making a gifset based on this but first i need to take a moment to appreciate the parallels between these compositions i’m never fully able to shake the scott/theo phone call out of my mind, or the way it makes me feel. theo’s emotions are almost palpable, and the scene is heavy with all the intimations hanging unspoken in the air. i like to think this includes the fact that theo has been here before—the car, the rain, the lives on the line, scott and the understanding between them of the pull and power of love. it’s different now, though, it’s entirely different, and they both know it. because this time, it’s the person theo loves who’s in danger. it’s theo in liam’s place. theo tried to relate to scott in 5x10, but (as far as we know) he had never experienced love for himself at that time, and had certainly never known it as this: something entirely selfless. before, theo viewed the all-consuming intensity of a first love as something that could be weaponized, used to his advantage, mined to serve his malice. he counted on liam’s love for hayden to be powerful enough to kill for. but this time, scott’s request is entirely contingent upon theo risking his life, knowing now that love is something worth dying for, even if the other person won’t let you.
