WHAT IF I JUST KILL MYSELF

S8 Ep6 || S3 Ep4 - LIKE FATHER, LIKE SON

inspired by @ambernotember's post

I fear no one is going to get this because it is a hungarian book we had to read in... I don't even know what grade. 3rd or 4th, maybe? It's called "A Pál utcai fiúk" ("The boys of Pál Street", written 1906), and it's about a group of kids who find a big, abandoned... field? I think? in the city of Budapest, on Pál street, and make it their own, and turn it into their HQ. They become friends, or more accurately, form a club, and have strict rules to follow. If I remember correctly, (I literally haven't read this book in seven years) there is also a rival club of boys, who they are trying to sabotage. I cannot for the life of me remember the plot, but I do know there was this one kid, young and scrawny and small, who was constantly trying to prove himself. Some things happened, which led the boys to believe he betrayed them, and was a traitor - not true, of course - and as punishment, they wrote his name into their rulebook with lowercase latters, the lowest and most humiliating thing a member of the club could be punished with, and they kicked him out. (Ah yeas, I remember, his name was Nemecsek I think!)

Meanwhile, however, in an earlier adventure, Nemecsek fell into a cold lake on a winter night, already a bit down with the cold. After he was kicked out, the boys ignore him completely, and shun their friend out - so they don't realise in time that the illness got serious. Nemecsek got pneumonia, i think, which at the time was incredibly dangerous, especially for a frail little boy like him.

Needless to say, he dies, with none of his friends there, his mother bawling on his chest, still believing his only friends hate him. When the boys hear about this, they are shook, of course, and immidiately forgive him and feel completely fucking horrible, but it's too little too late. They honor him by not only rewrite his name with the correct -capital letters, but by writing it in ALL capital letters.

I bawled my eyes out. I was such a little kid at the time, and i loved reading and getting invested in stories, and this fucking broke me. I finished the book at like 1 am one evening, which at the time was very late for little me, and my brother heard me literally sobbing and had to comfort me. First encounter with MCD. I didn't even think it was real. I just kept reading, because I was like "what do you mean? Books ALWAYS have a good ending please this has to be a joke - " it was not. Fucking. Broke me.

fuck it, i'm curious. reblog and tag with the first fictional death to ever rewrite your brain chemistry and/or make you cry like a baby. mine was ares from the underland chronicles (who, for context, was a giant bat.) to this day i will weep if i think too hard about it. okay, go.

Yeah same, this is exactly why i think they might make us wait until next season to actually get them together: there’s just (possibly) too much buildup to do in just half a season. But hey, if we get canon buddie im really not that picky about when :)

ok so not really criticism but a bit of concern: how will the show make it obvious to the audience that Eddie has feelings, is queer and this has been going on for a bit? Or how will they show it believably that he just realized all of that in his 30s?

Like to me it is so obvious, and they have been setting it up for at least half a season now. There are hints in the show (him being ultra monogamous & catholic about relationships and not having true chemistry/romantic feelings for most of his female partners, they're more of an obligation) and it makes so much sense to me that he's a repressed gay man, and the acting supports that. But it's harder to see/believe if you contrast that with Buck's realization who has been making googly eyes at everything and everyone, and is an open book, wears his heart on his sleeve. A casual audience will be able to go back and see it. They won't immediately see it when they look at Eddie, because the acting is way subtler and the queercoding more subtextual as of now, the queerness is in the narrative and possible feelings are explicitly labelled as a deep platonic bond between friends.

Which, in and of itself, no problem! There have been wilder revelations in film and tv with no textual buildup that have been very believable. It all hinges on how the show explains and shows it to the audience. I just don't know if I can trust this show to do a storyline like this justice? Like having someone have a multi-layered revelation and solve some of their emotional struggles within the span of a few episodes. Am I making sense? I love the characters and how they've been portrayed, but I might have grown overprotective of them. I just don't see yet how the show will do it in a believable way. It's one of the reasons I hope they let us steam a bit longer and go for it in the next season

If it makes you feel better I don’t watch the show either and I think of buddie as your ocs so whatever you say about them it’s real and true to me #gayeddie

HENRIETTA WILSON YOU ARE THE LOVE OF MY LIFE THANK YOU FOR SAYING EXACTLY WHAT I'D BEEN SCREAMING AT THE TV

Prompt:

Two neighbours who live in front of one another's house (and who have never spoken to each other beforehand) suddenly find themselves practicing their musical instruments, window open, at the exact same time, days after day, until they start making music together.

I am definitely not inspired by my brother's piano talent and my front neighbour's trumpet talent. They don't know each other, I don't even know her name, but I ship it.
