Embrace the Hate

[peninhand]

She doesn't hate him! Sorta...

She's very angry. She realizes he's most likely just done what he thought was best and screwed up big time. She realizes he probably didn't have any bad intents. So she doesn't hate him. When she thinks about it rationally, she feels even her anger isn't justified. But she can't help it. Obviously ever since she's arrived in Avalon, she's been really anxious about finding a boyfriend/girlfriend. What with the video game event having traumatized her, it got worse.

Kind of like in DDLC, she believes that "love" will solve her problems. She knows it won't deep down, but believing that does help. On top of that there are insecurities linked to DDLC. Why was she the only non-dateable girl, why did the player betray her, is she not good enough, is there something wrong with her? So when he made her feel as though she was so close to finally get there, only for everything to collapse? That hurts on a lot of levels. It kind of amplified her every problem and made her wonder if maybe it wasn't the game stopping her from being dateable.

Maybe there's something fundamentally wrong with her that makes her unlovable? She doesn't want to give up though. And so Kipposhi finds himself as the scapegoat. He's kind of become the symbol of every single issues she has on a subconscious level. So it's less about hating him, and more about him having become the avatar for all of her fears, insecurities and self-loathing.

.... If she realized that, then maybe she could "forgive" him (and also apologize herself).

honestly that feels about right, and runs pretty parallel to his own feelings on the matter. like shit, what if he's genuinely not capable of having normal relationships, least of all romantic ones, any longer. every single "romance" in his life served a greater purpose towards his ambition, and he also realizes he feels permanently stuck in this adolescent mindset of "things will work out even if i don't follow common sense" and boy sometimes it don't

They really need to talk! It's more like a big misunderstanding than genuinely hateful feelings. And she does think he needs help, too.

..... But she's still too angry for that. It may take a lot to pierce past all the scapegoating she's put on him.
