Something I adore about this saga is how the songs all end with such powerful and forceful singing. It almost feels like Odysseus is trying to drown out the screams he hears by being louder with his own pain and convictions
I like Eddie calling Steve "sweetheart" very much; I also currently like the idea of Steve's reciprocal endearment for Eddie being "sunshine," because a) we have seen Eddie smile, the reason is obvious, b) their pet-names for each other need to be sort of old-timey and sentimental for some reason, and c) it's a gentle bit of teasing about Eddie's edgy dark image when in fact he is adorable.
when you remember (and are still waiting in vain for the narrative of season 2 to acknowledge) this moment, much less the entire fucked up scene it's part of:

That Izzy was the one to intrude on their moment was violation enough, but I was legitimately physically uncomfortable with his eyes raking over Ed like that AND Ed's complete lack of reaction to it. I understand that there was meant to be some subtextal discomfort around this new level of intimacy for Ed and Stede but coupled with literally everything else about Izzy's fumbled arc this season, it was even worse than it needed to be. Add it to the pile of inexplicable* decisions they've made around Izzy as a character this season.
*well there are some potential explanations but they're all bummers

Well, this is a delightful way to start a new year. Thanks to sparks_official for my birthday serenade. Love you guys. (x)
How long have you been married and how did you know it was the right person 😔
i’ll try to not make this an essay. we just celebrated four years together, three married, on halloween! i’ll say i knew pretty quickly. i think within three conversations i was thinking “this is someone i’m going to love very very much.” i’ve never been very good at being. normal sjdksjsj so i’m pretty sure our first convos consisted of me rambling about mothman for some reason? i was terrified of being annoying but i also just. enjoyed talking to him so much. there’s a quote from if beale street could talk where james baldwin writes, “fonny liked me so much that it didn’t occur to him that he loved me,” and that’s exactly how it felt. there has always been just a sense of understanding between us, things we communicate w/o words. he’s my best friend and it’s absolutely insane to me that he loves me this much too???
heyyyyy sliding into your ask box just to say a snippet of a thought
imagine if lust learned your language fot you, just think about how much he could use that against you and how he'd call you soft nicknames like mahal o bitwin? -from your local country hiiiii!!
