In "Obsidian," Jennifer L. Armentrout presents a scene where one character describes another in a rather demeaning way. The character's comment, suggesting that the other looks very young—like a doll with large, empty eyes—implies a lack of maturity and emotional depth. This comparison paints a picture of innocence or naivety, hinting that the person being addressed may not be taken seriously or could be underestimated. This exchange highlights the themes of perception and judgment based on appearance. The use of the doll metaphor emphasizes the notion of superficiality and how first impressions often influence interpersonal dynamics. Overall, the dialogue serves to develop character relationships and introduce underlying tensions in the storyline.
