[LES] I think it's funny how Celine was effectively ghosted at the end of K-Pop Demon Hunters

For those of you who haven't seen K-Pop Demon Hunters, Celine is the adoptive mother/mentor of Rumi, the protagonist of the film.

Rumi is a half-Demon, half-Human Hunter who works with her friends as a K-pop band to fight Demons and protect humanity. A big part of Rumi's character is how her demon half is a mark of shame that Celine encouraged her to cover up, but she eventually learns that she shouldn't be ashamed to be born.

Rumi's shame and upbringing as led a lot of fans to hate Celine. One thing I really found funny about her character is her final scene in the film.

In the scene, it's actually pretty sad; Celine is talking with Rumi, whose Demon marks are enveloping her body after a lifetime of resisting and hiding them. Celine tries to talk to Rumi about how they can continue to hide the scars and gather her friends again, but Rumi doesn't want any of it.

She then says in a demon voice, "If this is what the Holomoon is built on, then I am glad to see it destroyed." Before teleporting away. This is where Rumi then embraces her flaws, reunites with her friends, and defeats the Demons.

One thing that I actually found hilarious is how Celine is never seen or mentioned again. From Celine's perspective, she just saw her adopted daughter go demon mode; for all she knows, the world is destroyed.

Yet, Rumi saved the world, so Celine must be pretty confused right now cause she was preparing for the worst only to see that nothing happened. Like, did Rumi call her to tell Celine that she and the others are alright? I get that Celine was a bad maternal figure, but she still was someone who cared for Rumi. I think she deserved some clarification.

I guess it's implied they contacted each other off-screen, but it is still funny to imagine Rumi just forgetting to call her or chosing not to call her.
