So people in the chan were like "TOMO WE DEMAND AN ESSAY ABOUT TOMO/SANO" and I was like "HAHAHA FOILED!!!11 TAKE THIS BITCHES!" because the sekrit is that technically I've already essayed on it! It's just all hidden in INSTALLMENTS in old relationship and essay prompt posts, both mine and other people's. >D I do relationship memes often enough that, yeeeeah. So THERE! Take that, Society! In other words--yeah here. Notanessay. Just for you. ♥
April 9th". . . I wouldn't say that Tomo consciously crushes on Sano? Like she doesn't think about it, it doesn't make her treat him differently, and, if directly asked, she might even think she was telling the truth when she denied it."
May 5th". . . So what it really comes down to is that Tomo absolutely adores Sano as a crazy sometimes-emo naughty sneaky goofy smart strong protective prankster-BFF, and she would also like to have sex with him, rather a lot!"
June 20th"SO she's still in the position of not wanting anything to change between them except lots of sex. :D Well. That and getting attention from him. And him not giving it to other girls. DAMN OTHER GIRLS."
June 22nd"So uh in the end Tomo can deal with Sano having a girlfriend as long as nothing else changes and the relationship isn't too similar to the one she already has/wants with him. XD; Because that would be incredibly painful for her."
July 17th"Tomo's become aware that yes, actually, she would be thrilled to be Sano's girlfriend! But--it's not something that she lets cripple their interactions, and she immediately brushes off the advice of people like Ed and Norma, which tends to be 'Well you'll have to make him see that you're the kind of girl he needs!' In Tomo's mind, that's exactly what she's doing."
July 29th"she considers Sano and Himeko to be Her People, and she also considers Himeko to be Sano's (and on some level, yes, she considers herself to be Sano's as well--but doesn't consider either of them as belonging to Himeko), so the overall mental process there is that Tomo and Sano belong to each other (p-platonically!) and Himeko belongs to them both."
August 1st"Finding out that Sano had a thing for Rinko would in no way deter Tomo from going after him exactly the way she does now."
September 8th"She doesn't want to do stupid girly things like skipping through the fields and holding hands and all that. But she's realized finally that she doesn't HAVE to want to do that stuff to be a girlfriend. And that she's a lot more emotionally attached to him than she was giving herself credit for."
That's everything I can find, so I thiiiiink that's about it, not counting IC conversations. (The most important IC one, with Wolfram, is linked in that last thing from the 8th.) SO YOU SEE it's almost like an essay that I've been writing for five months straight! Which is clearly awesome.
(But if anything wasn't covered there, feel free to ask? On any subject really, not just Sano stuff. |D)
ETA OOPS I lied about the Wolfram thread being linked in that one post, lol. Lemme find it.
"What's that feel like?" THERE done.
