my gf said something sooo insane about helly the other day and i cannot stop thinking about it. she was like. helena and hellyâs relationship is almost maternal. the way helena created helly as an extension of herself, to serve her interests, to try and impress her own family. she scolds helly, talks down to her like a child. âi understand youâre unhappy with the life youâve been givenâ âi am a person, you are notâ. the way she envies and resents hellyâs freedom. the way she feels entitled to hellyâs life and is now living vicariously through her in the most literal sense. what if you created life and now theyâre experiencing the things youâve always wanted for yourself. what if you created life and they were flawed and loud and demanding and they were loved more than youâve ever been. and you hated them for it. the mother/daughterisms are insane my girlfriend is insane
#I just liked this post at first but I canât stop thinking about it#innies as a metaphor for children with outies as their parents isâŚâŚ..#so fucking fascinating too#like#why do we have children?#what does it cost us and how do they forgive us#mark severing to make a new version of him without trauma#Dylan severing to make a better version of himself who can achieve what he canât#Irving severing to serve a higher purpose and fulfill a moral goal#and how their innies manifest outside of their outies control#then of course subvert and become their own people ughhghghgh Iâm feral
