shane effortlessly defying ilya's internal self deprecation with the most blunt, heartstopping, to the point sincerity is such an important part of their dynamic to me

"but you know me, i'm lazy, so." "i don't know that side of you at all."

"is that what we are going to do? relax?" "i hope so. i would like to relax with you. for once."

"because you like to be bad." "hey, that's not what this is. you and me. maybe it was at first but, not now, and not for a long time."

to the point where it even usurps other peoples interpretations of ilya before he gets the chance to internalize them -

"but, you hate him." "no. i mean, i get that. but no. i love him."

and ilya has that exact same subtly gobsmacked expression every time he does it

We hear a great deal about the rudeness of the rising generation. I am an oldster myself and might be expected to take the oldsters' side, but in fact I have been far more impressed by the bad manners of parents to children than by those of children to parents. Who has not been the embarrassed guest at family meals where the father or mother treated their grown-up offspring with an incivility which, offered to any other young people, would simply have terminated the acquaintance? Dogmatic assertions on matters which the children understand and their elders don't, ruthless interruptions, flat contradictions, ridicule of things the young take seriously - sometimes of their religion - insulting references to their friends, all provide an easy answer to the question "Why are they always out? Why do they like every house better than their home?" Who does not prefer civility to barbarism?

When somebody shares a quote by a famous author like it's something the author personally said and believed, but you know it was actually spoken by a character you're not supposed to like... 😐

[green-great-dragon]

one time I saw on Pinterest a cutesy little pink flowery image with the quote “‘as soon as I entered the house, I had singled you out as the companion of my future life’ -Pride and Prejudice” and like

ladies that is a mr collins quote 😭

[adventuresofwaverly]

My favorite example of this (not quite a character but a commonly misinterpreted quote) is Mary Oliver’s quote:

“He is exactly the poem I wanted to write.”

Often quoted as if it’s romantic. But here’s the thing

It was written by a lesbian. About a heron. She was writing about a large wading bird.

I'm still thinking about the guy who saw me realize my wheelchair wouldn't fit in the elevator because he (also a wheelchair user) was already inside it and immediately quipped, "This elevator ain't accessible enough for the both of us."

You ever think about how instantaneously Edwin makes friends? Like, he makes a friend on average once every 75 years or so, but when he does it’s on the spot.

Charles immediately wants to be situationships with Crystal but tbh them being actual friends takes a lot longer. He seems to kinda want to be friends with Brad and Hunter but he barely even gets to the point of “kinda amicable” before shit goes down. With Niko, he clearly likes her immediately but they seem to exchange about five sentences total.

Like, Charles is friendly instantly but him being actual friends takes a lot longer, which given his history is of course super fair.

But Edwin! With Niko and Charles both, it’s on sight, it’s “I just met you and I love you, BFFs 5ever!”

And you may be thinking “nah, Charles was the one who said you’re stuck with me,” and that is true, because Charles is the one who parlays connection into physical attachment. But Edwin is the one who declares them friends! “I sincerely wish we could have been friends for longer”!!!

My boy has very high standards but by the Endless when he sees someone who meets them he does not waste even an hour.

the reason sex scenes exist in fiction is because sometimes people have sex but also to find out what the characters are lying to everyone including themselves about by wrapping that agonising vulnerability in a treat like giving medicine to a dog

[valtsv]

you can also hold them down and force their jaws open so that they develop traumatic associations with treats if you want to and this is fine because they are not real
