i honestly think that Derek's relationship with his mom is very one sided. I honestly assume she neglected him and he had to deal with the trauma of his dad all on his own.
The only reason he's scamming people is to get attention from his mom; hell, he even dyes his hair to try and make himself look "good enough", but ultimately I really don't think she cares about him. I have a feeling he knows that too but he's still holding onto the idea if he just tries hard enough he'll probably be happy again.
#posting this bc I see a lot of people seeing his dynamic w/ his mom in a completely different way#he's legit trying so hard to achieve her expectations#he's practically walking on egg shells around her. his entire confidence shatters whenever she comes in.#I wouldn't be surprised if she hurt him during his child hood#idk. I just saw this as some broken adult trying to mend a family relationship by doing terrible things#she's legit the only person he has atp#i don't think he's a “mommas boy” nor do I think this is a “boy mom” situation. this is just a neglectful parent who doesn't care#and the child is desperately trying to get their approval despite already being so low in life#derek danforth#josh hutcherson#📖 not a request/writing#miscellaneous#the beekeeper 2024#tw abuse
