She's your mother.
You don't love her.
Your mother is tall, taller than you could ever imagine being. The only thing taller than your mother is the walls and columns of the place you live and train. Ragnarok says he could be taller than your mother if you weren't holding him back. You don't know how to stop holding him back.
Your mother is strong, stronger than you could ever imagine being. There isn't anything stronger than your mother. Ragnarok says he could be stronger than your mother if you weren't holding him back. You don't know how to stop holding him back.
She's your mother.
You don't love her.
You aren't sure what that's supposed to feel like. You've never heard your mother talk about it. Ragnarok says your mother doesn't love anything, either.
You're afraid of her, you think. She says you tremble just like a little rabbit. You don't think she loves the rabbits. Ragnarok doesn't love the rabbits, either.
You think you might be one of the rabbits.

if a character means enough to me i will truly never stop thinking about them. i just retire them into a little back room in my brain and periodically bring them out to stare at them under a little light

I remember discussing Tintin casting choices with a friend from Germany and remarked how it was odd he often has an English accent in adaptations rather than a Belgian one, and my friend just replied "that's because Tintin gives incredibly strong English boy energy (derogatory)"
Here in the UK there's a lot of weird classism tied into accents. Today accent diversity and representation in broadcasting is actively pursued but in Tintin's time there certainly was a preferred accent to have.
imagine this exchange happens between pages 28-29 in The Crab with the Golden Claws
