i would pay 1000 american dollars to see lindstrom’s face when olivia casually mentions she offered herself as a hostage
#only proper reaction is lighting a cigarette on the spot tbh#would take dr heather too but she’s only a year in and liv is definitely still mostly lying

finals (round 11)
THE TOP TWO MOMENTS IN THIS POLL WILL MOVE ON TO THE FINAL CHAMPIONSHIP ROUND NEXT WEEK!
descriptions under the cut
fault hallway -> did you really expect me to cause your death? what about your kids? what about me?
paternity hug -> elliot hugs olivia after she saves his wife and newborn child's life. mariska reacts + chris has opinions
ohio diner -> Kill a Man while Holding Hands
#fault is the thesis of eo#every other scene in this bracket circles back to this moment#it’s why we are all here#these two people who cannot help but choose each other no matter the cost#one could turn on the TV and watch this scene with no context of the show nor their relationship and still Get It#fault tells us: this is a love story#(polling)

semi finals (round 10)
descriptions under the cut (make sure to check out all 3 polls this week!)
The Kitchen -> Well.
ohio diner -> Kill a Man while Holding Hands
#my friends...#it's the kitchen#and frankly! it's not even that close!#i know the diner was a fun sexy time#and we are all still very bitter about dw being the absolute worst#but#this is a scene where a bruised olivia searched her own kitchen for a bag of sugar instead of looking an earnest elliot in the eyes#now tbh the scene could have ended right there and i would still be saying it wins this round#but THEN they nuzzled like predators in heat#and THEN she told him she wants to#did 50.5% of you forget all of this#(polling)

anyone have some recommendations for a nice chunky book i can lose myself in?
#thinking fiction#though i have a tough time with fantasy#but again and i can’t stress this enough the main goal is to mentally remove myself from current reality
