We all know about the running gag with the famous designer chairs on the cover of SxF manga volumes. And how Volume 10 broke that gag, and broke our hearts.

It did, however, follow one tradition. The inside cover art has always mirrored the outside's, and since Volume 4, they've all shown all shown us the cover characters' real selves, not the one they project to the world. Yuri is a suave, have-everything-together man on the outside... and a completely unhinged person with murderous intent on the inside. Nightfall is a cool, collected woman on the outside... and a completely unhinged person with murderous intent on the inside. Huh.

In both, it's very clear that the unhinged person on the inside is the one honest about what they want - for Yuri, it's for his brother-in-law to die and/or divorce his sister, preferably both, in any order. For Fiona, it's for Twilight to not die but definitely get a divorce, and then to marry her, also in any order.

In both of these volumes, those inside illustrations are drawn explicitly as thought bubbles.

But even when they're not, they still play on the same duality. Damian is a tough, entitled little brat on the outside; he's a sweet, bashful little boy who just wants friends on the inside. Becky's a spoilt little madam who loves pink on the outside; she's a spoilt little madam who will run a pink tank over you on the inside. (Let's be honest, Becky is the only one remotely living as her true self in this series.)

And so... on the inside cover art being about who people really are, reflecting what people really want. Well. I leave you with this:

ohhhh my god webb got an image of the pillars of creation and it’s absolutely STUNNING.
