#y'all really genuinely hate female characters esp black female characters

[lucienne-thee-librarian]

Its so revealing too about how one sided the sympathy for characters' own trauma and internal lives is for these people because um. I don't know how to tell people this but Lucienne has had to watch her entire home crumble to dust and everyone she loves besides him, either flee or crumble to dust. Her library, her pride and joy, the project she has dedicated MILLENIA if not millions of years of her long lifetime to, is gone. She has been in total isolation, wandering the crumbling ruins of the only home she has ever known for MOST of her existence at this point, for at minimum, a few years now. All of this happens because Dream was held captive. Like, y'all think this wasn't traumatic for her?? Really??

So when he comes back and immediately is like "right, need to go leave to get my stuff, even though I'm still basically at 5% power instead of 1% so anything could happen to me. Again"...yeah, of course she's freaking out internally and overruling his insistence to make sure she isn't stuck there without any way to reach him or know wtf is happening. Yeah, she's "not really listening"...but Lucienne is traumatized too.

But I guess only Dream gets to lash out and act badly. His trauma is the only trauma that counts. Hell, according to ppl who posted and agreed with that take, it's like they only even remember the existence of his trauma in the first place in their minds. Sure. Fine. Whatever. Cool

this is all reminding me of that post on here about lucienne not respecting dream’s boundaries re: having a new raven. as though she wasn’t 100% in the right and faultless and he wasn’t being a little bitch. this really does happen every time huh
