The people that yell trauma bond about every single Nick and June interaction are so funny to me because they don’t even understand the definition of a trauma bond.

It’s a bond that develops between a person and the person that has harmed them. June has a trauma bond and it’s with Serena Joy but I never see them complaining about that relationship.

Nick is the person that helped her survive. He has never intentionally done anything to harm her. (I know people are freaked out about the betrayal spoiler, but I still don’t believe he’s gonna do anything to intentionally bring harm to her) In fact he’s put himself in harms way several times to protect her and now her husband. They have showed us over and over again that June fell in love with Nick and it was not just in that in that set circumstance because she went back to her husband and she’s still in love with Nick.

I do realize that some people are going to choose to see Nick as one dimensional when he’s one of the most nuanced characters and that’s fine. You don’t think he good for June? Great. But stop using big words to negate their relationship because it doesn’t work

The Handmaid's Tale | 6.03 Devotion

So many moments in episode 3 made me giggle & kick my feet

1.June’s reaction when Mark said Nick would show up bc he knows June is there

2. Just like every word Nick Blaine uttered. That man is a top tier yearner my god. The line about Rose smelling it on him when he thinks of June, him telling June that he was at the hospital and became a spy just so he could see her…..every single word was so good.

3. The look on Luke’s face when he saw it was Nick who saved them especially after crying about not wanting June to know he failed. Like omg how embarrassing

4. June essentially shooing away her husband so she could say goodbye to her boyfriend
