I feel like we don’t give barnabas bennett enough credit because he literally looked a rich and powerful man right in the eye in order to laugh at him and tell him to bring their debt up with the courts. the gall. the drive. the willingness to just do that. like sure it got him killed but how was he supposed to know that the lukases fed people to the physical embodiment of lonelieness. i wish i could tell my landlord to go fuck themselves with that level of confidence.
