Its So Fascinating Bc Punisher S1 Really Clearly Lays Out How Frank Views Relationships And It Is Insane.

its so fascinating bc punisher s1 really clearly lays out how frank views relationships and it is insane. he’s really dismissive of the idea of casual relationships (you and your women to billy) so someone either is family (thus ensuring full and eternal commitment) or there is no romantic interest. this is why the idea of doing anything with sarah is so repugnant to him (he clearly says to david i would only ever be with my wife thats why i dont want your wife). which is why when he clearly does have romantic feelings for karen even though they arent in a romantic relationship he categorizes her as wife/family/etc. of course she has no idea that he feels this way as he never expresses it to her (except to say my family is gone which is why you must be safe which is in his eyes a sort of confession (at least of his ideology)). and hes so consumed with vengeance and admittedly terrified of returning home from war (and with everything we see of him home would be family which canonically is karen) that he is completely unwilling to be around her unless its to keep her safe for some future he hasnt even allowed himself to imagine. and its aggravating bc karen! like always! believes she is the one who cares the most! and why would she suspect hes telling ppl shes his wife when theyve never even kissed! bc thats insane!

Does anybody else track their life though a series of obsessions? Like “ah yes, i remember that happening, i was obsessing over Star Gate Atlantis at the time,” or, “this was during my Supernatural era.” I can map out my whole life in this way.

Woll and Bernthal have more chemistry in a few glances across the room than most Marvel movies do with full love stories and kissing.

just rewatched s2ep11 of Punisher and i’m deadass confused how Karen and Frank aren’t gonna end up together. they have to. there’s no other choice. Karen asked him to “make it mean something” that she came to visit him. she was willing to throw her entire life away to help him and he couldn’t let her. she told him to choose to LOVE SOMEONE instead of the war. she begged him to love her. he practically admitted he did but couldn’t do a thing about it. they almost kissed!! and they’re not gonna be endgame??
