#‘oh abuse is inevitable and you standing up for yourself wont even save you in the long run’

[caelumsnuff]

do you have any opinions on the recent geordi video?

Why thank you for asking! Yes i sure do!!!

So these are a lot of the same opinions i have stated on this blog before but im SO happy they broke up and im SO proud of Geordi!!!! He’s doing great, my baby boy standing up for himself!!!

I have some really strong apprehension about where this series is going though, and I honestly really genuinely hope they never get back into a romantic relationship together again, for reasons. Honestly i would even be upset if they became friends after all this was said and done. I wouldn’t mind if they like sat down and had a conversation way way way after the fact just to tie off any loose ends and agree to go their separate ways, but i dont know if thats likely???

Im really curious about the whole Geordi knowing about magic thing is gonna go now tho, i am intrigued by the possibility that he gets his memory wiped by the department LOL. (I am now realizing that this would give Erik the opportunity to rewrite Cutie coming back into his life afterwards, which would be. Fucking horrible. I hope this stays a silly little thought in my silly little head and doesn’t come to fruition.)

Im interested to see where it goes but im holding onto the proverbial oh shit handle. Im just really tired of all the “just forgive your abuser UwU they apologized so its okay OwO just hug itll make everything better i promise u3u” type stories that have been coming out recently. Im sure some other abuse survivors disagree with me, and thats okay, thats just my opinion and what i personally desire out of my media. Erik was trying to have a narrative about how abuse is bad with this storyline and i just hope the ending/culmination of that isn’t “forgive them and get back in a relationship with your abuser.” Therapy and changing your behavior doesn’t entitle you to forgiveness or having access to someone’s life again.

I hope that Geordi heals from yet another abusive relationship, and maybe in the future falls in love with someone who actually respects him, finds some friends he can have healthy relationships with. I want him happy to be honest, i really feel for him.

Thanks again for the ask!
