//Alright folks, this is going to be a longform/multi tweet thread that is the answer to the second question of that hardcore thing I posted earlier.

you& #39;re adverse to talk of that kind of stuff/don& #39;t want to slog through the deeper workings of stuff. Additionally, this is about a fictional character, and has no connection to my own life, or the lives of anyone else.
There will be a summary at the bottom if you& #39;d rather skip.

Now that I have that out of the way, and at the behest of Byleth& #39;s mun, let us add fuel to the fire, and discuss the question of "what is your character& #39;s relationship with their mother."

back when she was mortal is moot. That& #39;s also partially due to how this Electricane isn& #39;t the same Elec that most from before I entered Twitter would be familiar with. Slight timeline shift alongside the whole "X Years Later" thing I have going.
So I know what you& #39;re thinking "how could Elec have trauma if she never knew her mother?"
Well. Well folks. That has to do with how almost a full decade story wise after her mother& #39;s death, a version of her mother that had been possibly created by Elec& #39;s father, the Professor,+
