phoenix is actually an awesome character as long as you dissect the fact that he has canonically hit a woman, doesnt give af about children being in relationships with adults, and lets his daughter advertise her panties

#those are like the inexcusable bits there are still things he does outside of this that still make him suck but #its a narratively interesting type of suck rather than a 'he needs to be sent to the gallows' type of suck #these bits are more an exposure of the writers misogynistic biases anyways than it is any sort of meaningful character writing #thats why ill never object to ppl going nuts with hating nick / depicting him as an asshole cuz like. the text for that is there #i choose to dissect it so i can vibe with how the story frames him (not a complete asshole)#outside of these instances he still suck tho. young girls keeps finding themselves in danger under his care #and the fact his dead mentor has to keep coming back to be like 'bitch what the hell did i tell you. BELIEVE IN UR CLIENT' is so funny #he still sucksss. but in a very narratively awesome way #which is why i hate fandom interpretations of him cuz did we play the same game... why are u treating him like a sunshine puppy 🤮
