This chapter encapsulates everything I’ve been saying about TJ and Ian’s relationship for months but ppl were too hung up on ships wars to actually dissect what the story was showing us their relationship, albeit an interesting one, is a toxic mess. But they’re sorta like each others vices because they went through the most traumatizing moments of their lives together so they cope using one another. It’s unhealthy, and depressing and the only way to heal is let go, although that’s easier said than done.

I can’t see this ending with Ian being with either TJ or Jo lmao, they are both selfish and infatuated with the IDEA of Ian. I’m also kind of sick of people justifying TJ and Ian’s twisted relationship — it is unhealthy and parasitic. There isn’t much “complexity” to their relationship, they bond only through trauma and instability. Family can be toxic, so that’s why ties must be severed.
