I'm always talking about how thinking about Jon and Jon-El's parallels makes me wanna eat cardboard but today I thought about how very different Jordan and Jon-El are when it comes to the whole attention/fame thing is and I just..

#how jon-el never asked nor wanted the fame and attention but his parents pretty much forced him into it after he revealed his powers #then he started to lean into the attention he was getting because he never felt seen or heard in his family #and when his parents tried to parent him he wasn't having it because they never cared about him before #and why should he have to listen to them when they're the ones who put him in these situations #they sold him out to fame and decided they'd rather be his managers instead of his parents #it's not a surprise he pretty much laughed in their faces when they tried to parent him #jordan and jon-el both have 'parents are the reason we act this way' in common #except jordan's is because they babied and spoiled him while jon-el's is they neglected him and ignored his feelings #i'mma stop here because i could talk about jon-el forever #his character is so interesting and complex for only being a few episodes #superman and lois #jon-el
