#enrages me on behalf of shiv and shiv alone

[grey-sides]

I desperately wish Succession was about Shiv and not about Kendall. I don't care about father/son dynamics. I care about a woman shaving away each piece of herself in an effort to fit into a mold she will never be allowed to inhabit.

Parts of it are about Shiv, sure, but it always, always, always comes back to Kendall. I'm not compelled by his story, I'm not interested in him fumbling each and every time.

I wish she could walk away from it. I wish I didn't understand why she continues to press and hope and try. I wish she could have stayed in DC and pursued a life that would have let her be happy.

I hate that she can't be real with Tom. I hate that Logan was right about her decision to marry him. I want the world for Siobhan Roy, and I know I'm never going to see it.
