Yh it's unfair to eclipse but in penelopes defense to her this is all a game and none of these characters are real, she literally sees panels and %, in her world she played this game dozens of times and penelope the villainess always died, so I can understand how her fear and desperation may keep her detached and inconsiderate towards the other characters
yeah this isn’t like a diss to penelope, i understand her reasoning well, she’s desperate and doing the best she can with her resources and i respect that. that said i don’t think the way she fucked eclise over should be ignored either. people have a lot of fun crapping on him for being an obsessive creep while fangirling over the gigachad crown prince, and it’s kinda frustrating. it’s also sad that penelope is turns a blind eye to the mess she created instead of taking responsibility, too. (well it’s understandable too on her part, what does one even do in this situation? she has her own problems to top it off. it’s complicated.)
eclise is a tragic character, and i just learned he’s being brainwashed to top it off . i hope he gets a somewhat decent ending and they don’t fully convert him into irredeemable creep so the crown prince can have his suave and charming moments by comparison.
Yh I understand, real or not eclise is being used like some pawn
i kind of feel bad for eclise i’m ngl, penelope plays a huge part as to why he becomes the way he does. she buys him while he’s severely traumatized, then neglects him and only visits him to flirt with him basically. all of this is a perfect mix for an unhealthy obsession and dependability to form.
not saying that she’s a bad person for it ? since she obviously has her reasons, but i just can’t help but feel like she especially fucked him over. since the beginning i thought it would’ve been better if she hadn’t gotten involved so the crown prince got a hold of him instead, where there was hope for normalcy for him. poor dude.
