Thinking again abt how it’s funny that Shiv and Stewy both are so self centered (affectionate. Of course) and yet share names w iconic religious martyrs. Siobhan being a cognate for Joan, with a clear connection to Joan of Arc, and Hosseini meaning Of Hossein being derived from Imam Hussein.
Like the mice thing, the parallel is obviously unintentional (although obviously the way Logan uses names and identities as a weapon for control is obviously not unintentional), but it’s fucking weird it happened twice!
