Bro, this poor kid is so obviously physically abused.
He literally would’ve gotten cut here if he didn’t move his head to the side. And even then, it still barely cut a bit of his hair.
From this scene I have a feeling that Hunter has dealt with Belos’s cursed form head on before, from the way he looks away as if afraid.
Or how here he just tenses up and closes his eyes, expecting to get hit, as if getting hit is a normal punishment for him.
Look at the way he flinches and tenses up, when all Belos did was snatch the key. It’s like he was expecting Belos to hurt him.
The way he flinches when Belos flicks his hair. Like he expects a hit.
And then there are things Hunter says that tells us he is abused.
“The emperor is not a merciful man” probably saying that out of experience.
“Come back with results, or else…” he probably would get hit if he didn’t come back with results
“I can’t go back empty handed… not again” he will get hurt if he comes back empty handed (like he almost did)
As someone who has been physically abused, a lot of Hunters mannerisms (like the way he flinches, closes his eyes, and tenses up when near that person (or even other people), even if they aren’t doing anything real threatening) reminds me a lot of myself. I fully believe he is physically abused, and if it’s revealed that he isn’t I will be genuinely shocked, because all of his mannerisms add up.
The Coyote in the Road Runner does teach us something very important about real life that sometimes even if you try real hard, you don’t get what you want
