sat in bed at like 4 today and thought about the whole tradition of andrew drugging people when he finds them a threat
a lot of people figured it was out of character but honestly itās pretty fitting. i just donāt think andrewās justification of it is like most people have been sayingāi honestly donāt think iāve seen anyone bring this up but yk iām not the all knowing.
andrew was put on drugs when he was 17 because people were anxious of the threat heād be.
a year later andrew gave dan and matt (if i remember correctly? he tried renee too but he didnāt need to in the end) drugs to better decipher whether theyād be a threat to his people.
do we see? yes no maybe so?
do i think andrew had a right to put any of them on drugs? no.
do i think he had valid reasons to? yes, and he knew it was done to him. for years.
obviously andrew is treated very differently compared to neil and any of the monsters. to them, it makes sense that andrew is medicatedāitās supposed to make life safer for them.
andrew drugged people to get something out of them, get an idea of how much of a danger theyād be.
anyway, andrew is treated like a monster because he displays himself as one. iād say itās his doingāwhich it isābut really itās just him hiding away in a little shell so that the only thing anyone else sees is that shell (hard. like a turtle.)
(none of that is correctly worded or in any way eloquent but idc iām driving iām not trying to be a poet rn.)
i could say more and i want to but i donāt have the words and i cannot crash my car again
