the scene is being heavily coded that ontari will be doing something abusive OR nonconsensual with murphy and.

emphatic nonononono.

maybe they are into BDSM or whatever.

no. nononononono. no no no no no. no. nononono. no. very emphatic no.

1. that in no way makes anything ok, 2. murphy and ontari are going to be playing at bdsm kink, something that's supposed to lie heavily in trust (at least, when it's portrayed correctly...*side eyes 50sog*), when they've known each other for like??? 3 days at most??

if she wants Murphy to be a part of the Kinky Sex^TM that everyone seems to be so sure he’s into (for some reason I don’t really understand), then she has a couple of things she has to do/ should have already done:

''Let Murphy have a real choice in the matter. Free him from the chains SHE put him in. Let him leave the palace if he wants to. Let him leave the city if he wants to. Don’t threaten to kill him because he knows something about her that could threaten her position. Stop being a threat to him. Stop having any ulterior motives for sleeping with him in the first place.''

And finally, after ALL of the reasons she has power over him and he’s obligated to do the impossible to survive have shattered, only THEN can she ask him if he’d love to have beautiful Kinky Sex^TM with her.

Also: if he says no, she’s not allowed to kill him, maim him, hurt him, shun him, make an example of him for the Sky People to understand what someone who displeases her gets in return.

IS the power dynamic and OBVIOUS disadvantage Murphy’s in right now persists, then it’s not kinky sex, but straight up coercion or blackmail (depends on the context).

im tired, just look through this person's blog. season 3 is just a mess. it's a freaking mess. and if """"johntari"""" happens im officially dropping the show. here
