the auntie and uncle seem so sweet... i think their love means something deep and sincere
if a child soldier only knows the language of violence when he's afraid... I think he should not be condemned for this.
and even if the auntie only loved scion because she was delusional (and could hold on to dreams...)
i think it was not delusional *to* love scion. i think love is real even if/when it is shared delusion. or if it is delusional *to* love, then I think such a world is a better one to live in
