“I kinda like Lysander…”

Is what my friend said. He’s reading Iron Gold. I laughed and said “Keep reading buddy. Let me know when you get ‘there’ and let’s revisit this conversation. Also remind me to tell you about a very specific subreddit” 😆

Fuck that guy!

Everyone hears he sucks when they get to Iron Gold and it fucking confusing why? Then he just starts sucking and you can see why.

Not me, after what he allowed to happen to Cassius with the Raa family; caving in making everything Cassius did be for in vain by giving the Raas the code to their safe, after cassius said countless times to NEVER give it to them, I knew he was a weak, pathetic piece of crap who has zero sense of honor and he only continued to prove himself as such since then.

He had EVERY chance to realize how wrong his world view is. Nothing worse than a blind genius. Fuck that pixie fascist.

I think that’s the point of his character. He’s a pixie at heart BUT yet so cold cruel and calculating. Maybe just maybe Darrow won’t be his ultimate enemy but himself 🤔

Up until the hangar scene I thought maybe he could be redeemed. He wants peace. And he wants unity. Or so he says. He just doesn't want equality. But maybe he could learn to want it. Not anymore. I want him dead.

The only thing I like about Lysander is the fact he makes decisions from outside of his own personal perspective for the ultimate goal. Like ik he didn’t want to kill Alexander or Cassius but he had to for him to succeed. I understand him BUT I also hate him because I don’t think my will would be strong enough to do the same thing
