#FUCKIN wow u described exactly what I want out of five Allison dynamic in the show

[rllymilerlly]

To be completely honest, while, yes, I absolutely think that Five and Alison are a SEVERELY underrated duo, I honestly think that in childhood they might have been rivals of a sort. Like Luther and Diego. They had (I think) the best control over their powers at the time, would have both seen themselves as above the rest because of this and absolutely would not have hesitated to subtly rub any modicum of achievement or praise in the other's face. Everyone else's powers seem to be more emotionally/physically centred but Five and Allison have to actually think, plan, they have to calculate each time they want to do anything. They are the wordsmiths, with carefully crafted masks and roles that they slip into to protect themselves (Allison is the daddy's perfect daughter, Five is the aloof asshole). And we know as children they were both arrogant, petty, viciously competitive and with an ego from their powers. OBVIOUSLY this was all stoked by Reggie and I have no doubts they would've been pitted against each other but. still. I just think it makes the aftereffects of Five's disappearance and their reunion/relationship in the future more interesting. They're fully grown adults who've moved on and grown up. They've both payed severely for their hubris and with the benefit of hindsight, understand how ridiculous that rivalry was. They spent YEARS grieving for each other and it's all just. ugh. I want more of them

Everything you said buckaroo is exactly how I think and feel.
