frankly delusional

Their odd behaviors that I originally chalked up to being fanservice/character archetypes [instantly clicked] and made sense after seeing end of s1 UGH

The way both of them are probably in the same boat when it comes to this entire ordeal

But each of them completely different ends of the spectrum and yet so very similar in terms of handling ◇ and coping ♧

♧ Both so sick and tired of it all

. Yet Taiga chooses him own peace over explaining himself to let others understand

. And Jin, raised and stuck in the habit of Keeping An Image, finds insane work arounds to justifying his behavior if not just using is power and status to call shots

Both are trying to be efficient in their own ways

Both want to hurry up and skip to the new attempts

Both are so insanely competent but forced to drag others along because as Much as they want to do it all, get it all done, they NEED others

And they Both hate that.

. Jin is more used to delegating tasks and putting faith in others thanks to his position

. But Taiga? I wonder if he used to be like that

◇ I wonder what Taiga was like before everything...

Before the situation wore him out and he resorted to just doing his own shit without a word of communication

He probably has a mindset of "these asses are doing things too slow, why the need for all the pleasantries, let's just get this shit done tf??" - more words than he'd ever use but yknow

. Jin also does that ofc, but Taiga seems to be in a more passive position in terms of calling shots due to His reputation being "too extreme," so Taiga has to call his own shots at the right timing where he can no longer be stopped since what *he* thinks is the next corse of action probably has been shot down over and over again for being too direct and inconsiderate

◇ And that explains Jin's dislike of Taiga too cause he's still doing The Most considering all the parts and all the pieces while Taigas only out here being way too direct and reckless when there's just To Much To Risk

◇ So Taigas mindset now is apathetic in the "nothing matters anymore, let's just do shit" kicking every door down possible

◇ And Jin's mindset is apathetic in the "does anything even matter anymore, shit, sure- let's just get this over with" kind of dragging his feet and stomping through the systems since he still holds value in them (whether he wants to or not)

Both apathetic, both becoming more reckless, and Both extreme mindsets paralleling,

◇ but two different takes of how to get shit done.

♧ They both cope similarly tbh too

> Jin picking back up smoking (an indulgence)

> Taiga gambling (his indulgence)

> Jin staying in his room unless needing to take action

> Taiga also only taking action when necessary, even during missions

♧ both saving energy as much as possible

♧ and both acting when no one else can//when they want to skip the "drama"

How they both seem to be strong and efficient? Extremely temperamental? Like people wanting to cut to the chase - to hurry up to the end.

They, and everyone else atp probably, just wants to find the solution and wrapped it all up already

Ugh, I love the writing of TKDB so much cause none of that made sense until s1 end,

. They were just powerful piss babies who forced everyone else to cater to their will

. But now they're piss babies with a reason to piss, it all makes sense now ♡♡♡ /j
