The juxtaposition of Dong siks smile at the end of the first episode where the focus on him smiling with darkness on his face while looking at Han ju won and you can't even see his eyes to the end of final episode where his smile is so bright and all the burdens are gone and he looks like the weight is off his shoulders oh my god (shin ha kyun you are amazing)

Louis = niall

Ruben = Lestat

There's no he is right or he is wrong it's about how people are made and how they change because of their circumstances I thought that was obvious

(this I am taking from the nod thing - the courtroom nod and then the wedding aisle nod)

When Niall felt uncomfortable he called for ruben after his orientation in college and ruben arrived the next morning on his bike, the design was we heard the roaring of the bike before we see ruben, same for the wedding when he arrives we hear the roaring of his bike in a similar manner

I have a feeling despite being surprised that ruben is coming I think Niall must have drunk dialled ruben and told him he needed him

I also think we are going to see a more toxic side of Niall, Niall knows the power he has over ruben (according to the script) it must be a heady feeling to have a guard dog and when ruben goes to jail (I think he will get an early release) and Niall keeps expecting ruben will come for him like he promised but ruben doesn't come back, Niall starts feeling some sort of way and we know he has a habit of victimizing himself a bit so he starts feeling paranoid, that ruben will eventually come.

He also missed being the centre of attention of ruben and maybe alby is giving him that attention after they reconnect.

I don't think Alby is his penance I think he is in some fucked up way a connection to ruben that Niall is desperate to keep

Niall is not some innocent person he is still playing a persona we will be seeing his fucked up ness too and personally I can't wait

There's a reason gadd said you can't tell who's worse coz we've only seen rubens outward depravity and niall will be channeling his inwardly which we are yet too see
