Ainβt no way Mark beaksβs mental heath is stable. Something must have happened to him as a child.
Honestly, a little tragic when you think about it. Mark Beaksβ whole thing is just someone desperately trying to prove theyβre worth something, but doing it all wrong. The bitch needs therapy πππ
I ain't crying, you're crying π
His appearance aged even just a bit shook her to her core. It was just due to losing someone so dear to him, but the change felt like he would one day fade away as well

Summary:
Parents are meant to be caring and protective, shaping children into loving individuals who seek to help others. However, children who grow up without this nurturing guidance, but others who donβt grow up with these parents, develop a sense of mistrust and emotional detachment. Lacking love and support, they build walls around themselves, using power and ambition to protect their vulnerable, hollow inner self, focused more on surviving than on caring for others.

Work Text:
Parents areβ¦well supposed to be caring and kind. Protecting their children in every aspect and possible way. Kids who have or had parents like this grow up to be loving and knowing and they often become heroes, looking to help and care for everyone and everything.
But when other children grow up without that nurturing guidance, they donβt develop the same sense of trust or safety. Instead, carrying the weight of unspoken pain, learning early that the world can be a place of cruelty. Mark beaks learned that lesson at a young ageβhis parents, distant and harsh, never taught him how to love others or how to expect love in return. He built walls, grew cold, and used his ambition and power as a shield, hoping no one would ever see how hollow he truly felt inside. It wasnβt about caring for othersβit was about surviving, about protecting himself from the brokenness that threatened to consume him every time he let his guard down.
Marcus sat on the edge of his bed, staring at the floor, his small hands gripping the edge of the blanket tightly. The house was eerily quiet, the kind of silence that pressed on his chest and made it harder to breathe. He had just overheard his parentsβ shouting match from the hallwayβhis fatherβs voice low but full of venom, his motherβs shrill and desperate, cutting through the thick walls of the house. He didnβt understand most of what was said, but it didnβt matter. He didnβt need to. He knew what it meant.
He wasnβt enough.
His father had said it before, but hearing it again made his heart ache with a pain he couldnβt name. "You're not the son I wanted," his voice echoed in Marcusβs head. Marcus clenched his fists, squeezing his eyes shut as tears threatened to spill. His throat tightened, and he tried to swallow the lump that had formed, but it wouldnβt go away. He didnβt want to cryβhe wasnβt allowed to cry. Thatβs what his father would say. His mother would just roll her eyes. No one cared. No one ever cared.
The floor creaked under the weight of footsteps approaching his door. Marcus quickly wiped his eyes with the back of his hand and turned toward the sound. His mother appeared in the doorway, her expression unreadable but cold, like she was already distancing herself from the boy sitting on the bed.
"Stop acting like a baby," she snapped, crossing her arms over her chest. "We donβt have time for your whining." Her voice was cold and harsh βWe donβt need you here, itβs better if you kill yourselfβ¦no one would careβ
Marcus froze in place upon hearing his mothers words cut through the air. He didnβt reply. He didnβt know what to say. He wasnβt allowed to speak when they were angryβ¦or any time for that matter, he didnβt dare too. So he sat there in silence, his small body trembling as he tried to hold himself together. He wanted so badly to shout, to ask why they didnβt love him the way he saw other parents love their kids. But he knew better than to ask. His voice wasnβt wanted here.
His motherβs gaze lingered on him for a moment before she sighed and turned away, leaving him alone again, trapped in the quiet, with the unspoken weight of being unwanted pressing down on him like a heavy blanket. βNo oneβ¦β the words replaying in his head, he was shaking.
He made a promise to himself that night. He was going to prove them all wrong, everyone who had ever hurt him. Because he was Mark beaks, and no one could stop him. Look out world, Iβll show you all. Iβll be someone you canβt ignore.
βAre you finally proud of me, mom?β¦β
