I'm with you on this! I'll join your religious crusade!

Don't worry, I agree most of your points here as its indeed valid. But there's also a reason why this particular seen bore a reflection in life, as crazy and silly idea may be. Also, I'm glad there are people like you who are liberal enough to think that YOLO and only you could please yourself if not everyone else around you. But on the other side of that, it definitely sucks to hear that there's still something like this still continue to exist this day. Not that I could blame her with the society she grew up with. Any fear is scary itself. There are other places that condone cannibalism or murder, but definitely not my place to say (or rally human rights) as its their way of living and they grew up with. Do I agree? no. I think the conflict and the motivation the character have, so far, is about seeking the validation and the need for affection. Honestly, I got to research and knew this from a friend of mine, and it sucks. (had to tweak a little to have disclaimers.) Sometimes, even what people think you got it all, is never enough. Even for the way of thinking, I think sometimes when you get into your head, and the inner saboteur kicks in to do the thing what dreaded you the most wouldn't make the situation any better and then cope up with different defense mechanisms that only result negatively.

Funny enough, this is a struggle that I saw secondhand; things are just easier said than done and for the person to experience. I think being molded to a criteria of what family approves (most esp in the traditional asian countries) have this notion.

I think as far as this chapter is concerned, Nathalie needed to depend on Keith for myriad reasons: one of them is the so-called curse. I do think it's been mentioned the previous chapters the deep sense of admiration—how does one be able to get to know one of your idols, and to have special, deep connection at that? I suppose to each their own. Who can tell? Perhaps only the story could tell as it progresses.

And I oop—But of course!

I can't say much about that. XD XD XD
