#And Rand confessing about missing Rolan and being proud he got out and sticking by his side till the end

idk a big part about bitb to me is that they’re all liars and fakes. Like kian was the most egregious with literally lying about being a rockstar when he was literally the opposite, being hypocritical about the therapy stuff, and literally becoming a bug. But like Rolan and Rand were just as guilty, with Rolan literally being a fake person and as such living his entire life as a lie (which I think he was aware of to some extent). And Rand trying to convince everyone and himself that he was nothing, that it should have been him, that he didn’t want to live, and just that he wanted nothing more than to rot in his parents attic. Rand lied everyday as he told everyone that he didn’t care, he didn’t care about Rolan leaving, he lied about not caring about anyone when he cared so much.

It’s just, bitb is about people being forced to confront the truth headfirst and keep going after that.
