#i jest but i do think that the belief that love cant coexist with abuse is wishful thinking for simplicity of human dynamics

I think when you want to talk about silco's emotionally abusive parenting then you HAVE to acknowledge that he genuinely cares about jinx and lack of love and care isn't why he fails her, he fails her specifically because he loves her for her AND as an extension of himself. and he is ALSO abnormal, if jinx straight up went 'hey father figure I'm seeing demons and my deceased family members whisper abuse into my ears all hours of night and day' he would be like oh yes that's the shadow demon ralph who attaches to our family and conjures up images of our past regrets, my father saw one too before he threw himself off the bridge. like of course he failed her as a parent, he's delulu in a way that he thinks they are both doing fine

#arcane #silco and jinx #silco #mine #i jest but i do think that the belief that love cant coexist with abuse is wishful thinking for simplicity of human dynamics #the reality that you can be loved and still mistreated is just a hard contradiction to accept
