Witchvspatriarchy - Witches Vs Patriarchy

When the boys are looking at the basement, searching for Peter, and Ryan hears something, the way Shane asks if he wistled it’s very casual, I don’t think he was making fun of Ryan or something. But the moment he realizes Ryan is serious about it after he yells, he stays silent and looking at him at first.

He right away starts making his funny voices, lookinig around as he starts a new bit. It cracks Ryan up in a second. And Shane keeps doing it until the man is laughing out loud and he’s no longer yelling and being frustrated for the sound.

Shane always, always searches a way to make the situation lighter for the two of them. And you can see it too, just to say another example, during the Hannah Williams episode, as they are in the master room and then the kid’s room.

He sees Ryan is getting tense and more nervous as they keep investigating. He first make the stupid yell that ″spooks ghosts″ and then ‘fights’ the whatever that is talking to Ryan in the room, laughing at its answers while Ryan looks at him to see his reactions. Both things immedately make Ryan laugh as well:

During the Lighthouse episode, later when Ryan is so visibly upset by what happened on his solo investigation, he doesn’t make fun of him. Shane checks on him and calmly says, well congrats. He knows that Ryan is nervous and it’s not the time to fight him on shit. I bet they did discuss it later, but in that moment what mattered was that Ryan was sweating, uneasy, and Shane keeps himself as calm as possible and just checks on him, and listens to him.

Aaaand this is why Shane is the best, and why the show works. He disagrees with Ryan, he doesn’t believe, but he believes in Ryan’s fear and anxiety, he believes in what upsets him because all Ryan is feeling is right there. It may be initiated by things he personally consider stupid, but the way his friend feels will never be stupid.

At the end of the day, Shane respects Ryan very much, he really loves his friend, which is also why Ryan feels so comfortable with him and it’s able to forget he is those terrible-for-him places, because Shane makes it easier to bare.

Their dynamic, as the seasons go by, has only gotten stronger and, like they have said before themselves, deeper. And it’s really exciting to see it on screen.

a hero emerges 

Recently a couple of the autistic kids I work with have inspired me with openly, unapologetically owning it.

Like one kid saying “if I don’t make eye contact it’s because I find that hard and it’s easier to concentrate on what you’re saying if I’m not looking at you.”

And another one asking for clarification of an ambiguous statement to check understanding instead of just hoping for the best.

And one saying “I’m going to stim now, this conversation is hard”

I have so much respect for them for being able to voice those things! It’s inspired me to try harder to do that instead of masking until I meltdown because I’m so scared of how people will react.
