#rangnar rambles#harlan. pisses me tf off. especially for the first half of this book ๐Ÿซถ#harlan pisses me off so bad it seeps into my reading of arthur and makes me go 'damn why tf do i hate this guy again???' every reread UNTIL#i get back to him again.#doing the best for my child My ASS โ€ผ๏ธ#(its my extremely sensitive neglected child syndrome acting up n projecting on these guys)#(and also the fact that harlan killed my boy mr bacon ๐Ÿ˜”๐Ÿ’”)#i dont like ANY of davids paternal figures ๐Ÿ˜ญ not when we get down to it#liz never did shit wrong bc david was ostensibly some guy in her guest room#and eliza was so WEIRD!! shes so... subdued and harlan bulldozes over her all the time. it feels BAD!!! ๐Ÿ˜ฌ BUT SHE LOVES HER KIDS#(i am halfway into fireworld and i dont remember the last 2 books well. this is all subject to change ofc)#idk the intricacies of like. well these characters are all iterations of each other so. In Theory. they would act the same under the same#circumstances. is so interesting. (and if thats the case. am *i* deeply misunderstanding liz and arthur or are harlan and eliza#as off base as i think ๐Ÿ’€ (noooo it couldnt be me ๐Ÿ‘€))#'off base' -> ig its. eliza and harlan that are the blueprint. but theyre not my favourites so im ignoring that#ugh its also just the 'child different? bang with hammer until not different anymore โ€ผ๏ธ๐Ÿ‘' society of b6 having an Impact on the narrative#(crazy ik)#wherein i can sit here and daydream all day about how david merriman would have had such a better time growing up on earth#(explicitly with these different versions of his parents) but how could i say for sure when its the CIRCUMSTANCES โ€ผ๏ธโ€ผ๏ธ#harlan wouldnt have done manslaughter if your kid having autism wasnt a call for them to be incinerated ๐Ÿ˜”#eliza would be less spineless if she werent constantly having to second guess her emotional reactions to fit in ๐Ÿ˜”#ill make myself feel bad for them in a minute but thog dont care#i wish david had been a more overt little freak b1-3#and also that arthur had killed a guy (im never letting this go now ive remembered its so fucking funny)#b6 and the society it builds is also super funny (horrifying) when you think about how hard b3/4 (?) keep trying to tell you the fain are#Good. like intrinsically.#and ARE THEY?? cus they dont feel like it sometimes!!! did i fall for fain propaganda only to be shocked when it was more complicated ๐Ÿ˜”#'haha we're not evil like those guys. we just incinerate people who ask questions. or get in The Way. or are different. haha. dont worry#about The Plan. its fine. dont you like your magic powers and the fact you have everything you could ever want.
