One lil detail I noticed about Pomni and Jax’s fight in episode 6 is that Pomni yells at him to fight back. I’m sure this has been pointed out before, but it’s really interesting how, when confronted, Jax can’t actually bring himself to be violent. He provokes everyone constantly, but he is still a prey animal at the end of the day. He’s non-confrontational and absolutely has no idea how to handle Pomni being so direct. Not only does it show that he doesn’t really wanna hurt Pomni, but that he’s scared to. Scared to fuck things up, scared to actively be violent. Violent may be a strong word, but you get the gist. He can’t stand the idea of actually directly harming someone.
Which is funny, cause he ends up hurting people anyways. It’s just that he does it by avoiding them, so he can turn away and ignore their pain and try to outrun his own guilt. Hurting people out of cowardice instead of direct anger. He probably wouldn’t be able to stomach hurting someone directly, cause it would make him confront what an asshole he is. What he’s really doing to the people around him. God. Little freak who can’t face himself in the mirror. Squeezes him like a stress ball.
