The thoughts are on a low simmer, but I think I'm finally identifying some of my gripes with the finale, and specially fandoms general response. There's this wide belief that Agatha actually kills witches to feed death bodies in exchange for prolonging Nicky's life a bit more, to keep her busy, but the deal was never transactional. Rio GRANTED her more time, the extra bodies must have just been nice. AND Agatha had been killing before Nicky, and even freshly grief stricken, the first thing that forms in her mind is how to use their song to keep killing. Like, don't steal Agatha's thunder. She can be a fabulous, power hungry witch killer (as is her right!) and love her son selfishly, deeply, truly, at the same time. Her every choice cannot be backed up in some way by this love, she can do both! She contains multitudes! For a show that's so explicit at times, if Agatha really killed to keep him alive, it would've said so. I guess don't neuter her character by trying to ascribe noble motivations to her every flaw or whatever is what I'm saying
