this project ive been cooking for ages off the ground, bc this disconnect and the reset of their relationship is just so absolutely fsscinating
wow. reading this thread... it's so interesting to me bc it really links in well with kazuma's deep sense of shame at the end. because he knows he's become unrecognizable to anyone who would've known him-- but at the same time, that's also who he was the whole time, behind a veil
it's something i felt as a player myself going through the game, feeling so angry and frustrated because kazuma isn't the character i thought he would be and i didn't like who he was by the end. but that's also along the same lines that ryuu himself must be feeling at that point
although i do focus more on barok & ryuunosuke, i think it's for this reason that i can't help but touch on kazuma in my own writing -- i find him fascinating in how alone he was despite seeming so friendly/confident, and how i feel there is a lot barok & kazuma could find in common w/each other
YEAH i love writing him becoming friends with barok... bc like you said they have so much in common i feel like they could really understand each other
it's so interesting too imagining it bc i see both of them each going "well i bet he hates my guts now" and yet finding themselves drawn to relating to each other regardless
