Episode 5 spoilers!
Back in my thoughts again, you know the drill. A bit lengthy!!
I cannot stop thinking about this scene—how Steven clearly remembers that this was his room,
Tumblr media
And how he remembers the exact thing he said during this part of the scene, which proves that he was, in fact, in control for at least a couple seconds.
Tumblr media
BUT. He doesn’t remember anything from this moment forward. That’s why he wanted to see what their mother did to them, and that’s why Marc was set on getting him out of the room before he saw something that would severely taint his memories and what he knew of their childhood. At the same time, Marc knows EXACTLY what happened.
Tumblr media
I’m positive that Steven dissociated at that moment and Marc took over. In general, he didn’t want Steven to remember what truly happened. It’s his way of making up to Randall/RoRo, I would like to believe. He treats Steven like the younger brother that he lost when he was a child. The one who loved drawing the one finned fish. The one who was always eager for adventure. The one who was screaming for help back in the cave.
Remember? His mother explicitly stated:
“Marc, what do you do? Keep an eye on your brother, okay?” And Marc is set on fulfilling that promise to Steven.
Tumblr media
Marc let Steven keep all the good memories, while he himself lived through all of the bad ones, just so that he could protect him from getting hurt and feeling pain. Steven, his alter, who he considers to be his little brother.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
That’s the reason why Marc was so adamant about simply telling Steven what had happened in that room at the top of the flight of stairs, so Steven wouldn’t have to watch the memory play out in front of him. Seeing what happened would definitely hurt more than just knowing what happened. By telling Steven himself, he would have control over what he would reveal to him, and how he would tell him.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
That’s why Marc’s first thought when waking up in the Asylum was Steven. That’s why Marc never complained about fronting right after Steven was pierced by the weapons back in Mogart’s. That’s why Marc probably set up a line for Steven to contact “his mother”, and why Marc replaced Gus with another fish. That’s why Marc didn’t want Steven finding out about him in the first place.
Marc spent most of his life protecting and saving Steven the way he wished he could’ve protected and saved Randall. I am literally bawling over this.
Also ending this with another appreciation for Oscar Isaac because he’s a damn legend for the breathtaking portrayal of Steven AND Marc. He better earn awards for this series or I will riot.

Do you know what I love about moon knight? (Many things, yes but-)
The way that when Marc was questioning all of his sanity, questioning if he'd ever worked or ever met an egyptian god, questioning if everything that happened in the last decade was real, questioning everything he saw- He never questioned Steven. No Steven is there and he is real. They've been together since they are children, he survived because he knew he wasn't alone, he knew Steven is real, even if others probably have told him otherwise.
I think about that a lot.
And I want someone to love me as Marc loves Steven, a love so strong and real that against all odds, even if Steven being real sounds impossible Marc doesn't lose faith. Because a love that strong must be real

The way Marc backs away from her although she’s just a memory but Steven doesn’t is breaking my fucking heart

Episode 5 spoilers!!
Just in my thoughts again!! I haven’t seen anyone talk about this, but this might be a long post again idk
Can we talk about how Randall’s nickname is RoRo, and that day they went into the cave, he specifically said that he wanted to play Rosser,
Tumblr media
Which means that Marc would be Dr. Steven Grant? So one of Marc’s last memories of Randall was his little brother calling him Dr. Grant?
Tumblr media
Dr. Grant. Doctor STEVEN GRANT. The one who protects Rosser and leads him throughout their expeditions? The one who assures Rosser that nothing could hurt him?
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Marc Spector dissociated, and Steven Grant became his alter due to the trauma Marc went through with his past and with his mother.
“When danger is near, Steven Grant has no fear.”
Tumblr media
Steven Grant, one of his idols from Tomb Buster. It was also one of the last good memories he had of his brother, Randall, who had chosen to call himself “Rosser” before everything in the cave took place. 
In addition, I would also like to point out a couple little details that may have slipped past anyone:
Tumblr media
“He drew the fish with only one fin.” When Marc said this line, it was almost implied that this was not the first time Randall had drawn this, and in this scene?
Tumblr media
Look behind Steven. Marc has one of Randall’s drawings of the “fish with only one fin”. It’s definitely a different one, since the drawing he has framed on his bedroom wall hasn’t been colored in completely, unlike the one Randall was drawing on the picnic table.
Marc loves his little brother so much :(((
