"mutuals can ask for discord" mutuals can haunt me after they die. mutuals can paint my immortal youth in a cursed portrait. mutuals can build a 8ft tall creature in my college dorm. mutuals can watch me wake up as a monstrous vermin. mutuals can feed me soup after i commit murder. mutuals can help me kill uncle claudius. mutuals can go out with me and my girlfriend from across the bay. mutuals can hunt the beast with me. do better

The Creature: You made me, therefore you must bear the consequences of my creation.

Victor Frankenstein: Nuh-uh

The Creature: fym nuh-uh?

men don't even stitch up 8ft amalgamations of corpses anymore in hopes of creating new and perfect life within their dormitory anymore. due to woke

Science had a lot to do with it actually! If science never had become his passion then he would have never created the creature in the first place.

Also, please put yourself in his shoes for a second, imagine you find this cool new thing you're interested in and when you tell a loved one they call your passions "sad trash". Then when you go to college thinking you'll find more people like you you end up facing the same treatment, but one day you found someone with the same ideas as you so after all the years of having to suppress everything you put your all into doing everything you can to satisfy your long awaited urges.

Victor lost himself in his project not realizing what was going to happen. He had a goal and he wasn't thinking about anything past it. After the creature came to life he finally snapped out of the trance like state he was in and his first instinct was to run, which is very understandable to me. Keep in mind his frontal lobe was not even fully developed by this time, he was literally 19 years old.

I believe his inability to handle his emotions is caused by aspd, which can make an individual have a hard time managing negative emotions such as anger, frustration, and sadness. It also makes people struggle with feeling empathy towards others, which sounds familiar doesn't it.

In my opinion he wasn't dumb, he just wasn't thinking about things in the long run, he only thought about his feelings in the moment

you want me to go to science class? As in the thing that doomed victor Frankenstein? Yeah I don't think so

“Oh, Frankenstein! Generous and self-devoted being! What does it avail that I now ask thee to pardon me? I, who irretrievably destroyed thee by destroying all thou lovedst. Alas! he is cold, he cannot answer me.”

People need to talk about how well Frankenstein handles the concepts of cause and effect and familial abuse. There is not one good parent in Frankenstein, and that directly ties into so much. If Caroline hadn’t groomed Elizabeth and manipulated Victor and Elizabeth into feeling like they needed to marry eachother, Elizabeth would’ve been alive. If Alphonse hadn’t dismissed victors interests as “sad trash” the creature would’ve never existed. If Henry’s dad didn’t judge his passions to the point Henry felt pressured to stay at home for two years, the creature, say it with me

WOULDN’T HAVE BEEN CREATED.

If Justine’s mother gave even one fuck about her Justine wouldn’t have ran off to live with the frankensteins, and say it with me

WOULDN’T HAVE DIED!!!

And all of this is complimented by Victor grasping at any sense of control and making his creature, his son, only to run away in disgust. The story is atleast a little bit about how parenting affects a child, and I will stand by that Til I die. If literally any of the people in this story were good parents, so many deaths and plot points could’ve been avoided.
