What makes KP the series special to me personally is how details works. At first it might seem nothing more as…
AN OTHER AMAZING READ MY BABY ♥ I'd like to add something that has been pondering my mind today and making me tear up, Vegas was in enemy territory, very aware of the mortal danger, yet he chose vulnerability, he was shot from the back but he didn't think twice before turning around when Pete asked him to, he CHOSE to be weak and because of it, he made himself a target to other attacks and I think this was something Vegas was fully aware of, he knew that the second he turns around, his walls will crumble by the sight of his awaited love, he knew he was in danger and this is when Pete sees Vegas' flippant cruelty for what it is; an armour. An shield that he's been wearing since childhood and he dropped it all for Pete only to be thrown on the ground from a stranger and all of this while catching a glimpse of Pete's smile and to him, it was worth it.
About the fish bowl's, there were originally three of them but ended with two on his desk, the chess metaphors are mainly about his war with Kan but now we have beta fishes that are often pitted against each other, it implies that Korn sees Kinn and Porsche as the new pets he has a control over. Korn is a horrible person. He's pretending to be this old, peaceful man while we know he's scheming and plotting some evil shit. 🖐
I can't get Vegas' face out of my head. When he finally thinks he is succeeding only to discover he broke himself in the process. You can pinpoint the exact second his world falls down around him, and it's so damn agonizing and beautiful to see him beg for pete and then realizing he has stolen too much from him, he's unworthy of such an angelic presence. He knows, but still he pleads with gentle hands. Vegas sees his reflection through Pete's eyes - all of his pain and loneliness now passed on to the man he loves, he transmitted Pete all of his agony, he crushed him
Sighs, it has been clarified he doesn't have Stockholm Syndrome, their relationship revolves around a toxic complexity…
Yes, its been in notice that pete was somehow attracted to vegas beforehand, the reason behind his constant flinching in the prior episodes before he was captivated was due to his attraction, he wasn't scared of vegas, he was afraid of the feelings vegas was evoking in him. Pete found his common ground and then tapped into a much darker side of himself that is actually attracted to Vegas’s violence also makes sense without glorifying abductees and assault survivors falling in love with their abusers.Moreover Pete has never once thought that what Vegas is doing is right, he acknowledges the bad behavior and even points them out more than once, he is perfectly capable of going against Vegas and this alone already takes out the possibility of him having Stockholm Syndrome. An other thing is that Pete is a trained bodyguard, he is stronger than you think, he himself tortured and killed people so this is not new, he knows how this works. Then there is their body language, Stockholm Syndrome IS A COPING MECHANISM and Pete is not helpless, in the contrary he has the power in this situation and Vegas is the one who is weak. HE KNOWS he needs to get away from Vegas -- He is not in denial and one of the important components in Stockholm Syndrome is the belief that your captivator is in fact your savior which isn't the case with Pete, he knows Vegas is not doing any good.
The only argument here would be Trauma bonding but this thing occurs often so I don't consider it that significant. Usually the hostage parties develops negative feelings towards the one's that are attempting rescue them and this isn't the case because like I said, Pete tried to escape which is something a person with a Stockholm syndrome wouldn't do, not to that extend. Also these individuals are generally not harmed by their captors and may even be treated with kindness but we saw Vegas hurt Pete not just imprisoned him so it's really unlikely. After all it's a fictional character so people making this assumption is okay but I don't think they have any source of material to justify it as a fact like many tried before. If that's your perspective then that's fine but realistically speaking Pete would not be diagnosed with it, many professional therapists broke this down in the comment section but after all, it's a free view

Its sad that a man comes between us, we are supposed to be an united fandom but before that we have to be WOMEN and know our priorities instead of spending our time defending a celebrity that doesn't even know we exist
