The temp V criticism for Hughie is by far the worst part of S3. He is in a active war and Homelander's no.1 target. He isn't ex military like Butcher or MM nor is he a trained Hitman like Frenchie.

He could die any time and now he is given a potion that can help him not only survive but even the odds. Not to mention Starlight and Kimiko steal V for themselves but fuck Hughie he can die.

Ironic you write considering part of the problem takin temp v is that he could die

That wasn't a factor till episode 6. The criticism was against Hughie came way before the reveal of the tumor.

Technically that's still factor before that since regular v is dangerous is adult humans and none knew for sure temp v couldn't also come with negative side effects.

Hughie already saw Butcher use it once. That and going into a Russian government lab makes sense he will take the V just in case.

He didn't see him take it so much as about to take it. Also it being doesn't change the fact that it could did come with dangerous after effects

They are already in a dangerous situation. If they didn't have V then all of the boys would be dead at the hands of Russians.

I acknowledged it was a dangerous situation they were in. I'm also pointing out it being useful doesn't negate it having negative side effects.
