#Roman being highly attuned into Connor's frailty manifesting as him making uncomfortable and DEEPLY hurtful jokes is so fucking crazy

[shotbyafool]

oh my god. Kendall and Shiv using Roman and Connor's childhood trauma as weapons to fire back at Logan with (yet not bringing up any of the endless suffering they experienced as a child, or even as an adult, at the hands of their father), with Roman and Connor both immediately shrugging them off ("Bit strong", "Oh, no. I mean, everyone hit me. I'm fucking annoying", "Can we not do a whole show trial here?"). yet Kendall and Shiv being entirely ignorant to Connor and Roman's deafening silences during their fight with their father and letting them both slip away at its conclusion (Connor, to sulk, after his fiancée has just left him at their rehearsal dinner; Roman, to go to their father's, and be offered something which he is incapable of turning down). like if both of them just took a moment to actually process what both Connor and Roman were feeling in that moment, or even at all! during their entire lives!, then they would not have so easily become putty in Logan's hands. yet they did. in having their perfect fight with Logan and in righteously telling him off for the suffering he has caused their baby brother or their eldest, forgotten sibling, Kendall and Shiv drove them further away.
