dainnnnn. waves hand. i think theres a lot they could do tbh. d&d opens up a lot of possibilities for him considering the whole "freeing yourself" thing. before d&d i thought they were gonna lock in on the "i want to make everyone shine in a way that only i can" stuff from shunmeiza (also i'll bring out your strength stamp moment) but im really glad they moved to rui making idk. himself shine first. hard to phrase. point is you can't work on others until you work on yourself. i think its kinda hard to pinpoint anything rn bc we don't know where wondasho are going after arcland/training stuff ends but i think it would be nice to see more on what it means to make things for yourself instead of primarily for an audience. (which weirdly ties back to wl2 too. with it opening on the "more...more..something that will make the audience stare...something that will make the audience smile"). lyss unsuprisingly wants more rui being selfish moments. d&d sorta satisfied my main wants of both rui being challenged in a way that requires him to reevaluate everything, and also being an event where he opens himself up more to others emotionally lol

. this is annoying i had a really good idea of where to go after this following d&d release but i've forgotten it now. sorry this was kind of just word slop. maybe ill dm you something better later if it comes to me LMAO
