i cant get over how it was pat that signaled the beginning of the end. it just had to be because pran could never do it. even if pran was the decision maker all the time, he would never end things with pat, as seen throughout the show. he can't let pat down because pat is all that he has who accepts him, pat who would do everything for him. so pat knew it had to be him to do it, or they'd just be in denial for god knows how long.
and when they did talk about how they both knew they had to go back, they didn't have to expressly say it, because they knew. i love how that too is an ongoing theme between them, how they dont have to say anything but understand it.
that's crazy and fucking sad.
