i just wanted to say how much i LOVED your sydcarmy nyc fic!!

don’t get me wrong established relationships fics are great but pining/yearning carmy?!? UNREAL esp when he just wanted to reach out to her and his conversation with nat at the end!! do you have plans for any more or any headcanons of what they’re like then

thank you so much!

so far i’ve written three sydcarmy fics and i’m partial to pining/longing (from both of them) just bc of who these characters are and my belief that they wouldn’t/can’t get together easily or quickly.

they really both have to burn inside. it’s gotta be dramatic and it’s gotta come to a head in a really intense, explosive way.

to answer your question i have a few headcannon ideas but i’m honestly not sure when/if they’ll come to fruition as i have other writing projects that require my focus/creative output, etc.

so we’ll see.

thankfully, there’s so many great writers in this fandom and it seems even more coming out of the woodwork after season 2 so i think we’ll have a lot to read and choose from in general which is exciting!!!

Title: one single thread of gold

By: @detectivejulesohara

Summary: He can’t stop staring at the knot around her ankle, tied to him, by fate or God, or perhaps even Thanos himself. The strand had once stretched for hundreds of miles, now ended only 3 feet in front of him.

Additional Tags: Alternate Universe - Soulmates, Red String of Fate, Fluff and Angst, not too angsty but soulmates can be complicated, especially when ur 104, i looked up if a doorbell had been invented yet to be accurate btw, Mutual Pining, they are both oblivious clowns pretending like they don't have a crush

hi! i was wondering for you tfatws + filming locations set how did you get the exact addresses of places? is that like public knowledge? love ur gifs btw!

Hi there. And yes! The information is freely available. There are websites like MovieMaps dedicated to compiling addresses of filming locations. For TFATWS specifically, I consulted MCU Location Scout.

And thank you!

[pensbridgerton]

#5 for season 2?? I’m hoping for the ankle biting/grabbing scene in the study!

5. Which scene(s) from the book are you most hoping make it into the show?

PALL MALL!! and I would love to see the scene in the library when there’s a storm and Anthony stays with Kate, and bee scene because I thought it was such a ridiculous moment it would be hilarious to see, and the wedding night!! I’m really excited about season 2 :D

[cloud9daily]

hi! in one of the episodes jonah says something along the lines of "im thinking of deleting my social media" and someone else i think garrett says something like "you have to do it, it doesnt count if you keep talking about it" and i was wondering if you knew what episode that's from? thanks!

Hello! I did some searching through transcripts, and it’s from Mateo's Last Day, season 2 episode 17. 

[colorsinautumn]

In 4th grade my friends and I would go around screaming the lyrics to better than revenge (even now we’ve graduated and we still talk about how while the lyrics are problematic it’s still a bop) but it wasn’t until after red came out I went to Walgreens a lot for some reason? and they had a Taylor display with posters and stuff and I’d always go over there to kinda hint to my parents that I wanted something and that Christmas they bought me the red album and from then on I was hooked

there’s a post on here that goes like “i bop to better than revenge but with feminism in my heart” and this story made me think of it so now i have to find it.

come send me your stories about discovering taylor for the first time!

If you're still taking fic prompts then i'd love to see 119 "I told you not to jump on the bed!” for Asher/Olivia please! love your writing!

Thank you! Also on AO3

Olivia takes in the hotel room and sighs. It’s not the greatest,but there are two beds and it’s decently sized so it will do. At least shedoesn’t have to worry about getting stuck in a room with one bed. That wouldhave been uncomfortable since she’s having to share a room with Asher. Shedoesn’t know how it happened. She was supposed to share with Layla, and Asherwith Jordan and Spencer. It all changed when Coop decided she was coming on thetrip. Now she’s with Layla and Spencer and Jordan are still rooming together,but have decided they want the room to themselves. Olivia knows better than toquestion why.

“Oh cheer up,” Asher says, walking to the bed furthest from thedoor and throwing his bag down next it. He flops down on the mattress and grinsup at her. “It’s not as if we haven’t roomed together before.”

Olivia fights the urge to say that before she hadn’t beenharboring a massive crush on him, but holds it back. The last thing she needsis for him to find out. So she rolls her eyes and puts her own bag down, “Thatwas before you started snoring.”

Asher sits up, narrowing his eyes. “I do not snore.”

Olivia starts doing a pretty good impression of someone thatsnores loudly, and laughs when Asher throws a pillow at her. She puts it downon her bed. “Well thanks. You know I like extra pillows.”

“Don’t get used to having it,” Asher tells her. “I’ll get itback.”

“I wouldn’t count on it,” Olivia says.

She’s totally not going overboard when she makes an effort to lockthe pillow in the safe so that she can leave to get snacks. Not at all. Shethrows a smirk over her shoulder as she heads for the door, “I’m going to getsupplies. You behave yourself. And that means no jumping on the bed.”

“I’m not a child,” Asher says, rolling his eyes.

Olivia knows better. She leaves the room and heads off in searchof the vending machines. She knows it’s not the healthiest but they’re onvacation. She deserves a little indulgence in the form of candy and potatochips. She’s regretting her decision to come alone and not drag Asher with herwhen she has to cart the food and drinks back to their room by herself.

She almost drops it all when she opens the door and sees the statethe room in is. Asher is there, sitting on his mattress, a pout on his face.That’s not the bad part. The bad part is that the mattress is now half on thefloor because the bed frame has been broken.

“I told you not to jump on the bed!” Olivia hisses, quicklyclosing the door behind her and putting the snacks down on the table.

Asher looks up at her with what can only be classified as puppydog eyes. It almost works on her. Almost. But right now she’s tooworried about what this means. She knows they’ll have to pay for the brokenbed, but that’s not what worries her. It’s knowing that since Asher’s bed isbroken that he’s going to want to share with her.

“Well I hope you enjoy sleeping on the broken mattress,” she tellshim, grabbing some of the chips and candy, and a soda, before going over to herbed and laying down right in the middle of it.

“Seriously?” Asher asks, getting to his feet and looking down ather in disbelief. “You’re really going to make me sleep on that?”

“You’re the one that broke the mattress, Asher.”

“But…”

“No buts,” Olivia says. “If it’s really a problem you can gobegging Jordan and Spencer to let you room with them.”

Asher wrinkles his nose, “But they’re going to be having sex. Youknow that, Liv. I can’t room with them.”

“Then I hope you enjoy sleeping on your half broken bed,” Oliviasmirks, popping a chip into her mouth.

She turns on the TV and puts it on some Supernatural reruns. Asherbusies himself with taking a shower and then plops down on his broken bed andmesses with his phone. Olivia hops in the shower after he’s done, wanting towash off the grime from hours spent in a car. When she gets out she’s surprisedto see Asher is still on his broken bed. She’d expected him to take advantageof her being away and claim a spot on her bed. The fact that he hadn’t makesher feel a little bit guilty.

“Are you tired?” She asks him as she crawls under the covers. Thistime she moves to the far side by the door.

“I don’t see how it matters since I doubt I’ll be getting muchsleep,” Asher mutters.

Olivia sighs and rolls over, putting her back to Asher. She knowsshe’s being stubborn, but she can’t make herself give in. It’s only afteralmost an hour of hearing Asher tossing and turning on his mattress, and makingsmall noises of frustration that she decides she can’t take it anymore.

“Oh for heaven’s sake, just get up here and quit yourcomplaining!”

Asher is stumbling to his feet and onto the bed immediately.Olivia fights the urge to roll her eyes. He gets under the covers and then laysthere, far too still, as if he’s afraid to move from fear of getting kicked outof the bed.

“Stop it.”

“I’m not doing anything,” he says.

“You’re being too… still,” she tells him. “I can’t take it.”

“I thought you wanted me to stop moving.”

“Well yeah, when you were constantly down there complaining andmoving every 5 seconds,” she says. “That doesn’t mean you can’t move at all.”

“I just can’t win with you,” he mutters.

He still shifts a bit before settling in. Olivia lets herselfrelax, and closes her eyes, hoping she’ll be able to fall asleep with Asher soclose. Asher moves again behind her, but she ignores it. At least until an armslips around her waist and pulls her back against Asher’s chest.

“What are you doing?” She whispers, trying to suppress a shiverat the feeling of his stubble rubbing against the skin of her neck.

“Cuddling,” Asher says.

“I can see that,” Olivia says, “But why?”

“You know why, Liv,” he tells her, his hand dancing across herstomach. “You just don’t want to admit it.”

She closes her eyes and tries to take a deep breath. All that doesis amplify the scent of his soap, one that she has grown fond of. When heplaces a kiss to her neck she sighs and tilts her head back against hisshoulder, “Ash…”

“If you want me to stop or move, I will.”

She thinks about it. She knows he’s telling the truth. The momentshe told him to cut it out he would be back on the floor. But she’s tired offighting. She’s been doing it for so long, and now it’s hard to remember why.

She turns in his hold, and brings a hand up to his cheek, watchingthe way his eyelids flutter for a moment. “Stay,” she whispers.

He opens his eyes and smiles, leaning into her touch. He moves in,his lips brushing softly against hers before he pulls back. “I’m not going anywhere.”

@detectivejulesohara requested a follow up to my BridgertonandSons!Pregnant!Kate Headcanons about the Bridgerton Siblings finding out about Kate's pregnancy so here we go!

Benedict found out one Saturday morning. Even though he'd found Sophie (with Kate's help) he'd gotten really used to dropping by on a saturday morning, having breakfast with his brother and his wife. He burst in one morning to find Anthony calmly flipping an omelette while Kate heaved over then bin in a pretty undignified manner, Newton sitting at her feet licking his paw. Benedict panicked. Anthony! Your wife is sick, aren't you going to do anything?! Anthony had spun round, and assessed Kate's rather pale complexion, humming sympathetically. I know, she'll be okay in a minute though. Right Katie? Benedict looked between his brother and Kate confused, this wasn't his over protective brother. Sophie patted his cheek sympathetically and said Jesus Benedict have you really not guessed yet? Benedict figured it out halfway through his omelette, gasping loudly.

Colin figured it out for himself pretty soon into the pregnancy. Kate had found herself in the last few weeks absolutely ravenous. Poor Lucy had found herself trotting down to the bakery 3 or 4 times a day. Anthony was often woken in the middle of the night with a nudge in the ribs and a request for a very obscure food. If he complained a terse What a lovely way to treat your pregnant wife Anthony! Such a shame your child will starve in the night! Anthony barely grumbles when he gets out of bed. And so Kate finds herself eating everything not nailed down at Amelia's christening reception. Colin sidles up beside her and says Jesus Kate! You're putting Lucy and Me to shame today. If I didn't know any better I'd say you were Pregnant! Kate stills beside him and Colin stops laughing immediately yelling HOLY SHI- Kate claps her hand over his mouth

Daphne figures it out about 10 minutes after she sees Kate, having recently been pregnant herself. Pulling her in for a hug and whispering How far along are you? in her ear. Kate pulls back, shocked. Simon wanders over conversationally saying What's all this about? Daphne just tuts and waves him away with a Simon, mind your own. Honestly.

Eloise and Francesca find out at the same time. Being exactly a year apart they can often be found together in the corner of the room, thoughtfully watching the family. At Benedict's birthday they watch how Anthony hovers like anxious hen over Kate, nervously fetching her water, arms wrapped tightly around her, ready to catch her as she swayed slightly on her feet. Eloise turns to Frankie and says Kate's pregnant, when do you think she's due. Frankie immediately responds She is, Yes. 30 quid says it's April.

Gregory is the first sibling to find out. He's been carefully watching Lucy flit around all day. As he always does. He loves seeing how competent Lucy is. She's incredible, and amazing and he loves her. So much. But something isn't quite right. He knew it when she made Kate herbal tea this morning rather than coffee. He watched as Lucy exited Kate's office having just dropped off a pastry. He stood and walked over to her desk. What's going on with Kate? Lucy had tutted irritatedly, leaning back in her chair. Nothing's wrong with Kate Gregory narrowed his eyes at her. She raised her eyebrows in response. Greg you know I can't tell you. Why don't you just go in and ask her? Gregory left Kate's office 10 minutes later with tears running down his face, pulling Anthony into a very firm hug as he passed.

Anthony and Kate told Violet themselves. In a very calm, casual manner over scones in Violet's living room one day. Just came right out and said Kate's pregnant. Violet sat open mouthed for a few seconds, Kate had to shake her shoulder a little with a soft Violet? Are you okay? Nervously. Violet had them both in a vice like hug which she refused to break for the next 25 minutes as she whispered to Anthony how proud she was of the man he'd become.

Hyacinth was holding a glass to the living room door.

Answering Eagles questions before the season 3 finale (Part 2/2)

I've received a bunch of questions since 3x08 and 3x09 dropped, so I compiled all the questions into two posts. I had to split them up because Tumblr only allows 10 images per post. Anyway, keep reading to see my answers and enjoy! 👇

There might be some kind of collaboration between Amie and Ludde like last season—we have only heard snippets of Ludde's song submission to the music school and it wouldn't surprise me if we saw Amie perform the song in its entirety in the last episode. I touched on this a little in part 1 of answering these questions.

It seems like Amie singing at the end of the season has become kind of a recurring theme. She performed “Follow” in 1x08 and “Second Sight” in 2x10 (on the radio, but my point still stands). I wouldn’t be surprised if they followed this trend by having Amie perform a new song in the season 3 finale.

I'm not sure if she'll recommend Ludde to the record label, though. I honestly still feel like Amie's whole storyline with sending in a rather basic demo written by two teenagers with little to no experience and then getting praised on it with comments such as "it's going to be a real summer hit" felt so unrealistic to me. Maybe they only said that so Amie would accept their offer or something, but that's still very strange because she would have still said yes without a doubt.

I can understand that they thought Amie was marketable as a person and there was this bonus with her having gone viral before on Felicia's Instagram, but that demo did not seem good enough for me to be immediately released as a single and then have them decide on the spot that Amie would be given a contract.

I mean, come on. It never felt earned because we never really saw Amie struggling with her songwriting journey to achieve this dream. Sending in one demo to one record label and having them immediately want to make a whole album with you just doesn't happen in real life unless the song is extremely good or you have a very unique voice. Amie is really talented but there are hundreds of people just like her, if not thousands. I was never convinced by her getting signed so quickly in season 2.

I understand that they wanted to establish her as a successful artist, but that felt so rushed. I was so sure that the record label would screw her over and steal the song rights to record it with another artist who was already established, and that we'd have to see Amie work even harder to achieve her dreams. But we didn't get that at all. Where was the struggle?

Anyway, I'm getting a little off-topic here. To be honest I have a lot of problems with the writing sometimes, even if I still love the show and its characters. Of course I wanted to see Amie achieve success (and I was happy when she did), but the journey there was so bizarrely easy.

She didn't start to seriously work on making her music career become a reality until season 2. Amie had dabbled in music prior to that, like when she auditioned for the school band and did that performance of Follow, but she didn't truly start to work towards it until season 2 when she decided to have her work sent to professionals in the business. And then, just five episodes later, she gets contacted by the record label in Stockholm.

To put this into context—season 2 took place somewhere around March, and episode 5 around three weeks into April. So when Ludde first started helping Amie it took less than two months for her to get signed. You could argue that the song was just that good or that Amie is just that talented, but it never felt like a realistic storyline to me.

So, back to your question! I need to stop getting so sidetracked while answering these haha. I don't think it would be realistic for the record label to hire a teenager with no professional songwriting experience, likely a very small portfolio of his own work in both size and variety, having a criminal record, and on top of that being infamous in the press for abusing his ex-girlfriend. If Amie offered the ultimatum to her label that she'll only return with Ludde, who has an incredibly bad reputation right now, it feels like she would be running the risk of losing the contract entirely.

There's only so much her label can put up with. We've seen Amie ignore their calls with no intention of reassuring them that she's coming back soon. Honestly, with the way things are looking right now it makes the most sense for the contract to be dropped. By Amie or by the label, I don't know.

The episode description for the season finale says that Ludde will get some sort of justice and it could be about his music (or something related to whatever Andreas is doing).

I believe Amie will be doing a live performance of Ludde's song at a New Year's Eve party in episode 10 but I doubt that Ludde will be picked up as a producer. If he actually does I would find that to be a very unrealistic plot point, to be completely honest with you.

This is an issue I had with 3x08 and 3x09 as well. I had a hard time actually enjoying the moment between Felicia, Klara, and Amie knowing that her family was getting increasingly worried for her and even thought for a short moment that Felicia was lying dead at the bottom of the ocean. All that could've been avoided.

To add, it didn't make a lot of sense to me that when Klara finally decided to call someone she called Amie instead of Elias. An ex-friend of Felicia's instead of her brother who could've helped a lot more. What was Amie supposed to do when she showed up at the hotel, exactly?

I know there was the thing with Klara only knowing Amie's number off the top of her head, but there is no reason why she couldn't have gone down to the reception while Felicia was sleeping and asked to use a computer just to get a quick message to Elias. Like, "hey, Felicia attempted something bad but she's safe with me, we're at this hotel in this room but she didn't want me to call anybody, I don't know what to do". That would've been so much better than keeping quiet about the situation for nearly 24 hours.

I know that Klara probably has trauma from leaving her dad at the hospital after his suicide attempt and that she probably didn't want to go against Felicia's wishes. I understand the first part 100%. But Felicia was in a very bad place emotionally and was thinking that her whole family hated her when that wasn't the case. I feel like in a situation like that you kind of have to be the bad guy just to ensure the family that Felicia was safe. Even if everything turned out alright in the end, it could've gone so much worse if Felicia had wanted to be kept hidden for longer.

The ending of 3x08 was super tough to watch and I can't imagine the feeling of thinking your only daughter/sister drowned herself after you just yelled at her and showed no support. Klara couldn't have known any of this, but I feel like she should've at least contacted Elias if she wasn't taking Felicia to a hospital.

Elias calling Amie would've been an easy solution to this whole debacle but we would've lost the drama. It's still somewhat of a plot hole though, like you said.

Thank you for reading that whole post @detectivejulesohara!

The clip you're referring to was posted on Yandeh Sallah's Instagram account, so not in a trailer for this season.

I think that was either just fanservice or it will appear in season 4 since it was posted in May of this year, and I believe the filming of season 3 had already wrapped by then.

It might indicate that Elias and Amie will be a couple by season 4 (this actually seems very likely regardless if this is actually part of a scene or not).

I think Elias is getting increasingly frustrated with hockey and the fact that he doesn't really have any other ambitions to strive for. He was raised with nothing but hockey surrounding him and it's in his blood. Elias got drafted to the US at around the same age as Mats, but Elias left after a year because he just wasn't progressing.

That must feel like a huge step back, and on top of that Mats was probably thriving in his successful career around the age that Elias is now. It's a tough difference in success to have weighing on your shoulders when you're in a team that's second to last in the rankings.

There's even the accusation in the press that Mats paid for Elias to advance in the rankings, and I'm sure that's going to affect his career negatively.

I think Elias overworking himself could also be the result of him feeling like he has to prove that returning to Eagles—a small club that is probably having their worst season ever—was in fact the right choice and not the death of his elite hockey career. That choice was very questionable from the very start and his agent advised against it. Even Mats found it strange. Elias said that he didn't really have a choice most likely because of the clause in his contract, but then he also claims to Mats that things just turned out that way.

Ludde: You don’t regret coming back [to Eagles]? Elias: I didn’t really have a choice.

The idea that he didn't have a choice in the matter doesn't seem accurate. His agent told him there were other alternatives like Jokerit (a professional ice hockey team based in Helsinki, Finland) and that they could find something better than Eagles. Elias seemed kind of defeated already and the decision to return to Eagles didn't feel thought-through at all. It's almost like he just didn't care.

Agent: [...] Jokerit has called and I’ve had a great conversation with them, so they’re on. Elias: You know what? Let’s skip all the trouble. Let’s go with Eagles, it’ll be great. Agent: What? Elias: I’m so tired of moving all the time anyway, plus I’ll be close to my family. Agent: Wait, I thought that you— Eagles has big economical problems, and… Sorry, but their season started awfully. We can get a better team. You understand, right? Elias: Yeah, but we can’t get a team that needs me as much. Plus— If they say they want to see development, I’ll give them that. Agent: Wait— They’re under the line. We’re talking about qualifying down directly. You can’t in earnest believe you’ll change that on your own. Elias: It’s perfect. I’ll only go up, as you like to say.

It also seems like he's maybe realizing that hockey isn't everything and that there are other things he might want to explore and pursue in his life. I think Elias is feeling kind of stuck right now. He's been training his whole life for one purpose which is a professional career in hockey, and maybe he feels like Mats wouldn't allow him to quit. That option doesn't exist to him.

Like you said, Mats had that comment where he labeled Ludde a "quitter" and Elias stressed the fact that there shouldn't be anything wrong with losing interest and deciding to pursue something else.

Mats: Can you imagine that he’s just quitting? I mean, I’m completely— He really didn’t strike me as a quitter. So fucking close. [...] Elias: [...] Ludde, he’s… He’s not a quitter, he’s just didn’t want it anymore. That should be fair.

However, quitting is seen as failure to Mats. Mats dropped everything when he got drafted. He left his relationship with Petra seemingly without a second thought, because hockey comes before everything for Mats. Felicia even mentioned back in season 1 how her father was just a voice in a telephone for most of her childhood. He barely had any presence in her life because he was busy with hockey.

When Klara tells Elias that he's always putting hockey first, he gets angry but he doesn't outright deny it. In fact, he kind of changes the subject to shift attention away from Klara's claim.

Klara: This— You haven’t changed at all. You’re always putting yourself first. Elias: Excuse me? Klara: Yes, it’s either you or hockey. Elias: Stop! What the— Klara: I can’t take this. Elias: Are you leaving now? I wasn’t the only one you dumped. You’ve been acting like shit to Felicia. Yeah, and Amie and Ludde too, for that matter. You haven’t thought about that? So don’t come here and say I’m the egoist.

This is kind of an interesting thought—that maybe Elias subconsciously knew that was Klara is saying is true to some degree and that he has been putting hockey first. He decided to get on the train to the draft combine in Seattle instead of staying with Klara, and a year later he realizes that things didn't turn out the way that he'd planned and he returns to Eagles.

Maybe Elias is trying so hard to be someone who he just isn't, and it's affecting so many aspects of his life negatively. He lost Klara, he had to repeat almost his whole last year in high school because of moving to the US, and now he seems to be stuck in Oskarshamn. He's previously expressed to Amie that this isn't necessarily where he wanted to end up.

Elias: [...] Hey, is it just me or is there something about this town that… It sort of feels like no matter how much you try to get away, it… It pulls you back somehow.

It's kind of strange that he doesn't want to be in Oskarshamn, and yet he was the one who chose to return. Maybe he somehow feels like he has some purpose there because it keeps pulling him back. He just doesn't know what that purpose is.

Elias tried coming back to Eagles to turn things around for them, and they did win a game against the Capitals but that victory was later tarnished by the fight that broke out between the two teams (and to add to this, the loss of Ludde who used to be one of the star players and Klara as a sponsor). That kind of overshadowed their whole victory. Elias was very determined to do something to help and it very much feels like he needs Eagles to succeed—he needs to sort of "redeem" himself.

Elias: [...] Can I do anything? Can I go talk to— I could go talk to the sponsor. Mats: Let’s deal with it later. I’ll solve this. You have to go to school now. Elias: But we can finish talking— Mats: You can— No. Try to think of something else. Alright?

I think that Elias's desperation for Eagles to do well could absolutely lead to him eventually deciding to be a coach. He doesn't really seem to want the life that Mats had after seeing how success turned out for him—a broken family that he barely cares about because hockey occupies his mind more than caring for his children or repairing the relationship with Leila.

I think Elias being a hockey coach could suit him, but I would also love to see him exploring things outside of hockey—maybe even his interests outside of sport entirely.

I kind of agree with you on this. Klara has apologized to Felicia and been forgiven, but we've never seen her properly apologize to Amie for filming that video of her and posting it on social media. Amie and Ludde were in the wrong, yes, but that video being posted was humiliating for both of them. They had to deal with the ramifications of that for months after with the whole school judging them in silence.

To be fair, the video was posted a long time ago in the show's time frame (nearly two years ago if I'm right?) and they all kind of moved on from it. To add to this, maybe she felt it would've been kind of awkward to apologize with Felicia in the room.

Felicia was so hurt by that video being posted and I think it would feel very weird for her that Klara would apologize for posting the video when it's the sole reason Felicia found out what had been done to her. Without that video, she would've probably gone a few more months without being told what happened at the Halloween party.

I'm waiting for a Klara and Amie reconciliation in this season finale. I feel like this is something that should be discussed between just the two of them, and maybe they'll sneak in some blessing from Klara with the whole budding Elias and Amie relationship? I'd be happy with just a reconciliation, though, but I'm unsure if we'll get one. I have a feeling they'll start the season finale with a time jump and I don't know if Klara is even going to be in Oskarshamn by that time.

If we don't see them reconnecting in the season finale I will be pretty disappointed, to be honest.

Thank you! I really appreciate you too @lunawedlers (your gifsets are absolutely magical)!

This question was sent in a while ago but as season 3 had just started airing I was very excited to see the development of Elias and Amie, mostly because the director had been hinting on Twitter that something would happen between them this season. I've been really interested in them ever since 1x03 and so far the wait has been worth it.

I think all episodes have great visuals, but if I had to pick one I would probably say 3x06. All those shots of Elias and Amie on the walk through the park, the drone shots, and then the view from that bench spot were so gorgeous visually. That answer is more of a scene rather than a whole episode haha, but I think they really made the beauty of Oskarshamn stand out in those shots.

I think Amie will have some sort of performance in the final episode of a new song and that Elias will be watching her! After reading the episode description for the final episode and seeing that there will probably be some New Year's Eve party going on, I have a feeling that Amie will be performing. She's always had a performance of a new song in every season finale and this one should be no exception.

They tricked us a little in the season 3 trailer with us thinking that Elias would be at one of Amie's concerts in Stockholm, but now I'm sure that this scene fits in at the New Year's Eve party.

I think we should keep our expectations low for a kiss between Elias and Amie. They just started developing their relationship, and I like the slow pace they're going in. They're not rushing anything. I also have this feeling that their development has deliberately been so slow because they're sort of "saving the best for last".

Elias and Amie are fan favorites and their relationship has been very talked-about from the beginning. I can see the writers maybe having decided to push their relationship more towards the end of the show, which is why we haven't really gotten any Elias and Amie content until now. That's frustrating if you're impatient and I've seen some people thinking that maybe Elias and Amie won't happen at all, but I don't think we need to worry at all. The fact that Elias and Amie's development has been so slow should indicate that they're much more likely to be endgame.

A kiss in episode 10 could definitely happen, but I don't know. Maybe they'll drag it out further. As I've said before, if they don't get one in season 3 they will absolutely be getting one in season 4. I've noticed that it's always best to keep your expectations low when it comes to this couple.

The episode description for the season finale said this about Elias, which some have interpreted to be about Amie.

New Year’s Eve is here. [...] But is Elias brave enough to say what everyone else already knows?

This could mean anything, really. I'm actually leaning more towards this being about an individual thing rather than Amie being involved. It could be about Elias admitting that he's been overworking himself and not eating properly, or coming clean about the fact that maybe he doesn't want a career in hockey. This is something that everyone else already knows, so I think it might be about hockey.

Felicia has observed the overworking, Mats has told him to stop with it, and Ludde might've had some inkling about it while he was still on the team. Even Amie has probably also noticed that he's been spending a lot of time at the gym lately.

I could absolutely be wrong about this though.

Thank you for the question @lunawedlers!

This is a hard one because season 3 has had so many strong episodes already, and usually my favorite episode ends up being the season finale because it's basically the culmination of the whole season. I really loved 2x10 for this very reason since the ending montage was so well done.

If I had to pick between 3x01 - 3x09 though I would probably have to say it's a tie between 3x04 — Date night and 3x05 — Wounds! These two episodes showcased what Eagles should be all about so well, which is relationships plus the struggles you go through as a teenager in a small town, and then of course hockey. The hockey game episodes are really good, even if I don't think 3x05 topped 2x05 (the game where Ludde got tackled and knocked out).

I loved the contrast in Date night of the budding relationship between Elias and Amie and then that fight between Felicia and Ludde on the cliff. That whole scene between Felicia and Ludde on the cliff was actually really beautiful, especially when the sun had gone down.

It was interesting to see how this sweet gesture from Felicia turned into a fight between the two of them. I thought that was very realistic, because no matter how big of a gesture Felicia made to apologize there were still underlying problems that they needed to talk about.

I also loved the "non-date" between Elias and Amie in this episode. It was cute to see them goofing off before the movie started and then talking about it on the way home. I liked how Elias could connect to her on how they had both returned to Oskarshamn.

The recent episodes that dropped last week (3x08 and 3x09) were very strong and discussed some important subject matters, but I had a few problems with them that I discussed in a question above. They were dark, but not necessarily bad because they needed to happen.

However, I have to say that I prefer Eagles when it's about hockey and teenage relationships. 3x04 and 3x05 made me kind of nostalgic for season 1 and I liked the vibe they both had.

I agree, but I think we could maybe get a combination of both! Relationships can have all these romantic and sweet traits like you described, but also be more passionate and show public displays of affection.

I think Elias and Amie fit the more laid-back and sweet characteristics, but we have yet to really see what Amie is like in a relationship. We've seen her with a crush on Ludde and we got a glimpse of that thing she had with Robin (which was apparently a relationship but I did not pick up on that at all), but we don't really know what Amie is like in a relationship. Maybe she's never really had a "real" one, either.

Nevertheless, I'm excited to see what's in store for Elias and Amie. I'm very positive that they will eventually become a couple in season 4.
