i keep thinking about the shooter scene in 1x03 and i just ... i can’t figure it out . i love it , i’m just so fucking puzzled by maeve and homelander’s dynamic . there are things i’m certain of : she’s afraid of him , she’s afraid of becoming like him , and she’s glad they aren’t dating anymore . i also think she did have feelings for him , and that she tolerates a lot of him because she simply doesn’t believe she’s any better . but then there’s that exchance — “ the things i let you do to me ... ” . “ yeah ! and we’re not even dating anymore ” . then she turns , lingers , and mutters a very distressed ‘ fuck ‘ . that fuck just ... what does it mean ? it’s like she’s just remembering back then that she dated him , or that he still has some power over her . note that this is before her encounter with elena , meaning she couldn’t have been thinking something along the lines of “ he might take her out ” because in that moment , before the plane accident , elena is not even in the picture . is it a “ goddammit , i need to stop making myself a fool for him ” sort of fuck ? that’s probably the most likely option , though that happens as a sort of sudden epiphany , so it wouldn’t really make sense ? my running theory , right now , is that she somehow still has feelings for him and hates herself to no end because of it . ( might also explain why , when elena tells her to ‘ go back to homelander ‘ , she doesn’t protest , or claim homelander is past ) . i just keep circling back around this scene and i can’t figure it out . and if they don’t give me some more character depth in season 2 i’m gonna fucking kill someone .

    perhaps if she still gave a SHIT about anything ( homelander was right , wasn’t he ? ) , she’d be helping him to his feet . perhaps she’d be KIND — but her kindness left through the front door years ago , and all she has now is exhaustion , perhaps some compassion , and an ocean of snark . so her contribution , really , is limited to a nod and a half grin : “ you want me to hold your hair back ? ”

      “ if you want to talk , i suppose we —— ” . small talk is just not her thing — or any sort of talk , really . punching , she’s great at , beating up , getting bloody : truly one of a kind . but the seven’s own queen maeve is now awkwardly teetering at the edge of his personal space , uncertain . and she’s craving a DRINK every second more .

      god , she’s HAD IT with vigilantes — snotty brats running around preaching about justice and ideals , still smelling like goddamn formula — and all of them with the same goddamn costumes and the same goddamn colors . and this is coming from the xena cosplayer . her arms , crossed , seem to underline her metaphorical and physical distance : too brash , perhaps , but oh so exhausted . “ just — be ORIGINAL . for fuck’s sake ”

           her annoyance is hard to disguise — truth be told , she’s not even really trying . to all purposes , she might as well be a STATUE : that is , until she’s tilting her head and offering a condescending smile ( her own offering to his last remark ) . “ oh , wow . you’ve managed to make this about YOURSELF in less than twenty seconds ” .

                      she keeps hearing them . at night , not even the top shelf liquor she fills herself with can stop that . the screaming , the begging — the GUILT . and even the fabricated armor she’s shrouded in , when the weight is too much , it comes off : look closely now , and you might even see her begin to CRACK . “ i just keep thinking about it — ” words slither out of her mouth for the benefit of a one - woman audience . she’s not even sure why she’s opening up to her . perhaps it just needs to come out . “ — all those people ... ”

                        VERY few things come close to being as demeaning as vought’s god - awful crime itinerary — but when those wheel - spinning - rats called crime analysts , when even they begin to fuck up , GOD — this has not been her week at all  . now she’s stepping towards the lifeless body of what was supposed to be her weekly success story — now , clearly someone else’s . “ goddammit ” , cursing under her breath , arms crossed : more disappointed than truly angry . “ that was MY collar ” .

[casualcruelty]

     irked — any time conversations stray from scripted pleasantries and diplomacy . like everyone’s just there to point at the ROT she’s so desperately trying to hide . so she smiles , waves away questions as nonchalantly as she’d wave away a fly . “ you mind if we not crack open that TAWDRY little chapter ? ”
