I keep considering some scene of John finally processing his (deeply repressed, you can just see him pushing it down and away as Bev talks to him in that scene) guilt and grief over killing Joe, looking up with those big brown eyes as he says in a voice full of pain, “I baptized Joe Collie.”

#midnight mass #midnight mass spoilers #i feel like the first baptism John performed on Crockett was #either joe or beverly #i keep going back and forth on which one is more thematically appropriate #anyways i love that scene with the body; everything about it is so well put together #i'd love to quiz Hamish about what exactly he was trying to play #to me he looks like he's been near-catatonic all night #just drifting in relief because he was in horrible pain and then it ceased #unwilling to think about what had just happened #because he's aware that he Should feel guilty #he Should feel awful #but the animal in his brain is just satisfied. thankful that the pain is over #and then beverly marches up and gives him an awfully good excuse #to just ignore the guilt #and convince himself he's the Second Coming #he's such a fucking idiot I love him
