Portrait of a Sailor, Lawrence Alma-Tadema, 1858

I'm rewatching Trollhunters in the background right now, and the disfunctional mother son relationship between Jim and his mom is making me crazy.

Like, he's taking care of the household and his mother for years as a teenager and before probably. She is sometimes giving half hearted comments about him not having to do so much, but very obviously she's not gonna make him stop do all the cooking and cleaning. Y'know. Both because they've been living like this for years, and because it's obviously also very comfortable to have someone do all the house work.

Then Strickler comes into the picture, and if we ignore the whole Troll and changeling side of the story, Barabara gets very offended cause Jim doesn't want her to meet him privately. Again, ignoring the whole magic and trolls stuff, STRICKLER IS JIMS TEACHER. If Jim hadn't figured out that Strickler was a changeling he probably wouldn't have a problem with it, but the fact that he does, no matter the reason, should be enough for Barbara to put a stop to the relationship. Her child is clearly uncomfortable with her seeing/dating that guy, for whatever reason, and even clearly vocalized it. But she doesn't care about, or rather, she tells Jim that she "wouldn't expect something like that" from him. Obviously not, cause she may see him like her child/teenager he is, BUT DOESN'T TREAT HIM LIKE ONE.

And then Jim, unknowingly to Barbara, becomes the Trollhunter, and his behavior changes. He's suddenly doing reckless stuff, sneaking out, getting bruises, landing in detention and even at the police station, barely avoiding a police report. What does she do? Asking him what's going on? If everything's alright at school? If he has any other problems? Maybe trying to lower his workload around the house, which again, he's doing most of that as a teenager and longer probably.

Nah. She doesn't do anything until he lands in the hospital. Except for again, dismissing him rather negatively at the one topic he's openly expressing any negative opinions about (Strickler). And after he lands in the hospital she now starts not asking questions, but demanding answers. Demanding answers from a teenager in a difficult situation who is also now acting much more like a teenager than he ever did before, from her point of view at least. Except she obviously doesn't know how to deal with a teenager, cause she has never had to raise or live with a teenager. She instead lived with a child pretending to be an adult for years, that was partly much more of an adult than she was, who did way to much work even before Jim became the Trollhunter. So she throws punishments at him and grounds him, but does he listen?

No. Cause why should he? Not only is he dealing with things much more important than being grounded, yknow, saving the world, he's trying to protect her from the sheer knowledge of the supernatural and physically protecting her from getting harmed. And again, for the majority of the time since his dad left he pretended to be an adult. He was and is the main adult in the household, dealing with important things she doesn't even know about.

The only one's treating Jim like a teenager are teachers, other children and Blinky and Aaargh sort of when they're not in the middle of Troll business. Strickler, in the first episodes where Jim doesn't know about his true identity, is much more of a parental figure to Jim (also after his redemption later on tbh) than his mother.

In summary: Barbara is treating her son like an adult, almost like a partner, instead of a child/teenager. And when that isn't possible anymore she doesn't know how to properly treat him. She also doesn't really care that her son is uncomfortable with her being around Strickler, or Strickler in general. And it takes Blinky telling her (when Jim is 16) that Jim might be affected by his father leaving when he was five years old.

Jim meanwhile is treating his mother more like a child/teenager instead of the adult and MOTHER that she is. Seeing her as his responsibility. Cooking for her. Cleaning for her. Telling her to rest and take breaks.

They obviously love each other other. And their relationship might not be toxic, but it's very much disfunctional. In a way that is mostly negative for Jim.

when clarice lispector said: I thought that, in adding up everything I understood, I loved. I didn’t know that, adding up everything you don’t understand is the way to truly love —

and walter benjamin said: the only way to know someone is to love them without hope —

and d.h. lawrence said: there is a beyond in you, in me, which is further than love, beyond the scope, as [some] stars are beyond the scope of vision and also said I deliver myself over to the unknown, in coming to you, I am without reserves or defences, stripped entirely, into the unknown —

and when rilke said that love is this: two solitudes that protect and touch and greet each other—

other playlists. sorry if you don't like every genre ever. i do. lol. featuring smaller walton roles! yay!!

[walter-hotgirl-white]

explaining why i like breaking bad: it’s a cinematic masterpiece of how one can destroy themselves and everyone around them with their own pride. the acting, cinematography and writing is so incredibly brilliant. the plot is thrilling and well paced and tied up with a bow with its impactful finale. overall, it’s one of the most brilliant shows of all time.

explaining why i like saw: it’s a damn good time i can tell you that much

Gettysburg (1993) as Vines because this fandom has NONE, not anymore now though!!! so enjoy

Most of them have Pickett, Tom, and Longstreet in them?? I wanted to have more characters in there but the majority of Vines I could think of fit those three (Uncle Longstreet trope is strong in this comp). Not enough Buford, Reynolds, Hancock, and Lofield Hanistead in this one imo but I'm bound to make another one at some point so :D

who is your favorite old AIO character? It can be anyone, from Lucy to Donna to Richard Maxwell!

Unquestionably Bernard Walton! Odyssey's resident window-washer, grouch, troll, storyteller, and hilariously reluctant cousin. He's just the best.

Of course, there's others I love too! Tom Riley was awesome (gosh, I'm missing his character just thinking about it). Edwin Blackgaard and Walter Shakespeare were great, too. And honestly, a number of the saga specific characters were really just amazing and I wish they became more regular parts of the cast, like Buck and Penny did after Green Ring.

My favourite kid character was probably a super obscure one, like Digger Digwillow or Irwin Springer. Lawrence was fun, though!

Thanks so much for the ask! I've not thought enough about Odyssey for too long, and I'm very glad for the return :)

Hiii hiii I know you're dals dedicated blog 😌 but I was just wondering what other books from Romance Club have you enjoyed so far? What are your other favorite lis?

I would love to see your other playthroughs as well if you're comfortable sharing 🤗🤗♥️

Hi!! It's so sweet of you to ask!! Here are some other RC books I've enjoyed:

Psi. Objectively, the best book I've played so far. Lou, her dynamic with Kay (platonic or romantic), and the plot are all amazing 👌👌👌 Initially romanced Ivo, but he wasn't doing much for me, so am now replaying for Kay!

Arcanum. Most people seem to dislike the ending, and I disagree!!! I think that, plot-wise, it was an excellent ending!!! It makes you look at the whole book through a new lens, and the bad route endings fit perfectly with the replayability of a visual novel game!!! Underrated fr!! From that one, I romanced and enjoyed Liam, but nowadays, I think I would enjoy Damon more, despite………….. everything.

Ash in Song of the Crimson Nile finally gave me more of that sociopathic, entitled, manipulative flavor that I was craving post-Mehmed 🥰🥰 But like, with his own quirks and everything, he's not a Mehmed copy, you know what I mean? From that book, I also ADORE Livius and his beautiful friendship with MC. It pleasantly surprised me!! He's excellent!

Love, Sin & Evil vol. 1 for the vampires, the vibes, the silliness, and the insane coding. Ngl, this last update really disappointed me, but the one before that was sooo good. They GET it (darkness path>>>). And I think horror might be my favorite genre to play in visual novels, so ❤️❤️❤️ None of the LIs do much for me, but I like the redhead vampire and Tony the best!

Kali: Flame of Samsara. I'm kind of enjoying this more than I did SCN? But I couldn't tell you why, except that I like Christian!

The Flower From Tiamat's Fire for Niall and Nikkal. My loves.

On my to-play list: Legend of the Willow (I'll romance Shino), Chasing You (will romance Rachel), and Heaven's Secret (will go for Lucifer)

Thank you so much for asking! I hope you're having an excellent day!! ❤️❤️❤️
