it's pure misogyny. that's all this writing is. the utter infantilization of conflicts and tension, the constant hehe we are gossiping hehe, and the constant need for the women to appear palatable and sweet. it is misogyny. which doesn't matter, hoyotwt and tt eat this shit up.
Hoyo blatantly only allows these female characters to only bond with other women, but to do it to the female fatui and tsaritsa, who are supposedly morally grey, while trashing the male harbingers is so embarassing💀 if it's truly a 'girl's thing', why the hell is aether there?
