why is your first mate so small and angry and in need of love, if he's not supposed to be picked up and cuddled??? why is he your unicorn if you're not going to gently drag him into your relationship and smooch him all over??? All feat. izzy's ass because it's important to me, personally <3

also i truly and utterly hate how some people react to izzy’s death by saying stuff like “people die all the time” “in real life we are not given time to mourn” when this is the stupidest pirate show ever. buttons turned into a fucking seagull and izzy died by a shot to somewhere previously established wouldn’t be a reason for death? the whole crew came to love izzy so much but none of them even mentioned his name after the funeral? i know the limits of real life and they are never included in this show. so why must they now? why must they be used to fuck up such a perfect character arc?
death comes anyways, but izzy’s arc did not have to end in death. izzy’s arc showed there is healing and love and friendship and then fucked it all up by killing him off. i will never shut up about how badly handled the ending of this season was.

I've started seeing more and more people talk about how everyone is operating without the context of Izzy's actions in s1e10 and how that needs to come out if they actually want to stick the landing for this season, and I'm starting to wonder if the anxiety around that is coming from a similar place as the queerbaiting anxiety from season one?
Like the idea that we're so used to seeing the Izzys of the world get off easier than they otherwise might? I know that some people will immediately be like "he's miserable and lost a leg" but ignoring the way the show handles physical vs emotional violence (or that Izzy fucked around and found out), there's retribution and there's atonement. You can't truly atone without doing it for the right reasons, and that can't happen without truth. Kicking Ed while he was down is something Izzy did from a queerphobic* place and I can't help but think about that when I'm also thinking about Izzy's hypothetical redemption arc for this season.
Intellectually I trust the team that gave us season 1 not to fumble the bag so badly as to not bring this sort of reckoning to Izzy eventually, but my limbic system hasn't gotten the message just yet. Here's hoping it's on the horizon somewhere, not just because it seems narratively important but also because I'd really love it if Izzy stopped taking up so much space.
*I'm not interesting in having the "iS iZzY hOmOpHoBiC" argument again so take that elsewhere please

"killing off izzy after he went through all this growth and finally got to be happy means all that healing was for nothing"
goddamn that is a bleak way to look at life. we all die, man. healing is still worth the effort.

After Izzy tried to hide the gunshot wound he got from Ricky while they were battling their way off the beach, the crew make the executive decision that he can't be trusted to tell them when he's injured.
Obviously, the only answer is for them to gently strip Izzy down to his smalls and check him over for damage after every. Single. Raid.
Izzy would yell at them. Should yell at them. But he's a touch-starved little gremlin at heart and - ooooh, soft gentle touches on his bare skin from people he actually trusts? Man is MELTING.
