Very funny to me that the fight that caused Silas to snap and permanently destroy Perish’s brain was triggered by Elish triggering Silas by implying that their family could be in any way incestuous. Reading this fight again is like ohhh my god Perish is just so intentionally antagonistic towards Silas when he knows the reaction he’s gonna get & Silas is just so fucked in the head he can’t handle hearing people stating plainly that his plans for his chimera family are really weird. These guys torturekilling each other is par for the course I just think it’s sad Perish got his brain raped forever over the incest discourse (I know it was probably really because of perish threatening the lab/sky clone but the incestina is the original argument these guys just love dramatic escalation) but thinking about it it would have definitely happened anyway even if not during this particular fight. Perish was not under Silas’s control and he couldn’t have that at all. He needed a way to control Perish & since he can’t kill him & still needs his smarts for making Sky clones…..lobotomy it is.
