This was wild, because why did it look like Sydney had been cooking in that kitchen for years?!

I'm supposed to believe that Carmen Berzatto would look at a woman who has the big brown eyes of a soulful and charismatic baby seal and be like oh yeah we're 100% coworkers and nothing else?? That his soul does not sing her favorite song???? That his yearning does not grow within the safety of her garden???? That his heart does not soften in her warmth? That he does not sway in her wind or bloom under her sun?? That he does not bask in her rays and wonder how he could have ever lived without it??????????? bffr

Just rewatched "Review" and saw some reactions to the episode and have some thoughts on the idea that "Syd should have apologized."

Firstly, she already did. When Carmy brought the runaway preorders to her attention, her immediate reaction was shock and disbelief, but then she quickly said “I’m sorry --” before Carmy cut her off. So she acknowledged her mistake and tried to apologize for it. But Carmy wasn’t hearing it because he was already starting to freak out.

Secondly, actions >>> words. Syd showed accountability by putting 110% into trying to fix/manage an impossible situation. But her feelings of guilt + Carmy blaming and excoriating her + the extreme stress of the situation caused her to spiral. Not to mention at certain points Carmy just shut her down when she was trying to help. Ultimately, she quit when she realized how futile the situation was.

Thirdly, Carmy shares blame for the preorders getting out of control. Syd brought the device and didn’t change the settings, but Carmy set it up that morning and left it running without checking it. I think he did that because he had so much blind faith that Syd already had it covered, which is lowkey sweet but also tragic given how he behaved the rest of the episode.

Finally – and most importantly – this was an IMPOSSIBLE situation. They did not have the time nor the ingredients to fill up all those orders, and the orders kept piling up like crazy. Even the best crew in the world would have failed to make 200+ sandwiches in less than 10 minutes.

Restaurants cancel preorders all the time, and The Beef had a good excuse, they could’ve just said that their preorder device was brand new and glitching out, then maybe offer the customers a free meal.

But Carmy refused to face reality and set the tone for the rest of the team: angry, impatient, scattered, and pointing fingers at each other instead of working together.

Anyway Syd did the best she could in that situation but it was out of her control. Like Carmy, she's high-strung, takes failure very personally, and internalizes others' feelings. But she's normally able to counterbalance Carmy's intensity with her gentleness, and as Tina pointed out in that episode, Syd was NOT acting in character ("this isn't you!"), which serves to emphasize just how extreme the situation was.

but he needed to talk to her before he opened the letter. he needed. to talk to her. before. he opened the letter. crouching, trembling in an alley, clutching a piece of paper dude is frozen and he’s like let me text this person I know is gonna tell me to fuck off. carmy didn’t even ask for or expect syd’s forgiveness. he just needed to know that she would acknowledge his existence at all after that day. he just needed to hear from her. carmy said sydney could punch me in the face and I’d thank her. and that’s- THAT’S- HE’S-

"About the Blogger" meme

Thank u sm for tag @cruciomione!!

Star Sign(s): Cancer sun, Libra moon and Leo rising (i couldn't explain it i you asked, tho)

Favorite Holidays: Christmas and New Years i love how crazy people go about decorations and seems like there's no end to imagination. Also it's that time of the year i have the most delicious food and share quality time with my family. And New Years's so special bc i get to celebrate with friends and usually the parties are lit.

Last Meal: A strawberry delight crepe as a 'well done' gift from me to me or not dying during my exams and finishing them all, yayyy

Current Favorite Musician: i always find it hard to just mention one, so here goes my top three rn: coco jones, the maine and rbd (latin pop band).

Last Music Listened To: back to life by lawson. this one scratches my brain like no other.

Last Movie Watched: me and one of my closest friends do this list of christmas movies every year bc we love christmas movies, no matter how awful and cringe they are. last night i watched 'exmas' with leighton meester and robbie amell and i was surprised that it wasn't the worst, so it's a win in my book.

Last TV Show Watched: it was this week's episode of fellow travelers. jonathan bailey and matt bomer are breaking my heart in a million little pieces, but i think it worth it?? it's so so so sad and tragic but they do such a great job portraying hawk and skippy's story.

Last Book/Fic Finished: i wanted distract myself from my daily problems so i reread 'remember me, remebering you' by amiera_saphire on ao3 last weekend.

Last Book/Fic Abandoned: i prefer the term 'hiatus'. i have a jatp fic that i never really finished and the thought of it hunts me.

Currently Reading: a very boring article on managerial finance i have to write on by friday (my last assignment of the year, yay!). i hated it, so i came here to get enough endorfins to go back to it.

Last Thing Researched for Art/Writing/Hyperfixation: ships in the 1800's, also dresses of that time period so i can better my shitty description in my period fic. i only had an idea and a dream on that one.

Favorite Online Fandom Memory: uhh i think it was back in the cursed years (2020, eww) and after i watched julie and the phantoms i found some really good people here and on twitter. our day consisted in checking every news outlet about the show and pics, videos about them. also the fics were so incredibly good!! those were fun times.

Favorite Old Fandom You Wish Would Drag You Back In/Have A Resurgence: arrowverse when it was good, maybe? idk but olicity had a choke on me in a concerning way. but then it went bad, so bad, and i suffered through until arrow ended and stopped watching the shows.

Favorite Thing You Enjoy That Never Had an Active or Big "Fandom" but You Wish It Did: felicity. it's mainly bc it's such an old show and bc of that, no one is really talking about it anymore, but it was my shit when i 'discovered' back in college.

Tempting Project You're Trying to Rein In/Don't Have Time For: i'll quote @cruciomione about the multi chapter fics, i feel you! one shots are better for me bc i can just write my idea down.

i've been working on a multi chapter about a second chance/lovers-to-strangers-to-lovers. i love the angst i have panned out in my head lol maybe during the break it could revisit it.

loved doing this!!

tagging some ppl to do this too, only if you want!

You make me better at this.

Idk if anyone has pointed this out here but Carmy saying Syd is not alone is a direct reponse to when she says to her dad she's not alone cause she has a partner, right?

[happylikeasadsong]

Now I came across a scene purely created in my head that made me laugh ahuahauaha Carmy impulsively kissing Syd in front of someone and Syd like "well... he's Italian, it's his culture to do that kind of thing🤷‍♀️" and Carmy all red like "yeah yeah culture😏🙈"

i think only sydney could make carmy to pda and that's power right there.

but also, i sooo want to see this version of carmy, i think i just have to go to ao3 until the writers stop being cowards and give us what they deserve.
