[demonkinguwu]

Whoa I write a lot lol Anyways <3

Personally, I see the prince being a little bit like Snatcher is currently so I'll say they were neglectful in a way. Not in the 'We literally hate your existence' but rather like 'Oh wow, that's great hun we can talk about it later.' and never speak of the topic again.

They weren't exactly downright evil or anything, just too busy to acknowledge their son's presence unless he achieved a major milestone for them to take the credit for his achievements. The prince is okay with this because he craves any kind of positive attention and desperately doesn't want to be alone. Eventually, they kinda forgot all about him after he was engaged to Vanessa and he forgot about them as he now has someone who wants to give him that love and support he craves.

I feel like they would be sad over his death but move on quickly as they, despite being their son, never really knew him. Saying 'Oh he was just too shy and introverted to speak or write to us often. He just never did want to be around us, he was just an immature boy, you know?' Just making excuses, in general, to shift the blame on him without outright saying it and actually believing they weren't to blame for any of it. There aren't any lines of Snatcher mentioning his parents, not even in the death wish lines, or a letter from them in the manor so this is kinda my HC due to how much he tolerated from Vanessa. With him thinking her obsessive love for him as sweet on her part since she knew how distant he was from his parents, not exactly seeing that her obsession wasn't exactly normal.

TLDR: Sad Boy has neglectful parents who never took the time to care for him properly, turning him into a dependant people pleaser and eventually landing him in a toxic relationship, thinking this is normal and finally getting the love he craved :]

Guys...what are your interpretations for the prince's parents.. I'm gen curious
