once again I still think finn and Liz are better as friends, but also I think what’s very irritating about this pairing is that they aren’t really playing a part in any major plotlines rn, so seeing them show up feels like these two have been paired together to hit contract minimums in the meantime, like they’re in this romance story holding pattern until the writers figure out what to do next…

#pentababbles #general hospital #now of course. not every character needs to be contributing to a major plotline all the time #but with fiz it feels like this awkward romance is their whole plot…#comparing to other couples most of the others at least serve multiple plot functions #chalynn has the internal conflict of blq committing corporate espionage threatening to undermine the relationship again #and the external conflicts of blq’s dad being an amnesiac while chase is investigating a murder #sprina has the internal conflict of spencer having to raise his brother with clingy Esme #and the external conflict of Trina’s paternity reveal + Curtis getting shot + Portia’s neurotic ass #sante hasn’t had too much internal conflict they’re mostly chilling #but both of them are involved in external investigations related to major plots #fiz hasn’t had much going for them in a while. aside from passively remarking on what some other main characters are doing…#…they’re pretty disengaged from everything else.#last time they had a relevant plot it was mostly retconning Liz’s history to try making Finn relevant (flop btw)#and then Liz helping nik keep Esme prisoner and confessing to the crime. what now?#like idk much about Finn but Liz is a character with a 25 year history theres gotta be SOMETHING y’all can work with here #ugh whatever I’m in my hater era again lol
