@secondscenario@STimeStone this isn't even a convo, it's you dumping out your points and failing to respond to any of mine despite my OBVIOUS efforts to understand yours. if you want to convince people of your baseless theories please work on your argumentative skills. have a good day.
@secondscenario@STimeStone I can see why you would interpret it that way, and I would have as well had Valencina not been characterized as an obvious narcissist. I do understand the complex relationship between abusers and their victims when it comes to love
@secondscenario@STimeStone i think you missed my entire point ๐ญ i meant that verg's statement didn't have anything to do with valencina's true desires, rather just something he said in the moment.
@secondscenario@STimeStone I see your point here -- im sure she felt a connection to him considering their time together -- but I still wouldn't call it love. do you truly think Valencina snapped because she loved lucio, or because of losing the amount of time and effort put into raising an apprentice?
@secondscenario@STimeStone i understand your perspective, but this part was vergilius poking fun at valencina for asking lucio to get gregor's heart then ending up losing her apprentice... obviously it wouldnt be what she wanted
@STimeStone@secondscenario but again feel free to correct me, this is just what i interpreted from replaying the canto and trying to understand their dynamic
@STimeStone@secondscenario i thought valencina couldnt leave lucio because he was her only remaining chance at getting back to her prime?? i don't think she loved him as a person, but rather an item she had invested far too much into (hence why she was so angry upon his death)
