No you don’t get it okay Fabian is his father’s son through and through. He worships him. His father told him to be tough and so he got tough, his father told him to not to be vulnerable and so he was never vulnerable. He wanted to cut a man’s heart out to make a point. He lost his eye, he killed his dad. Just like his father before him. Fabian Seacaster is an extension of William Seacaster, he is his legacy, he even wears his eyepatch.
But the thing is is that Fabian Seacaster also is not his father. They are one and the same and yet they are nothing alike. Because see, Fabian grew up so very loved, and he loved so much in return. I’m willing to bet old Bill Seacaster had nothing like that. The simple fact of Fabian growing up loving his father with such intensity proves that Fabian is nothing like Bill! Because I do not think Bill really knew love like that, love with that intensity, until Fabian was born. Despite all the dysfunction in his family, Fabian knew what it was to love and be loved from day 1. That doesn’t mean he knows how to say it - he’s his father’s son after all, and admitting to love is admitting to weakness, which is of course inexcusable. But he knows it anyway. So when he does make friends, he can love and respect and protect them with all his life, and they do the same in return. And in that he is nothing like his father. In that he is better. And at the end of it all, in a final moment of vulnerability, his father admits that he’s proud of him for that, proud that Fabian is different. But Fabian is still his father’s son. So he destroys the evidence

WANT SOME RANDOM FACTS? TOO BAD, YOU’RE GETTING THEM ANYWAY.
Ben Platt, the original Evan in Dear Evan Hansen’s cast that he wore on closing night sold for $10k
Ben Platt’s favorite breakfast cereal is Cinnamon Toast Crunch (I SAW IT IN AN INTERVIEW I SWEAR I DONT STALK THIS POOR MAN)
The difference between nerd and geek is that Geeks are more of a fictional sense, where they would prefer to live in fictional worlds, while nerds are more likely to know more facts
The Dursley’s (from Harry Potter) ran for the best kept lawn award 10 times, and won 3.
Gilderoy Lockhart (also from Harry Potter) was a three-time winner of Witches Weekley’s best smile award
In Harry Potter, the whole ‘werewolves are bad’ wasn’t an allergory for racism, but instead for people with HIV or AIDS.
(I think I should note here that I do not support JK Rowling as a person at all. As a part of the LGBTQ+ community, her beliefs are sickening to me. But the books have been such a big part of my life, and got me into fandoms, and are just kinda welded into me, so I think it would be impossible for me to leave it behind completely. I’ll talk about this more in a future post.)
In the Original Broadway version of Hairspray, the male ensemble would jump over the orchestra onto a narrow platform in front of them during Nicest Kids In Town
Rainbow Rowell has an amazing Tumblr where all she talks about are her characters, and I fricking love it-
We share 70-75% of our DNA with a banana
Anne Bolyne, the 2nd wife of King Henry the 8th had a 6th finger (and was beheaded after being accused of ‘seducing’ the king using witchcraft), and was also cousins to King Henry’s 5th wife, Katherine Howard.
Continuing that note, Catherine Parr, Henry’s 6th wife, married Thomas (I think that was his 1st name?) Seymour, who, yes, was Jane Seymour (Henry’s 3rd wife)’s brother. (History is fucked up, man)
It’s legal to marry your cousin in ‘specific situations’ in most states. This law existed long before the gay marriage law passed. (I hate America)
AAAAND FINALLY the US’ 3rd Vice President, Aaron Burr, had to ban snacks on the senate floor because the president (Thomas Jefferson) kept trying to make people eat his new invention, Macaroni and Cheese (I think that was the reasoning, I could only remember the fact that he had to ban snacks and I like to think it was everyone’s favorite macaroni dumbasses fault) (oh yeah in case you didn’t know that, T-JEFF CREATED MAC N CHEESE. I LOVE THAT FACT SO MUCH HOLY SHIT)
