i have such mixed feelings on the concept of reclamation and giving something "power over you", which is a phrase that itches me down to my soul for reasons i've yet to articulate. but the way im thinking of very specific aspects of this character (Venit) rn im like....you know not everything needs to be reclaimed. some things were used to hurt you and you can avoid interacting with or doing that thing for the rest of your life if you want or need to. not every fear or repulsion needs to be moved past or turned into some kind of sword. reclaiming something isn't necessarily the path to healing.
