"A part of me wants to finish this tonight, the other more reasonable part wants me to finish this tomorrow after my exam. It's also 12AM as of speaking, the entire experience was in one word, fascinating. Absolutely immersive and engaging as well as critical and nuanced, layered with an eerie, distinct and disturbing seal about it." — Jan 14, 2026 09:47AM

"Lapvona comments on so many things critically and puts you in a place of prolonging contemplation and wrestling your mind to comprehend the intensity of each conveyed meanings.

And, to what extend does this faith tamper with one's own perception of reality." — Nov 23, 2025 07:53AM

“(And when you've been hurt once, you're afraid to try again later, in dread of enduring the same pain. You avoid getting hurt in an attempt to avoid suffering: for years, this principle will serve as my holy sacrament. So many lost years.)”

“Why me?
He says: Because you are not like all the others, because I don't see anyone but you and you don't even realize it.
He adds this phrase, which for me is unforgettable: Because you will leave and we will stay.”
