Ngl I want an aftermath coda so baaaad like of the version of them three that got to stay together... How could they even make that work? What with Noel and Noelin being furiously jealous, and Liam not being much better when they *are* enjoying each other (very briefly lol) and then Noel hasn't really experienced Liam by himself, so there's a bit of an inbalance there too. I'll keep imagining and you take your break, Pink š¹
An aftermath coda? Hmmmmm Iāll think about it⦠BUT BUT BUT. You just gave me smth to think about!
If we go with the 1980 universe (which is ours!) Iām sure Liam doesnāt really remember everything that happened. The memories are gone but the feelings are still there.
but of course⦠thereās Noel! And heās just this walking paradox of one body carrying two people Liam once loved so intensely while also carrying two peopleās feelings for Liam. Noel and NoelĆn spent their entire lives trying to destroy each other over Liam and now theyāre forced to coexist as one person can you just imagine how much of a TRAINWRECK that is!
Which is why I wanted the ending to return to the Noel and Liam we know. I just think itās a really fun (and tragic š) way to look at their relationship.. that maybe it was always beyond fucking tangled. This fic sort of externalised it. The twinsā duality became literal but perhaps that contradiction was always what drew Liam in!
Even now heās loving āNoelā except Noel has never really been just one person anymore. HEāS A LITERAL GEMINI!
ALSO imagine how psychologically insane the sex would be??? Liam is, in a way, emotionally intimate with two people at once while Noel is simultaneously experiencing the desires of two selves that spent their entire lives fighting over him. No WONDER these idiots canāt keep their hands off each other in real life
