#idk im just kind of losing it over the fact that they wouldn't really inherently know or understand the concept of parental love

bro ngl i'm in my fuckin feelings about toadsworth like. they literally fundamentally don't know what they're doing. the toads sporeate, their species doesn't raise its young. toads don't have parents. toadsworth doesn't know how to be a parent, but they know that even though full-grown boo and bowser are twice and three times their size, sometimes they look at them and see the little boys they once held in their arms. no matter how strong bowser is, how ruthless boo is, they look at them and sometimes just see something tiny and helpless and precious. something that needs protection. is this how human and koopa parents feel? is it always this terrifying?
