ward never threatened to rape her.

[(Anonymous)]

Actually yeah, he did.

"You're right, Skye. You woke up a weakness inside me. And for the first time in a while, I wanted something for myself. Maybe I'll just take what I want, wake up something inside of you."

It's not explicit, but it's pretty clearly there...

[(Anonymous)]

No, that's pretty clearly your interpretation of his words. Your mind jumped immediately to rape. I have always believed he is referring to his earlier conversation with Raina about waking up the monster inside Skye so she'll be able to understand him. And oh look, [Spoiler] Raina as good as confirmed this in the most recent episode.

No one but tumblr and Dreamwidth fans are talking about this supposed rape threat as if it was canon. The fact that no one on the writers' side as much as mentioned it should tell you that your Interpretation is fanon.

[(Anonymous)]

He's still talking about taking away her agency, violating her by waking something inside of her that she does not want, and he's most definitely being threatening in his approach. I don't think it's a leap to say his intentions weren't anything good.

[dragonimp]

I dunno, I'd say that's deliberately ambiguous and wide open for that interpretation. Yeah, it can be read in a completely non-sexual non-rapey way, but I'd be surprised if the writers weren't aware of the undertones.

[(Anonymous)]

Your interpretation is just as fanon as mine.

Why would the writers mention it?

Why would waking up the monster inside Skye, which as you said has been revealed to be the whole Inhuman thing in the most recent episode, make her more likely to understand Ward's entirely human monstrosities?

As previous comments say, this is a threat to violate her and remove her agency. Considering Ward's other actions in that episode towards May, the fact that he's romantically interested in Skye and had already kidnapped her... the subtext is there, and a valid interpretation.
