True true true. Even if MC had gone the friendship route I think she might have not succeeded.(-_- )ﾉ⌒┫ ┻ ┣ ┳
It's the Maid Emma that had been influencing her the whole time and she's a mother figure to Mielle so it would be difficult to separate them and educate Mielle from A to Z. The whole family had a sense of elitism from the very beginning, especially the dad playing favourites.
They hated our Mc and mom from the get-go.
Sigh... Honestly that family gone done ruin themselves. ¯_ಠ_ಠ_/¯
I especially am disgusted by the father's behaviour. (Flashback to when he was so eager to wed Aria off to whomever low rank he can find)
sorry to say but Mielle is still a bitch with the will to hurt others to get her way so...not really just a "puppet". she still not less evil than Aria was just dumber since she can't do shit by herself. and I don't feel bad for her at all, she asks for her end and that's about it. her view on the "poor people" is just twisted and disgusting to say the lest and she willing to murder her own sister to get favors.
was gonna be my comment too today but it ended up being overshadowed when it really just hit home: wooooow. I kind feel bad for mielle and mc. mielle is the most vivid representation of a "puppet" I've seen in quiet some time and its just kind of hit home on this chapter just HOW much of a pure puppet w/no real thoughts of her own she is. and then its like "O man! girl don't even bother w/her! in the end you're just fighting a puppet and when you win....big deal - you beat up a puppet." but its not like if she stops, Mielle will suddenly get an agency of her own and stop too. if she wants to live she has no choice but to accept her role as "puppet slayer". *sigh* Shakespeare wins again.
