what do u know abt yearning if ur name is not ivan from alien stage

A lot of people are talking about Ivan's hypocrisy with Sua and how he berates her for sacrificing herself for Mizi and becoming a source of trauma for her and then he did the same thing, but there's a heartbreaking perspective on this.

Sua and Mizi loved each other. The love was reciprocal. Sua died KNOWING Mizi loved her. Ivan's dislike of her comes from the fact that she knew damn well what her death would do to the person who loved her and she did it anyway. She KNOWINGLY hurt Mizi in the worst way possible while still claiming to love her.

Ivan? Ivan's been drilled for YEARS that Till DOESN'T love him. His love isn't returned. It's very possible that he just believes that he won't be a source of trauma for Till, because Till doesn't love him. So he can die for him all he wants. Of course, the elephant in the room is that we no longer know what Till thinks of Ivan after he kissed him and sacrificed himself for him, but that's AFTER Ivan is already dead. He had no intentions or expectations that what he did would actually hurt Till. And there is something so unbelievably sad about that.

We are only human, and the gods have fashioned us for love. That is our great glory, and our great tragedy.

The inherent homoeroticism of killing your enemy and immediately regretting it

[faustandfurious]

It’s about rage, it’s about obsession, it’s about making that two-person war your entire raison d’être. It’s about loving and mistaking it for hatred and loving and loving and loving to the point of destruction. His or yours, it doesn’t matter. And you think seeing him dead at your feet will make you feel better, but all you feel is a whole lot of nothing.

— “Friends setting up households or moving away, the people close to you gradually getting older, people parting never to meet again, all these things aren't mishaps, but part of the natural order, like clouds and clear skies, rain and snow, objective and eternal. There's no hidden meaning in them, and excessively wallowing over them is like excessively lamenting the passing of the seasons; there's no sense in it. The world is changing, people are changing, and you yourself are changing, too. Refusing alterations and separations is illogical.” —

— “The living can cling on without letting go; it's a form of emotional sustenance. But there's no sense in blindly clinging to the wrong course.”
