Oh my god, I’m gonna cry

I’m actually gonna cry, they’ve grown so much and Hunter’s has even picked up on some of Darius’s mannerism.

The hand on his hip, the tilt of his head, even his smile looks more like Darius’s. THAT boy is his SON!

"Luz has parallels with Philip so Hunter is her brother 🥺"

Siblings sacrificing themselves to protecting other, falling into water, then getting saved by their sibling's parent and being gifted powers via absorbing the last of a dying friend’s life energy

Parallels.

That same look. Disbelief, disgust, betrayal. Both human residents of the boiling isles ultimately couldn't forgive Belos, and with good reason. His efforts to 'save' humanity only resulted in his fellow humans hating him.

His responses to both of them are the same. Deflecting blame, twisting it to be on the witches, still ever evading the consequences of his own actions. He acts like both a victim and a hero, contradicting himself and desperately grasping at any excuse to believe that he's the good guy in this story. "I tried to save your soul, it's your fault this all happened" and "We're human, we're better than this". Masterful manipulation that's now easy for these two to spot. His facade is broken. 👏

Belos is a phenomenal villain and seeing the people he's hurt not say anything to him but instead give him this look is so powerful.

They didn't need to say anything. The glare was enough to make him squirm, panic and frantically scramble to defend himself. He doesn't have power over them anymore, nor can he hide from his actions. He's faced with a look that acknowledges his wrongdoings, forcing him to come face to face with them despite doing all he could to avoid them. Despite destroying the fonder memories of his brother, burning out his face to justify killing him. ('Hollowing' out his mind, if you will.) Despite every instance of him running from his past. All that comes back with this look.

He can't control his fellow humans anymore, he can't convince them and he certainly cant be seen positively or loved by them. In one look, he's lost.

belos's 'curse'+ jean-luc

belos’s curse is closely connected to jean luc

to make it clear, its obvious collector DIDNT teach him this curse, due to how we saw the carvings before he met collector

he must have learned this magic from the titan itself

but we know that the titan is already dead, and cannot speak to those living, which is where jean-luc + the rest of the golems come in

in 2x3 when we see jean luc’s fighting style as well as how their overall flexibility (?) affects them

its very simular to belos’s condition, although, since he is human, he has some of power to switch between

they can also extend their limbs in a very belos like fashion, simular to when belos was punching the wall in and scratched hunter (2x6)

also in 2x3 we can see how every golem (?) was disabled/broken, at the exception of jean-luc

its likely they were waiting in kings egg room, which could explain why they were the only one preserved, since it was likely belos couldn't reach such a high place

had he been able to get there, he probably would'v destroyed the egg as well

my guess as to why the others were destroyed is that belos found that island, traveled there, and studied the magic of the working golems to inflict upon himself, taking them apart/destroying them in the process

given as to how he was already combining glyphs

all it wouldv taken was for him to find the right combination and copy it down to carve later
