THIS!! Yes, Ian and Brian have different personalities but they are one person. People can't expect that just because Ian is the reincarnation of Brian they will have to act the same. No! Brian has been living a life on his own freewill even after meeting Sol but Ian grew up in a hostile environment that condemns him from having magic and not just that he was basically groom by Lorkan to be loyal and follow him. So yes, Ian and Brian are the same person but have different personalities. So there's really little resemblance to them aside from their looks.
they are separate bc they are different people. it doesn’t matter if they share a soul, them having entirely different upbringings is exactly what makes them different people. the only way they can be seen as one and the same is if that’s what ian decides.
They’re two pieces of the same coin, Ian is not a receptacle for Brian’s memories, we can agree on that. I’m pretty sure Ian will accept it, that’s why I find the hostility towards this season and Brian in particular bizarre, we all know its almost certain Ian will accept that he has a past he is unaware and of
I think that’s why people are hostile, they don’t find Ian in Brian. I know I did see some of Ian in Brian, I feel like despite every thing, their “core” is the same, we see it (in my opinion) in some scenes, when he kisses Sol for example.
I just don’t get the hostility cause this is what you get, I’m sorry but season 3 we will get Ian back but he’ll most likely get back his memories and then what ?
I mean people can say whatever they want but this is a well written story and the bashing feels a little much
Some Brian in Ian*** to be more accurate
say your truths queen/ king.
beings here on mangago cant seem to handle reality of things so well
agree to disagree
Brian and Ian are one and the same, Ian had a different upbringing, different life so of course he is going to be different but it doesn’t change the fact that Brian’s memories are his, that Brian’s soul is the same as his, and even in season 1 you can see Brian in Ian.
You all keep separating the two because Ian was against the idea of being Brian, the reaction is natural, he needs time to adjust to the idea, to understand, we’ll see that in season 3. It’s a little like an “amnesia trope”.
Honestly I loved this season.
