You know what's crazy about s2 Izzy and Ed’s arcs?
Izzy got exactly what Ed always wanted.
Even though Izzy and the World drilled into him that he couldn't have it.
So Ed believes it. He puts his walls back up and pushes everyone away until all he can hope from them is the sweet release of death.
Ed wants to cry in front of the crew and be held through it. Ed wanted to the ship to be a place he could be his weakest/softest self and still be loved and appreciated for it.
But Izzy crushed his hopes in Episode Ten. He insulted and threatened Edward for daring to be vulnerable with the crew.
But guess what happens to Izzy. He cries, loses a legs, shows the crew the most pathetic parts of himself and he becomes the New Unicorn. Everything Izzy said Edward wasn't allowed to have or do.
Even after Ed's banishment, He never really gets to have a moment like that with anyone on the ship besides Stede. Because the crew is still recovering from The Kraken. Until Izzy dies, that's the only time he cries. But do the crew gather around him and comfort him in his hour of need...
No. They just stand there solemnly.
