Alexei momentarily gaining omnipotence just to tell Ivan to stop accusing himself of killing their dad whenever he’s alone
#to me Alexei literally sending a message from God is the only explanation why he knows that.#considering Alexei specifies that Ivan says that when he’s *alone*. how do you know what he does when he’s alone.#plus they ‘barely spoke’ in those two months. and what dmitri and katya said should’ve implied to him that ivan thinks dmitri killed fyodor.#anyway I’d like to think his ‘Messenger of God’ thing would’ve had more significance in the sequel. I’m wrong but it doesn’t exist so Idc 💞#tbk#there are a few other moments where I felt like he was doing the biddings of God but IMO this is the most notable one
