#my love#i have such complicated feelings about eleanor#i love her as a character hate her as a person and hated her ending#i love the recurring thread that eleanor will do anything to protect her power#that she’s willing to change to follow power even if it means making the wrong choices#i love the way her and max’s arcs intersect and her complicated relationship with vane#and the father-daughter relationship she has with flinr#but i really disliked her ending#the pregnancy storyline literally only exists for manpain#eleanor might have loved rogers but she also loved max and vane and betrayed everyone she’d ever known#i wish that her and rogers’ storylines had been switched and she found him dead instead and realized#that sacrificing everything for power is worthless

James Flint in every episode:
XXI. When I lost Thomas, I raged.
I was distraught.
I wept.
But with you… I’m ruined over you.
