I agree. No best friend or honestly any friend would do that. It was incredibly selfish.
Porsche's characterisation in KP has truly been very weird. He went from a fun, thoughtful guy to a kind of dumb, lovesick person who doesn't have time for anyone other than his bf. He forgot Big, his concern for Chay decreased every episode and now he literally just sold out his friend who risked his Life for him... Somebody explain to me how to still like Porsche???? I'm really asking for a friend here!!
I love that, right now, the entire vegaspete fandom is emotionally damaged and everyone adds fuel to the fire…
VP fandom is deep in their angsty, emo era. Everybody's writing sad meta, making sad GIFs, sad FMVs are up on YouTube now, sad fanfics are popping up. And we are rewatching the VP scenes a million times to cause us more emotional damage!! We are in the deep end.
So true. And i was like why is he not the main of the family. If he was none of this could have happened π
Tankhun might be a drama queen, with a crazy wardrobe, but he really is the most worthy of being a mafia leader. He thinks with his brain, even when emotional and can question his own family and go against their decision too, if need be. He really is deserving of leading the main family!!!
Wrote this whole meta for Tumblr! But I'm gonna leave it here too...
[Vegas, Mirrors, Monsters, Mercy, and Pete]
We have seen scenes, twice at least so far ( as much as I can remember) of Vegas looking at himself in the mirror and enjoying the view. Like enjoying the monster he is seeing being reflected on the glass, in a sinister solitude (once in the scarlet hue of his bedroom after attempting to assault Porsche and once with Tawan, where he was essentially just lost admiring and smirking at himself almost even unaware of Tawan's presence).
However, the interesting thing I observed in Ep 13 is that Vegas almost completely falls apart the moment he sees that same monster being reflected in Pete's dark eyes. Like he undergoes a physical, visceral change (acted outstandingly by Bible!) whenever Pete shows him the mirror.
Vegas falls apart, he breaks into a million pieces, he cries, he begs not to be left alone, and he whimpers for forgiveness.
Vegas with the knife realizes how broken Pete actually is and how Vegas has gone too far. It's like Vegas suddenly sees himself in Pete, how broken and hurt he is, exactly like Vegas' own bruised soul; and in Pete's teary eyes he sees the monster he nurtures inside himself in secret, staring back at him in all its ugliness.
In a split second his facial expressions change, and he lets go of the knife when Pete shouts 'let go' and even puts his arms up. In a drastic moment, he hates and abhors that monster, he had so carefully crafted all his life.
Vegas can see himself in Pete's self-apathy and almost unwillingness to even be alive at that moment, and it changes him like a switch, everything Vegas is feeling, everything Vegas has conditioned himself to feel.
Because strangely unknown to him, a quite subdued emotion he has felt never before is taking root in his soul. And this little droplet of emotion doesn't want Pete to become like him, to feel like him, to suffer like him.
And Poof goes the monster!! Vanishes from within his bony ribs.
Replaced by shame at what he has done, what he was about to do, left with nothing but fear of being left alone, begging for mercy and dare I say, Love too?
And Pete is like his mirror. Vegas literally sees himself when Pete breaks (again incredible acting by Build) after the sudden attack by Vegas.
I think so far even Vegas was unaware of how fragile, hurt, and broken of a man Pete is. They are the same but also different, and Vegas witnesses it too.
I love this scene so much, because yes their sex is good, but it isn't really the major point of their 'relationship'. They don't need to have sex every time to communicate (or not communicate) like Kinn and Porsche. Sex is important but not the focal point.
I think, this moment was absolutely essential for Vegas to come to terms with himself, and with Pete, and their future. He had to face his monster in the eyes of the man, he broke, the man he just had made breakfast for, just to rebuild it all back from scratch with nothing but broken mirrors and small mercies.
When Pete said βI didnβt like itβ and started punching himself I thought he meant the sex so I was like…
I interpreted it as Pete being in an extremely fragile state of mind, (I commented earlier that I think Pete has underlying, undisclosed depression, where people actually are unable to enjoy anything truly, and kind of feel guilty if something out of the blue brings them joy, I'm not like a hundred percent sure, but I think it's part of the reason for his statement) and also I think Pete was going through a state of denial that he even liked any of what they did together, refusing to accept he was capable of liking of any of it.
S2 for KP I wanna see even more character development like Vegas Pete going to therapy together, and being happy in a loving sweet healthy relationship, forgiving their past selves and moving on.

Somebody explain to me how to still like Porsche???? I'm really asking for a friend here!!
We are in the deep end.
Vegas: So youβre telling me there is still a chance?
Pete: I did not say that.
Vegas: .....
Vegas: Wait for me, I'll be home by 5 to make us dinner.
Pete: .....
A gem from Twitter.
He really is deserving of leading the main family!!!
