--> '''Lena:''' How dare you? After all you did, how ''dare'' you claim to have gotten off worse?\\
'''Magica:''' You're living in a mansion, Lena. By definition-\\
'''Lena:''' ''YOU RUINED MY LIFE!'' Do you have any idea what you did to me? You...were...''abusive''. The things you did to me, I'll spend my whole life getting away from. Every other word out of your mouth was either a negative scream against me, tearing down my my will and confidence, or it was manipulative, something to get me to dance to your tune in the vain hopes of the smallest amount of affection. You ''used'' me. You manipulated, belittled, insulted, and gaslit me. You stole my freaking body from me! I was a child! I wanted someone to love me, but you never gave me even an ounce of care and compassion. I was nothing to you, just a tool! ''(at this point, Lena starts to tear up)'' I had to unlearn so much of what you programmed into me, and it's been some of the hardest things I've ever done. I had to learn that could be a safe place, that family isn't suppose to yell and berate you, that how I treated was ''not normal''. I catch myself thinking about this or that awful thing, things about myself I ''know'' to be wrong but they still bubble up from deep inside without warning. I have anxiety and sometimes depression. I have trouble getting out of bed in the morning and I sometimes have to slip away to be alone, reorient my brain after too much is going on around me. And my nightmares...great Gaia, my nightmares! A lot of them are mostly shock value now, but there have been some nights where I am too keyed up from them that I can't go back to sleep. I just something something fluffy, usually Skadi, and sit by the window looking at the stars until morning. It's not healthy, I know it's not, but that's what it is!\\
''(Lena turns to Magica with hateful fury in her eyes)''\\
And the worst part about all this is that I can barely talk about what's bothering me sometimes. Not to Webby, not to the boys, not to Scrooge or Beakley or Doc Van Horn. Della gets some of it, but I still feel like the words won't come. And right now, it's all spilling out , and it's to '''''you'''''. And now you have the gall to stand there like I'm the one at fault? Bullshit lady! You tried me like scum, tore me apart, and tried to rebuilt me into a tin toy! I'm not going to apologize for striking back at an abuser!\\
'''Magica:''' I was-\\
'''Lena:''' ''BEING A HEINOUS BITCH!'' That's all you ever do! You're a pile of toxic sludge in the shape of a duck and your every action makes people miserable! But I got away. I still have scars, but I found a place where I can be safe and warm and loved and doesn't that just burn you up inside? That despite all you did to me, all those years of ''pretending'' to be family, that I found something better? That I survived your best efforts and there isn't a damn thing you can do about it?

* AndIMustScream: The story doesn't spare any details about how much Lena suffered while Magica was possessing her, noting that while Magica might not feel the strain she's placing Lena's body under, Lena can and she's utterly miserable, yet can't do anything about it.
* DeniedFoodAsPunishment: Used in a roundabout way. Since Magica never ate much while she was alive, she naturally doesn't eat much while she's in Lena's body, something that Lena suffers from the effects of.

These examples of Surprisingly Realistic Outcome seem to violate at least one of these rules, which disqualifies them: No character reactions (characters get angry, don't forgive, don't change their personality instantly, etc.); Too fantastical (depends on the properties of magic, powers, sci-fi tech, monsters, etc.); Not surprising (a character was warned about the outcome, it's used to provide Karma or An Aesop, or it simply follows normal conventions for this genre or medium); Plot happens (the example only describes an event, but not why audiences would expect a different, unrealistic outcome); Not an outcome (a character just explains why something wouldn't work as expected); More of a Deconstruction (the event has major, lasting effects on the plot, make something more realistic, but not completely realistic, or a parody/fanwork applies realistic consequences to the events of a different work); or fits better under a different trope. See the trope's definition for more details. If you believe a removal was a mistake, please bring it up in the cleanup thread
