ik literally no one but me cares about this, but i’d just like to make it known that in my main canon, reilley and alistair r actually Not shit people who victim blame, they’re basically america’s dads, I’m just really bad at writing fluff LMFAO

#raise ur hand if u can only write horrific angst because writing about good family bonds makes it real and causes too many emotions for you!#like main canon ire and scotland believed her 100% and went hunting for that guy’s blood #they dont fuck around about their baby!!!!!#well HMM ok this is getting too socially consciousy but i don’t wanna say they wouldn’t do this for or believe women outside of the family #but its kinda a hard truth that people—especially in the 17 1800s—don’t really extend their anger or sympathy or support to victims or #women in general if they’re not part of their intimate circle—social or family #and its another kinda hard truth that one of the reasons people like that are only able to extend these feelings to family members or #intimates is because they have extended contact with them and are able to actually view them as human which is something they’re not able #to do with people they don’t interact with #lack of empathy? lack of necessity? superiority complex? who knows im not a scientist!#BUT ALL THIS TO SAY #finally getting back on track #i dont wanna say scotland and ireland arent like. decent guys—because they are!!—but they are definitely a reflection of the time and thus #don’t really Support women in a modern sense #its more of a possessive sense ig #you messed with Our family so we’ll mess you up
