The phrase "I'm here" means sm more when you think about their childhood
They have a fear of abandonment, or at least Taylor does (since she's the one they say "Im here" to) because of their parents being absent throughout their childhood
and why the whole situation with Tyler is actually a good thing to happen.
(‼️Spoilers for episodes 43-51‼️)
You've been warned...
Starting off with ep. 43 when we see Mariana Hernandez - Taylor and Tyler's mother - for the first time.
You can see the tension rising when she mentions the twin's father, which at the time is suspicious but since it goes unexplained it doesn't bring much of our attention until
Back then we couldn't confirm what that means, not until ep. 48 and Tyler's flashbacks. Now we know that the twins' father is dead, so that tells us that their mother doesn't seem to remember about that. To say more, she's CONVINCED that he's still alive because even when the situation points to him not being with them anymore, she still only finds it a bit weird but doesn't seem to remember the truth.
Either she doesn't want to remember it, or it's a part of some kind of medical, mental condition, but something that helps keep up this Delusion is that, as we know, after the death of Ethan Hernandez, Tyler took over his responsibilities.
Mariana never had to take over anything her husband did for the family, she didn't feel the weight that fell on them after his passing. All "thanks" to Tyler.
And for some reason her kids try to keep up this facade with distracting her from thinking about their father before she remembers anything
And they succeed, bringing them to the point when they are the ones that take care of her, instead of it being the other way around, as it should. She probably still does her share of responsibilities a parent should have (a part she was doing before too, when Ethan was alive) but the other half AND the mental burden is all on Tyler and Taylor.
But something changes in ep. 51
When Tyler is "injured", her first instinct is to call her husband - and his father - which is understandable, you wouldn't really think logically in a situation like that, but for Mariana, this is when the truth and logic finally hits her
She reminds herself that she can't call Ethan for help and you can clearly see that she's about to panic
But then Taylor comes in, and changes her mother's thinking of "I'm on my own, what do I even do?" To "I have others to care for, I'll think about myself later".
You can almost hear her thoughts saying "You're their mother. Act like it".
This is the moment she realizes that:
1. She can't depend on Ethan anymore
2. Tyler won't always be there to help her
3. She has to be strong for her kids because she should be. Because it's her responsibility that she's been neglecting... or just wasn't able to bring to life for WAY too long
After Tyler wakes up and the group leaves the hospital, it's said that his mom stayed there with him. I think both the time when Taylor needed her support and the time they spent together with Tyler when she was the one caring for him for a change will normalize their family situation. It will help Mariana realize that Tyler was and is still just a kid, and was never ready to take over his father's "position" in caring for her and Taylor, even if he did it because he had to.
That's what I think anyways, I'm open to discussion though ^^ and well, now as they're separated, their relationship will either freeze for a moment, or change again and hopefully it'll become even stronger after another reunion :)
Ok completely random thought, but where were the Hernandez's getting their money from? Did they just have a shit ton of savings? After Ethan died, Mariana seemed far too grief stricken to even leave her bed, let alone work. Was another family member helping financially?
(Not a ship. More of some sort of weird toxic father-son shit that my brain came up with. That has to do with some sort of weird co-dependency. Which isn't the right word but shhhh.)
Kiyotaka and Takaaki both taught themselves that they didn't need anyone other than each other. Kiyotaka had been hurt by those who he called "friends" many times. Takaaki had been used, abused, heartbroken and scarred. And it wasn't like it was a rule in the house, they decided that on their own. They both decided and kept in their mind is that, there wasn't going to be any room for anyone else. Takaaki only need his only son. And Kiyotaka only needed his father that stayed.
They both know it's unhealthy. But it's been the only way they can keep themselves from going down a dark path..
Kiyotaka had "friends", people who treated him kindly. But in the end, they only had one thing in mind. It was to bring harm to him. It hurt him. Broke his heart. It made him despise his grandfather more. (The reason why he was being hurt.) Then, he finally realized that he didn't need anyone. It was only his father, the man who truly cared for him. And that would be it.
Takaaki had many people he cared for. People he loved. People who left him. People who hurt him. His first true sort of heartbreak was from his father. He looked up to him. He thought the world of him. Then it all changed. He was corrupt. He was awful. He'd gone through a life of abuse. And he'd gone through so many people whom he loved. But...they never lasted. They either died...or left. Left him alone. So weak. So vulnerable.
From these experiences, they decided that nobody else deserved anything, their love, their time, nor efforts more than the other person they hold dear.
au where mariana hernandez is judged unable to take care of tyler and taylor so they send them to adoptive houses or idk except they keep running away to their mother over and over again
Reason why you shouldn’t blindly trust a post without research #636256356
You might have seen this picture back in 2018:
(If this looks weird, I copied and pasted from my computer instead of doing it from my phone)
It was taken in 2017 but the picture went viral months later when someone posted about Kiké Hernandez having fragile masculinity because he didn’t want to be seen shorter than the reporter, Kelli Tennant since she was in heels.
Now, the actual context is way different. Kelli Tennant explained:
“I spoke to him and Mariana, his fiance, over and over, over a period of a couple of weeks because it turned from something that seemed kind of funny into a very, very negative post. And I started posting on his behalf, in defense of him, because I was not OK with the way people were treating him, speaking about him. And I ended up starting to get attacked saying that I was not supportive of women because I allowed him to do that, which if you know anything about me you know that that’s the exact opposite.
“The thing that I tried to really help people understand is that this was a long-standing, over two-year joke between us that happened in the clubhouse. And many other players did it as well. It wasn’t just Kiké. Chase Utley used to jump on a couch and say ‘I’m ready,’ and I thought it was so funny. None of them are ever degrading or said, ‘Oh, don’t wear your heels. What’s wrong with you?’ It was always, they treated me like their sister. Everything was in jest. And I appreciated that.
“And I am really tall. I’m 6-4 in heels. I know that. So if someone wants to make fun of me, I actually think it’s hilarious. I know what I’m doing. I’m aware. And it’s an inside joke that was taken out of context and unfortunately that’s the world of social media. And I’m just so sorry that he had to bear the brunt of that because he didn’t deserve it.”
This is why it’s so important to do research and make sure something is true instead of assuming. That could have been avoided. This didn’t have to go viral like it did. But somebody thought it was deeper than what it was. We have to stop looking for issues when there are none
Since I started by explaining more general things, now I'm going to explain the Paranormal Order and the teams! Maybe a little bit of the characters

Más de 30 lazos de amor, es un proyecto que toma a la figura del amor como basamento catártico, formulado a partir de procedimientos de trabajo colectivo donde me propongo mirar y pensar la forma de vincularnos, utilizando y sugiriendo que la técnica que acompañe la propuesta sea el bordado.
El suceso que originó este proyecto data de 2015, cuando motivada por una profunda y dolorosa ruptura amorosa, di comienzo a la reconstrucción metafórica de mi propio desamor, encontrando en el bordado la herramienta que “arreglaba” eso que sentía destrozado. Esta búsqueda dio lugar a otras: los vínculos amorosos con el resto de las personas de mi vida y la forma que tenemos de demostrarlo, hicieron de mi corazón un gran tejido. Así es que se expandió y me animé a invitar a otros a trabajar. La propuesta fue sencilla: elegir una tela estampada, por gusto, por su textura, por su cuerpo, por lo que quisieran y comenzar a pensar el vínculo que cada uno tiene con el amor; el propio, el ajeno. El amor en todos sus sentidos, sin límites. La idea fue bordar, cortar, romper, descoser, agujerear, hacer lo que cada uno sintiera.
La propuesta es un ritual donde finalmente me reconstruyo en los trabajos de los demás salvándome, por ahora.
¿Dónde van los fondos recaudados?
Hace unos años conocí a Caro Soriano, mujer, fotógrafa, mamá, luchadora; la conocí haciendo fotos en el taller de Gabi Muzzio. Caro a parte de tantas cosas lindas y de que se le hacen agujeritos en los cachetes cuando se ríe, es la Presidenta de la *Fundación FAME Argentina (Familias con Atrofia Muscular Espinal). La misma se encarga de agrupar familias y pacientes afectados con Atrofia Muscular Espinal, que es una enfermedad genética neuronal, caracterizada por la pérdida de músculo esquelético causada por la progresiva degeneración de las células del asta anterior de la médula espinal.
Ella me mostró lo que significa lidiar con una discapacidad desde lo corporal así como también desde lo social. Me mostró la cantidad de cuerpo que hay que poner en una lucha pero sobe todas las cosas me enseñó que sin el amor, que es lo que la sostiene, no podría continuar. Caro es mi más enorme lazo de amor.
Por eso el fin de este proceso de producción, amorosa y catártica es recaudar fondos para que FAME siga luchando y todas estas personas consigan pronto la aplicación de la Spinraza que es la droga que cambiará sus vidas!
Sigamos construyendo lazos de amor, gracias por colaborar!

I'm thinking of something goofy from my Alive Ishimama AU.
So, Mariana tends to say that Takaaki is kinda a bad influence. Given all the smoking he does and how he does have a tendency to curse a whole bunch. And he also tends to make some rude comments here and there. But there's a day when it's her day to have Taka. Takaaki drops their son off to her and leaves.
The day is normal, she's playing with Taka when her sister comes in and yells at her about something. Her sister calls her a "Puta" and she calls her sister a "Puta" as well and her sister leaves. Taka is left saying it. He giggles at how he finds the word funny and calls his mom that. He doesn't know what the word means and it horrifies Mariana as she realizes what she's done. She tries to tell Taka that not to say it or else they'll be in big trouble if Abuela or Abuelo hear him. So he keeps mainly quiet.
It's Monday, Taka hasn't called his mom that since that incident. Takaaki knocks on their door and Taka is happy to see his father. He's squealing and all happy and hugging his dad. Takaaki asks Mariana if he behaved well and they just start talking as Taka plays with Takaaki's coat's collar. The two say their goodbyes and Taka let's out the loudest, "Bye-Bye, Puta!"
Takaaki freezes and Mariana is wide eyed. Takaaki looks at Mariana, then back at a giggling Taka. Takaaki gives her the biggest shit eating grin. Oh, his ears heard right. Kiyotaka Ishimaru, 4 years old, just called his mother a 'Bitch'. And he'd never heard Taka curse before. Who was the bad influence now?
Mariana apologizes and Takaaki says it's okay. Mariana follows them to the car, still apologizing. Takaaki tells her that it's okay, it happens. He finishes strapping Taka into his seat and opens the driver's door. He looks at her, smirking, "Bye-bye, Puta." And gets in, slamming the door shut before she can smack him. He is howling with laughter as she's yelling at him in Spanish.
