This is THE shipping dynamic and you can’t change my mind
As the only member of your hero team who isn’t immortal, everyone else is having a hard time understanding why you think work conditions are bad.

Summary: Dulce is a Hero. The people who made her one better hope they never see her again. TW: mentions of violence, ptsd, panic attacks
————.
She is a villain when the adventure is over. It creeps up on her slowly. The shortened temper, the unnatural laughter, the darting eyes. She looks up at the corners of rooms for demon bats that don’t exist in this world and claws at her own flesh when she doesn’t find them.
Her companions come find her six months afterwards.
What does it look like, a prince and a knight and a mage walking into a McDonald’s? It’s 1 am, closing time, when she finds out.
“Dulce!” Prince Amor clanks through the fronts doors. He’s wearing the Royal Armor, the set that seems to glow from within with the Holy Light of his Blessed Ancestors. The crown on his head is as gold as his eyes. Everything about him looks fake under the artificial dining room lights, but he doesn’t notice. His golden eyes are locked on her. “At last, we’ve found you!”
She’s covered in a fine mist of oil, slashes of burns from the heat lamps marching up her arms. Her black pants are grey under a dusting of spilled flour and she knows her short, brown hair is frizzed up after her eight hour shift. She blinks at the three walking into the dining room and can’t find the words.
“I told you I’d find her,” Mage Kira says proudly. Her black dress looks like it belongs in a gothic version of the Nutcracker. She waves her flowering wand over her head. “Dulce’s magic has always been so distinctive, I knew it would be easy to find her in the Mundane World!”
Mundane world, Dulce thinks. That’s what they think of Earth. Mundane. Run-of-the-mill.
Not special.
Not worthy.
Dulce’s stomach cramps so badly that she sways on the spot. Why did she send the other girl home? Things would be so much easier if she had another human here.

I like how the twist in Slay the Princess isn't that the princess is some kind of ever shifting reality bending eldritch horror. That much was obvious to everyone and their mother even before the game came out. so the game doesn't even try to play its cards close to its chest.
the twist that the game slowly builds to is that you are also an ever shifting reality bending eldritch horror. That all of of your presumed limits are self imposed, and have been the entire time.
The princess changes and becomes as powerful as you believe her to be, but the same thing is true for you as well. the game is about the princess finding the pieces of herself, to learn who she is. meanwhile you are slowly learning WHAT you are, and once both of you fully know who and what you are you become fully fledged gods
You only die because you believe the narrator when he says you do, and as soon as you decide to not be dead, you suddenly cannot die because you've stopped believing in that limit.
You can only starve if you believe you need to eat.
As soon as you decide to stop playing around with the razor you summon the long quiet and easily trounce her.
As soon as you have the thought that the narrator isnt as strong as he pretends to be. that maybe he doesnt have final say in things. he loses any and all ability to control you or the construct.
Honestly I feel like Charlie is the type of person who genuinally checks herself and her temper because if she ever had a moment where she loosed her shit, it would probably be the scariest thing ever. You know those type of people who are one of the most sweetest and kindest people you know, and the idea of seeing them angry just never crosses your mind? And then when you actually see them upset, and I mean genuinely will rip your head off in a second, it's the most terrifying thing you could ever imagine because you would never imagine someone so gentle being capable of this level of anger and fury.
If you think about it the imodna slow burn is actually the funniest thing because every second of it is like
Laudna: Imogen I would tear my unbeating heart from my chest and wrap it in my very skin and give it to you if I thought you might want it
Imogen: oh that’s sweet :)
The rest of the Hells: …????
Imogen: time to go stare silently into space with tears pricking at my eyes for 19 minutes because I know she means it platonically and it’s awful for me to want anything else 😔💔
The rest of the Hells: …???¿?????¿?!!!!?????

sokka’s fucking boomerang. sokka threw a fucking boomerang at princess azula, renowned lightning bender and heir-apparent to the throne of the fire nation.
and sokka threw a boomerang at her.
"I'm fun scary!"
"Laudna, you're scary scary"
I have this little headcanon that when Laudna casts shroud of shadow there's also a phantasmal red rope...
Yeah, dark, I know, but it's my headcanon...
