imagine being a therapist and your list of clients include:
- ex girlfriend who you are still in love with asking you what she can do to confess to her current boyfriend
- said current boyfriend who is dating girl you are still in love with carrying a huge keyboard the same height as him into your bedroom
- your dad
- your dad’s adult assistant who lists every reason why your dad sucks, why his music is shit (he is your musical inspiration btw), and asks you (his son) WHY she is in love with him
did anyone else think that when adrien hugged luka after their therapy session, he was also going to give him a lil smooch on the cheek like marinette did or was that just me
Because it's not just the guitar that's broken. It's his worldview, his values, his sense of security. Possibly even a bit of his passion for music. He tried to be the guy who anyone can come to because he gives everyone a second chance, and that chance was taken and crushed. It was turned against him and his friends; someone was trying to use the music he loved to hurt the people he loved. He refused to sell them out to pursue music and overcame the temptation to sell Marinette and Adrien out to Monarch for revenge, but he could get akumatized again.
Luka says that even though he broke his guitar, Bob Roth didn't break him. But in the end, he doesn't feel that it's safe for him to stay in Paris; he has to leave his home and loved ones.
And he's not even the first kid whose life has been uprooted for as long as Monarch is a threat to everyone else. Some day Ladybug and Chat Noir will defeat him, and Ladybug will throw her Lucky Charm and fix things again.
But there are emotional wounds even the magic of the Kwami of creation can't fix. Things that can recover and heal, but still leave scars.
