#Logan Roy funeral

Roman Roy X Mitski

I’m absolutely devastated and heartbroken after Sunday’s episode. I know realistically they’ll end up separated, the Roy siblings doing their own things but all Roman ever wanted was for them to be together. He was content with starting a company from the ground up or taking on pierce as long as he did it with Kendall and Shiv. Now, he’s probably gonna lose them both.

I haven’t even begun to grieve the loss of this show. I just love Roman so much I can’t believe we’re a couple days from never getting a new Roman Roy update. I’m very sad, I hope Roman’s story ends up at least hopeful for a better life and not a spiral of misery.

Gotta be honesty with y’all I’m literally not okay after last nights episode

“America decides” is one of the best eps of succession and I love how much character building for Roman is has. Like. Designated fandom meow meow actually has shockingly low levels of empathy and truly believes that solidarity is transactional and no one truly cares about anyone else besides to advance their own agendas. They way they throw in little scenes of Rava and Sophie being scared, Jess trying to subtly stop Greg from calling it, all to just jump back to Roman rolling his eyes at shiv and acting disgustingly apathetic was amazing.

“I don’t want to live in a haunted house," Kendall tells Stewy, unaware that he already is, oblivious to the ghosts lurking around them both.

- Ken, is your fucking head on straight? - I’m twin track. I’m dead but I’m alive.

KENDALL ROY and STEWY HOSSEINI + Heidi Priebe

I am not a "Roman and Shiv are twins" truther, but I just rewatched the Thanksgiving episode and Roman actually says, "I'm thankful I wasn't born a Siamese twin" and Shiv agrees so like, I see you truthers.

still not over how the way tom didn't go to logan's funeral because he was working was huge forshadowing for him becoming ceo. like roman cries and shows that he's actually human and boom. he's no longer in the running for the top job. but tom misses a funeral for work (something logan would absolutely do too), becoming the most inhumane of them all in that one moment, and it shows he can handle the job. he has basically become logan 2.0 with that decision and i think that's so wild

The associates' reactions to Logan's death is fascinating to me, none of them seem to be particularly sad. Karolina steps over the body and goes straight to work, and soon all the others follow. They are laughing and joking at his funeral. These are people Logan spent most of his life and the better part of his day with, and yet he can't even excite a little expression of sorrow from them at his death. Not even from Frank, who he has known longer than others and one of the very few people he has been shown to care about. At the funeral Karl and Frank struggle to say something nice about Logan to Shiv without lying but they can't, and settle on empty nothings like 'good egg' and 'what you see is what you got'. Tom doesn't even go to the funeral. You can buy labour and you can even buy loyalty, but you can't buy love.

Which in a way shows exactly how bad Logan was. He couldn't excite attachment or affection from anyone he wasn't in a position to abuse. He was only a godlike figure to his children. For the others he was just their volatile and unpredictable boss who bullied them. He is someone they worked for in exchange for salary. He is a ladder up their own careers. The associates even show some emotion for the kids (Frank to Kendall, Gerri to Roman) because the kids can still show vulnerability and humanise themselves to them. But not Logan, Logan failed to excite any real, sustaining emotion in anyone except his children, and even that affection is a result of abuse. Goes to show how unloveable a person Logan actually was.

foaming at the mouth waiting for the season 4 succession scripts to be released i need my fruity little hands on them immediately to dissect every single line

[sunflowerdigs]

But what if, while Roman is in his closet rehearsing his unhinged eulogy, a half-naked Jeryd Mencken strolls up behind him, lays his hands on his shoulders, and whispers in his ear "you're gonna kill out there. Already deceased not included"? What then, WHAT THEN?

it was not lost on me that they were all wearing black to connor's wedding. they showed up to their brother's wedding already dressed for their father's funeral without even knowing it

[cakebatteronabrickwall]

Historically speaking, Roman is now one dickpic away from once again crashing so get fucking ready.

[cliveguy]

everything else aside. hello.

[cassiopeialake]

roy siblings confronting their mortality in logan’s tomb is so inch resting to me like. you are your father’s children. you are the kids of logan roy first and foremost and whatever sort of legacy you try to make for yourself will ultimately be crushed under his weight. even in death you will be wall decor in his mausoleum. he knew this from the beginning.

“see shivvy cry” and if jesse armstrong somehow brings up the silly mirror in 4x09 i will do something so terrible that i’ll get me on ATN

[cannibalspicnic]

Can't stop thinking about Ewan getting up and setting the tone for Logan's funeral.

Ewan: My brother was the worst person on the entire planet.

Everyone after Ewan: I mean, yeah. He was bad. He was...really...very very bad. But still.
