Hey, man! Iāve noticed that quite a few of out observations, conclusions and opinions about the whole Starco/Tomstar issue coincide, so I wanted to know what you think of mine. Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā
First of all, I think that the thing thatās going to end Tomstar is the fact that Tom is unable to understand her. Iām probably going to be lynched for this, but Tom currently has an unhealthy influence on Star. Allow me to elaborate: From the spoilers of the latest episodes, weāre able to see that Tom and Starās relationship is still going alright, which is good. They rushed the Jarco breakup so Iām glad theyāre putting more time into these two. Anyway, the leaked scene where Tom says that they can make it work and that Star shouldnāt worry about having made things worse. While it is sweet of him to comfort Star, he is causing her character growth to regress. Instead of encouraging her to face the problem and continue fighting to fix it, he essentially tells her that she is overreacting and that things will magically work out, which was her previous mindset that sheās been trying to get rid of and grow. A sweet thing to do, but a folly one. Tom is simply not able to understand what Star seeks to achieve and canāt help her with her goals, which I believe he will realise in the end; he just doesnāt understand her well enough to be by her side and help her fight her problems, unlike Marco, who is ready and willing to do so and has done so numerous times.Ā
Secondly, while I canāt find the image, remember that scene with that monster returning to the sea as the guy tells her that their worlds are too different? When I heard tom sayĀ āIām a monsterā that immediately popped up in my head, as it is a perfect reflection of what they are; they make good friends and Tom definitely has changed and they do like each other, but they are just too different in too many aspects to work out in the end. They undoubtedly like each other, but deep inside, Star knows that her heart still belongs to Marco, which I think Tom will come to realise.
Finally, we have several unresolved issues that I think will play a key part in the resolution of this mess. Remember the preview of Season 3? There was a scene with Marco bursting through the castle doors with a sword. Well, Meteora is being brought to the castle, which will result in chaos, and our boy Marco will be the one to come to the rescue, possibly in the Season 3 finale. Whether Starco will happen or not I canāt determine yet (Iām 99.99% certain that we wonāt get it this season) but it will definitely result in Marco getting the credit he deserves. The second thing is still the issue of Marcoās birthday; heās basically been behaving like a perfect friend and squire to Star, who hasnāt shown very much appreciation. My gutĀ tells me that things will begin to boil once someone confronts her about it and she realises that she forgot his birthday while he, unlike Tom, remembered hers. How she will react after that I have no clue, but it will definitely get her thinking.Ā
Also, Iāve noticed people calling Marco out for behaving like a jerk towards Tom. He has not. Heās literally just pointed out the things Tom has been doing wrong and has casually shrugged them off. If being right makes him a jerk, then he is a jerk, but you canāt sugarcoat the truth.
Anyway, there are some of my thoughts on the matter. If you have the time, feel free to tell me what you think.
