jason, leo and piper are the most “cohesive” friend trio in the series and are also the friend group which got split apart in the worst way :(

i mean there’s fate and prophecy, and being brought together on purpose by powers far greater and older than you to fulfill destiny—having a whole friendship created for the sole purpose of Saving The World. But you’re kids. Lonely, sad kids. Square one in this great grand destiny you’ve been promised.

Teenagers with immense trauma, and secrets you cling to desperately, because you’ve never had someone to tell them to before—but there’s someone now. Someone who will support you wordlessly, who’s just as lost as you, just as wrecked. You’re going to save the world, but you’re also going to make the stupidest inside jokes that only you will find funny. Miraculously, you’ve found seemingly the only two other people in the world who find them funny. You’re going to think “okay, you know what? This is what family is, this is what love is, this is what a second chance at happiness is—“ and you’re split apart by those same powerful, old forces, this time for no reason at all.

The world is saved, and your time together is up and you’re back at square one.
