godddd the way the original e5 “you wear fine things well” scene was backlit by a giant full moon that didn’t actually exist bc this was ed and stede’s fairy tale romance, the way they’re both all dressed up in finery and looking their best after a fancy night out (which didn’t go how either of them expected but that’s not the point the point is it was an Event it was a whole Thing they went to)
and then in the e5 “wear fine things well” 2 electric boogaloo scene the moon is a waxing gibbous because it’s real and stede’s wearing what remains of his fancy suit he had to get rid of and ed’s wearing a fucking. sack and a cat collar. and holding a fucking dead fish. and they’re just catching up after both of them had a pretty normal day doing their own things. this isn’t the picture-perfect fantasy from last season this is both of them grounded in the moment taking it slow because their relationship is worth handling with care. they want this to last and they want this to be real so they’re taking their time, being gentle. they’re not as completely absorbed by each other the way they were last season, they’re their own separate people who can exist in different plotlines for an episode and then come back at the end of the day and catch up, swap stories, kiss and hold hands and just hang out and enjoy being in each other’s presence.
now if you’ll excuse me. i have to go cry.

Doing a leisurely little season 1 rewatch and I'm here to tell you two things about how the original "you wear fine things well" scene hits now:
Even before Ed took his step forward, Stede knew on some level that a kiss was about to happen (even if that level wasn't his brain). Shout out to Rhys for the brilliant acting choice to press his lips together at that crucial inhale.
This scene still has the power to make your stomach go all swoopy, even after the season 2 redo. Perhaps especially after the season 2 redo.

The power of love is a strong thing.”
