the way my heart dropped… like no babes, I don’t like him that much but this is devastating
I do agree he deserves a good slap in the face, but not in this circumstance, not for that reason… those who didn't have a welcoming home know this pain, the violence for the sake of violence
I’m in complete shock and at loss of words.. this story is so rich and the approach the author chose to take is so compelling to me, it’s truly a masterpiece.
See? you don’t need to romanticizing r for the sake of shock, it’s not cool, it’s not quirky… this is good writing, this is to make you reflect, to make you uncomfortable and feel helpless just as much as the character - and it does a fantastic job in making you fear men, definitely choosing the bear btw.
You don’t need to give an awful past to a character to exempt them of responsibility, people can just be evil without any “logical” reason.
Also fuck redemption arcs.
Again, I love this approach, very mature, very rich and very interesting.
