#ok hot take: connor didnt deserve to die and he also didnt deserve the weight of ''important character dying''

[suddenrundown]

me reading one salt sea: oh my god connor go away

connor: *fucking dies*

me: oh no im--that’s not what i meant

#ok hot take: connor didnt deserve to die and he also didnt deserve the weight of ''important character dying'' #he isn't important To Me like genuinely i tried so hard to care about connor but i never did. possibly because he has no personality #beyond ''was in love with toby and still is'' #and then he dies and toby's sad and im ike ok well.....moving on now #i feel very uncharitable about this but i cant help it sorryyyyyyyy #lol the ludaig really told toby ''he isn't worth your tears'' and im like SHE IS SO RIGHT THO HE REALLY ISN'T #ALSO DID CONNOR REALLY HAVE TO DIE TO MAKE WAY FOR TYBALT TIME AS IF HE WASN #'T THE MOST OBVIOUS CHOICE OF LOVE INTEREST THE ENTIRE GOD DAMN TIME HELLO? #I HAVE THOUGHTS AND FEELINGS #it sucks actually like thanks i hate it #in the meantime toby and tybalt have kissed twice (i think? maybe 3 idk) both of which were initiated without toby consenting or whatever #which i think is because author ma'am wants tybalt to be a bad boy but he actually isn't?? and he's such a gentleman in every other regard #what the hell is up with that mcguire? it sucks! it sucks #like its fine its played off as hot or whatever and she's into it because she's in love with him and has been since book 2 but it sucks #and this is the hill im willing to die on
