I just finished S2 E4 like 5 minutes ago AND I AM IN SHAMBLES
I am in so much pain rn this stupid TV show has me feeling tight and clawing at my walls and two seconds from LOSING MY MIND
If you haven't watched Narcos yet like me, spoilers under the cut.
OK FIRST OF ALL
At the beginning when Steve was trying to catch that guy (I believe it was the Prisco brother) AND THEN HE LOST AND GOT SURROUNDED AND PEÑA JUST WENT "ALRIGHT GET IN THE CAR" i was like "damn Steve really had him so close but ok"
The shit with Maritza and Limón like :(((((
I knew I could trust Limón because he was good to her from the beginning but just omg the way she kept resisting and then she fed the info to the DEA and THEN...
CARRILLO. GUYS. CARRILLO. I LOVE (STILL DO) HIS CHARACTER, HOW EVERYONE FEARS HIM, HOW HE GETS TO LAUGH AROUND JAVI AND STEVE BUT HE'S STILL THE MOST BADASS GUY FR FR AND NO ONE QUESTIONS HIS AUTHORITY (except when he got exiled sure)
AND THE REPEATED LINES ABOUT BULLETS AND PABLO SHOWED NO FUCKING REMORSE (which is valid on his part) BUT IT STILL MAKES ME SAD
That scene was executed perfectly tho and that's what made it worse
OK OK OK AND THEN (YEAH THAT'S RIGHT I'M NOT DONE)
The different reactions between Javi and Steve
Bc my boi Steve has been pent up about a LOT OF SHIT. Bro... That helicopter push event with Gato killed his soul... and then calling Connie but not having her around (or Olivia for that matter) and then the chase with the Prisco brother and THEN THE CHERRY ON TOP IS CARRILLO'S DEATH.
And it made me so so so sad that Steve Murphy boi just went and repressed everything AND DRANK HIS DAYS AWAY and finally cried it out to his wife (which confuses me too??? Why did she leave at the start of the season, only to come back so soon? She could've just- Stayed??? Huh?)
AND THEN JAVIER PEÑA
The guy who casually went and got the info outta Maritza, went out of base when they weren't supposed to, and spread the information that Pablo Escobar was getting targeted, thanks to Limón. AND THE SURVIVOR'S GUILT.
THE SURVIVOR'S GUILT AND THE BLAME THAT HE LIVED WHILE CARRILLO DIED. THAT HE SURGED THAT MAN TO HIS DEATH. And everyone telling him that it's not his fault just makes it so much worse and SOBS...
isaac, i would like to be garthcoded :) a happy ending for me despite all odds, being a quirky little guy having the time of my life, being super duper cool 😎 but underneath there being a story, a heroes journey mayhaps...... levelheaded and cool 😎 maybe a little insane actually........... appreciating the little things in life and enjoying every second of it.......
i don’t know why i don’t like tgcf as much as mdzs
maybe bc i watched cql/mdzs first? but i read the novel for tgcf + s1 of donghua obviously but like i just can’t like them! separately, i like hua cheng. tgcf is a fun story. it brings a lot of characters to the table (he xuan and mx wind master my beloved) but anyway. idk where i was going w this. i see tgcf blogs and i’m just like ok i get it i get the hua cheng blogs too....i just don’t have tgcf brainrot i guess 😔
