#sorry being a bit much right now lol. < who cares #also i am very much enjoying watching this show on my laptop and making little notes as i go #sayingthing

book annotating as an expression of love i am sure

#sayingthing #i have never done this. but i kind of want to

kind of embarrassed i never watched iwtv before

#not really like to be clear i knew next to nothing about it #though i had a mutual at some point who posted it a bunch but i scrolled past #only watched the first episode but holy shit i am intrigued #i was wondering how i finally got around to it and then looked next to me remembered i am literally reading a vampire book lol #ALSO all i knew was there was something. with an interview. or something. see title. and something gay. and messed up shit to some degree #did not expect it to launch into it like that immediately #2x gay vampires yipppee (which isn't the main intrigue here but Still!!)#sayingthing #also just starting a show 0 trailers or anything before is FUN #i was going to say i did the same with this book but idk if that's true? like compared to usual i guess it was minimal for me #i just looked up gothic sapphic ngl. i think i did read the back and just immediately decided to buy it which is not my usual speed at all #meanwhile next to me there was a hr based pride month speeddating event going on at the bookstore. maybe something was in the air idfk #no i actually just really wanted to read gothic horror and more sapphic stuff #it's not horror but hey. i'm good here anyways #yapyap

hikes are very good yes but a deluxe hike is when you are accompanied by a freak with niche nature knowledge. they’re like omg stop there’s a horned valerian varmint beetle here and then you both get to crouch down and look at a bug like :)

Sitting in my room, middle of the day, trying to figure out the best way to project onto fictional hockey players

"I hate you" "no you don't" is a highly common refrain in their relationship, and after they're married the bit gets an upgrade because when person 2 goes "no you don't" they accompany it with a casual flash of the ring on their finger and person 1 melts significantly more than they ever did when they were just boyfriends

16 year old Shane getting flustered from a chirp from a very attractive hockey player he’s facing off against . But then the guy misses a really easy goal & Shane gets the ick so bad it shoves him back into the closet for another year

i do love that i can just have several versions of future hollanov running around in my head like i do not have to choose i love fiction

#there are many versions of them that importantly do not do surrogacy whatsoever #currently thinking about the part where shane and svetlana start a hockey podcast together. which is completely unrelated but ah whatever #i do still know next to nothing about hockey #the fic i read about it was fun though #hr #sayingthing

this isn't funny to anyone else but i do sometimes like to imagine a future where eventually rose landry recommends shane and ilya the same unethical fertility company that she used and then there's like a huge whistleblower piece in the atlantic and they all wind up giving these really out of touch interviews about how it's not morally wrong to want to pick your baby's eye color or contractually require your surrogate to only eat pureed food to reduce the cortisol levels of chewing and then they go on a chrissy teigen apology tour that culminates with the launch of a wellness brand

#i do fear this is true to me.#ideally i wouldn't want them doing that. but they very very much would. imo #which is in fact very funny and i will be thinking about it #heated rivalry #yk what sometimes it can be fun to imagine the realistically out of touch bullshit those rich&famous fictional characters Will end up doing

nothinggg is more ilya than the tampa hotel room sequence where shane comes out, ilya acts like a dick while keeping himself physically as far from shane as possible, shane gets his feelings hurt and starts looking a little chin-wobbly, and ilya audibly GROANS and flings himself across the room to sit next to him on the bed. but he’s still not looking at shane or touching him because ilya is NOT here to comfort him or anything ok he just randomly and totally unrelatedly got tired of standing up at the exact moment that shane’s big brown eyes started getting all wet and shiny with tears and the nearest place to sit down happened to be on the bed next to shane. do NOT read anything into this none of this means ANYTHING (in under two minutes he will be crying in shane’s arms btw)

don't get me wrong i love the fact that shane and ilya retcon their relationship to be love at first sight. like good for them!! but when i look at the source material im like .. you were charmed. you were jealous. he had everything you wanted (supportive family and his country behind him, able to be big and brash and move through life with ease) and you wanted to see if you could make him feel good (can you debauch the golden boy, can you be good for the man who's had everyone) but the love didn't come until you started to take apart the things that attracted you to this person in the first place. shane fell in love with the ilya who checked in on him and with the sweetness behind the barbs and with the ilya who couldn't stop kissing him in that stairwell. and ilya fell in love with the shane who thinks buffalo is stupid and can barely get his shoes off before he throws himself at ilya and can't tell his parents he's gay because he's suffocating behind his own image not because he thinks they don't love him but because he wants to honor everything they've done for him. and so it's really nice that ilya goes "i loved you from the first time i saw you" but i, omniscient reader, call bullshit. i think you love that boy now because no version of you could ever not love any version of him. but at the time i think you were mostly just curious and then the love grew despite all odds in the most hostile of circumstances because everything you learned about each other made you want more and more and more. and also probably that's even MORE beautiful. so.
