Roasting OI leads, Part 2: Baby tyrant.
Now before I begin, I want to say that for once, it was refreshing to see an OI dad who didn't hate their kid for "killing" his wife in childbirth...
But Estevan here is taking that shit to the complete opposite extreme! This ain't a girl dad, nah, this just the average red flag ML except as a father instead of a husband.
Theres being a girl dad, and then theres this thing.
Bitch, ain't no way you are competing WITH YOUR SON!? Your 6 year old SON!
I know he's described as a young father but regardless he's still a grown ass man competing with his son over his daughters love.
Bro why!? My guy, what is wrong with you!?
Even Mabel is done with her dads bullshit. 😭
How has the empire not destabilized!?
a KEY territory! Dude! Haven't you ever heard of the words "Chill" or God forbid "Less is more."
(In his defense, he actually does do more for Mabel outside of these superfluous gifts like taking care of her when she's sick and generally being present in her life but my point still stands as the gifts take up a majority of his on panel adoration for Mabel)
I know I'm not the only one thinking this cause even Mabel is wondering how the empire isn't in total shambles from this dudes antics.
Mabel ain't even the best protagonist but the only reason shes earned a little respect from me is because at least we agree that Estevan is a nutcase.
By the way, how the hell are you an overprotective father and you can't even do that right?
Context: Basically Mabel comes into contact with a verified threat (Aiden) but this doofus is more concerned that he didn't get to hear her first words because of it.
He can't even do the one thing he's good for!
By the way, Estevans treatment of his secretary is FOUL. Gustaf in general gets the short end of the stick way too much and the way his boss treats him is undeserved. Half the time he's getting caught in Estevans bullshit and has to pick up after him and you know he isn't getting a raise for it either.
You KNOW your a bad boss if he prefers working for a literal TODDLER over you.
Now, I get that it's essential to the plot that Mabel becomes the Empress so she can actually be a tyrant as the title suggests. (I'll get into more depth about this in a future post) but Estevan, brother in christ. That doesn't mean I won't call you an idiot!
Sure it is explained that Mabel is only Empress is name and Estevan still does most of the work while she's still a baby but you don't just get to hand your one year old the responsibility of the empire she didn't want to rule AND planned to go to someone else and be shocked that she gets pissed with you!
If it weren't for the fact that Oscar was chill with being side stepped, I'd be flamming him even more.
And while it's pretty well known by this point, this guy is not giving Oscar the love he should be getting. Oscar is a way better person than me cause if Estevan was my father, I would've went off a long time ago. Sure from what I've seen so far, he isn't too bad toward Oscar but Mabels gotten two birthday chapters based on what I've read so far (43 chapters) and Oscar didn't even get ONE! Like... show my boy some love! Why do we gotta neglect the other children for the sake of the lead. From what I've heard from reddit, it only gets worse.
And once again, Mabel is the one having to try and fail to communicate to her dad to try to think about his first born.
"Baby tyrant" and yet Mabel was the one parenting Oscar better than the adults, and she is the baby!
Closing out with a Justice for Gustaf because he deserves a nice paid vacation away from that shit.
Who's next?
I thought my time was up
divorcing my tyrant husband
Cry or better yet beg
