Guys we all in this together right š
Some may be apprehensive that Severance wonāt portray Markās interaction with Helena in the tent as the sexual assault it was. But not only will they ā they already are.
Markās behavior toward Helly has completely changed. He doesnāt sit next to her at Irvingās funeral. He shuts down attempts at conversation with offhand, vague snarky comments and a defiantly blank facial expression. When Helly knocks on the door to the bathroom, his eyes dart around like an animal cornered. Where he once would have slowed down for her in the hallway so they could talk, he walks much faster ahead. Heās trying as hard as possible to avoid her. To ignore her. To run away.
Now contrast this with his treatment of āHellyā when she first walked out of the elevator in season two. He waited for her to arrive! He was so relieved sheād come back! And when they were walking down that hallway and he was explaining the situation with Ms. Casey, he stopped mid-stride, turned to her with a smile on his face, and said āLook, Hellyāā
He never got to finish that sentence. But some say he was going to confess that though his outie had a wife, his affections lay with her. And I think theyāre right.
So why is he acting so differently now? The answer is obvious: āBecause they are smarter than us, okay? They know everything.ā
After the assault, Mark likely feels like a complete idiot. He spent so much of season one deconstructing his beliefs and breaking free from Lumonās propaganda. And the minute he believes heās immune to their lies and no longer a corporate slave, he is taken advantage of and hoodwinked by the very figurehead of said company, masking as someone he loves.
A symbol of Lumon convinced him he was safe. Tricked him. Invaded him in the most intimate way possible, with him completely oblivious, ālike an idiot.ā Right when he thought everything might be okay.
So maybe Lumonās right. Maybe thereās no point in fighting. Because if he was stupid enough to not realize his own friend was being possessed by her billionaire doppelgƤnger, then maybe Lumon is correct about innies being nothing more than pawns. Maybe they are people, and he really is⦠not. (Thatās how Helena treated him, anyway.)
And if thatās the case, of course he wants to give up looking for Ms. Casey and lose himself in work! For a moment he thought he was a human being, deserving of autonomy over his own body and capable of something more than sitting behind a desk ā but his assault sends that all crashing down. He is an extension of his outie, made for work and nothing more. Going beyond that gets dangerous. Thatās what got Irving killed⦠and him in Helenaās tent. And Helly? He cannot trust Helly. As far as he knows, his only confirmed moment with Helly since the OTC was when he was holding her in his arms, his jacket wrapped around her shoulders. Why should it be Helly coming back to the severed floor? If Helena could trick him before, who says she canāt learn from her past mistakes and trick him again over and over? Mark refuses to be humiliated and hurt after last time, so he avoids her (and Dylan!) and puts up a barrier of cool, snarky indifference ā just like how he deals with grief.
But we know that indifference is a mask. When Milchick walked out of the elevator after revealing he knew about him and Helena Eagan, Mark had no one to pretend for ā and he went completely stiff, blankly wide-eyed in an expression extremely reminiscent of his usual innie self. Whatever the reasons for this, one thingās for sure: Mark does deeply care about what happened in the tent. And at least for now, he will lose himself in Cold Harbor to cope with it.
Lumon certainly got their productive worker back. But good Lord⦠at what cost?
King Morgott the Grace Giving and his quite suspicios advisor that tend to appear out of nowhere surrounded by some blood cultists. We only hope he doesn`t have any bad impact on our lord
Not realy a "human au" but a disguise versions for different occasions. I like to think Morgott sometimes have to appear in front of people as, well, Morgott the King and Mohg simply likes to be part of Morgott`s ruling because A) he doesnt see a king but this messy homeless looking brother that trying his best to pretend he`s a king which includes to look good and wear proper king clothes and he hates every second of it B) anything interesting can happen and who knows how he can use it I have a very bad time with human-Mohg because every time i color he looks weird with that beard, some random pirate that has nothing to do with mohg lol
Mouthwashing Good end! Jimmy they could never make me like you
