folklore was made for the sara oliver and laurel situation change my mind. this has been in my drafts for a year bear with me. silly blaze rant below have fun
august? sara and oliver's affair.
-
"Back when we were still changin' for the better."
"Wanting was enough."
-
"And I can see us twisted in bedsheets"
"August sipped away like a bottle of wine""
"Cause you were never mine"
-
(ALSO WEREN'T THEY LITERALLY SIPPING WINE IN THE BED WHEN THE GAMBIT SUNK?!?!1)
cardigan? laurel and oliver.
-
"Chase two girls, lose the one."
-
"But I knew you'd linger like a tattoo kiss. I knew you'd haunt all of my what-ifs."
"And I knew you'd come back to me."
-
(THIS ENTIRE SONG. IS. SO. LAURIVER.)
my tears ricochet? laurel cursing at oliver's grave when she thought he was dead, and then oliver visiting hers when she died.
-
"And you're the hero flying around, saving face"
"And if I'm dead to you, why are you at the wake?"
"Cursing my name, wishing I stayed"
-
"And I can go anywhere I want"
"Anywhere I want, just not home"
-
"You turned into your worst fears"
"And you're tossing out blame, drunk on this pain"
"Crossing out the good years"
-
(i could rant for years about this song, the grave parallels are too much. anyways-)
this is me trying? sara, especially when she came back.
-
"I've been having a hard time adjusting"
"I had the shiniest wheels, now they're rusting"
"I didn't know if you'd care if I came back"
"I have a lot of regrets about that"
-
"So I got wasted like all my potential"
"And my words shoot to kill when I'm mad"
-
(oh my god especially with the 'could have followed my fears all the way down')
illicit affairs? do i even have to say it. (sara and oliver).
-
"But it dies, and it dies, and it dies"
"A million little times"
-
"Don't call me "kid"
"Don't call me "baby"
"Look at this godforsaken mess that you made me"
-
exile? lauriver, especially s1.
-
"I can see you standing, honey"
"With his arms around your body"
"Laughin', but the joke's not funny at all"
-
"You're not my homeland anymore"
"So what am I defending now?"
-
invisible string? that conversation sara and oliver had about how everything started from them hooking up-
-
"Time, curious time"
"Gave me no compasses, gave me no signs"
"Were there clues I didn't see?"
-
"Something wrapped all of my past mistakes in barbed wire"
"Chains around my demons"
-
"Hell was the journey, but it brought me heaven"
-
bonus bc my god this post is long: mad woman is sara's theme, betty is oliver begging laurel to take him back in s1, epiphany is sara, laurel, and oliver fighting together, seven is laurel and sara's bond, peace is sara or oliver saying to their partners that their life is fucked up and they can't be peaceful, hoax just has arrow vibes for some reason. the lakes is so nysara coded for no reason.
