I've had this thought of MC doing, like, a Q&A stream, cause yknow people are gonna be curious, but all the questions are about what it's like to live with the brothers and like who their favorite is and if they're dating anyone yadayadayada, and MC is just like, kinda like "ok fine,,,,,,Mammon's my babygirl" and they pan the camera over to reveal Mammon's been laying with his head in in their lap the entire time
yeah we put your girl in the fandom and they villainized her beyond comprehension. yeah sorry they took out all the nuance and made the argument completely black and white. yeah my bad. we can’t reverse it. sorry.
guys. she did not “almost die to an apple and then named her child apple.” the apple was never going to kill her. she views it, symbolically, as when her destiny really started, because it was when she met the prince and got her happily ever after. it is like ashlynn being named slipper ella. it is like briar being named spindle. stupid, sure, but it’s about how apple was her entire life told by every person that her destiny was going to go exactly how she thought it would, down to her name. THAT is the point. it is nothing at all like being named gun after being shot. stop it.
I'm open to an argument for why a character should shift alignment except for apple. she stays in lawful neutral and I will not hear a single word to the contrary
what you need to understand about duchess is that she thinks she’s a good person. to have a version of duchess that does evil things for the sake of being evil destroys the version of duchess that exists in canon, which is one who makes fun of raven for being “evil,” who “doesn’t associate with commoners,” who, when placed into general villainy, freaks out. she goes to headmaster grimm and says I’m not evil! I’m not evil at all! I’m a good person. and he says of course you are, my dear. of course you are. she has no reason to reflect on her own actions, because her destiny is that of someone who is good, and she is a royal. so she must be exactly like her story says she is. she’s a good person. she is.
if you watched ever after high and didn’t ship duchess and sparrow, cool. fair enough. I get it. if you read next top villain and didn’t ship duchess and sparrow??????????? red flag.
what if i (pink haired girl) threw myself into your (knight) arms... because though i could not see your face i loved what of you you managed to give to me.... as the sun was setting....... and as i walked away you took your helmet off with longing to watch me go because you also wish for a moment that things were different...............
