[vincent-frankenstein]

who was that. that was not Janus who was that

#watched the new asides! hahahahahahaha i have thoughts #mostly positive which is not what i was expecting! i thought they felt in character for the most part #i enjoyed it #but that. was not Janus #youre telling me the master of deception the literal EMBODIMENT of deceit #would get SO drunk around people he quite frankly should not trust yet his arc has not gone that far #that he is saying everything on his mind and being extremely loose lipped #no. absolutely not #i feel like thomas was aiming a gun labeled /reduce character to alcoholism joke/ at logan and last second swiveled and shot janus #point fuckin blank #and the rest of the episode was actually good!!! it was fun!!!!!!! except for the weird drunk cardboard cutout they had standing #where janus should be #for a character like janus alcohol - if its gonna be used at all - should be used as like . a sign of character growth #a signifier of trust . he trusts the others enough to drop those walls . but that is NOT a point we should have hit now #he had a breakthrough with patton but roman hates him virgil hates him #that is not a situation where the embodiment of self preservation js gonna go welp! time to get blackout drunk! #im so . i just . come ON man #roman would get drunk as shit . at thjs point in his arc that even makes sense!!! #taking a bit of liquid confidence when maybe hes not feeling much of his own #though where roman stands in his arc after four entire years of waiting is . fuckin debatable i guess #anyway in conclusion that was not janus . thank you for coming to my ted talk #ts crit #ts critical #ts spoilers
