i love that lila is showed in multiple swimsuits and elena is always wearing the same one... signora carracci and the porter's daughter... ever think about how book 2 is called story of a new name and it ends with lila abandoning the weight of stefano's surname while still remaining married to him on paper and elena writing a book, a book that carries her last name on it and therefore gifts it with a different kind of status. greco as a surname that appears on the cover of a book... now a new name altogether (or is it? is it completely?)

the story of a new name // l'amica geniale 4x07
#oughh this has been in my drafts for quite a long time because i wanted to say something deep™ in the tags#but of course i don't know what. or rather i *feel* but i don't know#something about both lenu & lila in their respective moment being like. in the midst of wreckage that nino left behind#and antonio & enzo being such a contrast to nino and truly caring about these women all the time#parallels#elena greco#lila cerullo#antonio cappuccio#enzo scanno#lenu x antonio#lila x enzo#s4 spoilers#do i still have to use this tag...

#EXACTLYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY!!!!!! disfigured by his insistence on staying the same!!!!!!!!#elena has always been in tune with this part of him i think and she is infinitely repelled by it#woman who wants to do everything but stay the same woman who wants to break free and run and a man whose greatest pride resides in being#exactly like his father. it comes down to the same thing. they are both obsessed with their parent's fate#they are both using their parent's fate as their starting point. rebelling against it and reflecting it are simply different techniques#but neither of them is themselves enough because of it neither of them can ever succeed in this completely#elena realises this and evolves. he never does. (via @lilacerull0)
he will literally die by never changing, never growing up. he's peter pan in a man's body. she has changed so many times he doesn't recognize her. it's fine

Children don’t know the meaning of yesterday, of the day before yesterday, or even of tomorrow, everything is this, now: the street is this, the doorway is this, the stairs are this, this is Mamma, this is Papa, this is the day, this the night.
