Shady Mariah headcanon/possible actual canon

wannabanauthor:

So Shades saw Mariah murder Cornell, which probably means that he overheard their conversation.

So he knows why Mariah killed Cornell, but he never brought it up to her or told her that he knew.  He just reassures that she was in the right in killing him.

Shades grew up in the streets of Harlem, went to prison, and even he KNOWS that it is NEVER the victim’s fault.

And he lets her know that, in his own subtle way.

Also, in their last scene together when she kisses him, he gives her that control and doesn’t make any moves other than that big smile.

This means everything to me.

Given what we now know about him I wonder if he can sympathize because he’s had people use his sexuality to victim blame him for similar situations.

one of my favorite things about marvels luke Cage is they got misty and luke being friends and helping each other out even tho they fucked and it’s not about trying to get back together or moving in on “Claire’s man” or anything

Right? This show has actual grownups in it.

And the grown up characters have grown up conversations that make them seem like real people.

Am i wrong or did he start dressing better?

Season1

Season2

Btw can you imagine him at the store?? Getting some ties or his sunglasses. Can he get out of small talk and “would you like our rewards card?” Like how would that go i need to see this

Maybe Mariah was paying for all his new suits.
