y’all, my justified roots are showing, because i could not disagree more with some of the tomshiv takes
my justie ass over here, being like, true love is knowing *exactly* where to hurt another person. true love is not just a wild swing but scalpel-like delivery with the words you’re hurting someone with
no one in succession has hurt each other so precisely. logan can hit his kids or call them unserious but he doesn’t know them well enough to get them deeper. he hurt because of who he is and not for what he’s saying
but tom and shiv laid it all bare on the table and each blow was further proof: “i know you. i know you because i love you. no one on this planet could hurt you like im hurting you now because you never let anyone know you like i do.”
all of you are saying tomshiv stocks are down, but to me tomshiv stocks are up. no one knows tom or shiv like they know each other. no one on this show knows anyone else like they know each other. everyone on this show lashes out and swings wildly and hurts everyone else, but not like this. not with such deftness and care to only say things that hurt
shiv once said that caroline will leave you bleeding before you’d know she’s got you, but even this is impersonal. because caroline does this with everyone, it is no longer special.
but tom and shiv saved barbs just for each other. that’s love. whatever fear they may have had-- they can, at the very least, no longer fear that they aren’t being seen. they saw each other in the deepest possible way and proved it. and that’s not something any character has with any other character. this is tomshiv endgame to me.

honestly, this is the picture of all time. it’s not even well done and looks like it’s taken with a phone but, the composition, the posing... it’s so captivating.
