PLEASE DON’T TALK TO ME ABOUT THIS MOVIE, IT IS A VERY SENSITIVE TOPIC 😭 ray is me, i am her. i can see myself sm in ray when i was younger. i also had a parent like hers, maybe not in the same way but they were definitely absent throughout my whole childhood life. i was like her too. i was an angry child who tries to acts like an adult, i bottle things up alot, and i never wanted someone to see me vulnerable — because when you are left alone to figure things out for most of your life, you won’t expect an adult to help you out but yourself hwuwhwua. and ray herself is also so used to accepting a harsh world that she’s frightened to find a new one, because it’s more easy to expect how harsh the world can be. and molly, molly may seems like the most selfish person there is, just because she is not into growing up. but i do believe that she is actually quite selfless, in a way. not in the way that she’s the most saint in the world but in the way that she rarely shows any concern for herself as an individual. perhaps it’s because she is so scared of being on her own, but it might just be because she is veryyy social, she is always surrounded by so many people. and i really love how realistic her character is, you can see most of the starting movie that she’s very chaotic, she’s also very scared to get out of her own bubble because that’s what she only knows — to be so comfortable in a sort of pain that you’re too scared to try anything new. they are very similar but different, in a way. and that’s okay.
