GET IN LOSERS WE’RE GETTING A HAPPY ENDING!!!!!!
here we are again. gripped with fear as i prepare to listen to the new tpp episode. wish me luck you guys.
I’ve seen some people talkin’ about the Jupeter relationship as of the latest episode (“sixteen tons part 2”) so, SPOILERS AHEAD!!!
I’ve seen some people saying that Nureyev is being incredibly toxic, how Juno needs to just leave him and stuff and yeah if Juno wants to leave he can but he won’t because he loves Nureyev. And in this context of Nureyev blurting the “I never want to see you again” and immediately backpedaling a bit, immediately contradicting himself by staying with Juno — trying to shove him away, handle things on his own; those are all things that Juno recognizes. I’ve talked with my bestie about it how Juno’s been on this growth journey all throughout the show, and how he’s slowly coming to a better place, meanwhile Nureyev is on the slippery slope of self destruction. Juno knows these signs because he’s had the chance to look back at his own and he’s experienced them.
In the script for this episode there’s a “stage direction” talking about how Nureyev has entered his “total compartmentalization meltdown” and that is part of his reasoning for being so detached, and cold. He’s trying so hard to exert control over his life because he feels like he’s losing it — we already knew he was stressed in S3 about this (probably post Final Resting Place too ngl because no Miasma payout), and it’s just been building. Not to mention what the Dokana group has just put on him, I have a feeling they haven’t been the most forthright with information and may have been slowing down and he can feel that it’s getting too late for Slip. Nureyeg’s life is “not [his] own” and he’s been trying to exert some kind of control in his life, and Juno’s openess and love might actually be detrimental to that in his eyes.
As for Juno, he cares about Nureyev and doesn’t want him to have to go through what I suspect he knows is going to be an emotional disaster, alone. Nureyev is essentially pulling a S1 finale Juno — trying to shove the person who makes him feel a lot away in order to do things by himself because of some emotional “duty” that he thinks he has.
I think Juno knows Nureyev’s spiraling towards a break and as he even said, he cares about him, and he’s gonna be there for him.
Sorry to ramble, I just really wanted to put my two cents in on this because it — this means a lot to me —
SOBBING
this parallel with final resting place is killing me
