ULTIMATE BROMANCE. They can bond over their respective weird shit and dad all the teens, it'll be great!
Had to be talked out of bringing five home with her. They have enough animals as it is, okay.
You know, quite possibly, at least a little? I think it would take a while for him to get there at all, just because it's been such a significant part of his life from the time he was quite young and something he was so devoted to, and I think he'll probably always remain devoted to it, but it's — what happens at the end of canon kind of embodies it, actually, if that makes sense. He still believes in the cause just as much, just not necessarily in the execution of those ideals (and he is extremely idealistic, and significantly younger than they seem to be casting the role, both of which mean it's likely that he could, down the line, have a slightly more balanced viewpoint). Like, he'll always identify as a communist, and he is not even a little bit about this capitalistic nonsense, but also possibly not everything was carried out quite the way it should have been. (Which I think is also a little implied in canon anyway — there's that bit where the girls who auditioned come to tell him about what they're doing at the palace, and he says that "next time" he sees them soliciting, he won't look the other way, suggesting that he's done so before? So it's possible that he's not quite as, uh, harsh as some of his colleagues. HE HAS A SENSE OF HUMOR, OKAY.)
