of course rosa who is simultaneously straddles both sides of the abuser/abused dichotomy would be the one to voice this. if adult is a perpetrator and a child is a victim, what does that make someone like rosa?

#umineko liveblog #ep1 reread #in several ways that border is an imposition of violence unto itself #to be a child is to be defined by your powerlessness. to be an easy target #which is a bleaker contrast to the other child/adult dichotomy discussed earlier #where child and adult are stand in terms for one's proximity to belief in magic #the fantastical is subsumed by the violent #so then i guess in this case adulthood is when you identify childhood by the violence and not by the magic #rosa is as much a victim as maria in some ways but their realities of victimhood are starkly different
