i love youuuu so much demsin. you are my life and soul. seeing demian develop sinclair is so so yummy, i think she deserves to grow while also having someone to depend on
esp in the context of transitioning i love the idea of demian being a catalyst for sinclairs self discovery in ideology and identity which includes gender.
i feel like every other jungian believer would snipe me cause "oh youre misintepreting hesses take of anima and animus! sinclair is not transgender" DIE DIE DIE. i feel the way hesse writes sinclair attitude toward beatrice, demian, and frau eva feels like gender envy in a way that no cisgender people would experience.
hesse is also not a stranger to queer concepts and i dont think he would kill anyone would for reading it that way as long as you can acknowledge the original concept of anima and animus he pulled from
sorry ill stfu, or might just move this into a sub category cause this is more a rant about trans sinclair than demsin lmao, but i do feel demsin are very intertwined in trans fluidity.
im a devote tfem sinclair truther
stop ik im a loser. i love hermann hesse sm his writing style is so appealing to me that scratches a spot in my brain.
i initially liked limbus sinclair cause i thought she was cute, then decided to read demian cause i wanted to know more about her and oh my god best decision of my life. at first i appreciated demian as a novel that could create a character that i could relate to, obviously good since its a coming of age story meant to reach those suffering the same way as hesse — but after getting into his ideology oh my god i became so so so intruiged. i love the way that hesse uses his literature to illustrate his philsopical views to better allow people with the same complicated social dillemna to understand! it is such a cute love letter to his beliefs, and specifically post demian(1919,) a thank you to carl jung after becoming his apprentice.
im a firm believer of individualism, maybe not so much of an existentialist, but i still love how hesse portrays it
ive only read hesses work post jung: demian, siddhartha, and steppenwolf.
but i plan to read narcissus und golmund then glass bead game once i get the time! after i've read all post jung ill read beneath the wheel, and more of his novels before then.
aa i really want the physical novel of hermann hesses letters to thomas man also... i want to know about how hesse functions outside of his literature. then at some point ill read beyond good and evil
bucket list unrelated to novels: I want to go to the hermann hesse statue in calw germany =v= i want to also go to the hermann hesse musuem in switzerland, i NEEED to see his house waaaaa >n< need to also go the sanatorium he stayed at since its a hotel modern day (ithink) lastly when i get super rich i want one of his paintings :heart:
if you couldnt tell i much prefer novel demsin. take this however you want, but if you consume demian as a fanwork to limbus sinclair and not a independent philosophical novel i dont like you. i love limbus sinclair, i love novel sinclair, but if youre not going to acknowledge the novel for its intended purpose then go away.
complete change of gears. i want to eat them, theyre antidepressants to me while also making me sad at the same time.
i like them the same way every other annoying rksa fan likes them, their dynamic is so precious to me and i love how comfortable they are with eachother to match eachothers freak. they are so soft and fluffy n its so fun to sprinkle in some unrequited love where one falls first, and the other falls even harder. i can see the concept with either of them, i just want to see some conflict thats not incredibly heavy.
im such a fake fan i havent played the natlan quest and dont plan to play it until durin comes out... ive only seen cutscenes of them together and done the fontaine amusement park event and breezy resort with them =-=
my intepretation of ifaron relys solely on fanfiction, and i dont care if that makes me fake, im happy eating good :3c their bromance is so precious to me and i find it funny to think of them getting married and they still act like bros =u= theyre kind of like how ruikasa is to me where i consume alot of fluff with them. but i do like seeing seeing the miscommunication trope between them and either of them being oblivious to their feelings. even though i dont much about ororon and ifas involvement in the main story, i do know they have a lot of potential angst with ororons whole sacrifice arc thing, n i do enjoy seeing peoples post canon intepretation of it
gerita or itager, idc i think theyre cute together. i love all the dynamics and duos between characters, but these two are the only ones i would actually pair romantically. need to seem them married and domestic... im such a sucker for serious uptight characters and their pathetic loser partner, and they share 2 braincells together.
the siblings ever. i need to squish them both =w= i love how they look like mirrors of eachother but act completely different.
