well, yeah, this is exactly what happens when a kid gets failed by their own parents. i genuinely can’t stand ruan’s parents. they barely parented him, yet herdic somehow did a better job than his actual parents, who were too busy favoring his sibling instead of treating them fairly. that’s so toxic because ruan clearly carried that shit with him that he ended up dragging cloden into it too.

genuinely, i’d never wish for someone like ruan. getting so carried away by your own emotions that you forget everyone around you. he’s clearly not mentally stable, and honestly, he’s suffocating af. toxic as hell, too.
