When I read the short story Bloodchild I was really interested and fascinated by how two species can work together in good and bad way in my opinion. The first species that assists the other one are called the terrans and the other is known as the Tlic however the Tlic co-depends on the terrans. One part of this story that I observed and analyzed was the topic of slavery essentially in this short story. I observed how slavery was needed in this story in order for the Tlic species to survive but in my opinon I feel like the terrans should have recieved something in return for thier services towards the Tlic. I also took away from my own experience with this story that the Tlic need a terran host in order to reproduce their own species and survive. What I found to be quite interesting was how this story depends on the dependecy of another species and the meaning behind that relates to slavery but also survival in my opinion. Furthermore, I found it to be saddening to see that one species is barely surviving while the other or helping and providing assistance. The idea of this story is the role reversal of dependency on one another along with how the terrans give birth to Tlic offspring. In my own personal experience I found it to be interesting on how the Tlic species survives because of the terrans and how they operate and collaborate with the Tlic species.
With this story in particular I observed and took notice of how impactful and meaningful the story is to me and in my opinion it was exciting and interesting to decipher and analyze. The main topic I would want to focus on is KiKi’s training as a new witch and her relationship with other characters as a whole along with how society treats her. Her training in my opinion could have been better in this novel because she has to learn how to do everything on her own as a witch for the most part but she needs more mentorship in my opinion for at least the majority of her training process. The next thing that has my point of view would be her close relationship with some characters and how she is impacted by them. My personal point of view would have to be how is she affecting them since she’s different as a witch and someone who isn’t more normal and how they react to someone who is a witch in training. The next part that highly interests me is how society sees her in their world not hers....
