#unlovable and wylan- who is known to be easily jealousy- would hate his fathers reminder of his inadequacy and what he failed to be

Wylan:

Jan Van Eck: Alys is pregnant with a son, who will become my true heir

Wylan: Cain instinct is real, I wanna kick this unborn child into the next realm of existence, he can never truly be my brother, Kaz is more my brother than that thing

#the difference was that wylan was working under the assumption that van eck would treat his little brother the same way he treated wylan #without love and as a constant burden and disappointment- which is why wylan would have been so quick to hype him up because wylan knows #what it feels like to not get van ecks love and he would never want his younger brother to think he was unloved- but then wylan saw #van eck love this unborn child more than he loved wylan and so wylan has to fully face the fact that it wasnt something wrong with his #father (it was but wylan wouldnt come to that conclusion)because his father does know how to love his son- so it must be that wylan is #unlovable and wylan- who is known to be easily jealousy- would hate his fathers reminder of his inadequacy and what he failed to be #alys' kid is basically van eck's kuwei- there in an attempt to replace wylan- the only difference is Jesper doesnt want to replace wylan #but van eck does- and that is what makes van eck the bad guy because we have this idea of unconditional love of a parent and van eck is #here to say 'but sometimes it isnt unconditional- some times there are conditions' and i think that is what makes him so much scarier #he is there to feed at our own insecurities of 'what if i am only lovable to a point' van eck is both a monster and incredibly human #he is what we're afraid our parents will be- he's so incredibly possible and real that he is one of the best villains ive seen in a while #wylan van eck #jan van eck #six of crows #incorrect soc quotes #crooked kingdom #six of crows spoilers #honestly alys did nothing wrong and I love her #even if she doesnt have the best singing voice- she owns it- much to the dismay of the crows #but she also cares about wylan so much and she is such a sweet innocent girl and she is the best #so dont even try to bash her cause i will fight you in a Denny's parking lot istg #alys van eck
