( twenty three,  she / her, gmt. ) est 2023.   canon divergent and heavily headcanon oriented, this portrayal doesn't primarily follow season  three ( though there is a verse set aside for that ), and changes several elements of rebecca's initial plotline. a study in reclaiming, healing, and the ties that bind. formerly found here.

have seen people insinuating she wouldn’t say what she did during the facetime in the new ep ... like i hear you to a point but did we just forget about her calling luca in season 2 or what

[afuckinglion]

keeleybecca stocks so high this episode that they’re literally wandering down the street holding hands

[afuckinglion]

saving face prompts

dialogue prompts from saving face, adjust as necessary.

you were right. kid's got the touch, reminds me a little of you.

nothing kills romance faster than a mother's approval.

i'm glad you weren't this snarky before our set up.

my mother gave me twenty bucks to dance with you.

signal if you need me.

what do you think those morons talk about anyway?

most people don't want to hear the truth until after lunch.

fate is for the lazy.

sometimes your body knows what you really want.

it's a scandal! a disgrace! it's better than the soaps.

you are the biggest disgrace, the ultimate shame.

she is no longer a part of this family.

the situation won't improve with yelling.

since when do you drink beer?

he's too consumed by his own life to pay attention to mine.

and then i kissed you on the nose and you ran.

you know, my friends are starting to think you don't exist.

does she know we have sex?

no, she thinks we conjugate latin verbs.

save it for the second date.

now when we see each other we don't speak. we just dance.

i'm going to be a terrible mother, i don't even like babies.

i'm just starting to feel like we're having an illicit affair.

today they love you. tomorrow, who knows?

do you love her?

this is nothing compared to war, don't excite yourself.

just relax, preferably elsewhere.

how can you say those two things at once? how can you tell me you love me then throw that in my face?

then maybe i shouldn't be your daughter.

i can't believe she's going to do it.

i'm not invited, she's not speaking to me.

you're not going to see her off to the airport?

if it is you fate to do your father's bidding than it is my fate to try and undo yours.

i love you, i know you love me, shouldn't this be simple?

you're causing a scene.

don't marry him! marry the one you love.

that woman's karma kills husbands.

i am indebted to you but i don't love you.

you have thrown away a lifetime of my reputation.

i wait, i hang around waiting to catch a precious moment with you. i'm sick of it.

you're too scared to look the world in the eye and let it watch you fall in love.

don't flatter yourself.

punish me by leaving. fine. don't punish yourself by treating your dreams like they're for shit.

a full belly conquers all.

you promised she wouldn't be here.

this is the first time i've ever had my own place.

the world is getting too hard to predict.

at least she's marrying a doctor.

god knows how she'll turn out if she's brought up by you two.

[afuckinglion]

once again thank you to the fall guy for raising my rebecca and emily stocks astronomically i am forever in your debt

[afuckinglion]

literally everything i write / have written since 2022 comes back to Her but please hold my hand when i tell you the precursor to season one rebecca looked exactly like this scene

TED LASSO (2020 - ) 3.01: Smells Like Mean Spirit

[afuckinglion]

its rare but whenever i see the “how could ted leave he’s proving rupert right” argument i have to sit here like. you do realise the whole point of season three was rebecca facing that trauma and proving him wrong herself / getting him out of her head in order to heal. and by reducing her solely to crying over ted going home you’re sort of implying she can’t heal or hasn’t put in literally any of the work to heal herself / the whole point of her choice to stay in the finale.

[afuckinglion]

hello i would like to report a severe case of saddest and prettiest princess disease

[afuckinglion]

so like i know the Obvious Route w a pluribus verse (at least beat-for-beat / matching narratives) is her and ted but i fear thinking about the layers it would have with her and keeley instead have been destroying me how am i supposed to be normal abt it

[afuckinglion]

because. okay. you've got the idea that she has to initially interact with the hive as rupert n the similarities that would have to how manousos responds to meeting his mother / the absolute horror of her piecing together this collective sincerely believes the best thing for you is to share collective consciousness with your abuser along with a complete loss of individual autonomy, not to mention the realisation that probably hits her that, that’s just what millions have been forced into already for whats argued to be their own benefit.

you've also got certain similarities in terms of repression if they did choose keeley to approach her after the initial reaction to rupert goes so horribly, just from a completely different experience given how carols experience is so heavily embedded in her sexuality / how navigating loneliness as a lesbian can be especially when paired with the grief of losing the one person who truly understood her / wasn’t afraid of confronting her or calling her out.

also also— there are certain arguments to be had about it being ted because i think already in terms of their dynamic in canon ted represents an honest source of positivity (to a degree, i mean we all know what he’s dealing with /aff) for her that, while skeptical of him in the beginning, was a huge factor in how she approached her ability to trust people again.
