#tenet hand signal (he did it FIRST !!!) so everything he's even done has be solely to go back and relive it - to go back and inspire.
Text
i think the beauty of tenet is that both the protagonist and neil know that it won't last forever but they want it to so desperately that they'll go back in time just to relive the memories
#like they know it won't last forever but it could - they want it to last forever; they're not ready to let go of each other so protag will#send neil back to get him and neil will gladly go because then he can relive everything with the protag and maybe if he hangs on enough#neither of them have to die - but that's not the story; to quote richard sicken 'someone has to leave first. this is a very old story.#there is no other version of this story'. no matter what neil does in the past it doesn't mean he has a future with protag - if anything by#going back he's giving that up so that the protag can create tenet; he has to give everything up to inspire protag to create tenet#he's the reason protag even MADE tenet; he went back and informed the protag of the inverted time & he inspired the protag to create the#tenet hand signal (he did it FIRST !!!) so everything he's even done has be solely to go back and relive it - to go back and inspire.#neil inspired tenet but the protag made it and THAT'S why they can never stay together; someone has to die - neil or the protagonist and#whoever dies first is just dependent on what point of time you're in; in the future it's the protagonist and in the past it's neil#they never overlap; someone is always left behind.#neil#the protagonist#tenet#.txt
