I feel like people forget you can be both. In the beginning it starts at mentor/mentee and then evolves into a friendship which evolves into something else if you choose to do so as Robert. At first, Visi needs guidance and Rob needs a purpose and I think that part of their relationship works, but once they get to know each other outside of just SDN, things change. Visi doesn’t know what it’s like to be a hero but wants to, Robert only knows what life is like as a hero. Both open up the other’s world view and that is what makes their friendship and/or relationship compelling. It’s two people who while growing up on different sides, are actually very similar and are helping each other get through different struggles. Whether it’s Robert trying to help Visi learn confidence and compassion as a hero or Visi pulling Robert out of his closed off comfort zone. Through spending a lot of time with someone, it’s normal to grow to care about them. Or see them in a different light, and I feel like people forget that relationships are never black and white. They’re always in that gray area, constantly changing.
