Am I making this up?! I think not.
And really…it might not even be irrational at all. It might be obvious and intended. See, the writers only want me to think I am crazy. But they are really promoting this pairing. I am only bringing the truth to light!
....As Labrador's vines go all The Ruins on us....
Instead of talking about Frau’s situation Castor breaks out into a story about Fia Kruez. The gist of the story is that Fia stole Pandora’s Box which had Verloren’s body in it and he brought it back to the Ragg Kingdom. No one knows why the Ragg Kingdom was really attacked but Castor thinks that this was the reason. Teito is all like NOOOOOO Fia was good and saved me and must have had a good reason. Teito is more determined to become a bishop and find out the truth for himself. Labrador and his freak vines of doom inform the group that Frau is going to receive the death penalty. It is a very MOG moment despite the fact that Frau is already dead. Teito is all like IT IS TIME TO SAVE FRAU. Elsewhere in church the head bishop dude is talking to the nosy bishop dude. They say a lot of crap but the head bishop dude confirms that Frau is not the one who did the crimes as he has been “tainted” and can no longer hold the Kor’s killing staff. A traitor is in their midst!!!
Teito goes to find the dungeon where Frau is in but the three same nuns we see every week have no idea what he is talking about. Razette the mute mermaid appears and takes him to the underwater dungeon where Frau is (leaving poor sad Mikage behind and nearly killing Teito in the process). Teito tries to blow up the cell but Frau tells him to stop. Frau does not want to run away and look guilty. He tells Teito to worry about his own problems which makes Teito all sad and slightly pissed off. But it comes off more angst given the water bubbles they have to communicate with. Teito wants to break Frau out but Frau insist he go, giving him a blessing with a bible verse. Teito starts to leave when Frau signals him to come back. Frau says that he would feel better if Teito smiled. Teito freaks out and swims away. Teito has a flashback to when Mikage tried telling him the same thing about smiling and how it can make a situation better. Teito turns around…and smiles at Frau. Frau nearly dies of shock and Teito is permanently red. Teito returns to the surface and Hakuren is waiting with baby Mikage. He says he knows Teito wants to find out who framed Frau and he will help Teito out. They return to the scene of the crime and THE END!
You are making it too easy!
….Was this episode made for me? Is it really Christmas in July? Or maybe it’s my birthday?! Whatever the reason may be this episode was beyond good in my eyes. I am sure the only way to improve this episode would be to have Frau and Teito kiss which is probably never happening. They can’t actually SHOW the pairings, just greatly imply them.
Painful separation! The story tells itself!
Now why do I believe all of this is actual yaoiness instead of Teito caring about his friend? Because Teito likes to go around screaming that he hate Frau and Frau is a lecherous punk. And maybe he is going to such extremes to help Frau because he somehow thinks this is his fault. But he really doesn’t have any evidence (yet) that this is his fault and Frau took the fall. Teito just assumes anything greater than a paper cut at the church of good looking men is his fault. And Teito had an excellent reason to go see Frau. See that collar around Teito’s neck? The one that has a little rule if Frau and Teito don’t have contact after 48 hours there is a big KA-BOOM? Yeah that is an important reason to go see Frau.
Okay, maybe a little mad...
But nope, Teito didn’t mention that fact at all. And Teito really didn’t dwell on the fact that all of this is his fault (which was surprising). No Teito just wanted to break Frau out of jail and help him proclaim his innocence. And every single minute of it was AWWWWWWWWWW!
Almost too much to handle!
Seriously people, I expect to see some decent fan fictions now about this episode. Teito and Frau not being able to talk to each other. Frau trying to be the older and calmer one even though he is dead man walking (already dead man walking actually). Teito practically crying because Frau won’t run away with him. And did you see the press up against the glass scene?! This blogger nearly died from all the blatant yaoiness.
Teito's youth makes me feel dirty....
But putting aside how hot I found everything and how many bad thoughts I had running around in my head I thought everything was really sweet. Teito wasn’t screaming at Frau calling him a pervert and Frau was taunting Teito and calling him a little kid. Teito genuinely cares for Frau and can’t bear to see him suffering. The fact that they couldn’t really talk face to face made the moment that more sweet/bitter sweet. And I love how both of them made good points and acknowledged that the other wasn’t totally wrong or insane.
WTF is that animal? I MUST HAVE!
I love how Teito had a memory of Mikage and it didn’t result in tears and a trip to emo fountain. It was very nice to see Teito think of Mikage and how Mikage helped him be a better person and it not involve some bullies or a speech about how they are best friends forever. It was something that applied to the situation at hand and really shows that Teito is not making up how close he and Mikage were. At times it has felt forced and had me going….they were close after just a year? But then little scenes like this pop up and I feel bad for doubting Teito!
The smile (if you can call it that...)
And the reaction (forget the smirk afterwards!)
I think when Frau was telling Teito to smile he really wasn’t expecting a smile. He was just saying that in an attempt to calm Teito down. Or upset him and go away. Or frustrate Teito and make him go away. He wasn’t expecting Teito to turn around and give him (the world’s scariest) smile. Frau almost died from shock when he saw that beautiful smile and ruined his apple. I am not sure if he was touched that Teito actually did what he asked or that Teito thought smiling would make Frau better so he did it. Whatever the case may be it was a powerful moment and I was eating it up like candy. Frau better have wanted to break out and give Teito a hug after that or else!
Too cute for words!
There were other things that happened in this episode besides yaoi moments that make me go insane. Like how sad cute baby Mikage was about being left out. :(
Because the timing is perfect..?
Okay there was other stuff TOO! I am not really sure what was up with Castor telling Teito that story about Fia Kruez. Granted it was stuff that Teito needed to know I am not sure how it applied to the situation at hand. The situation being Frau being in prison. Now maybe down the line these situations will connect and this will all make sense. But for now it was like “Oh Teito here is some bad news. Let me tell you some more bad news so your entire day can be wrecked.”
Really Castor, really?!
I think the information could have been handled differently and not just thrown at the viewers. But it wasn’t and it is out there. And it was surprising. I am sure that Fia Kruez has a good reason for stealing Verloren. That reason might be revealed during season two in the very last episode but it will be revealed. The point is after Castor’s long story is that no one knew what was going on in Fia Kruez’s mind and that the Ragg kingdom got set up to explode.
Not getting a bad guy vibe from him. But I have been wrong before...
Not that I am buying that Fia Kruez had any bad intent behind this stealing of Verloren thing. Maybe he found out that Ayanami existed for the sole purpose of bringing back Verloren and he was just trying to prevent that. And maybe Ayanami blackmailed Fia Kruez into doing all this. The point is that Castor’s maybes and what nots were BLEH. He knows that Fia Kruez is set up. Man up and say it next time.
Quit trying to confuse me on what Frau is!
Another bit of information was with head ugly bishop and sorta nosy bishop about Frau. Nosy bishop thinks something is up with Frau. It is nice to know that some people can ask obvious questions and think that the situation is really messed up. But the way the old bishop was talking made me go X_X As if there was a way of fixing Frau? Um he is a Ghost. I am not sure how he could possibly be saved. But that is just me asking obvious questions and thinking something is up. Crazy talk I tell you.
Let's go get in more trouble! WOOT!
Hakuren was super nice. He was acting like he wasn’t worried about Teito but he really was. See, he tried to cover it up by saying they were partners and he had to look after him. That is what Teito should have done earlier. But Hakuren thinks he can help Teito find evidence to clear Frau’s name and that is nice. I am sure it will end with a battle but it is nice. We will see how lovely it all turns out next week. Until then…TeitoxFrau. XD
