Like Mother is really such a flawed and still very much a selfish character. She may have provided Lily a more comfortable life. But is it really for her daughter's benefit? Or is she doing all this just to atone for her guilt of her past life?
Her crying self pity party infront of Lily gives me the ick? It felt manipulative and like ma'am. Why do you keep using Lily as a fucking therapist. She's a child. She shouldnt be responsible of taking care of you both in your past drunken stupor or your emotional bullshit.
I'm just glad she's starting to realize how she's the worst. Her efforts of being better are clumsy and clearly she needs a lot more work. It's a refreshing take honestly on the regression mother trope. Where she isn't perfect from the moment she's realized she fucked up. She's probably gonna fumble some more cause yes motherhood is hard
Also enjoying the lil tidbits of the mother and emperor's relationship. They're giving such strong fubu vibes....i do hope that they, until and lily will become one big happy green flag family. It's what lily deserves .
