I get the sense that (yes, creepy AF) David Birkin might have grown up around Sophie since there is some kind of family connection, even if it’s loose. That’s obviously how she and Benedict originally met. But, in honesty, that whole type of trust fund crew no doubt have taken turns with each other. Just the way those groups roll.

Same. They do share some ancestor, but so does she and Benedict…far enough removed to not even show up at the same family reunion. And you stare not kidding about “incestuous” circled in that type of group. I mean, think if it like relationships in certain cliques back in High School. They pretty much dated in their clique/circle, so they pretty much just traded partners.
David Birkin is more closely related to SoFail however. Furthermore? He appears to be an MKUltra Handler, his dad Andrew Birkin must have taught him well. Who broke Benedict and likely SoFail when they were teenagers? The Birkins, the SRA they’re into involves breaking every taboo you can think of. Remember how SoFail wore David’s coat during TCW premiere? How he always appeared when SoFail needed backup? David is SoFail’s lover and Handler, she’s a tool that was used to tighten his grip on Benedict. Benedict was programmed to be a slave that the Birkins etc could exploit indefinitely…
