(not so) SIMSTOBER Day 17 - Hallowed Grounds
Inspired by American Horror Story Season 6: Roanoke, Kathy Bates, playing Agnes Mary Winstead, playing The Butcher.
"I am the queen of every hive. I am the fire on every hill. I am the shield over every head. I am the spear of battle. Who but I am both the tree and the lightning that strikes it?"

Understanding in 1x02 vs 4x03:
*deep breath*
Early on, this is what Shiv sees:
This is what she doesn’t see:
Kendall is cornered into talking about the business. Wordlessly, gently threatened into it when he said he didn’t want to right now. Gerri and Karl aren't in mourning. They are doing their jobs, and they’re testing him to see if he can do his. If he said no and walked away, the company would be taken out of family control, Logan would be furious, and he'd lose out on his dream forever.
Shiv sees none of that happen, and Kendall doesn't even tell her about it- maybe because he thinks she wouldn't listen, maybe because she said she thinks he’s weak already, or maybe because he just almost never defends himself in general. But she can’t see his perspective without knowing what happened.
The lack of understanding between them results in this disaster:
She thinks he’s being cold by talking to the nominating committee, but we see how he really feels. He just always turns to reason and order in times of crisis and she doesn’t really know that.
He has not forgotten this conversation or Shiv’s perception of him here. He doesn’t want that:
Shiv’s been inside Waystar now. She knows now that talking business for a minute during a dark time doesn’t mean you don’t care. In fact, she did it while Kendall was confessing his worst moment, but it didn’t mean she loves him less. She knows him better now and has seen that he’s anything but emotionless. No one criticizes him for turning to reason and order this time. They ask for it.
No matter what happens, he won’t forget this nice conversation either. He won’t forget that his siblings finally see him the way he’s always hoped they would: as the big brother who can make hard decisions in seemingly impossible moments. He’s the one who can shepherd them through it. There’s trust there now and they finally know how it feels. The door will be open for togetherness now, even if it looks like it might close for a while. It’s not that they changed as people, it’s that they’ve learned how to read each other.
Not seeing each other’s perspectives led to having to be alone:
Now, it seems, even though they will struggle for a while, they have an understanding.

Was anyone else kinda… disappointed by this episode?
Idk I didn’t hate it exactly but Nathan being the one to revive Slappy felt way too outta left field (we know he’s sorta dumb but man was literally fucking possessed why tf would he go through with it?). I seriously think it should have been Allison. Why was she even fucking included if she wasn’t going to be used?
Not just that but I think everyone is moving on way to fucking easily. Lucas is the only one I think is showing an actual logical response and even then it’s mostly glossed over. These people were traumatized! Horrifically traumatized! Isaiah almost got pushed over a cliff!
And I know some of the parents are distanced or neglectful (*cough* Elizabeth *cough*) but would they really be okay with sending their kids off to Seattle with only Sara as supervision? Again: they all almost fucking died! And we didn’t get to see the parents find out about what the kids had been going through at all- hell Colin was told and was like “oh your a murderer? Ok then! Wanna get married?” Like I’m sorry fucking what?
Also: WHY ARE COLIN AND NORA ENGAGED? The last time we saw them together Nora hardly gave a damn about him. Colin asking isn’t outta character but her saying yes??? I don’t buy it.
Idk, maybe I just miss how character focused the first five episodes were, because since Slappy’s introduction there’s been no real down time. This episode completely rushed the recovery process and I am displeased (even if I know it was probably necessary).

alright, taking bets on who is holding the flashlight at the end of Ep8
I've got my money on two candidates:
either the one person who was in the Biddle house that we haven't heard from, and who was sold as a villain from the start.
or the one person who willingly walked into the Biddle house but whose plans got massively derailed by Harold's sudden appearance.
it's either Allison, the ex-girlfriend, or Nathan Bratt himself.
If I'm wrong, then Disney needs new writers.
