see on the one hand i do think it is somewhat important that none of the merrily trio ever got involved with one another because so much of the show is about the simmering tension of frank as the ever-unavailable, out-of-reach rising star that mary and charley are both always yearning for but can never truly have............ but also, selfishly, i do think it would be really fun to write a fic where they have an ill-advised threesome one night and all three of them emerge from it kind of shaken up, not for any of the reasons you'd expect, but because it's incredibly unsettling how good it was and how right it felt. and they all know that, like... theres no real way the three of them can keep that feeling going in any sustainable way. not when they have careers, and marriages, and polite society to fit into. so they don't ever speak of it again and all three of them spend the rest of their lives convinced that the other two regret it and that theyre the only one who felt what they felt. but they didnt. and theyll never know.

the merrily characters i most identify with are charley, mary, and the guy who loudly namedrops charley kringas at the party without knowing what dark ghosts he awakened
