I would like to introduce you all to John "I missed you so much in the dark world, but I was too blinded by hatred in the air so I hunted, killed, and dismembered every version of you and used their bones to build my citadel to be inside you once more, until there were no more of you and I crumbled with the realization and wept at the feet of a monster to return me to you" Doe.

Bitches be like "I want what they have" and what they have is extreme codependency

idk about calling jarther/private eyes toxic....like sure from our normal perspective but in this fictional world wherein one of them is detective who was already a bit fucked up prior to being possessed by the other part of this pair--a fractured piece of a eldritch god slowly experiencing humanity who have then gone through a clusterfuck of trauma along the way....like i think they're doing pretty okay at it. yeah they fight, lie, have their issues and there is plenty of power dynamics at play but like.....they have open and honest communication when shit hits the fan, they compromise when necessary and they've overcome everything because they've fallen into a symbiotic relationship of sorts through their own mutual desire to make it work.

help i've fallen into the malevolent podcast hole and made a sideblog about it....@thetattersoftheking bc i have no self control :o)
