Reply to comment by JollyTraveler in Warnings to the wannabe cryptid hunters: So I guess my brother is a serial killer by girl_from_the_crypt

Yeah, you're right. What also threw me off is how Jeremy seemed to think that Cas would just, you know, "get" him. I guess there is a conversation to be had. The thought of my mother being a problematic parent is admittedly hard to stomach, though. I always got a lot of attention and love from her, but I'm starting to think I might have been the only one of her kids who did. Christ, this is all so shitty.

And you just got your soul back too. Old Scratch there is tricky and opportunistic.

As far as your mom goes, it’s hard to just blame her for what’s happened. From what you’ve written it to does sound like she loved you all dearly. But in reality there are only so many hours in the day, and as your moms successor she needed to spend the time with you to teach you what that meant. Sadly that means less time for your siblings and as a kid that’s hard to reconcile. I can see Cas maybe wanting to avoid the topic, but if you asked him directly he might shed some light.

No matter what though, lots of us have shitty upbringings and somehow manage to not be serial killers. Jeremy made his choices and seems to have been deeply disturbed even before he moved out- at this point he has absolutely nothing to lose.

Ah, wait a minute. This may be why he is in envy. Maybe because he is envious of all the love you were getting from your mom and why he is taking out his frustrations on other women? Hmmm...

It seems like you may have been the golden child, and perhaps Jem could have been the scapegoat? I don’t know how your mother interacted with him, but it’s been said you were the favorite. It may fit the bill, but it kinda sorta doesn’t matter anymore. It was what it was. There’s no excuse for what/how Jem is. I’m sorry Fiona. This is all very hard.

When you’re going through hell, keep going!
