I wanna hear about SovietReich please😭
oh dear god. where do i even start with these two. im going to keep this brief because if i tried to say everything about them it would take me hours.
OKAY SO back in the 00s-10s-20s TR and soviet were childhood friends of sorts. but back then TR was weimar and soviet wasnt soviet yet. soviets the older one by a bit so their friendship was unconventional but they got along really well. they cared so so much about each other. when i say they were basically soulmates i am not kidding. these two were inseparable.
after ww1 and soviet was just starting his life as the ussr and weimar was forced into running a country at such a young age (early teens) soviet became his only positive influence in his life. the most stable rock for him to hold onto. his light in his miserable life. soviet would be the one to encourage him to keep painting. to take time away from work. to just live a little. to be more than just his work. and weimar clinged to him emotionally he was his best friend. a little more than friends in all honesty. but soviet couldnt be with him all the time he had his own duties his own responsibilities. he had to make a name for himself. so they didnt get to be together as much as they shouldve and it pained both of them.
as weimar got older his mental state only worsened and soviet got more and more busy. weimar would only continue to spiral and soviet was completely left out of the loop in what was happening. he wasnt there to pull him out. it was only at the point of no return did soviet realize something was very very wrong.
as TR soviets feelings are complicated. he loves weimar but he cant recognize him in TR anymore. hes change fundamentally and they have to start all over again as strangers. TR had changed too much for their bond to truly carry over but soviets feelings for him for weimar never truly went away. its why he put up with so much. ignored so many red flags. he just wanted to see weimar in TR again. and the worst part is sometimes he did.
TR still clings to him. practically digs his nails into him. but its different now. his paranoia controls him and he cant truly trust soviet like he used to but he refuses to let go of him regardless. hes his best friend. he cant let him leave him.
and then everything falls apart.
soviet never moved on from weimar. he misses him. misses weimar specifically. it haunts him.
im going to fucking kill them with hammers.
