Why is this Fezco?
It just hit me the reason I get so annoyed by the anti-Atreus whingeing I've seen is that like. Chunks of it really do place a lot of the weight and responsibility of Kratos's trauma and pain onto Atreus (he should know better than to pry about these things because of how painful they are, it's not fair for him to get mad because of xyz thing with Kratos) and like. Besties, here's the thing.
Atreus knows none of this (because his father won't tell him anything).
Kratos's secret keeping and trauma have directly impacted Atreus's life in negative ways, including being part of the cause of his childhood chronic illness (which is itself also a cornerstone of Atreus's other issues). Therefore, Atreus does kind of have a right to ask questions?? He's not prying into trauma out of cruelty, he's asking questions about things that DIRECTLY impact him. (His tone was wrong during his bastard period but the questions and frustrations themselves were not, don't @ me.)
He is a child. It is not the responsibility of a child to mollycoddle their parents, mental illness or not. Yes, what Kratos has been through is real and painful but he's the adult parent here. It's HIS responsibility to make sure that his shit doesn't hurt his son. It's not his son's responsibility to handle that shit for him.
I know when it comes to posting about euphoria I focus on fez and lexi ( bc they're the only storyline I gaf about which is sad bc I loved season 1 sm ) but can I just have a "little" discussion ( rant ) about jules.
This girl did not just cry on the fucking floor when she falsely suspected something might ( I emphasis might ) be going on between rue and elliot and go off every 2 minutes saying "I don't like him🥺" and "he wants to fuck you" when rue would consistently be saying they're just friends ( ik rue was lying to her about the drugs but that wasn't what jules was accusing her of ) and then
GO OFF AND MAKEOUT WITH HIM WITH NO REMORSE 3 TIMES WHILE RUE WAS STILL IN THE HOUSE
I'm stunned by that.. genuinely stunned like
I blame elliot just as much as jules but that's a whole other rant.
And this isn't the first time she's pulled this shit. She did the same thing in the first season but we all let that slide ( myself included ) bc her and rue weren't technically together or anything but that doesn't change the fact that talking about having sex with someone to a person you know full well is in love with you is fucked.
I did not like jules in season one she consistently made dumb ass decisions ( ik all the characters in the show do but that still doesn't make it okay yk ) and she played with rues feelings ( rue was also toxic to jules for putting her sobriety and shit on her but doesn't make what jules was doing any better)
So ya didn't fuck with her whatsoever in season one
Then the special episode came out and I then started feeling bad and realised she actually loved rue. So then I started to actually like her tbh.
And I understood and to an extent agreed with everyone defending her up until episode 4. There are no excuses now and I'm not hearing any of ye out LMFAO.
I was so fucking happy when rue got pissed at her in the car I stg
I know in this show there isn't villains/ hero's.
There are teenagers who do good things and bad things. That's it. It's like bojack horseman in that way.
That doesn't justify what jules is doing and doesn't mean people should be going to lengths to defend this girl when she doesn't deserve it.
So there's My rant enjoy
I'm staying up till 4 to watch euphoria and will have no regrets.

“Oh Fez die is sad and all but it makes sense”
No, don’t make any sense. His death don’t advance anyone plot. Rue addiction won’t be cured thanks the death of dear one (literally, her father death caused her problem). Lexi arc won’t be more interesting and dramatic, she already have her own issues that the writers didn’t notice yet.
His death would a nosense tragic event to shock and upset everyone. Don’t came use storytelling to defend this shit creative decision if it happens.
When Mike didn’t say “I love you”, By*ers twisted it to their narrative.

Make it make sense.
Lexi nearly crying when fez wasn't in his seat makes me homicidal xo
i can’t believe people watch the last of us and hear “save who you can save” and “there was one person worth saving. and that’s what i did, i saved him and i protected him. that’s why men like you and me are here” and then somehow get to the season one finale and don’t understand the thesis of the show. you can philosophize back and forth on the good of the one versus the good of the many, but in crisis, in truly awful situations, our selfishness is bravery. it’s brave to refuse to let the harsh world take away what matters to you. joel saved ellie because in a world of unimaginable chaos and tragedy we have to cling to love at all costs. it’s human. it’s natural. it’s illogical, maybe. but it’s what we do for each other. because human beings even in our darkest hours cannot bear to live in the world without love. and god help any motherfuckers that stand in our way.
