The narrator breaks down everyone's reactions.

I hope someone writes a horror fic where the dateables have to suffer through an estate sale. It'd be like the adult version of the yard sale scene from Toy Story.

The immovable characters ( Celica, Florence, Dorian, Wallace) kinda have to watch.

I have a mild obsession with Dr. Simi, and I thought he'd look cool displayed next to this vintage first aid box. The cigarettes are there because I like the casual horror printed on the labels.

I ended up using the funeral stand as a mini vanity. It really helps with romantacizing my morning routine.

Yard sale finds #27

A funeral stand meant to hold prayer cards and registry books during a Catholic funeral. It is silver tone metal with a wooden inlay, removable red velvet cushion, and a removable crucifix. The candles are most likely not the original, and I ended up scooping the wax out of the glass and replacing it with red candles.

Brand: No hallmarks. Possibly Holland Brass

Time period: possibly from the 1930s - 1940s

Condition: The velvet is dusty, and the crucifix is held by only 1 screw.

Bought from: My local funeral home

Bought for: $100

Original price: unknown, I've seen this piece sold for at least $400 on second-hand sites.

Date bought: May 8th, 2024

That part in the Cafe when Sofia cleaned the ice cream form katyas face was everything. It showed Katya that she was deserving of tenderness, that she too was lovable. The music I'm that scene still uses the violins but the piano is used in a whole new way. It's no longer deep and sinister but light and playful. The lighting also reflects the scene and become a golden yellow.

Up until thus point Katya didn't have a symbolic color, really only dressing in white, black and gray, but now she's bathed in warmth.

Thus scene, despite being so short, is used to show what Katya could have had with Sofia. Which makes it so much sadder when she leaves Sofia at the train station.

Ice Pick Joe being an extreme American sterorype is clearly a metaphor used to show how privileged Americans do not belong in discussions regarding life in the USSR. His rudeness is used to show how ignorant U.S. politicians often talk down to every day Russian citizens in a condescending matter without attempting to understand the culture at the time.

Ice Pick Joe's unwillingness to emphasize and see Russians as human is what e eventually leads to him hurting Katya.
