Comment on Mother Dearest

  1. Thank you so much for your thoughtful comment! To answer your question - his ghostly obsession is going to come into play a few times throughout the story as he works to try and find more autonomy from it. Basically, it’s supposed to be an allegory for a trauma background, and him working to sit through the discomfort of not doing as he feels he needs to.

    Hope that answers your query, let me know if you want to know anything else :)

    1. That’s the best way I’ve seen someone approach that trope in a long time. Most people I’ve seen use it as a way to force Danny into a role they want rather than Danny choosing his path. I’m looking forward to how you implement your Man vs Self conflict. Just another reason to subscribe.

      Thanks for answering.
