Me seeing that the most liked review is basic asf but has one sentence " you may think your favorite characters would be porsche or kinn but in the end its always gonna be vegas 💀💀" LMAO ITS FUNNY HOW THIS ONE REACHED THE TOP btw side note I don't agree with it because everyone has their preferences but its still hilarious
Can someone who has read the novel spoil me a bit? Does the ending of the series stops at the same timeline as…
The story ends at the same timeline although vegas and pete continue in separate chapters where they adopt a child, Porsche's mom stayed dead in the book
Its so funny when someone uses kinnporsche's relationship as an argument to why vegas and pete are " romanticized " a person dead ass said in the reviews " At least kinn didn't kidnap Porsche like vegas did with pete " UH???? SISTER 💀 he snatched him on a boat in episode 1 and proceeded to have a fist fight with him which ended up with a gun at Porsche's head 💀 don't fuck with me lmaoo each couple has their own issues but none have been romanticized, they are all toxic and no one is hiding that

Reminder that Pete was somehow attracted to vegas beforehand, the reason behind his constant flinching in the prior episodes before he was captivated was due to his attraction, he wasn't scared of vegas, he was afraid of the feelings vegas was evoking in him. Pete found his common ground and then tapped into a much darker side of himself that is actually attracted to Vegas’s violence also makes sense without glorifying abductees and assault survivors falling in love with their abusers. Moreover Pete has never once thought that what Vegas is doing is right, he acknowledges the bad behavior and even points it out more than once, he is perfectly capable of going against Vegas and this alone already takes out the possibility of him having Stockholm Syndrome. An other thing is that Pete is a trained bodyguard, he is stronger than you think, he himself tortured and killed people so this is not new, he knows how this works. Then there is their body language, Stockholm Syndrome IS A COPING MECHANISM and Pete is not helpless, in the contrary he has the power in this situation and Vegas is the one who is weak. HE KNOWS he needs to get away from Vegas -- He is not in denial and one of the important components in Stockholm Syndrome is the belief that your captivator is in fact your savior which isn't the case with Pete, he knows Vegas is not doing any good.
The only argument here would be Trauma bonding but this thing occurs often so I don't consider it that significant. Usually the hostage parties develops negative feelings towards the one's that are attempting rescue them and this isn't the case because like I said, Pete tried to escape which is something a person with a Stockholm syndrome wouldn't do, not to that extend. Also these individuals are generally not harmed by their captors and may even be treated with kindness but we saw Vegas hurt Pete not just imprisoned him so it's really unlikely. After all it's a fictional character so people making this assumption is okay but I don't think they have any source of material to justify it as a fact like many KEEP trying to do. If that's your perspective then that's fine but realistically speaking Pete would not be diagnosed with it, many professional therapists broke this down in the comment section SO PLEASE stop throwing it around so easily as if it's a FACT cuz it's NOT.
I just finished episode 2 and I'm not ready for the trials and tribulations these two will go through, I can see from a mile away that Mark just loves disaster that came tornadoing into his love. If this breaks my heart I will blame the one's who recommend it 😞🖐
