Hi um idk if you still like repo but if you do gramber headcanons please
omg this activated me like a sleeper agent I'm so compelled by those two freaks god bless <333
I think to me the most important factor in their relationship is that it is so toxic in either direction, whenever I think abt them and whenever I do get to actually writing something for them some day I really loove the idea of graves having a real, severe debt to geneco. like we can all infer he has one but I want it concrete I want it on paper bc I just love the symmetry of both him and amber each having something they can dangle over the other's head
one thing I keep returning to over and over is the idea of them having been kind of aware of each other from a very young age like a personal favourite hc of mine is graves having a little baby celebrity crush on her in his youth it scratches my brain a lot. I feel like amber would have gotten on z pretty early like for sure in her teens and I like the idea of them sort of sticking with each other for ages even as they slowly start to kind of despise each other, like it's part whatever weird romance they have going on, part nostalgia and part just tradition if that makes sense?
also speaking of which I do think they hate each other like kind of obvious but I really can not have my gramber without a healthy dose of complete and utter mutual disdain. she finds him kind of repulsive, he thinks she's a personification of everything wrong with Society, etc like to me that is fundamental to what makes them fun and interesting <3
I do also have a bunch of post-movie thoughts but they're kind of like. completely incoherent. I think the shift in power dynamic with amber becoming ceo could be maybe the juiciest thing of all time bc it completely throws off the balance I mentioned at the beginning of the post and I can absolutely see it just decimating whatever relationship they have. like graves isn't playing an essential role in amber's zydrate use any more if she just like. owns the company that produces it, and it also means she would have a lot easier time just getting him gutted if she wants to and I'm SO compelled by it like I can just see a downwards spiral so clearly and I love it I want to chew on it
n ee way those are kind of some general thots anon thank you SO MUCH for asking I'm so obsessed w these two would love to talk abt them more like dm me I'm so serious I need to go gongaga over them so bad it's been so long
