Title: 2018-07-21 [DMFA #1854] (Partial) Empathic One-on-One

I Guess we all knew this was where this was leading.

The question now (assuming Dan takes Fa'Lina's advice) is whether Dan actually gets some kind of opportunity to let Regina know his feelings have changed. I suppose Regina might even be thinking on the same lines given her latest examination of her emotions. Maybe some kind of resolution will happen anyway.

Forgiveness for selfish reasons I guess, or at least not entirely selfless.

While this is a good example of the headmistresses compassion, she, like most other characters aren't without a dark side, in her case its here willingness to kill merlitz for no good reason (stopped by Arry dating him at the time), her knocking Dan out and dragging him away against his will and her support or at least lack of resistance against adventurer slaying classes in her school. But then no characters in DMFA are exact pure good are they? That's one of the things that makes them interesting.

Gosh, I return from adult life only to a kick to my feelings. Honestly, I think Fa'lina is a lot stronger than Hizel for being able to move on. Like, yikes, that is a lot to forgive!

Considering how Merlitz was acting it was hardly 'for no good reason', particularly when you consider Fa'lina has nigh-omniscient knowledge of the past actions and possible future actions of anyone that's in her academy up to a month after they've left.  WE don't know what all she saw in reading his life but just from what we do see she had no reason to like him.  So that's not her having a dark side.
