as we get closer to the next toa book, I WOULD LIKE TO STRESS HOW BADLY WE NEED A GOOD LIPER REUNION without a judo flip, without leo being punched or kicked or yelled at
CAN I PLEASE GET AN EMOTIONAL REUNION WHERE PIPER JUST HOLDS HIM FOR AWHILE SO LEO CAN KNOW HE’S LOVED BY SOMEONE, SO THAT HE KNOWS SOMEONE GENUINELY MISSED HIM WHILE HE WAS GONE so that after everything this poor little teenage boy has been through, after all the mistake he’s made, he will always know that he has piper to come home to
because i really think leo deserves that
yessss yes yes yes.
because you know what sometimes we don’t need the fucking humor factor we need FAMILY reuniting. because liper is FAMILY.
when pipers dad shipped her off to nevada and jane kept her away from him, when she was bullied by isabelle and surrounded by racist comments, before the mist version of jason, leo was all she had.
when social workers forced leo to nevada, when he had nightmares of his mother dying because of him, when all he could see was the faces of every foster family that didn’t work out, piper was all he had.
they were family. they needed each other. feeling like leo died because of her would have killed piper. so excuse me if i dont see their reunion as something “humorous”. something with judo flips and shouts and punches.
give me a reunion with piper holding onto leo tight enough that it feels like they’ll never be apart again. give me tears running down their faces, piper murmuring “i thought you were never coming back” and leo assuring her that yes he’s back yes this is real and no he’s never leaving her again because piper is home and he loves her and she’s crying and smiling and whispering i love you.
platonic love takes a step back from romantic love wayyy too often and it shouldn’t because this moment should have been soft and beautiful not harsh and “funny”. not entertaining to young kids who think its okay to abuse friends.
it’s not. it’s really really not and i only wish the liper reunion was as beautiful as it could have been
