Chanel n° 1778

shiv sat at that table, looked at her brother loganifying, unjustly winning right before her eyes merely because he was the son and she was the daughter. so with the only slice of power she had ever been granted, knowing it would be the last time she would hold that power in her hands, knowing it would doom her to her gendered fate of being nothing but a womb wife mother....shiv robbed kendall of being his father's son because if she couldn't be, then no one can.

do you remember what your dad did to you as a kid? I was there. I was THERE. stewy went to dinners at the roy mansion and he watched logan terrorize his kids, he was there for it. god. years ago one of the great kenstewy fic writers commented on how stewy never raises his voice at kendall even when he’s angry, and never gets physically aggressive either, how his hands are always in his pockets in the first friend card scene, and how this speaks to knowing kendall’s past, having seen first hand what logan’s fits of rage did to his best friend. and now he gets to watch that friend dedicate himself to becoming his dad, the very thing he was always trying to get him away from. because he remembers what logan did to him as a kid, he was there. kendall melted into that hug like it was second nature to put his head right there on stewy’s shoulder, and he cried on it when he’s only done that in his absolute lowest moments with the physical affection from his family. cause they knew each other as kids and stewy was there for everything. im sorry i know we’ve already known all this for years and this is literally the thesis of kenstewy but like, it wasn’t actually the text of the show before
