#milkovich sisters

[kandyzee]

Gonna talk a little about mandy and molly relationship cause no one ever does. The few times I've seen people talk about, they say mandy didn't like her or was a bad older sister.

NOT LETTING PEOPLE THINK THAT!!!

First reason I see people say she doesn't like her sister is because she doesn't want to go get her. I feel like people are being purposely dense on this one cause she literally says why in the show. It's better for molly to be in foster care than at mandys house with Terry. Mandy goes through a whole separate kinda of abuse than her brothers. She wants molly (who is also a girl and could potentially have the same thing happen to her) not to have to suffer that. Outside of that mandys house is 100% not a safe environment tor child, its a one to no parent household, the place is practically falling apart, relatives are always in and out, it's used as a place to do crime. There are so many reasons why makeing her live there would be straight up crule. This is why when she does bring molly home she stays at the gallaghers.

The general coldness she has with her sister can very easily be explained by the fact that they don't really know each other. They don't get the chance to bond. I think it's also about protecting molly too. The Gallagher house is unsustainable. Mandy knows she won't be able to stay there forever, and she knows molly won't too. Mandy is trying to make sure molly doesn't get too comfy because she knows she will have to leave eventually. Also, THEY ARE SISTERS. Even if they aren't close, they're still sisters. No one says mandy hates mickey just cause they don't get along.

Finally, the way mandy makes sure people know she's a half sibling. I've always seen this as mandy trying to separate molly from herself/the milkovichs. Not her loving her any less. Being a milkovich comes with a lot of burden. Mandy grew up being compared to the worst in her family, and people already expected her for a reason outside of her control. She knows what it's like to be judged and ridiculed simply for being the daughter of a bad man. If she can somehow save molly from that, she will. Maybe molly won't be seen as a real milkovich. People will feel bad that she's associated with them instead of grouping her in. Mandy loves her sister, she sees good in her (Maybe even some of herself )and wants other people to be able to see the good too.

Sometimes I think about how Mickey & the Milkovich’s very first storyline is centered around them getting revenge on someone who they think hurt their little sister.

Mickey was just scouring the south side with a bat prepared to do ANYTHING for her without any question or need for proof, clearly so protective of her & his family. And the way no one’s even surprised by it shows that this isn’t the first time the Milkovich boys have gone after someone they think has fucked with Mandy.

They grew up in a house of horrors where all they had was each other, it almost seems like if they couldn’t protect each other from Terry, then at least they could do whatever they could to protect each other from everyone else.

And then that side of their dynamic which was set up as such a core element of their family was just forgotten about and never really explored again after, but I WISH we could’ve seen more of it.

there's something that really gets to my heart about both Debbie and Svetlana naming their kids after their shitty abusive fathers because "they had good qualities too" and still actively working to be better parents than they had as children but there's still a part of them that are those scared little girls who just wanted their dad to love them and protect them but they got let down over and over again and yET they still honor those shitty fathers and who they could have been with their children's names 😭

@m4ndysk4nkovich @hayscodings Relevant to your Interests

[echosluvr]

just remembered none of the milkovich siblings , ESPECIALLY mandy and iggy, were at the gallavich wedding guys its kinda over

[smiley-milkovich]

Mickey telling his kids he was king of the south side when he was their age

[m4ndysk4nkovich]

ive said stuff about reading old shameless fics and how interesting it is but another thing i just remembered is that people didn’t know mickey’s name was mikhailo until 7x09 (i heard that fans had something to do with that but i’m not sure if that’s true)… like i heard “micheal” in a fic from 2013 and i was so confused

[lovekenney]

mickey loves debbie so much you cant change my mind. she is his fav gallagher (not counting ian) he would kill for her prove me wrong you cant!!! and she would do the same.

On list of things that should have happened at the gallavich wedding: Ian and Mandy preforming NSync Choreography. Cut to horrified look on Mickey.

svetlana having to move back into the shitty little apartment above the alibi in s8 after she had managed to give yevgeny a proper home, two other parents, and two sisters is so devastating i wonder if he asked her why they had to leave and what she told him happened

i’m so sad for both of them

[kandyzee]

I think about these 2 at least once a day.

[mickeym4ndy]

THEM

[depressedstressedlemonzest]

@gallacrafts !!

This months theme #25 is Mexico!

I made them a miniature beach spot in a margarita glass!

They have a nice umbrella to rest under and not burn burn under, they have seashells they collected, oceanic activities, and DRINKS!

[sammygender]

people are absolutely insane about trevor from shameless. i’ve seen multiple people call him “emotionally and sexually manipulative” girl?? on the emotional and sexual manipulation show??? or they hate him for that one time he told ian to get over monica being a bitch to him like come off it it was one line and he was already in a bad mood

[incorrect-fairytail]

Meredy: You can’t let this happen!

Ultear: I know. But I’m bored now, so it looks like I probably will. Good luck to you all.

lip sending mandy back to her house was pure fucking evil btw i don't care if she was being annoying or overly eager or clingy he KNOWS what happened to her in that house and yet he sends her back because he's sick of her like that's so???? bitch?????
