I just saw something on Tumblr which did upset me (I should know to be more careful but I was curious…). A former SF/Neal fan decided they hated Neal this episode because he didn’t react enough to his father’s death and just stood there. Hello? Are we even watching the same show!?! Not everyone is going to react the same way first of all. Secondly, did you see his face!?! He was broken, devastated, in shock! Nealfire is not overtly emotional. He isn’t going to suddenly burst into tears and start sobbing like crazy. He’s just not that type. I can understand because neither am I. I personally just lost my own father this summer. And it’s still hard to talk about but I didn’t cry at first. In fact it took me several days, only at his memorial service and his funeral did I cry but it still wasn’t sobbing but the tears wouldn’t stop. That doesn’t mean I didn’t love him. It doesn’t mean I didn’t care. It just means that we all react differently to tragedy. To assume that Neal didn’t love his father because he wasn’t “emotional” enough. Ugh! It kills me. If you don’t understand Neal, fine but don’t paint him to be this emotionless person because you don’t get him. Sorry, rant over.
