This moment. This moment is here is where Maleficent proves herself to be one of the best parents on the show. Because she has every reason to hate them, to want to hurt them, to not trust them after they did such a horrific thing to her and to her innocent child…and yet here she is. Standing before them. Not intimidating. Not threatening. Pleading. Making herself vulnerable to the very people that led to this situation to begin with. Because there is a a chance that they can help her daughter. And helping her daughter, easing her suffering, making sure she is okay is all that matters to Maleficent. Lily is everything to her. And she will do whatever it takes to find her and have a chance at happiness together. Even let go of her anger towards the people responsible. Even forgive the unforgivable.
Because that’s what a good parent does.
