Can we get some special love for middle children with eldest daughter syndrome. For whatever reason you had to be the big sibling to your elder sibling too. You had to grow up in the shadow of someone who you were also expected to be responsible for. You had to grow up extra-fast so you could be your elder sibling's guide and mentor and babysitter even though your family clearly favored them and they were given more opportunities in life. You have a weird slightly dysfunctional relationship with your elder sibling because of that.
You deserved to be a child too. You deserved to be seen. You deserved help. You deserved better. I hope you are able to find a place where the only person you have to take care of is yourself. You shouldn't have to carry your whole family forever.

I’m generally surprised there’s basically no angsty stuff for ddv. Like there’s SO much potential, Mickey’s missing wife, memory loss, loneliness, lost hope, guilt, etc! Like ESPECIALLY the mc, they literally abandoned & forgot about their kingdom full of people who are trapped, lost some/a lot of their memories, people being gone (not dead but you can get them back), not to mention the condition the valley itself is in when you get there. The player’s gonna feel a whole lot of guilt for what they did, possibly trying to overwork themselves due to them trying to “make up for it” (they’re already doing enough to make up for it). They do this to the point that everyone’s incredibly concerned for their wellbeing (including the villains!), so when someone finds the ruler passed out the ones who have been there longer would nonchalantly would carry them/find someone to carry them to their house while the newer ones would be very confused as to why they’re so nonchalant about their ruler being passed out (maybe even dead). The last part would hilarious but the rest is just pure angst.

Anna: *is neglected and abandoned for majority of her life, starting at like age 5*
Anna: *runs into someone who actually sees Her and notices Her and doesn't act like she's invisible or a burden for the first time in over a decade*
Anna: hey sister I desperately want to notice me and will accept even the tiniest bit of attention from, here is a man I just met that is, *checks notes*, actually talking to me. I'm going to marry him.
Elsa: that's ridiculous! You just met him.
Anna: ~~yeah and in the few hours I've been with him he has talked to me more than you (or anyone else really) have in like 13 ish years~~ Oh haha yeah but like... I Know him and he's a prince!
Elsa: No. I don't approve.
Anna: ~~who the hell are you to approve??? You. Don't. Talk. To. Me.~~ Oh. Uh. Well can we talk about it? (Definitely is not desperate and terrified to lose the tiniest shred of a shred of a relationship she has with her sister) *Reaches out for the attention and affection she is so starved of*
Elsa: *freaks out, reveals giant secret, runs away*
Anna: holy *shit*... I gotta go make sure she's okay!! ~~I gotta make sure I don't lose her.~~
Anna: *goes after Elsa and gets shamed by another stranger for A going after her and B 'falling for a man she just met'*
Elsa: *rejects her more and tells Anna she is better off without her*
Anna: *heartbroken cause the last member of her family, the person she idolizes and so desperately wants love from, Keeps Rejecting Her.*
Anna: *leaves heart broken ~~and heart frozen~~ to go back to the only person this whole night who has shown her undivided 'love', attention, care, affection*
Hans: *is an asshole out of no where????*
Anna: *heartbroken AGAIN because she really can't trust anyone and maybe it's her own fault she's so unlovable.*
Elsa: *Is gonna be killed*
Anna: *is on the brink of literal death and when it comes to going after the stranger who is actually pretty nice and kind and likes her for her and treats her with respect vs the person who she has longed for her entire life even though she keeps pushing her away, she goes after her sister because despite it all she still wants Her love, hell just her Attention above anything else.*
The movie: This is true love 🥰
Me, definitely not projecting my own life onto this at twelve: Hold up this hurts a lot and I relate to these characters wait-
My sister: This movie is mine and only I get to sing and only I get to love it cause it's mine. But if you sing it perfectly and never mess up any of the words or notes I guess I'll let you watch with me.
Me: Really???? 😍🥺🥰🥺😍
...
Okay so this was going to be a critique about how Anna is seen as naive and dumb and it is used against her the entire movie without ever acknowledging *why* she's like that. And how a lot of fans don't see it either. But then it really just turned into me trauma dumping lmao.
But seriously. I feel like most of the neglect and abuse talk ends up being towards Elsa cause she visibly struggles more. And Anna hides it because she has to. Her parents were so worried about elsa that they didnt have time for her pain too. So it's hidden. But it is most definitely there. And it deserves to be mentioned and talked about.
Also this is a very common situation for emotionally neglected people to find themselves in. They cling onto someone showing the slightest bit of decency and believe it's good and amazing cause when you're starved, you'll eat poison if it might help for just a moment. Cause something is better than nothing. And when the something is bad and hurting, the pain of going back to nothing is worse. So you're stuck with a Hans believing it's what you deserve because of years of neglect and abuse.
But yeah. Anna is just dumb and naive. Definitely no trauma on her end.
Bottom line:
Anna deserves better. In canon and from fandom. And ESPECIALLY from Disney.

Been trying to convince myself that I’m not traumatized by parents and that I don’t have mommy issues, but I decided to re-read pjo in honor of the casting of the show.I got to the page in tlt where Percy went home for summer break and was talking about how great his mom was and how much she cared for him, and I have to admit, I don’t think it’s normal to start crying when reading a couple pages of a character having a good relationship with their mother.

Fanfic Ask - B, Q, V
Sweet Hylia I answer one ask and another pops up! /j
B (Any of your stories inspired by personal experience?): Absolutely! Bunny Bumps and Bruises is like 90% based on something that happened to me that day. Sicktember Day 11 is a mashup of me going to the ER for pneumonia when I was like 8 and me going to the ER recently and remembering how much being in a hospital freaks me out. And then I dumped it all on poor Lege. 💜
Q (Do you have any discarded scenes/storylines/projects?): Probably that Zack and Wiki crossover fic I told Dragon about.
V (A secondary (or underrated) character you want to see more of in fic?): Hmm I think in this fandom we're pretty well balanced? I could always use more Ravio though.
