why are fenris 2.0 not twins?

I’ve been meaning to write this for a while so here we go. 

Since comic book era, original Fenris, Andreas and Andrea ‘too sexy for my shirt’ von Strucker were twins. Strictly canon speaking, Andreas is their grandfather and the Fenris was passed down to them through him.

But why not make the grandkids twins too? It would have been easy enough to find similar looking actors for Lauren and Andy. So why?

Because they needed to establish them as individuals first.

Twins are symbolically, metaphorically, romantically (not literal romance, but Romanticism e.g. Byronic) two halves of one whole. They shared the womb, there’s nothing closer than that. Even in reality, twins are often extremely close and sometimes excessively dependent on each other. 

But Lauren is Andy’s older sister. It established significant time and space between them. They were relatively close, judging by the few pre-mutant power development scenes, but nowhere near the closeness of twins. They led very different lives and clearly didn’t interact much in school. Lauren literally let him get dragged away by his bullies during the dance. Yeah, blame social pressure or whatever but she did. Had they had that deep connection of twindom, she would have felt for him and would have stormed after them immediately.

All that changed when Fenris awoke.

Think about what they said after they held hands that day in the park and later on. ‘I couldn’t stop thinking about it’. ‘All I want to do is try that again’. All of this built and accumulated to the point of dream sharing and inter-empathetic connection. The writers are basically screaming about how connected these two are. Over and over again, we hear Andy missing Lauren and only Lauren. The only reason we don’t see Lauren losing her shit over him too is because she felt guilty after she murdered people with the Fenris gift.

But their deep, unbreakable connection isn’t based on their sibling relationship. It’s based on their mutant one. And this mutant relationship affected them body and soul, leading them to say things like ‘We belong together’. 

tldr; making them twins would have been too easy and the audience needed to see them as separate people instead of ‘the twins’

That was diabolical.

I totally agree! From myself I can add - the Gestalt was thinking about Myfanwy while he was with Monica. Remember, in a conversation under the bridge, Teddy talked about how Myfanwy touched Eliza and asked how they feel.

By the way, Myfanwy appeared on time in the office, felt that the gelstat decided to change her)))😜

So at first I thought Alex was giving Monica a demonstration on what it's like to feel when you have one mind and four bodies, but then it veered off into affection and flirtation and now I'm completely lost. Like where did that come from? I understand they both felt betrayed by people they loved, but ummm... Alex almost KISSED HER! That scene didn't make any sense and I'm trying to forget it happened.
