Very worried that by the end of this we’re going to lose Ian to Brian. Like Ian will inherit the memories and become more like Brian. It’s the only outcome that justifies this thousand year flashback. But also I would hate it because I prefer Ian over Brian, and him getting the memories and becoming more like Brian would invalidate his entire existence. His deepest insecurities coming true. I feel bad for him because the story, maybe inadvertently, is really coming across like yeah. No one truly cares about you Ian. They only care about Brian and the ML never would have cared for Ian if not for him being a reincarnation. No one cares for Ian, just his ability to become Brian.
Dude you voiced my thoughts out to a TEE,they all want this past version of him well if you can even call it a "version".Two different people and everyone js wants the one who's long gone
