#so canonically teru didn't kill that guy. no idea how he didn't lol but it was revealed in some extra content thing

Really?!? I guess that makes sense, no one is ever killed off in that show. Still. He was

so badly burned. I guess I just assumed since he never showed up again like everyone else does.

When I think about the character of Teru vs. the character of Mob, I think about how incredibly desensitized to violence Teru is. He has absolutely no issue using his powers to defend himself, sure, but he also fully waterboarded a guy and burned a guy to death in season 1 alone.

Teru has had to use violence to defend himself from a young age, because we can infer that there was no one else there to defend him. Claw has been trying to kidnap him for a long time and he lives by himself. He has fought (and won against) many Claw espers. He's not afraid to hurt them, he has before.

This has clearly deeply traumatized him.

At the beginning of the show, he has built his self image around violence being necessary, and its okay that he's hurt and possibly killed so many people, its okay that he probably has nightmares about their pain and their deaths, he had to do it. He had no choice. He had to defend himself from Claw.

That's why he's so upset that Mob refuses to fight him with his psychic powers. If hurting people isn't a natural part of self-defense, then how can he live with himself?

(This is also why it's so important that Reigen absolutely refuses to let Mob kill anyone. He's too young to be able to live with it. They're all too young.)

Do you ever think about Minoris reaction to being freed from the possession because I do a lot. Like. Imagine you were used as a puppet to torment this incredibly kind and patient boy, who didn't do anything to you except be too odd and off-putting. Imagine you said so many horrible things to him and made school unbearable. Imagine you tormented him until he finally snapped and then he saves your life. After you made his life a living hell, he just...saves you anyway. And he looks at you with big, disappointed eyes and asks you if you actually treat people like that. If you would actually make someone's life a living hell or if that was just Mogami rewriting your personality to suit his needs. And you could lie. You want to lie. But you don't. You are like that. You have done it, multiple times, too many times. You've berated and harassed people who've done nothing but been too weird, too annoying, just existed wrong around you. And you have no excuse. They didn't do anything wrong. He didn't do anything wrong. And what are you supposed to say? "You didn't deserve it" what does that even do? What would make what you did hurt less? What would make up for all the horrible things you told him? What can you possibly say to make up for it? Would you even have said sorry if he HADNT saved you? Do you even know?

And then he just tells you to change. You both know sorry isn't enough. Sorry will never be enough. There is nothing you can do to take it back. You just have to be better. And you have no idea where to start. You have no idea what being a good person even means. And you have to live with knowing somewhere out there there's a complete stranger who will always remember how you treated him, and who decided you deserved to live anyways. And you have no idea why.

So anyways how's your day going.

#aAAAUGHHHH#and its because their traumas are so so different#for teru his trauma was violence being routine and constant#for mob it was violence suddenly uprooting everything#am i making sense#idk. it fucks me up man#mp100#meta

You're absolutely making sense. This is why while Teru was teasing a man he just burned to death Mob was crying because he had to fight a woman.

It occurs to me that the kidnapping attempts were probably also the reason he was able to tell the candy from the divine tree was brainwashing him when no one else could...

the boy is hypervigilant

There is an essay to be written about interpreting Mob Psycho 100 through the lens of the psychology of having power versus the psychology of not having power, and how Mob and Reigen often invert those expectations.

Maybe I'll write it one day.
