That is one of the many things I love about themforbidden love and enemies to lovers kind of thing
They really are perfection and same to you,!! Let me know if you come across any couples like them.... I am gonna cry buckets on Saturday, after KP ends😭😭😭!!
I just realized, Vegas and Pete are also a forbidden couple right now, like they can't be found by either the Major or the Minor families!! Kind of even like Romeo and Juliet.... (and my brain is blown)
I agree with your words completely! You wrote it so well which is why I also need VP to get together next episode.That…
Right??? We need them together, for our sanity and their own sanity too!!! And I totally agree if only Vegas hadn't chained him a second time, I feel things would have gone much smoother between them!
Pete is never going to wash the white t-shirt and pajama pants he escaped in. He is gonna stash them at the back of his closet. And on the loneliest of nights when Porsche is not in the room, he is gonna bring them out and fall asleep, with them balled and pillowed under his head, drenched in warm tears.
Here is why I don't want an ambiguous ending for VP for S1:
Vegas biggest mistake was trying to take away what he gave pete back: his sense of self. when pete said 'right now i feel useless' and then quickly corrected it to 'no, i've always been useless. i never exist. i have no feelings', it's because it's not just being held captive that's breaking him, it's the weight of his whole life. from his father's abuse to being a bodyguard for the main family, pete was never allowed to be just pete, he was never allowed to just exist. he built himself a mask to cope and survive, one that's happy and caring and carefree but also hollow, and nobody ever cared enough to look behind it, and slowly but surely that mask started to eat away at pete's real self and became a burden too. i wonder just how much agency and personhood can someone have when their whole life revolves around their job and their job is to be ready to lay down their life for someone else. being a bodyguard also entails conforming to everyone else, to have the same clothes, to abide by the same rules, to respond to someone else's needs and never your own, to become a faceless body who can be easily replaced by another. and pete is a great bodyguard, because the real pete has always been invisible, his mask making him become just an empty container for people to dump their needs in without caring what damage they could be doing in the process, without caring what pete's needs could be
this is where vegas comes in, and from here on everything i say may be an unpopular opinion, but i feel like if it weren't for vegas, pete could have been going on living as he did, being nothing and feeling nothing, until he eventually died protecting tankhun or kinn, but vegas gave pete something he never had: vegas made him feel seen, and appreciated, and wanted, made him remember what it was like to be a person (isn't it interesting that, after just saying he lost his humanity and has no feelings, pete tells vegas 'i'm human. i have feelings'?). and then vegas chained him up again, vegas tried to push pete back behind his mask ('you're just my pet'), and pete could have taken that from anyone, but not from vegas, not after getting reminded of what being human feels like, and everything suddenly overflows
this is actually why after episode 13 i personally want vegas and pete to end up together this season EVEN MORE, because pete may have gone back to the main family, may be desperately try to fit back in the place he was before, but it’s impossible to go back being no one when you were finally someone, and vegas, by being the one person who ever saw pete, was the only one who could ever break pete so completely, but like it or not, he is also the only one who can put pete back together
