if i have a controversial rogue opinion it's that i think taking johnny at face value when he says rogue will do whatever he says (implying he has all the power) is to believe what he tells himself which as we know isn't always...accurate. and the impression i get from some off-hand comments i've read that she was somehow forced or obligated to help him is i think sort of robbing her of her own agency? like yeah she has shit taste in men but she could have turned him down if she wanted to and she didn't really want to. it's a flaw that says something about how she values loyalty and the people she loves. there's nothing even in johnny's memories that suggests she's hopelessly heartbroken or that helpless to resist, hell santiago is the one telling her to consider the offer. she's got johnny's back, but you very obviously get the sense she doesn't need him in her life and has her own shit going on, you know? anyway maybe i'm misunderstanding folks i just love that she built her own empire on being ruthless and savvy and yet still has a soft spot for her old shitheel ex (but only after he grovels and embarrasses himself a little). ok thanks for reading my tedx talk.

#i won't deny johnny was obviously shitty to her and betrayed her trust by sleeping around #idk i just get the sense after their movie date she finally got to have him come crawling back to her and realized she didn't need that #even though she wanted it for a long time. i mean who wouldn't want that. a chance to say 'get fucked!'#and also yeah she's got some survivor's guilt and has done some shit since he died that she's maybe not proud of #but do you think you could rogue amendiares to do something she truly doesn't want to #i think we should celebrate women who want or do things that are bad for them because they just want to. she's a queen.#oops tag rambling well ok send tweet
