more or less

In her 20s It’s all about that pathetic dead gay bitch

☹️so hungry want analysis food

I wonder if River would feel jealous if he found out Spider had other friends. And would Spider feel jealous if he found out River had other enemies?

[hr-twink]

when he has other enemies 😒☹️ #betrayal #cheating

[donniata]

you can love whoever you want, but you only hate me

[donniata]

"You can't just hurt him out of jealousy. that's my job," he muttered, trying to separate his own resentment toward river from everyone else's. as if his was somehow more justified.

“You’ve not said a word to me since I got here, and since everyone else has taken the time to berate me for something, I thought it only fair to give you the chance.”

Unlike the past, there’s not a lot of anger in the attempt—it’s mostly just kind of sad, which makes it harder to be angry at. But it still rubs him the wrong way. Leave it to River to always play the victim in a situation that he created.

“Doesn't self-pity ever get tiresome for you?”

“Doesn’t self-righteousness ever get tiresome for you?”

There’s barely any heat in it now. The words carry a distinct lack of that directionless anger River’s been made up of since the moment they’d seen each other in Taverner’s office; it’s more like defeat. A drowning man’s last attempt at a fight he knows he won’t win so he can die thinking well, at least I tried.

i cannot put into words how fucking incredible this fic is nor can i explain what it does to me. i actually cannot breathe rn

[donniata]

faced with danger, his FIRST instinct was to pull his clothes back down, rather than holding onto his gun.

[donniata]

Speaks for itself. Just here to admire.

Just thinking how much less cunty (derogatory) Spider and how much more cunty (affectionate?) Spider would be if his hair looked like this during the Slow Horses:

[donniata]

so spider is the only one who actually gets a nickname…

[donniata]

so technically you can’t change a knocked-out guy’s clothes in a few minutes. so. what if spider actually wakes up halfway through river stripping him down? like with his brain still completely scrambled from the beating, the very first words out of his mouth are wtf, you twat. and river, just wanting to get the thing done, put the clothes on, or we’re both getting our heads blown off. NAKED. so, swearing the whole time, spider ends up in river’s gear, gloves and mask included. and what if it isn’t because he genuinely bought into river’s threat. what if it comes from a sudden, uncontrollable wave of nostalgia. what then.

He’ll stop being nice the second someone says his tie is ugly

His last thought before he passed out was Oh no, my Cucinelli

And all it takes is one robbery of that little fake diamond tieclip, and he’ll be on the ground weeping like a baby

[donniata]

Is this a normal distance for enemies? Is this a normal way to wake up your enemy?

[donniata]

gay panic enemy panic job panic all at once

[donniata]

still funny. likely one of the few times that River has taken charge.
