Kya: Ok, maybe playing ‘whose family is most dysfunctional’ wasn’t the best idea we’ve had. Lin's been crying in the bathroom for an hour. We can’t get them out...
Only one can make me laugh and cry at the same time
remember, you are a very precious golden flower
breathe, smile, and never forget, you are much loved little one
- A Very Precious Golden Flower
I’m sorry the people around you think you’re weak for crying. Bodies are designed to release stress through tears. The fact that so many were taught to suppress their body’s functioning isn’t on you.
The way they start this episode with “this naive cheerful girl needs a kick to continue to amuse me + I can take advantage of the moment of your weakness”
and “you are a freak whom I just tolerate because usually I have an endlessly positive attitude BUT NOT NOW BITCH”
to
“you are so good, now I know that you are serious and I see you as almost a friend”
and “you are so good and your friend says that you are good and you helped me so much and didn’t even take my soul, now you are my friend”
