Talk:The Swan Squad/@comment-3991308-20170812005833

You know, I had a thought about a certain irony in the Swan Squad.

A good majority of our Swan Maidens, or Swan Maidens on the Wikia in general, tbh, want to break free from their background role. They're tired of shadowing Duchess, or being yet another Swan Maiden. They wish to be better, more interesting, or seen as those two things, because hey, they deserve better.

However, given that these Swan Maidens all wish for this means that they fail to fulfill their wishes. Due to this inherent similarity – furthered by the fact that most of our swan maidens are named with the "cygnet" and "swan" convention – these Swan Maidens end up becoming the hivemind that they vainly attempt to escape.

And I think there's some sort of tragedy in that.
