#WHY ARE WE STILL ON THIS ''CATRAS ABUSIVE'' THING.. ITS BEEN YEARS. IVE BEEN SUFFERING FOR YEARS

[horde-princess]

Ok so we know that Catra sometimes scratched Adora when she felt insecure or out-of-control (there were only two examples that I can think of, though.) They’re frequently cited as evidence of Catra being ‘abusive’. (I call bs on that but whatever.) Anyway, how do you think Catra reins in that harmful impulse (and others she might struggle with) in the future?

tbh its inaccurate to say that its an impulse she can’t control.. she scratched her once when she was a little kid it wasnt a recurring thing and in 1x05, 1x13 etc it wasnt impulsive it was deliberate they were enemies fighting a war, like.... yeah

as far as her tendency to lash out when she’s insecure, they addressed that in 5x08 with the whole “i’m sorry, i got angry. it’s something i’m working on.” idk what else to say i think its just something that she’ll have to practice and get better at and she has a good support system now to remind her she’s loved and hold her accountable 😌
