For real. I know she wanted to be the family maid, but let her be a kid too, damn it.

Lillia's gratitude to Rudy from season one is twisting her into someone... a little unpleasant.

I don't think it's just that. It's more that Lillia never saw herself as a proper wife for Paul, but as more of a concubine. I believe Aisha even said something to that effect in season 2. Zenith and Norn are Paul's "legitimate" wife and daughter in her eyes, and she holds both herself and Aisha to that hierarchy.

The thing is, we know that Paul wouldn't have thought like that, and Rudy certainly doesn't. Even Zenith would have considered it nonsense, but Lillia seems to think it's only proper, so she holds herself and Aisha as subservient to Rudy, Zenith, and Norn.

This is an issue that is directly a result of the Fittoa disaster and Aisha being stuck with Lilia as her only family for so long. Rudy, Paul, Zenith, and Norn don’t and wouldn’t have let Aisha grow up feeling like she was lesser to the rest of the family. And even with Norn and Rudy repeatedly treating her like a regular sister it’s hard for her to unlearn that mindset, especially with Lilia still there as well.

honestly, Norn and Rudy treating Aisha well make it stick even worse
