#you’re comparing white male character who had 3 years of cognative maturation on claudia a black girl in jim crow era

I'm not sure where fandom got this idea that you're mentally stuck at the age you were turned, I do not think that's supported by canon.. in the book, Claudia is not mentally 5 by the end. She speaks and acts like a grown ass woman and thats why its incredibly sad that her mind and her body are so far apart. She even says this that if Louis had waited just a few more years she would have a real body.

#bailey bass also points this out #she gains 33 years of experience and maturity that comes with that #but is locked in to all the ways her 14 year old brain which is a physical organ does not change #she does not grow past her trauma and how to deal with them #just like everybody else #y’all just expect more from her #iwtv #claudia #louis de pointe du lac #this the last one im gonna answer. #but to the one who pointed out book armand #you’re comparing white male character who had 3 years of cognative maturation on claudia a black girl in jim crow era #its an adaptation for a reason #i’m interacting and speaking abt the show #i don’t make assumptions about the books #all those sections you guys fight show meta with will also be adapted
