@pittifulpedant What do u mean unhinged, it’s the most galaxy brain correct meta ever & if you say it a thousand times i’ll clap each and every time!!!! And you are so right we need to match the unhingedness of robbylangdon BC THEY REALLY ARE UNHINGED sometimes i CANNOT believe what i’m seeing
The thing about Robby & Langdon is that they both saw the most idealized version of each other and wanted to BE each other (Robby living vicariously through Langdon what he sees as what his "undamaged" life could have been & Langdon looking at Robby as his future self)
@Mandoucopy yessssssss I’m losing my mind waiting for s3 EXACTLY because of this. Robby and Langdon are coming in for the first time looking at each other as they are & where they stand & yet as u said, love IS still there 🥹
@pittifulpedant “And no matter how hard Robby tries to break it and make it hate him, too - every time he looks at Frank - he sees a version of himself that loves him.” I am crying and banging my head against the wall. You are right and you SHOULD say it
@langdonsalt nod nod nod they are LITERALLY tied to each other bc they cannot separate their own selves from each other& cannot look at one another without seeing their own worst failures and best ideals)
Which is to say that the way they approach & touch each other is inherently tied to how they see themselves--the wound they inflict onto the other is inflicted back to the self & the love they show another is also reflected back
And I think the most fucked up part of it all is that when the said "ideal" is broken (Robby's ideal of Langdon being broken in S1 & Langdon's ideal of Robby being broken in s2)--they see their own wounded selves in each other.
