21 28 29 succession asks :)

succession ask meme<3

21. favorite motif through which to analyze the show (eg, dogs, food, cigarettes, piss, real vs non real persons)

real vs not real makes me INSANEEEEE. nrpi, working class people / sex workers / migrants being seen as expendable and Not Real People, but at the same time, the roys aren’t real people either because they exist in a perpetual purgatory where their actions have no lasting consequences even when they actively want them to. they are not Real People and they never will be + the clashing mindsets of “consequences dont exist bc nothing is real! :D” vs “consequences dont exist because nothing is real D:”

(a couple months (?) ago i saw a post abt how they all basically live in purgatory so im like. reiterating that bc it was soooo well-written im probably gonna go through my likes, find it and reblog it again lmao) but to me it’s sort of like beating the final Late Stage Capitalism boss in a video game and its like. u get to walk around a bit and finish side quests and shit but it’s like. a perpetual feeling of Okay. Now What. ur surrounded by beautiful places and people and scenery and food but at the end of the day it doesn’t matter because none of it means anything anyway

28. Birth Order Discourse (roman youngest, shiv youngest, or twins?) (+ ages if you want)

you know what i used to be a roman youngest truther but im slowly but surely being indoctrinated into the shiv youngest agenda. first of all shiv’s nickname being pinky bc shes the youngest makes sense. and like .. roman is the middle child and youngest brother and he’s the weaker dog and the spare. meanwhile shiv had to navigate not being taken seriously as a daughter, and as The Only Daughter, and also the youngest out of all of them

as for ages, i’d sayyyy. connor is early 50s, kendall is 40 obviously wbk, roman is 35 and shiv is 33

29. a beloved personal headcanon

ok so. i see the roman and shiv had a crush on stewy when they were younger consensus but. i offer: shiv had a big gay crush on rava when her and kendall first started dating and she didn’t know what to do with it so she’d alternate between being like. hey. hi hiii rava 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰 whenever rava makes small talk with her over dinner or smth and then actively going out of her way to avoid her / being borderline hostile the next day. and rava is like ???? Ok very weird but we move.

#THANK U B NAME TWIN !!#I ANSWERED THIS SO LATE BUT #also. obsessed with food and what each character's relationship with it tells us abt them #like stewy being the only person who actually Enjoys food #but also like.#the way the labor that goes into making the food that no one ends up enjoying or even eating sometimes is shown on camera #the painstaking effort they put into every dish being shown on camera only for them to have to throw it all away #because fuck it lets order pizza!#and its like if i were a minimum wage worker who worked 4 these yt ppl and had to routinely throw away perfectly fine food #that could probably feed an entire neighborhood! on the daily! id probably kill them all with my bare hands lmfaojfalkjas #and not just the roys actually. the scene with nan pierce where she decides to take out the turkey herself as if shes like #cooked it herself and everyone applauds meanwhile the woman who works 4 her stands to the side #ITS JUST SOOOO.#succession
