Excerpt from the KK1 novelization

#the karate kid #daniel larusso #ali mills #cobra kai #just gonna add my thoughts in the tags instead of the caption cause im bad with words lol <3 but #like I get he’s being dramatic here but daniel’s loneliness in general is something that gets looked over a lot #thruout his teens his only friend was his 50+ yr old mentor/father figure #he didn’t rlly have any friends at school #his relationship with ali lasted only one semester #he expected kumiko to move to the us and then. she didn’t. #jessica moved away after a few months of them being friends #and daniel wanted terry to be a friend to him so bad but terry did All That to him instead #he’s good at making friends but bad at keeping them #and even as an adult with a whole ass family he still has no friends outside of his immediate family and coworkers #no wonder daniel clings to the memory of mr miyagi so fiercely he still considers him his only friend #i think the worst kind of loneliness is when ur surrounded by ppl who u know love u but u still feel so isolated #he gives and gives and gives but is always left behind #all this not even considering his ‘everything is my fault so I need to be in control all the time and fix Everything’ mentality #oh and his ptsd :)) #feels bad bro #please seek help king #talking #my stuff: excerpts
