And I Didn't Think This Was Necessary But After The Last Tw Meta Post I Made - Tumblr Posts

crazy to me how people still put so much effort into trying to compare isaac to liam (granted, i get that one it mostly makes sense to me) or theo (i get this significantly less it's such a superficial comparison) while talking about later seasons characters when hayden romero is literally right there. both isaac and hayden were younger siblings to people in civil defense positions (soldier and cop, respectively), both were some of the only characters in the show, barring scott, who actually had jobs at some point, jobs that both worked as a result of a family situation that were also not objectively appropriate/normal for teenagers to be working, both ended up on the side oppositional to the main group for a period of time, isaac with derek, hayden with theo, with little to no choice in the matter (yes, technically isaac had a choice not to take the bite, but it was a choice between that and staying in an abusive house, then after his dad died it was a choice between going with derek or yk, being homeless and a murder suspect) and had marked shifts in their personalities/the way they presented themselves as a result of it, eventually shifting back to something closer to their true selves when taken into the mccall pack, and gaining renewed senses of selflessness + protectiveness. both isaac and hayden held intense, long lasting grudges, they were both characteristically blunt and probably too willing to be honest with people. despite their physical prowess and, at times impulsive, willingness to fight, both also proved their ability to think/work strategically often. oh and then both of them moved away from beacon hills and were promptly forgotten about, sparing a single mention of them leaving. this is really just a basic comparison and there's probably a few other similarities im forgetting but it's been a second since i last watched season 5 & 6 so. anyways i just think the isaac/liam and isaac/theo comparisons have been fucking done to death at this point with no particularly interesting insights and i wish people would branch out and also actually remember that hayden exists for once.
