#that and how alan mentions how con will always come back to the siblings despite not trusting them bc they're all he has left

[comfycel]

i think the reason i am not even mad at the sibs for forgetting connor during the phonecall is because we know how the golden trio are desperate for any bit of affection from their father they're in an endless competition to get any crumb of anything and logan kinda has that with them in his very toxic messed up way (like when he was miserable without them during his birthday)

con does but in a very one-sided way like he loves his father and his siblings but he knows that love isn't reciprocated his comfort is (roman reaching out for his arm, shiv and kendall looking at him after he's brutally honest) but his love is not

a lot of that has to do with the way that logan raised the trio vs how he neglected connor

#like i definitely think the plant who grows in rocks is not literal it's more like connor trying to convince himself he doesn't need love #but also that he accepts his position #that and how alan mentions how con will always come back to the siblings despite not trusting them bc they're all he has left #he knows the minute willa leaves he's gonna be alone again #the trio will always have each other but logan made sure that connor doesn't
