I'd like to think this happens a lot. I just love that Helaena has her kids' schedules in order and gets annoyed when Aegon comes up with another idea that takes them away from their routine. But you know, she eventually gives in since the kids love him ;)

Tom's line about Shiv being selfish and "find[ing] it very hard to think about me" is actually so telling because while it's absolutely true that she rarely takes his position into consideration, Tom never once thinks about what he can do to help Shiv unless it also benefits him.

Every single time he makes a move or sacrifice that might help her, it's always something that he thinks will give him a leg up. He volunteers to take the fall for cruises, not for Shiv, who is in no way implicated, or even for Waystar, but because he thinks it'll ingratiate him to Logan, and the second it seems like he might have to actually follow through on that, he immediately tries to get out of it and even throws Shiv under the bus. Meanwhile, for all that Shiv disregards his interests, there are a number of things she does that only help him, and she's the one who actually sacrifices something and undermines her position with Logan to beg him not to let Tom go to jail.

It just makes it so clear that no matter how much he might love her (and I think he does, in his own compromised way), for him their relationship was always built on the underlying assumption that it's her job to prop him up, but it's not his job to help her.

loumand divorce vs fight 1973

It's so interesting to see the dissonance between them fighting in 1973 and their final divorce because the fight is so personal, they wanted to attack each other so badly, they knew where to hurt, and they screamed with so much hate. armand could barely pronounce lestat's words before, now he says them like it's nothing "he loved you". in 2022, at the end of it all, they don't care anymore who is next to them, they could be saying all this to anyone, "we would be teachers of each other" "you need to be gone" no has any meaning to either of them. the relationship has become empty to the point where there is nothing to hurt, nothing matters
