i don't have any issues that nate died...but the most irrelevant death ffs...not that shows need to follow linear path of karma...but the shit he pulled in s1 & 2 and this is how he dies!? Not that I had any hopes for any sort of legendary ending...but still

ep 5 spoilers

————

Niall has lied or omitted truths to Ruben twice now in order to protect himself in a way that has sent Ruben flying off the handle and murderously attacking someone—for something that Niall himself is also guilty of (Alby for being gay and Benji for sleeping with Mona).

Twice Niall has watched Ruben almost killing someone for reasons that also apply to himself. So in that way, he’s watched Ruben try to kill him twice, by proxy of these two other men, and it’s his fault they’ve suffered Ruben’s violence.

niall kennedy i know what you are (misogynist)

ruben pallister is also such a good example of how a violent man looms so large in the lives of everyone around him. niall, mona, maura, ava, lori. so many conversations between them are about ruben. what did he do now. how do we negate the damage. how do we keep him from getting angry. oh you know how he is. are you okay. did he hurt you. what does he want. which hoops do we have to jump through now to keep him and by extension ourselves out of harm's way. so much of their lives spent trying to fix and repair and control. all these people carrying the responsibility for one man.

the concept of willingly sending yourself to conversion therapy when nearly everyone closest to you already knows you're gay and accepts you—only to have your bank account completely cleaned out by the 'therapist'—all to chase a cure nobody even asked of you

[hereticaas]

it's the way that ruben's abuse towards everyone else is pure rage and violence, but with niall it is always the abuse of a father. punishing niall like he's a disobedient child: clean the house, mow the lawn, show me a picture when you're done so i know you've done it well. i pay for everything you have.

on top of the emasculation and on top of the way he resorts to sexual violence every single time. it's the way he calls him son as much as he calls him brother.

AND the worst part of it is that it's the making of that bond that creates the vehicle for the violence! ruben insists that niall is family (they both do) and so he's allowed to hurt niall in the way that he learned family is allowed to hurt each other. he does love niall, and so he has to love him in the same way that he learned to be loved.

This is like the first time Homelander has been powerless (kinda apart from when he was a baby) and it immediately is so pathetic, no dignity (not that he ever had any) but like not even pretending to be cocky just bc of a few punches...and I just wish this were fleshed out a bit properly...it was just too rushed imo

Shane. He called me Shane. He pulled back so he could see Rozanov’s face, and was shocked to see him staring at him with the same wide-eyed terror that Shane felt. “Ilya,” he said, barely more than a whisper.
