i love karhan and the way his character is written sooo so much, like i know there's a lot of characters that basically has the same trope that he does but the way karhan is spefically written felt so unique and it felt so realistic. and yes, i fucking hate karhan's mother but oh my god, the way his backstory is built, how he do stuff for the sake of being loved, how him being neglected had made him so starved for love and made him a people pleaser (which is curb by his assistant lmao), it felt so perfect
and the way that even after war, he doesn't lose that kindness nor does he suddenly become fearless to stand up against his mother. the fact that he, strong as he is, still struggled to deal with his mother is so painful but also hit so close to home for me because god knows it doesn't matter how strong you get, it somehow felt like you turned into a helpless child the moment you tried to stand up for yourself against your toxic parents
and i love when he knock on his mother's door, trying to tell her that he's now with ilya bloden. i felt so proud of him, of how that simple moment felt so heavy and meaningful bcuz that's literally the first time iirc that he actually stated something to his mother that was strongly against her wishes (at first) and i know that take a hell lot of courage
