One thing I haven’t seen anyone post about yet is the “should’ve used our left hand” conversation, and it is so so so important to me.

It’s very rare that we get any verbal confirmation that John—who for all intents and purposes only exists in a meaningful physical capacity through Arthur’s left hand—interacts with the world at all unless it’s in dire circumstances where he has to, like the mines in Addison.

We don’t hear him say “let me get that” or anything active almost ever, and we have to infer that maybe he’s moving around, touching things, gesticulating, guiding Arthur in some small way when he says “here!” but it’s never really said explicitly that he touches things idly sometimes. He usually only helps Arthur, like holding the torch, and doesn’t do much for himself. And yeah, perhaps that would be clunky writing, but it bothered me for a little while. I’ve always wanted to see him interact with the world more, touch more things, take a little initiative with the body they’re sharing, even if for practical reasons, but if it’s important to him that Arthur has some semblance in control? If he is considering Arthur’s feelings constantly by tamping down the urge to find and seek and know for himself, increasing that sense of isolation? If he’s trying even harder now to take up less space, to make himself small, in order to assuage the prickling guilt he feels for threatening taking that control back from Arthur? If he’s going to do his fucking damnedest to resist the urge to manifest even when the power is right there at his fingertips? Well, then that’s fucking delicious.

malevolent s5 starting with dialogue that's roughly just "man that kayne guy sure is fucked up, huh?" "john i want another divorce"

[arthur-lesters-right-arm]

I think this divorce will finally be the one where Arthur demeaningly refers to John as Johnathan

episode 41 really put into perspective john's relationship with oscar to me,

john almost lost himself in the dark world, he had to resort back to his old ways, he refused to forget arthur, arthurs his only friend, his beacon of morality, he'll never forget him and he'll always care about him.

and then he comes back. he gets to be with arthur, just those two together how he liked it. arthur is losing his mind currently, and john has to bring him back. he can't let arthur slip the way he did. he loves arthur and he doesn't ever want to lose him.

and then they go to new york

arthur, after only a couple days of having john back, start to ignore him for a new friend. oscar. john went through so much sacrifice to never forget arthur. john forgot himself before he forgets arthur. but to john, arthurs seemingly forgotten about him after only a couple days. and that must be fucking gut wrenching to experience.

of course john would hate oscar, of course, being so used to his old ways, he'd slip back into them to try to get his arthur back. he just wants to be happy with his friend. his only friend.
