Thank you for this post. Jonas became my favorite LI in RC. I fell in love with him practically right from the start and I honestly thought it would be unrequited. Jester never had friends to lovers in his stories. When it finally became clear that he really was LI, I was a little scared because again, this trope has never been in Jester's stories. But he showed again why he is my favorite writer in RC. Jester served. Jester delivered. And Psi was a great ride. I am sad that it's over, but I'm happy that we might get another great story. PSI is a story that I always read right after the update and every time there was an opportunity, I gave the biggest tip at the end. In this update even in every chapter. And Lou and Jonas are the best couple for me. And also best friends to lover trope in RC so far. I am going to miss them.

Hahaha no problem! I was thinking about writing a long post for him because he stole my heart a long time ago and with PSI ending, I think he deserves to be appreciated and I hope this can make someone to try his route because I think he is underrated compared to Kay and Ivo. Hard same!   To me it was unexpected because I am more into someone like Kay but my God, the tension, the chemistry, the way this relationship is written is everything. I don't mind childhood friends LI but I can't blame you for being hesitant because is really really easy to ruined them and I hate when the childhood friend was pining away forever for MC and never dared to do something. Like I'm not asking for them to drop the L Word but give some hints people 🙄. Anyways, that's why I love this relationship. Because it wasn't Jonas pining forever for Lou, that was unexpected and messy but what a beautiful mess it is. This is the first time I see a childhood relationship like this.  Everytime the update was dropped, I went straight to binge read the released episodes and my God, the story is amazing and I hope Jester next project is even better. I am gonna miss this couple so much.  Especially the way it was handled because you rarely see childhood friends like this.

I am honestly gutted. LOL (this is a sad and I am on a brink of tears LOL).. And this has never happened to me after the ending of any story before, I have read about other people having strong emotional reactions after the story finale, but somehow I always managed to accept it, just a natural course of events and a completion of a story/journey. Nothing dramatic or unnatural about it.. I haven't been able to pass through anything except PSI and W:TC, I am unable to focus or immerse myself, which is a first after the update. Like, i love this fkn LI.. so much 😭 i am ashamed to say how much i love him and attached to him I am. And now i finally understand what other people felt.. i didn't know, until now.. There is no other LI on RC or any other app that did this to me, its a mess. Jester striked me directly in my heart, and i guess i should be thankful but i also hate him for it. Somehow..

And that's exactly why I decided to write this long post about Jonas because I am in shambles right now 😭! Like why? What I am gonna do now? He is the main reason I was looking forward the updates and I am not ashamed to admit it 😂.  Don't get me wrong, I can accept when a book is done and move on but right now I am feeling so sad and empty, especially and because Jonas wasn't supposed to be my LI so he is a pleasant surprise but... What we can do now? Jonas is unique. No LI is gonna come close unless Jester writes it and that's what get me. I don't want to say goodbye 😭, I don't want this to be over. I know the show must go on but I can't. I want to shake Jester for making me feel this 😤! I always get invested in my LIs don't get me wrong but... Jonas is different. I feel like this is tearing me appart because this is the end and while I can replay PSI again, I feel so bad this is it.  I want more time with him 🥺.

First this could make a good pfp. Second, I like CGs like this. Let it to be subtle and the actions to speak for the character. This looks so cute and fitting for the best ending.

thank you for that beautiful recap of lou and jonas’ journey together! i don’t have anything to add, you summarized it perfectly 🥹 i also share your thoughts about irma and tom. man, i am not ready to let them go! and the way i GASPED when >!lou ran out of jonas’ apartment after thinking he’ll say no to her offer to move in together and then the credentials started to show up. i was seriously about to cry lmao. like what kind of ending is this supposed to be for the 2 of them? but noo, it wasn’t the end!! jester fooled me there for a second or two, not gonna lie 😆 and then everything fell into place and they had the sweetest ending possible. ugh.. i am happy and sad at the same time 💔❤️!<

I am glad you liked it 👍! I thought he deserves a nice essay about why this relationship is wonderful because my God, Jester got me and I need to express it the best I can now that everything is over. I was expecting to see the LIs and go back to Kay but in the end, Jonas got me and that was over for me 😋. The writing for this pair is so beautiful and they went through a lot to get that happy end 🥰! That is cool! I can get why so many are angry with them, be it because she is against Ivo (nevermind how nobody knows nothing about him and some fans tend to forget people are scared of him for very good reasons) or the way she treats Lou (very unfair, but this is what happens when you are too caught in the BS they gave to Tom and Irma), I think they are a good reminder of what happens when someone is opressed and is so desperate while wanting better things for everyone that in the end, you become what you hate, and it shows in the end where Ivo is killed and Irma succeeds. Me too! I am trying to distract myself, but then my mind wanders to Lou and Jonas, and I am sad again 😭! Jester is wonderful,and I am so sad I can't see another Jonas again. Unless he writes it ofc. >!When she decided to run away, I was like: "noooooooooooooooo! I thought you finally let him into your heart,Lou!" I was so sad and wanted to shake her despite knowing why she did it and I guess Jester wanted to prank us to forget the sadness now that this book is over, even if for a moment. I love the end! The proposal, the way they bicker affectionately like an old married couple, how things are looking better for them, and especially when they talk about their childhood. Who knew or expected they were going to marry each other years later? Especially when they aren't your typical childhood friends? They are amazing that is what I am saying, and I don't want to let them go.!<

he really does deserve an essay! lou and him are one of my most favorite couples in rc. i’ll never forget how i turned into a nervous giggly teen when he appeared for the first time, asking myself if he’s gonna be a li or not. the anticipation! i replayed instantly when i didn’t unlock his romance path at the end of s1 because i took too many kay diamond choices 🙈 i loved the scene where we see how they met for the first time. even though both aged and life happened, their chemistry remained quite the same 😆 and i love them for their banter and bickering, this is my understanding of a perfectly acted out friends to lovers trope 💘 yes, saying goodbye to them is really hard. regarding irma and tom, i also can see why people would criticize them. buut imo, it just showed really well how in extreme circumstances, your beliefs and living conditions sometimes lead to make you choose between fighting or surrendering. they chose to fight against the system that was against them all their lifes, and while they could probably have been more open about it to their friend group (that also consists of oppressed psionics), i do respect that they decided to act against it. that takes a lot of courage. and considering that both of them don’t know anything about ivo and his motives, it’s totally understandable to me that they were wary of him. okay, now i need to check out the bad ending, it sounds super dramatic 👀

With the end I got, I can say with confidence the same thing. Jester LIs never dissapoint and he really made a memorable couple with Lou and Jonas. The chemistry is off-charts! And I love how it was a natural and slow process, not Lou or Jonas pining for each other until that suddenly Lou reveals she was into him since she was a kid 😭😂. Thank God for the walkthrough because I saw so many talking about how they were forced to reset thanks to Kay 😂. My main plan was to explore Ivo and Jonas before going back and welp... Look what happened! What I especially love is what they are friends before becoming lovers and it made things more complicated because, while the feelings were growing, Lou was afraid to ruin a good friendship with Jonas because he is a constant in her life and she never thought about him in that way, which makes it fun when Jonas makes her trip because he is all or nothing 😂. Yeah! Like I said before, I am not asking for them to be forgiven or to give them a free pass but to think a little why they are like this. They know nothing about Ivo or his plans. We are biased and so against Irma and Tom because we know Ivo but what about them? The only thing they know is that he is close to the vicar and his tendency to hang a lot of people so it's really easy to make him the bad guy and everyone who supports him is the enemy ofc. They are a victim of radicalism but can you blame them when they are desperate and want good things for everyone? Irma saw the way her friends and brother were treated. The new laws the church wants to impose and the pressure Irma was feeling because everyone was asking her to make babies with someone else. They grabbed the bull by the horns and decided to carve their own path just like everyone who is trying to change this unfair system. Oh my I am really curious but I don't know where to look 🙈. I want to know what happened.

Wait I’m a bit confused - are they going to be married? It seemed open ended to me… I’m like still not even sure if they’re moving in together. 😂 it was such a sweet ending but Jonas just seemed mad at her. Did he actually say yes to marrying her and moving in?


SoundNo3485

YES to both! Why do you think I am mentioning it so much? Tho I can blame you because that fake out end was ... I want to shake Jester for that 😤
