Y’all ever notice how the moral of Undertale is that children who are hit by adults shouldn’t fight back? Because I noticed it, and I wonder if it’s moralised passivity in the queer community, thus contributing to the abuse problem we have.
The canonical story indicates that she’s in the wrong for obstructing the child’s liberty. She’s a good example of a villain with misguided motivations.

Yeah, I killed that asshole. I beat her up, then offered her mercy. She refused to stand down and let Me leave, so I killed her.

I heard you can give her mercy by repeatedly pressing the “spare” button and dodging her attacks, but at that point, she doesn’t deserve it. Child-hitting kidnapper.

She actually will never finish the fight against you. You don’t have to dodge her attacks at a certain point because she curves them to intentionally miss. You’re of course welcome to interpret the game however you wish.
That’s not obvious when you’re a little kid who’s being attacked by someone bigger and older than you. When you’re a small child, all you know is that this woman is hitting you and it hurts.

You would not survive Rome.

It’s either beat the shit out of that little shit, a little. Or someone else will beat them to death later.
