Bestie Moments!
Just some of my favourite moments of Mariska and Peter on set.
Law and Order SVU 18x07 | 26x08
Olivia: I wanna sleep for 40 hours. Sonny: You know that's called a coma, right? Olivia: Olivia: That sounds so refreshing, I could totally go for a light coma right now.
In Liv's line of work, I can totally picture her saying this.
20.03 | 24.21
SVU Season 26 Episode Lineup
Since the season swapped the order of the episode so many times this season, here is the correct order of how the season was originally supposed to air as, and what they ended up airing instead
You could tell early in the season that the episodes were aired out of order
Hopefully the editor's room will be more organized and on track for next season. Cause the order of this season was messed up.
Intrigued by your thoughts on Benisi. I hope it becomes canon! If it happens, do you think it will be the end of Rollisi? Or will remain a short-lived thing which is a forever secret between Benisi?
Oh I don't hope it becomes canon at all bc I think that explodes three of the most important relationships in Olivia's life in one go and also is not something I think she would ever actually do; Olivia refused to sleep with Kathy's husband, there's no way she's gonna sleep with Amanda's husband (unless, perhaps, Amanda dies). Like that's just fundamentally not who Olivia is as a person; not doing adultery is kind of one of her defining characteristics.
Benisi is only delicious to me as a Concept; teasing out little moments that can be read thru shipper lenses, talking meta and mapping out fic, I think this is the perfect kind of springboard for a lot of creative thinking among fans but I do not think it should be canon and I can't imagine even for a second that it will be.
Now as to the rest of it lol
It's interesting that Liv and Carisi are having the most chemistry of their relationship now. After he's married, after he's a dad, after he's been traumatized. Like there was something a little too clean, a little too naive about him before but now that his hands are dirty and he's willing to raise his voice at her in the office, she's drawn to him. This idea that Liv needs someone like her; someone a little broken, a little angry, with a halo just as crooked as hers. That she sees someone in him now, something familiar and mean that makes her feel like he's someone she needs to protect, and someone more like her. A true equal. Not to mention the fact that Liv clings so tightly to the people she cares about, that she's not looking for sex with someone new but only goes to men she already has deep connections to. She's desperate for someone who knows her. Carisi doesn't know her, not really, not completely, but he's as close as she's gonna get while she's not fucking Elliot.
It's interesting to play with the parallel of Carisi getting everything he ever wanted but it isn't actually that great vs Liv being too afraid to reach for what she wants bc she might experience that same disappointment.
It's interesting to consider their perspective on Amanda, who they both love, who has hurt them both.
It's angsty, and doomed from the start, bc neither of them actually wants the other; Carisi wants Amanda (wants to really have her, and not watch her walk out the door all the time as she jets around on her new job and leaves him alone) and Liv wants Elliot. But they can't have the thing they want, and instead find a sad, tragic kind of solace in one another. It's a you understand me, you can keep me warm for a little while kind of affair. A placeholder, two hearts that share a familiar grief.
I'm torn on the question of whether it destroys Liv's relationship with Amanda (in fic. In the alternate universe where somehow this happens in canon I think there's no question Amanda never speaks to Liv again and Carisi gets a transfer so he's not handling svu cases anymore). The knock down drag out fight between Amanda and Liv is a fun concept for fic, but then so is this idea that their relationship, as fraught and fucked up as it is, transcends their romantic relationships and the hurt they cause one another.
I don't think there's any way they keep it a secret; that's not in Carisi's nature. I don't think he could. Maybe if it happens right now as a fucked up trauma response while he's still reeling, but even then I don't think he can carry on sleeping next to Amanda (when she's there) without telling her. He's gonna break.
Amanda dying solves that dilemma and adds some really interesting layers of grief and regret to their fling, but killing Amanda so Liv can fuck her husband isn't really idk the best use of Amanda's character. It's more interesting if she's alive I think
Benson + Carisi | 24x14: Dutch Tears
Let’s call the fire marshal, wake him up if you have to, and have him close the place down. We stash Dutch in a unmarked van out front. He might be able to pick him out of a crowd. I’m game.
Olivia Benson x Sonny Carisi ~ Halfway House
A little benisi drabble. All fluff. Based on 17x19. @homerjacksons enjoy Warnings: I haven't written anything for like a year. I also just wrote this, haven't checked it lol Words: 687
Liv was going through the mountain of paperwork on her desk when Amanda came storming into her office.
“I told you we should of pulled him out” Amanda said as Sonny followed her in. Sonny was currently working undercover at a halfway house for sex offenders after there had been a strong of rapes in the area.
