Visuals from the show to ignore:

1. Grigory's uniform

- army color

- navy sleeves

- navy or artillery tie

- all decorations are like what???

- even if Grigory was in the military police Ilya would just say "father is army"

(source: army captain buddy, these days a criminal cases lawyer)

Police colonel uniform for reference

2. One of Stalin's Seven Sisters, it's hotel Ukraina, they can't live there lol mb the apartment block behind it yeah but not the hotel itself

I am yet to find a fic that studies the dynamic between Grigory and Andrei/Alexei

It would be hell of a can of worms, you know?

He was sixteen when Irina died. Ilya said Grigory was strict with Irina, but he was a kid. Alexei was about sixteen. He would see it for what it was, abuse/domestic violence and all. I bet he hated his dad's guts.

Imagine that: you hate your parent. And the said parent doesn't even notice or pay attention because you are not the favourite child. The conflict can't break out because you want to scream and the parent just doesn't care.

Still an asshole, mind.

Alexei: I hate my family

Ilya: I hate my family, but I don't feel like I have the right to hate them, and still, I am a fucking tool to them, fuck my life

Grigory: This is fine. I am so respectable. I did such a good job. Good for me.
