Death Brownie is an illness. The best illness since "spontaneous sonnet fever."

The thing about Yvonne is that she's highly narcissistic and has trouble seeing other people as actual people. To her, Olivia is an object, or at best a pet. But she does care; she doesn't want Olivia to get broken if she can help it, because, you know, possession, but valued one. IDK, her mind is strange.

Thanks for reading!

Twisted and self-involved indeed. Poor Olivia-- and Hugh. The way she sees it as "winning" just says it all. D:

Yeah. Yvonne is geniunely messed up in the head.

Thank you.

Ugh, I hate people who think in terms of 'winning' and 'losing' when it comes to situations like this. Yvonne gives me the creeps and this is no different!

Oooh, Death Brownie! Now I'm intrigued :D

Yvonne is genuinely messed up in the head. Narcissistic to an extreme and has difficulty seeing people as actual people rather than objects to be manipulated. Her life is... well, yes.

It's a pirate-flavored death brownie, even! :D

Thank you!

Dear Yvonne: CHILDREN ARE NOT PRIZES OK. Ugh, what a creep...

Yvonne is definitely wrong in the head. Quite legitimately.

Thanks for reading!

There's no winning, Yvonne!!! When that mentality comes along, there are only losers, and poor Olivia has probably got it the worst. :(

Yvonne's harsh outlook on life is jarring, you did a wonderful job getting it across!

Yeah, Olivia is definitely much better off in the AU where she stays with her father. Yvonne isn't really capable of caring for her emotionally, although she does try to protect her, in some ways. Toughen her up, like. Not that it works (can't really toughen up someone with clinical depression, after all).

Thanks!
