couldn't stand the thought of missing out on the rest of our life together.

#why r u mad bc jarmen clowns keep winning ? #cobrakaiedit #cobra kai #carmen diaz #johnny lawrence #s.gif #changed my mind jarmen isnt underdeveloped you're all just haters #because okay listen <- things said before writing a wall of text #johnny's arc w carmen is ALL abt him taking responsibility. he's a man who has run away from literally Everything in the past 30 years. #he's run away from ck/his past w kreese he's run away from his son he's literally on the outskirts of society. #he doesn't. he doesn't CARE enough abt anything to stick w it when it gets hard. #and everyone lets him. no one makes him accountable. #but. for the first time. w miguel. he doesn't want to run away from something. #and i think its so important the carmen and johnny's first Real interaction is when johnny is carrying miguel #home after he got his ass beat. #he's taking that responsibility/that punishment for having failed. #and yeah. he spirals afterwards. self flagellates. and then drags his ass back and promises to be Better. #and he is! he does NOT give up he does not run away ever again #hs fight happens carmen says she never wants to see him again but johnny doesnt take that as a sign to Go Away #instead he helps out however he can while still respecting that boundary #and just ughhhhhhhh that fucking. ''i'll do whatever it takes / i know you would'' exchanges is like. the best way to sum it up #it takes a While for johnny to earn that trust. but he does. #anyways. normal. #long post
