I feel like they both need to learn to differentiate a little, too.
Mhok needs to see that not everything will go down to hell if he isn't around and that if it does... It isn't his fault. I thought the most tragic thing about last episode was that Mhok would have chosen that way even if Day didn't have any disability. He would have done this regardless for anyone he is this seriously in love with. And he needs to learn that this level of fear will only hurt him in the long run. Someone needs to tell him that he can sometimes put himself first.
Meanwhile Day needs to learn that not every decision that might favor him and his situation, was also made because of him. Maybe with him in mind, but not with him as a cause.
We face down the Last Twilight finale today and the hardest part is knowing that, yes, Mhok and Day really did need to break up because their relationship was unbalanced but the imbalance shown in the episode was the wrong imbalance so which imbalance are they going to solve this episode?
Is the imbalance 'Mhok is overprotective of Day and needs to learn to let him live his life 👎' or is the imbalance 'Mhok gives everything to Day and also has trauma and needs comfort and Day has to grow to be able to provide that👍'? Because those are two very different imbalances and one I can handle and the other I cannot.
And therein lies my deepest fear for this show. Because that fight at the end of the last episode is either about Mhok genuinely being overprotective of Day and Day learning nothing about his mom putting her career before him and instead just forcing Mhok to do the same thing because, obviously, everything is Mhok's problem to solve and Day doesn't to do anything except keep growing into the best person he can be and Mhok needs to learn to just... I dunno? Accept that Day needs everything from him while giving nothing in return, I guess?
Or the fight is about how Mhok constantly has to be perfect and cannot be, in any way, flawed because Day can't face it. And when Day realizes that Mhok is flawed he has to live his own life and come to terms with truly needing to be able to support the man he loves so when Mhok comes back into his life he'll be able to be there for him and be able to give him the emotional support he needs and deserves for all the support he's given Day in this relationship. Because that would genuinely rebuild their relationship and make the fight actually mean something.
So... which will it be? What will we get? Will we get Mhok's continued and constant need to be perfect or will we get Day finally needing to learn how to support Mhok?
I am terrified.
