isaac with someone he loves (an estimation, based on how he was with francoise):
attachment style
anxious and a bit clingy, with a tendency to sacrifice himself. he might seem distant when he’s hiding how weak or hurt he feels, but deep down he wants to be completely connected
he's dependent. his loyalty to francoise looked like love, but it was more about needing her to need him
love language
he shows love by doing things for others, almost compulsively. he might also give physical gifts, especially things he’s made. he doesn't talk about his feelings much.
he’s expressive and shows his feelings more than people expect. (girl we all saw. even tyler was uncomfortable)
he’d probably show affection through quiet, careful touch. he’s very tuned into others' emotions
not emotionally healthy. just emotionally open
and unstable. he might never ask for anything, but give everything. this can create a situation where the other person becomes passive without meaning to
toxic self-erasure
he may try to become whatever the other person wants, even if it hurts him or changes who he is. he's self-destructive, deeply invested in others, and can't manage his grief or guilt
low self-protection
he doesn’t know when to stop giving. he doesn’t set limits for himself and may not realize he should
he mixes up love and sacrifice. he dies for love—twice
he hides how tired or hurt he is, because he wants to stay in the role of protector. he’ll lie to keep that up, even if it kills him
self-worth tied to being useful
he gives because he feels like he has to. being needed makes him feel like he matters. this isn’t just love—it’s how he holds himself together
if the person he loves doesn’t notice or help, he might start to feel invisible—even though he made himself invisible by hiding what he really needs
he’s warm and loving, especially with his sister
he feels emotions strongly and acts on them—love, grief, guilt
he carries deep guilt over francoise's condition and death
so he keeps sacrificing himself because of that guilt
he focuses so much on one person or cause that he forgets himself
he struggles to set emotional boundaries when he's protecting or loyal to someone
