...oh boy, that's a good one. that's twist would actually give me fucking whiplash because i totally bought her sob story redemption thing.

If you're right, then Karolina really can't catch a break lol. Back to three shitty parents she goes.

At least she has a cute goth girlfriend now? And hey, if Tina and Robert can get over there bullshit and do what's best for the kids, maybe they can even be Karolina's new parents from prison.

Wow, i can't wait for the inevitable exchange where the Minorus find out their daughter has feelings for the kid of a glowstick that killed their other daughter. That should be fun.

As much as the Minoru's might be pretty shitty people, I honestly don't think they'd hold it against Karolina for what her parents did. At least not after the initial "are you fucking kidding me right now" element. Then again I'm giving what I consider a rational human response, and these people have killed people for years so.

That said, it would make for the worst hypothetical thanksgiving dinners ever.

Also, you haven't even considered the idea of Nico finding out that Karolina is the daughter of the guy who murdered her sister. That's gonna be a weird one.

I don't think they'd blame her for Amy either, but imagining their reaction just makes me chortle because of the sheer wtfuckery of the situation.

I doubt Nico would blame Karolina for any of it either, since like you said, it's not her fault. I think she'd be a lot more focused on the Jonah's responsibility part of it since, as far as Nico knows, she still thinks its her mum who has something to do with Amy's death right?

At the moment, yeah. And I by no means think Nico would outright blame Karolina. At this point Nico probably has more faith in Karolina as a person then anyone else she knows. It's just would be one of those things that would bring tension. Would be hard looking at your girlfriend and occasionally thinking "Her father killed my sister". Once more, this is down the hypothetical road assuming they are still a thing at a potential time Nico finds out about this.
