it's not lost on us that we are not fully recovered yet, but (tragically, very tragically) all the “good” hikari_no_yume blogposts in recent years were under the incredibly regrettable influence of mania, and this is in a sense the best manicpost we've ever written, so…

that is itself hubris

it keeps going

we've been thinking we want to re-read SubaHibi DtRH1 for a week (not the same thing as DtRH2, which we just re-read the first “day” of before napping). we now… really need some calming, distracting activity. so… let's re-read SubaHibi DtRH1!

impromptu SubaHibi DtRH2 chapter opening re-read incoming for the obvious reason

we're going to put Minakami Yuki as our banner again sometime later, if you've read SubaHibi i hope you understand why; it's no longer a delusion, it's no longer magical, it's a necessary, rational belief and to some extent willed choice, but we're definitely not Literally her
