It always astounds me when people call characters who are victims of abuse dumb and terrible for not hating their abusers and still listening to them. "Ugh why would Peril want to keep working for Scarlet after book 1 she's so stupid, she should just keep her!!" "Harry’s so awful he keeps wanting to avenge Norman despite knowing he was criminal he's such a bad person" They Were Manipulated Jennifer their abusers raised them in such a way that made them idolize them and have a hard time seeing them as bad people I don't understand how you managed to miss that important aspect of the character entirely it's starting to feel you like you are ignoring it intentionally because you don't like them
#I've seen this happen more with Peril than Harry but my point still stands#And listen as much as it would ROCK to see Peril personally rip Scarlet apart because she hates her that much#Or to see Harry get in Norman's face about how awful of a parent he was#It takes time for them to even come to terms with the fact that their parents who they've been manipulated into idolizing are bad people#And I'm so sick and tired of seeing everyone acting like characters like them are stupid and horrible for not IMMEDIATELY recognizing that#harry osborn#spider man#raimiverse#raimi trilogy#raimi spider man#wof#wings of fire#wof peril#peril wof#wings of fire peril#peg speaks
