@marti7oj@r0zano This is such a good point cause in the book Ilya was really hiding his depression whereas from the shoot pics we’ve seen, it’s like how could everyone not have known that Ilya was depressed when he’s a stereotypical poster boy for depression red flags
It’s bc RR favors Ilya. It’s like if you have two nieces and your sibling heavily favors one of them, you’re gonna want to give extra candies and gifts to the one that isn’t loved as much, even if you love them both immensely and equally. It can become subconscious for some fans.
A major reason I don’t like Troy is because I’m OVER this character type of “man is homophobic and mean but it’s bc he’s secretly gay so poor him”… WASHED. Shane was secretly gay and wasn’t mean. Troy, and others alike, still hurt people. It’s not an excuse to be harmful
