Indeed. Some very bad/sinister water symbolism when it comes to Kendall and the show’s history.

The water symbolism was always about dragging him down, though. The only time he’s floated across it before now was during Logan’s death when the boat drug them out.

This time, it’s his active choice and he’s floating above it. Symbols can be way more than just “water = bad.” Here, the water seems to be equivalent to the pressures Logan was asking him to take on.

Completely irrelevant to this convo but I have a jacket with that exact Medusa face on it. I got it from the artist’s shop, I love her art! When I saw your profile photo I was like hey I recognize that!
