something something bellemere and rocinante gave up being marines for their respective adoptive kids, something something abt cinematic parallels and how both were involved w the institution that ruined said kids' lives, something something cycle of violence. is this anything

#kid.text #i will Try to articulate this later #but it's so interesting to see parallels between characters who are created/introduced decades apart in rl time #also how both chose death to save their kids ultimately dooming them to a life of revenge etcetcetc #it's not explicitly stated in the text but it's implied that the war that ruined nojiko n nami's home was a pointless one #that the marines took part in yet didn't conclude leaving surviving soldiers to die #and the place in ruins #like. even if they never physically participated in the flevance genocide/actually killed their parents #they are forever stuck with the reality that the org they've dutifully served destroyed the lives of their kid #does bellemere still proudly talk about her marine life around nojiko #when rocinante talked to sengoku for the final time did he think about the white spots on law's skin and scars on his psyche #like. damn
